The D-Rank Guild Master of the No. 1 Guild-Chapter 34
1st place Guild's D-class Guild Leader Episode 34
'I made eye contact with him, but I couldn't avert him for a moment (or for quite a while...'
"This is what it feels like to be mesmerized by a game character... What if I think I'm weird?'
'?not... I'm also possessed'
‘?222222222222’
‘?333333333’
'Are the people chatting here men or women? Do you feel like you're possessed by this character?"
'Yes...'
'yes yes'
'ha ha ha ha crazy thing, what the hell is that?'
Just by meeting the boy's pale chocolate-colored eyes, the gap between the game and reality is pulled out.
It makes the opponent's body strain and make them thirsty.
'I'm sure about this. This character is a tour de force of the company's graphic designers...'
The boy stirred up ambition and possessiveness in whoever looked at him.
The slender nape of her neck was pitiful to look at, and the flickering eyelashes evoked a strange sense of mystery.
'How old is he?'
'Aren't you too young? Weren't the characters at least 15?'
'A seriously skinny, undergrown 15-year-old or bozier...'
'Why doesn't the character status window open? I don't know how old you are."
'That's five minutes after the round starts, it's going to open up sequentially.'
'?'
The nameless boy stood there in a daze, not looking around, even as the gunfire rang out to signal the start of the survival game.
'Why are you blind?'
'There's no tension, lament'
'Baby, wake up'
A boy stands alone in the shadow of the jungle.
He finally looked up and looked around helplessly.
Her brown eyes were a gentle hue, devoid of any determination, but they were clear and neat enough to make your heart tingle.
[Inventory]
Could it be that he finally decided to survive like the other contestants?
His fingers opened the inventory, brushing past the food, water, and basic pocket knives within.
The place where Jericho's lean fingers reached was the potion sorting column. He pulled an item out of it.
[Throwing Sleep Potion]
‘?’
‘?’
'Why are you taking that out now?'
'No one around?'
On the in-game screen, the boy's face staring at the light blue potion was accompanied by the chats of puzzled viewers.
After a while, he opened the container. Then he stared at him again.
Soon the boy flashed his hand with his courage, and his head tilted with it.
A light blue liquid ran down his throat.
The next moment, an empty container fell into the jungle grass.
Soon the boy's body collapsed on the grass.
'No, it's the first time I've ever taken medicine and fallen asleep as soon as I started;;'
This is on a field teeming with wolves that can be used as a hunting point.
But as soon as the round starts, I take the Attack Sleep Potion and fall asleep right away.
Even for users who have been accustomed to this cruel game, the boy's suicide method brought a fresh shock.
'Nanjuktaek'
'Oh, don't drip, it's serious'
'If he dies like this, it's a national loss'
'Hey baby!!'
'Don't Fall Asleep!!
'Wake !!! Up'
'Inna !!!'
'Stop it, listeners, I can't hear you anyway'
'Ha ha ᄏ ᄏ ᅲ ha ha'
The boy fell into a lethargic state of sleep.
Even if you're lucky enough to escape the wolf's eyes, the sight of the other 499 contestants could be the end of your five-minute life.
Without any resistance, he easily filled in the kill points of others.
'Aren't the management crazy?'
'What a waste of talent; Why do you take medicine and kill me when you're so happy to look at me?'
'I'm not dead yet'
'How many hours does the Sleep Potion last?'
'If no one wakes you up, you'll be gone for a day...'
'What's the Really'
'Everyone's status window opens!'
Five minutes later, the status window for new characters opened to real users.
Hundreds of fingers were scrolling through a character's status window almost simultaneously. And everyone was speechless.
[Name] Acata / [Lv] 1
[Gender] Male / [Age] 15
[Intelligence] Upper / [Murderous] Lieutenant
So far, so normal.
[Health] 4 / F
[Strength] 3 / F
[Dexterity] 8/F
This is where I started to lose my sense of normalcy.
'Huh... Hey status window bossem'
All the viewers who were already there saw it. Everyone was stunned by the combination of numbers and grades they had never seen before.
'The management team is really too much'
'They just drive you away and give you stats like crap'
'Is life fair...?'
Previously, the management team had released their own standards on the website so that users could gauge the basic stats of each character.
Examples were as follows:
<Strength stats>
F = Spoon
E~C=Normal Level
B = Athlete
From then on, each additional '+' will increase by 100 kg.
S = level that lifts a car
There has never been a character with an S rank yet, but this was the first time a character with an F rank has appeared.
'How do you live with a spoon!!'
For a moment someone screamed into the text.
'Oh, is that why you're trying to kill yourself...?'
'I don't think there's an answer to my specs...'
Everyone was silent. I don't know how I could be so humble against a game character, but the chat was almost like a funeral hall.
Someone had a different opinion.
'Isn't it an event?'
'If you want it from the top characters who are headhunting, take it...'
'We're possessed, too, and so are the characters.'
'Wouldn't they want to have something like Shemarin?'
Isn't she a man with a pretty face and too young?'
"What is the use of the Erkata other than the face, the military picks?"
'?face!! It's fucking important!!
'ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha'
'It's an F-grade shock, but ha ha, it's not that serious'
"The lower the grade, the lower the gap between the grades, so it's easy to get an F grade up to a D. It's hard to get up there."
"But in the midst of all this, you really look crazy... How did you come up with graphics like this? Is the number 1 male actor Canhar also the most handsome movie star in the world? This is how it was, but Acata isn't just a person. Cosmic beauty. If anyone asks me what Narcissus looks like in Greek mythology, I will answer Erkata.'
'ha ha ha ha is so mysterious'
Never before has a character with such desperate stats.
Even the most enthusiastic viewers who had been reading the status window of all the characters released before the game opened were the first to receive an F grade.
I thought it was just a theoretical rating.
In fact, unless someone from the top characters came to scout for him, it seemed that Erkata's survival would be untenable.
'Gather the people who will watch you sleep'
'I'm going to stay here until the end of Round 1.5 live'
'10 hours of airing today'
'I'm going to die before I do it anyway.'
'Ahh
Viewers have finally given up on the survival of Akata. Resigned, more and more people wanted to look at the angelic boy's sleeping face.
'Baby, I got dirt on my hands, Gigi'
'I didn't even know it was dirt...'
'Ha ha, why is it that I'm 15 years old?'
'15 is the youngest in the game. Then baby'
''
* * *
The start of round 1.5.
I chose Zoro Gio and Canal to bring the subsidiary characters.
Visit freёnovelkiss.com for the 𝑏est n𝘰vel reading experience.
The actual activity can be considered only as a canal. Gio wasn't going to be of much help in selecting the characters, so he was just sent as an escort.
In the observatory, I put the cams of the guild members and the cams of the new characters on a large monitor that fills up three sides.
There was a total limit of three players, so one more person could still participate in the round, so I was going to watch the situation here and then go out myself.
After I left, Cannell and Lyrit were going to take over the observatory.
The communication between the player who entered the game and the characters who remained in the fortress is roughly structured in this way.
First of all, the characters in the observatory can't transmit their voices to the game field.
However, characters in the field can shout into the air and ask for remote support from the observatory. It is a one-way communication.
The guild leader was the exception.
["Rudel, when are you coming?"]
"Well, look. Maybe you don't have to go."
On the other hand, the guild leader was able to communicate with the guild members who went out to the field from within the observation deck through the status window.
This was true even when the guild leader was out in the field.
"Canal, I'll hang up for a minute. I've got some questions for you."
["I see."]
Guild leaders can also communicate with guild leaders of other guilds. Of course, you're free to accept it.
However, I believe that the person I am communicating with will definitely accept.
["Rudel!"]
Sure enough, the voice of the saint who had been contacted was palpable.
["It's been a while. It's nice to see you like this just by your voice."]
"Ugh, I'm glad to see you."
["Actually, I wanted to go see you, but I couldn't."]
"Why?"
["The Vice Guild Leader has prevented me from going. In the turbulent period when the guild was just founded, if the guild leader was absent, his discipline would be shaken, so what would he do.......?"]
If you're the Vice Guild Leader, you'll be the short-haired girl I met last time.
The one who punished the characters who attempted to assassinate Aleon in the first round and decided to become his bookkeeper.
Did I mention her name is Yprea?
"Well, that's true. Now that we've opened the 1.5 rounds, let's focus on selecting the sub-characters. Oh, so Aleon."
Naturally, I got down to business.
"What criteria did you use to select players?"
