God of War Weed
The History of Versailles’ Continent is KMC Media’s most popular story.
Shin Hye Min concentrated on the program that held the interest of many Royal Road players.
“Yes, during today’s program, we will be informing you of the prices of several the basic goods in each Kingdom. By the way, Oh Juwan, I’ve heard that you have something very important that you wish to tell us?”
“That’s right. Many players have their attention focused on Bikeijeu Kingdom.”
“Why is that? What’s happening there?”
“For example, there is a massive legion of monsters heading towards Bikeijeu Kingdom. These monsters came down from the Beurukei Mountains, their detailed travel route is unknown, but we are urgently gathering information.”
Anything befitting the Versailles Continent, they will even provide the most basic information. Information on prices, monster and travel routes of legions, they had it all.
If a novice was near a legion they would not be able to stop trembling.
Tens of thousands of monsters were slaughtering people as they travelled.
For traders this was hell but, for Mercenaries, it was very good news. When you participate in a monster suppression quest given by Royal or Feudal Lords, the rewards and contribution points were tremendous.
Although many did not participate, there were many higher leveled Mercenaries that attended. It was an extraordinary experience to be able to watch the movement of monsters in battle.
Therefore, there was massive interest in urgently subduing the travelling monster army.
However, not many viewers were interested in the travelling Monsters heading towards Bikeijeu Kingdom.
"Yes, this will conclude our story of Bikeijeu Kingdom."
Shin Hye Min proceeded with the news broadcast quickly. She was well aware of what the viewers were all waiting for. On the host’s monitor, she could see thousands of viewers commenting.
- When will that person be appearing on-air?
- When he appears, please ask him about the latest news.
- Please ask him about the Legions of Undead, and what item he acquired after defeating Tori.
- I am a level 380, one of the Maul Knights. My strength is a force to be reckoned with wherever I go. Can he keep up?
- I am a level 385 Monk and I want to at least watch him hunt. Please tell him.
These were the comments in the viewer section.
A few days ago, KMC media even released a trailer as an advertisement stating that they would do a telephone interview with the player who was famous in Continent of Magick and now in Royal Road.
Because of this, many people’s interests flared, which resulted to doubling the usual view count. Even a skilled host like Shin Hye Min could not help from having her mouth dry.
"We have released a notice that today, we will have an interview with the person who has the character named "Weed". Once again, Weed was known to be the strongest and highest level in the Continent of Magick! With the Legions of Undead defeated, Weed was available for an interview."
“Really Shin Hye Min? I was skeptical when you said you were going broadcast his interview, but is Weed REALLY going to appear?!”
Oh Juwan couldn’t hide his excitement.
"Yes, it is true. We have already set up the telephone connection. It is all good to go."
"Of course. There is no other hero like Weed."
Oh Juwan had heard a lot of stories about Weed.
In one of the Continent of Magick’s dungeon, it was known to be unconquerable, but he cleared it and even defeated the boss monster! This had become a legend.
Because he was able to conduct an interview with the very same Weed, Oh Juwan was bound to be glad.
The Production Director was looking at Shin Hye Min through the monitor, ready to type.
The phone call.
“Yes, then I will start the interview with Weed-nim.”
Shin Hye Min did not waste any time. Too many people were waiting for this.
In Royal Road, she would sometimes whisper Weed to have a conversation. Even still, she had times where she trembled because she was with the Weed that everyone talked about, how much more would other people be looking forward to this?
Hello?
The moment the voice came through the studio, hearts leaped.
- He came at last!
- Weed is speaking.
- The phone call with Weed went through!
or every 10 seconds, there was at least 100 comments. This shows how much people were concentrated on the broadcast.
Shin Hye Min effortlessly kept the conversation going.
“Hello, Weed-nim. During the course of the interview, I’ll be referring to you with your character’s name. Is that alright?”
-Yes.
Weed replied simply. Being called by his character name than by his full name would be best. How much of a pain would it be to be remembered as the Princess Knight!
Oh Juwan is in the studio, please say hello to each other.
“This is Oh Juwan. It is an honor to talk to the highly renowned Weed.”
It’s a pleasure to meet you.
“Please greet the viewers.”
Hello there.
Lee Hyun replied succinctly.
Shin Hye Min’s insides burned.
‘His answers cannot be short like this!’
This was a broadcast. Viewers were definitely looking for a more smoother broadcast than this short one.
There were ways to read the script that the writers prepared before that would increase the dramatic effect, but this was not the case. A real time interview does not have any lines prepared beforehand.
Shin Hye Min asked while laughing.
Weed-nim, is there any matter that is making your mood bad?”
Just a little bit.
“Yes? Is it because of me?”
Yes.
At this unexpected answer, Shin Hye Min and Oh Juwan were embarrassed.
When you do a interview you do not want to have the involved parties complaining. Although they had wanted it to remain that way, Lee Hyun did not reply did not comply.
‘This broadcast is a failure!’
Shin Hye Min felt sweat on her palms. However, she had to continue the interview.
“How would you like me to reply? If you want an apology, I'll apologize, if something needs to be fixed, I'll fix it.”
That is, is it okay to be like this?
Hmm?
You asked me to call you at 7 in the evening, but if you were going to hold an interview like this you should have called me. The phone bill is so expensive.
"..."
The skilled host, Shin Hye Min was lost for words. Oh Juman, who was also lost for words, wasn’t any help either.
They thought that it was some great inconvenience that the station would have to apologize for!
‘He’s so cheap!’
Only the frugal Lee Hyun could surprise them like this.
Soon, Shin Hye Min got a grip of herself.
“Yes, that was our fault. But we are very curious about Weed’s action. First, selling your Continent of Magick’s account. When it happened, the internet was in a huge uproar.”
There was nobody who didn't know that Lee Hyun sold his Continent of Magick account.
At that time, the game was no longer as famous as Royal Road.
For many years, Continent of Magick was very popular, but it started going downhill as Royal Road became popular.
After purchasing his account, CTS media immediately halted the program which covered virtual reality games to hold a big event.
The items Weed had and even the records of him clearing the dungeons were broadcasted!
Because of there were still many who played Continent of Magick, this event gained high ratings.
Likewise, for the company who owned Continent of Magick, this was a huge help for them to try and overtake Royal Road.
Continent of Magick once again became very popular and in time, more and more famous accounts were sold to the media.
Shin Hye Min said it in a jealous way.
"I heard that when you sold your account, you earned a huge amount of whopping 3 billion won. That is a lot of money. Did you buy a foreign car with the money or bought something excessive?"
Lee Hyun’s reply was very concise.
