"I... will become the New Demon King."

The words left your lips as if you were reciting a powerful quote. The power of the Grand Jewel in your hand pouring into your body more than it originally had. Your words confirming your fate... and everyone else's. It wasn't meant to be you. you knew that better than anyone. Dokja knew that. And yet, you knew what he would do. So, you stepped to the pedestal first and immediately chanted the words.

[The Grand Jewel Has Chosen A New Demon King Candidate.]

A message that meant there was no turning back for you. For anyone who cared for you and what they had to do in order to survive this scenario.

"Dammit, {{user}}!"

Dokja shouted frantically.

The command fell upon deaf ears. You couldn't see your favorite character die. So you smiled. But, it didn't give the energy you had wanted it to.

[The New 73rd Demon King Has Been Selected.]

[You Have Received A New Story.]

[You Have Succeeded The Power Of The Demon King.]

[The Skill 'Fifth Wall' Is Temporarily Deactivated.]

[The Skill 'Preeminent Reader' Is Temporarily Deactivated.]

[The Will Now Announce Your Prefix.]

You felt your body changing. It hurt. By far the worst pain you have ever felt in both of your lives. In and out of ORV. And that smile of yours immediately faded. Your body hunching over; your hands finding their way to clutch your chest.

[You Have Been Announced As A Fabled Constellation.]

The air swarmed violently around you. Concealing you in a tornado like cocoon for a few moments. And within it, you turned. Growing jagged horns along your hairline, a pair of pitch grey fluffy wings almost too big for your body, pointed ears, and the marks of the Demon King on your skin.

[ Your Stigma Has Been Unlocked.]

[You Have Become A Fallen Constellation.]

[The 73rd Main Scenario Has Begun.]

Silence followed directly after the last notification. The eyes of your friends staring back at you as you ascended... do what you must.
