Dark Storm in System World
Many were shocked and amazed at the incident. However, most of the players say that it is some kind of cheat and others said that it is a bug. Even some of the well-known guild complained this matter since well-known players especially the rank S players are fighting to get points.
Might One: I’m fighting this two master guilds but this Clint21 ruined it! Our competition was ruined because of him. The system needs to remove it to prevent this bug from spreading.
Many are talking about this issue. The news is hot especially in the comment sections.
(Comment Section)
Lolit: The username Clint21, I keep seeing that name in the world notification. At his level it is impossible for that to happen.
Kausu: The Rank S players competing against each other until they totally destroyed by a Rank unidentified level 3 player. Hahaha! (Picture of Ramsey Gordon – 'Damn, what a shame.')
Mani: Seeing that name in world notification repeatedly, and seeing him again in Ranking System as a rank 1 player? It looks like a cheat to me.
RealCheater: I never ever cheated in my whole life even in this well-secured virtual game. This Clint21 is definitely a hacker and a cheater.
RealTaxi: You’re right #RealCheater! Just by the sound of your username, I know that you are telling the truth.
Due to the heating issue, the System send a notification that all players can read.

World Notification
About 1000 System World developers are on duty and watch the program every 24 hours. We developers found no bugs, hacks or cheats in the program. We also watched the full video of player Clint21 from the time he entered the game to the present but we did not see anything strange in his moves. All we see is a smart, enthusiastic, talented and strategic player battling high leveled monsters. For players wondering why he earned 100,000 colossal crown points, there is only one answer. He entered the Continent of Calamity. If you do not know what Calamity contains, please see the information at this link: (Click here)
Players look at the link and there, they realize the rewards available to high leveled monsters in Calamity.
“Wow! I didn’t notice this! I know now why Clint21 can kill 50 monsters at level 1.”
“You’re right! Clint21 didn’t focus on level and gold but from a random stats.”
“If you kill those high leveled monsters like a white gargoyle, you can get 1 random stats, 1 exp and 1 cooper.”
“Clint21 just thought of the whole month getting random stats on various high leveled monsters even if it took him a few hours to kill just one or two of those.”
“I want to go now to Calamity. If we were there, we would always get a random stats by killing those monsters.”
“The problem is that we can no longer enter there. Unlike in other continents, we can travel there except for Calamity.”
“What!? Why?”
“The continent is only for a new players whose chosen place is Calamity. And one more thing, you only have one life on that continent. When you die, you will spawn on another continent.”
“But there is an event today today that you can farm a bunch of random stats, the Colossal Crown! Let's go before it disappears!”
“Okay!”
‘Justice Guild Association Building’
The guild members in their respective guilds held a meeting because of the incident.
Astrea: We do not know that such incidents occur. We can do nothing but wait for that player to come out of Calamity since that continent is restricted only for a players who entered that place as a newbie.

Ming: That man! Everything we made last 4 days was lost because of him!
Astrea: Don’t worry Mr. Ming. It's not too late. There is still a vacancy on Rank 2 and the World Boss is still alive.
Schlee: What is the plan now, father?
Astrea: It’s easy. If a Rank S dungeon is found, we will go there to raid it. While there is nothing to look for, we will go to World Boss to get Rank 1.
Secretary: What about Clint21, Sir? Aren’t you scared when that player comes out on the continent?
Astrea: That’s why we need to guard the edges of the continent. When he leaves the continent, approach him immediately and do everything you can to invite him to the guild.
Secretary: Noted sir.
Clox: That man is dangerous! Mister, if he stays there in a few years, think about how many stats he has accumulated.
Astrea: Hahaha! That’s impossible! According to Calamity law, the status of monsters there increase every 100 monsters he has slain. The increase of monster’s stats is so high to the point that there power is equal to the strength of the world boss.
Schlee: No way! There’s no way that Clint21 will able to survive those monsters.
Astrea: So, we must wait for now because he will die soon.

I killed 100 level 225 and 100 level 300 monsters by now. Then in my computation...Hmm...I got 50K plus but according to the event written, the rewards are doubled in Calamity. I must have 100K plus colossal crown points. By the way, let’s check the gifts now!

I do not yet know what Storm World means because Luke did not mention it to me. It looks like no one has discovered it yet but if I look at my map, I can see now that there are many storm icons not only on the continent, it exist also under the ocean. There are 1...2...3...Hmm...26 Storm Worlds on this continent. Let’s figure it out someday. I’ll open this gift for now. Open!
A large golden gift appeared in front of him. This red ribbon was removed and it opened. Afterwards, the whole gift disappeared and a screen appeared in front of him.

What? These sets of costumes are made by angels. How can I wear these if I will conquer Calamity as a demon emperor? It’s weird if the old man sees that his disciple is dressed in white as an ally of angels. Never mind, this is just a game. No hurt feelings to old man. Equip!

‘Heaven Guild Association Building’
Mighty One: What is happening now?
Peter (Rank S Level 127): Half of the group went to the Rank A dungeon. Most of our members got over 150 random stats and increased the level by two to three.
Mighty One: That’s good. We just finish a Rank S dungeon with a low casualties. Most of us got at least 225 random stats and huge amount of colossal points.
Marie (Rank S Level 125): Congrats Sir! Next time, help me farming with stats.
Mighty One: Next time, Marie. For now, I need to surpass Astrea and that Clint21 by helping me last hitting monsters from different dungeon.
Marie: How can you do that Sir?
Mighty One: That’s easy. All I need is to summon 10 angels and divide them in 2 per 1 dungeon. They will automatically kill any monsters that are low health. I already told this to others members. If you look at my status now, it increases every two or three minutes by 1 or 2 random stats.
Marie: Wow! Your status is updating every minute.
Peter: You’re so smart Sir! This will be your chance to step again at Rank 1.
Mighty One: Hahaha, you flattered me! The colossal crown ranking system will update next week. Let’s see how the other guild and that Clint21 will compete this points.
Mighty One | Colossal Crown Points: 325,345 points.
Mighty One: My summoned angels are level 12 since their levels are based on my skill, not my actual level. Even if they leveled up, the maximum level is 20 and I’ll turn it back to level 1 using upgrade. Plus my colossal crown points increase if I cleared some dungeons. I can complete 5 rank A dungeons at once by summoning my angels and aid them by my members for last hitting and clearing those dungeons.
Peter: Sir, not that I underestimate you. But what if we fail? I think Clint21 will make another impossible event in the future. Even though he’s just a player and not a guild, we still can’t underestimate him.
Marie: I agree to Peter, Sir! Achieving multiple impossible events may cause imbalance to this world. Clint21 has achieved several world achievements and impossible quests in just one month. Even we can’t do that but he did it like a badass.
Mighty One: If failure occurs, we don’t have a choice but to recruit him. If we recruit him, all guilds will fear us!
Marie: Why do we need to recruit him later? Let’s recruit him now!
Mighty One: Just wait, Marie. The only thing we can do for now is to clear multiple dungeons and kill the world boss. You two, assign a members who will watch the entrance of the world boss. Nothing should bother us. Tell them to kill any outside player who stubbornly enter that place without our permission.
Peter: What will they do to get your permission?
Mighty One: Just ask them for 50 gold. If they refuse, kill them immediately.
Peter: Noted Sir.
Marie: Okay Sir!
‘Lich Basement’
“Quadruple Critical Slash...Quintuple Critical Slash...”
The dark basement changed into a burning field in the flames created by Clint using his quick footsteps and attacks. Every ground he stepped, creates a fire. Every monster he cut, are being burned by his flames and darkness. Everything he killed, turns into fire.
Clint: Speed Magical Enhancement! Searing Dance Technique!

Wanderer’s stack is full.

You slain a Reign’s Servant – Succubus Level 400.
You will receive 1 all stats, 1 exp and 1 gold.

You leveled up. 3 => 4
Instead of receiving 8 random stats, the system gave me 1 all stats instead. I gained 100 all stats in just 3 days. Now, based on the law, the maximum stats that the system can give is 1 all stats and I killed 100 of them. If I reach the maximum, can I able to enter that “gate”? No...There’s something dark appearing in front of the gate.
A strong dark aura spread all around coming from the front gate. The flames on the ground suddenly disappear with the force of pressure and air blown by a dark aura. A long, white hair, pale skin and dark and strong armor appearing gradually in front of the gate. Scattered black auras and monsters lying on the ground turned into red demonic auras and absorbed by the body of a pale man appeared.
His appearance is complete. He has a long, sharp red demonic sword and the end of it has a black chain, connected around his right arm. He has a strong red aura and there is also a floating black chain with strong violet auras around him. His demonic sword releasing red auras that evaporate, turning it into black auras.
Reign Kaisel – Underworld’s Gate Keeper
Level: 1000 Type: High Demon
Health: 125,900,350 Mana: 90,019,100 Damage: 11,500 Magic: 10,500
That status is not even the strength of a world boss. An overwhelming power that cannot be defeated even if a top 10 well-known guilds united. How did the angels defeated a demons with overwhelming stats? Are angels really powerful? Hmmm...Since they have holy power, I think demons are no match with their spells.
Reign: Impressive future disciple! Even though you’re a human, you manage to slain us with ease. Before we fight, I will introduce myself. My name is Reign Kaisel, the gate keeper of the underworld and Elder Lich’s right hand. Remember, this is your final fight inside this basement. If you defeat me, you can either finish your current quest or...enter the “gate”. Now, tell me your name, human.
Clint: Clint Hein, your future emperor! (Another cringy posture)
Reign: Hahaha! Then let this battle begin. AHHH!
Reign's whole body let out a strong wind and destroyed the entire basement floor. All traps planted are automatically activated by the strong pressure created below the ground. All traps exploded, released many vines, all net traps scattered everywhere and electricity appeared on the ruined ground.
Reign: There’s no disturbance below the ground. All traps eliminated.
Tsk! My traps are useless to him. But as long as I have high damage, I can destroy him. I must avoid all his attacks. One or two hits is my end.
Clint was surprised when Reign suddenly appeared behind him. Clint felt his red eyes that when he looked at him his life was over. Clint quickly spin and strike back.
Clint: Searing Dance Formation!
With my speed magical enhancement, I can kill you without seeing me.
Clint's entire surroundings were brighten by the strong fire that appeared on his body.
“Blink in High Speed!”
At the moment, the ground that Clint left had been destroyed. At his speed he could only see his burning aura in the air approaching Reign.
Behemoth Destruction Technique – Death Whisper!
The ground in front of Reign destroyed in great destruction. It creates a large big hole with his overwhelming attack.
“Quintuple Critical Slash!”
With my 5 high attacks, speed enhancement damage, critical damage, and my applied holy damage, I dealt 1,438,190.6 damage to him. Hmm?
Clint: Wh...What!? How? Why his health bar is still 100%? Is his armor is so high that a million total damage is meaningless?
Reign: You have too many questions, human. I just simply dodged your transcendence twin black dragon technique.
Clint: What? How did you know the Behemoth Destruction?
Reign: I lived for over a thousand years. Training your physical strength outside is meaningless if you do not have any knowledge from the books.
Clint quickly jumped high with his dash. On his high-speed landing, he rise his sword, preparing for brutal attack. Reign simply move his body in half counter clockwise together with his right arm, holding a sword.
“BOOM!”
When the strong force of Clint’s attack destroyed a ground into half, Reign quickly slash his sword embedded of raging souls and pure darkness.
Shit! He can also counterattack?
Clint quickly responds from his counterattack and suddenly blink behind him and slash his sword horizontally. However, without turning his head, Reign suddenly bow, squat and completely dodged his attack easily and use a counterattack again by thrusting his blade to Clint backward. He successfully trusted his sword to Clint stomach. With agonizing shout, Clint use his dash and blink to stay away and make a far distance to him.
Clint: ARGHH!
"Blink"
This is only a game but I can feel a pain! My health bar suddenly reduced to 92%! Another hit with his sword is my death. Wait!
Clint: That stance...You even learned a night eye.
Reign: You’re so smart at your age, human. That’s right.
Clint: Night eye is use to increase the response of oneself by analyzing every situation in a second by seeing. You dodged my attack earlier without turning back your head. How is that possible?
Reign: True Sense Technique, a transcendence form of night eye. If you learn this technique, you can response using your five senses. If you want to learn it, you must know the 4 sense techniques other than your night eye.
Clint: Which means, my behemoth is useless.
Reign: You’re right. Because of sudden change of wind caused your overwhelming attack, I can easily determine where direction you are attacking and simply dodge it.
Clint: Hmm...Is your technique can still response in a second?
Reign: What do you mean?
Clint smile while in pain. A dark aura appeared around his body.
Clint: Nothing. I want to know if you can response and analyze with this technique.
Clint changed his stance like a beast and suddenly charged to Reign.
Reign: I don’t know what stance is that but it’s still useless.
Clint: This is a technique that prevent you from analyzing my attack.
In slow time, Clint point his sword and Reign quickly analyze it through his eyes.
Reign: Hmm...Your attack is predictable...hmm? What is this?
“THUGG...SPLASH...THUGG...SPLASH” A sound of high-speed thrust and blood splash.
Reign: ARGHH!
“THUGG...SPLASH...THUGG...SPLASH”
A very fast multiple thrust hits Reign's body.
Reign: I can see his pointed sword but someone is attacking me that I can’t analyze it completely.
“THUGG...SPLASH...THUGG...SPLASH”
Reign: ARGHH!
Clint: My silent wind is use to enhance my speed through attacking.
Not only I can use this for aiding my behemoth, I can also use this as my main and black twin dragon as a supporting technique.
Behemoth Destruction with silent wind: Power over speed
Silent Wind with black twin dragon: Speed over power
Clint: As I expected! You can only respond and analyze in a second. Thus, you can only dodge and block my attack for every 1 second not my other attacks in every milliseconds.
“THUGG...SPLASH...THUGG...SPLASH”
Reign: ARGHH! You’re saying that someone who’s attacking me is also you? You’re so quick that I can’t see it like a wind but I can't sense it becuase I can't feel its presence and hear the sound of it.
Clint: That’s why it’s called silent. I can kill you without changing any situation.
Reign: I can’t determine the direction of his attacks. The wind is still the same, there’s no sound of any sword near at me but something invisible hits me.
“THUGG...SPLASH...SLASH...SPLASH...SLASH...THUGG...”
