 ﻿During the two hours until the trailer was released, Amoura and the other streamers avoided playing Residual Devil and focused only on discussing the game, the improvements they had achieved in their marksmanship scores, and even comparing various other experiences with viewers.
 When viewers noticed that 8 Rank F streamers were doing the same thing, they started asking the streamers to get on a voice call together while waiting for the trailer, as it would be more fun to see their interaction.
 Finding this idea of â€‹â€‹viewers' cool, the streamers all decided to do this and got together to discuss the experiences they had had with the game.
 "Are any of you also a firearms user?" Amoura asked curiously, as she didn't know the other Streamers very well.
 A boy answered, "I am! Did you also increase your marksmanship points by a lot?"
 "Yes, I managed to increase my points from 630 to 700 Points! If I can raise them another 80 points, maybe I can get a support slot in an E Rank mission!" Amoura said excitedly. "All this because of Residual Devil!"
 The boy got excited as he replied, "Me too! I only had 560 Points before playing Residual Devil, but after I played the game for 2 hours, my score went up to 640! That was an increase of 80 points in just one day! I've never had such an amazing improvement in just a day!"
 At that moment a girl interrupted, "Have any of you also tested your efficiency with knives?"
 But the other streamers were confused. "What do you mean? Doesn't the game only offer improvements for firearms?"
 The girl smiled as she explained, "Hehe, I thought that too. I decided to try Residual Devil just because it was an interesting game that viewers recommended after seeing Amoura playing it, but since I'm a player focused on melee weapons, I just played it for the fun of it. During the combat, I ditched the pistol and tried playing the game with just the knife your character carried on him, and guess what?!"
 Amour was shocked. "Don't tell me your melee training score has gone up too?"
 The girl laughed out loud. "Hahahaha, yeeeeeeeaaaaah! I had a score of 527 points before playing Residual Devil, but after playing the game for 3 hours, my score went up to 613 points! I received 86 game improvement points in a single training day! Even Knife Duel Simulator couldn't give me that much of an improvement! And what surprised me the most was that the game isn't even focused on melee battles!"
 [OMG, I didn't download Residual Devil because I'm a player focused on sword combat. Could it be that if I play it with the knife it could also improve my combat?!]
 "I think so!" The girl responded to the comment, making viewers of all of the livestreams even more excited!
 With that information alone, the amount of downloads for Residual Devil saw another explosive increase. Adding up the Livestream viewers of all these streamers, they had a total of 3 thousand people, with Amoura being the biggest streamer among them with 700 viewers and the others with less people.
 "Hey, did anyone else find a shotgun in the game? It's a lot easier to kill Zombies with the shotgun," a chubby and slightly shy boy chimed up.
 He was the streamer with the least viewers in the group, with only 60 people watching him, but he was very good at shooting, to the point that his marksmanship training points were already at 820. However, he had not become a ranked player out of shyness.
 "Is there even another gun other than a pistol in the game?" Amoura asked in surprise.
 "Ye- Yes, I managed to find a hidden shotgun. Unlike the pistol, where you need a lot of shots to kill the zombies, if you shoot the shotgun at their head, the zombie dies pretty much instantly," the boy explained, which left both streamers and viewers in awe.
 "Could it be that there are other things hidden in the game that we just haven't found?" Another boy asked excitedly.
 "Maybe? I've never heard of a Developer doing something like that before, but this EA doesn't seem to follow the routine that other Developers seem to do, so it's possible there are more hidden things as well." Amoura gave her point of view.
 "That's interesting. If it wasn't for the trailer that's coming out in 30 minutes, I'd want to jump in the game and look for any other secrets now!" the other girl said excitedly.
 The conversation that these F-Rank streamers were having was something quite new for viewers. As games were usually made just for training, streamers had no real reason to interact other than if they were going to compete with each other, but since Residual Devil was so innovative, seeing something like this happening just to discuss things in the story, secrets they found, or even commenting on viewers' experiences, it was something that made all of the viewers very interested.
 And not only were the viewers the normal followers of these streamers, but there were also other viewers who didn't know what to watch, saw this situation going on, and tuned in on the livestreams so they could see what these people were discussing.
 When they saw that this game was so interesting, they were eager to see the trailer too, wanting to know what innovations it might bring. With that, the total number of viewers on the Livestream of those 8 people went up from 3 thousand people to 5 thousand during the two hours until the launch of the trailer.
 Amoura had already broken the mark of 1,000 simultaneous viewers for the first time in her life, which made her very excited and grateful for Residual Devil.
 Even among the other streamers, some had managed to raise their total number of viewers to over 600, while even the smallest streamer, the shy chubby kid, managed to raise his viewership to 180 people, a number he never thought he would reach, making his cute little face show a big smile of happiness while thanking everyone who was watching him - especially when he promised that he would play Residual Devil again and that he would show everyone where to find the shotgun. This one statement then made his followers rise to more than 500 people, made up of both players that had already tried Residual Devil as well as new players who had just discovered the game and wanted to have special knowledge to help with their gameplay.
 In the blink of an eye, the 2 hours until the trailer came and passed, and they were only 30 seconds from having the trailer available.
 "Hey, only 30 seconds left! Let's watch the trailer together!" Amoura pitched the idea, finding it really fun to talk to these people rather than just being alone.
 "Yeah! I want to watch it with you too!" The other girl was also excited as she agreed, liking these other people who also enjoyed the same game as her.
 So the 8 streamers got together to watch the trailer.
 The total number of viewers that was at 5k had risen to 6k in the last 60 seconds, probably from people who set reminders to come back to the livestream and see what that trailer they'd been waiting for would show.
 On all of the streamers' screens, in the last 10 seconds, a countdown started.
 10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3! 2! 1!
 [For a visual representation of the trailer, I sent the link to it on Discord, in case anyone wanted to watch the trailer before, or while reading the chapter. discord.gg/ky35Kv7GHr]
 [Trailer (I just realized now that the trailer version I used to write this chapter is only available in Portuguese. This game has like 15 different trailer versions. Thank you for understanding. If you want to see the visual parts of the trailer even though it's not in English, this is the link. The parts with important dialogue I translated into English during the chapter.)]
 Suddenly, the screen switched to a group of people dressed as peasants from a medieval period, holding hands in prayer.
 [Eminent ones, hear our voices, united in reverence.]
 With the lighting of the fire and their voice together, it felt very macabre and mysterious.
 "Hey, this is the prayer scene at Luisa's house!" one boy commented.
 "Yes, I remember I was scared to death when experiencing this the first time. I even thought a demon would be summoned, haha," one girl commented.
 [The castle bell portends danger! They are coming!]
 The image changed to the player looking at the castle while the strange old woman spoke in her crazy voice.
 [What's with this sinister story? This baby is only six months old.]
 Suddenly, the scene changed to a player speaking with Ethan's voice while looking at a woman holding a baby.
 "Hey, is this Ethan's daughter, Rose - the girl who we're looking for in the story?!" Amoura said excitedly.
 "I think so! Wow, will chapter 01 show what Ethan's life was like before he arrived in the village? That's why she appeared in the trailer?!"
 "Woah, his wife is so beautiful! His life must have been really good!"
 "Look how cute Rose is!"
 "The salesperson said it's a traditional fairy tale of the area." Ethan's wife commented as she handed the book over for him to look at.
 On the cover of the book was written the words: Village of Shadows.
 "Hey, is this Village of Shadows the village we were in while we were playing?"
 "I think so...Maybe it's some macabre story about the village?"
 "Will it be possible to read the book during chapter 01 to understand the history of the village?"
 "Man, Developer EA really thought about every detail of this game's story, huh? If this was a real book, he'd be rich by now, since this is much more interesting than any book I've ever read!"
 "Yeah, I've never had so much fun while playing a game."
 So the trailer began to switch between scenes of the happy life Ethan had with his wife and daughter, while showing a SWAT squad entering his house and killing his wife.
 "Damn it, why did they kill her?!"
 "Could it be that they kidnapped Ethan's daughter to take her to the village?"
 "Motherfuckers, I have to kill them all and save Rose!"
 With the development of the trailer, the more than 6,000 people watching the livestream saw Ethan deal with countless Zombies, different species of monsters, even a woman with a huge mouth that controlled insects. There was also a huge Zombie who had a giant hammer slamming into Ethan, sending him flying.
 Each scene both shocked and scared the viewers. People who had already played Residual Devil thought that they would be able to continue playing the game without any fear, since they had already killed a few zombies, but when they saw the other monsters that Ethan would encounter in the story, those people got scared again.
 It was already very difficult to fight a single zombie at a time. What would they have to do when several zombies came at the same time?! There was even a scene where Ethan was facing over 15 zombies! How could they survive that?!
 At the end of the trailer, seeing Ethan suffocated by a large amount of metal falling from the sky took the viewers' breath away.
 Those who didn't know Residual Devil before were now shocked and very afraid of this game.
 [How is it possible for a game like this to exist?! Usually games are made for us to train! How can I train if I'm going to be scared to death?!]
 [Holy shit, I almost shit my pants watching this.]
 [There really are people who play a game like that?!]
 [Hey, is this game free?!]
 [I want to play this!]
 [It looks so interesting!]
 Public reaction was mixed. There were people who were terrified when they saw this scary trailer, but the vast majority of people had their hearts beating very fast, as they had never seen such an interesting game before.
 Even though they were so scared, such a unique experience seemed so amazing!
 And so, the number of Residual Devil Downloads skyrocketed again, rising to over 2000 people in a few hours, but that number just kept going up!

 "Among the 11 modern arts, the 10th art has always been my favorite. I experienced so many amazing classics in my other world, that I felt compelled to be able to provide this art to the people of this world as well."
 After finishing playing all the games nominated for the "Games Award" that year, Gabriel, known on the internet as Gabe, felt that life was really beautiful, experiencing so many beautiful things while playing, he felt quite satisfied, until he woke up in an unknown place.
 Confused, Gabe felt new memories surging through his mind, indicating that he had transmigrated to another world, a world where humans needed to create virtual worlds so that the population could arm themselves to fight the monsters that threatened to wipe out their race.
 But something shocked Gabe, these virtual worlds were like VR games that people could play and get items or abilities, and the surprise was that from the memories he received, his current body was a developer of Virtual Worlds.
 Follow Gabe's journey to become the greatest game developer in human history.
 Do humans need battle skills against monsters? I will do my favorite game that fights against zombies.
 Do humans need monsters to fight alongside them? I will make monsters that can be balled up and evolve to fight alongside humans.
 Is the technology of humans too weak? I will make alien robots that can transform into vehicles and shoot lasers.
 Does the government want to control me? Sorry, but I was running the government before that.
 From a young man who couldn't develop the most basic game to graduate from university, to the most powerful developer in the world, Gabe used all the knowledge available to him to reach the pinnacle of the world and take humanity along with him.

 Become a prophet? Recruiting the most outstanding individuals to eradicate demons? Leading the holy army in the extermination of evils? Growing stronger until you finally defeat the demon lord?
 Or you can choose to become the demon lord itself. Create your own subordinates, even shape them according to your wishes. You can also build a dreaded kingdom of darkness and make an army of chaos.
 In the VR game "Mistrea: A Fantasy Management Sim Game of Light and Dark," both options are available.
 And the second choice appeals to Ethan Alexander more. To be a good citizen in the real world, he had to follow the rules; why would he do so in a fantasy realm?
 Thus, in the world of magic and fantastic creatures, he was reborn as Vorn, the demon lord. But that doesn't mean he'll make the world fall into an era of darkness right away. He will not launch campaigns of heinous human slaughter.
 It would be no fun for him to rule over a ruined world. That means that those who worship him will be scarce. He wanted to be adored, hailed and regarded as equal to God by many people.
 He will keep using methods that are not constrained by any rules. The evil way, but not always violent, and more fun.
 ---------
 This story will have some steamy scenes, but those are not the main focus.
 Main protagonist's girls won't get cucked by others.
 I consider this novel a multiple protagonist story. So, there will be POV switches.
 Some parts feel slow, but I guarantee it will be worth your time.
 There will be some dark jokes, so don't be surprised.

 Kieran Silver―an extremely talented individual who used his superior battle senses and blessed mechanical skill to rise through the gaming world’s ranks.
 However, those same gifted senses came at a mortifying price. His seemingly unique gift inevitably led to the rapid degeneration of his mind’s normal functions.
 It was a "seemingly impossible-to-cure" curse in the package of a blessing. Alas, Kieran’s so-called comrades and guild leader only revealed on his deathbed that while an admitted treatment existed, the board withheld the information in fear of him becoming a monster that the guild could no longer control.
 After all, with his potential, it was only a matter of time until he reached the true epitome of the remarkable VRMMORPG known as Zenith Online. Any one of the overlords of Zenith Online commanded tremendous strength in the real world because the game evolved continuously until, at its lowest, it turned into an unprecedented financial engine.
 At that point, many entities on Earth used it as a path to fame and fortune, while others used it as an outlet to release their daily accrued stress.
 Enraged by the revelation on his deathbed, Kieran’s resentment soared to astronomical heights.
 Fortunately, Kieran is given another chance when he is ostensibly reborn to a period just before the official launch of Zenith Online.
 Since most of his knowledge is limited to events regarding Zenith Online, Kieran decides it will be the catalyst to support his ultimate path forward.
 Thus, this marks the beginning of Kieran’s evolution into an entity lauded as the Legendary Berserker and several more imperious monikers.
 Whether or not this is the same Earth as before or if the events unfold the way Kieran remembers is a mystery he must tackle at each step in his rise to glory.
 The advent of an unstoppable force is upon us, and the journey to becoming the Legendary Berserker begins!
