The Disappearance of the Demon King of Rapid

Five days had passed since the Demon King of Rapid had vanished, and many players were vocal with complaints. While it wasn’t entirely reasonable to throw insults simply because high-quality content had dwindled, the dissatisfaction only highlighted how hungry the community was for fresh gameplay.

Of course, those searching for the Demon King of Rapid weren’t the majority. After all, Seong was still a rookie compared to the single-ranking giants, and his fanbase was far from threatening the established fan followings of top-tier players. Unless another event as groundbreaking as the “Fortress of the Past” occurred, it was unlikely that people would become as obsessed with him again.

Yet discussions persisted:

“Honestly, the Fortress of the Past?

Yeah, it was impressive—no one had cleared it before him.

But that was only because the game’s meta had shifted dramatically.

Back then, Yuna, now a single-ranked player, was number one in that event.

And was that during her Almighty-tier days?

Nope. Absolutely not.

The Demon King of Rapid is impressive, sure, but is he that special?

Given that he’s confirmed to have an Almighty-tier class now, let’s be real—any other single-ranking player could’ve cleared it if they’d had the chance.

So, will the Demon King of Rapid pull off another Fortress of the Past-level feat?

Doubt it. But feel free to prove me wrong.”

[ThatMightBeRight: Hmm, makes sense, kinda?]

[PoopSommelier: But he did crush it in the last big event, didn’t he? Totally dominated.]

└ [SamdoryuTryout (Author): He’s Almighty-tier, though. A large-scale combat-focused class should dominate events like that.]

└ [PoopSommelier: Fair point, I guess?]

Few believed Seong could recreate the impact of the Fortress of the Past. Despite his impressive showing in the recent large-scale event, it was, after all, an event limited to players under level 120. Given his class tier and abilities, his performance wasn’t seen as surprising.

Discussions naturally turned to hypothetical battles: could Seong hold his own against other Almighty-tier players in one-on-one duels?

1. You can play the long game by becoming a squire and serving knights for a whole year. But even then, you’ll need to pour a ton of money into the process.

2. Or, you can get recognized by at least six knights. But that’s where it gets insanely hard—you have to defeat NPC knights without using skills, relying solely on martial arts.
