      In the 1863rd round, after dokja is gone and everything, 1863rd round hsy and everyone reach till the end. they can't go beyond cause they don't have the last key. so dokkaebi king and hsy make this one deal secretly that they go back and meet young kim dokja. because her going back is not wholely her, she is switched on only when it is night. so as time goes on the 1863 faded away into the 3rd's memories. that's why she keeps on being two and one repeatedly

And in order to not get busted (if u read the novel, you'll know why, as it is part of the condition), he turn himself as a murim dumpling as disguised (so people won't get suspicious or anything) and even change Kim Dokja's appearance (with an amount of probability, don't ask how much, coz I forgot).

Splendid character growth and plot buildup to the climax with sprinklings of info that makes sense when you reread it a second time. The book also took extra care to make the reader feel immersed and a vital part of the story. 10/10. @@beth8589
