UR@DUDE: The faq! This dude has done it. He's getting popular as faq!

SILVER@SHOELACE: Faq this lucky guy who got popular just because he got a high-starting Link Force.

MOONSHINE@SELENE: YOU FAQERS! Dying of envy and jealousy, aren't you?

UR@DUDE: Shut up, delusional dude.

SILVER@SHOELACE: You're no better than us.

RING@FORCE: Following this Lucent is the right choice. I enjoy watching him getting killed by Cerberus.

UR@DUDE: TRAITOR!

SILVER@SHOELACE: DEEP FRIED SHIT!

RAIDS@CURSE: But now that Cerberus is done with him, he's no better than other players.

KCID@EID: That's right. Especially now that his Link Force is down to 3 percent.

UR@DUDE: This dude is about to lose his popularity in no time.

SILVER@SHOELACE: Can't wait to see that happen... Hahaha!

MOONSHINE@SELENE; YOU ALL ARE SUCH PATHETIC LOSERS!

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Seriously... I didn't think that Cerberus would hunt you until your Link Force was down to 3 percent, Lucent. Usually, high-ranking Ragnarok Beast stops hunting players with high-starting Link Force when their Link Force reaches below 20 or 15 percent.

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Cerberus must really like you a lot, Lucent... Hahaha.

DEVOUR@SilverPup: But thanks to that we're able to learn so much about the Rank A Ragnarok Beast Cerberus.

DEVOUR@SilverPup: You know, with the size of the RAIDS ONLINE Map that is comparable to the real world, finding the location where high-ranking Ragnarok Beasts are nesting and Raiding them is quite difficult, especially without a bait like you, Lucent.

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Hey!... You're reading this right?... At least reply and say something!... Don't make me look like a fool doing a one-person comedy act!

DEVOUR@Lucent: I'm reading your message...

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Sheesh... You're like my father when it comes to sending messages.

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Either way... Now that Cerberus has stopped hunting you, it's time to do some Raids to increase your Link Force.

DEVOUR@SilverPup: You should take a rest for a few days, then let me know when you're ready for another Raid. The Orion Guild will help you get back your Link Force.

DEVOUR@SilverPup: By the way... Accept my friend request ALREADY!

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Also... Look into your Bank Account. The Orion Guild has already sent your share from the revenue of our Boss Raid videos.

DEVOUR@Lucent: Okay, I look into it. Thanks...

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Is that a joke?... You seriously sound like my father... Hahaha!

A week has passed since the end of the Boss Raid against the Rank A Ragnarok Beast Cerberus. And just like what his cousin Rammie has said, Luel decided to stop playing RAIDS ONLINE for a while.

Putting aside the fact that he needs to recover and get away from the stress of his series of anxiety and panic attacks that happened in the past two weeks because of getting killed repeatedly by Cerberus at RAIDS ONLINE, Luel doesn't want to keep troubling his cousin. Most of all, Luel doesn't want to make his parents, who are enjoying their retirement life traveling abroad, worry about his condition and his brothers, who are living in the Capital City.

Luel needs to lie low for a while until Rammie's anger calms down to the point that she will forgive Luel when his next anxiety and panic attack strikes again because he continues playing RAIDS ONLINE.

In a week of rest away not only from the presence of Ragnarok Beasts and RAIDS ONLINE players but also from the harsh comments on his RAIDS ONLINE Channel, Luel spends his time researching the RAIDS ONLINE Website about SilverPup and BlueHeroine's history.

What Luel learns about SilverPup and BlueHeroine's history is definitely interesting, but SilverPup has just said something much more important, so Luel decides to put aside his flashback.

...MONEY...

...The one thing that runs the 99 percent of the world...

...What people said that can't buy happiness...

...How about you try saying that to those who don't have enough to put food on their table for their entire family?...

...What Tony Stank said that can't buy a second of time...

...How about you try saying that to those who are dying because they can't afford expensive treatment and medicine for their sickness?...

...Seriously, don't go spouting those faqing nonsense...

...If you're sad and depressed with your life, don't blame it on all the money you have...

...Has money ever done something bad to you?...

...If you don't want your money then give them to those who need it...

As those thoughts ran through Luel's mind, he opened his almost empty Bank Account only to find zeros, way too many zeros.

DEVOUR@Lucent: SilverPup...

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Ohh!... What is it, father? Is something wrong?... Hahaha!

DEVOUR@Lucent: Enough with the joke... What's with that amount?...

DEVOUR@SilverPup: You mean your share?... Is it too low for you, Lucent?

DEVOUR@Lucent: Of course, not!... It's the other way around... Isn't it way too much?...

DEVOUR@SilverPup: 10,000 USD is too much?... Hahaha!... You're making me laugh, Lucent.

DEVOUR@Lucent: What?...

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Do you forget who we are?... We're the Orion Guild, one of the highest guilds in RAIDS ONLINE... HAHAHA!

DEVOUR@Lucent: What does that mean?...

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Aside from the fact that Orion Guild has millions of followers, both from players and non-players, we hosted a Boss Raid against The Rank A Ragnarok Beast Cerberus for 8 times straight. Of course, we will earn a hefty bunch.

DEVOUR@SilverPup: We indeed gave you a 100 percent bonus for being a bait against Cerberus multiple times than what we initially expected, but your share only comes from the Ads revenue. We still have Subs revenue for the Guild.

DEVOUR@SilverPup: Anyway... Enjoy your first earnings from RAIDS ONLINE, Lucent.

Luel's hands trembles, holding his phone, as he reads SilverPup's messages.

Finally, Luel received his first earnings from RAIDS ONLINE. A total of 10,000 freaking USD.

Luel has already applied for monetization of his own RAIDS ONLINE Channel but it would still take a month for it to get verified and approved. That's why Luel isn't expecting to receive any earnings this early.

10,000 USD is a freaking huge earning, considering the fact that Luel has only been playing RAIDS ONLINE for less than a month. It's even more than a lot compared to his monthly salary at his previous jobs and all the commission he got from all the projects he had before.

While Luel is staring at the unbelievable amount of money in his Back Account with a look like he has lost his reason and common sense, his thoughts regress to the most basic human instinct of having extra and out-of-the-blue disposable income.

"How should I spend all of this money?... Fufufu..."
