Chapter 223
In the dense forest of trees, there were places where the trees were cut down to form wide open spaces . The vacant space was surrounded by fences made of cut wood, and there were many people being busy inside . A masked man was bowing and apologizing to a blonde beauty . “I’m sorry . I was wrong, and this happened . ”
Shortly after the sudden contact, Reina received a visit from Alley Leader for some reason . She was even more flustered when he apologized to her like this . Reina opened her mouth and said, “If you do this . . . You have to tell me what’s going on . ”
Hyeonu explained, “I heard that a few members of the Warriors were PKed . ”
It was only then that Reina realized why Alley Leader was apologizing to her .
‘He heard about it . ’
“Thank you for your concern, but I don’t think you should bow for this . ”
Why was Alley Leader bowing his head? Reina became just as angry as when she heard that the team members had been logged out .
Hyeonu shook his head . “No . The biggest problem was my suggestion . This wouldn’t have happened if we had worked together at a leisurely pace . If you wait a bit, there will be good news . ”
“Good news?” Reina asked with confusion .
There would be good news from Alley Leader? She couldn’t understand what he was saying .
Hyeonu disappeared, leaving only these words with Reina: “Yes, I will give you some really good news . Reina, just focus on the Pro League and pioneering the Balder Mountains .
***
Hyeonu immediately logged out and started collecting information . The information he had about Mano was already sufficient . He just needed to gather information on the other two guilds, Zenith and Five Stars .
‘I will show them how tough the Balder Mountains are . ’
Alley Leader would make them tremble . He would make them realize what beggars they were . Hyeonu was strangely determined . It would be better to be tied up with ‘our’ fence than with anyone else . There was no mercy for those outside ‘our’ fence .
Why? It was because Hyeonu was a vengeful man, now and in the past . It would be the same in the future . After gaining a rough understanding of the two guilds, he immediately started writing something on his channel in World .
‘Let’s start with the design . ’
Hyeonu always thought that justification was important in a fight . Why was he fighting them? It wasn’t his decision; he had no choice but to fight . From the moment he was convinced of this, Hyeonu wouldn’t step on the brakes . Instead, he stepped on the accelerator . He was sometimes tired, sometimes courageous .
[A must-read! It is Alley Leader . ]
[-Hello . I am Alley Leader . I’m writing this for viewers who are curious about the main scenario . The stream for the main scenario should’ve started after Alley Leader Academy ended . But now there is a conflict with Zenith, Mano, Five Stars, and some others, and it is disrupting the process . There is a problem, so please understand that the stream for the main scenario will be late by one or two streaming sessions . ]
‘Good, good . ’
Hyeonu marveled at his writing . There seemed to be no writing that was more inflammatory than this . It was all due to the delay in the release of the main scenario, so they were the bad guys . This was the hidden message and topic of Hyeonu’s post . In short, he blamed others for the delay . Hyeonu rolled around on the sofa with a gloomy laugh while the audience who visited Alley Leader’s channel read Hyeonu’s post .
-Yuljae Breaking the News: They’re crazy . Why are they blocking the scenario from progressing by touching Alley Leader? What are they?
-Muscle Muscle Man: We really need to get rid of kids like that . Zenith and Five Stars are complete gangsters .
-Pro Adriper: Yes . They’re nothing but gangsters . Honestly, I don’t understand why people watch their streams . What’s so good about kids who PK for a power trip? I’m furious .
Why were they stopping the viewers from watching the main scenario by interfering with Alley Leader? Naturally, the viewers were furious . There was only one streamer who streamed the main scenario for free in World—Alley Leader . In fact, money wasn’t a big deal . The important thing was that Alley Leader was the fastest . He had an unmatched speed of quest progression . The viewers didn’t want everyone to be slow together . They wanted something fast .
‘Okay . It is a good start . ’
Hyeonu was pleased with the reaction that was appearing . This was enough for now . All he had to do was wait for it to boil over, as long as it didn’t get in the way of him hitting them .
***
Hyeonu connected to Arena and stopped heading for Cruise Mountain . He just started wandering through the Balder Mountains . This was an intended action .
‘I am bait . ’
In Zenith’s case, he was confident they would rush toward him because they already had a record of doing so . Unsurprisingly, his guess was exactly right .
“Hey, who are you?” Someone shouted when they saw Hyeonu’s back as he wandered around .
They couldn’t see Tang-E because Hyeonu was holding Tang-E in his arms . It seemed that only one person was walking .
“Did you call out to me just now?” Hyeonu said .
He had already started recording when he heard their footsteps . This type of activity always gave birth to good content, so recording was a necessity, not an option .
“Who are you . . . ?” The man shouted loudly only to trail off when he saw Hyeonu turning around . It was because this person was too familiar . A man wearing a child’s mask—it was Alley Leader . Moreover, he was holding a bear in his arms . It was Arena’s strongest pet, Tang-E .
“Alley Leader . . . ” The man couldn’t speak properly . He was lost for words when he saw Hyeonu in front of him . Furthermore, he knew the executives of the guild had some friction with Alley Leader not that long ago .
“That’s right . I am Alley Leader . Why did you call me? Based on that mark, you seem to be from Zenith . What is this other guild? I think the guild mark is different . . . ?” Hyeonu was speaking leisurely to a man with white wings on his chest, a guild member of Zenith . Then he deliberately pretended not to know the Five Stars Guild .
‘They will burst with a bit of provocation . ’
Regardless of whether he knew Hyeonu’s intentions or not, the guild member of Five Stars calmly opened his mouth . “I am a member of Five Stars, Alley Leader . ”
“I see . Five Stars—it is very similar to the name of a Korean conglomerate . Five Stars . . . By the way, why did you call me? What do you want?” Hyeonu said .
At Hyeonu’s words, it wasn’t just the two guild members but also the four people standing behind them who closed their mouths like they were zipped up .
‘Ah, why is it Alley Leader?’ The guild member from Five Stars looked like his lips were glued shut .
It couldn’t be like this even if they were unlucky . . .
How did they manage to meet Alley Leader while patrolling around?
“Did you contact the guild leader?” The guild member from Five Stars whispered in such a small voice that only the guild member standing behind him could hear his words .
“The guild leader said he will be here soon, so buy some time,” the guild member behind him replied .
“What is this bullshit? How do we delay him? Don’t talk such bullshit . Jean, what are you saying?” Rook bit his lip and swore at the answer that he got .
Delay Alley Leader—it sounded ridiculous . What type of trick could they use to delay Alley Leader if he wanted to go? Jean, the Zenith guild member, said casually, “We are the same . We are together . Yet I have to delay the time?”
“It is a complete mess here and there,” Rook murmured in a low voice before taking a step toward Alley Leader .
They whispered cautiously, but Hyeonu could already hear everything . ‘Buying some time? Who is going to come?’
Hyeonu smiled strangely and asked Rook who approached him, “Do you have something to say to me? Do you? I’m a busy person . ”
The moment Hyeonu asked the question, Rook decided he didn’t know what to do anymore . The words he was going to say were mixed with some lies, but he couldn’t help it since he had to buy some time . It was up to the guild leader to clean up the mess .
“Our guild leader said there seems to be a misunderstanding with Alley Leader, and he wants to talk to you . ”
“Really? The guild master of Five Stars said that? I see . Then I’ll wait . ”
Rook sighed with relief when Alley Leader responded positively . “Phew . . . ”
However, his complexion darkened when he realized he would have to endure the awkwardness until the guild leader came .
***
Did they hear Rook’s wish? It didn’t take long for the guild leaders of Five Stars and Zenith to appear . The number of people who appeared was six—the five masters of Five Stars and one master of Zenith .
‘Are they all here?’ Hyeonu thought before speaking to the six men who appeared . “Who wanted to see me? I waited a long time because I heard there was a misunderstanding . . . Is it possible for me to have a misunderstanding with someone I’m seeing for the first time?”
Some faces started to distort at Hyeonu’s provocative words . Then the rest of the people whispered, and their original expressions were restored .
“Of course, it isn’t a direct misunderstanding with Alley Leader . I saw the post you wrote on your channel, and I think you’ve misunderstood something . This is why I’m grabbing onto such a busy person,” a man in armor with the mark of five stars on his chest said with a fluid tongue .
This man had great eloquence, but Hyeonu’s speaking skills were never lacking . Hyeonu responded, “Oh? Something like that didn’t happen? It is a fact . Fct!”
“No, there is a misunderstanding . . . ”
Hyeonu interrupted the man’s words . “Really? Then I have one question . Did you have a clash with the Warriors?”
“There was . But that was a misunderstanding . . . ” The man responded by waving his hand .
However, Hyeonu didn’t listen to the end this time . It was more convenient to talk when dealing with this type of person . Hyeonu knew it and said, “Didn’t you PK with the players from the Warriors? Please answer me ‘yes’ or ‘no’ . ”
“There was a situation . . . ”
“Are you saying you did PK them? Are you admitting it now?”
The man was speechless due to Hyeonu’s attitude . Everything he prepared in advance was useless because Alley Leader didn’t want to hear him out .
“I’ll let it pass this one time . The next time we meet in the Balder Mountains, I will punish you with force . The Warriors are my personal allies . Ah! Then what about the Zenith guild leader?” Hyeonu pointed to the man with wings on his chest .
“You should be ready to experience it now . You have a lot of courage, right? Have you forgotten what happened when we met the other day? Or do you think I’m easy?” Hyeonu’s eyes flashed behind his mask .
