About the white kid, owner of the first Legendary weapon ‘Astaroth’.araboja (+1881)
[Content]
After the World Boss raid ended yesterday, a world announcement popped up as soon as the white kid drew the weapon.
Everyone should know by now that the white kid’s full name is ‘Drizzle Rain’.
So, who is this Rain?
People who’ve been playing since Astria Online’s open should know, she was once posted on the gallery as the owner of a full set of Orc Warrior equipment.
First, her physical features stand out the most.
Small body and cute face, with pretty and unique eye and hair colors.
Even if you directly extract and create RGB codes, you can’t easily get that color combination.
There were even nightmare fusion-like creatures born from failing to copy her character creation, like Kim Jjalgit.
After that, sighting reports started coming up occasionally among elite dungeon advance party members.
She never talks to others at all and avoids people, and even if you spot her in front of a dungeon, she disappears in the moment you take your eyes off.
According to witnesses, her weapon changes not long after first clear parties form, so from this we can deduce she’s one of the tanks in first clear run parties.
And it was after the ‘Outpost’ opened that people started seriously finding connections with the first clear team ‘No Name’ party.
Around this time, posts about seeing the white kid started coming up from people who rode Chris’s party bus, right?
There’s nothing officially uploaded because Chris blocked dungeon interior screenshots and videos with in-game functions, but screenshots taken with external programs did come up occasionally.
Bus passengers all say that her playstyle is quite different from Swordsmen they’ve seen so far.
She deals excellent damage, and never gets hit by attacks.
She avoids what can be avoided, and blocks what needs to be blocked.
Swordsman users should summarize the details of the white kid’s damage cycle.
A tank with physical abilities surpassing Chris’s raid team’s main tank ‘Deathly Death’, and weapon replacement speed standing out even among advance party farmers.
And judging by the godlike performance shown in this Green Dragon attack, it’s almost certain that the white kid is the tank of the first clear party ‘No Name’.
Actually, when the white kid fought Cho Hyunsoo it was really amazing.
This proves she’s not just good at PVE.
She overwhelmed Cho Hyunsoo even with PVE equipment, and when damage wouldn’t go in due to equipment difference, she induced the dragon’s breath to finish him off, it was really perfect.
I think there would be no objections to calling her the strongest among current Swordsmen, no, among all users.
I’m uploading a few good screenshots and gifs of the white kid from the Green Dragon attack.

[Comments]
-Ooh… Huff…
-Gasp Gasp
-Why are the comments above like that?
ㄴ They’re people who’ll soon be arrested.
-Wow but she’s really cute. Small and pretty and good at the game too.
-Judging by her movements, her synchronization rate must be at the maximum or hacked beyond that, but while we don’t know about her face, her height itself should be like that in reality too, right?
ㄴ Yeah you can make the face look younger with character creation, but if you mess with height or body type the synchronization rate drops immediately.
ㄴ Gasp… If her height is that small… Is she a minor then?
ㄴ Is there a way for minors to play this game?
ㄴ Absolutely not. This game thoroughly verifies identity. Even though there’s a synchronization rate limit, because it’s a game where users can actually die, minors’ play is blocked due to the risk of mental shock.
ㄴ If a minor was illegally playing the game by breaking through the age restriction, the game company would have sanctioned them. The fact that she’s been playing continuously from the open until now means there’s no age problem.
ㄴ Her height seems to be in the late 140cm range. Well, there are adult women with small heights too.
ㄴ Yeah we can probably barely consider her an adult woman.
-Swordsman needs to be nerfed. Does that damage make sense?
ㄴ No nerfs. I’ll acknowledge if you can raise a Swordsman and deal even 80% of that damage. The white kid probably would’ve dealt good damage no matter what character she picked.
ㄴ Judging by how her vitality buff doesn’t break, she seems to be actively utilizing just guard judgments. And she lands all her skills without missing any.
ㄴ Yeah her one-hit damage and stats like agility, attack power, strength are average for a Temple full farming Swordsman. She just seems to be adding her agility to skills and stabbing well at various points.
ㄴ People who just use skills as they come out probably don’t know kekekeke. Look at the white kid using Flash Strike in the air. There are countless ways to utilize it depending on the user.
ㄴ But judging by how she avoids Swordsman instant skills during the Cho Hyunsoo battle, she definitely seems to be benefiting from synchronization rate? Is it really not capsule hacking?
ㄴ You can’t avoid like that just because your synchronization rate is high. It’s not like you guys can dodge bullets and stuff if you run around with swords in reality, right? Even Deathly Death with amateur boxing experience can only imitate that kind of movement. Even if her synchronization rate broke through the limit, it means her reaction speed in reality is above that of an athlete.
ㄴ Swordsmen have gained teaching material. They should try to imitate the white kid.
ㄴ Haah I wish a user like that would make a new damage cycle for Rangers too.
-But what’s the relationship between Chris and the white kid? I’m most curious about this ㅇㅇ
ㄴ Why are you curious about that kekekeke
ㄴ For real… I’m curious too… The picture of them standing together is so pretty.
ㄴ My circuits are spinning… A cute and obedient little sister and a cool older sister…
ㄴ Look at image 11. Honey is about to drip from Chris’s eyes kekekeke
ㄴ Gasp… Is it the relationship I’m thinking of? For real?
ㄴ Aren’t they just close older and younger sisters? They probably meet in reality too?
ㄴ The white kid who avoided people is only sticking close to Chris, so. They definitely seem super close.
ㄴ Didn’t the white kid say something about repaying with her body or whatever when she received the Dragon Heart during the auction;;;;
ㄴ But it doesn’t seem to have any deep meaning kekekekeke People who were there just said it was cute
ㄴ But there’s no problem even if they’re actually dating, right?
ㄴ Since the minor theory was denied, there’s no problem if they’re both okay with it.

“Haah.”
I sighed deeply looking at the messenger window that popped up in front of me, and rejected all friend requests that arrived today in bulk.
Who knew a world announcement would pop up when I acquired the Legendary weapon.
Due to an unexpected variable, my full name was revealed to the whole world.
Of course, I had accepted that my existence would be exposed to faction battlefield users during the World Boss attack.
My desire for the Legendary weapon was stronger than the risk of my unusual play being exposed above the surface.
But things got bigger than expected due to the world announcement.
I could get attention from the game company. The risk of my abnormally high synchronization rate being discovered has arisen.
But if I want to keep living in the Astria continent, it’s something I’ll have to face someday.
I can’t hide forever.
Is it all or nothing?
Now that it’s come to this, my life of hiding my existence is over.
[Red-White Guild]
[Guild Master / Yin-Yang Master ‘Chris’ (Offline)]
[Vice Guild Master / Fighter ‘Deathly Death’ (Offline)]
[Guild Member / Mage ‘Bae Merong’ (Offline)]
[Guild Member / Elementalist ‘Cherni’ (Do Not Disturb)]
…
…
The connection status of guild members appearing on the guild interface window.
Deathly Death and Bae Merong were offline, Cherni seemed to be doing something else.
I want to run buses with them to earn gold, but Chris is going to work after a while today. Anyway, I receive a basic salary even if I don’t run buses with Chris.
Then, I need to maximize the use of my spare time alone.
I looked once at my own Legendary weapon, ‘Astaroth’, that I obtained this time.
If it were an Elite weapon, I’d have to face enrage patterns due to lack of damage sometimes, so there’s no way I could run buses alone at speed.
But with this weapon, now I can run buses alone.
I’ve gradually become closer with Chris’s party members through her.
And during this Green Dragon attack, I reduced my aversion to people a lot while working with new connections, the Red-White guild members.
Rain, who used to run away at the mere sight of a person’s shadow, had grown a lot.
How long are you going to hide behind Chris unnie?
Now you need to know how to deal with customers alone.
It’s the first step towards socialization.
I opened the local announcement chat window in front of ‘Berbeia Ancient Temple’ after finishing today’s daily quests.
[Running Berbeia Ancient Temple bus. It might be a bit slow but I’ll do it cheap.]
Hmm, is this okay?
Is it too long?
Let’s write it again with a message that can clearly convey the meaning and draw aggro.
[★Safe Driving Bus★ ★Lowest Price in the Industry★]
Oh, this is good.
Beep-
Not even a few seconds after sending the message to the local chat, my chat interface started filling up with whispers.
[Me! Me! I’ll ride 5 times!]
[Hee hee! I want to ride!]
[Me me me me]
[Is there still space!?]
[White kid! White kid!]
[Am I too late!?]
[Rain! Rain!]
[Hello. I’d like to inquire about bus boarding.]
[Is Chris-nim there too by any chance?]
…
…
“Wah…!”
I jumped in surprise.
On the way down to the temple underground, three female user bus passengers started approaching and talking to me.
“Thank you for letting my friends ride together!”
“Wow, are you really running the bus solo? That’s amazing! As expected of Astria Online’s first Legendary weapon owner!”
“I guess you can solo with Temple full farming and a Legendary weapon owner. You must have practiced a lot too? I’ll get to see something good this time!”
“I-it’s nothing…”
I answered while shrinking my body a bit.
Running dungeon buses is a service industry where you receive money.
Of course you have to deal with customers too.
Fortunately, the first customers of ‘Rain’s Safe Driving Bus’ were female users. I felt less aversion to female users compared to male users.
The female mage user who first sent me a whisper asked if her friends could ride together as soon as she entered the party and heard I was running the bus alone.
No matter how many people are running the bus, the basic principle is one bus passenger per person.
This is because we receive a fixed amount in exchange for giving all items to one customer.
At first I was going to refuse. But the customer said it’s okay to divide items because she and her friends each need different item parts.
If the customer is okay with it, there’s no problem. Instead, I agreed to do it for the price of 2 people instead of 3 people.
A win-win structure for customer and bus driver possible because it’s a solo bus.
The bus driver can take 2 or more passengers who need different weapons and accessories, and customers can ride cheaper than the 1 person price.
If I do solo bus business like this, I might be able to repay Chris unnie’s money faster than expected.
“Kyaah…! Look at her hair color! It’s so pretty!”
“Oh my, how, how. Her eyes are so bright too!”
“How did you do the RGB code for your hair color?”
“Ye-yes? Ah, that’s.”
I started stumbling over my words while surrounded by female customers.
I was flustered by their barrage of questions.
My body shrank and my vision started spinning.
I quickly became tearful.
Dealing with strangers is still difficult.
