Rama woke to his phone buzzing incessantly.
6:47 AM. Fifty-three unread messages. Twenty-two missed calls. Twelve friend requests on social media he barely used.
"What the hell?" he muttered, scrolling through notifications.
Half were from guild members. Quarter were from unknown numbers. The rest were media outlets requesting interviews.
Unknown:Hi! I'm a reporter from Jakarta Post. Would love to interview the Champion who led the perfect clear!
Unknown:This is Channel 7 News. We'd like to feature you on our morning show.
Unknown:Kompas TV here. Indonesia's first System Champion—can we schedule a segment?
Beside him, Sekar stirred. "What's wrong?"
"Media found out. About yesterday's clear. They want interviews."
She sat up, checking her own phone. "Oh. That's... a lot of attention."
"How did they even get my number?"
