I Made a Game Featuring Constellations - Chapter 53



I’ll Be the Troublemaker

Ring ring ring

Demon King Lucia turned on the large monitor in front of her desk.

Then she opened the community screen window.

If you can’t confront them head-on, you tear them down and destroy them.

It’s a guilty conscience, but there’s no other choice.

How many demon families are involved in this business?

As the era of peace arrived, the demons, who were superior in combat power and combat magic compared to humans, fell into poverty due to their lack of cultural abilities.

It wasn’t much different before, but the culture of the demons, which lagged behind the great culture of humanity that developed day by day, was difficult to attract attention.

During the reign of the current Demon King, she chose a national project to survive, which was the game industry led by Demon King Soft.

At first, there was considerable opposition, but the game created under her direct command boasted considerable quality by the standards of the time.

Through the name Demon King Soft, the games guaranteed by the king of demons were released one after another, representing masterpieces with craftsmanship.

Thus, Demon King Soft, which once swept the game market and achieved great success, stood at a crossroads of crisis.

If Demon King Soft collapses, the demon economy will suffer a huge blow.

There’s no time to be picky.

Even if my hands get dirty.

“For the sake of our race’s well-being…”

This kind of thing could be done as much as needed.

At that moment

Knock, knock

“Eek!”

At the sound of someone knocking on the door, Lucia hurriedly turned off the monitor.

“Your Highness, today’s report!”

It was her secretary.

…Ah, is it that time already?

She hadn’t realized how much time had passed while lurking in the community.

“Oh, come in.”

Hearing her response, the secretary gently opened the door and entered.

“Huh? Your Highness? Did something happen?”

“Huh? No? Nothing at all?”

“…Really?”

That’s strange…

The secretary tilted her head for a moment, then took out the stack of documents she was holding.

“Anyway, I’ll start today’s report.”

“Yes, please.”

The secretary reported on the company’s current status as written in the documents.

Continuously decreasing concurrent users, revenue, monthly active users, and various other indicators.

It was all just gloomy content.

‘As expected… there’s no way.’

The more Lucia listened to the report, the stronger her resolve became.

An opponent so powerful that normal methods couldn’t even touch them.

There was no choice but to use dirty and petty methods.

“That concludes today’s company status report.”

“Thank you, good job.”

“Your Highness…?”

“What is it?”

“Please don’t blame yourself too much.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“We originally struggled to even make a living. We were often ignored and treated like beggars by other races. It was because of Your Highness that we could live so happily.”

“It’s embarrassing if you suddenly praise me like that.”

“I-I’m serious. So please don’t be too hard on yourself. We can endure anything for Your Highness! So… so…!”

“So?”

“We all… for Your Highness…!”

“For me?”

“I don’t know! Just stay strong!”

The secretary, who had been pouring out words in excitement, ran out with a flushed face.

“…Hey, no matter what, you should at least say goodbye properly to the boss before leaving.”

Lucia chuckled softly as she watched her retreating figure.

It was possible because of the horizontal, family-like atmosphere she had created in the company.

“I can endure it as much as I want…”

She knew.

They were the same kind she had led since long ago.

She knew how much they liked her and wanted to work for her.

“That’s why it can’t be.”

To make such kind and diligent kids cause trouble.

That can’t happen.

“One person dirtying their hands is enough.”

Left alone in the president’s office, Lucia sat back in her chair and opened the community screen on her monitor.

Causing trouble, huh.

What would be the best way?

The actual game company [Akashic Archive] has not revealed its true nature at all.

Where the company is located, how big it is.

She couldn’t directly hit the company.

Lucia recalled an incident that had somewhat impacted Demon King Soft in the past.

An incident where a meme mocking users of Demon King Soft games as “Mapyeong, Onyeol Asperger” spread, tarnishing the overall image of the users and actually reducing the number of users and sales.

Then how about tarnishing the image of the users playing [Akashic Archive]?

A hobby she developed while working as the president and enjoying the community in her spare time.

Drawing on her extensive experience from long-time community activities, she was confident it was entirely possible.

Tatadadak

As she typed on the keyboard, the serious writing began.

Title: Two People

When Versia said there were only two people, the driver of the large magic-powered vehicle asked with a puzzled expression.

“Kid, you’re just one person, so why are you saying there are two?”

“Hehe…”

Versia laughed, rubbing her belly.

With a complicated feeling, the driver marked it as two people.

(Picture of young Versia)

“Done!”

In the past, there was a culture of teasing the game users of the Demon King Soft company by calling them “Mapyeong.”

Doing this would rapidly worsen the image of the players of [Akashic Archive].

Now, the term “Apyeong” would also be seen.

“Let’s see, let’s see…”

Lucia manipulated the multi-tool, massively inflating the number of recommendations for her post.

As a result, her post quickly rose to the ranks of popular posts.

Rapidly increasing views and comments starting to appear one by one.

With an excited heart, Lucia opened the comment window.

-Mapyeong really lol

-Oh

-You mean she’s pregnant?

-You’re quite the expert

-It’s a chicken coop…

ㄴSeeing that, get out of the chicken coop

-As expected, the true lady is not the virgin Bersia, but the gentle Lina

-Don’t slander our dear Bersia, you bad guy!

-What’s your favorite character? Hurry, it’s urgent

-The Lina fans are starting their slander again

“……?”

But the comment section was different from what she expected.

-The next day, Bersia got into a large magic-powered vehicle.

“One person.”

Bersia sobbed as she marked one person.

ㄴIs this guy really crazy?

ㄴUnbelievable

ㄴAbortion? Belly punch?

ㄴThe level of Bersia’s reviews, seriously lol

“Uh……”

Moreover, it reached the true abyss beyond her community experience.

Her mere disruptions couldn’t damage the [Akashic Archive].

“A-a different way!”

Lucia, her mind in disarray, scrambled for other means.

A way to drag the images of the players of the [Akashic Archive] into the abyss.

What could there be?

“…Diminish the characters’ appeal?”

The [Akashic Archive]’s power stemmed from the characters’ charm, so it seemed entirely feasible.

-A girl, stuck in the lab since childhood, getting railed by the head researcher’s massive cock? I thought I was getting a main wife story here? She’s a non-virgin now, WTF.

-Save me, Mom! The demon lord is melting me in lava!

-Commence the slaughter!

-Lab jiggle-jiggle clammy surprise baby birth, followed by a pretty-pretty surgery, virgin forever operation!

-Lina is too venomous to be the main wife, is it because she loves slaughter?

-Raped by countless researchers, but her heart is still virgin for the prince!

“Uh…”

But she tried to write slanderous posts, and there was no way to win against the already rampant “main wife” flame wars in the community.

To tear down characters they couldn’t or hadn’t pulled, and to protect their beloved characters, users, masked, waged slanderous flame wars that Lucia could never possibly overcome.

The level of intensity was so high, she could never imagine the Imperial Crown Prince or the Demon God being among those writing those posts.

“….Guess there’s no choice.”

Haa.

Lucia, letting out a deep sigh, rose from her seat.

“The only way is to lower the user’s standards directly.”

* * *

A filthy room, completely disorganized.

Crumbs and half-eaten food scattered everywhere.

Behind, a collection of adult doujinshi,

A room repulsive just to look at.

“……This might be a bit much.”

Her usual room wasn’t exactly clean, but this one was deliberately made even filthier.

It was all to lower the user’s standards through photos.

“Squeak…guess it’s been too long. Even my uniform doesn’t fit right.”

She pulled out an academy uniform, shoved away in the closet for decades, and altered it to look like Versia’s.

“Wearing this makes me think of old times.”

She was lost in reminiscence for a moment, but quickly shook her head and remembered her mission.

Lucia, face hidden, took a photo against the backdrop of the dirty room and uploaded it to the community.

-Tried a Versia cosplay. Rate pls

This time, there was no need for her to use multiple accounts; countless people came flooding in.

-Oh

-Show us your tits

-Seeing this young lady reminds me of my younger days…

-Pretty

“……Hehe. They say I’m pretty.”

So, I’m not dead yet.

Sixty years have passed since I graduated from the academy, where I couldn’t even date for the sake of my race’s revival, and became the Demon King, working all the time.

Even though my face was covered, I couldn’t help but smile at the compliment.

-What’s with the chest manipulation?

-Bersia’s isn’t that big.

-It’s ruined.

“It’s not ruined!”

She stood up, flaring up without realizing it.

Why is no one talking about the room!

Lower the user average quickly!

Ding

And countless message requests.

-Can we meet once…

-You had breast surgery, right?

-You look like Malzahar I met when I was young…

“Not this kind of thing!”

Only strange things come her way, contrary to her intentions.

Of course, being loved by others is a thankful and joyful thing, but right now, other things are more important!

At that moment

– I am the representative of [Dream Story], the production company of [Akashic Archive]. I have something I want to tell you briefly…

There was a note that caught her eye.

“Akashic Archive…?”

The very person who caused her to engage in these foolish acts and single-handedly crushed the game market.

It was a note sent by the representative of that company.

“Even with verification…”

Lucia, who confirmed the attached verification through developer mode, could be sure that the sender of the note was indeed the representative.

“The representative of Akashic Archive sent me a note…”

It was something she had never expected.

To think that the actions she took to strike at her enemies would be discovered.

…But if she could use it to her advantage?

It might be a golden opportunity to approach an enemy whose identity was still unknown.

“At the Sand Layla Academy…”

Lucia, who had made an appointment, muttered blankly.
