Chapter 256
Chapter 256
At the top of the tower in the center of the castle, there were several men sitting inside . They ranged from a man dressed in ordinary clothes to fully armed knights .
‘Why am I here . . . ?’
Hyeonu looked at the men sitting in front of him and pondered on why he was sitting here . He was just trying to get some information . . .
“Hah . . . ” A deep sigh emerged from Hyeonu’s mouth .
Just then, a man dressed in colorful clothing came in and sat in the chair opposite Hyeonu . The man gave off the air of a noble . The identity of this man was Liu Yongyun, who was in charge of the city where Hyeonu was currently located . Liu Yongyun had been handling official duties as usual, but he rushed over after hearing that there was a self-proclaimed nobleman from the West Continent who had crossed Mount Cheon .
‘It isn’t a lie that he is a noble . His dignity is so high that I would believe it if he said he was royalty,’ Liu Yongyun thought .
Here, Hyeonu’s high dignity stat exerted its strength . It gave Liu Yongyun the perception that Hyeonu’s status was extraordinary .
“You said that you crossed Mount Cheon . Is this true?” Liu Yongyun was polite as he asked for confirmation from Hyeonu . It was to prevent any misunderstandings .
“Yes, that’s right . I’ve crossed Mount Cheon . ”
“You called yourself a noble . Can I ask which kingdom you are from and what title you have?”
Hyeonu paused before he answered Liu Yongyun’s question .
‘I have to say my name, but it is a secret . ’
Hyeonu’s name was a secret . He should never forget that while he was streaming . The name ‘Gang Hyeonu’ might be common, but it wasn’t necessary to announce it before his professional gaming debut . It would be known on ‘that day’ .
Hyeonu urgently wrote in the chat window, -I have to turn off the sound for a while . I’m sorry .
It was an enclosed space, so he couldn’t speak to the viewers without being heard by Liu Yongyun .
-Ah, why again?!
-What is it this time?
-Isn’t this between us? Eh?
The viewers were running wild, but Hyeonu was no longer paying attention to the chat window . It was something he had done more than once, so he didn’t hesitate for long .
“There is only one kingdom in the West Continent . Yusma is the only empire in the West Continent . I am Gang Hyeonu of that empire,” Hyeonu responded in a polite but dignified manner .
“The only empire, Yusma . . . Gang Hyeonu?” Liu Yongyun cocked his head at the familiar name . “Gang Hyeonu . . . Does the West Continent have a similar language system?”
Of course, it was the same game, so the language used could only be the same . However, Liu Yongyun had no way of knowing it . That’s why he asked .
“It is the same . There is nothing different about the words . ”
It was natural . This was a game with the same background, so the language used couldn’t be different . It would be the same when the Demon World was released later .
“By the way, I’m also an adventurer,” Hyeonu added .
“Adventurer!!” Liu Yongyun’s face was full of surprise .
Adventurer—Liu Yongyun was familiar with this existence . However, he had only seen mention of it in literature, so this was the first time seeing it in person . Adventurers were monsters that wouldn’t die—beings from an unknown place who became stronger quickly in a special way . Most of them had a good mentality, and friendly relationships could be formed as long as there was adequate compensation . Still, their growth might be fast, but there was a limit . Nevertheless, it wasn’t a big problem to use technology to make up for insufficient power .
‘It must be . . . ’ Liu Yongyun wondered how strong this adventurer must be to cross Mount Cheon alone .
“Are there many adventurers like you?” Liu Yongyun asked carefully with a serious expression .
Hyeonu replied a bit mischievously, “I’m the most outstanding among adventurers . The strongest person without any disagreement—that is me . ”
“This isn’t a joke, Viscount Gang Hyeonu!” Liu Yongyun raised his voice when he noticed the playfulness in Hyeonu’s words .
Hyeonu’s words were mischievous, but he wasn’t lying . Rather, it was close to the truth . No, it was the truth itself .
“Who said it is a joke? It is obvious . I have confidence that I won’t blink at all even if hundreds of adventurers flock to the city . ”
The moment he finished speaking, Hyeonu released a hidden pressure, and a black-red energy emerged from the top of Hyeonu’s shoulders . It was a mixture of fighting energy and magic power .
Silence fell .
Liu Yongyun’s escorts and the ordinary officials couldn’t speak due to the pressure Hyeonu gave off . Only Liu Yongyun was unaffected .
“You naturally deserve to say that . Please restrain your pressure,” Liu Yongyun said, apologizing to Hyeonu . “Then I will introduce myself to you . Viscount Gang Hyeonu, my name is Liu Yongyun . I am the third imperial prince who was given the mission to protect the empire from Mount Cheon . ”
Liu Yongyun revealed his true identity—the third prince of the only empire on the East Continent, Yuxin .
‘Emperor? There is an emperor in this place? Shouldn’t he be in the palace?’ Hyeonu felt dizzy for a moment .
An imperial prince . . .
Why was the imperial prince here? Moreover, he had directed pressure at the imperial prince . . .
“I apologize for my rudeness a little while ago . Please forgive me . ” It was Hyeonu who bowed his head and apologized this time .
Liu Yongyun waved his hand, refusing Hyeonu’s apology .
“Why apologize when you didn’t do anything wrong? It was my fault that I didn’t properly disclose it from the start . By the way, what is your reason for crossing the mountains?” Liu Yongyun asked to change the topic .

‘Changing the topic? Can I turn on the sound now?’ Hyeonu wondered .
Liu Yongyun wouldn’t call out Hyeonu’s name anymore since he had given his full name . It was clear that Liu Yongyun would only use ‘Viscount’ if he were to call out to Hyeonu .
‘Let’s turn on the sound first . ’ Hyeonu turned on the sound for the stream, which had been blocked for several minutes .
Then he started responding to Liu Yongyun’s words, “There is great curiosity about the East Continent . I said I was going to the East Continent, so His Majesty, the emperor of the Yusma Empire, wrote a diplomatic letter . It will be handed over to His Majesty, the emperor of the Yuxin Empire . Would you like to see it?”
Hyeonu pulled out a white scroll from his inventory .
“How can I see it first before His Majesty? I’ll give it to His Majesty later . Viscount, if it is like you, then His Majesty will be very interested . ” Liu Yongyun created an atmosphere like he was going to retreat . Now that Hyeonu’s identity and reason for appearing was confirmed, it could be said that the purpose of this meeting was fulfilled .
‘I have to contact His Majesty first,’ Liu Yongyun thought .
Nonetheless, this was just his situation . Hyeonu still had business to discuss .
“Do you have something like a map? As you know, this is my first time in the East Continent . I don’t know where to go . ”
In fact, he still had a lot to say . There was a lot to gain after all .
***
-An authentic begging stream .
-No, no, it is ripping him off .
-Begging is demoralizing . Let’s say he has been sponsored .
Hyeonu received a lot from Liu Yongyun, who was in a hurry . There was a map of the East Continent, even though it wasn’t detailed and was roughly drawn, as well as return amulets created by the East Continent’s shamans . In addition, there was a gold plaque representing the quests of Yuxin’s imperial family .
‘It is so-so . ’
It was a blessing in disguise . The thing Hyeonu had thought would be a mere waste of time brought him such luck .
‘There is the gold plaque, so quests are a separate matter . . . Should I enjoy it now?’
“Everyone, shall I go and take a look around? The name of my current location is Yuanyang and it is similar to Derek Castle on the West Continent . It is in charge of the borders . Therefore, the city is quite big . There is a lot to see . ”
Hyeonu started to experience the East Continent in earnest . He noticed during the last stream that the viewers reacted greatly to such trivial things . It was probably because they couldn’t see and experience the East Continent personally, so they could only speculate and feel satisfied through Hyeonu’s stream .

-Go go go go .
-Let’s go to Yuanyang .
-I think I’ll only watch this today .
-Let’s feed Tang-E first .
“So shall we start with food first?”
-Go go go go .
-Feed Tang-E too!
Tang-E had changed into his human form at some point under the viewers’ persistent demands and was standing next to Hyeonu .
“I have to take off my mask, so I’ll be changing the perspective,” Hyeonu said .
Then he synchronized the streaming with his own vision while removing Crasul’s Curse .
‘What should I eat first?’
Yuanyang had many street stalls, and they sold all types of food . All the street food in the world seemed to have gathered here . They ranged from tteokbokki to dumplings, takoyaki, sausages, kebabs, waffles, and so on . Yet all of Tang-E’s attention was focused on the meat . To be precise, it was the whole pig barbecue .
‘Was he that impressed with the wild boar meat he ate last time?’
Tang-E couldn’t remove his gaze from the whole pig barbecue . It was as if his soul had been sucked in .
-What are you doing?! Go ahead and buy him meat!
-Tang-E wants to eat barbecue right now!
-Is it because you don’t have money?!
-Tang-E is Cute has gifted you 651 gold coins .
-Tang-E is the Best Best has gifted you 93 gold coins .
-Accomplished Tang-E has gifted you 164 gold coins .
-This is the money for our Tang-E’s meal .
-We are responsible for Tang-E’s meal!

-It is the shout of Tangsamo (the group of people who love Tang-E)!!
As Hyeonu hesitated for a moment, the viewers guessed the situation and threw gold coins at Hyeonu . It was money for Tang-E’s meals, but the amount was too high just for food .
“Everyone, do you want all three meals a day to be luxurious? So many gold coins for Tang-E’s meals . . . ” Hyeonu was full of courage as he talked to the viewers . Nevertheless, viewers weren’t frustrated .
-Yes, so what? I have a lot of money .
-I have a lot as well .
-I have more, so what is Alley Leader worried about?
“I understand . . . Tang-E, tell me if there is anything you want to eat . ” Hyeonu grabbed his trembling right hand and smiled warmly at Tang-E .
“That, I want to eat that . ” Tang-E pointed to the whole pig barbecue .
Hyeonu approached the stall with the whole pig spinning around and ordered meat, “Auntie, give me two servings of this . ”
“This young man, you are very handsome . That child over there doesn’t seem like your son . Is he your younger brother? Your little brother is really cute!” The merchant said, praising Hyeonu as he ordered food .
-I admit that Tang-E is cute . . .
-She said that Alley Leader is handsome?
-Can a NPC lie?
-It can’t be . . . Our Alley Leader can’t be a handsome man! This is betrayal!!!
The merchant’s praise was a dagger in the hearts of some viewers . It left some audience members with a greater curiosity . Hyeonu had an appearance that was praised by NPCs . . .
This went against the logic of reality .
The merchant told Hyeonu, “Now, I’ve packed a lot . Don’t fight . Share it with your little brother . ”
Hyeonu’s plate contained an unimaginable amount for two servings .
-This person’s attention to appearance . . .
-I want to go to the East Continent as soon as possible . I want this service .
-Yes, let’s wake up from the dream .
Tears flowed from the eyes of some viewers .
