Chapter 663

-By the way, this sounds like a lie?

-I also think so.It feels like he is fishing right now.

-Honestly, it is strange to let us know.

-Isn’t the main scenario actually going to occur in the middle world?

Not everyone believed Hyeonu’s words. Some people thought Hyeonu was fishing—in other words, lying. They didn't think Hyeonu could provide such information.

“There are people who think I’m lying. It was clearly a mistake to say something about the main scenario. If you don’t believe it… There is nothing I can do about it. However, you will know in a few days that I’m not lying.”

Hyeonu tried to look as upset as possible. In fact, he did feel it was unfair. After all, he wasn’t lying.

-Really?

-Then it will be revealed before the next stream.

-But the epic item effect is a real jackpot.

-Even if I combine all my items together, it won’t match that one item??

The attention of the viewers shifted from the main scenario back to the epic item Hyeonu had obtained. Most viewers of the stream were excluded from the main scenario as their level was low. The thing that was close to them was Hyeonu’s item that they were looking at right now, not the main scenario that would soon start.

“Doesn’t it look good? I think so as well. I think it is better than most items,”Hyeonu sincerely expressed what he felt about Greedy Minister.

Hyeonu had several epic items, but Greedy Minister was special even among them. It wasn’t a common item; it was a special item like a mask. The headband was a very rare item.

“It will probably rise to an astronomical amount if I put it up at auction. It will be even higher if I pass on the secret to meet the wearer restrictions.”

The price would be different from the items sold so far.

There were many people who were crazy about good items.

“On top of that, it doesn’t overlap with any previously-worn item. This will have a huge impact on forming a higher price.”

It meant they could wear one more item simultaneously. This was the biggest advantage that everyone understood.

“So where did I obtain this item? It was from an instance dungeon in the demon world~. Where should you go if you want to get it? You have to come to the demon world~.”Hyeonu asked and then answered himself in a ridiculing tone.

The viewers who saw this thought that the demon world was a place where jackpots were hidden without their knowledge.

-You have to go to the demon world if you want a jackpot.

-I will go to the demon world when I reach the right level.

-Who will send you to the demon world for free?You can’t go without a guild.

-if you are at the level of going to the demon world, there will be a guild~

It was like the 20th century American dream. They were now dreaming of the Demon World dream.

‘Gather to the demon world, gather to the demon world.’

The city in the demon world that welcomed players was Etono. This was Hyeonu’s territory—the land of Hyeonu who didn’t even have to pay taxes.

Hyeonu gradually erased the smile on his face and resumed speaking: “This is the end of the meaningless talk. I’ve turned on the stream, so shouldn’t I start the content? Don’t you think so, everyone?”

-So what is the content today?

-The content today isn’t showing off your items?

-Do you want to show off other items?

-Why? Are there no other items to brag about?

The viewers heard Hyeonu’s words about content and realized that he had done nothing properly after turning on the stream. They just looked at one item's information for a few minutes.

“The content I prepared for today is about the main scenario that will start in a week… How can I just show a few of my items?”

Hyeonu laughed when he saw the accusations that filled the chat window. There was no reason not to laugh. A hot reaction was always welcome.

‘Unless they are personal attacks or fabrications.’

Such things couldn’t be endured. He had to deal with it decisively. Hyeonu could endure it, but it was unclear if other streamers could withstand it.

‘There is no guarantee that it will only happen here.’

In the meantime, various opinions started to appear in the chat window. It was unlike before when similar messages were usually sent.

-You are going to explain the main scenario?Hurry up and do it.

-I’m becoming dizzy, so hurry up and do it.

-What are you doing with that?Let’s just look at Alley Leader’s items.

-Yes, we can’t do the main scenario anyway. It is better to look at the item information.

-Why look at the item information?Isn’t it just the large guilds that will benefit?They are trying to figure out the weaknesses and skills of Alley Leader.Those guys…

Various opinions soon provoked conflict.

Hyeonu mediated between the viewers the moment he felt it. This was also a necessary skill to stream well. “Why did the chat window suddenly become divided? Show a unified opinion. Type '1' if you are curious about the main scenario. Type '2' in the chat window if you are curious about my items.”

The moment Hyeonu’s words were over, two numbers filled the chat window.

-1.

-22222222.

-1111111111111.

-22222222222222.

-11111111111111.

It was boiling over. Neither side was pushed or got ahead. However, Hyeonu had already decided what to pick from the beginning.

‘It is number 1.’

The purpose of today’s streaming was publicity. This was why he released information about the epic item and attracted more people’s attention. Now that he had gathered enough people, he moved toward his original purpose, which was to promote the main scenario. This was what would attract more players to the demon world. Hyeonu was naturally obliged to provide the viewers with information about the main scenario.

‘This way, my pyramid scheme will grow bigger.’

“There are a few more number ones in the chat window, so in accordance with the rule of majority wins, I will release the information about the main scenario that will start in one week. You don’t have any complaints, right? If you have any, tell me. I’ll release the information through a video to be uploaded later.”

He turned the words around, but in the end, he forcibly ended it. Hyeonu’s chat window regained tranquility. It was a rare sight that was only seen from time to time. Hyeonu often used the forced exit function previously to get his way.

“Then I will explain the main scenario. Are you all ready to listen? You can’t record videos, but I’ll allow you to memorize it. Everyone, memorize it.”

Hyeonu started explaining it in a playful manner. It was about the enormity of the main scenario.

“As you know, this main scenario will happen in the demon world.”

-We know because you said it yourself a little while ago.

-This is amnesia.

-What will happen in the demon world?

-Based on the way people are coming to the demon world, is it perhaps…?

“People with quick wits have noticed it already. That’s right. This main scenario is a war—a war between humans and the demon world.”

-A war?

-Really?Is this real?

-What main scenario is this?The demon world should be invading the middle world.

-That’s right?????? Humans were going to beat up demons.

The viewers were amused by Hyeonu’s words. The main scenario in Arena was different from that of other virtual reality games. Normally, the middle world was the target of invasion, and players were always defending. Then what about this time? On the contrary, humans were invading the demon world and provoking a war of conquest.

“Are you surprised? I was also surprised. War in the demon world—does this make sense?”

-Crazy. This is the level of scenarios in Arena ?????

-It is clear that the developers are on drugs.

-How can we invade the demon world?????

The viewers laughed cheerfully. The reversal of the story was pretty good. Arena was clearly different from other games, and this was its charm.

“That is why I ran around like a dog. The emperor wants to start a war. How can I stop him? Doesn’t everyone know it? The boss at the company said, ‘Let’s have a dinner later.’ Someone will have to book the restaurant and choose a menu. Yes? By the way, I did it all by myself. It was really hard.”

Hyeonu made a lot of fuss. Actually, it wasn’t that hard, and it was all done because Hyeonu wanted to do it. He even proposed the war and postponed it. Then he increased the preparations for the war.

-Ah, so you did it alone this time as well?

-Are you saying that others just watched?

-It is hard to do it alone.You should divide it up a little bit.

-If you share it, the pain is halved and the happiness is doubled.

The viewers accepted Hyeonu’s words as a whine —like grumblings about food from a person who was full. It was hard to hear him complain about the main scenario when other people couldn’t even see it despite being so eager and desperate. It was ridiculous.

“I want to do that as well. It's just that… they have to be at the right level for me to divide it. What is the main scenario for those who are still struggling in Etono? This main scenario requires you to have the ability to leave Etono and freely travel to and from other cities.”

Hyeonu laughed deeply as he gave the bitter criticism directed at those who had started to gather in Etono.

-Some guilds don’t seem to have the intention of leaving Etono.

-They are still playing at the stronghold?It isn’t an area that is cramped.????

-The frogs in the well can’t even taste the main scenario.? ? ?

The viewers were familiar with it as the large guilds didn’t avoid streaming. Rather, most of them did it systematically like they were a broadcasting station. They streamed 24 hours a day at the guild level. Naturally, there were hunting streams among them. Rather, the hunts were a large proportion of them.

The demon world was still unknown to most people, so it was good material for attracting attention. Thus, viewers couldn’t help but see how the big guilds moved. It was obvious that their exploration and developments were progressing sluggishly.

“That is their choice, so I won’t say anything. Then let’s go back to what we were talking about, and I'll explain the main scenario again… This war will only be led by adventurers, i.e. players. There are very few NPCs participating in the war.”

It was a shocking announcement—a main scenario without NPCs. This was a completely different pattern from before.

-Won’t the main scenario fail without NPCs?The demon world is different from before.

-Even those kids who don’t leave Etono?

-I think the number of players there is small…There are around 2,000-3,000 people?

The viewers expressed concern over Hyeonu’s words. The powerful NPCs in Arena still outnumbered the powerful players. The absence of NPCs meant that the quest was difficult and the likelihood of failure had increased.

“However, even if all the players participating in the main scenario combine together, they won’t be as good as these few NPCS. The NPCs are very strong.”

Hyeonu knew the concerns of the viewers, but they were groundless. The emperor and Lebron—just the two of them were already a ‘match for 1,000 enemies’.

“So if you want to dig a spoon into the main scenario, please come to the demon world quickly. The remaining time is one week, one week.”

Hyeonu raised his hands and stuck up precisely seven of his fingers.
