Subscriber of the Gods Chapter 47 - Subscriber everyone wishes for

Author: Dawn

-Now you have become a celebrity in the [New World]. Take a look at your mailbox. I’m sure there will be quite a lot of letters. Many gods were amazed after seeing your subscription review videos. So, everyone is hoping that you will subscribe to them now. More precisely, they hope you will write a subscription review for them. Those prestigious gods, haha.

Heo Jun informed Ethan that there was a ranking chart in the [New World].

-I wasn’t even registered in the rankings. I was at the very bottom. But thanks to your subscription review, I was able to enter the rankings. With just one subscription review, numerous [New World] subscribers started subscribing to me. It’s truly remarkable.

Heo Jun continued to smile.

“Could it be that my subscription review video, which is just ordinary, gained him so many subscribers and likes?”

Of course, he had always been good at writing reviews. He had received prizes and various gifts for writing reviews.

However, that was simply because he wrote the reviews cleverly. It was impossible to know whether people actually bought the products because of his reviews.

‘It was probably just for marketing purposes. Could it be that it actually had such an effect?’

Come to think of it, among the subscription reviews Ethan had seen, many were filled with a few words or short videos.

‘[New World] users must be different from everyone else.’

There was a possibility that the tide had turned with just one subscription review.

Ethan decided to open his mailbox as Heo Jun had suggested.

Come to think of it, the mailbox had sparkled when he first opened the [New World].

“Crazy.”

There were an astonishing number of letters.

The letters were written in the names of numerous gods.

Including Ares, who had sent a letter before, several gods were urging Ethan to write a subscription review for them.

-Athena, the Goddess of War: Nickname [Only Subscribed to the Right Gods]. I have thoroughly seen your subscription review. It was truly impressive…

Athena’s letter was quite long.

In summary, it praised Ethan’s subscription review as exceptionally excellent.

-I have a suggestion. Would you consider subscribing to me? If you write a subscription review, I will provide videos specifically for you. And I will also share the likes!

The letter seemed to imply that she was offering something grand.

Considering what I’m offering, you will naturally subscribe to me, right?

That sentiment was clearly conveyed.

“Hmm.”

Reading through other letters, it was the same.

“There aren’t many helpful gods. They aren’t gods worth subscribing to right away. Besides, they’re so arrogant, it’s unfortunate.”

Nevertheless, through the letters, Ethan learned about various systems in [New World].

‘There are exclusive videos for subscribers.’

Moreover, the gods could share likes with [New World] users. However, it didn’t seem like they could share likes freely.

‘If you write good subscription reviews, the gods can select them as the best subscription reviews.’

Those selected subscription reviews seemed to be eligible for receiving likes from other gods.

‘That means this.’

Currently, Ethan was receiving numerous love calls from various gods. In other words, Ethan had the lead completely.

‘I don’t have a reason to comply with their requests, do I?’

Ethan realized that he held the power of using the gods’ desired subscription reviews as leverage.

Ethan smiled faintly.

“I don’t need to act desperate.”

He could continue subscribing to the desired gods and use the subscription review videos as a means to gather likes.

“I’m no rush in getting likes. I can obtain them with my knowledge in MePan if need be. What matters more is what abilities I acquire. Like the premium subscriber video provided by Heo Jun. Having unique abilities that only I can possess is what’s important.”

After going through the letters, Ethan set them aside for now.

“I should finish watching the videos.”

It was time to gain skills through the premium subscriber video provided by Heo Jun.

-Heo’s Acupuncture has been enhanced!

After watching the Acupuncture Enhancement video, Ethan’s Heo’s Acupuncture was further strengthened.

Originally, Heo’s Acupuncture was a skill for healing and recovery. It involved creating multiple needles and accurately inserting them into specific points or using them like a sword for stabbing. However, it was primarily a healing technique.

Ethan would use Heo’s Acupuncture on his body every day to aid in his recovery.

The video, however, revealed how Heo’s Acupuncture could be used for offensive purposes.

-The Five Elements Acupuncture Technique has been added to Heo’s Acupuncture.

[Five Elements Acupuncture Technique]

[Insert the needle into the acupuncture points. Stimulate them to draw out strength. The effect varies depending on the points targeted by the needle.]

“It’s a technique to strengthen the body by inserting the needle into the desired acupuncture point.”

If Heo’s Decoction was a healing-based skill for treating abnormalities, then Heo’s Acupuncture became a buffing skill that provided buffs.

“Both skills can fundamentally be used for healing. Heo Jun’s skills are primarily in the healing category.”

But this time, additional abilities were bestowed upon it.

Ethan created several needles. He could currently create up to ten needles, which meant he could reinforce ten different parts of his body.

“If I insert it into the waist…”

-Your body is strengthened!

Instantly, his body felt heavier, enabling him to withstand powerful attacks.

“And the arms…”

When inserted into the arms, they became stronger.

The legs became stronger when inserted there. However, the most important part was the head.

“Improved eyesight, huh?”

His vision had improved to the point where the expression “clear as day” was a perfect fit.

-Three minutes have passed.

-The effect of the Five Elements Acupuncture Technique wears off.

“Three minutes, huh.”

Ethan confirmed whether he could use the Five Elements Acupuncture consecutively.

When he inserted the needle in the same way as before, the same effect occurred.

However, there was one difference.

-Stamina decreases.

“So, this is the penalty.”

While he could use it consecutively, his stamina decreased. It was a noticeable drop in stamina, to the point where it could be felt instantly.

“I need to be cautious when using it.”

Still, the upgraded effect of acupuncture was a great thing.

‘Now, there will be more dangerous situations.’

Once he joined the Academy, he would inevitably be involved in the main events.

The main events were typically high-difficulty quests that also greatly increased one’s fame.

“Can only I use this?”

Ethan immediately called Yerica and Schudlen.

Schudlen had been fully immersed in training lately. He felt a great blow to his pride when he couldn’t be of much help when he went out with Ethan.

“Did you call for me, Young Master?”

“You called?”

Schudlen, whom Ethan hadn’t seen in a while, felt physically stronger in a short period of time.

On the other hand, Yerica looked quite tired.

“I have something I want to test.”

Ethan created needles.

“……!”

“Are you going to stab us with those?”

They had seen Ethan stab himself with needles multiple times while he was wandering around.

They had no idea what he was doing, but since Ethan said it was good for them, they couldn’t refuse.

“It’s good for your health.”

“I’m already healthy, though.”

“It’s good for your health, but it’s even better now. I gained some new skills. When I get pricked with the needle, my strength increases.”

Upon hearing that they could become stronger, Schudlen stepped forward without hesitation.

“Please insert them as you wish!”

In response, Ethan inserted needles into Schudlen’s arms, lower back, and legs consecutively.

-The Five Elements Acupuncture Technique has been activated.

Sshhhaaahhh!

Mana flowed out of Schudlen’s body in an instant.

It was a substantial amount of mana, visible to the naked eye.

“I’m overflowing with power! Ooooh!”

Even Schudlen felt incredibly light, to the point of astonishment.

Moreover, the needles had disappeared without a trace.

“Great, it worked.”

It seemed that the Five Elements Acupuncture Technique could be used not only on himself but also on others.

‘That means the penalties should be the same. It can be utilized in various ways.’

Now it was time for the final attempt.

“Schudlen.”

“Yes.”

“It may be a bit risky, but will you trust me and follow along?”

Upon hearing Ethan’s words, Schudlen nodded without hesitation.

“I will follow.”

‘He has truly become my person.’

Satisfied, Ethan inserted needles consecutively into Schudlen’s arm.

‘If I insert the needles consecutively, I can determine if the enhancement can stack… If it does stack…’

As the proficiency of Heo’s Acupuncture skill increased, the number of needles that could be used also increased. Therefore, the effect of the Five Elements Acupuncture Technique would also improve.

Thuk. Thuk. Thuk.

As Ethan inserted the needles in succession, Schudlen’s expression became slightly strained.

“Young Master, it feels like the power is overwhelming my arm. Ugh.”

Schudlen groaned in discomfort.

Ethan pondered for a moment before asking.

“I inserted five needles this time. Schudlen, does it feel different from before?”

“Yes, it feels hot. With this, I feel like I can break anything.”

Ethan turned his head to Yerica.

She immediately understood his intention and nodded.

“I also felt a momentary burst of mana.”

“Alright, then. Schudlen, swing the sword. Aim for the ground if possible.”

“Uuugh-!”

With overflowing strength, Schudlen drew the sword at his waist and swung it down towards the ground.

Kkaang-!

“Wow.”

Yerica exclaimed in awe.

It was the result of just a few needles.

‘Amazing.’

Ethan hadn’t expected the effect to be so significant, surpassing mere stacking.

“Heok, heok. This is incredible, Young Master. But the recoil is also significant.”

Schudlen held his right shoulder and spoke.

Ethan placed another needle on his shoulder, but this time it was for healing rather than strengthening.

“Ohh, it’s definitely the same needle, but the effect is completely different. The pain has completely disappeared!”

Schudlen’s eyes widened in surprise.

He had never expected Ethan’s acupuncture skills to be this remarkable.

Being able to freely use recovery and strengthening.

“You’re like a mage.”

“Please watch your words, Sir Knight.”

“Yes? O-oh! I apologize. I didn’t mean to belittle magic… “

A flustered Schudlen waved his hand, trying to clarify his words.

“But Ethan, you’re truly amazing. It’s not just being a mage, but rather…”

“It feels more like a priest.”

“Exactly, it’s the feeling of a devoted priest. Even though you don’t believe in gods…”

“Well, I do believe in gods.”

ETHAN laughed and replied.

“What god do you believe in?”

“For now, there are three.”

Yerica glanced at Ethan for a moment.

She felt like she’d been played again.

“Anyway! It’s clear that your acupuncture skills have improved from before, Ethan.”

“Thank you you two for enduring it, and please continue to support me in the future.”

“Yes?”

Yerica was momentarily taken aback.

“Did you do that to confirm that it doesn’t hurt?”

As Ethan spoke, there were needles in his hand again.

Ethan had a faint smile on his face.

“I’ll count on you from now on.”

“Haste.”

Yerica cast an acceleration spell and quickly fled the scene.
