[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 106

ShyPerson190 (2)

Ugh……!

Uaaahhhhh─!!!

A silent scream echoes repeatedly in my mind.

No, well… I guess I can't join the new team because of that. I'm sorry. If it was a rejection like that, I would have understood.

If it were, I would have tried to persuade them while appealing the vision of my team.

But…….

'Exercise? Exerciiiise??'

This guy, this is clearly a challenge to me.

'I can't back down like this.'

It's not just a matter of pride.

It's hard to find a supporter like that anywhere.

Especially, an uncommitted player… no, a player like that was even more so.

'I have to bring him in as cheaply as possible when he's a rookie with no experience.'

I don't know if it's because the outline of team management is gradually taking shape, but the minimum annual salary for players was already a foregone conclusion.

You could call me a ruthless boss, but, well… what can I do? The resources I have are limited right now.

'I'll make it up to you with the Red Cup win later.'

The contract hasn't been made yet, and the creation of the team isn't confirmed either, but I decided to drink that kimchi broth first.

Meanwhile…….

The viewers kept teasing me, as if they were enjoying the fact that I was rejected.

-That disappointed expression is ㅆㅆㅅㅌㅊ

-Still upset? kekekeke

-I think if you just hold an open recruitment, people will line up...

-But Setu played well, so I acknowledge it.

“…I didn't fall for him.”

No, in a way, that expression might be right, but the nuance is quite different.

-The streamer is blushing ㅗㅜㅑ...

-Are they gonna make a virtual marriage if they make a team now?

-No way ㅜㅜ

“I told you no…….”

My face is still burning.

Especially, because of those viewers, even more so.

'When did the number of viewers increase like this?'

[Current viewers: 1077]

-Ah-ha (Roughly means Outlaw High)

-Hiii Hiii

-Wow, mch... Are you really a master with 100% win rate?

-Rank 1, non-stop broadcast ㄷㄷㄷ

-Is it real?

The viewers, who seemed to have been less than 200 just a moment ago, suddenly jumped up to more than 5 times.

The even more frightening thing is that, due to the nature of the non-stop broadcast, these viewers will continue to increase without leaving.

'I knew this would happen…….'

You know, the feeling when you just scribble plans in your room, versus when it actually happens in reality, isn't it very different?

That's exactly how it is now.

『‘SlaveOfJjushim’ gifted a balloon ‘1300’.』

『“Mission balloon”』

『‘JjushimOut’ gifted a balloon ‘100’.』

『“Fan club membership”』

『‘SetheBestMiRainbow’ gifted a balloon ‘200’.』

『“Did you play games with Rainbow?”』

“Uh, thank you for the mission balloon… Thank you for the fan club membership… Games with Rainbow? Well? I guess I did play, but… I don't remember it well.”

I did meet Rainbow with this ID, so there was no point in lying.

But it was also awkward to openly pretend to know her, so I guess it's better to say it like this…….

-ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ

-SetheBestMi isn't impressive either

-This is... The dignity of a 100% win rate?

I seem to have been misunderstood in a strange way, but there was no point in continuing to talk as an excuse, so I kept my mouth shut.

As I continued this non-communication, a sense of self-reproach began to creep in naturally.

'…I can't keep going like this.'

I could just stay and accept the balloons while the viewers tease me, but that would only make the non-stop broadcast last longer.

'……Let's just do solo queue.'

What kind of broadcast is my broadcast?

Communication broadcast? No.

It's a game broadcast.

Now it may have attracted attention because I'm a new face, but if I just stay like this, the viewers will eventually leave when something else interesting comes up.

-I don't get tired of just looking at your face

-R.E.A.L. keke

-You don't have to do anything, just keep your cam on

-Heuuuung...

……Well, maybe not for everyone.

Anyway, that's not important.

[Searching for a game…….]

I immediately hit the queue.

-Are you not communicating anymore?

-Going straight into the game ㄷㄷ

“Communication is… this is also communication.”

What do you think I'm doing now?

-That's right

-R.E.A.L. keke

To be honest, I'm also running out of energy from being constantly swayed by the viewers.

'…Did I underestimate the non-stop broadcast?'

It's only been about seven hours since I started broadcasting.

Considering that the average allowed sleeping time for League of Legends broadcasters who declared a non-stop broadcast is around 8 to 10 hours…….

'It's hell.'

It hits me now.

There are no easy jobs in the world, and even internet broadcasters, who seemed to earn high income compared to labor, are living very hard lives.

As I was gradually realizing the hardships of life,

[Game found!]

[Accept / Reject]

The game started again.

I follow the champion with my eyes.

Click the mouse.

Press the keyboard.

Wow, I won.

[Victory]

My eyes are blurry.

What am I doing right now?

Ah, I shouldn't go top now…… it's annoying to ping retreat.

[Victory]

How many games did I play today?

……I don't know.

What's certain is that I started to make small mistakes in small judgments, even if not in big ones.

[Victory]

Of course, I still won.

However, it was now clear that the limit was approaching.

-Did you see that just now? It seems he dodged with his eyes closed?

-Sigh kekeke someone's eyes are bloodshot and they still get hit, what is this?

-Noona I'm really gonna die! Noona I'm really gonna die! Noona I'm really gonna die! Noona I'm really gonna die! Noona I'm really gonna die! Noona I'm really gonna die!

-Why doesn't he lose, anyway?

-It seems like his concentration is dropping when you see him throwing it in the middle, but he still keeps winning ㄷㄷㄷ

As I continued the game with mechanical movements, about twelve hours had passed since I started the broadcast.

The number of games I played, which I wouldn't have even imagined in my old days.

Of course, I'm a little used to playing games like this now, but the fatigue from combining broadcasting and gaming was not ordinary.

-Is the streamer not sleeping?

-Trance state, what is this ㄷㄷㄷ

The viewers also shook their heads, tired of this insane solo queue march.

'…I can't do it anymore.'

If I keep playing games like this, I will definitely lose.

Of course, I'm not afraid of losing.

It's just that I don't like losing a game where I don't do my best.

'Let's stop.'

This is enough for today's broadcast.

No, it was too much for the first day.

“I'll end the broadcast today.”

With that, the chat window shook.

-Finally

-But isn't it a non-stop broadcast?

-So are you gonna do a sleep broadcast now?

-D.G.D.G.D.G.D.G.

-Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast! Sleep broadcast!

『“Don't you do a sleep broadcast?”』

『‘[Out]Elf'sSlave’ gifted a balloon ‘500’.』

『“You've worked hard today, but still, let's do a sleep broadcast.”』

A sleep broadcast…….

When I first thought about the non-stop broadcast, it's not that I haven't thought about it.

Anyway, the non-stop broadcast is about maintaining a 24-hour broadcast without ending the broadcast until a specific goal is achieved.

Of course, it was rejected without needing to think about it too deeply.

How do I know what kind of nonsense I'll do while I'm asleep.

“I'm not doing a sleep broadcast. I'll be back tomorrow morning. The time is… ah, I don't know. I'll come when I wake up.”

『“Where are you going”』

『‘Heuuuung’ gifted a balloon ‘10’.』

『“If Noona leaves, I'll die”』

『‘OutlawIsGod’ gifted a balloon ‘10’.』

『“Non-stop broadcast, you said non-stop broadcast, you said non-stop broadcast, you said non-stop broadcast”』

No, what kind of firepower…….

'Come to think of it… the viewers right now……?'

[Current viewers: 9,754]

……Huh?

'Crazy.'

Was it because I was so focused on the game?

I didn't even notice that the viewers were rising to that level.

'Almost 10,000?'

Did someone put coordinates when I was ending the broadcast?

Or did it come out of rumors?

'…Well.'

Since RedTV is a broadcast platform with a thorough winner-takes-all system, it's easy to be noticed by viewers if a certain number of viewers gather.

Perhaps 1,000 would be the cut-off line.

And as the viewers fill up, the snowballing will accelerate, so it made sense that I recorded the unbelievable number of 10,000 viewers at this point.

'No wonder the electronic girl hasn't stopped…….'

Because of that, I was momentarily tempted to do the sleep broadcast that the viewers wanted so much, but then I regained my senses and shook my head.

'No matter what, that's not it.'

If I take off my clothes because I'm stuffy while sleeping… not just the broadcast, my life is over.

“See you tomorrow.”

-???

-Me

-Lock

-Me

-Lock

-Me

Regardless of what the viewers do, I turned off both the cam and the microphone and switched the screen to the advertising video provided by RedTV, as I had prepared.

As a result, the chat window was literally bursting with sparks, but I no longer had the energy to care.

'For now, I'll sleep and then talk to TimidPerson again when I wake up tomorrow.'

Basically, if you have a tier of Master or higher, you can say that you've dedicated about half of your life to League of Legends.

Not to mention the skill that TimidPerson190 showed.

In other words, TimidPerson190 would be logged in around the same time tomorrow, and I thought I would talk more with TimidPerson190 then.

'Then… let's wash up and go to bed quickly.'

It was such a hard day.

Uuung─

On his way home from the gym, Kim Jihoon felt a sense of bewilderment at his smartphone, which was unusually ringing, and reached into his pocket.

'Did I have someone to contact?'

Since he doesn't usually contact his friends, he initially thought it was just a spam call.

As he was about to lightly ignore it and start walking again, the smartphone rang again.

Uuung─

[Park Chanyong]

Kim Jihoon felt a sense of bewilderment when he checked his smartphone.

'What's up with him all of a sudden?'

Park Chanyong was Kim Jihoon's high school classmate.

They used to play games together and were close, but they were out of touch while Park Chanyong went to a university in the provinces.

“Hey, what's up?”

[“Hey, you got a pro offer, right?”]

“I always get those, so why?”

[“No, not that!”]

“What.”

[“Outlaw!”]

Outlaw?

Kim Jihoon, who paused with a momentary feeling of bewilderment, soon remembered where he had heard that nickname.

'Ah.'

That 100% win rate master?

No, but something is strange.

“How do you know? Do you know him?”

[“Do you not know anything?”]

“What exactly?”

Kim Jihoon was starting to feel frustrated.

He couldn't understand what Park Chanyong had been talking about since earlier.

[“Turn on RedTV. Outlaw is broadcasting now.”]

“He's a BJ? But why?”

[“Just turn it on first.”]

At his friend's annoyed words, Kim Jihoon turned off the call app and ran the RedTV app.
