The Hall of Fame was limited to the top 500 players, one of them being Bad Ray with the highest level in the game.
But Lee Hyun wasn’t interested in it.
“I’m not looking for fame. And I wouldn’t like it if people started to recognize me in Royal Road.”
“Really?”
Chang Yoon Soo’s eyes widened. That response was completely unexpected for him. Fame is one of the main desires of people! Even the main goal of Royal Road was to become an emperor and unite the continent!
So a player who refused to become famous was a mystery for him.
“You are, a very unusual person…” – said Chang Yoon Soo with admiration.
“Until now I have only met two types of players. First, those that wish to receive the reward corresponding to their abilities. Second, those that beg for it. The competition among the 500 players is huge and they try to improve their position by any means. But you’re the first one I can’t place into any category.”
Lee Hyun was listening in silence.
‘Damn, I just spent money in vain…’
He was overwhelmed with regret.
But Chang Yoon Soo continued.
“In fact, when you’re featured in Hall of Fame besides the fame itself you get a small bonus. We pay small fees for advertising Royal Road. Depending on the popularity of your videos the fee may be changed, but on average it’s a few million won a month.”
“You said few million won?”
“Yeah. That’s what most players get. As you know there are a huge number of people playing Royal Road and the Hall of Fame is pretty popular. For your advertisements of the game we pay you money. Compared to the amount associated with mass media, the money can only be called chump change.”
“…”
Chang Yoon Soo continued to persuade Lee Hyun.
“This is your chance to become famous! Once you become popular in Hall of Fame you will get attention of media and they will fight for the right to talk with you. And then you will be able to demand the decent reward for interview.”
At the beginning of the game most broadcasting companies were relying on broadcasting the adventures of high-level players. But the audience quickly became bored by it. Players with highest levels were spending all their time on hunting and raising levels. Few of them were able to provide a decent show that would be interesting to watch.
Then broadcasting companies changed their strategy and started inviting only outstanding players who managed to achieve something significant. And most of the candidates were picked from Hall of Fame.
“Our corporation is actively supporting this trend. We created the Hall of Fame to discover the real heroes. And now i met a player who doesn’t need all that and who just wants to enjoy the game. Lee Hyun, I want to say that you’re an amazing person.”
“…”
Lee Hyun looked around.
All the assistants in the conference room were looking at him with admiration.
“He refused money and fame like it was nothing…”
“What a man!”
“He will never be slave to money.”
So they whispered to each other.
Lee Hyun took Chang Yoon Soo’s hand and paying no attention to the surprised looks said:
“Could you place me right to the top of the Hall of Fame?”
