“Breaking news! The season of ‘Descent of the Plague Lords’ has just ended! The number one player ranking is Korea’s Kang Yu-seong!”
“Hold on to the number one player ranking for all four seasons! Top Strategy Number 1! Unrivaled first place in all levels, equipment, skill achievement scores! “This is truly a performance worthy of a hero among heroes!”
As I was reading the messages pouring in like a flood, I heard the sound of a camera flash going off.
To take more pictures and capture the images of the heroes sitting in front of them.

“On behalf of all the heroes gathered here, may I ask you to say a few words to Mr. Kang Yu-seong?”
UN Assembly Hall, Geneva, Switzerland. In the heat of reporters filling the room, player Kang Yoo-seong slowly turned his head. A blonde woman in a suit sitting right next to Yoosung lowered her voice.
“Yoosung, please say something kind, even if it’s something you don’t like. “I’ll ask you this, okay?”
Maria Jaeger is one of the top players, better known by her nickname, La Pucelle.
A total of ten men and women, including Saint Mary and Yoosung, were there.
Top players within the top 10 in the rankings as of the end of the season. These are the heroes who are said to have saved the world after it became a game.
“Please give us your thoughts on your heroic performance in risking your life to protect the world!”
The reporter spoke and Yoosung reluctantly
moved his face in front of the microphone.
“I am,”
Kang Yu-seong, the pinnacle of players and the unrivaled top ranker, slowly opened his mouth.
“It ended a fucking long time ago.”
“Yes...”
“I’m doing it for money.”
“What did you just say?”

Murmur. At those words, there were whispers everywhere. Maria, who was sitting right next to me, had her face turn leaden. “So, when you leave, buy me a shitty T-
shirt and a poster. That’s it.”
“It looks like Yoo Yoo-seong has become a little nervous. Please understand. Protecting the world is not as easy as it sounds, right? After overcoming the danger of death several times, people have become a bit cynical and have become a bit cynical in many ways. As for the situation...
“What's wrong with my condition? Is there anything in this world more important than money?”
As Yooseong was about to say something, the saintess hurriedly stopped him by kicking her shoe. The murmurs among the reporters grew even louder. “Enough of that, saintess. It is a
global waste to pay attention to such a small country’s poor man.”
At that moment, another player sitting together opened his mouth. He was a black-haired man of Chinese descent.
Ray Chang, the 3rd ranked Sword Master in the player rankings.
“As everyone can see, Kang Yu-seong has no qualifications as a player. He has no mission or anything. “A brat with no pride is lucky enough to be in that position. In the first place, it is absurd to even dare to call such a street bastard the ‘King of Heroes.’”
“Ah, I agree. I’m so embarrassed by that nickname that I can’t even wear it.”
“A bastard from a small country who does not know the pride or mission of being a player is always talking loudly.”
“Oh my, my friend, who has such a strong sense of duty, happened to use the kids as meat shields and run away like that.”
“What do you mean!”
“Are you saying that the sword lord abandoned the guild raid party and ran away alone in the Plague Lord raid?” A
bewildering question arose among reporters at the unexpected revelation.
“The survivors of the hollow guild raid said. The sword lord was the last one to die. “Didn’t you say that you fought valiantly for your subordinates without giving up?”
“That’s because the friends who told the truth there are all in the human body mystery exhibition by now.”
Yooseong shrugged his shoulders and mocked him, and Geomju’s expression froze. In front of this unexpected and shocking revelation, whispers continued in the hall.
“How dare this damn Goryeo bastard...!” At the same time, the air around the sword began to swirl like a storm. But it was at that moment.
“Both of you, leave it at that.”
Another player intervened, and the turbulent air around the area calmed down.
“What kind of disgrace is this when the whole world is watching?”
Georg Billmeyer, the gravekeeper ranked second in the player rankings.
His charming voice rang out, and there was silence as if he was literally walking by the grave.
In the silence, the sound of camera flashes echoing endlessly.
” Anyway, we successfully defeated the Plague Lord through the sacrifices of the ten heroes here and countless guild players from all over the world. And that victory was only possible thanks to the ‘Hero King.’ Whoever would deny that is In other words... An
elderly German man with his hair all white said with a haggard look on his face,
“This world, including all of us players, owes our lives to player Kang Yoo-seong.”
.......
This player appeared like a comet in the previous season of “Wastelands of the Dead” and ranked within the top 10 players, and in the next season, he surpassed Sword Lord and took second place in the rankings. At the same time, he created player items
and CEO of Artifact Company, a multinational company that boasts an absolute position in the processing industry.
“However, if Kang Yoo-seong says it is over, the performance of the player ‘King of Heroes’ will end here.”
The grave keeper asked. A creepy, deep voice rang out, and all the reporters' attention focused on Kang Yu-seong.
“Mr. Kang Yu-seong! Can you clearly state your position here, as you said? About the player's mission...
” “Not everyone in the world works so hard because they are burning with a sense of duty.”
Kang Yoo-seong answered. It was an immediate answer without the slightest hesitation.
“Everyone is just trying to make a living when it ended a long time ago.”
One day, the world suddenly became a game. Really without any warning. In
the first season, “End of Peace,”
all kinds of large and small towers were created in cities and streets around the world, covering the sky, and after a while, monsters emerged from the towers. They poured out and slaughtered people indiscriminately. Everyone had no doubt that the end of the world was approaching.
But players appeared in the midst of the chaos.
Only then did people understand that the world had become a game.
For the players, He has the supernatural power to hunt monsters and then attack the tower.
After that, if he does not attack the tower within a certain period of time, a situation called a tower break will occur and the monsters in the tower will pour down to the ground. As a result, players were literally reborn as heroes of the world, capturing the tower before the tower break occurred and protecting peace in the area. Immediately, most of the top 10 players, including the sword lord and the saint, were this
. Because they were the players of the first season.
Anyway, the world was on the verge of destruction, but at the same time, order
was somehow restored through the players' activities. At the end of that year, the first season ended safely and I thought that peace had finally been restored.
The following year... .Until the 《King of Heroes》 season began. After
the new season began, the threat was at a level that was incomparable to the first season. It did not take long for hope to turn into despair. The
fate of the world was at stake. The game is not over yet. And even this will not be the end.
The appearance of top player Kang Yoo-seong also happened around that time.
King of Heroes. Successors: Waste of the Dead. After that, after the end of the fifth season, “The Descent of the Plague Lord” Not long after,
a brief period of peace came before Christmas Eve, and in the long-awaited peace, Kang Yoo-seong cursed softly. While
flipping through the news articles that decorated the front pages of various portal sites.
— Player Kang Yoo-seong “I used to be so fucking old.” It's over. When you go out, buy a shitty t-shirt.” A scandal over the rude remarks
- UN Secretary-General Kim expresses ‘deep concern about the act of mocking the player's mission' in response to top player Kang Yoo-sung's harsh words
- Boycott of King of Heroes' shitty T-shirts spreads around the world Store owners are embarrassed
- suspicions spread that they abandoned the guild raiding party during the Sword Lord Plague Lord raid and ran away...
“Oh, what a plague...
I clicked on the first news and scrolled down, and as expected, the comments were pouring in like an explosion.
1- The hero born of capitalism
L Live broadcast around the world Nopaku drip joker
L Not a legend, but a legend
L To be honest, I don't know many players who have heard of it, but isn't it a bit plausible to be like the King of Heroes and do that? (Delete) (Edit)
L Yes, narrow down the angle for the next King of Heroes.
L Don't do this here, go sell t-shirts.
[The provocation value increases significantly!]
[The Clown Lord expresses satisfaction with the contractor's actions!]
Followed comments As I was reading, a hologram message blocked my vision again. Kang Yu-seong cursed under his breath as he read the message quickly.
Elder.
They are gods and transcendents who look down on the players on the ground from the highest point of the tower and give them strength and joy.
Lords test and taunt players, sometimes giving them rewards commensurate with their tests.
For example, usually the player makes a contract with a certain lord and receives his power.
And among them, the ‘clown monarch’ who extended the hand of contract to Kang Yoo-seong was a very special being.
This monarch is in itself a useless monarch. As the contractor's ridiculous behavior or provocation level increases, faith increases and all you can do is giggle.
But the price of making his monarch laugh was anything but light.
[Multiple monarchs express their satisfaction with the Jester Lord's contract!]
[The Iron Lord laughs brightly and bestows the blessings of the ‘Sword Sharpener'!]
[Sword Sharpener's aptitude increases significantly! ]
[The Frost Lord chuckles and bestows the protection of the ‘Winterbringer’!]
[Aptitude for cold magic increases significantly!]
Oooh.”
There is only one monarch that an average player can contract with. Even signing this double contract with two monarchs is an extremely unusual case. The top 10 players called heroes were no exception.
Except for only one shooting star.
I thought about the price I gained after inciting global aggression at the UN Assembly Hall that day.
[The provocation value rises amazingly!] [The Lord of Gold and Legends is in awe and bestows the blessings of the ‘one who sees legends’!] In front of him, there are those who are worthy of being pointed at as pigs by capitalism
and remain. It was work.
And actually, it wasn't necessarily that wrong.
