Ranker's Return

Chapter 788

[You have been confirmed to be a guardian of the empire.]

[The ‘Eternal Hell’ will be released.]’

Hyeonu opened the eyes that he had closed.

‘Okay, this is the end.’

Thousands of people were lying on the ground around Hyeonu. The last remaining traces of the Luos Empire in the divine world were released.

“Erwan, how long will it take to get ready for departure?” Hyeonu asked Erwan, who was staggering to his feet.

“I think it is possible in 10 minutes.”

Erwan quickly corrected his posture and looked around. Everyone was waking up. Not a single person fainted and fell to the ground again. There might be a difference in speed, but everyone was sober.

‘This is definitely the highest level.’

The demon world and middle world—the average skill was better than the descendants of the Luos Empire he met at the other two sites. This was evidence from the speed in which they regained consciousness after Eternal Hell was removed.

“Really? Can you complete the preparations to move to the north in 10 minutes?”

Hyeonu raised his chin slightly and pretended to look around.

“It is possible. We always thought this day would come. Everyone will be ready in no time.”

Erwan’s expression remained unchanged. He was full of trust in his companions. The others started to live up to Erwan’s trust. In an instant, columns were arranged behind Erwan.

“Are you ready?” Erwan turned around and asked.

“It’s done!!!” the descendants of the Luos Empire answered in one voice. Their vigor was like a spear. It was sharp. The was sharp enough to piece any enemies that appeared in an instant.

‘Good.’

Hyeonu smiled with satisfaction. If this was the case, he didn’t think they would drag at his ankle.

‘I have to use this atmosphere.’

"It might be a bit tough. You might die. Is it still okay?” this time, Hyeonu asked the descendants of the Luos Empire.

“It is fine, Guardian!” a loud reply came back.

“Okay, I’ll be at the vanguard. Follow me. Let’s join forces and break through the divine world. We will head back to the middle world.”

Hyeonu vigorously extended his fist toward the sky.

Waaaah!

Cries burst out. The momentum seemed to pierce the sky.

This was the beginning of traveling across the divine world.

***

[An emergency has occurred so Alley Leader Academy is postponed.]

Hyeonu’s livestream still attracted the attention of viewers with its provocative title.

-Wasn’t today Jamie Moore’s public execution?

-It is too bad. I can’t see that good thing.

-I was wondering who today’s special instructor was...

The viewers initially responded with regret, but it was only for a moment. Viewers focused on the emergency situation that Hyeonu was talking about.

-By the way, what about the emergency?

-Is it worse than last time?

-There is nowhere for an incident to break out, right? It is just normal.

-The demon world is doing well and so are the different species. It is fine.

No one knew exactly what the emergency was about. No one was making any plausible guesses. It was because the current Arena was in a state of lull. There were no topics for users to argue about. The league hadn’t opened yet and there was no noticeable conflict in the game. Of course, there was no new content.

-What can it be?

-I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

-By the way, how can people drive incidents like this?

-He is a living, breathing troublemaker. ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

At the same time, they couldn’t hide their surprise at the behavior of Hyeonu, who drove incidents without a break. Meanwhile, the black screen started to show vibrant colors. “Hello, everyone. I am Alley Leader.”

Hyeonu appeared wearing a child’s mask.

-Alley Leader, hi.

-Hello.

-It has been too long?

-I will make a request for you to stream five times a week.

The viewers and Hyeonu greeted each other cheerfully.

“I’ll start with an apology. Today, an unexpected problem caused the cancellation of Alley Leader Academy. I ask for your understanding.”

Hyeonu bowed deeply at the waist. It was a natural action to take since he was unable to proceed with the content he had told in advance.

-By the way, what happened?

-What happened to make the content monster, Alley Leader, be unable to proceed with the content?

-Perhaps he can’t afford to move? It is a time-limited quest.

-I will admit it if this is the case. What can we do if there is a time limit?

The viewers easily accepted Hyeonu’s apology. In the beginning, they didn’t want an apology. No matter what content Hyeonu was doing, the most important thing for viewers was to livestream it. It was okay to do anything as long as it wasn’t missing.

“It is similar. It isn’t a quest with a time limit, but... there is definitely a time limit. I haven’t been able to log out for a whole day now.”

Hyeonu shook his head. This was true. Hyeonu had been in Arena for around 20 hours now. He couldn’t log out.

‘Until we cross the divine world...’

Even now, he barely had time to turn on the livestream. He couldn’t afford it.

-All day?

-Did he stay focused during that time?

-I’m dizzy after 10 hours.

-I would be out of my mind. Really.

The viewers were astonished. It was not easy to play Arena for a whole day. It was possible if they simply lay down to rest, eat, etc., but they didn’t think Hyeonu would do that. They thought he would be doing something, whether it was hunting or quests.

“That’s right. It isn’t easy. I’m doing a very hard job right now. Let’s look at it together.”

Hyeonu turned his head. There was also a change to the screen that viewers saw.

-Huh? Is it a forest?

-Another forest?

-No, he is a forest lover. Does he like walking in forests?

-Where is this place? Is it the place with the different species?

Forests might usually be similar, but there were differences in their own way. The size of the tree or the difference in the leaves. How dense the trees were or the appearance of the surrounding land. There were many differences. However, the forest Hyeonu was showing now had a new feeling. It was definitely different from what they had seen so far.

“Ah, this isn’t the place with the different species. It is called the divine world. It is a place similar to the demon world.”

-Huh? The divine world?

-A place similar to the demon world?

-Does this mean the god tribe appears here?

-No, he is playing the game on his own again. Do it together. Let’s go together.

-You don’t know ‘in moderation.’ Huhu...

The viewers burst out laughing. The divine world. They didn’t know what type of place this was. Rather than being certain through concrete information, they intuitively knew it. The name alone made them feel like it was the opposite of the demon world.

“That’s right. It is a similar place to the demon world. I’m working on a mission here right now. It isn’t a quest. It is to evacuate humans hiding in the divine world to the middle world. The starting point is the southern part of the divine world and our goal is the northern part of the divine world. I don’t know where I am or how far I have to go. We will just keep going until we see familiar land.”

Hyeonu said shocking things without hesitation. The viewers heard this and were even more agitated.

-Crossing the divine world?

-No, what is going on all of a sudden?

-The divine world alone is amazing. Taking people from there?

-I think he has done this type of journey in the middle world before?

-Wasn’t there a similar thing in the demon world?

-He even moved with the different species. Is he a specialist in large-scale migrations?

Some of the viewers felt that Hyeonu’s words were familiar. They remembered seeing the scene that Hyeonu mentioned before.

“This time, it is hard to compare it to before. Still, I thought about the viewers and turned on the livestream. A lot of communication might not be possible. Even so, the divine world is such a place. I hope you keep watching.”

Hyeonu declared war from the very beginning. It might be difficult to see the chat. He said it this way, but it actually had a different meaning.

-Is this the mindset of turning off the chat window altogether?

-Yes. He won’t look at it at all. He is telling us not to protest.

-As expected, his personality is different.

-It is so unique that there is no alternative to this livestream. It is a pity, but we have to be patient.

The viewers also passed over it. It was something they had become accustomed to. He turned off the chat window occasionally, so they had to get used to it. It would make no difference if they argued. There was no feedback at all. The protests went in one ear and out the other. As such things were repeated, the viewers gave up first. They realized that when speaking to a wall, the only thing they got back was echoes.

“Guardian! It is time to set off again!” As Hyeonu and the viewers were having a brief conversation, a figure approached Hyeonu.

“I understand, Erwan. Let’s go now.”

The identity of the person who appeared was Erwan. Compared to the first time he met Hyeonu, he looked so haggard that it was hard to believe he was the same person. His neatly tied hair was loosened back and forth and scattered sporadically. There were also more than one or two dents in the armor he was wearing.

“What about the others? Are there many wounded?” Hyeonu asked as he walked after Erwan.

“Thanks to Guardian, there are no deaths. No one is injured due to the potions you gave.”

Erwan’s voice was bright. He was very excited about the outcome that was different from their previous crossing of the divine world. A few days of movement and more than a dozen battles. Even so, there were no casualties. It was because Hyeonu showed overwhelming power and killed the gods and the god tribe.

“I’m really glad. The fact that someone like you is our guardian...”

“No, anyone could do this, even if it wasn’t me.”

“There is no way. There can’t be many people in the empire like the guardian.” Erwan shook his head as he walked in the front. His face couldn’t be seen but it wasn’t hard to tell what type of expression he would be making.

“I will take it as a compliment,” Hyeonu smiled and spoke humbly.

Kang!

‘Huh? What is this sound?’

It happened at this moment...

A sharp metallic sound was heard in Hyeonu’s ears. It was a sound that occurred when metal collided with each other.

“Erwan, run.” Hyeonu surpassed Erwan in an instant and ran forward.

“Huh? What is going on?”

Erwan ran after Hyeonu without understanding.

-What? Why is he running?

-Is this a secret camera? Why is it like this?

-In fact, he is cheating NPCs. Lol.

-He should explain while running. Instead, he is running alone.

The viewers were also unaware of the situation.

“I heard some sounds over there. Maybe the divine creatures have come,” Hyeonu relayed his speculation about the sound he heard to Erwan and sped up even further. In Erwan’s eyes, Hyeonu’s appearance quickly became a dot and disappeared.

“An attack...?”

Erwan also understood the situation and ran much faster than before.

***

Hyeonu reached the epicenter of the sound in an instant. It was already pandemonium. The trees were burned and the ground was turned upside down. Broken debris was scattered all over the place. Meanwhile, the thousands of descendants of the Luos Empire were fighting against the divine creatures and god tribe.

Hyeonu quickly pulled out the Mysterious Sky Sword and swung it. The purple pure energy released from the Mysterious Sky Sword saved the descendants of the Luos Empire who were in danger after being attacked.

“Thank you, Guardian!”

“No, everyone, take a formation and move behind me!”

Hyeonu moved toward the battlefield. Then a corner of his lips curved up.

[Kill any living thing in the divine world 2,453/10,000.]

‘It is so convenient that they came by themselves.’

A battle with the living things of the divine world—it was what Hyeonu wanted the most right now.
