After a simple meal, I decided to explore YouTube videos related to Deoen to gather some information.
The most common content, of course, was battles.
Among them, I watched a video with a decent subscriber count of 300,000.
With flashy editing and sound effects, two individuals were fiercely clashing their weapons.
When it comes to weapons, the most basic ones are the sword and dagger.
The two weapons crossed each other, exchanging attacks while a lively background music reached its peak.
With a ‘Pachin—!’ the man wielding the sword swung it, creating a blue arc that cut into the body of the man holding the dagger.
The opponent fell lifelessly, transforming into blue particles.
The sword-wielding man grinned and the screen changed to one that allowed shifting to the next video with animation.
It was a short video, about 3 to 4 minutes long.
I thought it was over, but as I scrolled down, I found around 700 comments.
─ Wow… he’s really good
└ 22 replies
─ So he really is a diamond level, huh? LOL
└ 5 replies
─ I’m a fan. Always cheering for you.
└ 1 reply
─ I watch every time and you’re really skilled ;; Diamond level seems to be on another level
─ That was insane
─ The timing of the ‘Counter Slash’ at the end was crazy
The comments were filled with praise.
“…I didn’t think it was that impressive.”
Wasn’t it a little too ordinary?
The patterns were too monotonous.
Actually, the mage I encountered during my ranking matches looked better than this guy.
Is this really diamond level?
“I’m a golden rank, though?”
I wondered if I got a low rank just because it was placement, but I understood diamond should be around the top 1% level.
But for the top 1% to be at this level…
Something felt off, so I clicked to reply to the very first comment.
─ Wow… he’s really good
└ I agree, seems like his skills keep increasing.
└ Isn’t he using combat support? Skills increasing doesn’t mean much, it’s the item performance rising.
└ ? Who doesn’t use combat support?
└ Thanks for being a troll.
└ Don’t talk too harshly, unless the person above is a pro or challenger tier ranker, almost everyone uses combat support.
└ Honestly, it’s not fair to criticize someone for using combat support LOL Everyone uses it.
└ If you’re not going pro, it’s fine.
└ What about Lily, she’s just a newbie?
“…Why am I suddenly mentioned?”
Why is my story popping up here?
└ Lily is a side character, right?
└ No, Lily is a newbie LOL It’s quite obvious from watching the broadcasts.
└ This is just full of trolls.
└ Lily isn’t a side character; she’s a cheat! You can’t compare that here!
“You can’t just throw this into the mix.”
“What are you talking about?”
Me, a nuke?
I’ve met plenty of nuke-like guys in my life, but this is the first time someone said I was one.
If you saw that upper celestial who wiped out thousands of demon beasts with a mere hand gesture, or that upper demon who casually resurrected those beasts as undead, you’d realize my skills are just cute little tricks.
Honestly, I’m more like a victim squatting among those monsters.
Ah, it brings back memories.
I still remember how tough it was dealing with that demon race that just tossed aside the thousands of rescued beasts like trash.
And of all places, they headed towards a crowded city.
I questioned why I had to keep doing charitable work even after stepping down as a saintess, but well, that’s just how Lily is; there’s no changing her.
After putting in so much effort to hold them off, I wanted to strangle the lord who was whining about the broken walls.
Of course, I wasn’t a saintess at that time, so I just shut my mouth and buried my face into the table, which calmed me down.
“Hmm…”
Creeeak… The chair supporting my back moves against my will.
I place my hands on the keyboard.
Lily_
Ta-gak.
“Hah.”
Just typing two letters, and suddenly tons of videos about me start pouring out.
Earlier, it was just one of the recommended videos, but now that I look, most of the recent battles are my videos.
From my fight with Yena to battles with the mage, the banded, Kroctus, the goblin king, and others.
They used all the videos related to me.
Among them, the most eye-catching and popular video.
[“We Found a Noob Who Doesn’t Use Battle Assistance?!”]
NewTube Yena / 15.7 million views. 3 days ago.
With an elegantly sized text overlay, there’s a picture of me tilting my head.
It’s only been three days, and the views are off the charts.
Isn’t South Korea’s population over 50 million now?
I don’t know the exact numbers, but getting this many views just from South Korea seems a bit tough.
As I click the video, there’s a preview with Yena looking all sweaty and me, clutching a bag of gold coins, trying to assess the situation.
After about three seconds, the screen flips with sound effects, and a chibi version of Yena pops up, shouting “E-Youtube!” while scattering effects as the video begins.
The video was fun.
Even if it wasn’t really about me or Yena, it seemed like it was edited by someone with pretty good editing skills, arranging sound effects and scenes without a dull moment.
‘Or maybe it’s just me having lived in the medieval times.’
Honestly, I think I’d find any modern video entertaining.
Looking through the comments, there were a whopping 50,000 of them, and I occasionally saw English or other languages.
Celestials can understand all languages.
From a quick glance, most of them said things like “pretty,” “well done,” “good,” and such.
There were occasionally a few sexual comments, but I just ignored them.
It’s not even mine, it’s Yena’s, so asking to delete them because I’m uncomfortable seems a bit much.
No need to deal with every single one.
“Why are there so many conspiracy theories?”
When I see comments that have 200 or 300 replies, people are passionately debating.
Among them, there were clearly deleted comments that crossed the line.
Most pointed to behaviors like movements, destructive power, and instant reactions that went beyond the usual ‘common sense.’
‘Common sense.’
Does… common sense even exist?
The fact that I’ve been reincarnated into a human body of the Celestial type after wandering for 30 years and then got sent back is already beyond common sense!
I chuckled and smiled for a moment.
The chair tilted back even more.

Living as a Saintess was not as smooth as I’d expected.
Healer and mercenary, mercenary and guardian of humans, guardian and support for someone.
Though I was just a small Saintess in a tiny village, because humans are inherently weak but numerous, I had to shoulder many.
Naturally, my status rose, and Lily Elbrite, who began her serious activities at 15, became famous in just a year.
And of course, jealousy followed.
A power too strong for the title of ‘Saintess.’
A dazzlingly beautiful appearance and voice that nobody could compare to.
Able to heal even those with deep wounds or terminally ill patients waiting for death, with holy compassion that could embrace everyone.
I didn’t really act with that in mind, but Lily’s nature is my nature.
I had no choice but to behave that way, whether I liked it or not.
Of course, I didn’t feel that much aversion to it.
It’s just a bit annoying, and I dislike those who think kindness is a right.
Celestial-type humans are weak and are merely a byproduct at the ‘type’ level.
But compared to ordinary humans, they seem to be closer to ‘perfection.’
It’s practically perfect.
Perfection attracts envy from others.
“Hmm.”
Screeeech…
Why do they dislike me so much?
I clearly helped them.
“That’s too much, Jin…?!”
Boom!
“Ugh!”
The chair fell over.
My back hurts…

[The God of the Day, Lily has descended! The God of the Day, Lily has descended! The God of the Day, Lily has descended! The God of the Day, Lily has descended! The God of the Day, Lily has descended! The God of the Day, Lily has descended! The God of the Day, Lily has descended! The God of the Day, Lily has descended!]
[Is the broadcast on?]
[Can we get some clarification?]
[LMAO, Yas ON]
[I thought it wouldn’t trigger since tomorrow’s the Newdl Park but look at this ㅋㅋㅋ]
[Lilha~]
[What are you doing today? What are you doing today? What are you doing today? What are you doing today? What are you doing today? What are you doing today? What are you doing today? What are you doing today? What are you doing today? What are you doing today? What are you doing today?]
[Please turn on donations]
Swish.
The spear tip cuts off the Sagwi’s head.
Following that, two more Sagwi from the back and side also lose their lives.
“Let’s hunt. I need to clear the advancement quest.”
There are about 500 monsters left.
I’m wondering if the ones merged from the Goblin King count in that number, but it seems like I’ve caught more than I expected.
I think I can finish it all if I grind for just 2-3 hours today.
[Lily’s advancement quest is particularly painful]
[True lol]
[3000 monsters really crossed the line; which game company makes new players hunt 3000? lol]
[Lily is struggling, sob sob…]
[Please open donations]
[So is it a cheat or not?]
[What’s the relationship with Yena?]
[Are you thinking of joining a Guild?]
[Please open donations, Lilyyyy…]
As I retrieve the spear, I look back at the camera.
There are always so many questions.
“Joining a Guild is later; I’m just a co-broadcaster with Miss Yena. I’ll only take donations for a bit later.”
[What about cheats?]
Swish.
“And. I don’t use cheats. I really hate those things.”
I say it over and over, but I absolutely detest the Celestial and Demon races.
