— [Gasp!]
— [He really went for that spot!!]
— [Even Satan would flinch!!]
— [???: Okay, even I’m a little…;;]
It was the kind of attack that even Satan might slap his knee at before shaking his head in disbelief.
— [Aaaah! H-He went for… that place…]
— [He got pierced from below…]
— [Press X to pay respects…….]
— [That’s just overkill……..]
The viewers were horrified at the sight.
It was far too gruesome.
How could a human do something like that?
The orc had been pierced from below while still alive.
It was terrifying beyond belief!
Sure, it was a monster—but somehow, the orc seemed… pitiful.
“Locked in place. Go straight for the next hit!”
But Exitra didn’t hesitate and moved right on to the next action.
“Attack!”
Exitra immediately issued a command to the Gnome.
One sharp stone spike pinned the orc in place, preventing it from escaping.
Then another gnome drove a similar spike through the orc’s body.
The force behind it was overwhelming.
[Gwaaaahhh…]
The orc, impaled through its body, struggled violently before collapsing, limp and lifeless.
[Achievement Unlocked: Boar Hunter]
[Achievement Unlocked: Spirit Mage–Style Enema Technique]
[Achievement Unlocked: Backstab Basics!]
A series of achievements had been unlocked.
But… the names of the achievements were a little strange.
— [Spirit Mage Enema Technique, lol]
— [You’d die if you got hit by that, minimum, right? lolol]
— [‘Backstab Basics’—what even is that? lolol]
— [No, this is just too much! WTF!]
***
The chat exploded once more.
No one had imagined those kinds of achievements would exist.
Then again—’who in their right mind would ever think of killing an orc that way?’
Probably no one.
Looking down at the dead orc, Exitra commented emotionlessly:
“It was weaker than I thought. I guess I didn’t need to set any traps in case it ran.”
Exitra stood up from his spot.
He had taken down the orc with almost no effort.
If there had been multiple, it might’ve been a different story—but with just one, he could take it down by pouring all his spirit power into it.
— [Orc sobs…]
— [I can’t believe it died like that……..]
— [Why do I feel bad for the orc?;;;]
— [Holy crap, Spirit Mage is busted. What is this??]
— [Taking down an orc like that this early?? That’s nuts, lol]
The viewers were shocked.
And their perspective began to shift.
They had thought Spirit Mage was a trash class.
But now, they were seeing a completely different side.
It could become completely OP depending on the user’s skill.
[User Butcher has donated 50,000 won.]
<Orc, I’m sorry on behalf of humanity……>
Nobody had believed it was possible.
The early-game orc was infamous.
It had high health, high physical defense, and even high magic resistance.
It was considered a disaster for anyone just starting the game, especially during their first ‘Molga Run.’
Even magic-user classes with good offensive stats had to rely on hit-and-run tactics to barely take one down.
But Exitra had killed one with a single Spirit Mage attack.
It was incredible.
— [That’s insane!]
— [Spirit Mage is freaking amazing.]
— [Totally broken class.]
— [I’m switching to Spirit Mage right now.]
“Alright, then…”
Exitra turned his gaze to the boar.
Maybe because it had just watched an orc—far stronger than itself—get killed right in front of it, the boar had completely frozen up.
— [Qu-Quiek… it whimpered.]
— [That boar is kinda cute, lolol]
— [Look at it freeze! It’s terrified.]
— [Aww, that chubby little thing reminds me of someone, lolol]
— [Honestly, can’t blame it. I’d be terrified too if I saw an orc get impaled like that.]
— [Ox]
Since the mission was over, Exitra summoned Undine into the air and cleanly decapitated the boar.
Just because it was water didn’t mean it was weak.
High-pressure water could pierce even metal plates.
So a boar’s neck was no issue.
“Let’s wrap up and head back.”
— [Don’t forget to take the orc corpse.]
— [Yeah, you can sell that for money.]
— [Really useful in the early game.]
You could sell the orc’s body to merchants if you dismantled it properly, so it was best to take it with you.
Exitra used his Gnome to manipulate the earth and move both the orc and the boar’s corpses.
Spirit Mage.
Exploration, hunting, transport—
It might seem like a trash class to others, but for Exitra, it was absolutely perfect.

“Huff, huff… T-That should do it, right?”
Alfredo wiped the blood splattered across his face.
An orc lay collapsed in front of him.
He’d been lucky to come across a boar, but a hungry orc had suddenly shown up.
It was hard to understand why there would be an orc in a place like this.
Still, although it took some time, he had managed to take it down.
“Whew…”
But his condition wasn’t great.
His arm throbbed—clearly not in good shape.
‘Did it fracture? If I had made one wrong move, it wouldn’t have been a crack—it would’ve snapped…’
He had let his guard down for just a second and almost paid dearly for it.
Fortunately, he had managed to hit the orc’s vital spot.
And he even got the boar, too.
‘The problem now is…’
Alfredo looked at the fallen orc and boar with a troubled expression.
“…How do I carry these things back?”
[Sudden Quest ‘Starving Villagers’ has been cleared.]
[You have earned 5 points.]
After completing the quest, Exitra gained some points.
He immediately allocated them to Spirit Power and closed his status window.
“Meat!”
“Whoa, is that an orc?”
“Orc habitats should be far from here…”
“Maybe it got separated from its group?”
“Forget that—two wild boars? Hah, it’s a feast today!”
At the center of the territory, villagers were gathering.
Two orc corpses and two wild boar corpses were laid out side by side.
Children ran around the area, laughing with joy at the rare chance to eat meat.
Smiles bloomed on everyone’s faces.
Well—everyone except one.
“You took down an orc too, didn’t you, Hyung?”
“Yeah. But you got one as well, huh?”
Alfredo looked visibly frustrated.
He glanced over Exitra’s condition—there wasn’t a single stain or scratch on him.
‘Meanwhile, I’m covered in dirt and bruises…’
But Exitra looked completely fine.
That only meant he had enough composure to stay clean.
Alfredo couldn’t hide his resentment.
“Damn it!”
He kicked the dead orc in front of him in frustration.
“Wait, are you hurt?”
Exitra looked at Alfredo’s arm.
It was red and swollen.
“Don’t worry about it!”
“How can I not? You’re my little brother.”
Exitra summoned Undine and treated Alfredo’s arm.
It wasn’t a perfect recovery—without a proper healing skill, it was just first aid.
“That was unnecessary! I don’t need your help!”
Alfredo snapped irritably, then stormed back to the lord’s castle.
— [Wow, what a personality.]
— [They weren’t kidding when they said he was a toxic character.]
— [Seriously? He gets treated and still acts like that?]
— [Someone slap that guy upside the head. Hard.]
“Well, I guess I’ve got one temperamental little brother.”
Exitra shrugged lightly.
He might be a bit prickly now, but he could be tamed.
Others might not see it yet, but the first step had gone smoothly.
“Lord Exitra! Thank you so much!”
“Two wild boars… I can’t believe it…”
“Ah, one of them was actually taken down by Alfredo.”
“Oh, Alfredo did? I wanted to thank him personally…”
“He already went inside. You can thank him later.”
“Understood.”
Exitra turned to Ray.
“Ray.”
“Yes?”
“Can you butcher the wild boars?”
“Yes, I was trained for it.”
“Then butcher them and divide the meat among the villagers. As for the orc corpses, store them in the warehouse—we’ll sell those later.”
“Got it.”
With a satisfied smile, Exitra said, “Alright, that’s it for today’s stream. Great job, everyone~!”
‘Molgahub’ was still one of the most popular games out there.
No one had reached the end of the game yet.
The reason was simple—its scale was massive.
The story changed depending on your chosen traits.
Random quests appeared along the way.
The world reacted to your decisions.
According to the developers, it would take over a year to see the ending.
That’s how much content was packed into the game.
As a result, many streamers had taken on the challenge of beating it.
Mihuku was one of them.
“Whew, this is tough.”
Streamer Mihuku was currently playing ‘Molgahub.’
His chosen trait was ‘Swordsman.’
Most players picked that trait because it was safe and beginner-friendly.
But Mihuku was different.
There was only one reason he picked Swordsman—
Because he loved swords.
He started playing ‘Molgahub’ simply because the swords in it looked incredible.
“Heh heh… Everyone, do you see this? This sword!”
Mihuku held up a blade, and his viewers immediately looked exasperated.
— [Oh no, not again…]
— [Please, stop! My life points are at zero!]
— [Can’t we just play the game today??]
“You guys just don’t understand this sword! It’s a bastard sword—used in Western Europe during the 15th and 16th centuries. Length ranged from 115 to 140 cm, and the weight was around 2.5 to 3 kg…”
— [He’s started again.]
— [Here comes the lecture…]
— [Who cares, you sword nerd! He’s giggling to himself again!]
— [He’s a sword otaku. Please make it stop!]
— [I came to watch gameplay, not a history lesson!]
“Why can’t you appreciate it? Look at it—how cool is this thing?! Haaaah…”
Mihuku had a borderline obsessive personality.
Calling him a sword maniac wasn’t even an exaggeration.
Whenever a sword-related collection quest popped up, he’d drop everything else to do it.
Even in other games, he always played sword-based classes like Warrior or Knight.
Why?
Because in real life, he couldn’t collect swords.
But in games, he could obtain them without breaking any laws.
He once played an FPS game, but instead of using guns, he only used knives—specifically Gurkhas and Kukris.
He was the real deal.
A hommouno.
“Call me a sword otaku if you want—I won’t deny it. Why? Because it’s true!”
— [Wow.]
— [He’s so shameless.]
“And I believe in you all. Before long, you’ll fall in love with swords just like I did!”
— [Please, no…]
— [I’m normal…]
— [Don’t try to convert me into your weird cult!]
“Ahahahaha!!”
Mihuku grinned and sheathed his sword.
His castle’s storage contained no other weapons—only swords.
On top of that, his domain had ten blacksmith shops built, all dedicated to sword-making.
Calling him insane wasn’t an overstatement.
“Hmm~ What should I craft tomorrow~?”
Mihuku chuckled gleefully.
His viewers, used to this by now, just sighed and spammed one word in chat:
—[Ndss]
[A donation of ₩5,000 has been made by BalladBard.]
<Hey Mihuku, take a look at this.>
“Hmm?”
Mihuku clicked on the donation video.
It showed someone on screen.
“Wait, isn’t that Exitra?!”
