All Eyes on Them! Flaunting Their Love, Flaunting Their Love!...

Aincrad, Floor 55, Granzam...

In this city of steel, the players who usually operated on this floor noticed the moment they stepped outside that Granzam's atmosphere seemed somewhat different from usual today...

They could not say exactly what was different. It was just that Granzam's Teleport Gate Plaza was especially lively today. Flashes of teleportation lit up on the platform every few minutes as players wearing obviously high-grade equipment arrived one after another and headed in the same direction!

Among them, some traveled in groups, some alone. Some carried an intimidating air, while others dressed very modestly yet still gave off the impression that they were anything but ordinary at a glance. However, they all shared one trait: their levels were extremely high!

Moreover, the more observant people discovered that most of the players arriving in Granzam were famous—or had once been famous—top players who were rarely seen in the past!

For a time, groups that stood out starkly from their surroundings passed through Granzam's main streets one after another, drawing the attention of every player on the road. Many were even recognized by name while walking by the watching players. It was clear that these people were anything but ordinary! Such an obvious change was noticed even by passing ordinary players, let alone those who lived in Granzam day in and day out...

Everyone realized that Granzam would probably not be peaceful today...

As a result, pedestrians on Granzam's main streets began consciously walking along the sides, leaving the central avenue open for the top players who had come to Granzam. The scene resembled the ancient days, when emperors and nobles paraded through the streets, while the ordinary players who lived here became the commoners watching from the sidelines...

This was another kind of being the center of attention.
