So it's still around? 08:20.270 --> 08:22.480 I know where I'm headed next! 08:26.570 --> 08:28.450 Exgate Online. 08:28.530 --> 08:31.740 An online fantasy game about swords and sorcery, 08:31.820 --> 08:33.780 set in the parallel world of Mizgarz. 08:33.870 --> 08:37.370 The draw of the game was its "War" system. 08:37.460 --> 08:42.040 WAR SYSTEM - Different nations engaged in PvP combat. 08:42.130 --> 08:46.420 The winners conquered the losing nation. 08:46.510 --> 08:49.550 Another one of its draws was its "Novel" system. 08:49.630 --> 08:52.720 It was a system that adapted players' in-game actions 08:52.800 --> 08:56.680 into a story that was published as its official history. 08:56.770 --> 08:59.730 I made Lufas the strongest character I possibly could. 08:59.810 --> 09:04.020 I raised her level, spent money on items, and maintained my position as the game's top player. 09:04.110 --> 09:05.360 And then... 09:07.030 --> 09:11.070 I finally managed to unify Mizgarz for the first time in the game's history, 09:11.530 --> 09:14.660 and that was given the grand treatment by the Novel system. 09:14.740 --> 09:17.790 She even became a semi-official character in the game. 09:18.330 --> 09:22.120 However, an era with a single, powerful ruler doesn't make for a very fun game. 09:22.500 --> 09:25.960 So I negotiated with the other high-level players 09:26.340 --> 09:28.300 to split our forces into the Conqueror's Army led by Lufas 09:28.380 --> 09:31.130 and the Army of Light led by the "Heroes," 09:31.220 --> 09:32.970 and we conducted a War. 09:33.590 --> 09:37.140 We held the greatest battle in the history of the game, 09:37.220 --> 09:39.180 completely ignoring the official final boss! 09:39.850 --> 09:42.440 Then I—err, Lufas, rather—lost, 09:42.520 --> 09:44.940 and got sealed away in subspace. 09:48.320 --> 09:51.740 Never thought I'd actually get to come here to my— 09:51.820 --> 09:56.070 THE SKY TOWER OF MAPHAAHL - No, to our base, the Sky Tower of Maphaahl. 10:05.500 --> 10:06.540 Hmm? 10:13.880 --> 10:16.350 Of course it's seen decline. 10:16.430 --> 10:18.760 Though the spirit remains. 10:22.680 --> 10:24.270 What an odd feeling. 10:24.350 --> 10:27.900 It's our first time actually seeing it, but it feels nostalgic. 10:34.410 --> 10:37.370 Right. Back then I had my friends with me. 10:37.740 --> 10:40.540 We'd chat about how we were going to expand our forces, 10:40.620 --> 10:42.660 down liquor like fools, and revel in our merriment. 10:46.330 --> 10:48.210 What was that memory just now? 11:06.850 --> 11:08.360 Mistress Lufas! 11:08.440 --> 11:10.480 It's really you, Mistress Lufas Maphaahl! 11:10.860 --> 11:12.110 It's been so long! 11:12.190 --> 11:17.160 I've been waiting for your return for the past two hundred years! 11:18.030 --> 11:20.080 - And you... - Yes! 11:21.030 --> 11:22.080 ...would be? 11:22.160 --> 11:23.370 Gah! 11:23.830 --> 11:27.540 Only those we have permitted to enter should be able to enter this tower. 11:29.000 --> 11:31.920 H-Have you forgotten me? 11:33.670 --> 11:37.260 It's me! Your loyal advisor, Dina! 11:37.340 --> 11:40.140 Advisor? We never... 11:41.310 --> 11:45.680 When I created our base, I placed a young NPC here as part of the backdrop. 11:45.980 --> 11:50.230 I think I remember giving her the odd background of "Lufas's Advisor." 11:51.190 --> 11:53.650 So a background NPC gained self-awareness 11:53.730 --> 11:55.400 and waited for me? 11:55.490 --> 11:58.950 Is this... not the game world? 12:00.700 --> 12:02.450 Forgive us, Dina. 12:02.530 --> 12:06.910 Something must be wrong with us to forget about one as loyal as you. 12:07.500 --> 12:08.790 You have served us well. 12:08.870 --> 12:12.790 Good work protecting this tower during our absence. 12:12.880 --> 12:15.380 Y-You honor me with your words! 12:21.050 --> 12:25.970 ...and so, we were summoned from subspace and able to return. 12:26.060 --> 12:27.730 So that's how. 12:27.810 --> 12:31.770 Those humans who summoned you must have been quite shocked. 12:31.810 --> 12:34.400 Shocked would be putting it mildly. 12:34.480 --> 12:36.440 I don't blame them. 12:36.530 --> 12:39.860 The nation to the west? That would be Laevateinn. 12:39.950 --> 12:43.660 They've been preparing the Hero Summoning for a while now. 12:44.030 --> 12:48.290 Dina. Could you inform us of what has occurred since we departed? 12:48.370 --> 12:49.330 Yes! 12:49.410 --> 12:53.290 First of all, the loathsome Heroes that defeated you... 12:54.250 --> 12:56.840 they later became known as the Seven Heroes, 12:56.920 --> 12:58.920 and they each founded their own nation. 12:59.220 --> 13:02.340 Four of them have already passed from old age, 13:02.430 --> 13:04.800 and the three with longer lifespans are still alive. 13:05.260 --> 13:07.970 Hmm, the Seven Heroes? 13:08.430 --> 13:12.440 I wonder if they're actually other players like me? 13:12.520 --> 13:14.860 The Devil King remains alive and well. 13:14.940 --> 13:18.940 Though that's because the Devil King crushed the Seven Heroes. 13:19.070 --> 13:21.490 Sheesh, talk about disappointing and useless. 13:21.780 --> 13:22.820 What else? 13:22.910 --> 13:25.450 The Twelve Heavenly Stars are still around. 13:26.200 --> 13:27.290 Oh? 13:27.700 --> 13:32.250 The Twelve Heavenly Stars' proper name was the Conquering Twelve Heavenly Stars. 13:32.330 --> 13:34.880 They were what you would call companion monster NPCs. 13:35.840 --> 13:40.300 I was lucky to recruit several rare monsters that were difficult to obtain, 13:40.380 --> 13:42.130 and I granted the title of Twelve Heavenly Stars 13:42.220 --> 13:45.100 to the ones that were especially powerful. 13:45.430 --> 13:48.390 There was a time when I thought that a major boss 13:48.470 --> 13:52.060 should have something like the classic "four elite generals" serving them. 13:52.600 --> 13:54.060 How are they all faring? 13:54.150 --> 13:56.400 I know the whereabouts of six. 13:56.480 --> 14:02.030 Two of them joined the Devil King's army to seek vengeance on the humans who defeated you. 14:02.110 --> 14:04.320 They joined the Devil King? 14:04.410 --> 14:06.950 Even though our own shame invited that, 14:07.240 --> 14:09.950 that was a terribly disgraceful thing to do. 14:10.080 --> 14:12.460 It seems we need to give them a good reaming out. 14:14.710 --> 14:16.420 Still, this is good. 14:16.500 --> 14:18.090 Now we have a goal. 14:18.170 --> 14:22.760 We were hoping to see the current state of the world for ourselves as well. 14:23.010 --> 14:27.430 I need to verify if the three Heroes are also players like me. 14:27.510 --> 14:28.470 Not to mention... 14:28.560 --> 14:29.560 Dina. 14:30.350 --> 14:33.440 We're now setting out on a journey to gather the Twelve Heavenly Stars. 14:33.770 --> 14:37.820 It's our responsibility to stop those who would act foolishly. 14:39.230 --> 14:40.280 Yes! 14:41.320 --> 14:44.200 The one closest to our current location is here: 14:44.280 --> 14:45.820 Svel. 14:45.910 --> 14:47.830 This is where one of the Seven Heroes, 14:47.910 --> 14:49.450 Megrez, has taken up residence, 14:49.530 --> 14:52.410 and one of the Twelve Heavenly Stars, Aries the Ram, 14:52.500 --> 14:54.040 is located at the base of the nearby volcano. 14:54.120 --> 14:58.540 Aries has been repeatedly trying to invade Svel. 14:58.630 --> 14:59.630 Then it seems... 14:59.960 --> 15:02.340 - we have our destination. - Wait! 15:02.420 --> 15:04.880 - Please wait, Mistress Lufas! - What is it? 15:04.970 --> 15:07.260 Are you planning to go there without making any preparations? 15:07.340 --> 15:09.350 Do you have any money on you? 15:09.430 --> 15:11.140 Do you not have any? 15:11.220 --> 15:15.390 After waiting for you for so long, I've become penniless! 15:16.730 --> 15:18.730 Then we simply must earn the funds. 15:18.810 --> 15:19.770 Right. 15:19.860 --> 15:23.490 However, I must inform you that will be incredibly difficult. 15:23.740 --> 15:26.570 Mistress Lufas, your face is too well-known now. 15:27.410 --> 15:29.280 Over two hundred years have passed. 15:29.370 --> 15:33.080 - There shouldn't be any who remember— - Naive!
