Emma looks at me with disbelief.
"Trev... what have we done?"
An earthquake happens in the whole Orion. That soon to be a hot trending topic around the world.
The Pit of Hell crumbled and a fifty meters tall half-human half-spider surfaced from the ground. Six scythe-like legs stabbed the ground and the other two were covering her face. A scream made our eardrums hurt. Eight Arachne Servants appeared along with the queen.

I grabbed Emma's hand and pulled her to hide in the woods. We both looked at them while hiding. Emma looked at me.
"What should we do? We only have 12 hours."
I shake my head.
"It's fine, it's 12 hours real-time, not in-game time. So we practically have 12 days."
Emma is breathing heavily since she's still exhausted from the battle earlier.
"It doesn't matter though... who can kill her?! Her level is 550 with over four hundred thousand HP!"
I look at her.
"I can... my stats value are equals to level 983. But that means nothing if I don't have proper equipment and weapon. It's like a professional driver driving an old scrappy car in a race. I can finish the race but it will take effort and a stupidly long time."
Emma is looking at me and the Arachne back and forth.
"What do you mean by your stats value?"
I share my status screen with Emma. She jolts and grabs my shirt.
"What the hell are these stats of yours?! How can you have unbelievably high stats?!"
I grab her hands.
"I'll explain it to you later. For now, let's leave and raise our levels."
Emma is looking at the time.
"It's 9 p.m., I have to go to work..."
I look at her and look at the time.
"I see. Then I'll increase my level on my own."
I stand up and Emma grabs my back and pulls herself up.
"No! I'm coming with you! I don't want to go to work today."
I chuckle.
"Alright, follow me then. Let's go back to the place from earlier."
Emma nodded and we both left the Pit of Hell.
I opened my inventory and ate all the soul essences.

I check my status screen.

We are done hunting monsters for today. We are resting inside an inn in Fjel. I'm checking the forum right now.
[VoW World Boss.]
[S: Yo! Did you guys hear the VoW? A World Boss appeared! Does anyone know where the World Boss is at? Please reply A.S.A.P.
B: Is this the first appearance of World Boss? My level is 72, is it enough to join the event? Also, where does the World Boss appear?
Annon T: It's in the No Man's Land, not far from Fjel Town. Go far southeast from there and you will find her.

W: Guys! Check this [Link]. Supremacist Clan is recruiting all the players to join them in an attempt to defeat the World Boss!]
I informed them of the coordinates and as soon as I posted that, everyone mentioned and replied to my comments. My job is done and I didn't bother to check their questions and replies.
I click the link, then walk towards Emma that is lying on the bed, and tap on her back. She turns around and looks at the screen forum in front of me. She sits down and reads the forum together.
[Supremacist Clan Announcement!]
[Kingstar: My name is Kingstar, the clan leader of Supremacist. We are recruiting players around the world to join us in an attempt to defeat the World Boss. Those players above level 100 are welcome to join us. (We are Supremacist, we are the sky above the sky, we are here for domination of the Orion!).
Queenstar: Those who are interested can DM me and give me your character status screen screenshot. We will organize the raid teams based on your status. We will inform you when and where we will be gathering the teams. So please pay attention to any notification on your screen. (We are Supremacist, we are the sky above the sky, we are here for domination the Orion!).]
We both are looking at each other. Emma is snoring and covering her mouth.
"That slogan is so cringed..."
We both are chuckling and then burst out laughing.
Several days of in-game time have passed. I explained to Emma about LUK and what are the benefits of raising LUK. She couldn't believe it and still thought that it was stupid. She didn't get jealous because she knows how risky and hard it is to use this method.
Only two more days before the quest failed. We both are resting for a moment to replenish our stamina.
"Open Status."

I whistle at her stats.
"Behest's Series and Athar's series are amazing, huh?"
Emma is raising her eyebrows repeatedly while grinning.
"I know. Thank you, Trev. You're really the best!"
I scoff and then check the forum.
Emma approaches me and sits beside me to see the forum with me.
"Today is the day, right? The Supremacist raid teams are going to attempt to defeat Queen Arachne. Hey, let's check their raid teams, I'm curious."
I browsed through the forum and found it.
[Supremacist Raid Teams.]
Queenstar: We selected the players from the submission. We managed to recruit over 2000 players. We have divided them and put them in a team of 20 players. We have 104 raid teams. Check your name and on which team are you. Please read thoroughly.
Leader Team:
1. Kingstar (Lv.188)
2. Queenstar (Lv.188)
3. Grim Rime (Lv.147)
4. Alec Stovankov (Lv.143)
...
...
...
...
Emma nods with understanding.
"That's a lot of players. This is going to be fun to watch."
I'm humming with an agreement.
"Yeah. I wonder if they're here already. Want to go back to town? Maybe the town is crowded with players right now."
Emma nods and stands up.
"Let's go back."
We are near the town and as I expected, thousands of players are crowding the town. Everyone is here to see the World Boss. At first, I was reluctant to give them the coordinates since I'm afraid that maybe one of those players has the recommendation letters and took the hidden quests before me. But I promised Becker to let the players enjoy the game. So, if that happens then it happens. It doesn't matter since it's hard to do the hidden quests on their own.
A player approaches us.
"Hey! What are you doing over there? That place is restricted to anyone else except for Supremacist raid teams!"
Emma and I are looking at each other and scoff. Emma sighs.
"My bad, we are just curious about this place. We were wandering around near the town though. We didn't go that far."
The player is still skeptical about it.
"Tsk, forget it. Just stay away from this area, noobs."
We both are shocked by this guy's words and just brushed it off and walked away. We could tell which is which by the banner on top of their heads. The Supremacist's banner.
A pink-haired woman wearing full plate armor and two swords on her waist and a broadsword on her back is standing next to a gold-haired man wearing the same full plate armor. They are Kingstar and Queenstar, the top 1 and 2 players in the world.
"We will march at noon, go to your team's leader and form the party. Our scout team has confirmed that Queen Arachne level is 550 with over four hundred thousand HP. She's protected by her servants that are also Mini-Bosses. We will do a briefing with each teams' leaders now. Go and prepare yourself as we had informed you in the forum. We will not tolerate any misconduct and report you immediately. We all here not to playing around, this is a serious matter that will affect every player! Now, go and prepare yourself. Everyone is dismissed!"
All the players are screaming.
"We are Supremacist, we are the sky above the sky, we are here for domination of the Orion!"
Emma and I are covering our mouths to hold our laughter from that cringe slogan.
All the players are busy preparing themselves before going to raid. Emma and I are enjoying watching them all from the distance sitting on the table near the market. Then a woman with a curly medium-length white-haired that covers half of her right eye and green eyes approaches us.
"Can I join you guys?"
Emma and I are looking at each other and nod. Emma
"Yeah. help yourself, Miss..."
The white-haired woman smiles.
"My name is Ivonna."
