[Guild]SignalOnAndGoStraight: Why are you trying to stay rational against that bastard♡

[Guild]SignalOnAndGoStraight: Let’s just do a nationwide public apology

[Guild]ScamMage: Are you gonna record that interview, Straight..?Full novel: Good Life Rankers — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

[Guild]SignalOnAndGoStraight: yeah yeah

[Guild]SignalOnAndGoStraight: I’ll split the video revenue fifty-fifty

[Guild]kk1234: fuck

These slaves to capitalism….

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: hey

I was just about ready to log out when the guild master logged in. A second ago his last login had shown as two days ago, but… guess he’s busy these days.

[Guild]ScamMage: The king is here

[Guild]Rete: Boss, you here?

ScamMage and Rete bowed down in chat.

The guild master’s IGN was Captain… Daehan… CapDae… No matter how you tried to call him, it either sounded drunk on national pride or just plain bad, so we compromised. We went with simple stuff like guild master, captain, boss, and so on. Of course, there were plenty of people who played along with his “concept,” too.

[Guild]Rete: Salute the flag!

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: Cut the crap

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: K

The guild master spoke normally. If you only looked at his IGN and appearance, CaptainDaehan seemed like a completely insane concept-addict, but he was actually the voice of reason in the guild.

The fact that a guy like that was calling for me at a time like this made me uneasy.

[Guild]kk1234: Guild master

[Guild]kk1234: This time I’m not the one in the wrong

[Guild]kk1234: I’m the victim here

[Guild]Rete: No one said anything but he already feels guilty, that’s a whole class;

[Guild]SignalOnAndGoStraight: There’s a level of trash personality beyond all others!?

[Guild]kk1234: shut the fuck up

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: K

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: Like you said, this time you did take the hit

[Guild]kk1234: Exactly

[Guild]kk1234: I’m the victim here

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: ?

[Guild]kk1234: ?

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: If you have a conscience, you don’t put your name and the word “victim” side by side

Rete: lololololololololololololololololol

Fuck……. This is so unfair. I really didn’t do anything that bad this time. If I had one wish right now, it’d be for 『rainfall』 to chase other people around too.

[Guild]kk1234: No seriously, I’m the victim here

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: I’m not planning to blame you for anything

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: But up to now, all the fights you’ve picked

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: Whenever complaints came in to the guild, I didn’t respond

[Guild]kk1234: Right

Some people seemed to think a guild was like a school, so every now and then they’d tattletale to the guild master like they were going to a teacher about a delinquent kid. “Can you control your brats a little?”

Of course, even when complaints came in, our guild didn’t really get involved. It was personal business, so the other side was free to retaliate however they wanted. But if they started touching other guild members on a guild-wide level, then we’d respond as a guild too.

But this time I was the one getting beaten up, so it’s not like the other side would’ve filed a complaint, right?

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: The other side, Sunset Guild, brought it up first

[Guild]kk1234: What are you talking about??

[Guild]ScamMage: No way K… did you file a complaint to their guild..?

[Guild]Rete: For real?

[Guild]Rete: Our guild’s shame

[Guild]kk1234: fuck no I didn’t

That was an insane misunderstanding.

As the idle chatter kept piling up, the guild master slammed the shield he was holding into the ground. As expected of the king of concept-addicts—he couldn’t completely abandon the bit.

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: Listen till the end

[Guild]kk1234: yessir…

[Guild]ScamMage: Yes, boss!

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: Sunset Guild says if we want, they’ll expel 『rainfall』

[Guild]kk1234: There’s no need for that

[Guild]Rete: You beat the shit out of Sunset and you’re saying that, fuck lol

I mean, yeah, I hit them whenever I saw them. But it’s not like I followed them around to hit them.

『rainfall』, what kind of guild life have you been living? You’re getting threatened with expulsion right away……

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: Anyway, K

[Guild]kk1234: Yeah

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: Stop trying to rope other guild members into going after 『rainfall』 with you

Ah, I said don’t bring that up……. Did you have to snitch on all of it? Busted. Rete, who’d been quietly watching, started circling my avatar.

[Guild]Rete: You did?

[Guild]Rete: Why didn’t you ask me?

[Guild]Rete: Need backup? lol

[Guild]Rete: Beg and I’ll help

[Guild]kk1234: I’ve got no business with guys whose weapons are broken

[Guild]Rete: bastard♡

[Guild]Rete: But I kinda wanna pick a fight with Sunset, can’t we poke them a bit first lol

<‘CaptainDaehan’ has demoted ‘Rete’ to ‘Regular Guild Member’.>

[Guild]Rete: sry

[Guild]Rete: I’m sorry, boss

[Guild]Rete: I won’t fight

<‘CaptainDaehan’ has promoted ‘Rete’ to ‘Elite Guild Member’.>

[Guild]Rete: I SAID I’M SOOOORRYYYYY!

[Guild]Rete: Ah

<‘CaptainDaehan’ has demoted ‘Rete’ to ‘Regular Guild Member’.>

[Guild]Rete: I’ll behave

[Guild]Rete: Seriously

[Guild]CaptainDaehan: Just keep living like that

[Guild]Rete: Please T_T

They were having the time of their lives.

[Guild]SignalOnAndGoStraight: I heard a rumor you’re the Holy Guild master’s lover

[Guild]Rete: Holy as in Guardian??

[Guild]Rete: That pervert bastard?

Holy Guild was the kind of guild that always placed in the top three whenever there was a guild event. They were a rival, just like us, also ranked near the top, so our relationship had never been particularly friendly.

Rete especially had personal bad blood with Guardian, Holy’s guild master, so he ground his teeth whenever the guy came up.

[Guild]Rete: Ah, but that’s gotta be bullshit

[Guild]Rete: There’s no way Holy’s guild master has a lover

[Guild]SignalOnAndGoStraight: You’re his lover

[Guild]Rete: fuck off;

The topic smoothly shifted over to teasing Rete, and I rode that flow and started chatting away happily.

****

[kk1234 getting justice served lololol]

Comments

– Everyone chant Godfall

– Please nerf this rotten Archmage trash

└ It’s Godfall who’s strong, Archmage is weak

└└ Where the hell is your conscience

└└└ In PVP it’s weak

– I still haven’t forgotten asking K for directions as a newbie and getting killed

└ How dare you put your hands on the keyboard while kk1234 is passing by? You should’ve kept your mouth shut

– OP seems to be in love with K

└ ?

└└ They typed out his whole IGN

└└└ For real, that’s love

└└└ lol change your nickname

[Who the hell is Godfall?]

It’s nice seeing K get beat up but… how the hell does he get farmed like that? Is it a hack?

Comments

– I actually sent a ticket, they said he’s a normal user

└ You really filed another ticket for this

– I saw him before, he was really quiet… helped me a lot when I was a newbie, never thought he’d show up on the callout board

└ Pretty sure he’s just some psycho bastard

└└ Lord, please let me become a righteous psycho

– First to clear Light God

└ ??

[How do you read kk?]

I say “kekke”

Comments

– kekke

– keke

– When you say Aurora, you say K

– keke

– kaykayonetwothreefour

└ real fan

– Mister K

└ pervert

└ gross

– But why is it “keke”?

└ Straight called him Keke

– fuck

└ Why you swearing

└└ I said Keke fuck

└└└ Why are you swearing at me T_T

[Wish Straight would get a recent emotional interview from Keke]

That’d be great

You reading this, Straight?

Comments

– I’m ready to subscribe to Straight

└ I already subscribed, lol

[What’s with the guys licking Keke?]

I see them every now and then

Comments

– Because he’s good at it

└ Pervert

[I thought 『rainfall』 sounded familiar;]

Turns out he was the one who first found Light God and got the first clear

Comments

– This bait is old

– I bet 『rainfall』 was helping newbies and got cut downㅇㅇ Keke breaks out in hives if he sees anyone helping newbies

└ This. This right here

[『rainfall』,,,, I’m dying to know who he is,,,,]

At first I thought he was just a clout-chaser trying to get tied to Keke, but he quietly only beats up Keke

Comments

– If Godfall is human, shake your carrot

[『rainfall』 is great and all but]

His face isn’t

Looking at him pisses me off

Comments

– Put in effort to look that ugly;

– It’s hard to make a face that shitty in Aurora

└ His outfit’s fucking weird too...

└└ That look’s actually kind of rare

└└└ Shit is still shit no matter how rare it is

[『rainfall』’s looks]

(screenshot: 『rainfall』 wearing a black-bean noodle bowl hat.png)

(screenshot: 『rainfall』 in a full-body frog suit.png)

(screenshot: 『rainfall』 with green skin equipped.png)

Comments

– This guy isn’t normal either

└ He wouldn’t be picking fights with Keke if he was

└└ Wise words;

– The green skin is sexy

└ you freak

[So what’s Keke doing these days?]

Still slicing people up?

Comments

– nah, every time he tries to, 『rainfall』 shows up so he can’t. These days when people see Keke, they ping his location to 『rainfall』. Then he comes running.

└ Was 『rainfall』 a cop

└└ Aurora’s volunteer police force Godfall

[Keke’s mechanics are still sick as hell though]

His win rate’s going up, looks like he’ll beat 『rainfall』 soon

Comments

– That I agree with, Keke’s mechanics are better

└ 『rainfall』 looks like he’s been studying only K

└ You get half the research done just by subscribing to Straight

– I vote that K did something to make 『rainfall』 hold a grudge

└ Who doesn’t know that?

└ 『rainfall』 is an AI built from all the grudges of people K stomped

– The problem is he keeps coming no matter if he loses or wins

└ I respect the persistence

└ 『rainfall』 is a growth-type, his mechanics keep getting better by fighting K

└└ That’s creepy

[What I’ve learned about 『rainfall』 from the general board]

ok?

Comments

– Don’t talk shit about Godfall

└ ((((((((Godfall))))))))
