While Davey had caused a massive stir in Alf Online at Neltarid’s request, something else was agitating the Earth's online community.

[World Raid. Spilling the tea about Malicious Spirit Goumda.]

A post began in a playful, or perhaps, arrogant tone.

[There was an emergence of an unprecedented raid boss in Alf Online—a gwhere the whole world is divided into servers. But these numerous national territories were defeated when this powerful creature appeared in the game. Not only were they defeated, but the players also incurred severe damage, just like the NPCs. Then the territories conquered by the monster were instantly turned into dungeons, transforming into extremely challenging fields. This forced many users, who had considered these places in the glike home, to relocate. So to handle this disaster, famous guilds from various countries were mobilized to hunt the beast down.]

[But as you know, this darn ghas insane patterns of monsters, items and stats. Even if the top one percent of players banded together for the raid, the chance of success still remained to be low. So why bother talking more about it? The patterns are literally 'you die,' and that's it. You just die. To be honest, I was skeptical about anyone beating it.]

[But a gwouldn't exist without methods for conquering it.]

[So sguilds teamed up and activated a special quest that manifested something like the ancient god's mark, right? But surprisingly, while the manifestation was successful, it had no effect on the monster. The raid failed again, everyone died en masse and retreated. That's when the raid began to take a strange new course.]

The post sparked countless reactions, drawing a considerable amount of views on community sites and related videos on intebroadcasting platforms, receiving a steady stream of hits.

[Surrounded and nearly annihilated, things suddenly changed. The mark of the ancient god reacted for the first time, summoning an NPC. You all know who.]

Attached to the post was a photo of a young man dressed in black regalia with a nonchalant expression.

[At first, everyone was puzzled. All the NPCs were dead or fleeing, but then, he appeared with an audacious nerve in the middle of the chaos.]

The narrative continued with coarse language, further detailing the events.

[But of course, you know this NPC. Anyone would recognize him as the Saint of Tionis. Anyway, he showed up, and the raid turned bizarre. As if apologizing for his late arrival, he burst onto the scene and fought the raid boss, attacking it brutally. Then, BAM! The boss mob took a massive amount of damage and just dropped dead.]

A photo of the raid boss taking a critical hit was inserted in the post.

[Honestly, it gavethe chills. You know this gdoesn't boost damage numbers for events or anything. That damage was all him. A whooping 990 million! And the funniest part? That was just the limit, so it could have gone much higher. Even considering the twelve million of the boss's health that was barely scratched, its defeat still seemed trivial. But what happened next was the real issue.]

[The boss that was thought to be dead suddenly went berserk and began transforming into a different entity. And there before the Saint of Tionis, Goumda, one of the twelve terrible Malicious Spirits in Alf Online, appeared. And Goumda's health? Thirty times more than the previous monster’s! It was a staggering 360 million.]

[How do you beat 360 million health when even twelve million was already overwhelming? And with its ridiculously high defense, attacks barely made a dent.]

[The Saint of Tionis stepped in once again, summoning a colossal Yellow Dragon from the sky. A massive beam was then unleashed, rapidly depleting the beast's HP.]

[Everyone thought this was their chance since Goumda could not fight back. Honestly, during the battle, the Black Wind guild master even had a comical moment offering the Saint of Tionis and the Sword Princess employment contracts, but let's get back to that later. Anyhow, the damage of the Yellow Dragon's insane beam evaporated the 360 million HP, causing everyone to gasp in awe. Then, just as the HP was about to run out, a roar resounded. All players were eliminated on the spot. I may not admit it publicly, but I was included too. It was just a single roar, and yet, even those at full health were instantly killed by its immense power. And then the beast went into a frenzy, and its HP jumped to one billion! Damn! It was completely hopeless. I was just staring in disbelief when the Saint of Tionis dismissed the Yellow Dragon and made a move. I've attached a video below.]

The clip showed the youth, who was known as the Saint of Tionis. He was holding a pure white dagger as he began to disappear. Suddenly, with a dramatic effect, huge red slashes surged so fast that by the tGoumda seemed to realize what just happened, its form had already collapsed.

[Do you get it? A critical hit was 990 million, so we thought any significant damage would only be around ten or twenty million. We also assumed that players would join forces to take down the 360 million HP beast. But that was not the case. The s990 million damage burst out, and just like that, all the one billion HP vanished in one hit.]

[What happened next is hilarious. As you know, NPCs normally don't accept contracts unless certain triggers or affinities are met. But the kicker? The Saint of Tionis and the Sword Princess accepted them. So after the boss died, the loot dropped. It turned out that these two NPCs were the only ones who could pick them all up. That was why it looked like the Black Wind Guild would monopolize the insane haul. But that was not the case. LOL! Just imagine it: Black Wind Guild hoarding all the drop items. But that's too far-fetched, right?]

The post ended with a meme-infused explanation and one last video attachment of the NPC known as Davey, the Saint of Tionis, collecting everything into a bag and disappearing.

[Summary. First, the boss raid was ultimately successful. Second, the second Malicious Spirit that was very hyped up entered and exited the battle in a blink of an eye. Third, the Saint of Tionis's critical damage broke the balance. Fourth, the Black Wind guild master, who blew two expensive contracts, LOL.]

Responses were fiery. Scomplained about the cheap scripting, while others marveled at the incredible scene. There were also swho wondered just how powerful the Saint of Tionis was to achieve such feats, while others speculated that the Saint might actually be one of the demonic beings himself. A number of people even theorized that the next raid might be about killing the Saint of Tionis.

“So? What the heck have you been up to that has the community in flames right now? You know it's a hot mess, right?” Hydro exclaimed in shock, holding out a printed post from the community site.

“You've caused mayhem in just one day. The Black Wind Guild is searching for you and are already on their way here. Sare even saying they need to capture you to make you participate in the raid.”

“That figures,” Davey replied.

To them, Alf Online was still just a gsolely for their pleasure. Situations that did not cater to their desires would naturally fail to pique their interest. Humans, who were engrossed in entertainment, could becso cruel and terrifying. That was precisely why he had rejected Neltarid's proposal and had not utilized these people's strengths.

It was easy to control them. Just offering rewards would already do the trick. But at the stime, the risk of betrayal was high with humans who reveled in amusement.

Exasperated, Hydro exclaimed once again, saying, “I can’t believe that you, the hot topic worldwide, are standing right before my eyes.”

“Want one?” Davey teased, offering out one of Goumda's scales from his bundle.

“Crazy! These things are worth a fortune!” Hydro's eyes gleamed at the sight of the item that could earn him money. “Aaah… One Arabian prince said he'd give a billion just to get one.”

“Then I won't give it,” Davey shrugged.

Why should he give such a valuable item away?

Realizing his slip, disappointment flickered in Hydro's eyes.

“Take it,” Davey suddenly offered, handing over the scale.

“Eh? You’re giving it away? But it's worth a billion!”

A billion in a regular online RPG could insanely topple ranking boards. And then the market just decided that this uncertain item would be a billion. It was preposterous! It showed just how limitless Alf Online was, going far beyond mere combat. If one wanted to live in a lavish and expensive mansion, they could simply becarchitects, buy land in the game, and construct it themselves. It was all surprisingly detailed. No job or task went to waste.

“In Alf Online, that's not all you can do. If you practice skills there, it applies outside as well. That’s why there was that incident where a top PVP fighter beat a gang seven to one in a real fight.”

Of course, it was not just by experiencing it that this happened, but Davey chose to not say anything.

“So… Are you really giving it? It’s a billion-dollar item, you know?”

“Do you have any idea how much money this territory has?”

“Huh?”

“Hieuga!”

At Davey's call, someone hustled over at once.

“Have you summoned me, my lord?” A cat beastfolk girl with twitchy ears and a cute smile approached them.

“Show him how ridiculously wealthy this territory is,” Davey instructed.

This was not the first tHieuga had been involved in displaying such insane wealth. So she quickly dashed off without any qualms about the given order and returned after a few moments with a cart of gold bars that were piled high in a pyramid. And as they clinked while they were being moved, Hydro's initially puzzled face turned into one of shock. It was not everyday someone witnessed a pile of gold bars stacked taller than them.

“Money? We’re overflowing with it. Need any?”

The Heins Territory's earnings were initially just from Moon Leaves and other miscellaneous goods. But everything changed with the arrival of the jackpot, Aeonitia O’Rowane. The little girl had invented things that sold astronomically across the continent. In a short amount of time, her creativity made the Heins Territory unimaginably wealthy. Aeonitia might have realized by now that she was tied down to the Heins Territory, but there was no need to worry. Her big brother would take care of her for life.

Davey watched with a cheeky smile as Hydro bit a gold bar to test its authenticity. He then asked, “Do you know anyone in the production professions?”

“Prod… Production?” Hydro echoed, confused.

“Yeah.”

“No… I mean… Well, I have a friend who’s a blacksmith and also a biologist…”

“Can you introduce them to me?”

“I can’t bring them here.”

“It’s okay. Just summon them to any field out there.”

With Davey's instruction, Hydro looked confused. “But why do you need a producer?”

“To process these,” Davey said, referring to the items he gained against Goumda.

After all, Alf items were best processed the Alf way for optimal efficiency.

“No, that won’t do. My friend has no money, and his blacksmithing skill level isn’t high enough yet. It takes a lot of money and grueling work to level it up.”

Davey simply shrugged. “Doesn't matter.”

If a level was low, then one simply needed to level it up.

“Did I not tell you that, as an NPC, I can assign you quests?”

“Well, yes… You did.”

“And set the rewards too?”

“Yes.”

“That settles it then.”
