Chapter 662. For You Alone (2) #PART 1
Nam Taemin awkwardly licked his lips.
“Hyung, is this really okay?”
“Why?”
“I don’t know, I just feel like I might be overthinking it.”
Since Raymon Sean returned to AAU, His brother had not let his attention rest on him. After losing something precious to Raymon Sean, it was hard to look at him favorably, no matter what actions he took.
But Nam Taemin set his emotions aside and tried to think back.
“…Since the Cataclysm, hasn’t there been anything like this?”
After the Cataclysm,
if you were to summarize the state of the Arcana continent and reality, you could say they were crushed by the Demon World every day. Whether in Arcana or reality, cities were destroyed on a daily basis, and countless lives were lost.
In simpler terms, it meant that “negative emotions” never ceased.
But what about now?
It was so peaceful that it made him want to yawn involuntarily.
“This feels so peaceful, it’s almost like it’s real peace.”
Gently.
At his younger brother’s words, Nam Cheolmin took off his glasses and closed his eyes.
Instead of looking at the capital of the Empire, Antonium,
he tried to feel the atmosphere coming from Antonium.
Amidst the noisy sounds, a conversation could be heard.
“Thanks for your hard work today, adventurers!”
“It’s nothing. We’re just doing this because we want to.”
“Thanks to the last request, the path to the farm has been made safer. We’re truly grateful. Please take care of us from now on, adventurers!”
“Ah, please, don’t say that, you’ll make us feel bad.”
Taemin was right.
“Yeah. It really does have that feeling from back then.”
Back when Arcana was just a game,
the atmosphere of those days was alive in Antonium.
Romance and adventure were alive.
It was that distinctive atmosphere from the Arcana Continent Chronicles.
Nam Cheolmin pushed up his glasses and continued.
“Well, I guess it’s thanks to the operator returning.”
“…Hyung, don’t say something like that, even if it’s a joke.”
“Haha, wasn’t it funny?”
…Though, it wasn’t entirely just a joke.
Raymon Sean.
Since the Cataclysm, he hadn’t abandoned his duties. He’d been tormenting the Arcana continent and reality through the official website and regular updates, right?
But.
‘After his return, the direction has changed.’
The changes that occurred after Raymon Sean’s return to AAU could almost be seen as another Cataclysm.
If the regular updates until then had been aimed at making the Arcana continent and reality chaotic, the regular update details that began last week were…
“By the way, I’m nervous, hyung. It’s like I’m supposed to follow in Kearn’s footsteps, so I can’t treat this like a simple quest…! Should I go through the class change ceremony again? Maybe to regain my original spirit? What do you think?”
Looking at Taemin, who had been appointed as the class promotion director for the Barbarian, it was obvious.
Nam Cheolmin smiled slyly at his younger brother’s dramatics.
“Kearn would have scolded you for talking nonsense.”
“Kearn? To me? Why?”
“You’re already a legendary Barbarian, Taemin.”
“…!”
“You might have even achieved greater feats than Kearn. You know this better than anyone, right? Barbarians are the type who don’t know humility. Have a bit more confidence. Kearn would want that too.”
That’s right.
It wasn’t just Taemin. The current regular updates were full of content that could bring peace to the Arcana continent and reality in various ways.
Nam Cheolmin’s eyes narrowed for a moment.
‘…In some ways, it feels almost unsettling.’
Is this something that could have been accomplished solely by Raymon Sean’s will?
‘If he had actually wanted this from the start…’
Raymon Sean,
you wouldn’t have poured out updates like this.
So, the story becomes simple.
If Raymon Sean truly has undergone redemption, then it’s possible.
Suddenly, a news item popped into Nam Cheolmin’s mind.
‘…Now that I think about it, didn’t Manager Park say something like that?’
He had told the Supreme Commander about Raymon Sean’s return to AAU.
He didn’t know what happened afterward, but he could at least guess.
Nam Cheolmin muttered quietly.
“Has Raymon Sean been influenced by pride too?”
“Pride? What did you just say, hyung?”
“Huh? Oh, nothing.”
Maybe he was thinking too optimistically.
Nam Cheolmin shook his head.
Shaking his head helped him clear his thoughts.
“Anyway, we should make sure to seize this opportunity.”
Whether this peace was Raymon Sean’s will or the Supreme Commander’s will achieved through Raymon Sean, it was definitely an opportunity. An opportunity for not only the players but also for the Arcana continent and reality to develop further.
Nam Cheolmin looked toward the gates of Antonium.
“The fastest guilds have already started to move. We can’t just sit still! Well, Taemin, you’ll have to stay in Antonium for a while because of the class promotion quest…”
“What? Hyung, I’m Nam Taemin! You can’t do the guild raid without me…!”
“I know. But in our Great Alliance, we have Hisagi and Leonie, right?”
“What? What do you mean?! How can you say that to me?!”
