The God's Games

Master PungPong picked a rather strange one to tell Hanjun: "I also heard from the servants that they haven't seen the Duke for three or four days. They say he's been staying in his room the whole time, and no one knows what he's doing. But the people in House Fortemps don't seem worried about the Duke's safety, which I find a bit odd."

Hanjun nodded his head and looked thoughtful, pondering what might be going on.

Of course, in the end, he gave out plenty of rewards to the few people in front of him and encouraged them to continue gathering information for him.

After the players finished speaking, it was their turn to ask questions.

"Hanjun, we didn't see you when we came back. Where did you go?"

The Royal City of Orinthia is the capital city of the Kingdom of Orinthia, and Hanjun just went out alone without any concern for his own safety.

There were so many members of the Order of the Shattering Light who wanted to assassinate him—was he not afraid at all?

If they asked him directly, Hanjun would definitely say he wasn't afraid.

Even if the God of Darkness himself came, he might not lose, let alone just a bunch of humans.

Unfortunately, the players treated him like a weak NPC with no combat skills.

They kept a close eye on him and never asked such things directly, so Hanjun could only continue to play the role of the gentle and fragile Holy Son in their minds.

Hanjun replied, "I went to the old church in this city."

When he said that, the players fell silent, knowing that, unsurprisingly, the church in the Royal City of Orinthia had likely been destroyed.

To people, useful things are highly valued, while useless things are forgotten—clearly, this was also the case with the Church of Light.

They didn't know how to comfort Hanjun.

In truth, they didn't really believe in the gods themselves.

But since they were now the heroes summoned by the Church of Light, they represented it to some extent.

Hanjun looked at their expressions and laughed, "Why are you all looking like that?"

"When I went there, I saw workers repairing the church. I'm sure it won't be long before the church in the Royal City of Orinthia is restored, and we don't even have to do it ourselves. Isn't that good?"

His words gave away a lot of information, and the players quickly understood.

It seemed that the king still wanted something from the Church of Light; otherwise, he wouldn't have arranged for workers to fix it.

Hanjun sighed, "What a pity. There used to be a large piece of land behind the church, but now it's been turned into someone's private garden. The church in the Royal City of Orinthia is still not quite up to standard."

The players immediately began to think about whether Hanjun's words hinted at a new quest.

Indeed, with the Church of Light having such a small territory in the Royal City of Orinthia, it felt like it wasn't given much importance.

Maybe they could investigate which family had taken over the land that originally belonged to the Church of Light.

Master PungPong and his team thought for a long time.

It wasn't until Hanjun said he was going back to his room to rest that they realized they had forgotten something.

...What was it?

Finally, Flower Deer reminded them, "Did you forget what you asked Hanjun at the beginning?"

Oh, right!

They had wanted to ask why Hanjun went out alone!

They hadn't expected that just a few words from Hanjun would divert all their attention.

They hadn't even had a chance to tell him to be more careful in the future.

It seemed that Hanjun wasn't as gentle as he looked.

Sometimes he was so sly that the players didn't know how to handle him.

[ Hanjun is just so cute! Did you all not notice that? ]

[ His looks are already amazing. Sure, he's a bit young, but I'm willing to wait for him to grow up! ]

[ I didn't realize it before, but I thought I was the only one who liked Hanjun. It turns out many others have noticed how great this NPC is! ]

[ What? Hanjun is the most popular NPC on the forum right now. Did you all vote for my hubby? Hurry up and do it! ]

In the blink of an eye, discussions about Hanjun filled Master PungPong's live streaming chat.

Since they had completed enough quests today, Master PungPong logged off and, following his viewers' suggestions, browsed the forum.

After the forum introduced a new voting feature, the users immediately started a poll for the most popular character.

Cha Dan-pung looked at the results.

Hanjun, with his great looks and high frequency of appearances, was in first place.

The next two spots were held by the God of Light and the God of Darkness.

He couldn't help but almost spit out his drink when he saw the name of the God of Darkness.

"How did the God of Darkness even get on the list?"

[ Because the God of Darkness in the trailer is super handsome! ]

[ Even though there was just one shot, and the God of Darkness hasn't appeared yet, he's already become the most anticipated NPC based on that one look. ]

[The same goes for the God of Light, but their styles are completely different. ]

Master PungPong wiped his mouth.

Well, it seemed everyone had their own reasons.

In the game, if you look good, many people will follow their hearts (or looks).

Not to mention handsome villains, who might be even more charming than the protagonist.

That's probably why the God of Darkness was so popular.

At that moment, the sleeping God of Darkness sneezed, he suddenly sensing a faint trace of faith energy coming from a distant planet.

He looked at the scattered stars in confusion and waved his hand to disperse them.

"What strange things..."

...

The sky was blue and clear.
