Episode 37: Chapter 196 - Landscape of the Demon Realm (3) is the one hundred and ninety-sixth chapter of Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint.
Summary[]
The young boy opens his eyes wide in shock, recognizing Kim Dokja as someone he bumped into earlier. Aileen Makerfield quickly accepts the astonishing amount of 50,000 coins. The demon nobles start to question Kim Dokja's identity, but are mislead to believe that Kim Dokja was high ranking demon noble from a different industrial complex. They decide its not worth getting entangled in such a matter and quickly collect the taxes and leave.
Aileen and the boy come to their senses and ask whether Kim Dokja was really a demon noble. He denies it, and instead reveals that he is an exile. He commissions Aileen to fix his body, knowing that she was a "Story Expert." Kim Dokja then undergoes an operation to stabilize his body before regaining consciousness in front of the young boy. They try to determine Kim Dokja's identity and settle on the fact that he has to be a returnee. In response, Kim Dokja makes numerous statements that perfectly describe the boy's life: that they were a returnee but didn't want to return, that they were frustrated from their lack of power and talent, and that they just decided to stay in one place and live an ordinary life. Eventually, Kim Dokja reveals the boy's real name as Jang Hayoung, and asks whether they are happy in the demon realm.
Kim Dokja recalls some of his comments for the Ways of Survival webnovel, asking to create a new dimensional mover character, that was preferably a pretty girl, and feels somewhat responsible for Jang Hayoung's existence. He recognizes that they actually have a lot of talent that they are unjust unaware of. While Jang Hayoung lingers in shock, Aileen appears with other members of the Syswitz Civil Council. Kim Dokja starts to make an offer. He says that Duke Syswitz is ambitious and asked Aileen to make giant soldiers, but she refused, which will soon result in the duke taking her by force. So, Kim Dokja says he would stop the duke for them. The others are startled by the copious amount of information he knows and ask for his identity. Because he doesn't want any constellation to recognize he was alive, he gives an alias, and says that was Yoo Joonghyuk, here to become the 'demon king' of the 73rd Demon Realm.
Somewhere far away, Yoo Joonghyuk gets a system message saying that his notoriety was spreading in the 73rd Demon Realm. Confused, he mutters to himself, "Kim Dokja?"
