Episode 35: Chapter 182 - The 73rd Demon King (1) is the one hundred and eighty-second chapter of Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint.
Summary[]
Now ejected from the Eater of Dreams, Kim Dokja quickly succumbs to his wounds from his stories being eaten, and dies. While he waits for his revival, he uses the third person Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint ability to check on his companions. He sees Jung Heewon learning how to use her new stigma Hell's Flame Ignition while sparing with Lee Hyunsung. At the same time, Shin Yoosung and Lee Gilyoung continue to learn how to control the Chimera Dragon, while Lee Jihye grumbles about her perceived weak sponsor. Additionally, he continues to see the fate message hoping for his death, despite having died. Eventually, when three days pass, Kim Dokja finally resurrects using the Eight Lives attribute.
Kim Dokja wakes up and kicks open the coffin he was placed in, to the cheers of nearby incarnations. He earns 90,000 coins from constellations, who likely want to make up for not helping him against the outer god. He earns the semi-mythic story, "One Who Killed an Outer God," and sees his Dark Castle ranking to be second.
Eventually, Yoo Joonghyuk meets up with Kim Dokja first, with the rest of his companions close by. Yoo Joonghyuk asks Kim Dokja for his purpose, and whether his final goal was to reach the end of all the scenarios. When Kim Dokja hesitatingly agrees, Yoo Joonghyuk makes him promise to never give up on that goal. Kim Dokja sees Yoo Joonghyuk's eyebrow twitching, which signals his making of a serious decision, but before Kim Dokja could read his mind, the party members arrive and Yoo Joonghyuk abruptly starts to announce the participants for the tenth main scenario.
