1st Place In The Ranking Is A Villager

1st place in the ranking is the villager

- Volume 7 Episode 8

8. Solicitation (1)

After 2 months and 10 days after Hoya was discharged from the military, the reporters who were watching closely while refreshing Initium's ranking table poured out the articles they had written in advance at the same time.

The titles and contents of the articles were slightly different, but in the end they said one thing the same.

[Two years of void that seems impossible to fill, two months of non-stop running that turned the impossible into possible]

Player Hoya, who suddenly disappeared about two years ago, was not enough to fill the gap of two years after two months of his return.

[The new sky that has finally changed, Hoya, the third owner of Initium’s sky]

Since the opening of Game Initium, the position of No. 1 in the ranking has changed only twice.

The first was that Doban jumped over the wall of the book, which had been firmly held, and the second was that the bookmaker regained the No.

And today, the third master of heaven was finally born.

The third person who made it to the top of the ranking was Hoya, a villager who had completely lost track for the past two years.

Rumors abounded that he had quit the game, died, got involved in an accident, etc., but he reappeared two months ago and was completely successful in returning to the game.

[Initium's new No. 1 Hoya, his current expected status, which predicted his level-up speed and monster level as a hint]

The most recent hunting scene seen by Hoya, who is currently ranked No. 1, is that he catches a level 370 monster in the wasteland that was officially shown through streaming.

The monster's name was covered with a question mark and the appearance was not seen, so it was impossible to specify what it was, but the monster's strength could be predicted based on the monster's attributes guessed due to its appearance and the darkness of level 360-363.

Hoya's status predicted by the reporter based on that prediction...

It was about Hoya, who quickly took the number one spot despite his two-year hiatus.

When Hoya started raising the level, he raised the level from 1 to 3 per day, and after a month had passed, he steadily increased the level by 1 per day.

The additional damage to monsters in the demon realm due to the guidebook made with Chibin's power and divine power, Badu who became stronger than Hoya while he was in the army, Miho, who was originally strong, and Sammy, who helped a lot by acquiring aggro skills. Without it, it would have been absolutely impossible.

At the same time, it was a journey that Hoya never wanted to do again.

And Lee Dae-hyun, who encountered such articles through a smartphone in a moving car, seemed very uncomfortable.

"Ttt, if it's folded, it'll be completely folded. Why did you come back? Like X, really."

Originally, around this time, domestic reporters, ignorant of foreign countries, had mass-produced articles by tying themselves with the hero Daejeon.

It was the same in the 1st Hero War, and it was the same in the 2nd Hero War.

However, this year, when the 3rd Heroes War was held, the interest shifted to Hoya.

[Hoya, who has made a splendid comeback, are you participating in the Hero Wars this time?]

[His move that Initium players around the world pay attention to]

[Initium 3rd Hero Battle Preliminary Preliminary Started! Hoya, are you going to put your name on the participant list?]I didn't like that fact.

"Even if you hand over the ranking, you can't hand over this."

The title of Korea's representative, Korea's best player, and the world's best player to come soon cannot be handed over.

"I'll make you burial socially."

But it was also true that he was a threat to himself.

Therefore, Dae-hyun Lee planned to bury Hoya by spreading rumors about Hoya.

It's not uncommon for him to publish the articles he wants if he gives the media back money.

Even if the bad news doesn't come out behind the scenes, if you write a plausible scenario and publish it as an article, the pigs and pigs will believe it and spread it.

But in order to do that, he must first pass the online qualifier and appear in the offline qualifier.

“It would be nice if we were eliminated from the online qualifiers, but it won’t happen, and I hope you don’t participate at all.”

It was the simplest and best situation for Lee Dae-hyun that Hoya did not participate in the Hero Battle this time, but somehow it seemed unlikely that it would happen.

"Hello, viewers! Greetings from streamer Bilibi! Hello!"

Ranker Bilibi, who occupies the 2,826th place in the rankings, waved his hand toward the air in the waiting room of the matchmaking center.

Currently, he is streaming and has a fairly large number of viewers.

"Come on, today, as previously announced, I will show you a broadcast that achieves mastery without defeat. For this day, I did a Rangta even before the Hero Battle! I have the confidence to go up again!"

Viribi was originally a player who had maintained the hero rank since the old days.

However, due to the rapid decrease in streaming content, he made a match without wearing any equipment to create content, and then deliberately lost and lowered his rank to Bronze.

Today's broadcast is to raise his rank from Bronze to Master without defeat.

His skill, which has high defense and has a long cooldown, instead of specializing in the strong side, was showing great light in the dungeon where the cooldown of the skill is reset every time it is matched.

-Yeah, you're telling me that you came down to massacre Yangmin?

-Wow... How is your conscience?

- Those who are dissatisfied, just leave. Don't make the water cloudy.

-LOL. Brother, what are you going to do if you can't shoot undefeated? I can't wait to see what to walk.

- Board the horse above.

"Are you going to make a bet on me now? It's good. If I can't take the Master undefeated, I'll take a video of me dressing up as a woman and reading poetry in real life. Instead, if I shoot the Master undefeated, what will you tell me? Will you please?"

- Of course, the only thing we can do for you is gold.

- This guy has a lot of bullets.

- You're asking the viewers! Whoa! Then I have no choice but to give you gold!

"Isn't it fussing later?"

After receiving a verbal promise from the viewers, Bilibi started matching Dalian with excitement.

Not everyone will follow that word, but more gold will come in than usual.

I had to put the Master undefeated, but due to the preparations for the Hero Battle, almost all of the talented people were concentrated in the top ranks of the Masters and Heroes, so I never thought that I would lose.

I also had confidence.

And as proof that his confidence wasn't deceitful, he won the first match very neatly and quickly.

"How about my neat skills!"

-Did you see the face of the other person who was matched? I thought I was going to cry a lot.

- The country will do the same.

- Viribi-nim, don't be proud of winning the bronze. I have a long way to go.

"Yes, yes. Then we will start matching again right away!"

However, in the second match, something unexpected happened.

- Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Why is that person here?

- Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

-Bribi-nim, I know that the clothing store is good. Can I send you a dress in advance? I'll pick a good one.

- This older sister makes one makeup look amazing. If you need help, just send me a note hahahahahaha.

-I'm looking forward to dressing up as a woman, bro.

The opponent caught in Biribi's second match was the problem.

The player receiving the most attention right now was Hoya.

"Hello, I wish you well."

“Ho, ho ho ho…, hoya-sama…? Why are you here…?”

"Yeah... it's because we did matchmaking?"

Hoya was in the process of taking a placement test to get a diamond rank first in order to get a hero rank.

And he was caught bribery against him.

It was truly embarrassing for him.

Regardless of Biribi's heart, the countdown to announce the start of the match in the air in the center of the center of the center of the match did not stop and continued to decrease.

5, 4, 3.......

'Oh! Why did I make such a bet?'

Biribi internally resented her past self.

On the one hand, he also had hopes that he might have.

2, 1, Fight!

"Balkan Burst!"

When the countdown was over and the match started, Biribi immediately rushed to Hoya using her skill.

His twin swords were surrounded by crimson flames, and he immediately attacked Hoya with his twin swords.

Quang-!

The fireworks exploded and caused a great shock, but it was an explosion that Hoya could not reach.

When Bilibi swung her dual swords, Hoya had already moved behind him using her swiftness.

And in the process, due to the sword Hoya swung quickly, there was a lot of damage to Bilibi.

'crazy! How much HP has been cut!'

After checking his own HP, Viri Bi screamed inwardly.

And he had to scream inwardly once more at Hoya's attack that followed.

Hoya's speed had not yet stopped.

[You Win!]

Hoya, who lightly beat Biribi, moved to the waiting room and immediately pressed the matching button again.

If he wins all 10 of the 10 placement tests, the process that determines the first grade, he can be awarded a diamond grade.

And it didn't take long for Hoya to finish his placement test and get a diamond grade.

Hoya, who achieved the master level, hunted monsters the next day and gained enough experience to not lower the ranking, and then continued the matchmaking match again, aiming for the position of the hero.

However, as he got closer to the hero, it took a long time for the matching to be completed.

“Okay…, it’s only once or twice in the future…”

On the third day after Hoya started using the dagger, Hoya was lamenting at the match that could not be caught even after 30 minutes had passed.

And after another 10 minutes, a match was finally caught.

As Hoya accepted his match without hesitation, the surrounding landscape changed, and the opponent entered the center of the field of view.

He was matched with Hoya, and he knew Hoya well.

"Ah, fortunately, Hoya-nim and I have been matched. Is this the first time the two of you are talking like this?"

"Yes?"

"To tell you in advance, I didn't do matching to fight. I want to talk with Hoya-sama. To be honest, I have something I want to recommend."

"Anything you want to recommend?"

As Hoya tilted his head at his own words, Kapigil spoke his words.

"I'm just asking for confirmation, but being here right now means that you're willing to participate in the Hero Battle?"

"Yes."

"Are you participating in a solo exhibition?"

"Yes."

Copygil smiled brightly at Hoya's answer.

"Then why don't you join our team and go out to a team event?"
