Synopsis

The chapter opens with the Gaon guild facing a stock crisis caused by the Mythology guild's fabricated rumors, which accuse their guildmaster of chasing after the Mythology guildmaster. This misinformation appears intended to force Gaon into sharing the Yusra Reconstruction quest. Meanwhile, the protagonist, Lee Hoyeol, is bombarded by high mages after being named a joint researcher, and expresses irritation over the video of his exploits going viral and other characters' unwanted assumptions. The chapter also hints at a deeper control or possession mechanic affecting characters.
