The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 281: Starting from Zero (5)

There were elements familiar to humanity on the Arcana Continent. That was because Arcana was a game developed and serviced by Cosmo, the predecessor of AAU.

Nam Cheolmin swallowed.

Of course, now

There had been claims from AAU that Arcana was not just a game, but a world that existed from the beginning But there were definitely contents on Arcana that felt welcome.

Starting from legendary animals such as dragons.

To the weapon in Hoyeols hand that appeared on the monitor at this moment.

Excalibur.

According to the legend of King Arthur, it was a famous sword stuck in a rock that only the chosen one could pull out. The analysts became excited and opened their mouths one by one.

I-Is that really Excalibur?

Why are you still asking? Cant you tell when you see it? The Commander pulled it out by hand. He just snapped out the sword that was so firmly embedded that it looked like it sprang out of the rock. He pulled it out easily!

Above all, the place is unusual. Small Champions Sanctuary. Such a sacred place It made sense that an item presumed to be Excalibur was buried there.

All of the analysts listening, including Nam Cheolmin, nodded their heads.

If the person concerned had seen it, that sight would have made his hands and feet curled.

The person concerned was focusing on discipline beyond the screen, in the cave.

Who said that?

?

If you distribute it as a press release, everything will be completely quiet.

I-It was me.

It was a very good idea.

Nam Cheolmin clenched his fist.

Everything depends on Commanders will.

However, Nam Cheolmin was thinking ahead.

This world needed to respect the Commander a little more.

Hadnt Hoyeol already got enough respect?

No, the world constantly wanted proof.

Because humans were insatiable creatures in the first place.

The government?

High-ranking official, It is unfortunate that he doesnt share any information.

It is clear that there are matters directly related to public safety .

We must follow the example of Union

They couldnt be grateful.

They continued to fuel public opinion by saying that the players, including Lee Hoyeol, didnt share confidential information with the government. Every time, Nam Cheolmin responded with mockery.

Its obvious where that information will go.

How much had they been swallowed by Union?

The public opinion?

Now that I heard it, that seems true???

No civilian will be harmed, so why dont you just share it

Honestly, I wonder what Lee Hoyeol is doing;;

Even when the dragons ran wild

He wasnt trying to blame the public.

When biased information kept pouring out, It was not surprising that such opinions crept up. However, Hoyeols actions were as brilliant as the sun.

You cant block the sun with your palm.

So the media play didnt matter.

They could easily trample it.

Well, that was still the case even now.

No, without the Dark Dragon, the Earth would have been destroyed

He neatly sorted it out, you guys just suck

If he continues to do you a favor, dont take it for granted

But Nam Cheolmin knew.

Someone would never get tired of it and would bite onto Hoyeol again. It was probably because he knew this that he felt overwhelmed more than ever.

A big picture was drawn.

Laying the groundwork by simultaneously attacking the Zero Mountains caves.

The corners of his mouth naturally rose up.

A goddess who is comparable to the dark dragon, raising the expectations.

Finally, perfect strategy and impeccable execution

A final blow with Excalibur pulled from the rock.

Just by imagining it, a thrilling heroic narrative emerged. Of course, it was up to Hoyeol to decide whether to reveal everything to the world or not. But at any rate.

You keep proving it, Commander.

Hoyeol was someone who could make you feel proud just by being able to move forward together. Moreover, all of this happened just an hour after the start of the attack.

In other words, starting now, all of Hoyeols moves had a meaning.

Nam Cheolmin came to his senses.

I shouldnt miss a single thing.

The meaning that was attached to each action.

It was their job to find everything.

Other analysts knew that too.

I dont know if he had Excalibur from the beginning or if he discovered it this time But the important thing is that he drew the sword. Its not for no reason that he has the nickname the Vessel of the King and the Dragon Lord.

Ah, yeah, he was called the Dragon Lord, too. He has so many nicknames

Maybe we should be prepared for this. Hes probably trying to warn us in advance. Well, isnt there a saying? If you unsheathe a knife, youll have to cut a radish.

(TL: If you unsheathe a knife, youll have to cut a radish = Once you start, you should try anything you can even if the action seems insignificant.)

Thanks to this, there was an active exchange of opinions among them.

How about annotating it with subtitles during final editing? I think it would be a shame to gatekeep the deep meaning behind the Commanders actions to ourselves!

Nam Cheolmin nodded.

Thats not a bad idea.

Those who had pride would recognize it without any explanation, but this world wasnt just filled with people who had pride. The Commander would definitely show mercy to such people.

Click clack!

In case they forgot the meaning they discovered.

Analysts left records by typing.

As they were engrossed, they flinched for a moment.

?

Blink

For a moment, they felt the hair on their whole body stand up.

Nam Cheolmin was no exception.

In Nam Cheolmins case, he was able to react a little more sensitively.

?

Thanks to the rare experience, he was not unfamiliar with that unpleasant feeling.

But he couldnt recognize it right away.

It was only natural.

No. This is not the time to be distracted, Nam Cheolmin.

To chase the source of discomfort.

Zero Mountain was too vast.

The weight he carried as an analyst was heavy.

*

Union.

Zero Mountain Area 7, gathering place.

A red flag with the number seven written on it fluttered.

A man of large stature and below-average height.

Two people spoke in low whispers.

Whether its here or the Arcana Continent, its all the same.

What are you talking about?

Those who have nothing are all barks with no bites. Tsk!

Lakid lifted his mask and spat out. It was not a crow mask. These were the masks that covered the faces of the people who claimed to be the Five Stars of Union.

Haha! Its our nature, we cant help it.

Our nature?

Humans are animals in the end. Have you ever seen wild animals hunting in packs? Its natural for weaker animals to stick together!

Ah, thats why I go around alone.

Hahaha! As expected, you have something in common with me.

The person who vibed with Lakid was the third seat, Henderson.

The two men had to be careful as they infiltrated the gathering place of Union for their purpose. Considering that, didnt their combination stand out from the outside?

No one could refute that.

In a place far away from the gathering place.

White, inverted eyes.

Vice Leader. Uh Does it really have to be those two?

Eighth seat, Nadivo.

His ability was sensory sharing.

Nadivo shared the senses of the two men, Henderson and Lakid, with all members of the Shadow Mercenary Corp.

Instead of answering Nadivos question, a sight came out.

I knew it would be like this. Those idiots! What kind of infiltration is that? More importantly, Lakid, why did that crazy bastard choose a mask that doesnt even suit him?!

Not a pig, not a wolf, but a rabbit mask!

Its a good thing that Isabel Marl let the rabbit go.

If it werent for that, that disastrous appearance would have definitely aroused suspicion, and the infiltration, the plan, everything would have gone wrong. Not only that, they even went too far.

Why are both of their voices so loud !!

The fifth seat, Herkiora clutched his head.

But they are still thinking about the plan, right?

Fourth stone, Pimby asked with a worried look.

Why are you worrying so much?

Alkali chuckled.

Leader Kitch might seem unreliable at times.

But that wasnt the case for the vice leader, Wolf.

He was much more capable than he looked.

Relax. Its just as planned.

Wolf observed the sensation coming from Nadivo.

He was once a leader of defeated soldiers.

His dishonorable past helped in this case.

Familiar sights and smells.

You can discover ten things just by looking at one thing.

The abnormal governance structure of Union would inevitably cause competition among members. So at this moment, the gathering place for Union was no different from a battlefield.

Henderson and Lakid.

Why did he put those two together?

The reason was simple.

Because those two shine on the battlefield.

Aside from Wolf himself, Henderson and Lakid were the most familiar with the battlefield among the members. That meant they could quickly read the atmosphere of the battlefield. The atmosphere they read reached the members through Nadivo.

It feels like the calm before the storm

Everyone nodded at Pimbys words.

Hmm. Its like a flask thats about to explode.

Alkalis metaphor was accurate.

It doesnt matter who entered. In fact, even if we hadnt entered, the outcome would have been the same. Eventually, there would be bloodshed at the gathering place.

Bloodshed? Theyre going to bleed?

Still, theyre allies, right? Even if we truly acted like professionals and caused a disturbance, would they really point swords at each other as easily as flipping over their palms?

Wolf answered Pimby and Herkioras questions.

Because that structure allows no other choice.

That structure allows no other choice?

What is Union?

A group was called a group because the members came together for a mutual benefit.

In this case, Union was unique.

They were not acting for the sake of the members.

Only one person.

They planned and moved for the monarch, Liu Jinchun.

In fact, the monarch of the Arcana Continent is such an existence.

An existence who could change even irrationality into rationality.

That was why they were dangerous.

Limited to the monarch.

Members loyalty was only to the monarch.

It wasnt for the sake of the group or the other members.

Alkali listened to Wolf.

In other words, if the young monarch is alive and well, Union has festered and its time for it to explode. All we did was nudge an object that was about to burst. Keheh.

The proof was that they aimed their blades at each other without hesitation.

At Alkalis words, the members seemed to understand.

Wolf confirmed his plan again.

The more the disturbance spreads, the more the higher-ups will intervene. We dont know when our cold-hearted monarch of Union will appear, but

He would make his appearance sooner or later.

Liu Jinchun would not budge under any threats.

But if his life was at stake, he would have no choice but to hand over the connector.

Until then, its better to make a lot of commotion.

In that respect, Henderson and Lakid were a good fit.

Indeed. Those two are very noisy.

The conversation ended with Herkioras ramble.

This cleared the members doubts.

He just had to watch the situation.

Wolf was feeling out of place even before he started planning.

Did he really not know?

Liu Jinchun.

Was the monarch really unaware that his group was rotting? No, more than ignorance, this was at the level of encouraging internal strife. The weaknesses of the structure were clearly visible to the point that you could feel a sense of incompatibility.

But Wolf soon shook his head.

Even though he knew, he had no reason to do that.

Wolf had taken the lives of more than ten monarchs with his own hands.

Thanks to this, Wolf knew a lot about monarchs.

The power of a monarch was proportional to the group.

If the group became powerless, so did the monarch.

There was no reason for a monarch to deteriorate their own group.

As Alkali said, Liu Jinchun was probably just inexperienced.

Because he was an adventurer, not a monarch of the Arcana Continent.

Wolf shook his head.

Youre losing focus, Wolf Saccharin.

With Kitchs disappearance.

Now that he was taking over as the leader.

He might be paying too much attention to the little things.

Everything goes according to plan.

He pushed himself and watched the situation.

Meanwhile.

He found an eye-catching presence in Hendersons and Lakids field of view.

?

He was a man who did not match the adventurers of Union who possessed a high level of armament. In terms of looks, his biggest feature was

Who is that?

The man didnt have a right arm.

.

.

.

Demons feed on negative emotions.

That was the nature of demons.

The great evil was no exception.

However, even a great evil couldnt escape the natural enemy relationship.

No, rather, it was exactly because they were the great evil that they couldnt.

Even in the vast Zero Mountain, they wouldnt be able to hide from their natural enemies.

To the point that their stench could be smelled even deep in a cave.

Natural enemy.

Demon hunter.

A message was displayed in Hoyeols field of vision.

[The skill, Natural Relationship is activated.]

You presumptuously showed yourself in front of me again.

A cold voice rang out.

Wait for your disposition, demon of the question mark (???).
