Chapter 36: 35

A/N:

An excerpt from chapter 26 [Demon King Yuri Is Born!]:

[Many screams sounded from the places where the lasers landed on. Furthermore, Gigataro rotated his body in place, leaving nothing around us unburned!

[You have defeated Player: Yario! You have defeated Player: Seele (TN: Previously Sil)! You have defeated Player: Korin! You have defeated Player: Zansword!]

[Sad News] The evil, red-headed beauty Seele-chan died like an extra getting caught up in the laser attacks…! (´;ω;｀)

Just read through the patch notes again, and man it’s awful.

Well yeah, I’m happy about the addition of the camera mode, new towns, and new quests, tons of ‘em in fact, but they totally killed the Summoner x Bow x Luck build.

108. A Passing Adventurer

>>107

Ah, the Demon King build. I mean, even though Yuri annihilated 99% of the 30,000 total participants in the battle royale, there’s no need to nerf her that much. They practically crushed her to bits…

Other summoners end up getting caught in this mess too, right?

109. A Passing Adventurer

>>108

Finally, some attention to Summoners! Well, the fact that our monsters’ stats go down sucks, but we can still make up for it with buff-type arts like Power Burst.

It can double the stats of all monsters for a few seconds in one cast, so it didn’t affect us as much as I thought it would. The arts drain MP like water, though.

130. A Passing Adventurer

>>109

Oh, a fellow Summoner. Yeah, the update didn’t impact us that much so far.

I read they now limit how long a boss monster can be summoned, but I mean, Yuri’s the only one who has tamed boss monsters LOL

Well, on a more serious note, for them to completely crushed the winner’s build is kinda a dick move on the devs’ part…

151. A Passing Adventurer

>>130

But they can’t just leave it be, either.

The number of new players has apparently increased by 50,000 due to the influence of Yuri’s event video.

It seems the count is still going up, and with that many people, there’s bound to be someone who’s gonna overcome the hurdle of taming a Living Weapon and acquire that crazy fighting power.

If that nightmare were to get mass-produced, albeit inferior, it’s gonna be hell, I tell you… I honestly pity Yuri, but I can only tell her to choke back her tears…

173. A Passing Adventurer

Hey guys, try searching ‘PK Channel’!

It’s owned by a group of PKs led by a girl named Seele and they do live streams of them doing, well, PK, and they’re fighting Yuri at the moment!

It’s insane! Like, for real insane! Look it up now!!!!!!!!

176. A Passing Adventurer

>>173

What, is Demon King Yuri getting her butt kicked or something? I don’t wanna see that… she’s crazy hot, and my image of her being the strongest will be destroyed…

179. A Passing Adventurer

>>176

No, no, no, no! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!! People are explodiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing?!?!

180. A Passing Adventurer

>>173

Lemme see~

Hang on, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh?!?!?!

240. A Passing Adventurer

Woaaaaaaaaaah LOLOLOLOL the hell is this LOLOLOLOL she’s still going strong LOLOLOLOL

294. A Passing Adventurer

I’m playing it back from the start!

Hang on, seriously, what the hell’s this LOLOL Why’s she shooting swords and spears LOLOLOL

She says “Activate skill, ‘Arms Barrier’”, but isn’t that the skill at the very bottom of the Strongest Skill Ranking?! It’s written that it’s a Summoner-only skill and that it’s meant to defend, but you can use it like that?!

And the opponents hit by her arrows explode LOLOLOLOL She completely turns the table on the PKs LOLOLOL What the hell are the devs doing, she’s gotten stronger instead LOLOLOLOL

310. A Passing Adventurer

Woaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, she’s declaring war on the devs and us!!!!

Or rather, Seele-chan has become teary-eyed because her channel is hijacked LOLOLOLOL

315. A Passing Adventurer

>>310

The Demon King is still reigning strong! This is hyping me up!!!

Alright, I’m gonna create the strongest guild and challenge Yuri!!!

350. A Passing Adventurer

>>315

Count me in!

I mean, we can now convert real currency to in-game currency with the exchange rate of 1,000 yen for 10,000 gold… I’ll show her the power of an adult!

388. A Passing Adventurer

>>350

Stop P2W LOLOLOL

Conversely, however, 1 million gold will only be worth 1,000 yen. It’s a total scam, those greedy devs

Oh yeah, the weapons Yuri shoots around… they’re all rare weapons, right? How much would she get if she sold them all, I wonder?

400. A Passing Adventurer

>>388

Many of them are event-limited weapons, so I’m sure it would come to 10 million gold at least

412. A Passing Adventurer

>>400

How envious, this means that winning events is the ticket to getting rich, right! In this day and age, even watching videos can earn you money after all!

Okay, I was a bit discouraged because of the update, but since Yuri’s still the strongest, I can’t stay moping about forever and get my game on! I’m gonna aim to win events, too!!!

413. A Passing Adventurer

…Speaking of, the developer of this game is apparently a team of up-and-coming geniuses who just graduated from a famous engineering university. They developed the game’s cutting-edge VR system by themselves.

Since they’re geniuses, they must have slipped in rants in the last update as a joke, right? I mean, it’s not uncommon for games to mix some jokes in their official announcements.

415. A Passing Adventurer

>>413

Why are you even asking that LOL They’ve gotta have a screw loose in their heads, otherwise LOLOLOLOL

They’re just putting on a show like they’re not getting along well, while behind they are buddy-buddy with each other. They went to the same university after all.

Okay, I wanna overthrow Yuri too, so I’ve gotta go grinding!

◆◆◇◆

“…How are we supposed to deal with this?”

“How the hell did she do it…?”

――In a dark conference room, several people were perplexed while looking at a three-dimensional window floating in the center of the room.

The three-dimensional window was displaying Yuri’s battle scene that had been streamed by a player named Seele a few hours prior, as well as graphs showing the steadily increasing number of new players and the amount of money charged by players after the stream.

“This player’s performance during the event has greatly helped us get a lot of attention, but… mm, she is too overpowered…”

“We’ve resorted to nerfing her, but how did she become even stronger in just the short span of one day…! Is she really the last boss and this is her second form or something? She’s such a pain to deal with…!”

“This girl is bad news… she’s found a bug in the system and remodeled ‘Arms Barrier’ into a combat-oriented skill… Her obsession with becoming stronger is too much…!”

“The analysis’s result is out. It seems that it’s less of a bug and more of an out-of-spec happening in the effect of the skill.

The shot weapons got treated as ‘shooting attack’ because the player was wielding a bow when activating ‘Arms Barrier’.

It caused the setting ‘enemy who is stabbed by summoned weapons takes damage’ to overwrite the ‘shot’ as an attack.”

“Ah~, in short, the system mistook the weapons as arrows, yeah? In this game, players can only use the weapon type they choose during the character creation, but the bow is the only weapon that allows you to use another weapon that is the ‘arrow’. It can’t be helped that the system made such a mistake.

“Yuri-chan really did well finding this trick~. She’s smart, cute, strong, isn’t she just the best?”

“Don’t become her fan?! …Hey Skill Development’s PIC, you take care of this!”

“I-I’m sorry! I-I will announce an emergency update right away and fix ‘Arms Barrier’ so the system doesn’t judge it as an attack. That should solve the problem. While I’m at it, I will also fix Shadow Weapon’s ‘Dark Clone’ so that it can’t make people explode…!”

“You dumbass?! Yesterday’s update already left us a mountain of protests from the people who started the game because they admired Yuri?!

It’s one thing if this video didn’t exist, but now that it has gone viral among the player base, there would be an even greater storm of protests if we went along with your plan! If we repeatedly nerf a certain player, the other players would quit the game in droves, you dumbass!”

“Who the hell are you calling dumbass, Stats’s PIC?! The nerve of you spouting your mouth off when you’re the only one having it easy! Get the fuck out of the team, you goldbricker!”

“What did ya say?!”

…The (shitty) developers made a ruckus. Back in the university, they had been kicking each other down to get top grades, and they were on pretty bad terms, truthfully.

In addition, since they had trodden down the elite course, they had never done part-time jobs or the sorts, and they had almost no social experience.

Even what the players thought as jokes in the patch notes of the last update were, in truth, written with their honest feelings.

“You wanna get down, huuuh?!”

“What was that? You asked for a beating?!”

When it came to skills as a developer, they were exceptional, but once they snapped, they couldn’t be stopped. The meeting devolved from an exchange of opinions to an exchange of curses, they were all just wasting their energy in vain.

…And so, they decided to maintain the status quo in the end.

Their excuse was the game had become a hot topic thanks to Yuri. In fact, they came to the idea of having her do her best for free publicity.

“—Well, even if something goes wrong, tomorrow’s matter will be taken care of by tomorrow me. It’s already time, so I’m clocking out!”

“Ah~… it’s true. Well, we can just leave ‘Arms Barrier’ bug as a ‘trick’! If we fix it, the players will protest again, anyway. Alright, I’m gonna go back too!”

“We’ve developed a high-performance AI for fixing bugs exactly so that we don’t need to stay late at night! Well, all it can do is fix bugs, and it can’t stop players from doing strange stuff, but there’s no way anything gonna go wrong in the short time we’re off!”

And so, the (shitty) developers left the conference room shouting “Leaving on time is the best~!” They had practically never been cornered yet, so their sense of danger was nonexistent.

Not knowing how much of a mess Yuri was going t create, they went home in high spirits…!
