Leore

Two World Events had passed since Arang-i stopped entering Leore.

As the main quest changed into individual quests, the rewards and items also became more diverse. Because of that, succeeding in events or quests became quite important.

Before Leore became a single world, if a quest failed, you could just receive it again like in other games, but now it’s different. If a quest fails, that quest ends in failure and disappears.

Because of that, the importance of quests and events has increased significantly.

The number of users in the Fifth World faction is quite small.

The reason is that after being affiliated with another faction and leaving that faction, you have to wait for a while as a penalty before you can enter another faction.

Many users don’t want to miss out on various rewards due to the penalty of not being able to enter another faction.

The only users who endure the penalty and enter the Fifth World faction are those who like Arang, Dis Nyeo-nim, or the Black Saintess.

The problem is that Arang hasn’t been entering Leore, and with two World Events held, the already small number of Fifth World faction users has decreased even further.

The reason is that it has become quite difficult to receive normal rewards.

It’s not that they don’t give rewards. But it’s true that the rewards are less than on the opposite side.

People who play RPGs, especially users who participate in war events, really hate receiving fewer rewards than other users, so many users started abandoning the Fifth World faction and moving to the Allied faction.

And what created that opportunity was none other than the Leore Gallery.

[War Event Rewards]

(Victory Reward)

(Defeat Reward)

You all know that the rewards have changed with this patch.

You’ll know that the difference in rewards is bigger than you think. The problem is, you also know that the Fifth World side keeps losing since Arang-i disappeared.

Unless Arang-i enters Leore, the Fifth World has almost a 0% chance of winning. Moreover, it’s getting harder because the number of users keeps decreasing.

Leore will probably take some measures regarding this, but I still think it will be difficult.

So, I made a table for the users who are currently in the Fifth World.

Everyone knows that the rewards aren’t just experience rewards or anything like that, but there’s gold, important doping potions, food ingredients, and a lot of other things, so the gold value is quite high.

(Table of how long it takes to profit after changing factions)

As you can see, you profit after just one month of switching.

(Reward difference per week for victory and defeat)

Moreover, after a month, the reward difference is almost double.

If you want to normalize rewards every week, let’s move to the Allied faction right now.

-Are we abandoning our Princess-nim? Abandoning? Abandoning? Abandoning?

ㄴArang-i abandoned us first

ㄴLOL she went to space war

ㄴShe’s having a happy space war among pretty unnies, fuck

-This balance is too weird. The Allied faction is too strong

ㄴSurprisingly, the Allied faction lost in the first event

ㄴArang-i was there in the first event, lol

ㄴEven if Arang-i is here now, the Allied faction would just win, right?

ㄴLOL everyone is used to the event now

-Ah, should I switch now?

ㄴGo go, it’s profitable to switch as soon as possible

[Let’s ditch the Fifth World quickly, everyone]

(Arang being hugged by Vita)

(Arang smiling happily among space war female streamers)

Arang-i is not coming back to Leore, peace out

It’s been a month since the event opened, and the reward difference has been almost double during that time, lol

Without Arang-i, the Fifth World is just losing money every minute, lol

Every quest is difficult, and if you succeed in those quests, your rank goes up, and then the hostility towards the town NPCs increases, lol

Just JOAT itself

It’s right to run away quickly

[Comments]

-But the Fifth World has no advantages at all. Why does it even need to exist?

ㄴLOL it’s just full of inconveniences

ㄴYou can meet Arang-i

ㄴArang-i isn’t here anymore

ㄴThat’s right

[Good things about being in the Fifth World faction]

[Comments]

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-It’s completely empty

-Are you ignoring Dis Nyeo-nim?

ㄴWhat does Dis Nyeo-nim even do? What is there to do?

ㄴLOL the Allied managers at least come and help if you hold out, but Dis Nyeo-nim just watches

-Is Arang-i not coming back?

The day of the 4th World Event.

The [Munchkin Cat] guild was in trouble. No matter how skilled you are, Leore cannot win against a zerg rush except in very special cases.

That special case is Arang, but since Guild Leader Arang, who hasn’t been entering Leore recently, isn’t here, the chance of winning has decreased significantly.

No matter how much Opilbo has the same performance as Arang, an ordinary person cannot draw out 100% of that performance.

So, it’s not that he’s not helpful, and he is somewhat helpful, but he’s not a means to win the war.

Originally, the Fifth World faction was supposed to push strongly, and the Allied faction was supposed to hold out, but the Allied faction, having experienced the event once or twice, quickly adapted to the event and instead pressured the Fifth World faction.

“Damn it! Seriously, isn’t this too much!? Go easy on me! Go easy!”

Opilbo shouted at the Allied raid groups who were frantically pushing to kill him.

He wouldn’t have lasted even a second if he didn’t have the field boss’s stats, but he was forcibly enduring and attacking because he had the field boss’s HP, but he didn’t feel confident in winning at all.

“Huk…! Huk…! Aww!”

The moment he was about to get hit by an attack coming from the front while panting due to lack of stamina, Marang-i kicked him hard in the foot.

Opilbo barely dodged the attack.

“Hey, can’t you do it right?”

“I’m working hard too…!”

Marang-i sighed at Opilbo’s skills, which only made her sigh.

Actually, it’s not that Opilbo’s skills are bad. If you look at the overall average, he is also a very skilled person.

But Marang-i’s standards are set to Arang, so in Marang-i’s eyes, he was only at the level of an elementary school student.

No matter how similar his skills were to Arang, the Allied raid groups, who had known Arang for a long time and perfectly grasped all of Arang’s styles when Arang was a field boss, were quite overwhelming.

The moment Marang-i and Opilbo thought they would lose just like the last event, a notification popped up in front of Opilbo’s eyes.

Opilbo’s desperate expression turned into a smile in an instant upon seeing the notification.

There were several precautions, but Opilbo pressed the accept button without any hesitation.

As soon as he pressed it, Opilbo turned into black liquid and disappeared.

“!?”

“What?”

“Huh? He suddenly died?”

“Is a new event coming out again?”

When targets with a certain rank in the Fifth World die, they don’t die with particles, but they die turning into black liquid.

In other words, Opilbo died.

The Allied raid members who were holding Marang-i and Opilbo were bewildered by Opilbo’s sudden death, but Marang-i, who was somewhat connected to the Leore system, immediately realized why Opilbo had disappeared.

The black liquid remaining in the spot where Opilbo died began to bubble and then began to multiply.

The black liquid devoured the space itself in an instant and created a huge gate.

When the gate opened, a young girl appeared inside.

“Our faction has become a mess while I was gone?”

“Arangaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Reina, who was just watching the event because she suddenly appeared and didn’t have much motivation without Arang-i, was startled and ran towards Arang-i from afar.

Since our Nine University’s mini university battle is in two days anyway, I entered Leore today.

I was going to do the weekly quest after logging in after a long time, but I ended up entering on the day of the World Event.

All of our guild members were also in the middle of the World Event, so I entered Yesol unnie’s broadcast.

[Eugh!? Sa, save me!]

As soon as I entered the broadcast, it was full of Yesol unnie’s screams.

The World Event that I clearly did was an event where our side swept the other side and the other side held out, but the situation was flowing in the opposite direction.

No, why the hell did this happen? It’s not user VS user, but we even have monster support on our side, and we’re losing.

It’s frustrating. It’s frustrating.

What are Bae Doe-pgae and Soonchu unnie doing? They just stood there while this happened?

Can I enter now? Opilbo ajusshi is doing my role, so it’s impossible, right?

As I was thinking that, a system window popped up.

There were a lot of words written, but to put it simply, it means I can participate in the event. However, it’s in the form of switching with Opilbo ajusshi right now, and I have to inherit Opilbo ajusshi’s condition as it is, such as HP, mana, stamina, etc., and I also have to get permission.

It’s rude to Opilbo ajusshi to participate in the event in the middle, but just in case, I pressed the confirm button.

Ttiriring.

[Accepted.]

Opilbo ajusshi pressed the accept button in less than a minute.

[Moving to the event area.]

As soon as I arrived at the event area, Marang-i greeted me, and then Reina greeted me.

Is it because I’m meeting Reina after a really long time? She ran towards me with an expression as if she was meeting a reunited family member.

I lightly stabbed Reina in the neck with a dagger.
