>200.
[Clash of God and Hero!]
>[The root of it all: Kaiser's clear of Pratel's hidden named raid boss Ruidra!]
>[Hero Guild's recruitment target Ruidra cleared by Kaiser, sending shockwaves...]
>[Babylon crashes the party! Babylon sets sights on Kaiser?]
>[End of the Lantern Festival? Pratel's famed festival comes to a close...]
>[Kaiser's connection to the Lantern Festival.]
Giant headlines plastered everywhere.
>Not just on the Gotose homepage, but across every portal site like the green and blue windows—articles about Kaiser filled them all.
>Real-time search terms were completely dominated by related topics.
-Anyway, Kaiser never has a quiet day lololol
>-What the hell happened this time fr
>-Ruidra clear, war with Hero Guild, Lantern Festival ends? All in one day?
>-Has there ever been a player with this much impact?
>-How dare you, blasphemous fool, calling a god a mere player!
>└Ah, uh... Kamen...
>-You can hear the reporters going wild lololol
The communities exploded.
>People were tearing their hair out over this unprecedented mega-issue in gaming history.
"Hello, bosses! It's Tangcheol TV! Everyone knows about the chaos this time, right? Who wouldn't? Nah, I wouldn't even bring it up if I was just gonna ramble. I'm the guy who streamed the Lantern Festival live!"
"Boss steal? Nah, that's boss kidnapping. What? How do you kidnap a boss? Oh, the boss kidnapped Kaiser."
Not just communities and reporters—even BJ streamers jumped in, yapping away.
>Before, they could only speculate, but this time, having streamed the Lantern Festival themselves, they had plenty to say.
-What the hell is all this? Boss did the kidnapping?
>└Fr, what nonsense is that? Can't even understand.
>└? Didn't watch Hero Guild's Ruidra raid stream? Was it mostly foreigners?
>└Nah, guy's just clueless. Everyone knew.
>└So what? X-fanboy.
>└TL;DR: Hero Guild starts raid, Kaiser Hero Lands in, hidden phase triggers, boss kidnaps Kaiser ok?
>└...? What kinda bullshit.
-But what's this last Lantern Festival thing? No more festivals?
>-So how'd the war go down? Why'd Babylon butt in? They know each other?
>-Wtf guys, ask one at a time. My head's spinning.
>-It's dizzying that all this happened in a blink lololol
Especially this time, there was just too much to talk about.
>Even one of those would've blown up—three at once? No way to make sense of it.
After hours of chatter...
>It all circled back to one main topic.
-So Kaiser and Berze finally threw down for real?
>-Yeah, seems like it.
>-All those little clashes building up to this matchup.
Kaiser VS Hero Guild.
>Gamers get fired up over others' fights like no one else.
>No way they'd let this blockbuster pass.
And right then, videos dropped on NewTube.
[You got kidnapped.]
>[Hero Guild]
>[True Lantern Festival]
Just three videos.
-Crazy... Kaiser vid dropped!
>-Hero Guild too?
>-Wtf thumbnail, that's the king? He's crying? Bro's crying?
>-Wow... that's the final Lantern Festival?
Uploaded simultaneously to KaiserTV, which had already smashed ten million subs—they caused a total uproar.
-Pls no... too sad ㅠㅠㅠ
>-Angela ㅠㅠㅠㅠhuhugrrr
>-Gilberun... so sweet. Why so heartbreaking.
>-But how does Kaiser get quests like that? Actual main quest?
>-You T-fucking-C? That's what you're curious about rn?
>-Lanterns so pretty... like a fairy tale.
The touching tale of the king and Angela, residents and players enjoying the Lantern Festival.
-Kidnap real lololololol
>-Ah, so that's the TL;DR. Accurate af.
>-Stylish Hero Landing
>-Wtf, scrolls in mid-clear. Timing on point lololol
>-Control real too? Insane. Soloing a raid boss? Ppusung ppasung
>-Hidden named too. Class act...
Ruidra clear and the beef with Hero Guild explained.
>It cleared up all the questions about the sudden events.
>Word spread like wildfire, views skyrocketing.
[Views: 27.15M]
>[Views: 29.42M]
>[Views: 30.31M]
Blasting past ten million to thirty in no time.
>Subs climbed with every refresh, shifting public opinion big time.
-Wait, Kaiser didn't do it on purpose or anything.
>-Hero Guild struck first lololol 30v1 got wrecked, not embarrassed?
>-Miyen romancegay lololol Thought they had the moral high ground, classic Berze chump.
>-But from Berze's side, kinda understandable. Quest they were grinding went poof.
>-It's ambiguous. Both sides make sense.
>-Yeah upstairs right. Why guilds stay out otherwise.
>-Understand my ass lololol Got stomped 30v1 then tried 200v1, got cockblocked by Gilberun—pathetic af.
Public sentiment, which leaned toward Kaiser crossing the line, flipped.
>Some sided with Berze, but most Kaiser haters vanished—positive shift.
And reactions weren't just online.
Bzzz—zzzt—
>[Yoo Jong-hyun: Wtfwtfwtfwtf!!!]
>[Kim Doo-hyung: Breaking! KingGodGeneralKaiser vs PatheticParasiteOraBomiYenRomanceGay!! Showdown!]
>[Kwak Jae-yeol: Update, Babylon Guild crashes in!]
>[Kim Hyun-soo: Wild how the tide's turning. Do-hyun, wtf you doing? Not checking in this mess?]
>[Kim Doo-hyung: That punk gaming again without a clue?]
>[Yoo Jong-hyun: What would an outsider who won't even join KingGodGeneralKaiserPunch guild know.]
>[Kwak Jae-yeol: Lolololol When he questioned the guild name, now he's left behind lololol]
>[Yoo Jong-hyun: How could one not fall after receiving Kaiser-nim? I'm already a fervent devotee of Kaiser-nim.]
>[Kim Doo-hyung: Just wait. Soon snag Hyun-ah and Do-hyun too. Hyun-ah's almost there.]
Do-hyun's phone was vibrating like mad.
>Alarms nonstop—worried it'd explode.
And it wasn't just friends reacting.
Ding ding ding—
>Creak—
"Oppa! Huge incident!! Our Kaiser-nim vs Hero Guild showdown... Huh? Where is he?"
Hyun-ah punched in the code, burst in yelling, then stopped.
>No Do-hyun in sight, so she kicked off her shoes and flung open his door.
>Saw the capsule running, shook her head.
"Sigh, gaming again. Not the time..."
Then left without lingering.
"Whatever... Probably Raven or Brion anyway. Knowing Empire drama would just hurt. Gotta log back in and push the kids to graduate!"
Figured it didn't matter.
While everyone fixated on the incident, time passed, day turned to next.
>As the hype cooled a bit, people started wondering.
-So all this chaos, what’s Berze doing?
>-Dunno? Kinda quiet.
>-Yeah? What about Kaiser?
>-Not quiet, keeps getting blocked by Babylon.
The stars of the show, Hero Guild and Kaiser, stayed silent.
But Berze felt wronged.
>He wasn't staying quiet to ignore the attention.
"Alright, prep perfect. This time, no escape—total encirclement..."
"What? Roadblock? Move aside?"
"Not your spot..."
"Of course it is. On escort quest. Threatening residents? Beat it before I report."
"..."
Try waiting in the city—Babylon guildies show up, block.
"Damn them... Change plans. Picked spots Kaiser might hunt. Preempt and starve him ou—"
"Whoops, we got business from here."
"We already claimed it~"
Try claiming dungeons or hunts—Babylon guildies wink and block. What could he do?
>City block, dungeon block, hunt block...
>Babylon everywhere.
"Uwaaaaa!! Why keep blocking us!! Why!!"
All Berze could do was rage like a stormy teen.
Meanwhile, in Ast...
"This guy's temper's like a feral cat."
In his office, lounging in a chair, getting real-time updates while picking his ear.
Do-hyun chuckled dryly at Ast's words.
"You sure this is fine? Unspoken rule and all."
"Huh? What'd I do? Just claimed a few dungeons, took some escort quests from NPCs? They're the roadblockers~"
"..."
"Saw your vids split opinions. I didn't cross lines, so they can't go wild either?"
Ast grinned smugly, adding,
"Like I always say. Hard to hold a spot once image carries you up. Kkukku would've tanked ages ago. Better to pay a bit and outsource clean."
If money doesn't buy loyalty, maybe not enough cash.
>Classic Purple Bro philosophy.
Do-hyun agreed somewhat, but not the Kkukku bit.
"Kkukku's image is 'fight-crazed psycho.' Nothing's weird for him."
"Ah... True. Craziest I know."
Kkukku fought daily; any beef was normal.
>If he took a preemptive hit quietly? Fake news.
Anyway...
Rustle.
Ast stopped picking his ear, looked up.
>Met Do-hyun's eyes across the desk, smirked.
"Anyway, late but good to see ya, punk."
Casual toss.
>No awkwardness despite years apart—familiar as ever. Do-hyun smiled faintly.
"Long time, bro."
One year eight months since Delmrok shutdown.
>Nearly two years—finally reunited.
