Knight's Journey community forum, aka Knighted, had many active users and was located in a community Lobby.
Most players would join this Lobby to talk about Knight's Journey. They fell in love with the ga itself and wanted to do whatever they could to find easter eggs. And the reliable source to find that was the community Lobby.
That was why the users often talked about various things and would always get excited when soone posted new things in the new thread that they could bring up on the main screen.
However, as a month had passed since the ga was released, the new things posted in the forum were getting less and less.
Nothing new was posted for a few days already, and people would only talk about the walkthrough and the best way to reach the ending in person.
That was why when a user called [FreakingNoob] posted a thread with an eye-catching title like [Viral! The demon Knight Captain praised a newbie!], those bored people imdiately sward the post.
On top of the post, the user puts a description.
[As usual, I went hunting for noob and first-ti strears to have a good laugh at their funny reaction when playing Knight's Journey for the first ti. But, damn! I found a really good noob, and Hutch even asked his na! Be careful; he didn't turn off the gore content.]

Under that description, a video was attached. It was a clip when Max jumped higher than a barbarian's head and killed him after front-flipping.
Following that, Max was approached by Hutch and was praised. The knight captain also asked his na and addressed him politely like a proper knight, not as a small fry.
— Is that really a newbie?
— I doubt it is a newbie. His movent in the video is like a pro! Here is the link of his stream: [AttachedLink]
— Don't lie to us, thread starter. You must've edited that video or recorded your friend who has already played Knight's Journey for a month!
└ Even so, it's still impressive.
└ He's a real newbie. I also watched his stream earlier, like FreakingNoob, and was surprised! Here is the screenshot of his streaming account. [AttachedImage.jpg]
└ For real?
└ If the screenshot is accurate, then he made his streaming account today.
— I just saw his channel. Damn, his reaction definitely belonged to a newbie. This is probably also the first ga he played.
└ For real, I also checked.
— Hutch praised soone?! I need to watch it!
— Is the slap I thought was a script actually personal? That damned Knight Captain! Once I finish my third run, I will slap him back! Twelve tis!
└ lol, this guy must have been slapped twelve tis in just three runs.
└ You were lucky. I was punched! Six tis!
└ Oh, this becos personal, then! I will also kick him three tis for my next run!
— This is new. Are there actually still many things we don't know about Knight's Journey? I need to make a video about this!
— I will be the one that gets praised next!
— Damnit! I wanted to see the cutscene, but he ended the stream early!
└ Maybe he got tired? It's his first stream, after all.
└ Breeze, is it? I will keep it in mind and follow his Punch account. I also want to see what happens next!
The new thread was filled with people instantly. So doubted the strear called Breeze was an absolute newbie, while the latter comnts were mostly about interest in Knight Captain Hutch, a strict NPC, praising a player in the tutorial.
So players were excited about the possibility that Max opened by getting a new scene from Knight Captain Hutch.
In one corner of the Lobby, which looked like a knight training ground from a dieval era, Max sat while swiping his hand to close the screen.
A grin crept into his face as he looked around the surroundings. People's avatars that looked like knights talked excitedly about the new thread.
'It worked.'
Max's move of ending his stream early was risky. He was just getting good traction, and his viewers loved the way he surprised them.
Not to ntion, he unlocked a scene that was never seen before in Knight's Journey, and many people got curious about the next cutscene after getting that strange event.
However, that worry was unfounded. It actually made people more interested in him and followed his streaming account.
As a result...
He completed the system's quest in less than 2 hours after he ended the stream.
The profile banner was put nicely on his streaming profile, featuring his na and an interesting design that introduced what he did.
"Variety strears, mostly playing gas!"
The system also put up his goal in the profile, setting it to 500 followers. It showed 14/500, filling the sword icon slightly.
There were also links that connected to his social dia, which he didn't know existed. He just needed to add so content in the future when he was ready.
It was as if he had a personal manager that helped him to set his channel up like those strears signing with an agency.
"So the reward written is not actually fixed. It can give an extra if I finish it way faster than the deadline or better than what the system wanted to do."
This ti was easy because he only needed to get 5 followers.
Following soone in Punch was free. The viewers just needed to press the follow button, which would give them a pop-up notification once their followed strear started their livestream.
That brought him to the next problem.
"50K Diamonds or a grand... Can I achieve this much in five livestreams?"
The nutritional supplent reward was really great. It was also a B-Grade, the third best among 5 grades out there, starting from S to D.
And there was sothing that changed slightly in the deadline.
'Does this an I need to finish the ga in my fifth stream? Or do I just need to reach the goal?'
It was vague, but that was what Max understood from this new deadline.
'I can just try my best. Knight's Journey is a short ga, so it maybe won't be strange if I finish one run in my fifth stream. For now, let's log out and eat. Reading the new quest makes hungry.'
With that, Max hit the logout button, and his character, which resembled his real self, disappeared from the community Lobby.
