 When I looked up, Jung Heewon was shaking her head, still holding my wrist.

 Jung Heewon's eyes were filled with determination. She had already sensed what I was thinking.

 "It's Master."
 As if responding to Jung Heewon's words, the tree spewed out a story.
 <&>「"Will you become my disciple? Then take this sword."」
 Jung Heewon grabbed the sword. In her trembling grip, the swordplay of Mikazuchi Munechika trembled.
 A blade sharpened, imbued with the power of D-Coins.
 Jung Heewon turned on me with the blade that had protected me until now.

 I looked up at the tree. I gazed at the branches that stretched out toward the sky, their ends seemingly endless.

 Undoubtedly, the history of the Breaking the Sky Sword Saint was imbued within this tree. But can we truly say that the very collection of histories constitutes that very existence?
-Her soul had blossomed completely into fear, and she was no longer here.

 With a feeling of dizziness, the stories she had experienced jumbled together in my ears.
 Some knowledge is hell.
 The forest, humans, Murim, her disciple, Yoo Joonghyuk.

 Perhaps my brother had already anticipated this moment.

 My brother was speaking. The end we seek after such a gruesome struggle is nothing more than a giant tree.
 <&>「Can you cut this time?」
 There lay the history of Breaking the Sky Sword Saint's fight to protect her disciple.
 The Master's struggle to lighten his burden, even if she couldn't return with her disciple.

 But even that help had its limits. At some point, her disciple's growth surpassed her own capabilities. Breaking the Sky Sword Saint ultimately realized that what she could offer him wasn't her talent or her martial arts prowess.

 It was her spirit.
 A will that would not break no matter how many times it was shattered.
-Even amidst human persecution, she never knelt, but looked up to the heavens, and ultimately challenged the authority of the constellations.

 What percentage of Kim Dokjas must gather to become a complete Kim Dokja?
 I don't know the answer. Breaking the Sky Sword Saint likely didn't know either.
 <&>「"I will die again. The things that are precious to you will leave you time and time again."」
 Instead, Breaking the Sky Sword Saint silently counted the years her disciple had lived.
 <&>「"Don't lose your smile. Don't forget the taste of Murim dumplings."」
 My brother must have read this story before me.

 This story must have made him sad, despair, and sigh.
 <&>「"In those moments when the pressure is too much and you crumble, it's okay to give up. It's okay to put aside what's precious to you for a moment, to throw everything away and run away.
