[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 101
First Broadcast (4)SCV Dormitory.
Vendetta Kim Kang-han yawned languidly.
“Isn't there anything interesting...?”
What was making him bored was none other than this.
The game against YSG that happened a while ago.
Although he went to the stadium with considerable expectations, unfortunately, unlike the previous scrim they had met in, it wasn't a very interesting game.
No, it was a one-sided game.
‘Right, Outlaw wasn't even registered on the roster in the first place...’
Even though he knew that fact, Kim Kang-han was waiting for a reunion with Outlaw, so much so that he unconsciously had expectations.
‘I really wanted to get back at them this time.’
For the past week, Kim Kang-han replayed the past scrim game with YSG whenever he had a chance.
How Outlaw played the game.
What kind of judgments they made.
Kim Kang-han absorbed every single detail into his mind without missing anything.
To that extent, the scrim at that time was a shocking defeat for SCV, and for Kim Kang-han.
Perhaps thanks to that, Kim Kang-han felt that he had grown quite a bit in a relatively short amount of time.
In fact, since then, their performance in both scrims and tournaments has improved greatly.
‘No matter how I look at it, it's strange. Why does Prisoner come to mind?’
Of course, as the saying goes, extremes meet, so as junglers in the same position, it's true that going to the extremes will eventually lead to meeting at one point.
But, still...…
‘It's too much.’
For some reason, Kim Kang-han kept seeing Prisoner's play overlaid on Outlaw's.
‘Well, that couldn't be possible, but...’
And, time passed.

Kim Kang-han, who easily claimed victory in the scrim with YSG that had come around again, felt puzzled.
The total number of scrim games with YSG today was 6 games.
Since they had overwhelmingly won the first 3 games, Outlaw should have appeared by this point.
However, strangely, the opposing jungler from YSG for all 6 games was Die Hard.
“Isn't Outlaw coming out?”
“Didn't you hear? They say he left the team?”
“…Huh?”
What is this now?
At the words of King, Park Wang-ki, who handles both Top Lane and being the team's social butterfly, Kim Kang-han couldn't hide his puzzlement.
Left the team?
“…You didn't know? Don't you have any friends on other teams?”
“I don't.”
“Right, who would be friends with you if it wasn't for someone like me? You personality-disordered jerk.”
“Screw you.”
Only after a brief, meaningless spat did Kim Kang-han hear the news that Outlaw had suddenly left the team.
“……Does that make sense? Desertion?”
“I don't know if it makes sense or not, but that's what the kids were saying?”
“Kids? Who?”
“Would you know if I told you?”
“Well... I wouldn't.”
This bastard is leaving me speechless.
Kim Kang-han shook his head and went back to his seat.
This was because it was time to start broadcasting to fulfill his mandatory streaming hours.
He had to do solo practice anyway, and Kim Kang-han himself found communicating with fans in real-time quite fun, so there was nothing stopping him.
-Ban-ha
-hihihi
-Why are you so late?
-Congratulations on the victory
“Ah... yes. Thank you. It's all thanks to your support.”
-Saying things you don't mean top-tier
-lol
-Put some spit on your mouth and lie
“No way, how did you know?”
-Ah... ahhh...!
-Teacher, you've reached a state where the voice in your heart comes out of your mouth now.
-lol
-lol the parrot came again, kick them out, where's the manager?
-You go out
Leaving behind the peaceful chat window scene as always, Kim Kang-han was still lost in thought about Outlaw.
Where on earth did they go?
‘Surely they aren't broadcasting somewhere?’
There wasn't exactly no basis for it.
Given the nature of Legend of League professional gamers, the range of things they could do was limited, and if they weren't planning on becoming a player at a young age, the biggest remaining possibility was internet broadcasting.
Just in case, Kim Kang-han searched various names on BlueTV.
[Outlaw]
[Outlaw]
[Deserter]
Naturally, no results appeared.
‘Figured as much.’
Someone with that level of skill broadcasting... it's unbelievable.
Frankly speaking, aren't they at a level where even if they stormed into SY or SCV right now and asked to be accepted, they would be?
‘No way, overseas?’
If that were the case, in the worst-case scenario, the owner of the next Red Cup trophy might not be Korea.
No, rather...…
‘...If I meet Outlaw again at the Red Cup, can I hold my ground?’
Not winning, but holding his ground.
The impact Outlaw had shown was immense, to the point where Kim Kang-han instinctively considered that first.
-? What are you doing now?
-Streamer is searching for something weird?
-Feeling the urge to desert the team?
As Kim Kang-han suddenly searched for a strange name in the BlueTV search bar while queuing up, it was natural for the viewers to find it puzzling.
“No... it's not that...….”
What should I explain? He didn't worry about that. It was something he could just gloss over, as always.
-? Just glossing over it
-lol What's with the personality
‘…Let's just queue up.’
Anyway, even if it's not now, a player of Outlaw's caliber will definitely come to the Red Cup.
No matter which league it is.
It was at that moment, as Kim Kang-han was queuing up while steeling his resolve, or rather, a non-resolve, in his heart.
-? It's RedTV, not BlueTV? That Outlaw
-Streamer
-They say Outlaw-nim is broadcasting on RedTV?
Since he was in the middle of the ban/pick phase, Kim Kang-han checked the chat window a little later.
“Huh? What did you say?”
-The person the Streamer was looking for just now is broadcasting on RedTV, not BlueTV.
“…Outlaw?”
-Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
-Told you so
-So frustrating lol
-Please hurry up, I'm gonna explode from frustration
At the viewers' urging, Kim Kang-han also put the ban/pick aside and opened the RedTV homepage.
Then, Kim Kang-han's eyes widened as he carefully searched for Outlaw in the search bar.
“……Huh?”
[ON AIR] [Outlaw111]
-GM1) Rank 1 No-sleep stream
It's real.
Outlaw was really broadcasting.
‘The tier is GM. Definitely. But why suddenly a rank 1 no-sleep stream? ...Well, it's possible if it's Outlaw.’
He couldn't understand why Outlaw was suddenly broadcasting out of the blue, especially something like a Challenger rank 1 no-sleep stream.
It was just that Kim Kang-han's hands moved faster than his head.
Normally, he shouldn't broadcast the screen of another platform while streaming on BlueTV, but Kim Kang-han didn't have time to care about such minor things right now.
To be precise, he didn't even know about such restrictions in the first place.
“Found them at─”
Soon, an advertisement passed, and when Outlaw's broadcast screen turned on, Kim Kang-han's mouth dropped open.
Neatly falling silver hair.
Mysterious reddish-brown eyes.
A slightly oversized hoodie.
“……Huh?”
Huhuhuh?
This is that Outlaw?
The one who went crazy raging alone in scrims?
‘What is this?’
Did I come to the wrong place?
No, the Legend of League client is clearly on...?
A curse naturally flew out of Kim Kang-han's mouth.
“……Insane.”
Outlaw was... a girl?
And that appearance... it makes even less sense. What, are they an elf? They probably haven't lived for over a hundred years and only played LoL in their spare time, so how does this make sense?
And that wasn't the only maddening fact.
This was because the screen Kim Kang-han was currently watching unintentionally included countless companions.
-???????????
-What's with that beauty?
-Are you really human?
Ah, the broadcast was on.
Only then did Kim Kang-han realize one more thing.
This was because he could predict what kind of actions his viewers would take from now on.
-Charge!
-It was fun, Vendetta bye bye bye
-Let's gooooooooooooo
The viewers began to stir.
‘……I'm screwed.’
Unintentionally, he had caused an unbelievable nuisance to Outlaw's broadcast.
“Hey, everyone! Stop! Enough! This is all a nuisance.”
There was no way the viewers would listen even a little to his sorrowful cry.
* * *
[Viewer Count : 175 people]
The viewers who began increasing like an avalanche stopped before reaching 200 people.
-Sis, save me!Sis, save me!Sis, save me!Sis, save me!Sis, save me!Sis, save me!Sis, save me!Sis, save me!Sis, save me!Sis, save me!
-What's with GM with this face? Crazy, the world is unfair
-Plus looking at the 100% win rate they're not just any GM lol
-Are they really Korean?
-What's their main account tier?
-Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!Outlaw!
“Uh, ugh... So...….”
What is this? What?
The form of broadcast I had imagined wasn't this explosive.
I mean, it was supposed to be the kind where viewers slowly increased one by one and gradually found their place... That sort of feeling...…
-Whoa, they speak Korean well
-Seriously Korean?
-Are you wearing contacts? The color is really fascinating.
-Did you perhaps come from some forest? I have to report illegal entry
-Ugh... cringe lol Enough already
-lol Just as expected from a BlueTV otaku bastard, so disgusting
It's overwhelming.
Something is wrong, no, strictly speaking, it's going well, but despite that, I feel like something is going wrong.
‘…I don't know what happened or how...…’
This is a chance.
A very good chance to make my 100 million won project, which has less than a month left, successful.
“……Hello?”
Not knowing what or how to do, for now I just said hello.
-hihihihihi
-Hello
-Really doing a rank 1 no-sleep stream?
-? Really?
-What confidence trembling
The effect was incredible.
-Is that really your ID?
-100% win rate GM insane
-No way, does that make sense?
-Are you not going pro?
Amidst the chaotically rising chat, I couldn't grasp what to reply.
Perhaps they were frustrated by this sight.
『‘Myangmyangmyangmyangmingmyang’-nim gifted ‘1000’ Star Balloons.』
『“Reply”』
The first money slap struck.
