The Count’s Youngest Son Is A Player Chapter 107

Episode 107

– Look at the video quality.

-Wow, who is the guy who appeared at the end? Seriously, he’s the most handsome actor I’ve ever seen. Charisma is no joke…

└My taste was targeted~ Does anyone know the work this actor appears in?

└Didn’t you check below the video? He’s not an actor, he’s a first guild master. Raoul de Ashton. He is the count’s youngest son.

└What was it, an NPC? Well, it doesn’t make sense for someone to have that kind of appearance.

└I’m so fucking jealous of NPCs or anything else. I was completely tired of the knights saluting from their horses. He looks young, but is he a guild master and a knight? Were you born with a diamond spoon in your mouth, not a gold spoon?

└If he has that good looks and great skills, he would really be the strongest person in the world.

└I predict that he will definitely appear as a main quest NPC later.

└I’m sorry, but hasn’t it already appeared? Are you the owner of this First Guild Academy?

└I don’t know everything, but I decided to become Raoul’s fan starting today. So, young people, please upload more videos of Raoul. ㅠㅠ

└Hmm. I want to be the white horse that Raoul is riding.

└A concept suddenly appears. Also, if you’re trying to talk about cats, get the hell away!

-The chest becomes magnificent. I want to join the knighthood. I want to join the knighthood. I want to join the knighthood.

└It’s really cool and it’s no joke. Seeing the knights fully armed makes my heart tingle.

└I just inquired with the First Guild, and they said it was a knighthood belonging to the guild. Therefore, I will enter the Academy and transfer to the Knights.

└Hey hey, don’t get excited. I was told that I was in charge of that position?

-Guys, now is not the time. There’s a new integrated bulletin board, and it’s going crazy right now! There’s a new notice there, and because of that, you’re now in a battle with foreign kids? We need fire support. Everyone, grab your keyboard and go to war!!

└What is it? What’s going on??

└What kind of battle are you having with kids who can’t even communicate?

└Connect Co., Ltd. is crazy. If you go to the integrated bulletin board, languages around the world are translated in real time. Everyone is going crazy now.

└Wow. Oba suffered internal injuries from the Japanese attack. We need support urgently.

└The junkies are on the offensive in terms of quantity! Join the war right now!

└The time has come to demonstrate my typing skills that I have been honing since I was young. Wait, comrades~ I’m coming!

The community that had been on fire with the new promotional video exploded with the emergence of an integrated bulletin board and new notices.

Immediately, the search term rankings of main portal sites around the world were completely covered by the fight with the First Guild.

Not only search terms but also articles one after another As it came up, it attracted people’s attention.

[Connect Co., Ltd. presents a new integrated bulletin board. Real-time translation of languages around the world?]

[Connect event ‘Controversy’. A huge reward to the winner!]

[The curtain opens on a new national competition. Connect ‘Controversy’ ignited the hearts of users.]

[A world war that took place on the Connect integrated bulletin board. Who will be the winner?]

[Who is ‘he’ who appeared in the fight promotion video?]

[The appearance of a new character that will melt women’s hearts. What is Raoul’s identity?]

‘It’s definitely not that the management team is incapable.’

Raoul looked through various articles and bulletin boards and smiled with satisfaction.

The promotional video was a collaboration between Raoul and the label, not Connect.

As he was active as a streamer before his reincarnation, he was also knowledgeable about filming and editing game videos.

‘But I never thought I would go up to the real sword.’

The video quality would have been good, but the promotion of the Connect management team would have also played a big role.

And, more than anything, Den Raoul had no disagreement that it was the incredible compensation offered by Connect that drew the current interest.

Raoul visited the official Connect bulletin board, which is currently burning hot.

The two notices stuck at the top were the culprits of this incident and the center of the keyboard battle that still continues.

[First Guild Academy Special Exam ‘Controversy’. Official Reward Information]

We would like to thank all players and prospective players who love Connect, and we will inform you of the official rewards related to this ‘Strife’.

*Personal Reward

– All participants in the round of 64 will receive a free 1-month Connect voucher.

*Special Compensation

– 1% of capsule priority drawing rights guaranteed to each country of origin of the round of 16 finalists for the next 3 months.

ex>If there are 3 people from country A, 90 capsules, or 3% of the 3,000 capsules, are allocated to country A.

-The country of origin of the final winner is guaranteed a 10% priority drawing ticket, and all players in that country are exempted from paying one month of usage fees.

The management team of Connect Co., Ltd. has prepared the above rewards with the dream of creating Connect together with players.

We wish the players good luck, and we hope that prospective players who are still waiting for their turn will enjoy the ‘Struggle’ until the end.

‘You used your head well. You’re thinking of giving tournament rewards not only to individuals, but to all players in that country. If you frame it as a national competition, not only prospective players but also the general public can’t help but be interested.’

Of course, it will cost a lot, but if you think of it as an investment, it won’t be that burdensome.

In fact, especially considering the astronomical profits that Connect Co., Ltd. will earn in the future.

And another notice attached right at the bottom was none other than the player leaderboard.

The rankings of all players in order of level are updated every hour, and rankings by country are also provided separately.

Keyboard warriors checked the level of the leaderboard and engaged in a fierce battle for the possibility of winning the player from their country.

On the other hand, players who had checked other people’s levels were frantically hunting and doing quests to make up for their lagging levels.

‘The atmosphere has really heated up. ‘I’m already looking forward to that day?’

Raoul chuckled and closed the augmented reality browser.

Just before the browser window closed, the player rankings window briefly passed by.

The sun finally dawned on the morning of February 1st.

Today, as the First Guild Academy entrance exam was being held, the world’s attention was focused on the Free City of Mira.

7 am.

Raoul woke up early and came in after looking around the guild branch where the entrance exam would be held.

Mira, where most of the players flocked, had a noisy atmosphere with people lining up at the guild entrance since dawn.

The entrance exam was scheduled to be held over a week from today.

A total of 8 preliminaries from Group A to Group H will be held from the 1st to the 3rd day, and at the same time, practical and interview tests for non-combat positions will be held.

Starting on the 4th day, the final tournament for 64 people who passed the preliminary round will be held over a four-day schedule, and the exam will conclude with the semifinals and finals on the last day.

Of course, the general selection test for applicants for combat positions lasted for a week, and the final successful candidate was decided on the last day of the competition.

‘Even though they said they would filter them out, the numbers are still huge.’

The total number of players who applied to the academy was about 6,500. Since the number of capsules distributed so far was 8,000, it is safe to say that almost all those who achieved level 10 applied.

Among them, all but 2,000 were boldly eliminated from the document review process.

The criteria was simple.

Level and access time.

Among players of the same level, those with relatively low levels and connection times were eliminated.

Naturally, many people protested.

“What should I do when I’m at work? “Are you saying you’re only going to hire unemployed people?”

“No matter what, my level is high, so you’re going to throw me down and drop me?”

Protests continued on the bulletin board and Connect website, and some people came to the guild to complain.

But Raoul was adamant.

Talent, characteristics, and personality are important, but more important than that is whether you can consistently connect with passion.

‘rectal? It’s important. But it has nothing to do with us, does it?’

When hiring employees for a company, isn’t it possible to hire someone who already has a job?

To them, this was just a game, but to Raoul, it was reality.

The point was that we needed players who logged in consistently and passionately, even if they were a little lacking, rather than players who were highly talented but logged in sporadically.

And of course, level growth expectations are proportional to access time. Unless there are special cases, the growth of players who stay connected for a long time is bound to be rapid.

Anyway, 2,000 test takers were selected, and 1,600 people, excluding non-combat occupations and 400 low-level people, participated in the ‘combat’.

After a while, the central square inside the guild.

Raoul, who was seated in the VIP table on a neat podium prepared in advance, greeted the guests who had come to visit us warmly.

The first thing I found was Sage Gray. I received a lot of help from him while preparing for this exam.

The testing site where the preliminaries were to be held was a test site of unprecedented scale, filled with various magic circles as well as fantasy magic circles.

Although it cost a lot of mana stones and money, it was built meticulously with the intention of using it for training in the future.

I was introduced to the relevant wizards through Gray, and in the end, Gray even took charge of supervision, so the testing site was completed in an excellent state.

“Thank you again for your help, Professor.”

“Raul is asking me to help you, of course. Personally, I couldn’t tell you how happy I was when Raoul suggested a good plan while I was wondering how to help strangers grow. They will definitely be a great help in restoring stability to the continent. “I hope Raoul guides them well.”

After exchanging well-wishes and saying hello to the presidents of each association next to each other in turn, the last place we headed to was the place where the mayors of the Free City gathered.

16 mayors of 16 free cities.

They were all dressed in Western clothes and talking with smiling faces. However, at first glance, it was divided into two categories.

On one side, there are people chatting happily with really bright smiles. These were the mayors of the free cities of the Kingdom of Ruben, including Mira.

And the rest of the mayors looked like they were smiling, but in reality, their eyes looked unusual, as if they were very annoyed.

Actually, it was well worth it.

These are people who run the Free City together and share difficult times. One side is enjoying the benefits thanks to the preparations made in advance, while the other’s situation has not improved significantly yet.

‘Well, it’s a blessing to be self-employed.’

They were the ones who rejected Raoul in the first place.

Unlike the mayors of the Leuven Kingdom, who willingly gave up land and accepted partnerships when they were offered an investment, they simply urged them to invest money at a low interest rate.

They looked down on Raoul because he was young and a noble from a foreign country.

Naturally, such conditions could not be accepted, so in the end, Raoul’s investment amount had no choice but to be concentrated in the Free City of the Kingdom of Leuven.

As you can see, the results were right in front of my eyes.

“Mayors. “Thank you so much for coming this far.”

“This is you, Viscount Raoul. “Congratulations on the establishment of the academy.”

Raoul bowed first and the mayors also greeted him with smiles.

Everyone is a lazy snake, so it won’t show on the outside, but it will make you very upset.

But no matter what the past was, there was no need to blush since we would often have to cooperate in the future.

After greeting the VIPs, all the players had finished entering.

Now First Guild Academy. It is time to announce the beginning.
