Thankyou for writing this really appreciated it
I noticed that too. i am not sure if that's a continuity error or purposely being put out out there to indicate that it might be a future glimpse on what's the situation will be if yellow dragon follow him back to his world instead of being in his dream.
all right, so because I was as confused as many of you are, I went back and read through this again. still a little confused because I think the author is purposefully leading out some details to be revealed later, but here's the gist:
the story plot seems to revolve mainly around reincarnation. yellow dragon is a god who was created by a royal family sacrificing one of their twin princes to a serpent - that prince being Yooshin. so yellow dragon is essentially his own being as well as Yooshin tied into one. Yellow Dragon/Yooshin have thus been used as 'a puppet by the royal family for 100s of years'.
I'm frankly not sure how Dojin first entered Yooguk? but he's been reincarnated ~27 times. when Dojin dies, Yellow Dragon takes the hit instead, and puts them both into a deep slumber to recover. that's how Dojin 'goes back to his world'. I'm not sure if his world has ever actually been 'real', at least not that we've been shown thus far. I'm guessing when he's reincarnated into Yooguk, he's just exiting his dream.
The main villain thus far is a sorceress that is trying to 'reclaim her rightful position' as the god of Yooguk. Since Yellow Dragon was able to become a god by the royal family striking a deal with a 'witch', I personally think that the sorceress is the same 'witch'. but that's just a theory.
the whole story starts with us catching a glimpse of Yellow Dragon (I think more Yooshin, since the other character is calling him 'hyung'?') killing what seems to be the royal family, proclaiming them to be 'demons'. I think that was Yooshin's brother, emperor Yoosung (who seems to have supposed to have been the sacrifice, but Yooshin offered himself up instead), who's mentioned a few times not to be a good person. I'm sure that's pretty important and will get touched on a lot more down the line.
Yellow Dragon is getting a lot weaker after turning back time so many times. I'm guessing that has something to do with why he's 'off'. this chapter is kind of all over the place but after re-reading I think it's just trying to get across that Yellow Dragon is currently not so pure of heart, and that Dojin is in danger because of it. I'm not sure who that was supposed to be with rat? Looked like Yellow Dragon with tiny ears!
I hope it doesn't end in tragedy lol :( I'm attached.
also something funny I noticed: in the beginning, Dojin says he's 24 years old. Later in his first 'dream', he says that Yooshin in his dream is '28 years old, 6 years older than me'. continuity error!!!
