Chapter 780

“This is Taeyang, the capital of the Yuxin Empire. You are all used to it, right?”

Hyeonu traveled to Taeyang. This was because the place Hyeonu needed to go was in Taeyang.

“Why did I come here...? Are they in Taeyang? It isn’t like that. This Taeyang is the capital of the Yuxin Empire. What will be here?”

Hyeonu’s words pointed to one place.

-There is the imperial palace.

-There is also the emperor.

-Perhaps?

The viewers were able to guess the name of the place that Hyeonu was talking about—the imperial palace of the Yuxin Empire.

“I guess you don’t know why I brought the different species to the edge of the East Continent.”

-Come to think of it.

-Alley Leader’s home is the West Continent.

-Doesn’t he know the emperor of the East Continent?

-I think we’ve met him before...

“That’s right. I’ve shown it on the live stream before. Of course, the sound was turned off. Today, I am going to meet the emperor of the Yuxin Empire. You won’t hear the conversation on the live stream. It will be edited later and uploaded to the Alley Leader A-World channel.”

Hyeonu was naturally planning to only show viewers his face-to-face meeting with the old emperor. He didn’t intend to share the conversation.

‘It is a secret.’

It wasn’t necessary to tell everyone exactly what status Hyeonu had. It was only necessary to show that he could meet the emperor in person. This way, people would feel a sense of mystery about him and be somewhat in awe.

“Come in. I would appreciate it if you can bear a moment of silence. I’m going to show you many good things today.”

Hyeonu made a heart with his fingers to the viewers. Then he grinned and entered the imperial palace.

“Your Majesty, can I come in?”

To be precise, he entered the emperor's palace where the emperor was located. Starting with this moment, he changed the setting so that no sound would be sent to the live stream.

“Come in.” The tightly closed door opened and revealed the appearance of the old emperor.

“I am embarrassed because I might’ve come to see you too soon.” Hyeonu smiled and greeted the old emperor.

“Isn’t it good to meet often? You might move over here if you get attached.” The old emperor smiled kindly.

Hyeonu answer was silence with a smile. He had never thought about this.

‘I would only move to the Yuxin Empire if I were crazy.’

Hyeonu was the one who directly experienced the leaking of information from the East Continent in a matter of hours. He knew the difference between the two empires and didn’t say such things, even if they were empty words.

‘I should start talking about it.’

Hyeonu’s smiling face hardened little by little.

“Your Majesty, did you hear that there were adventurers who ambushed the different species?” Hyeonu started talking to the old emperor in earnest.

“I heard that something bad happened. There were more than one or two dead elves.” The old emperor shook his head with a sad expression.

“I need Your Majesty’s help.”

“Help?”

“I want you to issue a kill order.”

“Does a kill order mean anything to adventurers?” The old emperor cocked his head.

For adventurers, a kill order meant nothing. They would survive even if they were killed. It was a waste of power to chase and kill them.

“It isn’t a one-off thing but a permanent kill order... Wouldn’t that change the story? The sword will be held by the same adventurers. There will be plenty of people who will jump in like moths to the flames even if the reward is small.” Hyeonu offered a simple answer.

It was players who hunted players best. The level of strength that NPC soldiers had was useless against players. The fights between players were purely a strength fight.

“I’ll provide the rewards. Your Majesty, I just need to borrow your name.”

If Hyeonu were working alone, he would have to squeeze his brain to see who he had to reward and how much. However, if the emperor played a role in it, then Hyeonu could borrow the form of the quest given by the system. It was several times more comfortable.

“The more I see you, the more I want you. I like you.” The old emperor burst out laughing as he looked at Hyeonu. “You should have this much of a fierce heart if you are a man. You taught me something good, so I’ll help you this time. However, you must remember something. I’m doing you a favor right now.”

The old emperor really liked Hyeonu’s method. It took many things to get to the top. One of the most important things was dignity. They had to be dignified at all costs, whether it came to personality or fear. This way, they could stand in a position where everyone looked up to them. In that sense, Hyeonu was excellent.

“My motto is to give and take. I return as much as I receive. It doesn’t matter if it is a favor or hostility.”

Hyeonu exited the imperial palace with the support of the old emperor.

***

The moment he exited the imperial palace of the Yuxin Empire, Hyeonu used the return scroll to move to Linakalu. If it had been the West Continent, it would’ve ended with asking the emperor, but this was the East Continent. There were two suns.

‘Next is Chen Long.’

Hyeonu first bought three deliciously cooked chicken skewers on the street. He gave two to Tang-E and ate one himself.

“The emperor of the Yuxin Empire will issue a kill order against the Lu Kuan Guild. A quest will be released soon, so please participate. You will get a decent reward.’

-Haha ho ho, he laughs and blows up a guild right away.

-What is that request?

-It is a level that asks the emperor of the East Continent to issue a kill order right away...

-Is Lu Kuan about to disband?

-They need to delete their characters, not disband. Players will be going around hunting them. They won’t be able to go into cities.

The viewers believed Hyeonu’s words. Hyeonu seemed infinitely casual, but he wasn’t the type to tell lies in this way. It was a fact that everyone who had watched Hyeonu’s Livestream knew.

“As you know, there are two NPCs that dominate the East Continent. Is there anyone who doesn’t know this?”

-One is the emperor, and the other is?

-The other one must be the master of Southern Star.

-Leader of the Samsungga?

-Master of the Gucheon Secret Department?

The viewers all said different names, but they were all names for the same person.

“That’s right. I’m on the way to meet that NPC. I am going to make it really impossible for them to take a single step on the East Continent.”

-It is vicious, vicious.

-Lu Kuan is based in the East Continent, so he came here. They will be kicked out right away.

-The connections they have built up will be meaningless, right? Even if they try to seek help from a noble, it is the emperor who gave the kill order, right?

-It is meaningless to have connections to the Gucheon Secret Department, right? Now Alley Leader is hitting that part as well?

The viewers admired Hyeonu’s splendid connections. They weren’t usually aware of it, but Hyeonu showed off his splendid connections every time there was an opportunity to do so. They were connections that no other player could show.

“I won’t turn off the sound this time because I don’t think it is polite to the viewers,” Hyeonu said while walking toward the Gucheon Secret Department.

-It is an excellent choice.

-Alley Leader, I respect your choice.

-Good choices bring good results!

-King of Communication Gang Hyeonu has gifted you 777 gold coins.

The viewers warmly welcomed Hyeonu’s decision. It was good to see it with his eyes, but it was better to add sound. This would be on A-World in a few days, but there was a difference between watching videos and watching it live.

Hyeonu communicated with the viewers while walking inside the Gucheon Secret Department. No one noticed that Hyeonu was there because he was walking through the air, not on the ground. Hyeonu arrived at the shabby house where he had previously met with Chen Long. He took out alcohol and meat from his inventory and started cooking. A pleasant sound came out as the red meat touched the stone slab.

-Is this a food show area or Arena streaming?

-What is he doing all of a sudden?

-Ah, I’m suddenly hungry.

-Turn on the signal when doing something.

The viewers were taken aback by Hyeonu’s sudden action. It was understandable since the man who said he was going to meet the master of the Gucheon Secret Department suddenly started cooking meat. However, Hyeonu’s action clearly worked. The door of the wooden house opened, and a man with a disheveled appearance showed up.

“It isn’t good to eat something like this often...” The haggard-looking man showed completely different actions from his words. He opened the lid of the bottle and poured it into the glass like he was pouring it into his mouth. Then he grabbed a piece of cooked meat and ate it.

“Aren’t your words and actions different? I think you are eating too quickly…?” Hyeonu looked at Chen Long with narrowed eyes. It was ridiculous. Chen Long ate meat and drank alcohol without stopping for a single moment.

“If my standards go up... it is true that it isn’t always good. I can’t eat these things every day, right?” Chen Long answered while putting a lot of meat in his mouth.

Chen Long spoke again when he was somewhat full, “Did you come to me because of those adventurers? The ones who attacked the different species?”

“That’s right. I’ve already been to Taeyang. I’m here to ask you to issue a kill order.” Hyeonu brought up his reason for coming here.

“A kill order... It seems you want to move the adventurers rather than making us go out on our own. No?”

Unlike the emperor, Chen Long immediately noticed the meaning of Hyeonu’s words.

“That’s right. I’ll give you everything you need to move the adventurers.” Hyeonu nodded and confirmed it.

“What are you going to give to the old man?”

“A favor.”

“Really? Then I’ll do you a favor. Think of it as the price for what I ate today. Come to see me occasionally. I’ll do it for you as long as it isn’t a bad request.” Chen Long got up and walked back toward the wooden house.

“It is with good drinks and food?” Hyeonu asked as he watched Chen Long’s back.

“Isn’t it natural to have food to eat? Come back again.” Chen Long waved his hand, opened the door of the wooden house, and entered it.

“Did you see? It is over in the East Continent. Isn’t it so easy? Isolating a guild.” Hyeonu smiled at the viewers.

In just two meetings, the Lu Kuan Guild lost all its power in the East Continent. At the same time, they gained vast enemies. They became the prey of the rankers who coveted the favors of the Yuxin Empire and the Gucheon Secret Department, as well as the rewards they promised.

-Breaking news, breaking news!

-Breaking news?

-Don’t spread weird things.

-Focus on the live stream.

A few viewers suddenly started filling the chat window with the words ‘breaking news’. These words drew the attention of the viewers, and Hyeonu’s gaze also shifted.

‘Breaking news? What happened?’

“Breaking news? Did something happen? Is it something interesting?” Hyeonu asked with eyes that shone at the incidents that kept occurring.

-There is a kill order on the Lu Kuan Guild.

“Of course. I met up with the emperor.”

-I mean the West Continent, not the East Continent.

“Huh?” Hyeonu’s eyes grew so wide that they couldn’t become any bigger.
