Chapter 171: It could work because I am here (2)
It had been a while since I dealt with the class quest.
Once again I realized that the Battle for the Demon King was really a large-scale event.
I looked at the quest window again.
[Class quest: Gate of Hell]
The extinction of the Arcana Continent.
A new evil wants to take the throne of hell.
But they are overlooking your existence.
The last demon hunter.
Burn the arrogant demons with the flames of hell.
Train your weak body. (Repeat)
Witness the throne that fell into hell. (In Progress)
The moment I saw the content, I could recognize it.
The reason why the demons open the useless Gate of Hell.
Indeed.
The demon kings fell to the hands of the demon hunters,
And the demons seek the throne that fell into hell with them.
So what was the throne?
If it were me in the past, I would have gotten angry, blaming my 10-year gap. But as I said, in order not to sink in pride. I never stopped struggling.
This item was the proof.
[Evil Eyes Telescope].
The evil eyes vision shifted slowly.
To the rising flame of hell.
Towards the throne soaring in the flames.
Nam Taemin, who was watching quietly, opened his mouth.
Is that a chair?
Correct.
To be precise, its the throne of the demons.
Thrones!
The battle for the demon king was the battle for the throne!
Harkons judgment of the situation was correct.
Hakuna looked concerned.
Theyre trying to take the throne, even at the risk of the fires of hell. The throne seems to contain great power. Well, it was a great evil that gave even someone like me a monster-like strength
Hakuna was once possessed by Greed of the Seven Deadly Sins.
There were no battles or fights in the ancient Yusra Kingdom.
Hakuna, the king of Yusra, had no fighting skills. However, even with Hakunas body, Greed of the Seven Deadly Sins revealed the power of great evil.
If I were to express it in the systematic way of Arcana.
The demon who occupied that throne would be elevated in rank to a boss monster. Indeed, in this aspect, the players were quick to notice. Hisagi murmured lowly.
Thats not good.
What are you talking about, Hisagi?
The demon who will endure the fires of hell and take the throne must be strong in their own right. If a monster like that takes the throne
!!!
Thats right.
Lets bring up the Loser of the Western Demon World, Laxioros, for the last time.
If he survived and took the throne.
A level-1,000 named monster would be transformed into a boss monster.
Its worth the risk.
Marcelo made an objective judgment.
Ah, so thats why. I understand now.
Kitch, who raised the questions, also drew a circle with her finger.
Well, the question had been resolved, but the atmosphere became somber.
It was understandable.
The key must be to stop the demons from taking the throne.
The process will not be smooth. The moment we join the battle, we will become public enemies of all demons. Expect from the demons treacherous nature
Harkon and Talim were familiar with war.
The two knights quickly got the point. They might also be considering the possibility of gaining a strategic advantage among the demons fighting for the throne.
Of course, I stopped them.
My pride cant tolerate this.
Go figure, Grandfel.
Rather than expecting something from the demons.
Grandfels pride would rather sink in
But as I said, I wasnt just saying some grandiose words.
I was alive.
Because I was alive, we had a way out.
Why did the battle for the demon king begin in the first place?
Because Akshan was wiped out.
Yes, the battle for the demons was like a double-edged sword to the demons.
They opened the Gate of Hell, which was no different from death, with their own hands.
This was why the battle for the demon king didnt start for a long time.
The natural enemy of the demon hunter is being confident.
It was not like they were being reckless.
How could they do something like that?
But Akshan had been wiped out in the Holy War,
In addition, I, the last survivor of Akshan and the person who had sent Greed of the Seven Deadly Sins and several demon kings to hell, was assumed to have been killed at the expense of millions of demons.
They must have concluded that there was no obstacle to the Battle for the Demon King.
Because they had no idea about the effect of [The Last Adventurer]!
Those foolish demons overlook something.
That was why I shamelessly said it.
I exist.
No, wait a second.
Its wrong, but do you really need to say it in such a grand way?!!
In spite of my screams.
!!!
At those words, everyones eyes focused on me.
When digging the holes I could use, I should have dug out a rats hole too.
I really live a hard life.

Another bomb was dropped on the AAU.
It was because of the letter of cooperation from the new AAU branch.
AAU Yusra branch.
Battle for the Demon King?! What is that?!
Click clack click clack!
The sound of typing continued everywhere.
Sung Hyunjoon and Yoon Sookyum quickly searched through the database.
Sung Hyunjoon shouted urgently.
No, sunbae. There may be information about the Demon World, but is there any information about Hell? Couldnt he be mistaken? Well, Demon World and Hell. It sounds similar!
Like hell, stop talking about such a thing and just search as far as you can.
Senior, the way you pronounce it just now. You didnt just swear at me, did you?
[Hell].
When they searched that word in the database, all that came out was outdated information or settings. For example Sun Hyunjoon opened his mouth.
Epic item setting, Torch of Hell. An item set to commemorate the discovery of the entrance to Hell by the romantic explorer Lorentzk. That specific storyline is under development.
It would be strange if there was a specific setting.
The romantic explorer, Lorentzk, were NPCs that never got realized with only a few simple settings.
And theres one more thing. Demons hunted by demon hunters fall into hell and never get resurrected. No matter what demon it is.
The rest of the information was not much different from that.
Unlike the Demon World, which had at least a basic setting, Hell was really only mentioned.
Sung Hyunjoon bit his lips.
Would this useless information be helpful?
Click clack!
Yoon Sookyum took his hand off the keyboard and turned his chair around.
Its not us who judge, its Player Lee Hoyeol
No, now he had to address him properly.
Its the general manager of the AAU Yusra branch.
AAU Yusra Branch.
Since it was a special branch, it didnt have a branch manager.
The only one in charge of it was the general manager.
The expectations the world placed on Hoyeol were already heavy enough.
And yet Hoyeol carried another burden.
Wow, his position seems like a very important one.
Now even AAU had become dependent on Hoyeol.
There wasnt a lot they could do as a single employee.
Nevertheless, Sung Hyunjoon and Yoon Sookyum wanted to be helpful.
I guess so. Then Ill have to scrape everything and hand it over.
Of course.
Huft
AAU Korea Branch Manager, Park Minjae.
His thought was not much different.
Park Minjae pulled a bunch of documents out of the drawer.
The documents were dusty.
I didnt expect to see this again.
Sk
When the dust was wiped away, the identity of the document was revealed.
[Raymond Sean, transcript].
Its been a while.
Back when Arcana was just a game and he was a Cosmo employee. Park Minjae had formally raised an objection to the sky-like CEO Raymond Sean.
His colleagues reaction?
There was an uproar over what the hell was going on.
Large salary.
Low labor intensity.
Leave on time.
Cosmo was called Gods workplace for developers.
They didnt want anything more, so they didnt want to provoke him for no reason. But Park Minjaes rebellious temperament was not going to stay still.
At that time, I was the type of person who couldnt stand being curious.
Then and now, his biggest question was the same.
Why didnt Rayman disclose the Arcana Continents map to employees and executives? To be exact, he didnt even present the purpose of the play and the framework of the story.
Now that he looked back and thought about it, was he also crazy?
Because I didnt like the owner who only waved carrots.
Well, he supposed that was why he was rebellious.
Park Minjae sent emails directly to Raymond Sean.
He wrapped up his questions with sincerity.
As a result, Park Minjae had an exclusive interview with Raymond Sean.
The conversation of the interview was written on the document.
Sigh. I put it in a drawer and now its dusty.
Park Minjae glanced and opened the documents.
As he looked at it, he recalled the records from that time.
Suddenly, a line caught his eye.
Sean: I think thats the point.
He stopped me with just one thought.
Why not share the purpose and framework of Arcana with them?
He thought he had subtly asked it in his own way.
That bastard was clearly looking into his inner thoughts.
Sean: Because theres no need to.
Really, even looking at it again, it couldnt be anything other than an unlucky statement.
Sean: Theres no need to interfere with whats already completed.
He didnt know what Raymond was talking about back then.
He simply thought that he couldnt get his moneys worth because he was stopped by that snake Raymond Sean.
Even when he had played back at the recorder and secretly wrote the transcript, he had been furious.
But as time passed, he started to understand.
Was it because he got wiser as he got older?
No, it was because of the Cataclysm.
There is no need to interfere with what is completed.
Ever since the cataclysm.
A little more time passed and he saw those words again.
He felt like he could finally understand what those words meant. Well, when you saw monsters and NPCs that only had a one-line setting in the Cosmo database.
Does it mean it had nothing to do with our development?
Park Minjae shrugged.
Well, whats the point of getting angry now?
Raymond Sean was already missing.
It would be impossible to have an interview like that time.
But at least, wouldnt he be able to make some use of it?
Well, theres a saying that you have to know to truly be able to see.
It was like looking at the transcript again and seeing something new.
If it was Lee Hoyeol, who sometimes gave an illusion that he was looking at the Arcana Continent in real-time. Wouldnt he be able to figure out Raymond Seans true intentions from this transcript?
Park Minjae raised the corner of his mouth.
Isnt that right, CEO Raymond Sean?

Yusra Kingdom office.
Currently, the Battle for the Demon King had started on the Arcana Continent.
I was on standby ready to respond quickly at any time.
Clink
Of course, it was impossible for this lofty pride to skip tea time just because of the demons. Still, we came to an agreement with Grandfels taste buds.
In other words, I was giving up the green tea bag that I used to drink for a while and now drinking tea brewed with bi-herb.
Indeed, numbers are just numbers.
Dont tell me that 300-won green tea bags are better than hundreds of thousands of won bi-herbs, Grandfel. After a brief complaint, I checked the documents that had arrived from AAU.
There was quite a bit of paperwork piled up on the desk.
Cheolmin-ssi must have had a hard time.
Nam Taemins brother, Nam Cheolmin.
I entrusted the responsibility of the AAU Yusra branch to Nam Cheolmin.
Because I was the person in charge.
Why did I call myself the person in charge?
If I focused on AAU, my body seriously wouldnt last.
Even just the current schedule was already one hell of a schedule that would have ended long ago if it werent for the World Trees blessing.
As if that wasnt enough, what if, as the head of the AAU Yusra Branch, I had to attend AAU meetings every day?
That would be truly terrible!
So I asked for a new position, general manager.
Still, Im glad I have someone to entrust it to.
Nam Cheolmin was the brain of Gaon and now the brain of the Great Alliance.
I didnt have to doubt his skills.
Whatever it was, he would be better than me in many ways.
Just imagine Grandfel nitpicking at a branch managers meeting.
It already made me feel tired
Without further delay.
I looked at the data that AAU had delivered.
Frankly, I didnt expect much.
I had seen AAUs assets all this time and knew it well.
AAU, the people who explore the corners of creation.
So please dont make it sound too grand, Grandfel.
If you thought about it, what he said wasnt wrong.
AAU was the developer of Arcana in the past.
But, in the first place, they didnt have much information left?
Wait a minute.
From what I heard, it should definitely be that way.
I could see it with my eyes.
Arcana Continent.
[Arcana Continent Biography].
For me who had experienced both worlds.
I knew how to use seemingly useless information.
Your exploration led to [oddity].

A new world event, Battle for the Demon King will begin.
