Chapter 15: New Face (Part 2)

Kang Seunghyun, who had been confused for a while, soon came to his senses.

And then he slowly scrolled down and examined the featured posts.

[What the f*ck is this?]

Whose alternate account is this? How is this possible with a two-handed sword?

[Was there a Ranker who used a two-handed sword?]

Looking at the movements in the video, it’s obviously their main weapon, but there aren’t any Rankers who use two-

handed swords, right? Or is it a faked video?

[The people who say ‘that video’ is possible because of low tier smurfing, what era are they living in?]

Do you still think this is the PC game era where you play with a keyboard and mouse LOL Do you even know that

Arfellium is a game that prevents smurfing from the game structure stage? LOL Think before you speak LOL

[The reason why ‘that video’ is fake….jpg]

As you can see, I searched through all the Rankers and the top Grand Masters, and there isn’t a single person who

plays with a two-handed sword. Is it possible for a non-top-tier user to do that kind of smurfing?

Yeah, it’s fake~~

[But if ‘that video’ isn’t fake]

Should we consider them to be at a professional level? There are more than a few guys with the title of professional

who can’t do that. If it’s real, wouldn’t it be worth it for a lower-tier team to pick them up? Even if it’s impossible to

use them as a starter right away, it seems like it would be possible to skip the trainee stage and use them as a sub.

[So, Shihyun, is this person a streamer?]

I’ll subscribe right away if they stream lol

……Kang Seunghyun, who had checked up to this point, had a bewildered expression.

“What… is this situation?”

It was inevitable.

‘Shihyun? Who is this person that they became a gallery hot topic?’

Because the entire Arfellium gallery was chewing, tearing, and tasting the user named ‘Shihyun’.

‘Shihyun.’

It’s a nickname I’ve never heard of.

No, at this point, isn’t it a name?

‘They don’t seem to be a broadcaster, though…….’

No matter how much Kang Seunghyun racked his brain, there were no individual broadcasters with that nickname or name.

The only thing he remembered was something about ‘Euning’. But that information was just a rumor that he had

heard that there was such a broadcaster.

‘Then they’re a normal person…….’

When his thoughts reached that point, Kang Seunghyun’s eyes widened a little.

‘The Arfellium gallery is praising a normal person?’

Actually, the Arfellium gallery, contrary to its name, was a place where there was more talk about the celebrities who

played the game than about the game itself.

Of course, that ‘talk’ wasn’t good.

Honestly, to put it mildly, it’s ‘talk’. But in fact, most of the conversation topics were about

and tearing down celebrities.

In other words, it’s a place where people who aren’t celebrities aren’t even mentioned.

But in such a hellhole, someone who is presumed to be a ‘normal person’ is currently being rolled around as the main hot topic.

Not only the featured posts, but also the general posts were all burning up with the ‘Shihyun’ hot topic.

“Hmm…….”

Kang Seunghyun made a humming sound.

Normally, he would have laughed it off or just passed it by with a ‘I see’. But for some reason, today, he became

curious about the main character of this hot topic.

‘There’s no way a normal person would be mentioned out of the blue. They probably got involved with a broadcaster

and appeared on a stream? Did they show some kind of super play in the process?’

What kind of super play did they do to make this happen?

Of course, as someone currently in the professional world, Kang Seunghyun wouldn’t be surprised by any ordinary super play.

The people who play games right next to him every day are top-tier players in the top 100 rankings and the best of the best.

And the role of coaches like Kang Seunghyun is to analyze and correct the play of those people every day.

Watching super plays was like everyday life for him.

‘Let’s check it out for now. If their skills are really good, it would be good to know.’

With a light heart, Kang Seunghyun played the clip of Shihyun’s battle scene that a gallery user had uploaded.

And exactly 3 minutes later.

Kang Seunghyun blinked his eyes with a surprised expression.

‘Was what I just saw real?’

It was inevitable.

Because the video he saw was enough to make him think so.

The sight of a single person slicing through seven people was something that even Kang Seunghyun, a professional

coach, had never seen before.

After staring blankly at the phone screen for a long time, Kang Seunghyun swallowed dryly and muttered quietly.

“……First, I need to report this to the front office.”

Of course, he doesn’t know how the front office will react.

They might refuse, saying they can’t use a normal person.

No, there’s a high possibility that they will.

Kang Seunghyun scratched his head.

‘That would be the case in a normal situation. But if they don’t even make contact after seeing this video…….’

Then, it’s a team that’s going to be destroyed anyway, so I should just write a resignation letter.

******

I searched through the online shopping mall, looking for swords.

What I want is a sword for everyday carry.

Basically, I was looking for a small size that would fit in my pocket or a sword that was portable.

The important thing is that it has to be sturdy.

Folding knives are at high risk of breaking.

So I didn’t consider them.

‘Of course, if I add a lot of conditions like this, there won’t be many swords I can choose from…….’

It couldn’t be helped since it was a modern society where weapons were not common.

I’m just glad that weapons are not completely regulated.

Fortunately, there were more types of swords sold on the internet than I thought.

It was presumed that this was because major accidents do not occur with swords in an era where the omnipotent ‘firearm’ exists.

Or maybe people were very interested in fake swords.

‘It’s probably because ‘that game’ was a worldwide hit.’

It wasn’t that strange for people to be interested in weapons.

“The price isn’t that high.”

The prices of the swords were cheaper than I thought.

Of course, it was a price range that would have made me tremble in the past.

On average, it was several hundred dollars. But, it’s okay now.

Now I’m rich.

I have the aura of a 2nd place lottery winner!

‘I can afford this much!’

Of course, the lottery winnings will eventually run out.

If you only spend without earning, your bank account balance will bottom out unless it’s a fountain of wealth.

It would be good to create a corner to earn money in preparation for that time.

‘I can’t think of anything right now.’

But wouldn’t I think of something someday?

At least I’ll come up with a good idea before I starve to death.

I thought so and rolled around on the bed.

Holding my phone in my right hand and the kitchen knife in my left hand, I wrapped myself in a blanket, making me feel like a giant caterpillar.

“A worm with a knife… a kitchen knife worm…….”

While I was muttering such meaningless thoughts, my phone suddenly vibrated.

I glanced at it and saw that I had received a message from Euning.

[Euning: Hello! I’m Euning, who played with you just now.]

[Euning: It was really fun today! You were also a great help to the stream!]

[Euning: Smiling fox emoticon]

[Euning: It’s nothing else, but it’s about the settlement of the donations we received today. And I also need to get

permission to edit and upload today’s broadcast content to Mewtube.]

[Euning: Is it okay if I edit and upload the video to Mewtube? Of course, I will also settle the proceeds from that part

separately.]

I received a message with roughly this content.

My video will be uploaded to Mutube.

It was something that didn’t matter to me, so I sent a reply giving permission.

[You can.]

[Euning: Wow, really?]

[Euning: Our editor is really amazing at editing. I’ll make a pretty video!]

[Okay.]

[Euning: I’ll contact you when the editing is finished!]

Euning disappeared after that conversation.

It seemed that she went to work.

“She’s a nice person.”

I muttered, scratching my cheek.

Actually, I wouldn’t have thought much of it if she had uploaded it without asking.

Seeing that she asked for my opinion like this, Euning seemed like a good person.

She even shares the proceeds!

‘She’s a really good person.’

I raised Euning’s favorability a little more in my head.

“Hehe.”

Anyway, the important thing is that I seem to have found a way to make some money.

‘I don’t know how much the video revenue will be, but isn’t the fact that I’m making money important?’

Of course, this income cannot be said to be stable.

But at least I have an excuse not to be called a bum by others!

Yay!

“Okay. I should give myself a reward for tonight.”

The reward is pizza.

Actually, I don’t remember doing anything to deserve a reward, but I still want pizza, so I’ll eat it.

If you want something, you have to do it.

Confucius probably said that.

And more importantly, the only food I’ve eaten since I returned to Earth is ramen.

Considering ‘that world’ where I lived eating rotten potato porridge, soup with unknown meat, and bread so hard

that it could be used as a weapon, and even those were not properly eaten, not eating delicious things now is nothing

short of a sin.

It’s a sin against myself!

So I’m ordering pizza.

It was my destiny today.
