[Felion’s Death Knight has been killed . ]

[Experience has been acquired . ]

After defeating the death knight, Hyeonu gave a thumbs up to Tang-E .  However, Tang-E didn’t see it .  It was because the battle against Felion wasn’t over yet .

‘It isn’t over yet?’

Even so, it seemed that it would be over for Felion the moment Tang-E’s magic hit him once .  The damage caused by Tang-E’s attacks seemed insignificant, but the indirect damage caused by Roar was very great .  A magician was too fragile .  It was over for Felion unless he had a skill to regain his health like Edward .

‘I should let Tang-E finish it . ’

Hyeonu decided to give Tang-E a chance .  If Hyeonu used Mysterious Sky Steps to approach Felion and swing his sword, Felion would never be able to avoid it .  There was no room to stop it .  At the moment, Felion was only focused on Tang-E .

‘Now!’

An opportunity entered Hyeonu’s eyes when he was looking for a timing to intervene .  Felion and Tang-E were both preparing magic .  Tang-E’s hands were filled with golden lightning bolts while Felion was making a huge black spear .  Just before Tang-E and Felion’s spells were completed, Hyeonu opened his mouth and called out, “Pepe!”

Hearing Hyeonu’s sudden shout, Tang-E turned his head as he released the lightning .

‘Pepe? Did he look at me just now and say, ‘Pepe’?’

Tang-E was determined to hold Master dude to account for calling him by a strange name .  With this, he could get better treatment for at least two days .

‘Pepe?’ The familiar name broke Felion’s composure .  “Pepe? Pepe!”

Pepe was the name of the bear his disciple had raised, and there was a big bear right in front of his eyes .  It could’ve been a bear with the same name .  However, Felion’s heart was blinded by the name Pepe, and he quickly abandoned such a.s.sumptions .  Felion canceled the spell he was casting .

“Huup!” Felion bowed his head to endure the flow of bleeding .  However, despite that effort, blood spilled out of Felion’s mouth .  It was the recoil caused by the sudden cancelation of magic .  Felion didn’t have time to worry about it though .  His dead disciple’s masterpiece was now appearing in front of his eyes .

Once Felion finally raised his head, he saw a giant bear with a golden halo .  ‘Pepe . ’

The gold light pierced through Felion .

Hyeonu smiled at the dizzying message .  He was thrilled .  With this, the fifth main scenario had rounded the bend .  The rebels were probably successfully blocked in the other castles .  There were many guild members, so they were more advantageous in a large battle .  The monopoly of the fifth main scenario, which he had originally thought to be a futile goal, was right in front of him .

Hyeonu picked up the items that Felion had dropped—a bracelet and a staff—and moved straight to where the battles were still continuing .  A short time later, all the black magicians who came to Brigs were killed .

[-Wipe out the rebels 1/1]

[-Defend Brigs 1/1]

After the battle, Hyeonu met Earl Gennon .  Earl Gennon had called Hyeonu over to thank him .

“Thank you . It was all thanks to you . You protected Brigs and minimized the damage . I have already reported this to His Majesty . ”

Hyeonu’s face brightened upon hearing Earl Gennon’s words .  A smile appeared on his face .  It was an expression of satisfaction .

‘The favor is returned . ’

Still, Hyeonu didn’t show it outwardly .  Although his face couldn’t be seen, he still chose to only perform actions that NPCs would like .

“Why would you report to His Majesty? I was just visiting Brigs when the rebels showed up and I raised my hand to help . ”

Hyeonu’s words brought a smile to Earl Gennon’s face .  In the eyes of Earl Gennon, Hyeonu was a promising young man and a swordsman with excellent swordsmans.h.i.+p .  A pillar of the next generation of the empire—Hyeonu was naturally skilled and his personality was perfect .  

“If it is you, then that must be it .  Haha . ” Earl Gennon laughed as he watched Hyeonu with satisfaction .

“Then I’ll be going . I think I have to see His Majesty . ”

“Yes, go . ”

Inside a small room, Choi Jisu stared at her laptop .  These days, she was happy .  At 10 years old, she could remember things from five years ago .  Out of the five years she could remember, these days were the happiest .  Her father, Choi Yoon, was streaming with her favorite Alley Leader .  Additionally, Choi Yoon’s skills were getting better .

Choi Jisu was pleased and happy to see it .

“My daughter, what are you looking at?” Choi Yoon came to the hospital room and stroked Choi Jisu’s head .  He had yet to tell Choi Jisu that her surgery had been scheduled .  This was because he planned to get a bronze medal and reveal it in Alley Leader’s stream .

“Father? Are you coming again instead of playing Arena? Ehe, I said to work hard!”

Choi Yoon made a mock tearful face at Choi Jisu’s accusation .  “My daughter, are you nagging me again? Haven’t I been working hard? I played for more than 10 hours yesterday . It is why I deserve to come and see you . ”

Choi Yoon also felt that he was the happiest these days .  His daughter’s mother, who was his other half, had died after giving birth to Choi Jisu . Then their daughter, Choi Jisu, became seriously ill .  Now he was regaining his happiness .

“Really? Father, aren’t you better than you were before?” Choi Jisu’s eyes widened after hearing her father say he played for 10 hours .

“Of course . It’s true . I’m so good now . My daughter will be very surprised when she sees it in the next stream . ”

“Then I’m looking forward to it . Seriously . I’m not joking . ”

In Choi Yoon’s eyes, Choi Jisu was as cute as ever .  She had such a pretty and lovely smile .  Then he became angrier at his past self .  He had given up everything and wasted time every day .  Then Choi Yoon remembered a handsome young man .

‘Alley Leader . ’

The gift who gave hope and laughter to him and his daughter—Alley Leader was no different from an angel .  Choi Yoon smiled when he saw Choi Jisu .  Choi Jisu also smiled brightly at Choi Jisu .  

‘Thank you so much . ’ Choi Yoon conveyed his grat.i.tude to Alley Leader and the sponsor whose ident.i.ty was unknown .

Yusma, the capital of the Yusma Empire . . .

The emperor’s great hall was the most magnificent building in Yusma, and two men were standing inside it .  One was the current emperor of Yusma, and the man standing in front of him was Hyeonu .

“So after investigating the positions of the rebels all over the empire, you directly stopped the rebels at Brigs . Is the doc.u.ment that I received true?” The emperor asked like it wasn’t a big deal .

There was enough time for Hyeonu to get used to it, but he still had a difficult time with the emperor .  He knew the emperor was an NPC, but the peculiar strange atmosphere wasn’t easy to adapt to .  “Yes, it is true . I received intelligence on the rebels from the adventurers and told other adventurers about the content . Then I took part in the elimination of the rebels from Brigs . ”

“Kuhaha,” the emperor laughed loudly .

It was cool for Hyeonu to see .

“There are reports from Earl Gennon saying that you should be rewarded . . . What do you want to receive? Will you take a book from the library like you did the other day? Or do you want to receive battle gear? Tell me . ”

Upon hearing the emperor’s words, Hyeonu’s head started to spin quickly .  He thought about what he should receive as a reward .  A weapon? Dark Star had a tremendous synergy with Hyeonu’s Mysterious Sky Demonic Art .  If the weapon were changed and it wasn’t epic rated, there was a possibility that the damage of the changed weapon would be lower .

Armor? It didn’t make sense unless he got a set item .

Accessories such as rings and necklaces? He had enough rings .  Then a necklace . . .

‘Yes, let’s change the necklace . I can’t wear the Symbol of the Meadow forever . ’

The necklace given to Hyeonu by Dakan, fighter of the Meadow Wolf Tribe, was the Symbol of the Meadow .

[Symbol of the Meadow]

[A badge given by Fighter Daken to anyone who shows phenomenal skills . Contains the unique fighting energy of the Meadow Wolf Tribe .

Rating: Unique

Restrictions: Acknowledged by Dakan .

Effect: Strength +100, Physique +50, fighting energy generated . ]

It was a pretty good item .  The necklace was an item he received early on, so Hyeonu felt bad . However, it was an item that other people didn’t have .  The option to give the user ‘fighting energy’ meant it could probably be sold for astronomical amounts .  If only it wasn’t for the wearer’s restrictions . . .

“A necklace—I want to receive a necklace . ” Hyeonu finished his careful considerations and decided to receive a necklace .

“A necklace . . . Yes, I’ll give it to you . ” The emperor clapped, and a man who appeared to be a servant quickly appeared .

The emperor spoke quietly to the servant .  Once the emperor finished speaking, the servant bowed to him and moved so silently that not even his footsteps were heard .  The servant then reappeared a short time later with a small box in his hand .  He knelt down and handed the box to the emperor .  Then the emperor gestured like he was calling for Hyeonu .

Hyeonu walked cautiously toward him .

“This is a reward for providing information about the rebels and reducing the damage to the empire .

[Defend Brigs has been cleared . ]

[Experience has been acquired . ]

[You have leveled up . ]

[All health and magic power have been restored . ]

[7,500 imperial contributions have been acquired . ] 

[The emperor’s gift has been acquired . ]

Once the emperor finished speaking, Hyeonu naturally received the box from the emperor’s hands .

“Thank you, Your Majesty . ” 

The servant quickly disappeared in an instant, just like when he came in .  Hyeonu was about to leave the great hall when the emperor’s voice rang out again .

“You aren’t going to scream this time? The guards are firmly trained, but it is better to be careful . ”

Underneath the mask, Hyeonu’s face was red .

Following the emperor’s advice, Hyeonu quickly left the imperial palace .  The place where Hyeonu arrived was outside the walls of Yusma, a rare forest .  Hyeonu usually walked around unmasked, or he at least took off all his items and moved around like ordinary players .  It was because it was troublesome when people recognized Alley Leader .  He was already a celebrity in the community .  Putting aside Alley Leader, Hyeonu had gained his own reputation due to his traffic light fas.h.i.+on and the auction house event . The reputation was on the bad side though .

“Now, it is settlement time . ” Hyeonu started to talk to himself like he was streaming .  It was a habit that arose since he restarted Arena .  He was always speaking to Tang-E or his audience, but he was alone right now .  Sometimes he was ashamed of this habit .

“First, I have to check the items that Felion dropped . ”

Hyeonu searched his inventory and pulled out a staff and bracelet .
