Conquering an entire hunting ground alone was no easy task.
Even the infamous necromancer, the embodint of quantity, wasn’t an exception.
However, the overwhelming tactics and power that made it possible perfectly demonstrated the magnificence of the Almighty class.
To sweep an entire map with just 40 undead was unimaginable.
Seong, facing the scene that was hard to believe, nodded with a peculiar expression.
‘Now level 34, huh? It’s a bit frustrating. But well, it can’t be helped.’
If soone else heard it, they’d probably be dumbfounded by the absurdity of it, but Seong didn’t mind at all.
It was undeniably an unprecedented speed, but if he looked only at the speed, it felt slow.
Back in the days of PC gas, weren’t there gas where you could reach level 200 in less than an hour?
Of course, comparing it with that wasn’t fair, but still.
When playing RPGs, leveling was inevitable.
Seong was sowhat satisfied and imdiately opened his status window.
He then quietly observed his status window.
【Status Window】
『Seong』
『Lv 34』
『Class』
→『Overlord』
『Titles』
→『Lord (Legendary)』... plus 18 others.
『Stats』
→《Strength: 53 (48 5)》
《Agility: 61 (55 6)》
《Health: 48 (43 5)》
《Intelligence: 56 (50 6)》
《Wisdom: 61 (55 6)》
《ntal Strength: 133 (120 13)》
《Dexterity: 7 (6 1)》
『Additional Stats』
→《45》
‘Hmm, it’s well-balanced.’
After absorbing the mories of the entire rcenary group, Seong’s strength, agility, and health had risen significantly.
It was a balanced set of stats, but the Overlord was strictly a magic-based class.
It was more appropriate to focus on intelligence and wisdom.
This ti, Seong decided to put 25 points into intelligence and 20 points into wisdom.
When his intelligence and wisdom both rose to 83, Seong felt a strange sense of satisfaction as he nodded.
With his stats adjusted, Seong thought about what to do next.
‘Now, I need to choose the next hunting ground...’
Hunting in the field had its limits.
Despite having taken over an entire map, he only raised his level by 4.
There was now a need to consider parties.
It was clear that dungeon clearing with a party was far more efficient, as the experience from defeating monsters was added to the experience gained from completing the dungeon.
So, in terms of efficiency, entering a dungeon with a party was the best choice.
However, you never knew when so strange user might show up.
That was a concern.
‘But does it matter?’
He’d already dealt with any strange users he’d encountered, so he wasn’t too worried.
Deciding to form a party when necessary, Seong then rembered the second warehouse of Kahku in another village.
When he first arrived at Sekhan Village, his level and strength were insufficient, so he had planned to go there when he reached level 50, but now...
‘Now, I can handle it.’
His business in Sekhan Village was already finished, and there were no more clues to find any hidden pieces, so it seed like a good ti to move on to the next village.
Finding a party could be arranged afterward.
If necessary, he could even ask the guild for help.
As Seong was thinking this...
[Guild ssage has arrived.]
‘Hmm?’
Speaking of the devil, a ssage from the guild arrived.
Wondering what it was about, Seong opened it.
“Hmm?”
It contained unexpected content.
1.
The base of the Rapid Guild, boasting of its heavenly stronghold.
Here, key mbers of the Rapid Guild began gathering.
It wasn’t all the executives, but the personnel manager, Rysil, channel manager, Chenchen, and other key figures, the brains behind the Rapid Guild, were in the conference room.
The guild leader, Rapid, sat at the head of the table with a serious expression, looking around at everyone present.
All of them had excited expressions, unable to hide their excitent.
None of them were unaware of the opportunity that had co.
Only Rysil, the personnel manager, seed a little nervous, but it was clear that even she was excited.
After looking around at everyone who hadn’t concealed their excitent, Rapid spoke.
“So, are we saying that we need to make Seong the star of the Rapid Guild channel by taking this opportunity?”
“Yes! Guild Leader! This is a golden opportunity!”
“Honestly, our current star, Yuna... she’s too stubborn…”
“There’s a lack of content with regular videos.”
“Our channel is honestly lacking compared to other large guilds.”
“That’s right. We have fewer subscribers than the 12th ranked Six Brothers.”
Everyone chid in, and the eting room quickly beca filled with noise.
Everyone’s points were understandable.
However...
“You all know that Yuna’s younger brother is Seong, right?”
“......”
“......Ahem.”
“......Hmm.”
“Hmm.”
The room was filled with coughing sounds, but no one had anything further to say.
Everyone knew Yuna’s personality well.
She was known for being a wall when it ca to anything other than raids, and she was also the fiercest within the Rapid Guild.
No one could control her.
Not even the guild leader, Rapid.
However, everyone also knew that Yuna cherished her younger brother dearly.
It wasn’t sothing they could just ignore.
An opportunity had co, and they couldn’t just sit back and watch.
Rapid knew this too.
“Well, since the opportunity’s here, we must seize it. I’ll find a way. Now, let’s hear your plan.”
Everyone smiled brightly and nodded at Rapid’s words.
As expected of the Guild Leader! They were all saying how they trusted him, and the eting proceeded.
The direction for which character to focus on was already clear.
A Demon King, or sothing of that level, would be perfect.
Seong already had that image, and all the users were welcoming it.
Making his image wasn’t going to be difficult.
If they asked Seong for his concept, it would be done.
Once the concept was established, they moved on to the next issue.
It was ti for Personnel Manager Rysil to speak.
“We had a lot of thoughts about assigning Seong to a team.”
Everyone nodded at Rysil’s words.
Though the guild ranked high, the Rapid Guild had only three rookie teams, a small number for such a guild.
The criteria for splitting the teams were naturally based on raid participation.
A team required at least six people, with a maximum of twenty.
The Rapid Guild kept the minimum number of people for each team.
That ant each of the three rookie teams had about six mbers, with one team having only four mbers.
The total number of rookies didn’t even make twenty.
Of course, despite that, the teams completed raids faster than any other rookie teams.
As a guild with the nickna “The Fastest,” they were known for their speed.
Now, the team Seong would be a part of was chosen.
“We’ll be assigning Seong to the Luna team.”
“Ahh.”
“Ah?”
“Wait, what?”
A sigh of confusion ca from everyone.
It wasn’t that they were surprised.
The Luna team was the strongest rookie team, though it was the smallest with only four mbers.
But still, everyone was wondering if that would be okay.
There were concerned looks all around.
And Rapid, the Guild Leader, felt the sa.
“...Luna team?”
“I believe Luna team is the most suitable for Seong right now.”
“Just to be sure, I ordered all the rookies to stop leveling up... but Luna team?”
Was this team problematic?
No, not really.
In fact, they were an excellent and outstanding team.
But...
“Ahem, it’s a very unique team…”
“Luckily, the team leader, Luna, is reliable…”
“But... will Yuna stay silent about this?”
“She might complain about sending him to a ragtag team…”
Concerned opinions flowed, but Guild Leader Rapid nodded as if agreeing.
“I see. I think Luna team is the best fit for Seong as well.”
Because the team was so unique, so worried expressions were understandable.
But it couldn’t be helped.
Considering Seong’s potential, it didn’t make sense to put him in anything less than the best rookie team.
Now that it was settled, Rapid flipped through several files and said.
“Once Seong hits level 50 and completes his second class advancent, we should send Luna team to tackle the new level 60 raid. No one has cleared it yet, right?”
“Yes, that’s right. Our rookie teams haven’t attempted it yet.”
“Other guilds are analyzing it, but it seems unlikely that it will be cleared in less than two months.”
“The level 60 raid is really tough.”
Everyone nodded in agreent.
Rapid, clearly satisfied, spoke with a smile.
“It’s all settled. After Seong reaches level 50 and completes his second class advancent, we’ll have him join Luna team for the new level 60 raid. And don’t worry about Yuna. I know just the person to handle her.”
Rapid, or rather An Yujin, smiled as he thought of Seong.
He knew that if he told Seong about this, even Yuna wouldn’t be able to complain.
With Seong’s team settled, An Yujin imdiately contacted him.
He told Seong about his team assignnt, asked him to send videos occasionally, and requested that he handle Yuna properly.
2.
Seong clicked on the guild ssage icon that had just arrived.
『Dear guild mber, Seong has been assigned to the Rookie 1st Team, Luna Team, of the Rapid Guild.
Team activities will begin after reaching level 50 and completing your second class advancent, with your first team raid participation required.
Furthermore, through the guild’s internal etings, it has been recognized that your video content has great potential. We would like you to continue making videos regularly.
Of course, the paynt for these videos will be calculated at a 30% rate, and we will send an additional contract soon.
We look forward to your continued success, Seong.
PS - If Mina causes a fuss, Seong, could you handle her?』
Of course, Seong furrowed his brows while reading the ssage.
The team assignnt was fine, and he wasn’t concerned about that.
Since he had joined the guild, working together was expected.
But asking him to handle his sister?
It wasn’t so much the request that bothered him; it was the opposite.
‘If Yujin is saying this, just how tyrannical must the guild be?’
Seong, who knew Yujin’s personality well, found this strange.
Yujin was soone who always drew a clear line between work and personal matters. That much was evident from the strictly professional tone in the ssage.
But for Yujin to go this far...
It seed his sister might be a bit of a wild card within the guild.
That aside...
‘A team.’
Seong wasn’t exactly antisocial.
It wasn’t that he shied away from others either.
The team itself wasn’t a problem for Seong.
However, he was a little concerned about how the other team mbers would react.
There could be issues like resistance or them not recognizing him as part of the team.
In so ways, Seong felt like an outsider, parachuting into the team.
Despite proving his abilities, the guild was essentially run by his sister and her friends.
It was a bit concerning, but not sothing that would stop him.
After all, he viewed it as a job.
‘If I do well, it should be fine.’
Seong brushed off his concerns about the team assignnt for now.
What mattered was leveling up.
There was still quite a bit of work ahead.
As for the request to handle Mina, it was sothing easily manageable.
A few words, and his usually soft sister would back down.
But the real important part of the ssage was different.
‘I have to make videos.’
Last ti, he sent a hunting video.
This ti, he felt like sothing different would be better.
And, fortunately, there was sothing interesting to cover.
Kahku’s second warehouse.
Although Seong had only been playing for two days, he wasn’t unfamiliar with the ga.
Wasn’t there sothing even better than hidden pieces that could make a video go viral?
Seong couldn’t resist clicking on a video about hidden pieces.
‘A hidden piece video, I couldn’t possibly resist that.’
With the perfect the and video content in mind, there was no hesitation.
Seong imdiately looked for the portal to teleport.
He set off toward the next destination, Oren Village.
As it was a neighboring village, he could travel between the second villages easily.
After arriving in Oren Village from Sekhan, Seong imdiately made his way toward Kahku’s second warehouse.
But as he walked, a couple of ghostly old n were talking nearby.
"Hey, did you hear? These strangers are going into Rocks’ Tomb!"
"Huh! That wicked magician Rocks' tomb??"
"Yeah, that’s what I heard!"
It was an intriguing conversation.
Without realizing it, Seong leaned in closer to listen.
"Do you know how many traps are hidden in that tomb? And they’re trying to go in?"
"Sigh, why? Tyler’s son, the current village chief, has sent those strangers to go in."
"Tyler’s son was always so greedy since he was a kid!"
"No kidding! He lured those innocent strangers by telling them there was treasure, but all they’ll find is what the necromancers like. It’s frustrating, but I can’t say anything."
When the two ghostly old n realized Seong was listening to their conversation, their eyes shook violently.
They had never seen soone paying attention to them.
"Huh, wait... Does he seem to be listening to us?"
"What?!"
Seong, realizing their surprise, politely asked.
“Could I hear more about that story?”
It seed like he might have discovered another hidden piece.
Another video topic to cover.
