Chapter 972: Urgent Meeting
Villain Ch 972. Urgent Meeting
Allen arrived at the platform where the auction NPC stood. As always, the area was bustling with players, all eager to buy, sell, or check the status of their own auctions. But Allen moved through the crowd. He quickly accessed the auction interface, his fingers flying over the holographic menu as he navigated to his listings.
The three bizarre items he had placed up for auction were displayed on the screen. He had expected some curiosity, perhaps a bid or two from players who didn’t know any better, but what he saw made him pause. There were more than three bids on each item. The prices weren’t astronomical, but they were comfortably above what he would have gotten by selling the items directly to the NPC.
It was more than he had anticipated, and it would certainly add a few coins to his coffers. However, one item stood out.
The spider queen’s womb had garnered the most attention, with ten bids. The price had climbed steadily, significantly surpassing the initial amount he had set. Allen couldn’t help but cringe internally, though outwardly he maintained his calm, composed demeanor.
’I can’t imagine the winner’s reaction when they find out that the item is useless and can’t be used for anything,’ he thought, shaking his head slightly.
The item was a trap, something designed to look valuable but ultimately serving no purpose beyond being sold for a modest sum to NPCs. He could only hope that when the winner realized this, they wouldn’t direct their frustration at him. After all, this was a game, and the auction house was always a bit of a gamble.
Having checked the bids on his own items, Allen moved on to browsing the offers posted by other players. As expected, there were always those in desperate need of quick cash for hunting or upgrading their gear, willing to sell items below market value. His eyes scanned the listings, searching for anything he could use.
Within minutes, he found what he was looking for—upgrade stones being sold at a discount. Without hesitation, he purchased them, immediately transferring them to his inventory. It wasn’t much, but every little bit helped in maintaining his status as the Devil Emperor, especially with the relentless pressure to stay ahead of other high-level players.
Once his business was concluded, Allen stepped back from the auction platform. The Discourd server and the petitions were still on his mind, pulling at his curiosity. He needed to investigate this further, to understand the full scope of what was happening.
His brow furrowed as he began to read.

Subject: Urgent: Update Regarding Recent In-Game Activity
Dear Mr. Allen,
We wanted to reach out to you regarding some recent developments in the Hell’s Gate world, particularly concerning your in-game character, the Devil Emperor. Over the past week, there has been a significant increase in player engagement related to your character.
Specifically, we have noticed a dramatic spike in social media interactions, fan content creation, and, notably, the circulation of a petition within the community. This petition, as you may be aware, is calling for the Devil Emperor to be made a romanceable character within Hell’s Gate.
While we understand the appeal of such a feature to certain segments of the player base, we must consider the broader implications for game balance, narrative coherence, and player experience.
We have been monitoring the discussions surrounding this petition on various social media platforms and fan forums. The level of engagement is unprecedented, and the demand is far higher than initially anticipated. However, implementing such a feature would require significant changes to the game’s narrative and character interactions.
Furthermore, it could potentially disrupt the established balance between the game’s hero and villain dynamics.
In light of the overwhelming response and the complexities involved, we would like to have an urgent online meeting this evening at 5 PM to discuss the potential implications and feasibility of incorporating the requested features. Your input is crucial, given your unique position and insights into both the game’s mechanics and its narrative direction.
