The Return Of The Genius Ranker Of All Times [EN]: Chapter 252

252.

The one who broke the chilling silence was the Calamity.

More precisely, a spear that burst through the jaws of the Calamity.

The spear soon transformed into a massive shield, and as its surface area widened, a huge mouth opened, revealing a man.

“Damn, that was nasty. Being sealed with my mouth shut like that.”

“……Kaiser!”

The man wearing a black mask was Kaiser.

The users were gaping at his figure, shaking and shuddering as if he felt disgusted after escaping from the jaws, when—

Ting-

[Successfully sealed the Great Calamity.]

[Fulfilled the long-cherished wish of the Forgotten King, saving his soul.]

[Cleared the World Quest.]

[Changes occur in the strategy ranking.]

[World Quest Strategy Ranking]

-1st place: Kaiser

-2nd place: Astr

-3rd place: Empress

-4th place: Swordsaint

-5th place: Arthur

…….

[Differential rewards are given to everyone who attempted the strategy, in proportion to the ranking.]

The messages popped up simultaneously, greeting them, and then:

“K, Kaiser finished the World Quest!!!”

“Waaaaaaaah!!”

“Holy crap! This is insane!!”

“Kaiser, he’s really a god!!”

“I’m joining the Kaisin Church from today!! Ahhhh!!!”

Soon, a thunderous roar shook the tomb.

While they were screaming, wailing, and running around in amazement, something tapped Dohyun on the shoulder.

-I believed in you, Master.

-Lizariza.

-I knew you could do it. I’m just proud of you, my lord.

The Guardian members had approached him before he even realized it.

And behind them were his colleagues, smiling slyly.

As he was listening to the Guardians’ fuss, the Empress, who had slowly approached, held out her fist with her unique ferocious smile.

“Good job, you bastard.”

“You too, you punk.”

Dohyun chuckled at the woman’s voice that didn’t suit her and bumped his fist against hers.

Thud.

The chats exploded as their fists connected.

-Keu…… This is what romance is all about.

-Cleared? My heart is pounding, for real.

-So the Empress is Gguggudak Gguggu, and the Swordsaint is Sword Emperor? Then Astr is… that pervert?

-The day will come when we see Kaiser’s party again.

-Kaiser’s party from 1st to 4th place lololol

-He does everything lol

-Kaiser Punch! Kaiser Punch! Kaiser Punch! Kaiser Punch!

-Empress, take me—!!!

-Swordsaint! Swordsaint! Swordsaint!

The audience, which had already exceeded 190 million, was going wild.

It was only natural, as he had confidently cleared the World Quest that they had given up on, considering it impossible.

Roar- Crack-

Saaa-

Dohyun, wearing a satisfied smile, raised his head and looked at the sky.

As the message said, the disaster that had filled the tomb was disappearing.

The burning buildings and the dead were scattering like a mirage, and the sky that had been shrouded in darkness cleared up.

Dohyun lowered his head again, watching the pleasant moonlight descend.

Waaaaaaaah-!!!

Dohyun raised the corners of his lips as he looked at the users who were shouting loudly.

‘Not bad.’

It was a successful first raid for Kaiser’s party.

And at this moment, there was someone who was happier than anyone else about clearing the World Quest.

Thump!

“Uwaaa! Kaiser!! He’s a god! A god!!!! Uwaaa!! Thank you. My God!!”

It was Harrington, who threw away his chair, stood up, and shouted while jumping up and down.

Unlimited gratitude and faith could be seen in him as he shed tears of emotion and prayed to the sky.

‘……What am I looking at?’

The executive and butler, who happened to be trying to open the door, stared blankly at the sight that looked like madness at first glance.

His master seemed very unfamiliar today.

Squeak-

The butler, who had been moving his lips, quietly closed the door.

Cold sweat dripped down his back.

‘……I didn’t see anything. Nothing.’

It was the moment when the timber of a zealous believer of the Kaisin Church was sprouting.

* * *

The God of the Century community is now in an uproar.

It wasn’t just the community.

From the real-time search terms on the green window [a popular Korean search engine, similar to Google] to the headlines on various portal sites.

[Successfully completed the World Quest with unprecedented difficulty!]

[Top 10 guilds and high rankers collapse helplessly in the face of the unprecedented World Quest.]

[Kaiser, a hero in troubled times?]

[Kaiser’s party defeats the Calamity!]

[What were the pasts of the Empress, Swordsaint, and Astr?]

[The two, who are also considered ideal types for male players, used to be active as men in the past… In particular, Astr’s fashion has been revealed to be very difficult, causing a great stir…]

From the strategy of the World Quest to the return of Kaiser’s party.

Since it was an unprecedented World Quest in many ways, there were bound to be many stories to tell.

The most popular of these was the story of Kaiser’s party.

-Wow. So the rumors that once circulated among them are true.

-That pretty face was inside that dignified swordsman? Legend.

-I’m most shocked by Astr. That purple-obsessed panty monster was Astr.

-That’s why they’re young. That’s what romance is. Latte [slang for older generation] is a symbol of high-level players!

-Ah, you’re an old man lololol

-No, suddenly Astr is so likable lololololol

-I thought he was from a chaebol [Korean conglomerate] family, but he was just an uncle who liked games lololol He was the only one panting when he was raiding the Calamity.

As their hidden past was revealed, the comments were filled with laughter.

But Kaiser still accounted for the largest portion.

-Who am I? Kaiser’s national property!

-May God protect us!

-All the naysayers who said Kaiser wouldn’t be able to do anything in the World Quest have disappeared, right? Were they all wrong? Is Kaiser a god?

-The class that immediately recaptures 1st place in the World Quest, kiya~

He had a lot of fans and haters, and there were many suspicious eyes because he hadn’t grown up much yet.

In the midst of all this, it was only natural that he finished the World Quest in first place.

-No, but how did you catch it? I don’t think it’s weaker than the top 10 guilds.

-If you see it in person, you won’t say that. Parrying the Orbit of Light as if it were natural… I was breathless for real… So cool.

-In fact, if it weren’t for the Orbit of Light pattern, the top 10 guilds would have captured it long ago. The Orbit of Light pattern is so unbalanced that it’s no exaggeration to say that it was destroyed because of that one pattern.

-What about Kaiser, who cut it off so easily?

-Kaiser? He’s a god.

-Kaiser! Take off your mask! We want to see your face too!

-Gal!!!! How dare you!! How dare you try to face the face of God!!!!

-Ah, ah……!

-No, I’m more curious about how he caught the king. When will he upload the video?

It was the moment when Kaiser proved his class once again.

“Kaiser is said to have played a key role in the World Quest strategy. How was this possible?”

“We have invited Dr. Choi, a combat analysis expert…”

“Ah, yes. If you look at this scene, Kaiser is parrying, right? This timing is actually impossible. Even if you know it, you can’t do it, but maybe you can time it based on excellent dynamic visual acuity and distance control…”

“…I see. So the key is timing?”

“Yes. There are many people who think Kaiser is just physically superior, but I think his greatest strength lies in this. He is truly a genius of timing.”

And the news spread widely, beyond the Internet and into public broadcasting.

Many people watched and analyzed the battle scenes of Kaiser’s party and were impressed.

[Parrying? You can do it too!]

[An untimely parrying craze. Cries of grief echo among users…]

[The Reincarnation of Kaiser, the Troll Maker?]

[How does Kaiser parry? Research on parrying continues with unprecedented pattern cutting…]

Naturally, articles and content about him were derived, and quite naturally, people began to imitate him.

-Oh, damn, I’m pissed off because of the guys who are copying Kaiser.

-They did that with Dem Locke, and it’s starting again.

-No, Kaiser can do it because he’s a god, so why do you keep trying to copy God?

-Don’t accept swordsmen into the party for the time being. These guys are intelligent, so they pretend to be good and die using parrying at important moments. ㅅㅂ [Korean slang for “f*ck”]

-No, how many minutes has it been since the broadcast spread;; You’re so damn fast only at times like this. It’s frustrating, really.

Comments full of wailing and swearing were representing the current situation in real time.

The Great Parrying Era had begun.

Even if this is the case in reality, there is no way that the users in God of the Century would not hear the news.

It also reached the ears of the top 10 guilds, and that was no exception for Myeolsal in the New World.

“The World Quest has been cleared… I’m sure it was said to be impossible?”

“…Yes, Master.”

“He made it possible even though Arthur failed… He’s getting stronger faster than I thought. I should have participated if I had known this would happen.”

“Wasn’t it just luck? Exaggeration tends to be involved in things like this.”

Myeolsal, who had been sweeping up the Cyclops, put his sword away.

Then, the five swords that were floating above him came down on their own and neatly entered the scabbards on his waist and back.

“Luck…….”

Myeolsal smiled as he pondered the secretary’s words.

“There’s no word that doesn’t suit him as much as that.”

“……Yes?”

“There is such a thing. Is there anything else to talk about?”

Myeolsal, who had turned his back, asked abruptly, and the secretary answered as if he had suddenly remembered something.

“They want to hold a meeting.”

“A meeting?”

“Yes. They want to be able to meet as soon as possible.”

Myeolsal, who was about to proceed with the Hidden Piece as soon as possible if it wasn’t a big deal, paused.

The meeting that will come out here is only the meeting where the top 10 guilds gather.

It was often held to discuss something important, but Myeolsal’s expression became strange.

“That’s unusual.”

It was because they were busy and their relationship wasn’t very good, so it hadn’t been held for the past six months.

But soon he smiled as if he knew.

What is the reason for holding a meeting at this time?

It’s because Kaiser did what they couldn’t do, so they’re getting impatient.

“They want Master to participate… What should we do?”

“I don’t have anything to do, so take care of it yourself.”

“…Are you sure? This is the third time you’ve refused.”

“Hidden Pieces are more important than the time spent complaining about that. And… do I have a reason to listen to them?”

“…No. I’ll cut it off on my end.”

Myeolsal nodded appropriately and ended the answer before moving on.

How long had he walked?

Myeolsal’s pace slowed down and stopped when he was quite far from the secretary.

Myeolsal’s eyes sparkled with interest as he slowly looked north.

‘Those heavy-assed guys are making such a fuss… There’s no day without wind in this place either, Kaiser.’

Unfortunately, he couldn’t meet him this time, but there will be another chance next time.

Myeolsal was looking forward to the day he would meet him.

* * *

Meanwhile, before the world became noisy.

While Dohyun was still reminiscing in the Forgotten Tomb and looking at the sky.

The Swordsaint, who had a serious face for some reason, approached and spoke.

“Kaiser.”

“Hmm?”

“You’re using strange swordsmanship that I haven’t seen before.”

A calm voice that is pleasant to hear.

It was so different from the dignified Dem Locke that it felt foreign, but his unique way of speaking was still the same.

When their eyes met, the Swordsaint stretched out his scabbard and drew a faint line at the corner of his mouth.

“Let’s have a sparring match. It’s been a while.”

Okay.
