I kinda wonder if this is just going to end up being Rex having an awkward misunderstanding. The "I'm going to mail the devs about this!" line and the line about "Lily Madness" make it sound like she was potentially the subject of a player rumor, where people wanted something implemented that wasn't actually real (like the pokemon "mew under the truck" rumor).

Like, something along the lines of "the game had a system where you could give gifts to NPCs to raise their affection, but Lily never actually had her relationship code implemented, so people just kept throwing money into her like a black hole trying to unlock something that didn't exist". That'd fit the line about the guy mailing devs, and also the guy claiming "lily madness", with people going crazy trying to unlock something nonexistent.

So what looks like a cliffhanger about her secret could also just be Rex mildly bullying some girl he thinks intentionally broke players' hearts.

"Another awesome day of Lily Madness." <- That's as realistic a message as you could possibly get on such a forum. It would definitely happen in RL, time after time; older players laughing when a new victim appeared to complain about it.

shame they cut out the bits from the WN after Nilva props up Rex, where there's a news reporter interviewing the guild master and Rex's disciples trying to downplay rex and trying to credit Nilva with the fame that came from manual arts. Only to find out it was Rex doing the interview trying to find any excuse to shove aside his unwanted fame
