Chapter 595



In the early hours of the weekend, Wearsoft was in full emergency mode.

“What leaked?!”

Chief Operating Officer Akio Tsutomu received news that the Kairal nature of the World Tree DLC for Wagal was leaking right at the end of the alpha test.

First, he hurriedly logged into Virtual Reality to greet the early-bird employees who had already clocked in.

People were huddled in front of a large screen, whispering.

The culprit was audaciously live-streaming the gameplay.

“What kind of audacious person… NoName CEO?!”

[NoName]

[Resonance(???) – Wagal DLC Live Trailer #1]

[Broadcasting Time – 0:04:19]

[Number of Viewers – 130,226]

The executives’ jaws dropped.

Which company has a CEO leaking games directly?!

But despite the emergency situation, the employees’ reactions were far too nonchalant.

“Wow, I’m so pumped right now!”

“I designed that boss concept! What do you think, isn’t it cool?”

The battle was imminent.

Under the command of Count Raikos, the Knight of the Silver Moon.

The knights aligned into formation and surged forth like a wave of cement.

From above, it looked like they were being pressed down by a gigantic press.

But Na-me and her party members were like sharp awls.

[Crafting: Steel]

[Casting: Dirichlet Lift]

Monica’s class was the newly added Geomancer in the DLC.

Go go go go go—

Walls rose up on either side of the soldiers.

The bottleneck formation tangled the soldiers together.

Two girls defended the exit, relying on their swords.

Facing the endlessly incoming 200 knights, the girls stood strong.

Sparks flew as steel clashed against steel.

Golden swords traced arcs, and shields shattered helmets.

In a frontal fight, Na-me was not being overwhelmed but matched blow for blow.

Meanwhile, Adella slipped through the knights’ ranks.

Her lethal dagger severing the joints of the knights.

A slender red line swept swiftly across the battlefield.

Bwaaaaaam!

As the sandstorm kicked up and the knights’ corpses stacked like a mountain.

Monica swung her mace at the last knights trying to climb the walls.

[Casting: Ignis Epoch]

Firing five orbiting fireballs that struck the knights’ heads.

The endlessly oscillating crimson mass set the base ablaze.

At last, Na-me cast her magic.

[Unique Magic – Estasha’s Style No. 1]

[Adella – 200 links]

[Break]

The deeply entrenched magic that had been exploiting the National Exchange Tournament for two whole years manifested at the fingertips of Na-me and Adella.

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical Hit!] ×2

[Critical Hit!] ×3

[Critical Hit!] ×185

The blue sword light cleaved through the ground, while red rain endlessly fell from the sky.

It was genuinely a calamity.

Displaying overwhelming power from the very early stages of the game, Na-me revealed her prowess.

Finally, as if waiting for the moment all knights would fall.

“I thought it would be annoying from the start.”

Count Raikos lifted his magical sword over his shoulder.

Vwoom—

The blue sword absorbed moonlight, growing twice its size.

“O lowly beings of this world, become the will of the sword and manifest.”

Zwooop—

Absorbing the knights’ auras, it grew four times larger.

Then eight times, sixteen times.

Who would dare call such a massive weapon a Great Sword?

Sparks fizzled up from the ground while the moisture in the air dried up from the force.

Count Raikos swung the mountainous siege sword.

The blade heated up red from friction.

Na-me, vividly broadcasting it from the front, smirked.

[No Signal]

The trailer screen went black.

“What’s going on?! Why did it turn off?”

An executive cried out.

Rumble…

All that could be heard from the broadcast was the sound of a storm.

“There’s no problem with communications! It seems it turned off on the CEO’s side!”

Whooosh!

The screen flickered back on.

In that time, Count Raikos executed a charge pattern.

In one swift motion, he closed the distance and thrust his sharp sword toward Na-me’s neck.

[No Signal]

Back to darkness.

But when the drone screen came on, Na-me stood tall as if nothing had happened.

A quick-witted employee grasped her intention.

“Look at the broadcast title!”

“Broadcast title?!”

“Na-me is shooting a trailer right now, she had no intention of conducting a live stream at all!”

“Who doesn’t know that? Wait, ah…!”

While the streamer might be the host of the broadcast, the star of the trailer was the game itself.

How grand and beautiful the map was.

How stunning and intricate the graphics were.

How creative the boss battle’s presentation was.

Na-me was maximizing the game’s tension by removing her intimidation.

“While everyone else is just trying to dodge attacks, she’s carefully designing the camera angles?”

When the boss was about to strike, the camera zoomed in precisely.

If it had been set to automatic shooting, it would have zoomed out to capture a broader battlefield.

“Not just once but multiple times, it absolutely can’t be a coincidence.”

With about a third of his health left, Count Raikos showcased his ultimate move pattern.

“My father was foolish… Raikos is the sword that shines brightest at night…”

The knight of Silver Moon stabbed his siege sword into his own heart.

“Kaizen… be eternal.”

Moonlight burst from his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears.

In an age where everyone had to go insane just to survive.

Crackle crackle—

Multiple moonlight swords sprang from the back of Count Raikos like a porcupine.

The blue heat rays emitted from the swords scorched the entire map, causing the ground to give way and collapse.

In a moment of crisis.

[Casting: Glakis Scala]

Monica summoned a slide made of ice,

Shooooom—

Riding a makeshift slide, Na-me and Adella dashed over the edge, charging toward Count Raikos.

[This magic… it was you who crossed through the rift! Come forth!]

At the moment three swords crossed…!

[No Signal]

The broadcast signal cut off abruptly, and no one knew the outcome.

“Huh…”

The COO, who had been dazed for a moment, snapped back to reality and ordered the employees.

“Contact all the sleeping developers and tell them to come in! If there are any bugs that haven’t been fixed, tell them to hurry up and fix them!”

He sighed and clutched his throbbing head.

“At least I’m relieved Na-me intentionally avoided any spoilers.”

Perhaps she would continue this way until the game finished, broadcasting trailers while avoiding revealing the final boss.

The COO’s hands were already drenched in sweat from how tense it had been.

Thanks to Na-me’s showmanship, a perfectly unrepeatable in-game play video had been recorded.

She had concealed spoilers and hidden the solutions to the major patterns.

However, there was one thing they hadn’t considered—the fury of the live-streaming viewers.

There are two ways to anger people.

The first is to stop talking mid-sentence…

-Show us the full video!!!!!!!!!

-Agggh!

-You’re cutting off here again? Cutting off here again?

-Did you finish? Are you dead? Did you finish? Are you dead? So did you finish or are you dead?!

-Hurry up with the next episode, NoName!!!

-What the heck is this if not malicious!?

-No, why is it that you should be dead right now but you’re still alive?!

-Seriously, it’s not like I’m using invincibility cheats, lol.

-Please don’t mess with meㅠㅠㅠ I promise I’ll buy it when the game comes out. Na-me, I’m sorry…

-This DLC looks fun, everyone should try it ㄱㄱ

-Until it releases, I’m really pissed, lol.

-This looks ridiculously fun, it seems like the story is top-notch this time.

-If Na-me bought the game company to tea-bag gamers, that’s great.

-When, just when will the DLC be out? Why is your head like this?! 하루하루!!¡¡#^#*¤​

The second was revealing a DLC that can only be enjoyed alone, then cutting it off at the most crucial moment.

[I found the culprit who leaked the Wagal DLC!!!][533]

(NoName Wagal DLC Live Trailer #1 Simultaneous Stream.jpg)

How could a company’s CEO be the primary leaker, lol.

I was forming a party with Adella and Monica (the ones who reached the quarter-finals in the National Exchange Tournament this year) and suddenly broadcasting took place.

I thought it was some surprise event, so I checked the company’s website, but the announcement section was completely empty, what the heck.

NoName ← Really just wanted to show the game quickly, lol.

(Shutdown skill.gif)

In the meantime, to avoid spoilers, is it true she only showed the boss skills?

She didn’t reveal how she won, so all the live streamers are going nuts, lol.

(3-person party 3 vs 200 battle scene.gif)

P.S. They said Adella’s magic was implemented as a skill in Wagal this time (what’s the combination method?)

[Comments]

-Sigh… the person who leaked it is going to live a hard mode life.

└ But it’s NoName, isn’t it?!

└ Lolololol.

└ Read the text before you comment, lol.

└ Why not?

-Monica, what’s your deal, haha?!

└ Why is she even here? (I really don’t know)

└ They probably got close while fighting each other.

-Count Raikos is giving off a “cheap boss” smell, why is he so serious?

-The world itself seems to have a serious inflation problem.

└ You’d want at least 50,000 power before even thinking about clearing without deaths.

You can watch the process of producing the game trailer live.

Na-me’s broadcast potential was limitless, but this time, she exceeded the viewers’ imaginations.

Moreover, the knight of the Silver Moon, who they thought was just a weak boss, displayed a presence equivalent to a chapter boss.

In anticipation of seeing the boss to be revealed later, viewers stared at the black screen with bated breath.

Whooosh—

-Finally!

-It’s happeningwwwwwww

-Why is the story progression so slow?~

-Oh, they matched the equipment ㄷㄷ

-Monica smells way too newb, huff huff.
