Hanjun listened to Thordan and looked at him with deep, unhappy eyes.

Luckily, Thordan didn't mind at all and continued speaking under Hanjun's sharp gaze. "Alright, as long as we follow my script, we'll definitely attract more fans."

"Script?"

Hanjun sounded confused.

Was there really a script involved?

Thordan nodded as if it was obvious, "Of course! I didn't just make you do all this to show off your looks. There's a story in this too."

Act in front of everyone?

Hanjun felt he couldn't keep going and even thought about quitting on the spot.

But Thordan hadn't finished talking, and every word hit a sore spot for Hanjun, "The script is about the God of Light summoning heroes to save the world. The Church of Light has done so many things, but many people still don't know what really happened. That's why we need to use this chance to spread the Church's name, so we can attract more believers."

What Thordan said seemed to make sense.

In the technologically undeveloped land like eorera, most of the news was spread by word of mouth, and there weren't many entertainment activities.

Using this performance to promote the Church of Light was actually a good idea.

For the people of eorera, coming up with this method was similar to what modern people on Earth might think of.

Hanjun's anger quickly faded after Thordan's explanation.

He began to think about whether this plan could work and whether it was necessary for him, as the Holy Son of the Church of Light, to play this role.

Noticing what Hanjun was considering, Thordan pressed on, "In this situation, only the Holy Son of the Church of Light can step up and show the people the greatness of the Church. They need to believe you are the true image of the God of Light on earth, and that you have the power to save them and this world. So, it has to be you!"

With Thordan's repeated explanation, Hanjun finally understood.

It seemed he really had no choice but to go along with this act.

After all, if it was to gain more followers, it wouldn't hurt to just play along a little.

Hanjun comforted himself with this thought and, in the end, he finally agreed.

The players looked at each other, then glanced back at Thordan, and cheered with surprise and excitement.

They finally got Hanjun to agree to the plan, and from then on, everything became much easier.

What happened next, Hanjun didn't want to remember a second time.

In his memory, only two words remained: "social death."

To act as himself and then accept all the praise from others was not something a normal person could tolerate.

Hanjun wasn't that vain, so he decided to erase the day's memories from his mind.

But he never thought that, after this event, the game company would upload a video of this scene on their official account.

Due to Hanjun's outfit and stunning appearance, the video quickly became more popular than the original promotional video and became the most-watched video on their account.

All the comments in the video praised Hanjun's beauty, with many people admiring the Church of Light, saying that both the God of Light and the Holy Son had unique looks.

It seemed like the best job class for people who love good-looking characters was the priest.

When Hanjun found out, he took the video to Kim Jung-hyun, who managed the account, and asked him what was going on.

Kim Jung-hyun was puzzled and said, "Isn't this the video you asked me to upload to the account, boss? So, I uploaded it."

Hanjun forced a smile and replied, "When did I ever ask you to upload this video?"

For the first time, Kim Jung-hyun felt the pressure coming from Hanjun.

No wonder he was the boss; he had such a strong presence at such a young age.

"Well, this video was on my computer this morning, and the file name said to upload it, so I thought you had sent it to me on purpose..."

Under Hanjun's gaze, Kim Jung-hyun paused.

Hanjun took a deep breath, realizing that this matter had nothing to do with Kim Jung-hyun.

Even though the video was uploaded by him, he did it based on "Hanjun's" instructions.

The only one who could have accessed the video, besides the system's Ragdoll Cat, was no one else.

Seeing the worried look on Kim Jung-hyun's face, thinking he had done something wrong, Hanjun reassured him, "I know what happened now. It was the person who handled the system that sent the video to you as a prank. This isn't your fault."

But even after hearing the full story, Kim Jung-hyun still felt a bit regretful.

Actually, it did have a bit to do with him.

If Kim Jung-hyun had been a little more suspicious when he saw the video and confirmed it with Hanjun, this mistake might not have happened.

Thinking about it, Kim Jung-hyun felt ashamed and lowered his head.

The company's relaxed rules had made him less careful, which led to this situation.

Hanjun said, "Since it's already been posted and the audience's reaction is good, let's just pretend nothing happened. Don't worry about it."

After thinking it over, Hanjun guessed that the Ragdoll Cat probably believed the video would help attract new players, keep the game popular, and promote it, which is why it did this.

However, since the Ragdoll Cat recently developed self-awareness and started playing tricks on its owner, Hanjun felt it was necessary to show the cat the consequences of not listening to its master.

Still, the outcome of this mission was pretty great.

Thanks to the "official push," the voting on the forums brought Hanjun a lot of popularity, making him the most popular NPC there and even getting him trending.

People who didn't know about the game <<God's Games Online>> were all asking, "Who is this person?" "What game is this, and where can I see him?" and so on.
