No one was born evil nor good, that is no excuse but, it changes the way you see someone. In the end, the decisions we make are what we are. But—the position we chose are who we are. Kim Namwoon from the 999th turn is a lonely, cold-blooded survivor that wants to be acknowledged.

When I thought about it, the reason why I hated Kim Nam-Woon was pretty simple in nature.
“Yu Jung-Hyeok always took you in as his comrade.”
Out of everyone from the ‘Ways of Survival’, Kim Nam-Woon most closely resembled me.
“Even though he knew that you are an evil bastard, even though he knew that you did evil things… Even then, he took you in.”
What would happen if such a high schooler was thrust all alone in an extreme environment where he couldn’t survive without taking the life of another, and no one was there to protect him?
“At first, I thought that Yu Jung-Hyeok was thinking of practical benefits. Because, you as an Incarnation held a high potential, that’s why. But when I thought some more about it, there were other people with just as much potential as you. Even then, Yu Jung-Hyeok always accepted you as his comrade every single regression turn.”
“….When I think about it again now, maybe it was not Yu Jung-Hyeok chasing after practical benefits, but me.”
From when I started reading the ‘Ways of Survival’, Yu Jung-Hyeok’s age remained ’28’ years old. He was an adult back then, and even now, too. Maybe he had already known the truth – that life was an accumulation of one’s choices, that those countless choices piled up to eventually become a Fable worth a single person.
That no one was designed to be ‘evil’ from his birth.
