Episode 2: Chapter 7 - Protagonist (1) is the seventh chapter of Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint.
Summary[]
After the end of the first scenario, the survivors of carriage 3807 look outside at the carnage that has befallen Seoul. The system informs everyone that compensation is delayed due to a scenario check; Kim Dokja assumes it is due to his killing of Kim Namwoon. Kim Dokja picks up Kim Namwoon's discarded knife.
Yoo Sangah, calls out to Kim Dokja. He apologizes for not saving the old lady, thinking about how many people will die in the future. The dokkaebi then appears in the carriage, startled at the events in the carriage and happy at the high number of subscribers to his channel. He comments on the surprising nature of the people in carriage 3807, as well as the "nutter" in the next carriage, before pulling up the list of survivors, which includes Kim Dokja and Yoo Sangah, as well as Lee Hyunsung, Han Myungoh, and Lee Gilyoung. Kim Dokja calls out to Lee Gilyoung and offers to team up with him.
Han Myungoh calls out to the dokkaebi, asking if they will be released. The dokkaebi chuckles, asking if he wants to go outside, where they had earlier spotted monsters roaming. He then offers compensation for the scenario they completed, naming the sponsorship of the constellations as their prize.
Yoo Sangah calls out to Kim Dokja, asking for his advice on the two options that appeared before her; Kim Dokja claims he cannot help, focusing on his own options: Abyssal Black Flame Dragon, Demon-like Judge of Fire, Secretive Plotter, and Prisoner of the Golden Headband. He thinks through each option, identifying the modifiers from his memories of Ways of Survival. Kim Dokja does not recognize the modifier Secretive Plotter from Ways of Survival.[1]
