The first faction battle of Deron has concluded.
Given that it was the first confrontation between the demons and humans since the event battle, anticipation was high.
Even if you didn’t play the game directly, you could watch everything unfold through personal broadcasts.
From the strategies used by both the human and demon factions to the pivotal moments that turned the tide of battle.
The result was a victory for the demon faction, but it couldn’t really be called a landslide win.
However, the outcome remained unchanged.
Various communities on Deron started posting about the faction battle.

[I’m a demon clan member, but I’ll think of him as a sparrow from now on]
ㄴ[For real, seems not human]
ㄴ[😂😂😂]
[Why did the Holy Sword end up with that guy?]

ㄴ[Whoa;;]
[Didn’t that guy say he’d show some strategy?]
ㄴ[Well, he did, lol]
ㄴ[Showed it by dying in flight]

ㄴ[Who’s Melvin?]
ㄴ[Ranked number one thief on the human side]
ㄴ[Thieves can’t equip the Holy Sword, dude.]
[Are there only the Holy Sword and Demon Sword for world items? So other classes can’t find such items?]
ㄴ[Someone asked, and they said there are other items.]
ㄴ[Really? Is there no one who’s gotten one?]
ㄴ[Seems like nothing’s been revealed.]

[Comments]
[The Demon Sword and Holy Sword have similar effects.]
ㄴ[That’s because they’re the same sword lore-wise.]
ㄴ[Is it because it’s a Holy Sword? Must have defensive stats attached. That wasn’t the case with the Demon Sword.]
ㄴ[Seems like it inherits the options of the unreleased Holy Sword.]
[If you could buy this, how much would you pay?]
ㄴ[10,000 gold]
ㄴ[Could you even buy it for that much, lol?]
ㄴ[If it’s trades, the market will be drained of gold on that day.]
[I’ve been grinding the Orc Empire to get this but haven’t gotten a single ring.]
ㄴ[For real, I only have one too, lol.]
ㄴ[Even if you get both, it’s a problem since you have to grind for upgrade materials in the next raid, lol.]
[Who’s the sparrow?]
ㄴ[Jupiter]
ㄴ[Don’t mention that guy’s nickname; he’s likely to come looking for you through searches, he’s a sneaky one.]

Where did all the people saying ninjas suck go? 😂
Thieves are even doing PR now, hahahaha.
Can you still say that after seeing this?
[Comments]
[For real, Melvin never dies. Even when a middle school girl took out the rear healers, he still survived.]
ㄴ[He apparently didn’t get a single death in the faction battle.]
ㄴ[Ninjas are freaking trash.]
[Why does the ninja’s damage suck? How did a few shurikens take out the healers?]
ㄴ[General transformation buff.]
ㄴ[Is that really that good?]
ㄴ[Seems like it based on what I see.]
[That guy’s a crazy killer. Meeting him in the field would be terrifying.]
ㄴ[I think he’s mentally unstable for real.]
[Let him represent the humans.]
ㄴ[For real, I wish that sparrow girl would just shut her mouth.]

After the first faction battle, human clan users hesitated about reincarnating, but started reincarnating into the demon clan.
As a result, the previously lacking demon clan numbers increased significantly, and the system for reincarnating into the demon clan was blocked.
It seems there was a system set up to prevent too many players from crowding into one faction.
Time passed to mid-December, just before Christmas.
Amidst the usual farming of honor points in the hell fields, a new announcement appeared on the Deron homepage.
It was just before the shutdown time.
“Come forth!”
I summoned my wolf to return to the village.
The massive hell wolf that sprang from the great magical formation approached me with a low whine.
“Grr.”
He was always a charming fellow.
I hopped onto the wolf’s back and charged towards the village.
Clop-clop-clop—
Upon entering the village, I started organizing my inventory while checking the announcements on Deron.
[Client Update Notice]
Hello, adventurer.
Deron Online’s update is scheduled for December 14 (Wednesday).
[Client Update Details]
– Christmas Snowflake Event
– Christmas Commemoration Package
– Global Server Launch Commemoration Coin Event
– Global Server Launch Commemoration Package Sale
While scanning through the announcement, I pondered.
It wasn’t strange that a Christmas event had started.
The other world Deron also typically began its Christmas event around this time.
I began to examine the global server launch event and the explanations below it.
Basically, the event’s proceeding method wasn’t vastly different from the Christmas event.
It involved gathering exclusive currency from hunting grounds to exchange for event items.
As I scrolled further down the announcement, I noticed a video attached at the bottom with the Deron game logo.
According to the explanation, a video had been completed to promote the global server.
I squinted my eyes and hit play.
*
On December 14th.
A video was uploaded to Deron’s official YouTube account.
It was a trailer announcing the opening of the global server.
The video began with the Deron game logo.
The video played without narration, showcasing the world of Deron.
Ruins covered in snow, beautiful temples bathed in moonlight, traces of gods that have now vanished.
What was initially a peaceful scene suddenly shifted.
The serene sky of the capital city split open to reveal the gates of hell with demons pouring out beneath.
The hellscape accessible through the gate, and the image of the fallen sun god.
As the footage contrasting good and evil played on, it transitioned to the next scene with a brief flicker.
The next visuals showed user-captured gameplay footage.
A glimpse of users engaging in gathering and life content. Following that, footage of users navigating dungeons and raids.
The well-edited video captured the joys and sorrows of the players.
The screen transitioned again.
This time, the setting was hell.
Not a typical hell, but the battlefield that had become active during the Holy Sword upgrade event.
With the massive sun god and the demon goddess towering over, wielding the Holy Sword and Demon Sword.
It was Jupiter and Yeo.
The sight of the two colliding was fleeting.
Just when the video seemed to be nearing its end, the scene changed again.
The new area displayed was the Salt Desert.
In that sunlit area, the bright white salt reflected the figure of a small girl.
Thud—
The only sound reverberating through the video was the sound of her footsteps.
As the little girl walked for a while, she lifted her head to reveal dozens of enemies before her.
Looking at the foes, she softly declared.
[I am Blood.]
As her voice softly drifted away, she drew her sword.
Swish—
A dark energy began to emanate from her body, and in her hand, the Holy Sword of Sunlight glimmered.
The girl stood fiercely, unwilling to back down even with dozens of enemies before her.
She spoke once more after drawing her sword.
[Come. My sword thirsts for blood.]
With her provocation, the enemies lunged, and the battle commenced.
The girl showcased overwhelming strength, sweeping the enemies away.
Her movements, swirling the dark energy as she wielded the sword, resembled a scene from a martial arts movie.
The moment she struck down the last enemy, the screen transitioned.
