Ranker's Return Chapter 796

-What? Is it a human?

-Isn’t it the undead that appeared in the north? Isn’t that obviously a knight?

-Is it a player or an NPC?

-Of course, it is an NPC. Is the hole in the face an eye?

The viewers quickly sent messages when they saw the appearance of the man in gray armor. He had a helmet on his face, so his face couldn’t be seen. Therefore, they were just saying whatever they thought.

“Let’s take off the helmet first,” Kalen told the viewers. At the same time, the words were directed toward the Venom Guild members. This was because the man in gray armor would only be identified as Edward when he took off his helmet.

“Do what we always do,” Rose said and placed a buff on Crimson to boost his defense and physique. The Venom Guild didn’t have professional tankers. Instead, the role was played by Crimson, a melee fighter.

“You are like moths. Death awaits those who don’t know who they are up against!” Edward, dressed in gray armor, shouted as he pulled out the sword hanging from his waist and swung it.

Gray pure energy lashed out with bends like a whip. Crimson threw his fist at the gray pure energy that curved like a snake. Small beads of pure energy poured out of Crimson’s fist to ward off the gray pure energy.

“I won’t be as stupid this time, you jerk,” Crimson chuckled.

Last time, he was hit by an unexpected attack and collapsed without being able to do anything. This time, it was different. He was vigilant. Crimson maintained his tension and did his best. While Crimson blocked Edward’s attack, the other members of the Venom Guild were ready to attack.

The priest, Rose, prayed with both hands placed together, and a white thunderbolt fell from the sky. The white thunderbolt engulfed Edward. At this moment, Karen’s spear-shaped pure energy flew toward Edward, who was dyed white. After that, the magic of the magicians exploded. It was a neat combination.

-Wow, the cooperation is good.

-A party like this is just as good as any other large guild.

-One blow has been dealt, right?

-However, he is the boss. Can he be beaten so easily?

The viewers marveled at the incredible cooperation of the Venom Guild. The collaboration from their many experiences was very organic.

“Is this also called an attack? It is light, and it doesn’t itch.”

However, Edward, who appeared after the bombardment of the Venom Guild, was fine. The armor was still smooth, and there were no torn areas where Edward’s face could be seen.

“Too weak… You are too weak compared to him!”

As Edward continued to shout, a gray energy rushed from his body like a mist.

“Go! Go and tell him this… I’ll find him soon!!”

Edward moved his arm like he would swing the sword at any moment. However, it stopped abruptly and just pointed into the air. It was as if Edward got caught by something.

-Who are they supposed to tell?

-No, is he the cause of the change in the north? He doesn’t look like an undead?

-Anyone can see he is a knight.

-Isn’t it just a boss monster? I think an explanation is needed.

The viewers saw Edward’s words and deeds and sowed some doubts. These chat messages were also seen by the six members of the Venom Guild. Kalen bit his lip when he saw the messages. At this point, an unconditional result had to come out.

‘I have to reveal his face.’

The viewers didn’t have a lot of patience. Aside from the Venom Guild’s live stream, there were too many alternatives they could watch. This meant it was easy for the viewers to abandon a live stream if they got bored. It was unlike a certain someone who was irreplaceable.

‘If not now… No.’

Just then, Kalen moved. He sprang forward like lightning and extended his sword. Kalen’s sword moved toward Edward’s head.

“Still… You still don’t know who you are up against.”

Edward moved the sword he was pointing at the sky and slashed downward. Following the trajectory of Edward’s sword, the world started to turn gray.

‘Avoid it once.’ Kalen saw the gray light falling toward his head and slammed hard against the ground with his left foot. Kalen’s body tilted sharply and bounced to the left. Edward’s sword hit the ground where Kalen had disappeared. Traces of lightning were left on the ground.

‘Success!’ Kalen heard the sound of an explosion coming from the side and was confident that his attack would succeed. This conviction soon had a decent result.

Kalen’s sword hit Edward’s helmet. It failed to cut it, but he succeeded in removing Edward’s helmet. The helmet was fine even after being hit by pure energy. However, it left the place it was supposed to be and rolled over on the icy ground.

-He is handsome.

-He looks like a knight.

-He looks good with a blade.

-He is an NPC just by looking. It isn’t a player.

The viewers didn’t recognize Edward. In fact, it would be stranger if they did. Edward’s time on the live streams totaled less than three hours. In addition, too much time had passed. Nevertheless, the Venom Guild wouldn’t just sit still and watch such a chat window. The people who were watching the situation from the back exchanged words like they were chatting.

“Isn’t this a familiar face?”

“Where did I see it before?”

“He isn’t a player. None of the rankers I know have that face.”

“What about among the NPCs?”

“I don’t really remember… but it is definitely a face I have seen before…”

Of course, they didn’t say it from the beginning. Otherwise, it would be too obvious.

-A familiar face?

-It isn’t common to see a face like that. In addition, NPCs who are that strong.

-We won’t know if it is an NPC whom only the Venom Guild has met.

-By the way, it is also familiar to me? I think I’ve seen him somewhere before.

Almost all the viewers didn’t recognize Edward’s face. Most people didn’t know it at all. However, some people remembered Edward’s face.

“I remember. I saw it in the main scenario.”

“The main scenario? This one? A demon?”

“No, it was the past. Was it the third or fourth? No, the fifth? In any case, the last boss monster looked like this.”

“I also remember. I think he was some type of prince… Was his name ‘Edward’?”

The members of the Venom Guild showed amazing acting like they only just remembered it.

-Edward? Who is Edward?

-The boss monster of the fifth main scenario is Edward. I remember. The Mano Guild was robbed by Edward, and Alley Leader killed him one-on-one.

-To be precise, Alley Leader was holding on tight until Lebron showed up and killed him in one blow.

-So how did a dead person come back to life? Was it a clone that died back then? Is this the main body? Seeing how strong this one is, it might be right.

Once the name ‘Edward’ came out, information about Edward started to appear in the chat window one by one.

‘It’s done, it’s done.’ Kalen now felt relieved.

Edward’s face was finally revealed, and information was released. Now it didn’t matter how things worked out. It was proven that what the Venom Guild found was relevant to the main scenario. In the future, no matter who the main scenario was played by, the name of the Venom Guild was bound to come out unconditionally. Even if this wasn’t the case, the name of the Venom Guild would be plastered all over the communities a few minutes from now. It was certain that their number of viewers would increase and their A-World channel would increase in subscribers and views.

‘It is a success, a success.’

The tension in Kalen’s body was momentarily released. Then without missing this gap, Edward’s gray pure energy swept through Kalen’s body. This was the end of Kalen. Edward forced him to log out.

“If you can escape then run away! Those who can live must live,” Crimson shouted while standing in front of the members of the Venom Guild.

He usually acted casually, but he was a professional. Crimson was clearly aware of his role. Meanwhile, the other members of the Venom Guild turned around and started to run quickly. Crimson saw this and rushed toward Edward.

-Sacrificing yourself for the team is good. I’m going to subscribe from today.

-Galax has gifted you 99 gold coins.

-I’m going to give coins. It is right to give them when you see something like this.

-Li Jun has gifted you 77 gold coins.

The viewers who saw Crimson’s sacrifice were impressed by the scene. However, they missed something because they were focused on Crimson’s sacrifice. It was the shadows seen behind Edward.

“It is boring, boring.”

Hyeonu walked endlessly on the road. There was no map of the divine world, so he couldn’t tell how far he had come and where he was now. It was too difficult to continue the journey with just an abstract name.

‘It is worse because of this baggage.’

Hyeonu glanced at the descendants of the Luos Empire who were following him. They weren’t the problem. The problem was that they had too much passion compared to their ability.

‘The slow movement speed is also a problem…’

If he was just moving with Tang-E, the two of them would’ve already arrived in the north. It was because Hyeonu could move a few dozen times faster than he was now if he ran with Tang-E alone.

“Tang-E, how have you been learning these days?” Hyeonu spoke to Tang-E to get rid of his boredom.

“Just so-so. I don’t seem to have talent. It would be nice if I could do everything as quickly as Master…” Tang-E replied with a sullen expression.

“Why? What happened?” Hyeonu asked with a surprised look at the rare expression that Tang-E showed.

“No… I’m learning from my father, but I can’t do it well. I want to do what my father showed me…”

“Hey, how can you do it right away like Hugo? How old is Hugo? He has probably practiced this skill a lot more than you. You don’t have to be so greedy.” Hyeonu raised his hand and stroked Tang-E’s head while offering words of comfort. It was inevitable. Tang-E, who started learning for the first time, couldn’t be the same as Hugo, who started learning many years ago.

“It might seem like I’m doing well, but I’m a joke compared to my teacher. You’ve seen him, so you know. Those monsters. We can’t be like them. Time is needed,” Hyeonu comforted Tang-E.

“Understood, Master dude. I will practice slowly. It’s just that… I hate practicing with my mother. Dad teaches me well, but Mom doesn’t. She is too scary.”

“It can’t be helped, Tang-E. It is your fate.” Hyeonu shook his head.

Hyeonu couldn’t interfere with the type of teaching. This was Hugo and Manong’s business.

‘I’ll have to ask them for a favor when I see them later.’

However, he could talk to them at least once. Just then, Hyeonu’s eyes narrowed.

“Tang-E, you know that the best practice is to actually use it, right? You will have to practice like last time.”

The divine world’s army entered Hyeonu’s sights once again.
