Their gains were slowing down. While these stats didn’t include his edited video of their dungeon dive stream since that was not porn related—which ’only’ received 70k views overnight, showing just how hard getting a piece of the dungeon clearing pie was. Why would people watch them explore the F-rank beginner dungeon when others were fighting with dragons, demons, vampires, etc? It was a very cutthroat competition.
Their dwindling numbers showcased that the sudden burst of fame his unexpected victory over the A-tier awakened David brought in had lost its momentum.
The assassination attempt on the president and the products of ChronosX hitting the markets were much bigger news. The former presented a possible WWIII scenario, so a lot of doomsday sayers were having a field day making the public panic. Many people stayed in their homes due to the fear of some Russian awakened army invading their homes or nukes being dropped on their heads.
The latter development, meanwhile, presented a much more annoying issue. ChronosX was bringing the adult scene of the awakened media platform to the public’s eye. It was safe to say that they were making it mainstream. Their videos were easily sitting on hundreds of millions of views, if not more. Furthermore, they had multiple dozens of them, and they released many more every day.

Flyers, airplane-drawn banners, social media influencers, and many more methods were utilized to bring ChronosX into the limelight. They were very thorough.

3,000. That was the asking price. No, not dollars, but Chronos. This meant one had to shill out $300,000 to get one. ChronosX was saying, ’You want in on the action? Sure, we encourage competition. Come and buy it.’
