["Then…"], Player A suddenly @Region Nine Lord Duma and said, ["Have you ever thought that maybe your level is lower than others'? So you don't have stars, while they do?"]
["How is that possible?"], Region Nine Lord Duma sent three angry emojis in a row and said, ["I'm a mage, a mage officially certified by the Mist World! You're saying my level is low? What the hell do you know?"]
Ethan: [Image]
[Caption: "Is Lord Duma talking about this low-level mage badge? I do have one too, but this is just a mage apprentice badge, so it doesn't have any stars. I felt it was a bit embarrassing, so I didn't wear it out to make a fool of myself."]
Only then did everyone open the image and take a look. The picture inside really was exactly the same as the mage badge in Region Nine Lord Duma's hand.
And to make sure everyone knew this wasn't some fake, Ethan even deliberately posted the information of both badges so everyone could tell real from fake.
[Mage Apprentice Badge: This is just a badge used to confirm a mage's identity, a certification issued by the Mage Guild. It isn't worth much.]
[Mage Badge: When you become a true mage, a star will appear on your badge, representing your mage level (up to five stars). This is a certification issued by the Mage Guild. It's worth a little money, and in the main city it can grant certain special privileges as well as access to the first floor of the Mage Guild's library.]
When the information for both items appeared in the world channel, Region Nine Lord Duma finally shut up for real.
Everyone knew that information from the magic book absolutely couldn't be faked. Even with some trick, there was no way to blind everyone in the entire world channel at the same time, right?

[Region Nine, Lord's Villa]
"Damn it!!"
Duma flew into a rage, sweeping everything off the table to the floor in one motion as he cursed, "How the hell did Ethan become a real mage! This is impossible!"
"I've run into so many lucky encounters, and I'm still just a mage apprentice!"
"This is already the highest level among all players. How did he become a mage? That brat definitely has a secret, he must be cheating!"
"Fack you, Ethan!"
Duma's roar made all the residents in the villa tremble in fear.
The two maids he had abused for a long time immediately knelt and pressed themselves to the ground, afraid that if they displeased Duma even a little, they would become his outlet.
"You, crawl over here!"
But Duma had no intention of letting the two maids off. He had lost face in the world channel, and now he wanted to get it back from his people.
He grabbed one maid by the hair and dragged her up by force, saying, "Answer me! Am I not impressive?"
"I-impressive, Lord… you're the most impressive… ah!"
The maid answered Duma's question in a trembling voice.
But the fear in her eyes still dissatisfied Duma. He kicked her to the ground and shouted, "Then why did you hesitate? Do you think I'm useless, that I'm useless both in magic and in bed."
BANG!
Duma kicked the maid over and cursed, "You look down on me too, don't you?"
[Citizen Loyalty -10]
[Warning: Citizen loyalty below 50!]
"Oh? You even dare to drop loyalty on me!"
After receiving the prompt from the magic book, Duma became even more furious out of embarrassment. He stepped forward and beat the maid, then pinned her onto the table and vented fiercely before finally suppressing the anger in his heart.
But after such abuse, the citizen's loyalty naturally dropped sharply.
[Warning: Citizen loyalty below 20, the citizen may rebel!]
"Wuu~"
The maid clutched her torn skirt and cried miserably.
After bullying the maid, Duma finally began to calm down.
Seeing that her loyalty had dropped to only 15 percent, he didn't panic at all. He simply recited a long incantation toward her, and the spell landed on the maid.
Her eyes immediately became a bit numb, and then her loyalty jumped back to fifty in an instant.
As if nothing had happened at all, Duma then stepped forward, patted the maid on the back, and smiled as he comforted her, "You just fell. Are you okay?"
"L-Lord…", The maid was startled and quickly replied, "I… I'm fine."
"As long as you're fine. Go back and rest, you don't seem to be in good condition."
"Thank you, Lord. I'll go right away."
The maid was overwhelmed with gratitude.
[Citizen Loyalty +5]
As this maid left, the other maid trembled even more violently.
At this moment, Duma noticed her loyalty had also dropped for a time. Naturally, he could tell she was afraid of him, but he didn't care.
He liked the way maids trembled. That was the only way he could feel powerful.
Anyway, when these maids' loyalty dropped below 50, he only needed a single spell to make them forget his abuse, then reset everything back to the starting point.
At that time, with just one or two comforting words, he could immediately make these maids feel grateful and raise their loyalty again.
In his hands, this loyalty was practically inexhaustible.
"Hahaha…"

[World Channel]
At this moment, since Ethan had promised to let everyone watch the unboxing video, he naturally couldn't go back on his word.
Of course, the key point was still the rapidly surging admiration points.
Ethan had just opened one platinum treasure chest, and his admiration points had already skyrocketed to [156000/500000].
Sure enough, when it came to earning admiration points, the world channel was still the most reliable.
There were a lot of people.
As long as you casually did something, you could earn over a hundred thousand admiration points.
Since everyone was gathered now, Ethan naturally wouldn't miss such a good opportunity to harvest benefits. He continued taking out the items from the platinum treasure chest one by one and showing them to everyone.
