Summary[]
Kim Dokja's punch lands on an unmoved Yoo Joonghyuk. Kim Dokja spots the gray aura surrounding Yoo Joonghyuk's body, and seeing the Theatre Dungeon's master Simulation behind him, realizes that Yoo Joonghyuk has been mind-controlled. Yoo Joonghyuk moves to attack Kim Dokja, landing an almost-incapacitating attack on him. Kim Dokja frantically recalls what he knows of Yoo Joonghyuk's 8th regression, where Yoo Joonghyuk fell in a similar manner. As Kim Dokja recovers from the blow, Jung Heewon moves to attack him from the other side. While she holds his attention, Kim Dokja uses [Character List] on Yoo Joonghyuk and realizes that he has awoken his second stigma, [Transmission], resulting in his monstrous strength.
Lee Jihye comes running upstairs to find Yoo Joonghyuk, but is attacked by him instead and barely dodges. Kim Dokja yells that Yoo Joonghyuk is being controlled by Simulation, and Lee Jihye joins Jung Heewon in launching a synchronized attack. He manages to knock them back, and Jung Heewon tries to activate [Hour of Judgement]. Lee Gilyoung attacks Yoo Joonghyuk with his hammer's thunder skill to draw Yoo Joonghyuk's attention. As Yoo Joonghyuk turns. Kim Dokja quickly instructs Lee Gilyoung to call his insects, then drinks the contents of the T-Rex DNA ampoule. His stats shoot up, surpassing even Yoo Joonghyuk's, and Kim Dokja launches forward to meet Yoo Joonghyuk in a sword fight.
Kim Dokja realizes that despite his high stats, he is even now getting pushed back, and activates [Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint] to read Yoo Joonghyuk's thoughts. He becomes enraged and worried upon realizing that Yoo Joonghyuk has fallen into a depression at the thought of the unending regressions yet to come, and starts yelling at him, trying to snap him out of the depression by reminding him he's only regressed a few times so far. Yoo Joonghyuk's thoughts turn to his loneliness as the only one who remembers and will remember his regressions, and Kim Dokja challenges him further, naming the family, loved ones, and other allies Yoo Joonghyuk lived and died for. Kim Dokja remembers his own strife-filled experiences, and how Yoo Joonghyuk's story kept him company through them all. As Kim Dokja becomes strained he realizes that Yoo Joonghyuk has regained some consciousness, noticing Kim Dokja and wondering who he is.[1]
