[TS] The Return of The Gamer - Chapter 16

After the long shopping spree.

I finally arrived home.

“Yuri, before you wash up, organize the clothes you bought and put them outside. I’ll have the cleaning lady take care of it tomorrow.”

“Um… Oppa’s too?”

Fortunately, the title that shook my identity seemed to revert to its original form as soon as I got home.

Strictly speaking, it would be more accurate to call me ‘Unni’ now, but… I still needed time.

“Your older brother wouldn't do that, would he? You do it.”

“Okay.”

No matter what they were talking about, it was a very wise choice.

“Yujin, take your stuff too.”

“Yeah.”

Even though I’d bought a lot of keyboards and mice, it felt as light as a feather.

“Are you that happy?”

“Of course.”

“Ugh… well, if you’re happy, that’s fine.”

My mother smiled lightly, as if she didn't care anymore.

‘Alright, then…….’

I went back to my room, neatly arranged the keyboards and mice, and then headed straight to the bathroom.

“Hoo.”

After soaking my body in warm water for a while, the cold wind I had faced outside seemed to finally dissipate.

“Ugh.”

I walked the longest I ever have in my life. Maybe that’s why, but I couldn't help but sound old.

Wearing the blue polka-dot pajamas I bought earlier, I lay down on the bed as I was.

The Sandman was beckoning from the ceiling, and I felt like I could fall asleep any moment.

‘I should sleep.’

If I go to bed early, I will also greet the morning early.

‘…….’

I closed my eyes slowly, but for some reason, I couldn't fall asleep.

The goddamn situation had arrived where I couldn't sleep even though I was tired.

The fact that I don't have the same daily schedule as others was a small comfort.

“Ugh, damn….”

I tossed and turned on the bed for about thirty minutes.

“I can't do it.”

In the end, I kicked off the covers and got up.

Whether it was because of those pretty things that kept catching my eye, I was so excited that I couldn't possibly sleep.

‘Just one game.’

The unopened keyboards and mice piled up as if tempting me.

Even though I tried to ignore them, I couldn't, so I thought, is this my destiny?

After getting up from the bed, I turned on the computer and sat in the chair with everyday movements.

“Ugh.”

As soon as I got up from the bed, I felt tired again, which was such a strange situation, but now that I had decided to get up, I was going to try at least one of them.

“Let’s see….”

I carefully opened the boxes of the newly bought keyboard and mouse.

I needed to open them as cleanly as possible since I had to store them again after trying them out once.

“First, this one….”

I took out the keyboard with the softest key feel and the mouse with the lowest click pressure from what I tested earlier.

‘It’s definitely different.’

The keyboard and mouse I used before weren't bad.

No, on the contrary, it was better, especially since I was used to it, so it was better for the moment.

However, even though being used to something is good, sometimes you have to dare to challenge.

“Okay.”

Looking at the wires connected to the main unit, I soon replaced the keyboard and mouse.

I would have needed someone's help before, but for me now, it was a simple task.

Click, click-

I can feel the awkward grip of the mouse in my hand.

The awkwardness was the same with the keyboard, and I felt the urge to go back to the equipment I used to use.

‘But if I get used to it, it’ll be comfortable.’

Sure enough, after a few minutes of internet searching, the sense of alienation from the new equipment became a little familiar.

‘It gets pressed with a tap.’

Low key pressure and click pressure means that the response speed is faster than other equipment, even if only slightly.

Of course, as with advantages, there are disadvantages. The sensitivity of the equipment is sensitive, so it seemed that I needed to be very careful when using it.

‘Champions who are busy with their hands rather than precision will suit me.’

I wasn't normal, thinking about using different equipment for each champion as soon as I knew the characteristics of the equipment… but whatever.

‘Let's try it first.’

Seeing is believing.

Whatever it is, it's best to try it first.

[Login]

I logged into Legend of League and immediately turned on practice mode.

I felt the need to get a feel for it by hitting a scarecrow before playing the game in earnest.

[Lee Sin]

There's no champion like this for warming up.

I rarely played him unless the tier was high, but he's a champion I've recently taken a liking to.

After the loading was finished, I summoned a scarecrow and kept hitting it for a few minutes.

I cast Q and at the same time, used W with a ward to approach, mixed in a basic attack, and followed up with Q after R, so that the opponent could not resist, and then E then E.

Q Q and the ultimate at the same time as ward flash W.

Q ward W Q R.

From the basic combo, which is the standard for Lee Sin, to the flashy combo that I was only able to use freely recently.

I did almost all the combos that could be done with Lee Sin several times and ended the practice mode.

This was because I couldn't get enough practice just by hitting the scarecrow.

I went back to the lobby and pondered for a moment.

‘I should go back to normal, right?’

I had already beaten the scarecrow to death in practice mode, but I wouldn't try the new equipment in ranked games no matter what.

Above all, the number of solo ranked games for today had already been exceeded long ago, hadn’t it?

And it's not like I'm running another account, so the only choices were normal and free rank games.

‘Free rank wouldn’t be bad, but… I don’t really want to.’

I respect ranked games very much.

Maybe it's because I'm a solo queue warrior by nature, but I think each game is as precious as my life.

And that was also the case for free rank games.

Of course, the general perception of free rank games is just normal with points, but there must be people who are desperate for points among them.

I didn't want to cause them any unnecessary harm because I didn't care.

[Finding a game…….]

Because it was normal, the queue caught quite quickly.

[Game Found!]

[Accept / Reject]

[TriangleMidLiner: Mid]

[DiamondWaterLord11: MidMidMid]

[TriangleMidLiner: I'll go mid.]

[DiamondWaterLord11: TTTTTT]

[JaehyeokMaster123: I'll go bot duo for 3 and 5 picks.]

In the end, is jungle left?

It's been so long since I played normal games that I didn't respond to the so-called position chat culture.

To be honest, I was a little embarrassed.

‘What should I do?’

Since it’s a normal game, doing Lee Sin, which I was practicing until a moment ago, wouldn't be bad, but I felt bored for some reason.

After a moment of thought, I picked Sylas.

[Sylas]

Even last year, he was a champion with pretty good performance as a jungler, but due to continuous nerfs, he was a champion that couldn't be used as a jungler.

Despite this, his unique advantages remained, so he was a champion with a lot of room to play if he could get through the early stages.

‘If it were a ranked game, I would have dodged it right away.’

But this is a normal game.

There weren't many people who would pick on the team's picks one by one.

And…….

Instead, something else happened.

[TriangleMidLiner: But is 1 pick real?]

It's Prisoner, who was ranked No. 1 from the beginning of Legend of League.

Naturally, he had quite a bit of recognition even among ordinary people, so it wasn't strange to recognize him.

[DiamondWaterLord11: It must be a fake]

[TriangleMidLiner: I guess]

Of course, given the nature of Legend of League, the reactions were lukewarm as they thought it was unlikely that Prisoner himself would appear in a normal game.

There are so many impersonators.

But, as the saying goes, the outstanding will eventually reveal themselves.

It didn't take long for people to recognize me.

[DiamondWaterLord11: ? Wait, what? Is it real?]

[TriangleMidLiner: Really?]

[DiamondWaterLord11: I searched it and it shows 1600 points in Challenger? Rank 2 ㅋㅋㅋ]

[TriangleMidLiner: Crazy, it's real]
