"Past lives, couldn't ever hold me down lost love, is sweeter when it's finally found~!
I've got the strangest feeling! This is not our first time around~!
Past lives, couldn't ever come between us~! Sometimes, the dreams finally wake up!
Don't wake me~! I'm not dreamin!
Don't wake me~! I'm not dreamin!"
As Ken finally killed off the final person who was attacking him. The only thing he could think of was how the fight was ruining his vocals for the song.
With the lights from the last day, what came was none other than humans who were taken outside of the Seoul dome. Most obviously because the number of people inside it had started to become too low.
And along with that, the most important and unnerving thing was the appearance of an incarnation. The incarnation called… 'Nirvana Moebius.'
With his appearance, there was a major change in the entire Seoul dome. With his strength and his abilities, he quickly gained many followers and became the strongest, basically.
But not just that, but the other problem was more appearances of other prophets.
Prophets, they are not literal ones. But actually just a group of people who read a few chapters of the original TWSA, which is why they know quite a bit of things about the scenarios.
And with them, Nirvana got more information about the scenarios of the Seoul dome, and some other things.
But there was an even bigger problem. Which was that, the bald king from before had been defeated by Nirvana. And from what Ken knows, he was supposed to go after the king of wanderers. A.K.A. Lee Sookyung, the mother of Kim Dokja.
There were just multiple problems coming in like there was no end to it. He also heard something from Jin Miwon not long ago, Yoo Sangah had been captured by Nirvana just a while back.
"Ugh… I feel like this bastard is going to put a hell ton of pain on me… why was I such a sadist to my own characters?... Ha.. I kind of regret it now."
He tried to peacefully complete the seventh scenario and get the biggest contribution. But he was having a really hard time against the tier four monsters.
They were basically just some tier fives, which had become tier four somehow. So, they would be the weakest of the weakest among tier four. Which is why, even with some major issues, Ken could deal with two of them.
One with an ambush. And the other through a direct confrontation, where he nearly died. But the bigger problem was that they had a few other tier five species who are of the same species as them, under them.
Raking his fingers back through the hair, he jumped on top of a building, sitting on the edge.

Since the stat limit set by the scenario increased, he also maxed it out anyway.
As he looked at the starry night sky, all he could see was countless stars in the sky. To the point that people literally didn't need any sort of light source even during the night.
He didn't know what the time was, but he was pretty sure it was past midnight. But the worrisome thing he could see, even from extremely far away. It was the view of multiple buildings burning.
It was extremely far away, which was why it was not that obvious, but he was sure that a fight had taken place there.
From his knowledge, there was only one person who could make white flames and burn buildings like nothing.
"It's Jung Heewon…" He muttered to himself. But the thing that was worrying him was the thought of the person she was fighting.
The obvious guess that came in his mind was none other than Nirvana Moebius. Since there was only Nirvana, who was going around defeating powerful figures.
Even worse was that Ken found out that there was another incarnation the constellation of the neutral king took in after Ken killed him before he became a king himself.
That new guy joined Nirvana Moebius by his own will. The supporting constellation and his abilities were not that strong in themselves, but the problem was their functions.
The stigma is called fair fight. It was the main problem. It didn't have any offensive, or defensive, nor even survival type abilities.
The only thing it could do was make a barrier for two designated targets. And that was exactly what Nirvana was using. He would make that guy use it before a fight, so that no one could interfere. Then, he would defeat that person.
From the looks of it, he also had the way of the wind. But it didn't seem like he had that many offensive skills. Yeah, sure, his stats were high, but he was not that good in offensive capabilities.
But the problem is exactly that his offensive capabilities are weak. Instead, he increased his mental attacks to an extreme degree, which is why they were extremely strong.
As the intensity of the fight from far away slowly died down. Ken could feel what was coming for him.
Nirvana's main offense is the mental attacks. And that is exactly what Ken is weak against. Especially with the mental toll of regeneration and the things he has gone through after the scenario.
After most of Seoul's main forces had been defeated, Nirvana's next target would be… 'Me.'
—***—
Ken didn't really know if it was because Nirvana needed time to find him, simply because Ken wouldn't sit around in one place for long. But he actually took a longer time to find Ken than Ken himself expected.
And the moment Nirvana arrived. All Ken could think about him was that… 'He is too weird.'
Nirvana was indeed a weird person. Well, anyone would become weird after going through countless reincarnations. But Nirvana was just on a whole another level.
As Nirvana arrived, with a massive amount of followers behind his back. He started to have a conversation with Ken.
And all Nirvana would keep saying is things like living in the present. Forgetting the past just because it is gone and not worrying about the future since it's yet to come and what not.
But the thing Nirvana was trying to do was obvious. He was trying to recruit Ken. But when Ken didn't want to join hands with him, Nirvana only said one thing.
"What a poor sentient being you are." With a hint of condescension.
Just then, Nirvana rushed towards Ken at an extremely fast rate. It was obvious as to what he was using. He was using the way of the wind.
The only thing Ken could guess on how Nirvana got it, was that he was an Imyuntar in one of his past lives. But the problem was that Nirvana seemed to have the higher level on the way of the wind.
As he closed his distance with Ken and used something, a weird white tentacle like light reached Ken's forehead.
[Thought infection (lvl 9) is trying to infect your mind.]
[Mental barrier (lvl 4) tries to resist Thought infection (lvl 9).]
[Mental barrier (lvl 4) has failed to resist Thought infection (lvl 9).]
[Thought infection (lvl 9) has started to infect your mind.]
Just as this skill reached Ken, he started feeling all his bottled up desires and emotions start to come out at an extremely fast rate.
It was as if he himself wanted to do them. On the other hand, Nirvana was telling Ken to just accept today as his main motto and that Nirvana would help him gain whatever the things he had desired.
But even as Ken tried to resist it to no avail. Nirvana would only say that it is built on Ken's own emotions and desires.
'Emotions and… desires… right…'

[Reader's POV (Stage 2) has been deactivated.]
When Ken opened his eyes, all he could see was a mildly surprised Nirvana. Who seemed like he didn't expect Ken to resist all his desires, even through the impulsivity of his ADHD.
Although, he didn't really know that the way Ken resisted it was by not resisting at all, but instead, simply removing all of them for a certain period of time using the reader's pov stage two.
