Subscriber of the Gods Episode 87
Episode 87. What the Mountain King Was Protecting
“Let’s see if you can still make jokes like that with one arm cut off.”
The follower of the moon swung his sword as if he was going to think it over first.
Just as the Academy has the Rubinade Sword as its basic swordsmanship, there are swordsmanships that are passed down to those who belong to the Moon Followers.
The basic sword technique was the Said sword technique, which even the Bane realizes after walking seven steps that he has been cut.
Of course, I distributed a modified version that was easy to learn, but what the follower of the month was learning was a sword technique that was close to the original.
The sword flew so fast that I didn’t even realize it.
It was a blow aimed squarely at Ethan’s shoulder. He had no intention of killing him, so he deliberately aimed for the shoulder instead of the neck.
‘Got it!’
The Moon Followers were confident that the attack had been successful.
It’s already accelerating, and you’ll need to move even faster to avoid it.
Besides, I checked Ethan’s speed when we raided earlier.
Wheaaa …
And that conviction was proven right, because Ethan was unable to dodge the attack and was struck by the follower’s sword.
“no!”
But it was only a hit, his sword that should have pierced through the shoulder blade was blocked by Ethan’s shoulder.
“What is this… … .”
Ethan stepped forward and dug in, leaving the bewildered moon followers in front of him.
“Universal knowledge.”
-Absorbs damage!
-The damage has piled up.
– Accumulated damage [56%]
Ethan wrapped the damage he had absorbed around his sword. Then he lowered his body and took a stance.
His body was full of energy. He had strengthened his body through the Five Elements Acupuncture just before he charged.
“Moon Force.”
Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaah-.
As soon as the sword was slashed diagonally, an explosive cold energy burst out. The follower of the moon froze with a shocked expression, as if he had never thought he would die here.
“Hoooo.”
Ethan let out a breath of pure white air.
The first time I used Moon Force, I lost consciousness with this one hit.
But Ethan is different now.
“It’s worth using once.”
Of course, the power of Maninjijik was added to the Five Elements Acupuncture Method.
“He was probably curious about who I was. That’s why he probably used his swordsmanship to aim for my shoulder.”
If he had aimed for the neck, he would have blocked it with the Frost Sword without using the Maninjiji. But he aimed for the shoulder.
“Because I know everything about you guys.”
You can just bear it.
Ethan slowly placed the Frostblade back into its scabbard.
The Frost Sword, which had been emitting an incredible amount of cold air, stopped swinging as soon as it was put back into its scabbard.
“The universal wisdom is truly amazing.”
Even if the Moon Follower had not tried to kill him, the powerful blow of Seid’s swordsmanship was certainly threatening.
However, the Manincidence Earth absorbed and released all the damage.
“The best defense is a good offense.”
Ethan approached the suffering mountain king, having roughly grasped the direction of Hang-woo’s subscription review.
“Kurrrr, kurrrrr-!”
“Calm down. If you keep going like this, you’ll just end up a tiger. The name Mountain King will disappear.”
“Rain, you damn human… … .”
“We’re all human, but didn’t you hear me earlier? I’m an animal lover.”
The white tiger threatened Ethan even though he had lost all his strength, but he was literally just a toothless tiger.
So Ethan didn’t care and just made a potion on the spot.
It was a herbal medicine that could improve Baekho’s condition.
“I’ll spare your life. But make a deal with me.”
“Uh, deal… … ?”
“Okay, deal. I’ll spare your life, so follow my orders.”
“Stop talking nonsense! Krrrrrr! You are just another human being! I will never trust people like you!”
Baekho flatly refused.
Ethan watched the white tiger for a while and then made another potion.
And then he sprayed it directly at Baekho.
“Krrrrrr-!”
The white tiger, which had been reacting violently to something suddenly sprinkled on it, stopped moving for a moment.
He looked down at his body in surprise.
“The wound… … .”
The wound was healing.
Although the herbal medicine spraying didn’t have a strong therapeutic effect, it was clear that things were getting better.
“If you were going to kill me, you would have killed me a long time ago. If you were going to tame me, you would have tamed me a long time ago.”
At Ethan’s words, Baekho stared at Ethan.
“What on earth do you want, human?”
“If you don’t like hearing the word ‘order,’ I’ll say it again. I’ll spare your life. Just do me one favor.”
Ethan looked at Baekho with a grin.
“You, you’re the culprit.”
* * *
Horus could not hide his surprise.
“This is crazy. This is crazy. No matter how great my abilities are, this is not to this extent.”
Horus’ subscriber count and likes were exploding.
Horus is a god who gathers subscriptions and likes through merchandise sales rather than videos in [New World]. In other words, the videos are actually videos for the sake of merchandise.
The price of the goods is a whopping fifteen likes.
It was expensive, but I didn’t think it was expensive compared to the value.
“Ah, no… … .”
But I never thought it would sell like this.
I already knew that Ethan’s subscription reviews were great, and I knew that if I could get those reviews up, I would definitely be able to move up in the rankings even higher than before.
But I didn’t know it would be like this.
-The Eye of Horus, although expensive, is definitely good value for money.
-It’s great because you can use it right away and there are many ways to use it.
-My eyes hurt a little, but it’s usable!
-[I only subscribe to the right ones] I am subscribing after seeing the review of the person who subscribed. He is definitely worth subscribing to.
There were many subscription reviews filled with rave reviews.
Also, Ethan’s subscription review was garnered a lot of likes.
“This is scary. Can all these subscribers be swayed like this by just one subscription review?”
Horus looked at the subscription review that Ethan had written. The subscription review, which consisted of text and video, clearly detailed the abilities that could be gained by subscribing to Horus.
“This is it.”
Horus, who had seen Ethan’s subscription review repeatedly, understood why this subscription review was popular.
“We’ve created a heart-pounding video that demonstrates the powers you gain when you subscribe to a god like us.”
In addition, it suggests ways to utilize that ability and even tells you in what situations it would be good to subscribe.
In fact, this [Subscribe to Only the Proper] subscription review could be considered a milestone.
“Because subscribers think about efficiency.”
This is, so to speak, a strategy. A strategy for [New World].
“Khuhhhhh.”
Horus, who had thought that far, couldn’t hold back the smile that spread across his face.
“I’m responsible for one axis of that strategy.”
I couldn’t feel better.
“Can I just end this with one item? No way. I can’t let this go on for my new premium subscribers!”
Horus has started preparing new goods exclusively for premium subscribers.

“Cruck, cruck.”
The white tiger shook its forelegs.
The pain and dizziness I had felt just a moment ago had disappeared as if it were a lie.
The recovered Baekho saw another human searching the arms of the human who had tried to kill him next to him.
“Oh, there are many useful things. Are you using this to tame monsters? This is what I was throwing at Baekho earlier to remove his divine power.”
“Thanks to you, I recovered.”
As Ethan was packing his things, Baekho spoke to him with a growling sound.
“Did I hear correctly what you said earlier?”
“Right, since you saved my life, I have to make sure to carry it out, right? It’s exactly as I said before. That completes the deal.”
Ethan said this and waved the golden leash he had gotten from the Moon Follower around.
“Why would you do that? If you just killed that human, wasn’t it to stop what he was trying to do? Then there would be no reason for me to run wild in Iveca.”
“This plan has to go ahead as planned. Of course, those who should die will die, and those who shouldn’t die will die.”
Baekho realized what Ethan meant in that moment.
“Is there something to hide?”
“okay.”
“Then I understand. Since you saved my life. But I have something to protect. That’s why I can’t just leave here.”
“What should I keep in mind?”
Baekho, who had been looking at Ethan for a moment, turned his back. Then, he quickly moved forward as if telling him to follow him.
Ethan followed him.
After following it for about 10 minutes, a cliff appeared. The white tiger slid down the cliff and soon disappeared from sight.
“hmm.”
Ethan stood on the edge of the cliff and looked down. It was a cliff with no bottom. Ethan went down the cliff just like he had seen the white tiger earlier.
As he was going down, Baekho bit the back of his neck and threw him backwards.
After a somersault and a perfect landing, Ethan discovered what the white tiger was guarding.
“This…….”
“This is the place I am guarding. I have received His grace and become His messenger.”
“It’s a tiger.”
“… … .”
Baekho looked at Ethan with contempt.
‘But this… … .’
Ethan stroked his chin as he looked at the entrance, pretending nothing happened. It was an entrance he had seen many times.
It’s like the entrance to a temple… … .
Ethan slowly pulled out the Frost Sword-Leah just in case. The power of the Moon Force began to spread through the Frost Sword.
“Huh!”
At that moment, the mountain king Baekho opened his mouth without realizing it.
“Yes, you are a descendant of the goddess… … No, you were a descendant?”
The temple of the moon goddess Moonforce was guarded by the mountain king Baekho.
Ethan, who had quickly grasped the situation, was looking back at Baekho with a serious expression on his face.
“The goddess has sensed your danger. I, the descendant, have come to protect the mountain king of Grandhorn. You have been guarding the goddess’s temple well so far.”
“Crrrrrrr!”
Baekho closed his eyes and growled.
I have been guarding this temple for many years. The goddess did not respond, but I have lived thinking that I am repaying the favor I once received.
‘Did it work?’
Ethan thought he didn’t know and went straight into the temple of Moon Force.
* * *
-I found the temple of Moon Force!
This temple of Moonforce was much neater and larger than the two temples Ethan had previously found.
The statue in the center was still there and the altar was neat.
Above all, there were long chairs for prayer, something that was rarely seen in previous temples.
“I have guarded it diligently. Many have tried to enter this place, but I have repelled them with the teeth and claws given to me by the goddess.”
The mountain king said in a proud voice.
“You are a descendant of the goddess, so what did you say before…?”
“I am on a mission for the goddess.”
“I see. So that’s why you were hiding it. I couldn’t properly recognize the power because I was hit by that evil human’s magic earlier. I’m sorry.”
As if he finally understood everything, the mountain king let out a growling sound.
“I understand. I will do whatever I can to help, Your Highness.”
This place must be guarded, but the important thing is not the temple, but the goddess. If you are a descendant who has been given the mission of the goddess, you must put everything aside and help her.
The mountain king Baekho went to the statue of the goddess and knelt down before it.
The statue here was of Moon Force with his eyes closed and his arms outstretched as if he were embracing someone.
Below, the white tiger prayed.
Ethan also stood slowly in front of the statue.
-Would you like to pray?
Ethan closed his eyes quietly and prayed.
‘I came here by chance. However, I saved the white tiger that was guarding the temple, so I ask for your help in many ways.’
Shaaaak-.
The blessing of the Moon Force descended upon Ethan’s head.
-The Goddess of the Moon blesses you!
-Your career has grown.
There was no dramatic reward, perhaps because it did not directly save the temple from a crisis like before.
But the profession has certainly grown.
‘One more star has appeared.’
Now all stats are +30.
‘My body feels much lighter.’
Ethan took up the Frostblade-Leah and swung it around a few times. The force with which it was applied was definitely different than before.
The mountain king also stood up from his seat as if his prayer was over.
“I’ll explain the plan. Two days later, on the day of the parent-teacher conference, you will kill two people as I tell you. Then, you will be moderately beaten by the two teachers.”
“Understood, Your Highness.”
