I like them big, do you?

Chapter 126: A worldwide stream

After Reylin escorted his beloved to the Tathum City, he met the hero!

Maya waved at him from afar, "Reylin! Hello!"

She was pretty excited to meet him after some time. Her hand went down only after Reylin was a few meters before her!

Maya\'s eyes rose, and she met him with a smile, "I heard the news! The second phase just began! Good luck and beat them all!"

"I won\'t be able to lose with the hero\'s encouragement," Reylin smiled, then introduced his girlfriends.

Emilia and Layla had been staring at Maya with warm eyes.

For them, Ferocious Bear was as cute as everyone deemed her to be. That cute girl suddenly blushed as Reylin revealed his girlfriends out of sudden!

Franky, Maya hadn\'t noticed them at all.

All she saw was Reylin, and she was pretty excited to meet him in the game. He also told her beforehand about his plans, but that introduction was unexpected.

She flapped her eyelashes rapidly, then a scarlet blush lit up on her cheeks, "H-Hello... Nice to meet you... I am Maya..."

These two were particularly close to Reylin, and it didn\'t take much for Maya to imagine what kind of things they had done already.

It was a little too much for a seventeen years old girl!

"Take care of us, Maya!" Layla patted Maya\'s hair.

Next to her, Emilia was also all smiles, so it was but a matter of time before Maya became closer with them both.

Their transition to the hero\'s city should go smoothly.

Therefore, Reylin left them alone, "I am going to beat everyone now."

He smirked and entered the second phase of the dark matter kingdom event!

-

[Lioness: You are quite late. Let me explain to you what this second phase is about.]

After Reylin entered the rune, he appeared on his island.

However, his island was now a part of some unknown land. That land didn\'t look any different from what Reylin had seen before.

It was a forest with a mountain whose peak disappeared within the clouds.

[Lioness: If you take down someone else\'s island, you get a ticket. That ticket will bring your island closer to the peak. The player with the island closest to the peak wins and steps into phase three.]

His girlfriend summarized countless messages appearing before Reylin.

He thanked her, then said, "Let\'s find each other. This whole event is too suspicious."

"I will team up with you after I get rid of Yvonne," Lioness replied.

Those words weren\'t surprising to Reylin, and he understood that there was more to it than just his former infatuation with her.

Reylin smirked, "I would love to be with you and fight together against that woman... Alas, I can only tell you what I know about her."

It was more about Yvonne\'s personality that Reylin had seen through many times. He believed it would be handy for Aria, and complaining about bitch Yvonne also sounded fun.

Lioness chuckled on the other side, "She is just too suspicious. I\'ve faced all players except her, so she must be the queen... Just like the princess you\'ve talked with, it seems like the dark matter people gather forces from various sources. Anyway, I am off. It\'s time to have some girly talk."

Reylin closed his eyes and replied with a smirk, "Turn your stream on. I want to see how your skills have developed later."

"I will, sweetie," Lioness bid farewell with quite an old nickname.

Reylin turned toward his troops.

He already felt Flame Waifu wrapping her arms around his neck! All of them stood like soldiers, awaiting their commander\'s orders.

Reylin turned his eyes to the dark gnome, "Find the closest island and player, then pass them this."

Dark Gnome took a letter into his hands, then disappeared, leaving the flames behind.

Reylin then checked his equipment and items.

His troops had done checks countless times, but they followed their master wholeheartedly. If he checked his stuff, so would they!

At that time, a suspicious message appeared.

[You can\'t leave the rune unless you die or advance to phase 3.]

Another one followed.

[You can\'t log out.]

Reylin opened his system, and he found no log-out button.

His lips curved up, "Dark Matter... They started making serious moves, I see."

-

"Father. That man has his own mana," A man with a husky voice said while his eyes stared at a black-silver-haired man.

A king, his father, rested his head on his hand while the other caressed the throne\'s arm, "I found him intriguing... A player of such caliber, yet he still holds a little ambition. Regardless of his goal, his presence breaks the balance. How is Hans?"

"Hans should be ready soon... He needed time to calm down his greedy heart," A man who controlled the system replied.

His name was Zarmam.

Zarmam didn\'t chide his brother\'s heart.

Greedy Heart was similar to Reylin\'s Fire Heart, which operated on Wrath.

Both of them were similar in this regard, but the former had more experience.

The king chuckled, "Should we use players? They are already such good pets."

Zarmam sneered, "I think it\'s time to begin the show. Show them our game!"

"Oh? You can hijack their communication already?" The king asked while caressing his chin in bewilderment.

His son sneered and nodded, "Yes. I can stop all communications already. That\'s why, if there\'s a man who breaks the balance, we can show the whole world how monkeys these players are!"

The King stood up and spread his arms widely, "So be it! The Faynom World... and the world known as Earth shall see our game!"

Numerous screens appeared in the king\'s chamber.

Those screens were blank yet, "Out of five families, we have made a move first. Failure is not an option!"

His son nodded.

Zarmam made a few hand gestures, then his dark matter power swept through the whole phase 2 island.

Every player participating in the event received yet another scary piece of information!

Their communication was cut off, and they couldn\'t contact their beloved ones! They had literally no control over their system and essentially became trapped in the game world.

Many felt their hearts turning cold, but the answer lay at the mountain\'s peak.

Therefore, they didn\'t beat around the bush and stepped forth to search for players and kill more of their troops!

The King gently smiled, "Excellent." He then glanced at his blank screens.

His own dark matter swept through the room.

That was when the world noticed the gravity of the dark matter kingdom event.

"Dark Matter Kingdom Event, they say..." The King sneered, "It\'s our game... A game that has no name. For the name matters not as we hold the control..."

Countless screens assailed the world.

Be it the capitals, beginner cities, towns, villages, and even forests where many players casually leveled up, screens appeared for the majority of the residents and players.

Moreover, The King used his money to buy players to live stream the event.

No one refused his offers, and players streamed the participants\' battles from the beginning.

Now that the whole world teemed with those screens, those particular streams shot up in popularity, and everyone from Earth saw the event between the continents.

Popularity kept surging with each second!

"Let the whole world... see how foolish you are, players," The King guffawed.

The players, at least most of them, treated their world as a game. The system told them about rewards, and they developed naive thoughts of becoming the owners of powerful troops and power.

But who would willingly give them such power?

Who would develop such a system?!

They were naive, but the system in games never lied.

It was straightforward.

The same went for the event! Many believed the dark matter was the end game and that it was time to get it on their side! No one thought that those guys would have this much power, and if anyone had some doubts, they no longer held any as their systems became useless.

"Give them a quest! Kill Rey Flames Lin!" The King tapped the floor with his specter while shivering with anticipation!

He then dropped back to his throne.

-

[Kill Rey Flames Lin!]

[Reward: A guaranteed spot on the peak!]

That was an absurd reward.

It was like killing one player would end the event.

Alas, the players were too shaken by the lack of the system\'s buttons. All understood that they were trapped, but giving up on the quest also would waste the time they had spent here.

That was why they didn\'t dare to kill themselves but followed the system messages, becoming monkeys in the dark matter of people\'s eyes.

Reylin was oblivious to that message as his system was also under Zarmam\'s control.

His dark gnome had found a player and passed his letter.

Unfortunately, the new quest foiled Reylin\'s plans.

Besides, the person the dark gnome found was Camila.

She wanted to fight Reylin!
