Chapter 138
“Your representative.”
[hello! Choco Pie Joe! I'm sorry to call you like this in the evening, but... are you available right now?]
It's almost 7:00 in the evening now. It seems that the time off work has already passed, but Jae-young answered the voice of CEO Seo-wook Jo, who seemed to be still working because of something important.
“I can talk, but what are you doing?”
[Ah..... that's not it..... All the videos you sent me have been uploaded, but there are a lot of conflicting stories in the comments section. So far, I've been consistent with no response, but I still have to explain to some extent, so I called.]
“What are you talking about?”
Jaeyoung doesn't quite understand what he's talking about. When I asked again with a tilt of my head, CEO Jo Seo-wook muttered as if it was difficult to explain in words.
[That's... It's probably easier to talk about by going directly to the channel.]
At that, Jaeyoung turned on her computer and connected to Arpendia. And he made an absurd expression when he saw the comments filling up his channel.
- Clarify!
- Clarify!
- Clarify!
.

“What is this?”
Comments asking for clarification that filled the comment window endlessly. Surprisingly, it was not one person who maliciously spread the paper, but several people gathered in one mind and expressed their dissatisfaction by leaving the same comments.
[Haa..... That's it.....]
CEO Seowook Cho started talking with a deep sigh. According to him, this started about a month ago when the last video was uploaded.
[Come on.... The hammer is out, you bastards.]
A video revealing the power-hungry that GM's upper management group used to take control of trade with the Dwarves. Dex appeared in the video where various videos including those sent by Apple and Lemon were intertwined. His appearance drew more people's eyes and attention than usual, and at the same time, he attracted the attention of those who should never touch him.
- Dex? Dex was here...?
-Haa..... Our Dex Jjaung. The hammer is really big and huge.
- I want to see one hit over there. How much damage will it take?
-Anyone going to die from being hit by a dex hammer? Recruiting party members.
Those who dirty the comment window by saying things that make you chill just by looking at them. When it comes to things related to Dex, they are terribly obsessed with bizarre eccentricities that are digging everywhere and nowhere.
‘What color are Dex's panties?' Guild members of the guild.
They came to Jaeyoung's channel and started lying down.
- What kind of relationship does the owner here have with Dex, so he posted this video?
- Eye plus...? Could it be that Dex didn't sign a contract with you?
-What do you mean, does anyone know Dex-chan's identity?
-Hahaha..... Then can you go and ask for XXXX and XXXX?
A channel that started running all sorts of filthy and creepy comments that wouldn't be strange even if a complaint was lodged in the police station. The employees of iPlus, which manages Jaeyoung's channel, tried to delete their comments as much as possible, but that actually had the opposite effect of irritating them.
-what? Why did you delete my comment?
- Are you sure you're censoring comments now? Aren't you aware of freedom of expression?
-Are you going to try it with us now? Kkeuk.
And from then on, the comment war between iPlus and Deckfanmu started. However, the winner was, surprisingly, Deck Fan Mu.
- Clarify!
- Clarify!
- Clarify!

I don't know what you're asking me to explain, but anyway, comments running in real time asking me to explain. The employees of iPlus responded by deleting the comments one by one and blocking the user, but they were not able to suppress it to that extent.
“So... are you saying you’ve been deleting and blocking comments all day?”
Even now, every time I refresh, hundreds of comments asking for clarification seem to pour in. Considering that all the users who commented were different, it was a serious situation to know that this was not turning auto, but that hundreds of people were lying down with protest comments even at this moment.
[Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa's I really don't know what to say... I haven't been able to do anything for 2 weeks now, and all the staff are working on deleting comments and blocking users, but the situation is getting worse instead of calming down. ]
The worst situation is that if you delete hundreds or thousands of comments, thousands or tens of thousands of new comments will appear in that time. Of course, it wasn't entirely their fault, but Jaeyoung let out a deep sigh and said at the fact that he provoked dangerous beings that he shouldn't have dared to touch.
“Ha..... No, even if you touch them, why are you touching these people? What a scary place this is.”
When you look at each and every one of them, who are everywhere and nowhere, they are ordinary people who are ordinary and not at all unusual, but strangely, beings who are obsessed with things related to Dex, giving goosebumps just by looking at them, and engage in bizarre eccentricities. CEO Jo Seo-wook couldn’t say anything at Jae-young’s reprimanded sigh.
[I'm really sorry. We only heard about it, but we didn't know that people here were so scary..... This is entirely the company's fault. I, the CEO, will apologize once again.]
“.....”
Jae-young, who has stepped forward like that and is apologizing by calling himself and apologizing, but Jae-young, who is older, can't bear to say anything regretful. He said while holding his throbbing head after seeing the comments of Deck Fan Mu pouring in real time even now.
“For now... I understand the situation. Are you calling to tell me about this?”
[yes. That's the same.... If you don't mind being rude, I have something to ask you.]
“A favor?”
Jae-Young, puzzled by CEO Seo-Wook Cho's request, asks. CEO Jo Seo-wook asked him in a very cautious tone.
[yes. Well... I decided that it would be easier to calm the situation if I uploaded a video featuring a person named Dex..... Since Choco Piejoa is close with Dex, please tell me the current situation and ask us to take a video together. Can I ask for your cooperation...?]
“.....”
Dex appearing in the video uploaded to expose the corruption of GM before. Jae-young, who had been arguing about the circumstances of filming the video, saying that it was a personal acquaintance, was confused at CEO Seo-wook Cho's request.
‘What about this...?'
[Ho, if you're having a hard time, can we ask you to give us a call at least once? I would like to talk to you directly and ask you.]
CEO Jo Seo-wook is trying to somehow take responsibility for this situation. Jaeyoung let out a deep sigh at his heartbreaking and earnest request.
“That is me.”
[Yes...?]
As if time stopped at those words, I couldn't hear a word from the receiver. However, Jae-young, who noticed that the phone was not disconnected because he could hear CEO Seo-wook Cho's strangely rough breathing, continued.
“At that time, I didn’t want to reveal it, so I didn’t talk about it, but Choco Piejoa is a character disguised as an item, and my real character nickname is Dex.”
Dex.
Korea... no, the nickname that shook many games in the past as the world's strongest player. Realizing that the existence of the deck fan dance was the person who was talking to him right now, CEO Jo Seo-wook's scream-like question rang through the receiver.
[Is that really?!]
His question burst out with a bang. Being caught off guard, Jaeyoung, who was hit by a sonic attack, grabbed his deaf ears and said with a frown.
“Don't get excited. First of all, let’s talk about this slowly after properly organizing the current situation.”
[yes....? Ah yes! I see!]
CEO Seo-wook Cho, who seemed to want to ask something, returned to the original subject at Jae-young's words. Jaeyoung listened to him about what had happened so far and began to organize the situation in detail.
“You mean deck fan clubs have been lying on the comment section for almost two weeks now, causing a fuss? What relationship did this video have with Dex?”
[That's right. Choco Piejoa... No, Dex-nim forbids any exposure of personal information, so we received a lot of inquiries by phone, even if it wasn't a comment, but we haven't responded in any way until now.] Sometimes in the
game Dex, who appeared but never made a public appearance. That's why his appearance was an element that could stimulate many users of deck fan dance.
‘Because these guys' firepower is also firepower.... This is how it turned out.....'
Everything they do or think is scary enough to give goosebumps. As you can tell just by looking at the name of the guild, they are curious about the color of their underwear and proud of the name of the guild. Until now, Jae-young had avoided meeting them face-to-face. However, he realized that he had to face them with dignity, not back down.
“Hey, Mr. Representative.”
[Yes.]
“First of all... I keep the fact that I am Dex a secret from the other employees. Only the CEO knows about this fact, and tell the other employees that it is just a close relationship with me.”
[Ah yes! I see.]
“And... I'll make a video to calm down this situation myself and upload it.”
[yes? Are you uploading it yourself?]
CEO Cho Seo-wook asked back as if wondering about that statement. At his words, Jaeyoung muttered to himself with strange eyes shining.
“yes. I had something I wanted to say to these guys before.”
* * *
“I’m back.”
“Yes, rice is on the table. Eat dinner before the computer.”
“yes.”
College student Mingyu returns from school. He munched on the rice prepared by his mother and casually connected to Arpandia on his cell phone.
“uh....?”
And one video that appears right at the top. Seeing this, Mingyu's eyes widened and he even dropped the spoon he was eating.
“Dex brother?”
The destroyer's daily life channel that he lay down and burned hard.
In the newly uploaded video there, Dex is talking to him with an annoyed face.
[Talking to the fucking deck fans who keep making a fuss here on the channel.]
“It's the real Dex!”
Dex shown above the character. Watching it, Mingyu felt an indescribable thrill and focused on the video while holding the phone with both hands, leaving behind the meal he had been eating as if he would not miss a single second. Dex frowned as he mentioned all of the deck fans, including Mingyu. He declared to them with genuine contempt and disgust in his eyes.
[I'm filming a video to talk only about the part where you lie down to explain. First of all, I know Choco Pie Joa and I personally, and we talked about uploading my videos here and there from now on. No one knows my personal information on Iplus, so please don't call them and ask about me. It's a crime and it's stalking, so if you don't want to get sued in real life, please stop doing weird things. If you really twist it, the game will be abandoned.]
“Heeik...! Are you giving up the game?”
The thing that deck fan clubs feared the most from long ago. It was Dex quitting the game they were enjoying. And thanks to the many experiences he had in various games, Jaeyoung knew very well what they feared most.
[So, behave well in the future. Because if you keep making me disrespectful, I might just quit the game altogether.]
After threatening (?) not threatening to quit Arcadia, he cut off the video with his last words.
[And my panties are black, you fucking perverts. Are you okay?]
