Part 16.
-Where are the explorers who called Kaiser a bubble?
-What? You can’t acknowledge Kaiser? Who do they think they are? How dare they even mention acknowledgment to a god.
-I can’t even tell if you’re a Kaisin follower or not anymore. Everyone’s just a hardcore fanboy.
-How can we deny that we are all Kaisin followers?
-Recruiting party members to beat up explorers who left bad comments (1 / 9999)
└Me!
└Me me me!
└http//linstar……. SNS [Social Networking Service] coordinates of the guys who left bad comments. Scroll down for the NewTube channel too.
└Oh, thanks. I’m on my way.
Now, the explorers who used to sneer are getting backlash, and Kaiser has become a meme symbolizing a god.
The explorers who were sarcastic were getting reverse-attacked and eventually had to go into hiding because of all the hate comments on various SNS.
This happened in less than 4 hours after the explorers’ rebellion.
And when the explorers were facing a backlash and everyone was shouting “God Kaiser.”
The main character of the buzz, Do Hyun, was…….
“Ugh…… that was tough.”
He was stretching in bed at 11 p.m.
“It was a fulfilling day.”
He found a secret dungeon while doing a hidden quest, caught an intruder, and got clues about a different race.
He still doesn’t know what it showed, but he got some unusual information.
Not only that.
Before accidentally entering the secret dungeon, he even cleared the hidden quest he was originally doing, ‘The Path Found by Jakub.’
‘It wasn’t as big of a deal as I thought…….’
The final quest grade ended up being Hero rank.
It was just a quest to find the path and tell Jakub what was there, and the reward was just a lot of Adventure Points?
Marty was happy, saying it was a huge reward and that quests that give Adventure Points as rewards are rare, but…….
‘Is that so?’
It wasn’t a big deal for Do Hyun.
Thanks to that, he caught up enough to close the gap with 9th place, but he didn’t really care about that.
Unless they give different rewards like the graduation quest.
‘The graduation quest is the real deal.’
Do Hyun smiled and recalled the graduation quest he received after reaching level 100.
[Completion of the Apostle]
-Grade: Trial 5
-Description: You who are trying to graduate from the center of the main continent, the ‘Arnis Empire.’
The final trial encompasses all the achievements you have demonstrated within the Arnis Empire.
Regardless of the field, the path and experience you have walked will complete you.
Proof is shown and measured by how much envy you have garnered, and the rank of the reward is determined accordingly.
-Clear Condition: Reach level 100
-Reward upon Completion: Differentiated by rank. (D~S rank)
-Time Limit: None.
The Empire’s graduation quest wasn’t much of a trial.
That’s because it’s automatically cleared when you reach level 100.
From the moment you reach the maximum level, the continent recognizes the user as a full-fledged apostle.
Therefore, there were the most diverse elements to score, and the biggest gap was the Empire’s graduation quest…….
[Checking achievements in the Empire.]
[The Lion King’s test is over, the World Quest is open, Field Boss defeated x341, Destruction of the 4th Legion Commander x1, Defense of the Empire City’s destruction, Black Knight Garion defeated, Inheritor of the Forgotten King’s Swordsmanship, Hidden Piece confirmed… etc. Scores are measured in consideration of.]
[Updated S rank with 13,541 points.]
[The maximum rank of Trial 5 is S rank, so a higher rank cannot be assigned. Get enhanced rewards.]
[Ranked 1st.]
[There has been a change in the ranking of Trial 5.]
[The effect of the King of Time Attack’s throne is activated. All stats increase by +5.]
[S rank reward is given.]
…….
[Recorded in the Book of Adventures.]
‘Crazy…….’
That was a huge boon for Do Hyun.
He ended the Lion King’s test, opened the World Quest, sealed the demons of the abyss, received recognition from the Sword Emperor, and became a hero who saved the Empire by catching the Black Knight Garion.
Even the moment he reached level 100, he was finding traces of different races in a secret dungeon.
He had such eventful days in the Empire that he earned crazy points.
‘Keu…… High risk, high return is the rule.’
It felt like all the hardships were being rewarded.
Do Hyun smiled as he recalled the thrill, and then he stroked his chin as he thought of the reward that suddenly came to mind.
‘The reward was unexpected.’
It was a reward in a completely unexpected direction.
It was somewhat different from the rewards he had received from the graduation quest, but if he was asked whether it was good or bad, it was definitely the former.
He just wondered if there would be a situation to use it right now.
‘Well, the time will come when I need it.’
As it has always been.
Even if it doesn’t seem like he’ll use it right now, there will be a day when he needs it if he has it.
Do Hyun smiled and lay down on the bed.
He felt good wrapped in the soft mattress and cozy blanket.
-Kaiser! Kaiser! Kaiser! Kaiser!
-I’m joining Kaisinism as of today. I don’t accept any objections.
-Kaiser is a god. Now, everyone, memorize it.
-Kaiser is a god! Kaiser is a god! Kaiser is a god!
-Explorer? Why are you looking for that? I can just find it myself.
-The control is art, really.
-All black with wings is so cool. The final boss force is crazy, really cool.
-Why are today’s videos so fun ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Did you hire an editor? It’s a new style, but it’s so fun.
‘The reaction is definitely good.’
Do Hyun, who was lying on his side and touching his smartphone, was newly impressed.
Even if he looks back at it now, the video quality was considerable.
It wasn’t self-praise. Marty edited today’s videos, not Do Hyun.
‘Marty, you had talent.’
It was entirely Marty’s idea to entrust the editing to Marty.
After clearing the dungeon, Marty, whose eyes suddenly turned white, suddenly declared that he could not dare to upload such a great video to his channel.
At first, he was embarrassed and tried to stop him, but he stubbornly refused, which made him feel embarrassed, but Marty suggested with sparkling eyes in response to Do Hyun’s reaction.
-Can I touch today’s video? It’s my lifelong wish.
-……Edit?
-Yes.
-I don’t care, but shouldn’t I be paying you for that?
-No. Fan spirit…… No, I feel like I’ve received too much today without doing anything, increasing the number of viewers and getting rewards. I think I’ll feel better if I do this.
It was somewhat true, and he spoke so firmly that he entrusted it to him…….
To be honest, he didn’t know he would edit this well.
He was proud of being good at editing to some extent, but this was a real editing master.
Details make luxury.
Marty’s editing feels like the dignity of a craftsman who cares about every single detail.
Would Do Hyun know that it was not craftsmanship, but the fan spirit of a zealous believer(?).
‘Should I ask him to edit in the future? Hmm, or should I learn it since I was getting into editing?’
Do Hyun, who of course had no way of knowing, just fell asleep worrying about his comfortable situation.
* * *
And at that time.
Kaiser’s news was reaching not only on the Internet but also in reality, and to users who had logged into God’s Era…….
“Oh? Did you see this?”
“……Are you talking about that guy named Kaiser?”
Deep in Elanis.
Above a cliff so high that it is full of fog.
Two men who were lighting a bonfire and resting in a place where no one would ever set foot were no exception.
“You know without me saying it? Were you watching?”
“I went into the gallery and saw it. I don’t know about anything else, but he seems to have no rivals in finding paths.”
“There’s a lot of talk about a new adventure king appearing. Are you going to become obsolete now? Are you going to return the adventure king title?”
To the words of the black-haired Korean youth who was checking the condition of the meat being grilled over the bonfire, a muscular Westerner with a bare upper body and no intact spots smiled and replied.
“Anytime. If such a talented person appears, it would be natural to hand it over.”
“Is that okay?”
“I just enjoy the adventure itself. I’m not interested in titles. But…… I’ll have to see for myself if he’s qualified.”
“You said you didn’t care about the title? Why are your words different?”
“It’s just that it doesn’t mean anything to me, but that doesn’t mean I’ll hand it over to just anyone, does it?”
“What kind of nonsense is that? You’re such a weirdo.”
The muscular Westerner laughed in disbelief at the words of the young man who calmly took the meat out of the bonfire.
“I don’t think you’re the one to say that.”
“Me? Why me?”
“What kind of person eats only insect legs…… So, what does the famous Ragmund’s leg taste like?”
At those words, the young man who was tearing off the well-cooked meat…….
To be exact, the leg meat of an insect larger than a human head tasted it for a while and shrugged his shoulders.
“It’s less disgusting than I thought? I was curious because the rumors were so grand, but the last Dranmantis was more tasteless. There was no meat on the legs, only a strange liquid, and the smell was very…….”
“……I don’t want to hear that far.”
“Don’t do that, try a bite. It’s hard at first, but it’s a delicacy with a variety of flavors.”
“More than that, what have you been doing since a while ago?”
When he naturally changed the subject because he didn’t want to listen anymore, the black-haired young man answered while still fixing his eyes on the air.
“Oh, I’m writing down some good spots in the new continent.”
“……You’re a strange one too. I don’t know what’s so great about that good spot that you’re always looking for it.”
“People with good luck like you don’t know. You always say ‘Lucky Vicky’ because you’re always lucky, but people like me have to find lucky spots ourselves.”
“Lucky Vicky…… What is that?”
“There is such a thing.”
The young man who shrugged his shoulders exclaimed as if he suddenly remembered something and continued.
“And there’s a very active enthusiastic member these days.”
“Didn’t you say you’re going to stop paying attention because it’s going well on its own now?”
“I don’t know. I was going to, but a member who joined half a year ago is doing a great job. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen an honorary member who is so sincere about good spots and card draws…….”
The young man’s face filled with joy and he smiled.
“I’m going to meet him soon if I get a chance. I think we’ll get along well.”
“Are you not interested in Kaiser?”
“You, who are ranked 1st in the Book of Adventures, should care about that. I’m not very interested in that anyway. I’m more curious about this.”
“I see.”
The muscular Westerner…….
The adventure king Barion got up from his seat as if he was tired of the story and it was over, and the black-haired young man didn’t care much.
He was used to seeing him suddenly go to sleep like that.
“Hmm, this is a real good spot…… I think he’ll like it if I tell him, but will that guy hate it?”
Then, the young man who glanced down at the bottom of the cliff shrugged his shoulders.
“Well, it doesn’t matter since you can’t come anyway.”
The young man who muttered that and tore off Granmantis’s leg.
The only person the adventure king Barion trusts, and Korea’s proud ‘Foot Eater’ trait holder.
At the same time, he is the mysterious chairman who has never revealed his identity since the founding of the Gacha Gallery.
That was the moment Rak became interested in Do Hyun.
