Chapter 847

“There is something the viewers need to think about as well.”

Hyeonu drew out a special move that he prepared to convince the people who still didn’t understand well.

“No matter what anyone says, this is the most turbulent time for Arena. If you relax for even a day, it is normal for you to be eliminated. Maintaining the number of viewers and maintaining the number of video views in World… It is all hard to do.”

He spoke sharply about the reality of Arena. Everyone rushed to succeed, but not everyone could succeed. Even if they were lucky enough to succeed, it would only be a one-off unless it was accompanied by constant effort.

-To be precise, it wasn’t until Alley Leader appeared in Arena.

-Originally, it was a relaxed process. Then suddenly, the scenarios and people are all in a hurry.

-Still, I like that they are in a hurry. There are many things to see every day. The guilds who are somewhat known and the hunting grounds don’t overlap at all.

-It is good. These days, there are no fights over hunting grounds unless they are rankers.

The viewers focused on different parts of Hyeonu’s words. A public opinion that differed completely from Hyeonu’s intentions was formed in the chat room.

‘Is the hunting ground more important when you’re actually playing?’

Hyeonu hadn’t expected this reaction at all. He hadn’t expected it to be this hot.

‘However, I am receiving a lot of compliments. It’s good.’

Nevertheless, it didn’t feel too bad. More than half the chat window was talking about Hyeonu.

“All viewers, please listen to me. The compliments are good, but... If you are going to listen to me, shouldn’t you listen again?”

Hyeonu smiled as he continued the conversation.

-Compliment? Who is giving compliments?

-Here he goes again.

-Surrender yourself quickly. Who complimented him?

-Who raised him up? It is to someone who is already standing up tall.

The temperature of the chat room dropped dramatically when the main topic moved to Hyeonu in an instant.

“I will reorganize it. Everyone, are the actions of the Venom Guild a crime?”

-That isn’t it.

-It isn’t a bad thing. Obviously not.

-So why the swearing in the meantime?

-I didn’t do that.

“Then should their actions be pointed at morally?”

-Is this even unclear? It isn’t a moral problem.

-From this point of view, the problem started with the kids who moved to the East Continent in the first place.

-It is as Alley Leader said. The kids who committed themselves to a different species are a worse problem.

-It isn’t something to talk about in the first place.

Hyeonu smiled when he saw the chat window following him with one voice as if there had been communication beforehand. “Then you just have to support them. Then you can see more diverse content.” 

Hyeonu’s story didn’t end there. There were more words that followed.

“I also want to offer some options for those who want to grow their channel to a bigger size.”

Hyeonu raised his right hand and put up his index finger.

“First, push the Northern War. As a derivative of this, it would be a good option to immerse yourself in the undead army like the Venom Guild.”

The first thing Hyeonu suggested was for them to take the same path as the Venom Guild. Otherwise, he recommended creating a conflict with the Venom Guild. It would become another story that could attract live stream viewers and World subscribers.

Hyeonu raised his middle finger and explained the second method: “There is a second method. As everyone knows, unidentified monsters have appeared in the southern part of the East Continent. Just like how you are fighting with the undead army in the north, you can fight against the monster army in the south. Then people who are interested will flock there.”

-By the way, who are they?

-It is said that not a single one was killed? Originally, the people over there had a lower level. They didn’t even have time to breathe and were pushed.

-Based on the look on his face, he seems to know?

-Tell us if you know. I am curious.

The viewers got a strange feeling from Hyeonu’s words. Something that couldn’t be expressed in words—this was the nuance he gave off. They thought that Hyeonu knew the identity of the monster army.

“Their identity is the god tribe of the divine world. They are showing their ambition to occupy the middle world.” Hyeonu revealed the identity of the monster army as the viewers wished. It was the army of the god tribe. However, he hid the reason why they invaded the Yuxin Empire.

‘Why should I tell them that?’

There was no reason for him to tell them. It was unnecessary information.

“Originally, the demon world should’ve invaded in this way, but who am I? I’m Alley Leader. I first went to the demon world and stopped the war. The battlefield was changed to the demon world, not the middle world,” Hyeonu boasted.

It was skillful self-praise.

-Uhh... 

-I didn’t expect it to go this way.

-No matter what he says, he always puts in a spoonful of pride.

-It is a real talent to do that, a real talent.

-It is sadder because it is an irrefutable fact.

The viewers trembled at Hyeonu’s sudden show of pride. It was really unexpected timing. There was pride mixed in even when simply revealing the identity of the monster army.

“The battlefield in the East Continent will be a great opportunity. It isn’t simply a battlefield against the god tribe. The different species will also participate in the war. People who want to check their species are welcome to participate.”

Hyeonu added all types of rhetoric. It was only then that others would plunge into the battlefield of the East Continent on his behalf.

‘I’m busy.’

Hyeonu was busy. Very much so.

A small growl came from Tang-E’s stomach. Callioraks heard this and frowned. Then he turned his head toward Hyeonu.

“What are you doing? Didn’t you say you were hungry?” Callioraks shot sharply at Hyeonu, who was standing still in the distance.

“Yes, I understand Callioraks.” Hyeonu prepared the meal with a bitter smile on his face. He took out a plate of meat from his inventory and inserted iron skewers in them. Then he wandered around to find firewood. Hyeonu’s fist pierced a huge beautiful tree, neatly splitting it apart. Once more than a dozen pieces came out, Hyeonu grabbed three or four of them and returned to where Callioraks and Tang-E were.

“Wait a minute, and I’ll prepare it soon.”

Hyeonu once again split one of the pieces of wood he brought with him and made it suitable for kindling.

“Tang-E, set a fire,” Hyeonu spoke carefully to Tang-E, who was in the midst of practicing his magic power usage with Callioraks.

“Understood, Master dude.” Tang-E extinguished the purple magic power at his fingertips and set fire to the wood that was piled up in front of Hyeonu.

“Do you understand a little bit now?” Callioraks asked Tang-E carefully. It was a question filled with affection. Tang-E nodded while silently making eye contact with Callioraks.

“Yes, that’s fine. It is enough for now. No one will be able to touch it easily.” Callioraks stroked Tang-E’s head.

“It is ready, Callioraks.” Hyeonu finished preparing the meal and called out to Callioraks and Tang-E. Tang-E came down from Callioraks arms and walked out with a large bounce toward Hyeonu’s grilled skewers.

“Did the ra tribe attack the middle world?” Callioraks spoke to Hyeonu without paying attention to the meat.

Hyeonu lowered the skewer he had brought to his mouth and answered, “Yes, it is said that Edward attracted the ra tribe.”

“It is an obvious thing. It must’ve come from there. That idiot would’ve thought hard behind my back.” Callioraks hadn’t seen Edward and Luke’s meeting, but he read the situation as if he had seen it.

“That’s right. It is said that Luke, the god of the ra tribe, approached Edward. It seems that Edward paid Luke some type of price and dragged him into a war to prevent the power from being concentrated on his side.” Hyeonu confided to Callioraks everything he knew.

He had no reason to hide it from Callioraks.

“If it is a price, then it has to be the memories in his head. However, based on his personality, he isn’t someone to give it all away. It is obvious. He will disperse the power of the humans, and in the meantime, he will recover the memories to become stronger. He must’ve thought he could break the promise as long as he recovers the memories.” Callioraks went beyond the situation and read Edward’s thoughts.

He figured it out perfectly as if he had become Edward.

“It is possible. It doesn’t make sense to just help.” Hyeonu nodded.

‘Even if returning to the middle world is the tribe’s dream... it doesn’t make sense to attack recklessly like this.’

Callioraks’ words were definitely true. Luke wouldn’t have moved the tribe for no reason.

“In addition... where are the adventurers in the demon world now?” Callioraks once again asked Hyeonu a question. Hyeonu put the skewer in his hand back in its original position. Then he thought about the answer to Callioraks’ question.

‘I remember seeing an article in the community.’

He remembered seeing an article about how the large guilds had left Etono to make a base in Penn.

“Probably... My understanding is that they are around Penn. It isn’t that there are no adventurers further out than that, but the cities that are being managed are only up to Penn...”

The large guilds did not advance beyond Penn. The hunting grounds were overflowing from Etono to Penn. In particular, from a certain moment on, the demons and demonic creatures became strangely strong enough to make hunting difficult.

“Penn... Penn... What about the war against the ra tribe?” Callioraks asked again.

‘Probably... Many people will go there, right? I arranged it that way.’ Hyeonu remembered the previous live stream, which had approximately over 20 million viewers. It was clear that there would be quite a few people associated with the large guilds among them.

“In any case... I think those in the demon world will move. There are quite a few people who want to build up achievements.”

Hyeonu predicted that at least five large guilds will leave the demon world. The number five was by no means a small number. Currently, the number of large guilds left in the demon world was around 30 at most. It meant at least 16% of humans’ power was leaving.

“Is that so? Then tell them all to go back to Etono. No... kick them out. If they are taken away, I’ll back off,” Callioraks suddenly released a bombshell remark.

“Huh? What are you saying all of a sudden?” Hyeonu put down the skewer in his hand again with a puzzled expression.

“It is as you heard. For the time being, you should keep the adventurers tied only to Etono. I need time to raise the level of the demon world,” Callioraks said. Then he picked up a well-cooked skewer, ripped off the meat, and swallowed it. He quickly ate a few like this before continuing the conversation. “As you know, the demon world has weakened over the years. It has to be strong again like it was before. I will take extreme measures. Your task is to isolate the adventurers to prevent them from interfering.”

After this, Callioraks continued to chew on and swallow the skewered meat.

Hyeonu looked at the skewers cooking in front of him with a complicated expression.
