Chapter 919



“What made you decide to naturalize?”

When Jair arrived in Australia, he answered questions from reporters . “I wanted to participate in the National Competition . ”

Jair was ranked 1,071 on the overall rankings . He took pride in his skills and wanted to be a star like the high rankers . However, the United States was too big . The country was overloaded with strong and capable individuals, and Jair became weak in comparison . He didn’t even get elected as a representative . The ‘abundance’ of the United States had taken away Jair’s chance .

“Zibal? It has been a while . ”

At the New York area selection round, hundreds of participants on stage were focused on Zibal . There were a variety of responses from the people . Those who recalled that Zibal had led the United States in the 1st and 2nd National Competitions welcomed him . Meanwhile, those who were disappointed that Zibal took the path of a hermit after facing several defeats frowned . Some people laughed or mocked him openly .

“Shouldn’t you retire after being called a punching bag? Why did you crawl back?”

“Don’t take away other people’s opportunities . ”

There were even those who seemed hostile . Zibal humbly accepted all of it . He knew their hostility came from affection and expectations .

‘They are those who waited for me . ’

Yes, the United States had been waiting . Zibal had been defeated by Russia’s Kraugel and South Korea’s Grid, but it hadn’t changed the fact that he was still one of the best talents in the United States . The American people had hoped he would play an active role again . They had wished the United States would once again be honored as the number one country in the 3rd National Competition . However, Zibal hadn’t responded to the people’s expectations . He had disappeared without a trace and turned away from the 3rd National Competition . Consequently, the United States lost its first place ranking .

The people felt as much betrayal as they had felt hope . As such, Zibal understood that they felt betrayed by him .

“In any case, we have Kraugel . We don’t need you!” A young ranker, who looked in his teens, cried out desperately . He was a boy who once dreamt of seeing America’s ‘captain’, Zibal . Yet the boy’s expectations had been betrayed, and he resented the monster from the east, Grid, for trampling on the United States .

“Hrmm . ” Zibal had already made a speech in the waiting room . He wasn’t kind enough to repeat the words to the candidates who used the other waiting rooms . After all, he just had to show his strength .

The first selection event was PvE . Zibal summoned the ‘Two-Headed Steel Chariot’ and smiled at the boy after trampling on the small creatures .

“The protagonist becomes stronger after overcoming ordeals . Kid, haven’t you seen it many times in movies?”

“Ah . . . Ahh . . . ” The forgotten light of envy filled the boy’s eyes as he looked up at the chariot . All those who laughed or mocked Zibal were silent . Then the second monster wave appeared . The high-speed flying monsters surrounded Zibal . Their sharp claws aimed at Zibal, who seemed to be in a crisis because the chariot only showed its power on the ground .



Zibal just laughed at the monsters and summoned his second ride, “White Accelerator . ”

It was a white lion with large wings . Zibal abandoned the chariot and flew into the sky . He used a huge trident and was able to penetrate through all the monsters . It happened in an instant . Zibal shouted, “The United States will win . I will make it so . I am different from the other losers who abandoned their country! I have overcome my ordeal and returned! I am the true protagonist!”

Zibal’s cry was enough to stimulate the black flame dragon Lauel, who was watching in the distance . Certainly, Zibal was much stronger than he had been two years ago . He was unique even in the United States, which had humbled numerous strong people . Zibal was comparable to Kraugel of last year .

‘Maybe this year . . . ’

‘The combined power of Kraugel and Zibal can beat Grid . . . !’

The American rankers, who still shrank back from the Grid they witnessed last year, started to feel hopeful .

“Victory will be made by me, not you . If you’re done then get out of the way . ”

Step, step . A man pushed his way onto the stage . The young rankers didn’t recognize him, but those older than 20 were amazed and shocked .

“Haster!! It’s Haster?”

The emperor of FPS games—Haster was the mythical pro gamer who created the golden age for America . He was comparable to the Korean FaXer and Lim Xhan . The person who retired from the game world with the release of Satisfy was appearing here . . . ? The emergence of the unexpected figure shocked people .

‘What is with all the fuss?’ The younger generation who didn’t know him felt doubts . Then Haster showed off the power of his unique class, Red Sage . The 1st and 2nd wave monsters were blocked by ice barriers and burned by flames . It wasn’t as exciting as Zibal’s display, but it was neat workmanship without any flaws .

‘Pretty good . ’

Skull and Zephyr watched Zibal and Haster quietly .

‘However, that is all . ’

Skull, 10th on the overall rankings, and Zephyr, 20th on the overall rankings—they had played for the United States in every national competition and knew the harsh reality .

‘They shouldn’t feel elated just by catching a few monsters . ’

‘They can never beat that monster . ’



The monster was Grid . They had met Grid or seen him for three consecutive years and knew how steep Grid’s growth curve was . It was a strength that extended beyond the concept of stats and skills . Rather, it felt like an evolution of a species itself .

‘Grid has already surpassed the limits of a player a long time ago . ’

‘He is someone who has faced a dragon, not just these petty monsters . In order for us to win against South Korea, the United States needs a transcendent who is beyond the limits like Grid . ’

Did they believe this transcendent person was Kraugel? Well, let’s see? Most people didn’t know it, but Skull and Zephyr clearly saw the difference between Grid and Kraugel . At last year’s PvP finals, Grid hadn’t used all his power, but he had broken Kraugel . The person who people had called the ‘sky above the sky’ for several years had been like a child in front of Grid .

‘We should give up on the 1st place spot . ’

Nothing would change even if Zibal and Haster came back . The presence of Grid meant the United States would forever remain in second place . Skull and Zephyr smiled bitterly as the gloomy reality filled their minds .

[The second test will begin . ]


A new system message popped up, and a boss monster appeared . It was an earl grade direct descendant vampire—a monster known to be monopolized by the Overgeared Kingdom .

“I want food . ” The pale vampire revealed his sharp fangs as a bloody magic power swirled around him and took control of the stage . It was the manifestation of Blood Field, which weakened all players .

“Let’s move . ” Skull and Zephyr rushed forward . In order to get a high score in a boss raid, they had to accumulate damage on the boss or pull the boss’ aggro to survive . Skull and Zephyr had no plans to be eliminated in the selection rounds . However, they couldn’t help freezing in place, while the other contestants stepped back or ran into them . The sky was suddenly filled with darkness and thunder . The thunder in the sky split apart .

“What?”

The participants were confused by this turn of events and cried out .

“A-Avoid it!”

A giant descended through a gap in the sky . It was close to five meters tall, and its white coating was reminiscent of a white dragon’s scales . Someone muttered, “Gundam . . . ?”

The emergence of something beyond the vampire earl wasn’t in the participants’ event information . The confused people scattered everywhere, including Haster .

‘What is that monster?’

Mental Protection, the passive skill of the Red Sage, was being threatened by the descent of this giant enemy . Haster’s legs were shaking, and he couldn’t move . Haster bet that most participants were likely to be in a ‘fear’ or ‘confused’ state . What was the identity of the giant that threatened hundreds of rankers just by appearing? Except for one person, all of those present were overwhelmed .

“Come on, Raiders . ”

“ . . . !”

The pressure was lifted the moment the giant appeared on the stage . Haster’s legs stopped trembling while the other participants regained their freedom from the abnormal conditions . Zibal was boarding the giant .

[Synchronizing with Raiders . ]

. . .

. . .

[Synchronization successful!]

[Raiders is operating!]

[The maximum mana is low!]

[The maximum time you can activate Raiders is 21 seconds . ]

“I . . . ”

[Blue Sky Rider]

It was the growth type unique class that Zibal managed to obtain after meeting the 4th imperial prince Edan and carrying out the class quest .

“I am the protagonist . ”

The presence of an artifact class item, Raiders, was enough to place Zibal as the protagonist as he claimed . The parthenon pillars fired and blew away one of the vampire earl’s arms .

‘Maybe . . . !’ Delight filled the faces of Skull and Zephyr .

‘Is this the Zibal that I knew?’ Haster’s eyes shook .

Additionally . . .

‘The Saharan Empire . . . ?’ Lauel witnessed the symbol of the empire engraved on one side of Raiders’ chest .

Now, they had a common idea, regardless of individual circumstances . The winner of this year’s PvP event would be Zibal, and the United States would rise to the top again .

Simultaneously, in South Korea . . .

[Overgeared King Grid declares his non-participation in the 4th Satisfy National Competition . ]

The breaking news from various media outlets caused a buzz among the people . The real-time search queries of the portal sites became filled with Grid, Shin Youngwoo, Overgeared King, and so on in less than one minute .

Ttang! Ttang! Ttang!

“Good . ”

Grid ignored the flood of requests for interviews and hammered an armor that closely resembled Valhalla of Infinite Affection . He was mentally and physically tired from working for a long time, but Grid forgot his fatigue once he confirmed the results .

[You have created a myth rated item!]

[* When myth rated items are produced, all stats will permanently rise by +20 and reputation throughout the continent will rise by +1,000 . ]

[Your reputation points has exceeded 200,000 . It is recommended that you use the Reputation Store . ]

[The blacksmith god Hexetia has praised you . ]

[God Hexetia has given you a benefit . ]

[Your dexterity has risen by 100 . ]

“Placing armor on this noble body . . . I don’t like it but I will try it on now . ” Noll couldn’t hide the joy of being with Grid for three days . His eyes lit up and he immediately wore the armor .

Grid nodded as he confirmed that Noll wearing the armor looked exactly like him . “It is like watching my childhood self . ”

Noll was like the star in a night sky while Grid was a pig’s poop . The gap in appearance between the two people was this huge . Grid had no conscience when he said Noll reminded him of his childhood . However, Noll was pleased instead of offended .
