The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player - Chapter 215: The Rune of the Hero (1)

A week before Christmas.

An incredible post appeared on the Player Haven forum.

Title: [Advertisement] Join the Reaper Church and Receive 10,000 Points on the Spot!

Content: Hello, I am Old-Man-No-Gay, the leader of the Reaper Church.

First, I would like to express my sincere respect to all the Player Haven family members who have survived up to the 12th round. Truly remarkable!

We are currently recruiting valiant warriors like yourselves to join our Reaper Church.

The Reaper Church is an organization dedicated to serving the Black Scythe, who is ranked number one in all regions. Anyone who loves and admires the Black Scythe, regardless of nationality, can join.

However, the only requirement is that you must be a player and bring identification when you join (you will need to fill out some basic information during registration).

Unlike other religions, we do not charge any membership fees or donations (important)!

In celebration of our new church’s relocation to Seoul, we’re holding a small event.

On December 25th at 10 AM, anyone who joins our church will receive 10,000 points, personally granted by the Black Scythe himself! Don’t miss this opportunity to join, earn points, and meet the Black Scythe in person—an opportunity you won’t want to miss!

Existing members who come will also receive the points on the spot, so please make sure to attend!

Here’s a three-line summary for those who are busy:

◆ Event Date: December 25th, 2022, at 10 AM

◆ Event Content: Join the Reaper Church and receive 10,000 points directly from the Black Scythe (ID required).

◆ Location: Reaper Church, 625 Shinsa-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul

Points are a currency that can be used in the Special Shop.

They are more valuable than gold, as the angel has declared that they cannot be earned by any other means.

And they’re giving away 10,000 points just for joining?

Really?

People drawn by the clickbait title couldn’t resist commenting.

└ Comment: Do you really give 10,000 points just for joining?

└ Reply: Of course! ^_^

└ Comment: Is the famous Black Scythe really going to be there?

└ Reply: Yes! This is your chance to meet him in person!

└ Comment:*Why did you schedule the event on Christmas? Are you trying to ruin relationships?

└ Reply: No such intention. We chose the date because we thought it would be meaningful, like an Easter event. Really.

└ Comment: …What if it’s a scam?

└ Reply: Go ahead and try. Let’s see what happens. Lol

└ Comment: How could you scam people when you have to give your real name and face? Lol

└ Reply: If you try to scam us, the Black Scythe will probably come after you himself…

Over 50 comments were posted, and Heo Tae-seok responded to each one with joy.

He had posted promotional messages before, but this was the first time he received so much interest.

In just two days, the post had over 120 views.

‘There are currently 130 Player Haven members, so almost everyone has read it!’

Considering his previous posts only garnered 20 views, this was an unprecedented record.

‘Will they all come?’

Finally, the long-awaited Christmas day arrived.

Ryu Min and Heo Tae-seok waited for the believers in front of the newly prepared church.

The location was good, so passersby occasionally showed interest.

“How much time is left?”

“It’s 9 AM now, so we have one hour left.”

“We still have some time, so let’s wait patiently.”

However, the players arrived earlier than expected.

“Hello, is this the Reaper Church…?”

“Yes! You’ve come to the right place. I am Old-Man-No-Gay, the leader of the church.”

“T-then, is this person…?”

The man’s gaze shifted to the side.

It was Ryu Min, wearing a white mask, donning extraordinary equipment, and holding a large scythe.

It wasn’t hard to guess who he was.

“I am the Black Scythe.”

“Ah, it’s an honor to meet you.”

As they shook hands lightly, Ryu Min probed the man’s thoughts.

He wanted to discern whether he was a good person or not.

‘He doesn’t seem to have any ill intentions in joining.’

He was a genuine Player Haven member who had come out of admiration for the Black Scythe.

‘Well, most Player Haven members are decent people.’

Since they had passed the character interview, there were no rough edges to be found.

“Hello, I’m Cardinal Eom Jun-seok. I’ll give you your queue number and registration form. Please read it while you wait. When the time comes, we’ll assist you in joining in order.”

They didn’t accept registrations immediately because the appointed time had not yet arrived, but more importantly, they didn’t want people to run away after joining.

‘We can’t have that. We need to gather as many people as possible.’

He hoped for more than 100 people, and that hope was realized sooner than expected.

“Wow, this is the Reaper Church?”

“Awesome! I didn’t expect it to be this huge!”

At some point, people began to flood in.

As the appointed time approached, the crowd grew larger.

‘A goal of 100 people was too easy.’

With 20 minutes left until 10 AM, they had already met their target.

‘At this rate, we might even reach 130.’

It was possible if all Player Haven members, except the chairman, showed up.

“We’ll start assisting with registrations now. Number 1, please come this way…”

The registration process was simple.

You sat down, had your photo taken on the spot, filled out the registration form with your name, date of birth, phone number, and address, and signed an agreement to attend at least one Reaper Church service per month unless you had a genuine excuse.

This was to prevent people from just joining without participating.

Then, you would meet Ryu Min face-to-face to receive your points via the trade function.

“Oh wow, really 10,000 points… Thank you, Black Scythe.”

“Congratulations on joining the Reaper Church. Use your points wisely.”

“Can I go home now?”

“You may, but I recommend staying for the speech. I’ll be sharing some information that you might regret missing.”

There wasn’t much time for long conversations.

There was a long line of people waiting for their turn.
