Subscriber of the Gods Episode 130
Episode 130. New Weapon (2)
“Jumong, you know that subscriber, right? That [subscribes to only the true gods].”
“Are you talking about the subscriber who writes good reviews? Why is that subscriber suddenly like that?”
“That subscriber left a review.”
“Oh, you subscribed to us? Hmm, did you write something in return for subscribing?”
“That’s not it, it’s something else.”
The two were not particularly surprised.
The Gungshin Hood channel was not a channel that could be swayed by a single subscription review.
Robin Hood was quite popular, and had more subscribers than the semi-major Hang Yu because he ran a channel with Jumong.
“Huh? You’re going to edit the video?”
[Only the real ones subscribe] The subscriber didn’t explain at length. He just showed the intermediate version of the hood video he had seen, and the video editing of the song.
At first, I didn’t have high expectations for the two gods. However, as I watched the video, their expressions gradually changed strangely.
“Ugh.”
“This… … seems to be a direct edit of what we learned from our videos?”
The edited video Ethan showed was quite short, around 25 minutes long.
But it contained everything from the original footage. It was a clear ‘edited’ version, with unnecessary parts cut out and the necessary parts glued together.
“We compressed the footage we shot over the course of several hours to create only the necessary parts.”
“I’ve included all the necessary parts. I watched our video from beginning to end. If you don’t understand the core, you can’t make an edited video like this.”
“Does it make sense to cut a 5-hour video down to 25 minutes?”
The two gods could not hide their surprised expressions. Exclamations came out naturally.
“Didn’t other gods do the same? It’s said that subscription reviews don’t work well for those in the mid-level or higher.”
“No, not at all. Heh heh.”
There has been a lot of talk among the gods lately about [subscribing to only the real gods].
The first thing that came to mind was his subscription review and the rice cake that benefited Heo Jun, which could be called truly innovative.
All the gods who were surprised by him tried to receive at least one review of his subscription.
This was especially true for lower-ranking gods or gods whose growth had stagnated.
It was natural that once you get a subscription review, you can get what is called a ‘rice cake’.
However, the gods other than the gods whose locations were ambiguous did not attach much importance to the subscription reviews of [only subscribe to the proper gods] subscribers.
They had time to spare.
There was also a size that was not swayed by a single subscription review.
So they weren’t paying much attention.
It was the same with Robin Hood and Jumong.
But this is a different story.
You could tell just by watching this 25-minute video.
This skill compresses 5 hours into 25 minutes.
“This will work with subscribers. It might even rake in some likes.”
“This is a big problem.”
I knew it the moment I saw it. It hit home even more because I’ve never had a subscriber like this before.
The tables will turn.
It’s different from the previous subscription reviews.
“This would be hard to imitate.”
Subscription reviews can be imitated.
But this kind of editing cannot be imitated. [Only the real gods subscribe] The subscribers’ unique perspectives are fully reflected in the video.
“Even if you copy it, the name value will be different from the beginning. Didn’t that subscriber already build up a considerable amount of recognition through subscription reviews?”
“I don’t know about other subscribers… … [I only subscribe to the real God] It’s different for subscribers.”
Robin Hood nodded at Jumong’s words.
They both knew it instinctively.
This perfectly edited video.
If you paste it into or replace an existing video, it will definitely attract likes from your subscribers.
“If it turns out like this… … .”
Jumong was certain that the new world would be stirred up again when this edited video was uploaded.
The gods will appeal to Ethan more actively than before.
Not only the gods of the lower ranks, but also the gods of the middle ranks and higher.
“And the gods would want [only the right gods to subscribe].”
“I became the only one. Again.”
Robin Hood laughed heartily.
Then I immediately left a message to [Subscribe to Only the Right God]. I enjoyed the edited video and said that we should talk more in detail by letter.

“It’s been a while, senior.”
“Jared! You seem very busy these days, but thank you for taking the time.”
Principal’s office.
Jared, the Heavenly Swordsman, bowed his head respectfully.
He was a fairly handsome man in his early forties.
“I don’t mean to be pretentious, but it took a lot of time. You know, don’t you? Those guys who believe in a perverse god. Those guys who follow the moon and call it Mother, they’ve been doing this a lot lately.”
“For Mother Moon, those guys who used to chant slogans like that and say that Mother Moon should purify the world. Are they still there?”
“It’s not just that. It has grown to a scale that even the Magic Empire can’t handle. Furthermore, they are hiding in the shadows and are secretly operating even on our side of the Holy Empire. We’ve already taken out dozens of places this year.”
The Inquisition Bureau, directly under the Holy Empire.
The Swordmaster of the Heavenly Heavens was the director of the Heresy Inquisition.
“There are quite a few Inquisitors who died because of them. Since there are so many of them, we also recruited a lot of Inquisitors from our side, but, um, they are all rookies, so it is difficult to deploy them.”
“Dozens of places?”
“Yes, it seems that they have established secret branches here and there in the Holy Empire and are gathering something. In addition… … I have received information that one of the princes of the Holy Empire is moving to collude with you.”
“Surely, there is a prince in our academy too.”
Although he kept it a secret from everyone, the principal knew about Oliveira.
“I don’t know which prince they are yet, but the princes have information about the Holy Empire. If that information gets to the Magic Empire, it’ll be a big problem.”
Jared sighed.
“I really appreciate you coming despite your busy schedule.”
“No, senior. Given the circumstances, I feel like I’m throwing a tantrum for no reason. Please think of it as the childish tantrum of a loser junior.”
Jared nodded and continued speaking with a smile.
“But this departmental exchange is really fun. I can’t believe Cloudy Hyde isn’t showing up.”
“Hahaha-. That Ethan Wickers you see here is an incredible teacher. Where should I start talking about this?
As if bragging about his own child, the principal began to tell a story from Ethan’s recruitment exam.
The story of how he declared at a celebration party that he would become a master.
And even parent observation classes.
“If you make me expect this much, I can’t help but look at it with an even colder eye.”
I could tell just by listening.
The principal seemed to want to promote Ethan, who was a great teacher who had achieved, if not accomplished, great things at Ibeca.
That’s why Jared had no choice but to cut him off mid-sentence.
Even though Ghost Sword is his senior, he cannot grant his request.
But the principal shook his head when he saw Jared like that.
“Look at it calmly. Without limit.”
“……yes?”
“Rather, I would like to ask you to forget everything. Even me, your senior, and the information that you defeated Mr. Claude Hyde. Just evaluate it as it is.”
“hmm…….”
The principal said with a smile.
“Then, all those boastful words I said will come back to mind. I hope you’ll take better care of your facial expressions then.”
* * *
Inter-departmental exchange program.
The annual exchange between the College of Knights and the College of Magic was one of the largest events at Ibeca Academy.
“The strongest-! The College of Knights!”
The two departments within the Academy, the Faculty of Magic and the Faculty of Knights, were traditional rivals. As a result, students belonging to each department were able to support their department with a sense of belonging.
Of course, the academy also provided T-shirts suitable for each department.
The knight school was red, and the magic school was blue.
“Vanguard-! Magic Faculty!”
The cheering from both departments was also quite earnest.
The knight department continued with the flashy cheers of the swordsmanship and spearmanship departments, but in reality, its flashiness was nothing compared to that of the magic department.
The magic and alchemy departments were determined to cheer them on in a flashy way, but the visible flashiness was far behind.
“Nothing much! Our magic department will take first place again this year?”
The cheerleading squad leaders from each department continued to liven up the atmosphere.
“We will start the departmental exchange event!”
The Dean of the College of Magic used mana to announce the start of the departmental exchange, and the Dean of the College of Magic used amplification magic to announce the start of the departmental exchange in a loud voice.
The principal came out, and then the judge, Jared, the swordsman of the sky, came out. Jared greeted the cheering students with a friendly smile.
“I would like to introduce the professors representing each department.”
“This is Mr. Ethan Wickers from the Department of Knights. He is the new teacher who joined us this time!”
Three students came in one after another with Ethan.
Mason Yellowd.
Ron Bears.
Yuna Garnet.
When these three entered at the same time, the students started to stir. It was because Yuna Garnet and those two seemed to change their appearances every time they saw each other.
The appearance and the aura itself were different.
“oh…….”
“I guess you really tried really hard.”
“Is that really Ron? Is that really Ron Bears?”
Especially the magic and the side made a surprised expression.
Magic students would occasionally see the giant Lone Bears when attending knighthood classes, but it looked completely different now.
Three students stand in a row, with Ethan behind them. Who would think that they are new teachers?
He didn’t look nervous at all.
“This is Professor Duti von Niedern from the Department of Magic. He is a dependable, senior teacher in the Department of Magic!”
Three students followed along with Duty. The first two were Serana and Vilkas, members of the Golden Generation, and the last was Ingerd, Roanna’s substitute.
Ingerd was a second-year student like Roanna and was quite a talented wizard.
“Roanna isn’t here?”
“Huh? Roanna isn’t here?”
“Why isn’t Roanna here?”
There was a huge reaction when Ingerd appeared instead of Roanna. Although Roanna is the core of the magic, the weight seemed to be reduced when Ingerd stood in Roanna’s place.
“Student Roanna will not be attending this exchange due to personal reasons!”
“… … It’s true.”
When they saw Roanna’s absence, Ethan’s three students looked back and forth between the Magic students and Ethan with surprised expressions.
Ethan said he took action against Roanna, but the real Roanna never showed up.
“S, no way… … .”
“I didn’t kidnap you. How did you see me?”
Ethan frowned at Yuna’s question. Yuna laughed awkwardly, “Hehe.”
“Roanna’s voluntary surrender.”
“Why… … did you give up?”
“I was promised an assistant position.”
“!”
Ethan’s teaching assistant position.
The three students nodded at the same time. If they had been promised a teaching assistant position, it would be understandable for them to voluntarily give it up.
Because if Ethan were to promise them a teaching assistant position in exchange for giving up something, they would accept it without even hearing the terms.
“The odds are 50/50 now. Even though Roanna is gone, two of them are part of the Golden Generation. It all depends on what you do. All I can do is teach you and increase your chances of winning. It’s up to you to get the results. If you win, you can be called the Golden Generation, right?”
Ethan said.
“This time, what I’m going to say is the same. It’s okay to lose. Just get something out of it.”
“But is it really true that I can’t lose?”
At Ron’s words, Ethan slapped Ron on the back.
“theory.”
“Yes, teacher.”
“If you’re curious, try it.”
“Ugh… … .”
Ron thought he absolutely must not give up. And he thought to himself.
‘If I lose, I’ll drop out.’
Mason and Yuna, who were next to them, also had serious expressions.
“It seems like you guys are finally starting to relax. Don’t worry. Just do as you’ve been doing.”
Ethan stepped back.
From now on, it was the students’ time.
“Everyone, the exchange competition between each department will begin now.”
The principal continued speaking.
“In our Ibeka, the rankings are determined by performance. So the friend next to you is also a competitor. But remember, you are not competing with others. It doesn’t matter how strong the friend next to you is.”
The principal was silent for a moment and then looked around, as if trying to make eye contact with each student.
“Competition with myself. That’s the most important. This exchange is meant to be like that. It’s not a sparring match, but a showdown between each other. Swordsmanship with swordsmanship, magic with magic. To make the exchange more fun, we give points. Everyone, always set your own standards and reach them. Don’t compare yourself to others.”
The principal said.
“Only you can satisfy yourself. So work hard.”
Clap, clap, clap.
Beginning with the Heavenly Swordsman Jared, applause and cheers filled the training grounds.
“We will now begin the departmental exchange.”
