In an instant, Roms loses his spear and right arm and collapses.
I did it, but it’s not something I did.
‘Well, I guess I managed to pull it off.’
The roar of the spear is a technique of the Celestial Race.
It’s a technique that ordinary races could never attempt or succeed in, and many once tried to use the techniques of the Celestial Race only to be met with bloodshed.
The technique of the Celestial Race can not only destroy the body but also, if it worsens, even crush the soul.
Even the Dragon Race and Ancient Beasts, who were known as powerhouses, couldn’t touch their techniques.
But now, aside from the Celestials and Demons, there are uniquely those who can still use it; me and the ‘Users’ who inherit the blood of the Celestials.
Those whose bodies and souls are protected by the System.
No matter how severe the damage, their souls remain protected.
Even if they die, they resurrect in normal condition.
I took this characteristic and taught the roar of the spear to Yena and the viewers.
It’s a technique that should never be used in the past, but for Users who can’t truly die, it’s worth the use.
“Guahhhh!!!”
But the residents here are different.
It’s true they are overwhelmingly stronger than humans of the past, but there are no protections from the System, nor infinite resurrection.
Once they die, that’s it.
Roms tried to mimic the roar of the spear while looking at me, but hopelessly couldn’t, so he completed the technique in his own way.
A technique that twists the flow of mana in various places as the spear and body become one to create a storm.
He mimicked it fairly well, but in twisting the mana excessively, the arrangement of mana that makes up his body got distorted.
Since he became one with the spear, he probably didn’t notice, but Roms’ body condition was already critical.
If the fusion broke or he used the technique just one more time, he would have completely collapsed.
“W-What… have you done…”
“That’s unfortunate. If you had the qualifications, it would have been enough.”
It’s the price he pays for attempting a technique that an ordinary human body cannot handle.
Roms loses consciousness and falls over.
Right now, it’s not Lily who can heal him, but at least the bleeding has stopped, so he won’t die.
‘I should secretly attach an arm for him later.’
He bled for desiring a technique he couldn’t achieve, but his talent was exceptional.
It would be a waste to put down the spear just like this.
“The Commander of Knights…”
“Commander…”
“Chief!”
“What…”
Knights, with trembling eyes, stare at this way while clutching their wounds.
I looked toward someone breaking away from them.
The User Mashimasita, who has been fleeing since Roms collapsed.
I leaped toward him, penetrating his heart in one swift motion.
“Ugh!”
“Where do you think you’re running?”
“You crazy girl…”
[Quest completed.]
Gotcha.

[Raider Information as of October 27th]
Writer: Detection Dog
(A table showing the Raider rankings)
This is the latest news on Raider rankings as of October 27th.
First of all, the one to watch out for is, of course, the top-ranked Raider, ‘Grim Reaper’.
After toppling the ‘Judis’ Kingdom and taking the throne, this Raider has become the first to reach Count-level territory, right after Lily.
It’s not just within the Raider Guild rankings; he’s grown large enough to be in the top 10 overall guild rankings.
There’s no way the large guilds that despise Raiders will just stand by, so it seems like they might gang up on him, but with the Great Cataclysm looming, they probably won’t attack immediately.
Second is ‘Jeokpeim’, ranked 3rd among Raiders.
Recently, he’s one of the fastest-growing Raiders, next to the Grim Reaper, with a high likelihood of becoming a kingdom-level force.
However, the kingdom where Jeokpeim mainly operates is near large guilds, so whether his quests will succeed is uncertain.
The large guilds are bound to support the kingdom to prevent a Grim Reaper situation.
Lastly, I debated whether to include this, but things have gotten so chaotic that I just posted it anyway.
(A picture of a woman in black assassin attire)
A newly rising powerhouse, ‘Rapina’.
She just made her appearance as a rogue ranker today, smashing five of the Banded Guilds in the Abys Kingdom and establishing a guild called ‘Crazy Girl’.
Her ranking is still a bit low since she just started, but… today, her growth rate was actually higher than the two I mentioned earlier.
If she keeps up this momentum, she seems likely to crack the top 10 without any issue.
+ And there’s talk of someone named Lily, but in my opinion, it’s not her. Their speech may sound similar, but their actions are completely different.

─ Info, thanks
─ Oh
─ Wow, the Grim Reaper is really making the large guilds unable to do anything, right?
└ The Grim Reaper
└ Didn’t that Grim Reaper get robbed by Lily?
└ Natural disasters are a different story
└ LOL
└ The Grim Reaper is amazing. How does he even think about taking over a kingdom?
└ Seriously, hating on Raiders is totally disgusting.
└Seriously, why are there so many rice-eating losers?
└Yeah, right?
└Are you insulting our Grim Reaper?!
└Raiders are users too; what discrimination is this? LOL
─Crazy girl, the Guild name is super funny!
└And that crazy girl originally had a guild, but she got beaten and robbed! Haha!
└Really?
└She’s really a crazy girl!
└I heard she’s called Lily.
└?
└Isn’t her speech and appearance really similar?
└Is it?
└Half of her face is covered? And her voice is totally different!
└Lily doesn’t just kill people!
└True, Lily is a good person, she’s not a thief based on her past actions, that’s for sure. Yup!
└Yep, that’s definitely Lily~
└Whoa.
─Give our opposition some attention too…
└That opposition…
[Rapina sorts out the girls named Lily]
Author: Rapina’s Guardians
(A GIF of Rapina turning around with a dagger)
So, our Rapina has made her debut!
It’s a time when everyone should be congratulating her, yet there are people slandering this cool and stylish Rapina, so let’s debunk it!
First of all, saying Rapina looks similar to Lily is just nonsense.
Everyone knows that Lily’s character creation level is impossible, but that’s old news now.
It’s been several months since Lily debuted, and among those who can create characters, there are avatars that can match Lily’s vibe, if not exactly like her.
And Rapina is right at that ‘Lily vibe’ level.
I mean, she’s covered her body in a robe and only shows her eyes, and you’re saying she looks like Lily?
If that’s the case, there are already hundreds of Lilys in Deoen! LOL
I’m sure if you took off the mask, she’d look completely different.
I think Rapina just wanted to give off a Lily-like vibe.
Just being associated with Lily has massive impact, just look at it right now!
Everyone in the community is talking only about Rapina; do you think our Rapina didn’t know this?
She knew and aimed for fame!
She wanted to make a flashy debut while commanding the Banded, and intentionally presented similarities to Lily.
And the biggest reason she’s not Lily is due to Lily’s current status and personality.
Lily is worshipped by NPCs and users and is the king of the principality. How could she suddenly act like a raider in that situation?
There’s no way busy Lily, preparing for the Academy and the Great Cataclysm, would do that.
It would ruin her honor and destroy all upcoming quests for Lily.
Most importantly, her personality is completely different.
You might say their personalities are similar, but Lily actually cares a lot about her relationships with people.
Whenever something happens, she always seeks payment and only accepts something when the other party owes her a debt or does something for her.
Yena was uncomfortable even when she bought a boat with her money, and when they mentioned free magical stones on the ancient island, she said she was working as a librarian.
Well, the island… ended up that way, but anyway, Lily isn’t the type to just take or kill on a whim.
But Rapina? She says screw it and massacres bandits she doesn’t even know, taking over the guild.
Then she kills the regular users who come with the Knights and logs off, lmao!
Is this really Lily? Absolutely not!
+ Her voice is totally different too, lol.
Two-line summary:
1. Saying Lily and Rapina are the same person is nonsense.
2. Rapina is just giving off a Lily vibe and attracting attention.

─ Is that so?
─ No, it’s definitely Lily.
└ Nah, it’s not.
└ Don’t slander our Rapina, you Lily fans!
└ Seriously, lol, it’s obviously Lily, what are you talking about?
└ It’s not Lily, though?
└ Rapina’s voice is so nice, it’s on another level compared to Lily, dang.
└ The voice is Lily’s, what are you talking about, lol?
└ Gold cup, epic!
─ Reading this, I really don’t think it’s Lily; her personality is too different.
└ For real, would Lily go around killing and taking stuff? Anyone who’s seen her would find that unimaginable.
└ But I’ve seen another post saying Rapina didn’t kill regular users and let them go.
└? In the post, it said she killed them, is this fake news?
└ No, it’s true she killed the ones who acted up, but the ones attacked by raiders were spared; she killed the raiders.
└? Hahahahahahaha!
└ Rapina, hee hee…
─ Isn’t she just intentionally acting differently to create a separation? Like, trying to look less like Lily by killing?
└ No, Lily’s not like that; that’s her true nature.
└ Agreed.
└ LOL, there are a lot of Lily spokespersons here.
└ In the end, Lily is just a person.
└ What if Lily is an alien?
└ No way, that’s just weird, lol.
─ To clarify, Lily needs to go live. Until she does, I can’t believe it.
└ For real, haha.
└ Lily, go live. If you don’t, I’ll assume you’re the same person, yep.
└ I agree.

“…You’re saying you’ll go live, Lady Lily?”
“I’m not going to.”
Lily, who isn’t Rapina, has things to catch up on.
And…
“Anyway, even if I tell the truth, they won’t believe me.”
“Uh-huh?”
