My Skills Can Evolve Infinitely in a Game-Like World

Even through the screen, Aurelius could imagine TheoryMaster69 standing proudly, her hands raised toward the sky as she uttered these final words.

"Keep Aurelius single forever!" Her voice seemed to ring directly in his mind, reverberating like a shout.

For the second time in a matter of only minutes, Aurelius really wanted to slap this damned woman!

Was this really a goal worth achieving?

Don’t you have anything better to do?

For example, helping Aurelius become a God!

’At the very least, you could have made your goal to find me the most beautiful Player as a wife!’ Aurelius complained.

His anger only deepened further when he looked through the comments right below TheoryMaster69’s post.

"I agree! I agree to this proposal!"

"We can’t have our husband be with another woman! He belongs to all of us! No one can have him alone!"

"TheoryMaster is right! I propose she become the Fan Club Leader! Once we establish a guild in the future, she can directly become our Guild Master!"

Aurelius was not truly angry.

After all, it was not as though he was really planning to find a wife at this point in time. He had far more important matters to deal with, such as the world being destroyed when the Players finally arrived.

If anything, he was mostly confused and speechless.

Speechless at TheoryMaster69’s sudden change in personality. Confused about her purpose.

It was only when he saw the final comment and read through the replies below it that realization dawned on him.

’I see...’ he whispered inwardly, finally grasping why TheoryMaster69 had done this.

Guilds!

This was a term familiar to every MMORPG Player.

Essentially, it was a formal alliance of Players, bound together by interests. Guilds could accept Missions together and share the rewards, as well as enjoy several other benefits.

This feature did not exist in the Nova Roma just yet.

However, from the comments below, Aurelius understood that it would in the near future!

Once the Beta Version ended, and after a small break, Nova Roma would truly be released.

The Guild function would then be activated!

This had been TheoryMaster69’s purpose!

’Does she want to establish a guild under my name? Is this a way to attract capable members and make them serve her subordinates?’

Based on Aurelius’ understanding of this woman, this was most likely her goal.

And judging from the intense reaction to her post, with thousands of female Players asking she accept them, she had already succeeded!

’No!’ Aurelius suddenly shook his head, recalling something.

’Her plan did not start now. I fear that her original purpose in approaching me behind the other Players’ backs was to wait for this day.’

’Then, after reaching the height of her fame by dispelling World_Builder’s accusations, she directly made such a proposal!’

The more Aurelius thought about it, the more he believed that everything eventually made sense.

He couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

It was already difficult enough having to navigate the politics of Nova Roma. The Sol family’s matter weighed heavily in his heart.

Now, the Players themselves were also trying to plot against him?

It took some time until Aurelius relaxed.

He took a deep breath, glancing at TheoryMaster69’s comment with his eyes flashing.

It was clear that this woman had used him to gain some influence among the Players.

However, this could be considered an opportunity for him as well.

After all, their future guild was named the Aurelius Fan Club!

Who was the true central figure?

TheoryMaster69?

No!

It was him, the hidden NPC Aurelius!

Upon this realization, Aurelius relaxed.

Countless plans flashed through his mind. He was already making plans to stage a coup against TheoryMaster69 and make her a mere figurehead.

Had TheoryMaster69 known what he was thinking, she would have been as speechless as Aurelius had been before.

Damn it! Are NPCs also plotting against Players now?

In the end, Aurelius organized his thoughts.

He shook his head, pushing the matter to the back of his mind for the time being.

Then, he continued scrolling through the post, looking either for a familiar name or a post that could catch his interest.

Unfortunately, his search for something valuable yielded little.

Most of the posts were about the trailer’s graphics. Others praised the NPC’s beautiful and handsome appearances.

As for the rest, they were calls to create other Fan Clubs, clearly inspired by TheoryMaster69’s proposal.

Unfortunately, such announcements received little support.

On one hand, the Players making the requests were not as popular as TheoryMaster69.

Even before her recent clash with World_Builder, this woman had been named "Goddess", admired by male and female Players alike.

On the other hand, there was no NPC who could match Aurelius’ level of fame.

No Player had met any of the other three Protagonists.

How could they possibly join their Fan Clubs without receiving any benefits first?

Don’t be fooled by the comments calling everyone their husbands or wives.

Such posts were a loud minority.

For most Players, what mattered was what benefits they would gain from these NPCs. Anyone who didn’t benefit them would fade into obscurity!

Aurelius quickly skimmed through the posts.

It was only thousands of comments later, when he reached the very bottom of the post, that he found another familiar name.

"Guys! Let me clear my name! That demoness TheoryMaster69 is lying!"

"Don’t believe her! She’s trying to manipulate us all!"

"She has truly betrayed us! Doing it for our sake? She’s clearly lying!"

World_Builder’s loud screams nearly echoed in Aurelius’ mind.

For a moment, he couldn’t help but imagine the little fat man writing this passage with tears streaming down his chubby cheeks.

Unfortunately for him, he received little sympathy from the other Players.

"Lying again! Lying again! World_Builder, we’ve already seen through your tricks! Don’t try to slander our Goddess!"

"Fatty! Give up on gaming! Open a DuoFans instead!"

"Ptui~! Rather than waste time like this, you should fight for more Player benefits like our Goddess!"
