“Damn! How many people?!! How many people already?” Tian Hu threw anything he could get his hands on. In the past few days, the guild members who had been struck by the character deletion bet numbered over 10. They were also talented players who could be active in the Hejin Great Mountain Range. This allowed them to defeat Tian Hu’s competitors and take control of the lucrative highest-level item price manipulation. Now, it was impossible. The high-level characters that were the source of his power were gone.

Knock knock. Just then, someone knocked on the door of Tian Hu’s office. “Can I come in?”

“Come in!” Tian Hu yelled nervously.

The man who came in without making a sound greeted Tian Hu, bowing at a 90-degree angle. “President, I have something to say.”

Tian Hu calmed down the moment he heard this. He already expected what this person would say yet he tried to ignore his thoughts. ‘Perhaps...’

“Tell me,” Tian Hu said anyway.

“Six more characters were deleted...”

“Hey!!! Bring those bastards over! I told them not to accept any character deletion bets!”

“They were connected since yesterday and haven’t received the order. I’m sorry.”

Tian Hu calmed his anger again. What could he say if they hadn’t heard his order? Then the ensuing words were enough to make Tian Hu’s anger explode again.

“Alley Leader also asked them to pass on a message—come because he is waiting for you.”

“That bastard!!!” Tian Hu threw all the remaining things. “Gather the kids together right now! I’m going to kill Alley Leader!!!”

During the time when Tian Hu was going on a rampage, Hyeonu was writing an article.

[Today’s streaming is closed. There is a lot of content!!]

[-Something bad happened to me. Now I’m resting in a good place. For more information, watch the video that will be coming on my channel soon.

I will see you on Friday at the Masked Fighting King.]

“This should be fine. Okay.”

Hyeonu immediately posted his message and waited for the reactions. It was instantaneous. Comments exploded on Hyeonu’s post.

-Uh? What is this? Taking a break from streaming today?

-A bad thing?

-I’m going to watch the video.

“Okay, this is how I wanted them to react.”

Hyeonu smiled with satisfaction at the reactions from the furious viewers. It was reassuring. The way the viewers moved in line with his intentions was similar to how students obeyed teachers in school.

[The tyranny and reality of the Aisis Guild.avi]

-Aisis Guild? Who are they?

-I’ve never heard of them before?

-Was there a guild like this?

The viewers’ reactions to the Aisis Guild were generally similar.

Was there a guild like this? It was a natural reaction. The Aisis Guild was a guild that only certain people knew about, so few people actually knew it even existed.

“Yes, look quickly. Watch it and write about it.”

-I have to watch it.

-The video will appear in a few days, but I definitely have to watch it.

The video was shocking. From start to finish, there was nothing that could be ignored. People came to bully Alley Leader yet they were beaten by him. The reactions from the viewers were one-sided.

- ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ They got counterattacked by Alley Leader.

-It is a counterattack. This is truly someone who doesn’t know games.

-Wow, but this is really stressful. This is at the level of slapping on the cheek.

The video didn’t end there though. The short text at the end of the video was the real hit. It talked about how the Aisis Guild was the one who attacked Hyeonu and exposed the identity of the Aisis Guild and its leader, Tian Hu.

-The prices went up because of these jerks?

-I was wondering why they were acting so proudly.

-That Tian Hu jerk is also garbage. A workshop guy does streaming?

-Dog Tian Hu.

“It is the expected response. Good.”

Hyeonu was pleased when he received the expected response. However, some people who doubted Hyeonu’s claims appeared.

-How can we just believe Alley Leader’s words and swear at Tian Hu?

-Yes. The PK is obvious, but shouldn’t we investigate the claim about market price manipulation?

There were viewers with reasonable questions. They said that only Alley Leader was speaking, so it was reckless to spread negative things about Tian Hu.

“They don’t know this. What did they do in Arena? They don’t know anything.”

An eye-catching comment was posted. The smile on Hyeonu’s face disappeared when he saw the comment.

‘In the end, it is a bit lacking.’

Hyeonu expected this reaction, but he still didn’t feel good. It would’ve been better if it hadn’t come out. Then the comments underneath caused Hyeonu to smile slightly again.

-Everyone knows that the Aisis bastards are manipulating the market.

-They are famous among the rankers.

It wasn’t just them.

-Who burst it? God Alley Leader exposed it. Everyone, praise God Alley Leader.

At this moment, some of the most famous people in A-World appeared. There weren’t rankers, but their names were well-known. They guaranteed that Alley Leader’s words were true. However, not everyone believed it. Then a person appeared and settled the situation.

“Eh? Who is this?” Hyeonu was puzzled by the unexpected appearance, but his face soon brightened because it didn’t have a negative effect on him.

-Yes, Aisis is trash. It is also true that they manipulated the market price. I bet my reputation on it.

-I’ll bet my account. It is true. They are famous among professionals and large guilds.

-Gasp, it’s Jin Sijong.

-Ket also appeared.

The king of New World and the eccentric of Arena appeared in A-World. They had visited A-World after wondering why Hyeonu’s streaming hadn’t started yet and saw the video.

“Brother is so cool!”

Public opinion was perfectly focused on Hyeonu. Now they would be called trash if they refuted Hyeonu’s words. Tian Hu was completely caught.

-Tian Hu is trash.

-He must be buried. So far, he has been streaming with a smile.

-Wow, is his face an iron sheet? In the meantime, he’s been laughing while streaming. He should be given the maximum punishment.

Hyeonu quit A-World. Now there was nothing more to see. The stage was perfect, and he just needed the actors to come up.

“Then I should invite the stars.”

Hyeonu started writing again. This article was intended to take a shot at Tian Hu. He would write the perfect story to kill Tian Hu in a live stream.

“It is because of this.”

Hyeonu was more exhausted than he thought. Through his call with Porsche, he discovered the reason why Tian Hu targeted him. There was only one reason. Tian Hu’s sponsorship was canceled. It was common for a contract to not be extended, but the way it was done was a problem.

Tian Hu’s Porsche sponsorship was canceled, and they came to Hyeonu instead. This wasn’t a money issue. It was simply an honor to have the sponsorship of Porsche, a world-class automotive group. Tian Hu’s reason was only this.

‘Honor? What is this measly thing?’

Honor didn’t matter to Hyeonu. Money didn’t matter either. What type of honor was worth risking their life?

“Tian Hu has a lot of money and is looking for fame. However, he doesn’t have any ability.”

He lacked skill. In Hyeonu’s eyes, Tian Hu’s skills were lacking. Honor? He didn’t have the skills to care about that. Instead, he just spent money in a crazy way from buying good skills to good items. His control itself was ordinary. He didn’t know about other people’s eyes, but Hyeonu could see it clearly. Tian Hu’s pure skills couldn’t be corrected using money.

“The problem is that he touched me.”

Hyeonu tapped faster on the keyboard. He would give Tian Hu the honor he loved so much, but that was for when Tian Hu could beat Hyeonu. If TIan Hu didn’t win, he would lose everything in Arena. He would lose his guild, his character, and the honor he loved so much.

***

Tian Hu held the back of his neck when he saw the article Hyeonu posted. He felt furious and wanted to release his anger straight away. “G-Gather the best members right now! Five to six people! I can’t stand listening to this!!”

This was what the article said:

[I have a suggestion for Tian Hu]

[-If you apologize then I won’t mention it again.

So just apologize.

You can shoot a video and upload it.

Isn’t it simple?

P.S. The time limit is two hours. If it doesn’t appear in two hours, there might be another story. ^^]

From Tian Hu’s position, he hated it. He had never apologized in his life. Even if he did apologize, it was to those who were in a better position than him. Tian Hu scorned and despised Alley Leader.

“President, this might work out better,” Rin spoke her thoughts. “Instead of apologizing, why not give him a chance to do a character deletion bet with the guild’s elite? Of course, you will also be involved. President, if you’re present, we’ll be able to win against Alley Leader.”

Tian Hu thought about whether Rin’s suggestion was valid.

‘Gaining the opportunity to get revenge without apologizing?’

He liked it the more he thought about it.

“As expected of Rin. I like this idea. Make a plan right away.” Tian Hu smiled.

This would be enough to deal a blow to Alley Leader.

“I understand, President.”

However, they didn’t know...

The plan they thought would work out well was actually what Hyeonu hoped for the most.

***

[To Alley Leader]

[-I want to say that this was the doing of some guild members and I didn’t know about it.

If you want revenge, I will give you the right to duel with the character deletion bet.

P.S. If you like, I’ll see you at the Colosseum tomorrow at 6 o’clock.]

“Puhaha!” Hyeonu saw Tian Hu’s post and was now in a great mood. It was ridiculous that Tian Hu followed his plan without the slightest deviation.

Yeongchan saw Tian Hu’s post and also ridiculed him, “Do you have the confidence to win a character deletion bet? You have to be careful. Kikik.”

Based on the videos of Tian Hu which were occasionally seen on A-World, the chances of him beating Hyeonu were absolutely zero. Additionally, this was despite Tian Hu’s ability to fight under any condition. It was simply impossible.

“So what will you do now?” Yeongchan finished laughing and asked Hyeonu about his next schedule.

“I will turn on the stream tomorrow and beat him once. Isn’t it the end if he dies? I’ve already deleted the characters of over 20 Aisis kids. Tian Hu is screwed.”

“However, isn’t Kowloon’s Liu Shei friendly with him? Is there any chance he will appear?”

“Liu Shei? He can’t appear,” Hyeonu responded emphatically to Yeongchan’s question.

Yeongchan felt that Hyeonu had already done something. “What did you do?”

“He should be going crazy right now? He is afraid of losing the notice for Masked Fighting King.”

When he heard Hyeonu’s words, Yeongchan became curious.

‘What is this? What does that have to do with this matter?’

The answer didn’t appear no matter how hard he thought about it.

“Why does that have to do with it?”

Hyeonu replied, “Ah, you haven’t seen the contract. If he shows up to the duel, he won’t be able to appear on Masked Fighting King. How can he appear if he is at the center of controversy? He should’ve already abandoned Tian Hu? Let him bite and suck if he has the strength. Tian Hu is now completely isolated. It is perfect.”

Hyeonu smiled deeply.

‘When did this jerk do this?’ Yeongchan got goosebumps all over at the sight of Hyeonu.
