Ah, not an unfamiliar ceiling, but a familiar chest.

After being shoved into the screen by what seemed to be a Goddess and briefly closing my eyes, I found myself back in my body on the 50th floor instead of the blurry mosaic space. Before I could fully come to, the voices of our group came rushing in.

"Roland!"

"Are you with us?"

"You're okay, right, Roland?!"

Moving my creaking body, I realized I was now wearing armor and clothes normally instead of the red aura. As I finally regained my senses, I found myself cradled in Irene's arms like a child.

Just like in the fairy tales told in the temple, the rampaging holy sword's owner regained his senses in the arms of the saint candidate. Maybe because of this, I could feel the gazes around us piercing to the point of being unsettling.

...I distinctly remember seeing Han Se-ah frantically stuffing boss drops into her inventory through the hologram window, nearly falling over before Katie steadied her.

"Good heavens, oh Goddess..."

"To think a mere human could do this with their bare hands..."

Coming to, I noticed quite a few familiar faces in the now completely ravaged palace garden. Somehow the war had ended, as Knight Commander Edward and James stood beside him, ignoring the anxiously fluttering harpies and seemingly occupying the garden.

Not only that, but Laurencia who led the escape, Manaashi with his black scales like armor as he stood with folded arms, and even the country bumpkin turned 5★ McDonagh who ended up fighting alongside us until the end.

This wasn't the final episode of some anime, but being surrounded by both Temple Knights and royal knights while cradled in the arms of the saint candidate suddenly made me think:

"Irene...?"

"Yes, Roland. Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

"Let me down..."

The Goddess of this land is, until the very end, full of mischief.

I thought we were surrounded like a scene from an anime, but watching Han Se-ah's recording of me losing consciousness and dropping my head in that moment really did look like a cliché scene.

Aside from the fact that the rampage was triggered by friendly fire from the slave stone dwarves Han Se-ah brought, isn't this a pretty typical story? Facing an enemy too powerful for allies to handle, going berserk, then regaining sanity in the arms of a beautiful woman.

Using rest, meditation, and enlightenment as an excuse to stay alone in my quarters fiddling with the hologram window, knowledge begins to surface more clearly.

"If you're going to do this, just say it out loud..."

"Roland? Do you need anything?"

"It's nothing!"

As I mutter with a bit of resentment towards the mischievous Goddess, Irene's voice comes from outside like a ghost. While the others are out dealing with the aftermath of the battle, only Irene waits for me in the next room.

Well, 'next room' is just a figure of speech. Judging by how I can hear her voice, she must have brought a chair to sit in the hallway. Feeling both guilty and grateful for her dedication, I should hurry and sort out what needs sorting.

Even if it's the aftermath of using an awakening skill, there's no problem with my body or mind. I just got a bit dizzy from the knowledge the playful Goddess crammed into my head.

Like suddenly remembering something you forgot before bed while washing your face in the morning, things keep coming to mind.

'As I thought, that Goddess didn't bring me here. ...More precisely, she doesn't have that kind of ability.'

The first thing that comes to mind is related to the quest. Of course, not the main quest of Heroes Chronicle that Han Se-ah is playing, but the story of the hologram window appearing before me.

As I help Han Se-ah and she gradually progresses through the game, the Goddess regains her power. Thus, the Goddess who has stored up energy helps Han Se-ah through me at crucial moments. The "two instances of help" the Goddess mentioned must be obtaining the holy sword on the 40th floor and using the awakening skill this time.

...Since she gave me a 5-minute ignore-defense extreme damage skill and a 10-minute full recovery transformation skill, should I serve her more respectfully even now?

Anyway, to me, who has the body of a natural 6★ character but is too stupid to use skills properly, the Goddess used up her energy giving me the holy sword and easing the conditions for the awakening skill, leaving less than a minute for our meeting.

For a Goddess to use up all her power just to hand over one holy sword and ease the conditions of an awakening skill... Does she really have the ability to kidnap souls from another world?

Of course, she might have used up all her power bringing my soul here and fallen from grace. But if that's the case, wouldn't it make more sense to bring the soul of someone like Kim Seok-hyun, the sword genius after coming in second place while streaming?

This side is still a martial arts dunce who hasn't properly learned blunt weapon skills because I'm busy learning shield techniques.

'And also... what's with this update.'

So I should believe that the Goddess who is favorable to me is not the culprit, but is helping me and Han Se-ah. In this situation, if I doubt the Goddess, it would mean abandoning the quest and refusing to break through the tower.

More concerning than that is the word "update" that keeps coming to mind whenever I watch Han Se-ah's stream through the hologram window. Whether this is also the Goddess's mischief or lack of ability, I keep thinking that something big is coming, but what that "big thing" is doesn't come to mind.

It feels like trying to sneeze but only managing to hiccup. Still, I was able to confirm what that big thing was soon enough.

"Huh, what's this? Heroes Chronicle new update season 2? They're patching something because we cleared the 50th floor?"

-So is it just your patch or everyone's patch?

-Such a big patch note won't fit in my head aaaaah

-Looks like the editors are gonna die of heart attacks from drinking energy drinks lol How are they gonna edit this?

-Another saint candidate, palace battle, tentacle monster appearance, Flying Roland, Roland's awakening skill, even 7★ info lol. Job postings will be up on the community soon

A system message was sent to Han Se-ah, not me.

And the world stopped.

So much has happened.

So many events that as viewership increased and Heroes Chronicle stream times lengthened, the additionally hired editors begged to hire more people even if it meant reducing their wages.

Han Se-ah, now in a position where she could be called a walking one-person company rather than just an individual streamer. Boasting such an imposing presence that even mediocre collaboration requests no longer came in due to her rapidly increasing viewership, she had this thought upon receiving the sudden system message:

"Wow, legal break time, sweet."

-Could you please put a filter on that mouth of yours?

-Even after becoming a global star, you can't break old habits lol. Just turn on a horror game when HC is patching

-Oh, this punk's going straight into whale milking after sucking on the mission money

-But even if it's a patch, it won't take more than a few days.

"No, how can you blame me for this? A streamer's game disappears so I want to take a break. Of course, I'm always grateful to the devs for allowing Roland's awakening skill to chew up, tear apart, taste, and enjoy two bosses. Mission success!"

[Han Se-ah The Trailblazer donated 10,000 won!]

Her knees lighten infinitely before capital

"It's not that they've lightened, it's that they're so heavy my waist bends on its own and my knees buckle. Does 4,500 look like pocket change to you?"

Viewers rise up spasmodically at the news that game service will be temporarily suspended for updates. Well, I suppose they might be angry since they were riding the high of Roland's awakening skill when it got cut off.

But that's not my problem.

Even before her viewership increased monstrously, she had clearly set one standard and never wavered from it, so this time too she brushed off the storm of complaints pouring in from viewers. It's not like I'm a female streamer lying about taking a break because of a secret romance. The game is being patched so I can't play, how is that my fault?

"If you're upset, you know what to do, right? Go send some trucks to BB Games and while you're at it, try to squeeze out some other natural 6★ info and gacha rates... Whoever takes point on calling the trucks, I'll back you up generously."

As the conversation progressed to that point, the topic naturally flowed to the story of natural ★s.

As always, malicious viewers with a grudge cling to the break, but with viewers in the millions, including those from overseas, pouring out chat messages, how could it work? A loach can muddy a puddle, not an ocean.

Though she'd like to talk about the 51st floor explicitly labeled as season 2, Heroes Chronicle isn't a particularly friendly game company. Just looking at the system message, it says there will be a patch, but there's no detailed patch notes explaining what the patch entails.

Thanks to this, viewers are noisily heating up with talk of Roland's awakening skill, the conquest of the 50th floor, and the sudden patch.

'...But is this okay for game balance when they're clearly rewarding first clears? Are they just trying to make lucky natural 6★ drawers into major shareholders?'

Leaving a question in Han Se-ah's heart similar to that of the viewers.
