Episode 94

Chapter 94.

[Kashin Church]

-Member count: 280,735

Kashin Church. A fan cafe meaning a religious order that worships Kaiser as a god.

It was the oldest and most populated among the existing official Kaiser fan cafes.

It had risen so quickly that it was already approaching 300,000 members.

-Isn’t Kaiser really so cool? I’ve completely fallen for him recently.

-You’ve completely become a fan. Well… no one could help but fall for him after watching that video.

-The cafe membership has been exploding over the past few days.

-I’m happy that Kaiser is becoming famous, but… I can’t help feeling a strange sense of regret as a fan.

It was thanks to Kaiser’s recent YouTube video going viral and drawing many people in.

His taciturn and chic personality, his artistic and mysterious control.

His extraordinary ambition of not bending his beliefs even against all guilds and enemies.

Even the mysterious aura he created by wearing a mask that hid his face, adding to his chicness.

Everything stimulated the fans’ romantic fantasies.

However, despite this popularity, they were currently very bored.

-Aren’t you going to upload more videos? ㅠㅠ

-I’m a low-level devotee of Kashin Church who just started fangirling, but isn’t there any content? I want to fangirl but there’s nothing to work with…

-Why is there nothing when we have so many members?

-Sigh… I’m already watching the YouTube video for the 30th time…

-I want to fangirl but why won’t you let me! Please give us videos, photos, anything we can fangirl over!

-Don’t you have at least some anecdotes or something? Why is it so quiet ㅠㅠ

The fans’ expectations were at their peak, but there was no content to satisfy their fandom.

Even searching through videos, all they found were old videos with poor quality they’d already seen, or just that one video uploaded to YouTube.

Photos?

Only distant shots from the Demroc days were available.

A scene of 300,000 fans digging in empty air was unfolding!

There were only a few things they could do.

-Hehe, you all still lack training. Empty your minds and watch the video. Then you’ll reach enlightenment.

-I’ve watched that video over 30 times though?

-Watch it 30 more times, devotee.

-Devotees. But aren’t the hate comments getting too severe lately?

-Sigh, exactly. What are they so dissatisfied about?

Just rewatching videos or gathering among themselves to complain?

Even when they couldn’t stand the excessive hate comments and tried to defend him, those people wouldn’t budge.

-Honestly, Kaiser fans are going too far, right?

-Frankly, all he’s proven so far is reaching 1st place in Raven, right? That’s impressive, but saying he’s greater than the Top 10 Guilds, calling him a god… honestly, it’s uncomfortable to watch.

-Agree, agree. I agree with the comment above. Too excessive.

-I watched YouTube too… He’s skilled, but seeing what Kaiser fans say makes me feel weird.

-For real, I’m not denying he’s amazing. Even though it’s a dead game, he was a legend in that game, so I acknowledge that. But comparing him to the Top 10 Guilds is a bit much, isn’t it? Godseeker and Demroc are in different leagues;;

Instead, they got excited and escalated further, mocking them, and since this had some merit, the number of people taking their side was increasing.

Trying to defend here would only get you called a Kaiser fanboy or Kaiser simp.

So they had no choice but to back down somewhat.

Even though membership had increased, their firepower was insufficient, and public opinion had already shifted to the other side.

-Still, since he opened a YouTube channel, let’s wait a bit.

-Right. Membership keeps growing too. If we hold on a bit longer, there’ll be plenty to fangirl over.

-Ah, I hope he uploads videos soon. What will the next video be?

-Well… I heard he met the Caretaker this time. Maybe he’ll upload something related to that?

-Nah, I don’t think he’d upload such exclusive information.

-Ugh, whatever it is, if he met the Caretaker, he must have gotten something big, so the video won’t be uploaded for a while.

Given the situation, Kaiser’s fans had no choice but to wait quietly.

Usually, the bigger the catch, the later the video would be uploaded. That was when they were lamenting their situation and chatting.

[It’s up! It’s fucking up!]

└?? What’s up?

└My porn!!

└???

Somewhat provocative content. But that wasn’t important.

What mattered now was that the video they thought would take at least a week had been uploaded. All the fans stopped what they were doing and opened YouTube.

-Huh?

-Whoa, it’s real?

-Didn’t he meet the Caretaker? How did he upload it so soon?

-Don’t tell me he’s showing the process in real-time?

To conclude, their hopeful expectations were beautifully shattered.

No matter how bold Kaiser was, he wasn’t crazy enough to do something like that.

[Foul-Smelling Rock Forest, PK Criminal Cleanup Video]

-Kaiser TV

1.47 million subscribers

-Ah, looks like he uploaded this as a breather.

-PK is a common topic though…

Since PK was one of the most common occurrences in Godseeker, battles with PK criminals were content you could find everywhere on YouTube.

Such videos were usually all the same.

Similar beginnings, similar processes, and even similar endings.

No wonder people jokingly said it was like copy-pasting.

Without any special elements or guests, it would normally be content they wouldn’t even glance at…

-What does that matter now? We’re grateful just that he uploaded something.

-Sigh… finally some content to fangirl over.

-Going to watch it right now.

For Kashin Church members who were struggling from lack of fangirl material, such things didn’t matter.

What mattered was simply that Kaiser had uploaded a video.

And it wasn’t just Kashin Church members.

-What, I got a notification and wondered, but a video really went up? He uploaded another one after yesterday’s video?

-PK criminal cleanup? What’s this?

-Isn’t it just a video of catching PK criminals who pick fights?

-Eh… I had expectations because it’s Kaiser, but it’s nothing special.

-I heard you met the Grand Minister, just post about that instead tsk

-Looking at the PK kills you caught or posted, it seems like you really had no sense for good content lol

-Let’s see how amazing it is.

Those who were usually interested in Kaiser, and those who found him uncomfortable.

Everyone became interested in the video for similar reasons.

Though disappointed by the common topic, the name Kaiser ultimately made them click.

And the moment the video started…

“Aaahhh!”

Some man’s scream echoed as the video began,

-What, what is this!

-What did I just see?

-Crazy… this is what PK criminal cleanup meant?

Soon intense reactions burst out.

And it only got more intense as the video progressed.

It had to.

-One against how many exactly lololol 1 vs 17? More like 1 vs 100 at this point.

-But wait, what’s with that orc? lololol Why does an orc butt in every time? It’s hilarious.

-Is that thing a Guardian too? Seems like touching the orc triggers a first strike judgment?

-Ah… so that’s what the rumors about being careful of orcs meant.

-Isn’t Kaiser’s class Swordsman? That looked like a backstab.

-Wasn’t that weapon just now a golden striking? What class is he exactly?

-Wait, what’s with that damage. Isn’t Kaiser in his 20s level-wise? How did he pull off such insane DPS?

It was such a one-sided massacre that the phrase “PK criminal cleanup” couldn’t have been more fitting.

Later on, the PK criminals were literally running away while Kaiser hunted them down.

The orc that always appeared with him, using skills from multiple classes – it was a video with plenty of talking points.

No, setting everything else aside, the control and damage just didn’t make sense.

-This… the guys who’ve been plotting to kill Kaiser are going to be shocked when they see this, right?

-Kill Kaiser and become a star? You’d have to become a star;; to even kill that thing

-??? : Ah, come on over, walking wallets~

-The golden goblins weren’t Kaiser but the PK criminals lololol

-Ah… what a feast for the eyes today, really.

-Yeah, this is it. This is exactly why I can’t quit being a fan ㅠㅠ

A video that was like sweet honey as a reward for fans, but would make those aiming for a quick fortune break out in cold sweat.

But this wasn’t the end.

-Huh? What, there’s another video?

-He uploaded two?

After watching the video, a new video was uploaded as if it had been waiting.

And the moment they checked that video.

-Holy shit!

-Crazy. This is really crazy!

-Orc Warrior of Death solo play? Was this even possible!?

-Wow… wow… wow really wow…

An explosive reaction that surpassed the previous video erupted.

* * *

[Kaiser Takes Down Orc Warrior of Death Single-handedly!]

[Following Hidden Field Boss, Now Elite Field Boss Solo Try?]

[Where Are His Limits! The Ultimate Battle Machine…]

-First time I’ve ever seen a boss look pitiful.

└For real lololol First time seeing an Orc Warrior with battle instinct activated backing away.

└Battle instinct why? Is that surprising?

└Think of it as a trait that leaves only battle instinct. It’s a trait that doubles reaction speed, but he only used that doubled speed to run away lolol

-Kaiser is truly a legend… my heart swells with pride.

-Who’s the one saying it’s too much and uncomfortable? Is this still too much? Still calling him a tryhard?

└All those comments disappeared after the video went up lololol

Ah, that really feels satisfying. I only suck up to them because they’re worth sucking up to, but man, they were throwing such a fit and being so argumentative ㅉㅉ

└Hey hey, I believed in him!

And the news didn’t stop at YouTube.

It spread to search engines and homepages, with all kinds of articles and comments being posted.

The public opinion that praise for Kaiser was excessive had completely flipped in an instant.

It was only natural.

-What? Demroc and Godose are in different leagues? Then who has solo’d the Orc Warrior of Death? At most Top 10 Guild level, and this is still a different league?

└For real, just look at how all Demroc rankers are High Rankers. Isn’t the answer obvious? So frustrating I could die.

└Ah just type “for real lol”

└For real lololol

Solo trying the Orc Warrior of Death was something rarely seen even in Godose with over a billion players.

An Achievement only accomplished by Top 10 Guild masters and a few High Rankers.

Having done it so easily was more than enough proof of skill.

Moreover, the 100 vs 1 legend shown in the previous video added even more weight.

-From now on, if you want to bash Kaiser, do 100 vs 1 first.

-Non-stop relay combat is truly legendary lololol

-Just the loot he picked up, how much is that really.

-But that companion wasn’t a carrier but a Necromancer? Wow, a man who commands nobility… truly a god.

And this news spread not only to players enjoying the game, but to countless guilds as well.

“Orc Warrior of Death solo play? What the f*ck, does this make sense?”

“No matter how I think about it, missing out on him is such a waste…”

“Try contacting him as discreetly as possible.”

“Can’t have it, can’t break it, this is giving me a headache, really.”

Not only small and medium guilds but even large guilds all focused on this video, and the view count swelled uncontrollably like seaweed soaked in water.

Even the Top 10 Guilds, called the owners and core of Godose, were no exception.

“Ho.”

One of the most famous players in Godose. The Most Popular Player currently in existence.

It was the moment the news reached Demroc.
