“What, Prince Walter wants to choose a consort?”

“Thank the supreme God. Is it God who heard my prayer and specially came to look after me?”

“Tsk, upstairs, pay attention to your character. Prince Walter’s consort can only be me.”

“Prince Walter is the only heir to the Lordaeron Kingdom, and the consort is the future queen. How can she be a vulgar person like you? The position of consort naturally belongs to us, granceful ladies.”

“You’re right, our Ladies Union is true love.”

“How can you barbarians, who don’t even touch the courtesies of a lady, gain the favor of Prince Walter?”

“That’s right, the Ladies Union is invincible, and Prince Walter will forever be the God!”

On the official website, the old king had just announced the matter of selecting Prince Walter’s imperial consort, and the forum immediately exploded.

The game had only just started one day ago, and Genesis had already swept through all the major game lists.

At the same time, the number of people online, the favorability rating, and the number of beautiful female players online all reached new highs.

Especially the number of beautiful female players, which had broken through 30%, was continuing to grow at an extremely fast speed.

In the gaming circle, especially in the world of sword and magic, where the main theme was athletics and adventure, male players had always been the main force.

Most women still preferred to watch some idol dramas or shop online.

A game that could attract 5% of female players was enough to be proud of.

If it could attract 10%, it meant that the game was well-made and the graphics were exquisite. It was suitable for young people to get lovey-dovey there.

Any female player in the game would definitely be given preferential treatment.

Whether it was leveling up or exploring, there would be countless male players vying to be escorts.

Even in a game, the number of female players would become one of the selling points that attracted a portion of players.

However, Genesis had only been online for one day, and it had already broken the record of the online circle with 30% of female players being online in real-time. The news quickly spread outside the circle and made the headlines that day.

Note that this was the real-time online rate, not the all-time highest rate.

Female players were not like male players, who could spend more than ten hours a day in the game.

Makeup, buying clothes, and talking on the phone with their best friends took up a lot of women’s time.

If the all-time highest online rate was calculated, or if it was like other unscrupulous games, as long as a female player had logged in to the game with an IP address, or even registered to play the game, the figure would increase by at least 5%.

This was Blizzard, a game company that claimed to be made up of straight men.

This was a company that did everything because of passion without caring about it being profitable.

The company was only responsible for improving the game design, and did not care about the reaction of the market, and was even more disdainful of cheating.

Thus, people did not have any doubts about the data that was disclosed on the official website.

‘30% of beautiful female players online rate’, ‘straight men game company’, ‘Ten years of sharpening a sword, a blockbuster’, and other slogans and keywords quickly rose to the top of the search rankings.

In the meantime, ‘Prince Walter’, ‘the most beautiful Walter’, ‘I want to be Prince Walter’s concubine’, and other topics were also spreading.

Many people who had never come into contact with the game before also gradually learned about the game.

Even the words ‘imperial consort’ had been trending a few times.

Some smart merchants quickly smelled the business opportunity and had already rushed to register trademarks such as ‘imperial consort’, ‘Lady’, and ‘Prince Walter’.

The real world was bustling with noise, but the game world was eerily quiet.

“I refuse.”
