Your Commander-in-Chief – Chapter 195

A user from Deron is dominating in the regular matches.

A small rumor started to circulate in the VRS gallery.

But it didn’t grab significant attention. It was common for users from other games to switch over to VRS, and most of them eventually faded away quietly anyway.

So everyone thought.

“Just someone who will be forgotten soon.”

But then a new post went up, and the topic in the gallery started to shift little by little.

The author of the post was a viewer watching Wilhelm’s stream, who summarized the information they could gather from the broadcast and posted it.

Naturally, the post was accompanied by a massive amount of data gleaned from the Deron gallery.

[Do you remember when the pros got wrecked in the last event battle?] [22]

(Yeo raising her hand while displaying demon wings in a screenshot)

(A screenshot featuring a white panty)

(Yeo in a samurai pose pointing her sword in a screenshot)

(VRS and Deron collaboration event battle video)

I bet some might remember.

The pros held a tournament in the game Deron.

It seems the winner switched over to VRS.

[Another screenshot from a sh*t game?]

[What’s up with the armpit? It looks soft and chewy, haha.]

[Lolllllllllllllll]

[Did this guy really switch over? Lol, is Deron doomed?]

ㄴ[No, no, no, I think he’s just trying it out ahead of the event battle.]

[Are you sure about this? This guy is somewhat famous in Deron, right?]

ㄴ[Famous for what? His armpit?]

ㄴ[Yup.]

[Whoa….]

[Hey, guys! Don’t use bad language here. That person uses a character that looks just like them in real life.]

ㄴ[Don’t be ridiculous, lolololololololol]

ㄴ[It’s real, there were verified photos posted…]

ㄴ[Whoa…]

[Ah, haha, look at his face; I wanna smack him with my metal bat, lol.]

ㄴ[For real, lololol]

ㄴ[This guy’s IP shows he’s in Romania?]

[Did he really beat the pros? How did he win?]

ㄴ[He didn’t win against the pros, he just won in his own game.]

ㄴ[So the pros didn’t really get wrecked.]

[So is he better than Yerin?]

ㄴ[Yerin quit VRS, didn’t she?]

ㄴ[When is that runner gonna stop worshipping that goshdang idol? Lol.]

ㄴ[I heard Yerin is going to play Deron?]

[If I play the game Deron, will I meet her?]

[It’s white, lololololololol]

The users in the gallery were certainly piqued.

However, their interest lay more in the cute character and the screenshots that had crossed over from the Deron gallery than in the user’s skills.

Thirsty for attention, they quickly began to spread a collection of screenshots sourced from the Deron gallery, resulting in the front page of VRS gallery being filled with all things Yeo.

This was the moment when the image and username of the user Yeo were firmly etched into the minds of the VRS gallery users.

Even the people over at Deron gallery were not unaware of this fact.

After all, people coming from VRS were asking for Yeo’s information and a collection of screenshots.

[Blood Demon King has escaped Deron, lololololololol] [25]

(A screenshot of the concept post list from VRS gallery)

This can’t be happening…

The soft and chewy armpit has escaped from Deron…

I can’t stand it… but there’s nothing I can do…

All I can do is beg and plead…

Please come back…

You are the eternal gallery master of Deron gallery…

[Lolololololololol]

[Whoa… Blood Demon King… I’m feeling cold…]

ㄴ[Waaah… Blood Demon King…]

ㄴ[You crazy bastards;;]

[I saw this coming, lol, such a devilish twist, lololololol]

ㄴ[Devil indeed…]

ㄴ[Whoa…]

[As expected, the gallery master is Jupiter, lolololololol]

ㄴ[For real, lol, Jupiter never betrays, lol.]

ㄴ[Tweet tweet, lolololololololol]

[You said “gold” and ran off to a sparrow, lol.]

ㄴ[No way, our Blood Demon King will return.]

ㄴ[For real…]

[Isn’t he just trying it out for the event battle or something?]

ㄴ[Did you see the participation requirements for the VRS event battle? Blood Demon King isn’t participating in the arena this season, so he can’t enter.]

ㄴ[Whoa…]

[Are you not updating your panty collection anymore?]

ㄴ[Sounds about right…]

ㄴ[The world is doomed…]

ㄴ[I screamed, tearing my genitals apart.]

The opinions of the parties involved didn’t matter.

As users from Deron gallery were playing VRS, seeking out Blood Demon King, they were in desperate need of fuel to ignite the fire immediately.

Illusions began to lead to even bigger delusions, and they rapidly started to turn those tales into accepted facts.

[Blood Demon King is debuting as a VRS pro?] [11]

Is that for real?

[Comments]

[How would I know?]

ㄴ[That’s what I’m asking. Is it real?]

ㄴ[I haven’t heard anything like that?]

ㄴ[I haven’t heard anything. Just my personal thought.]

ㄴ[?????????]

[I think I heard something similar.]

ㄴ[Where did you hear that?]

ㄴ[Right here.]

ㄴ[You little jerk.]

If you feel the gallery master has changed, press that like button, lololololol]

If the gallery master is cute, press that like button, lolololol

[Chirp, lol]

[Chirp, lololol]

[Chirp chirp? lololololol]

[Chirp, lolololol]

[Are you guys sparrows? Can you at least talk like humans?]

ㄴ[The gallery is doomed;;]

[Why is the gallery master here in the main gallery, you crazy buttheads?]

ㄴ[Chirp, lololololol]

As a result, the Deron gallery began forming a vibe of sending off the Blood Demon King.

As fans who claimed to support her subtly began shifting back towards Jupiter, a new post appeared.

[Jupiter suddenly going hard on the arena?] [15]

(A screenshot of Deron’s arena ranking)

Wasn’t he supposed to be someone who didn’t participate in the arena?

Looking at the rankings, he suddenly secured 37th place, huh?

And that’s just a day after rising from outside the top 50.

Is he trying to join the VRS event battle?

[Comments]

[What? Is the sparrow abandoning us?]

ㄴ[These guys were trash-talking Jupiter so hard just a while ago, lololololol]

ㄴ[Why are you bringing up my past?]

[Haha, the 2nd gallery master is also on the run, lololololol]

[Chirp?????????????]

[Chirp chirp, boo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo]

[Is he just going for the event battle?]

ㄴ[For real;;;]

ㄴ[Didn’t the Blood Demon King also go just for the event battle?]

ㄴ[But he’s not in the arena rankings, is he…?]

ㄴ[He could participate just by virtue of being last season’s winner, couldn’t he?]

ㄴ[Oh…]

[That makes sense, lol, I never liked that sparrow from the start, lol. He doesn’t even show his armpits, lol.]

ㄴ[For real, lolololololololol]

[Ah, lolololololololol]

“Hmm…”

Ellie nodded as she checked the message that appeared before her.

Recently, having focused on the Deron arena above all else, she had achieved satisfactory results.

The highest arena ranking she achieved was 15th.

She could have gone higher, but due to a white pain irritating her head, she could no longer continue playing the game.

Regardless, Ellie’s goal wasn’t to reach a high arena rank.

It was the pure white angel wings.

The wide and expansive white angel wings were Ellie’s objective.

If she could just participate in VRS’s event battle, she could obtain that special costume.

She had gotten her hands on it.

Ellie lay back on her soft bed, swinging her short legs.

Though her expression wasn’t good due to the piercing white pain, a little song slipped from her lips.

Ellie placed her hand on her forehead and closed her eyes.

To soothe the white pain as quickly as possible, she needed to let time pass without thinking about anything.

How much time passed like that?

Ellie, who started to doze off while lying on her fluffy bed, shook her head and got up.

She had achieved all her goals. Now she planned to head back to Deron and continue the special quest she had been working on.

As a Guide of Light, she needed to start tracking the faint divinity of the Fallen Moonlight.

But there was something she needed to do first.

This was the task she had been working hardest on recently.

It was to write her story in the Deron gallery.

Turning on her phone and logging into the Deron gallery, Ellie’s brow furrowed.

The concept posts were entirely filled with stories about the Blood Demon King.

This was not a normal state.

Ellie first thought of her Soft & Chewy Raccoon – Blood Demon King.

She had learned a lot from her, including an easy way to “consume” concept posts like cake.

Could it be—

No, it couldn’t be.

Shaking her head, Ellie checked the content of the concept post.

As a result, she found out that the posts uploaded today were not the work of the Blood Demon King.

“VRS…? Event battle…?”

Ellie tilted her small head in confusion.

The Blood Demon King? Why would her rival be involved?

But she hadn’t achieved the ranking condition for the arena.

That means she wouldn’t be able to participate in the event battle unlike herself.

Guide of Light – [Soft & Chewy Raccoon.]

Guide of Light – [Soft & Chewy Raccoon, are you busy…?]

Ellie stared blankly at her silent phone.

The subject who would always reply swiftly was now silent.

“VRS…”

If there’s no reply, I’ll just have to go find her myself.

Based on the information she gathered from the gallery, it seemed the Blood Demon King was currently playing VRS.

In other words, if she connected to VRS as well, it meant she could meet the Blood Demon King.

Immediately, Ellie jumped up from her seat.

[Ellie. You have an unanswered call from the master…]

“Silence.”

Ellie silenced the noisy canister robot and crawled into the capsule.

To her, Blood Demon King was more important than a phone call from her father.

Ellie quickly installed VRS on her capsule.

After the initial installation, she created an account and logged into the game.

Ellie was captivated by the stunning trailer unfolding before her.

It must be an important video; it might contain critical information about the game she was about to play.

Ellie never skipped this video even once.

Samurai, Viking, and Knight leapt out swinging their weapons at each other.

Rolling on the ground, swinging swords, sometimes picking up stones from the ground and throwing them.

While watching this fierce and desperate battle in a daze, Ellie realized the video had already ended.

“Whoa…”

So cool.

Ellie immediately entered the character creation screen.

Having watched the trailer, she had already decided on the character she wanted to play in her heart.

Without hesitation, Ellie selected the Knight character.

Upon selecting her character, the detailed character customization feature was activated.

Without second thoughts, Ellie brought her real-life appearance into VRS.

Then, a red message popped up before Ellie’s eyes.

[Warning! The strength stat limit for this body type is 6.]
