Please Do Your Debauchery After You Die - Chapter 286

Episode 286: Secret Weapon

Mr. Wangko was genuinely surprised.

No matter how bizarre the streaming community might be, he never expected such attention would be given to a streamer who hadn’t even debuted for half a year.

Their first meeting was at the underground great farm of V-City, guided by Oh-ha.

The reason for the event was the generous debt relief for the employees of Rissle Company.

They had a brief conversation, and despite being a streamer with lacking experience and stature, he was incredibly impressive for confidently speaking without feeling intimidated.

‘But I thought that was about it. There are very limited things a Hako streamer can do.’

However, unexpectedly, Wangko’s predictions were completely shattered.

During the third Purge Day, they faced each other as enemies.

He was thoroughly defeated by Seoa, who had only utilized her innate strength and drew in Akatsuki.

Was that all?

While he did win during the fourth Purge Day, the overwhelming image terror and strategies from V-Live Company completely ridiculed him, taking away most of his buzz.

The victory was hollow, having no substantial gain aside from the prize money.

Only then did Wangko realize.

Seoa was an incomprehensible presence, existing in any domain.

Her status as a ‘genius’ was undeniable.

With her astonishing leadership and charisma, she not only dominated the company but also caught others off guard with her unexpected ideas and powerful drive.

He felt like they had received assistance during the vehicle auction, but looking back now, he began to suspect she was trying to entrap them with a ‘debt’.

‘Is this really a Hako streamer who hasn’t even debuted for half a year?’

Of course, compared to real Hako streamers, she had a certain stature, but from the perspective of a big company streamer, it was all the same.

Regardless, Seoa was shining alone among the featureless, flavorless streamers.

It must have been around that time.

That was when Wangko began to pay attention to Seoa.

Every time they exchanged words, his joking suggestion to play Battlegrounds together wasn’t just a throwaway comment.

In reality, Wangko was interested in Seoa and had thought about nurturing her in the Battlegrounds if she wanted.

‘Having such a talented streamer around us is surely a win-win situation.’

That was a strategic thinking fitting of Wangko, who was atop the Battleground cartel representing Pangea TV.

With that mindset, when Seoa’s manager asked for a birthday video, he didn’t refuse and showed consideration.

This kid is surely going to become a bigger streamer.

But it wouldn’t sit right with him to keep on losing.

So he had been looking forward to the next Purge Day, but instead, an ‘Arena’ content was announced.

Wangko clenched his teeth and prepared for the Arena.

He prioritized selecting skilled individuals from the company to include 1:1 training during working hours.

As if that wasn’t enough, he searched for Minecraft YouTube videos to accumulate all combat-related knowledge and hone his control.

‘It’s about time I put her nose out of joint.’

No matter how great Seoa’s broadcasting talent was, the skills Wangko had built up over time were the kind that couldn’t be matched that easily.

Moreover, the Arena was a content that emphasized individual ‘strength’ above all else.

No matter how grand Seoa’s plans were, there would always be a limit to what she could do alone.

‘Haha, really? You’re capable of this much? Impressive, really impressive.’

On the day of the Arena.

Despite his predictions of difficulty, Seoa led her team to the finals in both the company team match and the individual match.

In addition, her betting had netted her an incredible amount of money, a noteworthy achievement.

But Wangko was convinced that this time would be different.

Seoa’s performance was astonishing, but he believed that her long journey ended there.

And that conviction soon turned into reality.

As the finals commenced, he aggressively pushed forward to avoid getting swept up in Seoa’s eloquence.

There were minor moments where he got pulled into the flow, but that was within the range of expectation.

And the situation gradually turned in his favor.

The images of Su-pi gradually gaining the upper hand and Oh-ha pushing their opponent to the cliff’s edge.

Besides, Wangko was also gaining the advantage.

Though he was once again amazed at Seoa’s extraordinary control, he was confident he could win if time continued to pass like this.

Crack-!

“……!”

At that moment, the unexpectedly emerged Blazerlight Sword.

Wangko thought.

What on earth is this thing’s identity?

Even after pulling a myth-grade weapon, she had hidden it until now for the Arena?

If she had publicly presented it during the broadcast, it would have drawn in a huge number of viewers?

So far, things had remained within the realm of surprise, but the myth-grade weapon was beyond Wangko’s assumptions.

Without realizing it, his body froze momentarily.

Then the thought of ‘What if?’ echoed in his mind.

The initial ‘conviction’ he had was beginning to waver.

No, trust Su-pi, Oh-ha, and yourself.

Wangko steadied his shaken heart and charged forward again.

He exchanged blows and steadily accumulated damage.

Although he was holding on, he felt that their time was running out.

‘Huh? Time?’

For a moment, Wangko felt like he was missing something.

Seoa’s initially suspicious speech and her series of actions to stall for time.

“Could it be?!”

Wangko’s gaze landed on the tiles on the floor, which had now reduced by a third.

Mr. Lena’s Land: [It has been 1 minute and 30 seconds since the finale began. A fierce battle that makes you grip your hands in tension! Meanwhile, many of the outer tiles have disappeared. In fact, this is also a significant variable that could affect the battle. If used well, even an opponent with high health can be made to fall off the edge, turning the tables in an instant.]

At that moment, he saw Seoa stop and make a large swing with her sword, then abruptly retreat.

An inexplicable feeling of unease enveloped him.

“Uh, uh!?”

The gleaming Blazerlight Sword vanished into her inventory.

Instead, what she held was a flat metal plate shaped like a square.

“A frying pan? Why all of a sudden… be careful!”

Suddenly, she turned around and dashed straight towards Oh-ha.

While issuing a warning, Wangko swiftly switched his weapon to a bow and fired at the defenseless Seoa.

Thwump-!

She flinched momentarily but shot forward with an arrow stuck in her back.

When Oh-ha turned to look after hearing the warning, he saw Seoa rushing in with an incredible momentum and visibly steadied his shield.

Phew! That shouldn’t be a big problem.

Sighing in relief, Wangko quickly thought of sticking close to Oh-ha.

But.

Crash-!

“……”

Later, Wangko would laugh while reminiscing about that scene.

– No, it looked like a rubber ball bouncing around. I seriously thought it was a bug at first. It was so absurd.

“Uaaaaah!”

What shattered Wangko’s imaginative thoughts was Oh-ha’s scream as he flew off into the endless abyss after falling through the missing tiles.

“Hoo! This feels quite fulfilling.”

Boom-!

And where Oh-ha had originally been standing was now Seoa, striking a pose as if she were the fourth batter, swinging a dark-colored frying pan repeatedly.

Mr. Lena’s Land: [Oh? A surprising twist. Oh-ha, who seemed ready to take out Mayo at any moment, suddenly got ambushed by Seoa and… went flying? In any case, he fell to his d*ath. I don’t even know how this happened. Just a moment.]

The battle momentarily paused.

With both Owang Company and V-Live Company wary of each other, Wangko kept his eyes on Seoa and pondered.

At first, he thought Oh-ha’s fall was a bug of some sort.

But seeing Seoa calmly checking her team members’ conditions with a blank expression brought an ominous feeling to his mind.

Once Seoa was involved, everything he’d understood as ‘common sense’ began to unravel.

Something was definitely off again.

Mr. Lena’s Land: [Ah, I just checked urgently. I asked the Administrator. It’s not a bug. I didn’t know this either since I’ve only used frying pans for cooking, but it turns out they can be enchanted too! Enchanting ‘Push’ to the frying pan causes it to have the same effect as just now. So it’s a normal situation, and we’ll resume the match after a 10-second countdown.]

‘What?!’

Mr. Lena’s explanation left Wangko in shock.

Before he knew it, everyone from V-Live had drawn out their frying pans.

Could it be that they were stalling for time until there were enough tiles missing from the arena floor?

He had plenty of health left, but in their current situation, his mind went blank about how to respond to that frying pan.

In the meantime, the game resumed.

Against Seoa’s aggressive charge, he instinctively raised his shield and swung his sword.

Clang-!

A heavy sensation tinged his fingertips.

His attack had certainly succeeded.

Yet, unrelated to that, Wangko found himself flying through the air.

Looking up, he saw the blue sky above him.

Moreover, it felt as though he could hear Su-pi’s voice ringing out in slow motion.

At that moment, the initial assurance of victory he held vanished completely.

“Uaaaaah!”

Like Oh-ha, only the sound of his desperate scream remained.
