Chapter 73
Chapter 73 Making Friends (1)
Dex revealed his true identity in the Battle of the Bamboo Spear.
Although he did not know, the mysterious users who were looking for him were not individuals, but a huge force.
“How did you find it?”
The one who was waiting for someone in a shabby space. When a group of mysterious stalkers entered to find Dex, he jumped up from his seat and asked urgently. However, at his question, the gang of stalkers shook their heads with sullen expressions.
“That information turned out to be false information. There was no one who looked like Dex-sama.”
“...Is there any possibility that he noticed something in the middle and ran away?”
“We've been guarding all the entrances to the restaurant, but Dex-sama didn't come between them.”
A group of people who thoroughly tried to find Dex. He hit the table in front of him as if he was indignant when he heard the report that he had carried out a large-scale operation to get important intelligence information, but had failed in the end.
Quaang.
“Damn... aren’t you guys approaching really strangely again? It was definitely information!”
It is very suspicious where he got the information from, but he insisted that it was certain, and while he was reprimanding the stalker gang, a person suddenly entered the room slowly.
“Don't be in too much of a hurry. If the guild leader shows that kind of image, even the other guild members become anxious.”
A female wizard user entering the room with an alluring smile. She gave advice to the excited man in a calm voice and spoke to a group of stalkers standing to one side as if punished.
“I will not judge now whether there were any problems with the operation. Submit a separate report on this operation. Confirm in writing and talk separately later.”
“....All right.”
A group of stalkers bow their heads with a gloomy expression at her words and go somewhere. After they all left, the man muttered as he glared at the door they had left with an expression of disapproval.
“joy. We can't accept such idiots as part of us.”
“It’s us right now that we feel sorry for such goofy people. It's a game that runs on economies of scale. You can't think of PC games that go back to being a small elite like before.”
Arcadia's guild system has no limit on the maximum number of players, unlike past games that ran through guilds created by dozens of users. So, unlike other games, the size and power of the guild itself was growing so enormously that it was different from the class.
“Damn.....”
“Adapt to the change. Did you forget what Dex said earlier? About the patch...”
“In the time to whine about the patch, start thinking about taking advantage of the changes made by the patch. I know, I know.”
Looking at the guild leader with a sullen expression as if he could understand with his head but not with his heart, one of his assistants and deputy guild leader said with a serious expression.
“Then, as a guild leader, I want you to be more self-aware. Even if I brought Dex-sama, would he really like it when he sees a guild like this?”
“.....”
A man with a sad face without saying anything at her heartfelt rebuke. Seeing him like that, she relaxed her expression and began to read a little.
“Don't be in too much of a hurry. Dex-sama made his appearance for the first time through this Jukchang Daejeon and confirmed that he is playing this game, so if you wait patiently, you will surely hear about us. Regarding the existence of the guild ‘Deck Fan Mu' by Dex-sama, for Dex-sama.”
A new guild, ‘What color are Dex's panties?'.
This guild, made up of people who follow Dex, has recently been rapidly expanding its size by assembling new guild members that are increasing day by day.
“...that’s how it should be. Rather than blindly searching for him, creating a confident guild that will never be ashamed of when he finds us. I need to focus on that first.”
Arthur, the guild leader who leads deck fan dance. He decided according to the advice of Agnes, the deputy guild leader.
“Anyone who plays Arcadia will not be able to know the name of our guild. If that happens... I will be able to give him a little bit of strength.”
At Arthur's words, Agnes responded with a wide smile.
“Exactly. Don't forget that as the guild grows, you can be of great help to him.”
Deck fan.
A lot of PC games Dex played in the past. The guild was created by gathering the users who received help in it, both large and small, and those who were greatly impressed by him. The birth of a force that would proudly take its place as one of the huge guilds that could never be ignored on the second continent of Arcadia was beginning like that.
And in the very distant future, Dex regretted running away from that group of stalkers in the past. If he had known of the existence of this guild at that time, he lamented that he would have been able to burn down this damn group training center for dyssexuals without a trace.

Jaeyoung runs away from the stalkers. He was walking the streets wearing the appearance of an unknown person.
“Hey there handsome young man. The fruit is fresh! Take a look!”
Neither the NPCs soliciting customers in the plaza nor the players they encountered here and there did not recognize Dex's identity. Only Angelina, who was walking beside him, was watching Jaeyoung with curious eyes.
“Hmm... that item is really amazing, isn’t it? To completely change her appearance...”
I met her wearing a mask of deception. Waiting at the place promised through the messenger, she did not believe Jaeyoung's words for a long time. Even the nickname seemed to be someone else's name to her, so despite a long explanation, Angelina eventually believed that he was Dex only after he pulled out a bamboo spear and showed it to her.
“Yeah... I didn't expect it to be this perfect either.”
Angelina has a lot of doubts about the origin. Perhaps it was because he was beaten in the back of the head by his master who had a fight with his fellow student and lived on the run for a long time. Jaeyoung mumbled with a tired face because he had spent so much energy trying to make her understand.
“Anyway, what do you want to tell me, so you asked to see me in such a hurry?”
Angelina goes to the main topic and asks why she asked to meet her. Jaeyoung asked her seriously.
“Ah, there is something I want to confirm about your future play.”
“My play?”
Angelina tilts her head at Jaeyoung's words. Looking at her like that, Jaeyoung thought to herself.
‘How should I talk about this.....'
Creating the third mission helper that flew to Jaeyoung.
After Angelina was registered as an assistant. The newly renewed mission required two more conditions from him.
- Casillas's assistant registration.
-Registration of helper of ???????? (currently located in Pagon Mine).
A mission that wants to register a total of three helpers, including Casillas, who fought a fierce battle with a mysterious person who is unknown. First of all, Jaeyoung met Angelina and talked about it.
“For now, what are you going to do with Stella who keeps chasing you and trying to kill you?”
Starlight Witch Stella.
Widely known as the second-ranked magician, she was aiming for Angelina behind the scenes in order to steal the magic book, a former item of the hidden class called the magician of moonlight.
“Um...well. I haven't decided anything in my heart yet, but I'm thinking of fighting because I don't think I'll be so vain even if I face it in the current situation.”
A set item of poverty given by Jaeyoung. Even though it is limited to 1-circle magic, she glimpsed the potential of the ability to pour out almost unlimited magic through this bamboo spear battle.
However, Jaeyoung shook his head at her thoughts.
“I don't really recommend that. Whatever it is, the opponent is the second-ranked mage. I haven't tried fighting properly, but the magic control and combat sense she showed definitely overwhelmed you. Actually, you didn't survive the second round of the Jukchang Daejeon after all, didn't you?”
An opponent whose victory cannot be measured just by firing circle 1 magic. Angelina, who felt that she was not actually using her power 100%, asked with a gloomy expression at Jaeyoung's words.
“...Then what are you telling me to do? Just surrender?”
At those words, Jaeyoung shook his head.
“Simple. Leave that item with me for a while.”
“what....?”
“After all, Stella is aiming for you in order to take over that magic book, right? If you don't have that item, there's no reason to target you.”
“.....”
Jaeyoung thought that it was more important for Angelina to improve her own physical abilities than the basic character's abilities. That's why he planned to maximize his fighting ability using magic by making the most of the item of poverty.
“And I have someone ready to improve your basic playing skills.”
“what....?”
Angelina asks Jaeyoung's meaningful words back with a strange look. But when Angelina saw a man appearing in front of her, she exclaimed in horror.
“You are you...?”
“...Is this woman the one I should be teaching?”
Casillas.
A presence that revealed a splendid presence through this Jukchang Daejeon.
Jae-young personally recruited him and brought him in. He was looking down at Angelina with indifferent eyes.
“huh. His abilities aren't bad, but his basic control and combat sense are a bit lacking. I want you to take me along and teach me yourself.”
Casillas, who was recognized by everyone for his control and ability in the past Icarus. Jaeyoung was sure that if he did, he would bring out Angelina's potential to the fullest and transform her from a raw stone into a brilliantly shining jewel.
“...Does that make me talk to Master again?”
All Weapon Master Calypso. I don't know exactly what happened in the brief battle, but Casillas, who had a strangely sad expression while clutching the old sword, called him master and wanted to talk to him again.
“Don't worry about that part. It's difficult right now, but one day it's possible.”
Calypso did something that exceeded his own probabilities. I don't know exactly why, but he was excluded from the list of possible reincarnations, and according to El, he entered a short break. I don't know when, but it's impossible to meet Casillas right now. Seeing that fact, Casillas muttered with a bitter expression.
“I see...”
His expression tinged with guilt. It looked like he was blaming himself for selling the necklace, which was a keepsake of his master who was one body with the sword, along with the japtem.
“No matter what, find that necklace first. Since you can't undo the mistakes that have already been spilled, shouldn't you at least try to rectify as much as you can? Only then will there be a face to face the Master.”
“I thought it was because there was a guy who kept nagging me.”
Meanwhile, Casillas grabs the old sword with all his might. Looking at him like that, Jaeyoung nodded his head with a strange smile.
“You're there too, the guy next to you who keeps talking noisily?”
Tan and L, who are distracted by fighting behind their backs for some reason. Glancing at the two, Jaeyoung muttered to Casillas as if he understood.
“...What does that mean?”
“No nothing. Anyway... I hope you'll take care of me.”
“....of course. It will grow strong enough not to die no matter where you put it.”
So Jae-young entrusted Angelina to Casillas' hands. Not even dreaming of how she would change at the hands of Casillas.
Stupid in PVP.
Angelina, a rare crazy bitch who beats until she loses if she doesn't.
Her birth began like this.
