Can a pro-Gamer have a time for a love-life?

Chapter 2. Loan sharks and school

After that things went smoothly for Ren and his family. With the help of detective Yagami, Ren was able to quickly collect his reward money.

After all the taxes, the money he received was 75% of the total amount meaning he received a total of 7.5 million yen.

Ren was sad because of this and cursed the tax department for a whole night but he was able to recover from that.

But the next blow Ren received was bigger than before. In his happiness, he had forgot that he still had a debt to pay.

After a day of getting the money, the debt collectors visited his home.

"Hey, kid I heard you have made a fortune. How about paying your debt back now"

Seeing big burly men in a black suit standing in his house was not a pleasant thing.

Ren knew he can't hide from them, so he decided to confront the situation head on.

"I will pay the 2 million debt"

"2 million? Kid, are you joking with us"

"What do you mean joking? I am paying the debt, so take it and get out from here"

At those words, the burly man with red hair who was the leader snickered and said.

"Hey, kid the debt is 5 million, not 2 million"

"5 million? Are you on drugs, my father only took 2 million from you"

"Hehehe, your father certainly took 2 million but the amount written in the IOU is 5 million"

The red haired man said as he showed Ren the copy of the IOU.

After reading the IOU, Ren's eyes were bloodshot and veins were throbbing on his forehead.

"You have tempered with the IOU"

"Tempered! No, kid it was your dad who didn't read it through as he didn't have much time"

The debt his father had taken was because of his grandmother. At that time, she was in the hospital swinging between life and death.

To save her, his father had taken a debt but before his grandmother operation, his father had died.

Unable to handle the death of the son, his grandmother had also died.

The hospital hadn't returned their money saying that it wasn't their fault that his grandmother died.

It was a tragic story that had destroyed his family.

"I will go to the police"

"Police! You can certainly go to them but you should know that we also have our connections"

Ren was in a bind now, he wanted to call detective Yagami but he knew the situation wasn't in their favour.

The loan sharks have all the right documents. Even if he take this case to the court, it was not certain that he will win.

Moreover, he didn't have much money to spend on the court and the lawyers.

In the end, he had to gave away 5 million Yen to the loan sharks. It was his money but the loan sharks had snatched it away.

He reluctantly transferred 5 million to the loan sharks and got the original IOU in return.

"Thanks and if you want to take a loan, you can contact us"

As the men was about to leave the house, Ren yelled.

"Wait a minute"
"What kid? Are you angry now"
"Yeah, want to have a go with us"

"You all think that it is the end! You have dare to snatch my money, I will not let you go"

"Ha, you are being gutsy, kid. Let me teach you a lesson"

A man said as he moved his legs to punch Ren but he was too slow.

Before he knew it, a punch had attacked his stomach and he was on the ground.

Ren improved senses has made his fighting capability increase tremendously and because of his part time jobs, his body was sturdy and strong.

He can easily take care of some adults.

"Ha kid, you want to fight, huh"
"Let's give this kid a lesson"
"Yeah, he think too highly of himself"

As the burly man were going to fight Ren, their leader stopped them.

"It's enough. We got our money. Let's end it"

The burly men helped the man who was on the ground to stand and before going, their leader glanced at Ren and said.

"You got guts kid but your guts can't do much in this dark world. If you really think that what happened with you was unfair, then become a man with both power and money, then I will bow down to you and apologies to you"

With that the burly man left, leaving Ren with the IOU and the rest 1.5 million Yen. It was good that his brother and mother wasn't at home or they will be shocked to see Ren sitting helplessly on the ground.

* * * 

Ren was depressed because his money was taken away but he knew that if he can earn money once, he can also earn money twice.

He wanted to show the loan sharks that he can rise in this dark and lonely world just because of his guts, he also wanted to give his family a good life.

After being robed off his money, he was only left with 1.5 million Yen.

With this sum, he rented a good house for his family and they soon began living there.

The house was spacious with three rooms and the neighbours were also good. It was also close to his brother's school. It was perfect for them.

But Ren received another shock when his mother report was revealed by the hospital.

* * * 

"What do you mean? Why does my mother have to be admitted into the hospital"

Ren stared at the doctor in from of him as asked. The doctor can see a hint of fear in Ren's eyes.

Ren had make his mother do a general check-up as he was worried about her health but the results are way beyond than what he thought would be.

"Don't worry, your mother would be fine after some months of rest in the hospital"

"I wanted to know what type of illness my mother had?"

"Well, in particular your mother didn't have any major illness but her body is too weak"

"Weak?!"

"Yeah, she already have a weak constitution and after doing three jobs in a day without taking any break, her body had become too weak"

"So, what can I do, doctor"

"You have to admit her in the hospital for at least a year if you want complete recovery. If you don't, then she will probably collapse"

"No, doctor please admit my mother in the hospital"

This way, Ren's mother was admitted in the hospital. Ren was very concerned about her mother's health, so he immediately admitted her in a good hospital.

Although it was expensive, he can still afford it with the money he had.

* * * 

"Ren, I told you I don't want to be admitted"

"No, mother your health comes first. What if something happened to you….."

Ren was currently in the hospital ward of his mother. He had admitted his mother into this hospital but his mother was reluctant to be admitted in a expensive hospital.

"I am fine and what about the money. That money will not last for a lifetime"

"Don't worry mother, I will do a part time job"

Although the remaining money was enough for them to live for some time, it wasn't enough to last a lifetime.

So, Ren had to again work hard to make money from his part time jobs.

"Part time job. No, you will not do it again. You have been suffering for 2 years. I want you to live a normal life"

"I am still living a normal life mother, working for my family is not a hard job"

"No, you think I don't know how much pain you suffer everyday to earn money for us. Ren….I am sorry that I can't give….you a normal life"

"…"

At this time, Ren can just hold her mother in his arms and assure her that he will be okay.

* * * 

After all the things, Ren returned to one place where he didn't want to return at all, his school.

He had been skipping school for at least two weeks, so he felt a little unfamiliar with the surroundings.

After he walked in the classroom, all eyes were glued on him.

He could even hear whispers between some students.

"Hey, what is he doing here?"
"I don't know. I heard he was expelled from school"
"Yeah, there was also a rumour that he was involved with the police"

Strange rumours have started in the school about Ren's absence.

Ren wasn't surprised by this. Various rumours have circulated about him in the school, most of them which are bad. He had been treated as a troublemaker both by students and teachers.

That's why he didn't have any friends.

"Oh, I thought that I will not see you till my retirement"

Ren smiled when he heard the familiar voice behind him. He turned around to see Shiki sensei standing there looking at him with angry eyes.

Shiki sensei was a old man closing his 50s and the only person in school who genuinely cares about Ren.

After knowing his family situation, he had helped Ren quite a lot.

He was also favoured by the students because of his good attitude and care.

"Let's talk in the faculty room"

Seeing the eyes of the students around him, Shiki sensei led Ren to the faculty room.

After they reach the faculty room, Shiki sensei sat on a chair and stared at Ren.

"You are in big trouble, you know"

"I know"

Ren obviously knew he was in big trouble. He had skipped school for two weeks without any notice. 

"If you know, then you must also have a good reason for it"

"Yes, I have"

"Tell me the reason, if it's feasible, then I will talk to the principal"

Ren smiled as he started narrating the events that happened to him in these two weeks and the more he told, the more surprised Shiki sensei became.

"So, you are saying that you paid off your debt and got involved in capturing a murderer, and your mother is in the hospital right now. That's why she can't come to the school"

"That basically what's happen"

"You are saying the truth right?!"

Shiki sensei said with a doubting gaze.

"You could ask the police and the hospital if you don't believe me"

Shiki sensei called the police and the hospital to confirm Ren's words and he found out what Ren was saying was the truth.

After contemplating things, he looked towards Ren and said.

"You know it was dangerous, right"

"I know but I was able to pay off my debt this way"

"Yeah, it is good, you can not gain profit without taking any risks"

"It is certainly true"

"You can go now but make sure to come to school daily, now that you don't have to worry about your debt"

"Thank you sensei"

Shiki sensei sighed as he saw Ren going back to the classroom.

* * * 

Ren entered the classroom admist the gazes and whispers of his classmates.

He didn't care much about what his classmates think of him as he only have to attend this school for this year.

From the next year, Ren would be a high school student. Although he didn't want to go to high school but his mother wanted him to continue his education. So, he can't slack off.

The next periods went by quickly. Ren just keep sitting on his seat at the back and listened to all the lectures.

Some teachers were stunned by this as Ren always sleep in class and teachers also ignore him. Their English teacher even asked him if he was sick.

The truth was that he was too tired because of his part time jobs and because of the boring lectures, he quickly fell asleep in the class.

Like that the lunch break came. Students were eating their tasty lunches but Ren only had a bread to eat.

He was eating just a plain bread to save some money. For him, every penny was important.

He wasn't just eating his lunch but also thinking about what to do about his family situation.

He can easily sustain his family by doing part time jobs but it will be too time consuming and inefficient.

Now, that he have some money, he can choose a more efficient job that will earn more.

As he was thinking about what to do, he heard the voices of some students close to his seat.

Most of the students talking were geeks and otakus with glasses. Even in this world otakus are a thing.

They were talking about a topic that greatly interest him, AAO meaning Ancient Age Online.

"Hey, have you heard that the official release date of the game has been announced"

"Yeah, I have heard of it. We will be high school students by the time it will be released"

"I have already decided to save my pocket money to buy the headset to play the game"

It was about the release date of the game. 

'It seems like AAO will be released the next year' thought Ren.

For some days he was busy with moving houses , that's why he didn't knew that the release date of the game was revealed.

He continued to listen to the conversation of the otakus.

"Do you plan to become a pro gamer?"

"Pro gamer! I have not thought about it but it seems like a good idea"

"Yeah, why not we create a guild"

"Guild? The method of creating a guild still hasn't revealed yet"

"We will find about it once we start to play"

Their conversation was about becoming pro gamers. Otakus who hate the reality will really like the idea of becoming a pro especially in a VR game.

Their conversation also greatly intrigued him. He was stuck on a word 'pro gamer' as he continued to listen to the conversation.

"Hey, can we also join the conversation"

As their voices was loud, it had attracted the attention of some of the normies as they also joined the conversation.

The normies headed by a handsome boy whose name was Minami joined the conversation.

AAO is a game which everyone is interested in, whether they are students, teachers or married women.

The otakus probably wanted to disagree seeing their expressions but they coincided seeing the cute girls.

"Pro gamer hah, it can be a good job"

"Yeah, we can have fun and earn money too"

"Hehe, if Minami-kun made a guild, I will surely join it"

"Yeah, I think Minami can be a good guild leader"

"You think so"

Ren snickered hearing the conversation of the normies.

'It doesn't mean you will be good in games especially a VR just because you are slightly popular and have a handsome face' thought Ren.

The conversation was now being controlled by Minami and the otakus can just watch.

It was the outcome of having a good and popular speaker in your group. Every conversation will automatically be led by him.

Ren wasn't interested in their talks now, he already got the answer he has been looking for.

He will become a pro gamer.

Ren was a transmigrator who didn't get anything like the system or a cheat.

He only got a loving family who he cherishes very much.

But a chance encounter changed his destiny and he started playing the world's first VRMMORPG.

It is a story about his legends.

* * * 

Release schedule would be 1/2 chapters a week as the length of the chapters are 2500+.

Hope you understand

Shi Xieren was 22 years old with 180 cm in height and 70 kg in weight, ex-runner athlete. He had a handsome face yet simple appearance. The short black hair with white skin and his pitch black eyes gave him the charm to attract a beauty.

It just pity that he didn't finish his school and now his profession was a gamer. This was a new profession set by the Government since 10 years ago after the first virtual reality game released. Actually, the gamer profession has been around 20 years ago when the people still used a computer to play the games.

Around 20 years ago the most popular and the biggest reward for the competition is Dota 2. But after the Virtual Reality game was released, the popularity Dota 2 declined though they were released the VR game for Dota 2. Even though the Dota 2 released their VR version but people tended to become bored quickly because of the gameplay the Dota 2.

The people shifted back to the MMORPG game, the first VR game released for the MMORPG was Fantasy Online. With 1 billion users all over the world, the Fantasy Online was successful at that time.

In the Fantasy Online, pro gamer could earn $10,000 to $100,000. After the Government knowing this fact, they set a gamer as one of the profession. Here the developer of the game started to create a tournament or competition before they created a league for pro gamer.

But four years later, the Fantasy Online closed. The developer paid half price of the equipment and total worth of money for every player because the developer game wanted to create a new game.

The new game was Universe Online, the brand new game with 80% realistic. Here the new journey for the gamer started again.

Because the realistic of the virtual reality reached 80%, the players playing this game reached 3 billion peoples. Another successful game at that time, but after the Universe Online released the rival started to pop out. There were two new VR games released after those two years.

But in the six years old of the Universe Online, the Government announced the shocking news. All VR games would be closed. The reason was that the Government of the 7 nation, the USA, Canada, China, Japan, South Korea, England, and Germany planned to create a new game.

This news created uproar all over the world because the government gave a serious attention to the game world.

There were many rumors spread out after the news was announced. There were people made a speculation that because there was no war in the world then the government made a game as the competition as the nation to prove who was the strongest nation in the world.

The government didn't say yes or no to confirm the rumor. So eventually, speculation just speculation, people only half-believe and half-doubt about the speculation.

…

Shi Xieren, the pro gamer of Universe Online. Yeah, if you determined the gamer based on how long he or she played the game then Shi Xieren was a pro gamer. He started playing the Universe Online when he was in the 17 years old and now he was 22 years old.

Five years experienced playing a game you could call him old player than pro gamer. However, what about him in the game? He was totally cancer. Yes, he was a fucking noob in the game. No one wanted to party with him, and his name was famous, especially for Chinese because he also Chinese.

Why was he called cancer? Even his best friend in the game didn't want a party with him, the best friend who introduced the game to him though it was not his fault that he didn't want to make a party with him.

His In Game Name (IGN) was Runner. Like his IGN, he was the fastest swordsman with a meager damage. It didn't exaggerate at all because of his speed almost the same as an assassin class.

He raised all his attribute point to the Agility. That was why he became the fastest swordsman. Swordsman Class in the Universe Online was a damage dealer, but he could only cause a meager damage because of his attribute was all on Agility.

He cannot become a tank, he cannot become a support, and as a damage dealer? He could only cause a little damage to the monster let alone a boss. His best ability was running and escaping.

After the peoples who ever made a party with him spread the news about him who a swordsman raised up all attribute to Agility. After the news spread out, there was no one wanted to make a party with him, even his best friend, Yun He.

What about Shi Xieren responded toward this issue? Nah, he just ignored. He didn't care about what people said to him. His goal played this game was to become the fastest in the world.

…

In the room with 4x3 meters, Shi Xieren gazed at the game capsule with blue color in the front. The room was stuffy, one bed, a capsule game, and a wardrobe but it didn't make him uncomfortable instead this was the most comfortable room for him.

Today, the blue-colored capsule going to be taken by the government, and when he wanted to buy a new capsule for the new game, the price was only half-price.

Before became a gamer he was an ex-runner athlete because some of the incident, he could not run anymore though he was still want to keep running.

Why did he want to keep running? It was his dead mother wish. His mother said before she died was "Keep running son and become the fastest in the world. Break all the record in this world, don't give up just because you experienced a failure you should keep work hard to make the failure become a success. I will keep watching you from above so don't stop running until you become the fastest in the world,"

His mother died when he was 11 years old. That was when he just started to attend the running competition. His father? His father died earlier than his mother, he didn't even remember what his father looked like because his father died when he was 2 years old because of cancer. If there was no photo of his father, maybe he would be able to recognize his father even though he was still alive in the front of him.

Relatives? He didn't have any relatives. His father was an orphan also his mother. His parents were a childhood friend from the same orphanage and became a couple when they were full grown up.

Actually, he realized why his mother last wish like that was because she wanted him to alive. She knew when she died she will leave her son alone in this world. So, she wished him to become the fastest in the world to keep him alive.

She tried to distract his mind from the sad and sorrow by setting a goal for him, so he could alive. When did he realize it? When an accident happened to him that made him could not run anymore. When he heard the diagnosis from the doctor that he could not run anymore like before, there was one word crossed in his mind "Suicide", yes, suicide.

All the time, he lived to fulfill his mother wish to become the fastest runner in the world. But when he could not run anymore, he realized that his mom tried distracting his mind so he didn't do a stupid thing like suicide.

Fortunately, he had a best buddy also a childhood friend that could help him, Yun He. Yun He was so worried for him when his mother died because he locked himself in his room. Finally, Yun He got an idea that could make him kept continuing run. That was Universe Online, the second VR game.

…

Remembered about the past, he sighed ruefully. The blue capsule will be taken in this afternoon by the government, and the new game would be released in five days.

Yes, the new game that created by 7 nations and the developer of the VR game.

The new game name was "Tribe Online"

POSITIVE REVIEW :

Hands down the best MMO story I've ever read. What makes The King's Avatar stand out are:

1) the level of realism - this isn't a vague fantasy genre meshed into the form of an MMO, these are real people playing a game, and the blend of RL and game life, the player interactions, World Chat, etc. really bring out the flavor of watching an MMO.

2) The insane level of detail - this author is amazing. No other story has this much focus on the reality of pro gaming, which includes physical skill, game knowledge, the ability to strategize and use that knowledge to their fullest advantage... Either the author himself used to be a pro gamer or he has top tier researching skills, but as a casual MMO player I recognize that even imagining these situations goes way above my grade. Recognizing an actual skill gap between myself and the MC - and not just "the MC picked up some magic stuff and became amazing through vaguely described training" - stirs up a ton of admiration not only for the characters but for the author as well.

3) The amazing, lively characters. All of them have enormous personalities. There are a ton of side characters that are hilarious or awesome and that I want to see more of because I know they'll be fun to read about. This is the opposite of most LNs who have disposable, flat, just-there-to-be-puppet side characters, or LNs who have side characters with tons of potential but are never developed (CD, I love ya but you toss out amazing side characters like tissues...) My favorite part of having all these great characters is the banter and the trash talk, especially in the later chapters when the big fish come out. Even the annoying characters have their charm...

4) Finally, it has to be said that the MC himself is pretty great. He's definitely more mature and interesting than most protagonists I've read about. It's a bit hard to describe him, but the way he deals with Sleeping Moon in the early chapters is one of the greatest marks of his personality. If the character were more immature he'd be focused on getting revenge and "saving face"; if the character were colder he'd just ignore everything and go solo lone wolf. But Ye Xiu? He's self-assured, but not arrogant - forgiving because he's there's no point in getting riled - but canny enough to calmly wring out advantages for himself even in seemingly bad situations. The main point is that things don't just fall in Ye Xiu's lap, he works for it and makes things happen the way he wants through experience, knowledge, or just plain old haggling. Of course, the universe doesn't revolve around his decisions, so it's always fun to read about how he has to tunnel his way through the ever-growing mess he's accidentally created for himself.
If you enjoy the concept of MMOs, gaming, and/or esports, I definitely recommend this!

CRITICAL REVIEW :

The main thing that made me stop reading this is the lack of knowledge of the author in terms of gaming, which resulted in unrealistic and extremely shallow game mechanics and/or events.
For 3 slightly more detailed reason why:
First off, this was supposed to be a depiction of the highest of level of gameplay from a pro-gamer, but I didn't see any semblance of it. Most stuff shown here were mainly unrealistic, and then common to slightly uncommon strategies, techniques, and game-mechanics. The author's portrayal of the MC feels like it's coming from a "fan" point of view, not from an actual high level narration/analyst/player. For instance, let's say you ask a boxing fan and a boxing analyst about a certain boxer about what makes him good. Most fans will answer you with "he's so good because he's fast, he's super strong, and muscular", because of the lack in technical knowledge, in comparison to the analyst who will show you stats, mathmatical stueff, physiological stuff, psychological stuff, and so on. This is what it is like to me when I read this novel, it feels like it was written by a "fan-knowledge" level person, which leads me to my next point, the authors lack of knowledge.
The author doesn't seem to know how things work, and generally how games work. One thing I can think on the top of my head is the APM. The MC has unrealistically high APM (3 digits, can't remember exactly), which is only obtainable from either hacking the game, or extremely unrealistic super human level of animation canceling (provided that the game can even perform such mechanics, because you know the author didn't mention it). I don't even know why the author mentioned APM in a first / third person almost shooter type of game in the first place. These sort of stuff breaks the immersion for me. I always notice these small flaws, which makes me skip chapters just to check if the author address them, but ultimately left disappointed because of the lack of explanation, not even a mention about these certain mechanics.
Lastly, too much grinding. People keep saying that MMORPGs are supposed to be grindy, but the thing is, we are not playing a game, we are reading a novel. Sure, you can grind all you want in a game, and it can give you satisfaction once you achieve desired level, or gained your desired item. But when reading a novel, all the stuff about grinding gives no satisfaction at all. All the million chapters spent on grinding could have been spent on world building, character development, plot twists, and so on. But no, half or a little bit more than half of the novel used for grinding. You must be really bored if you really enjoy reading all of them.

Saga

That means legend.

The story of a hero that will never be forgotten

&

MVP of the 6th worldwide tournament.

MVP of the 7th worldwide tournament.

The holder of the double title.

The best pro gamer in Dark Age, that's known for being one of the best categories in E-SPORTS in all the world.

He, who never let go of his mouse and keyboard just like the best pro gamer should, was facing a doctor who was shaking his head with a stiff expression.

"He passed away."

It was a heart attack.

And that was the end.

&

"He passed away."

"Don't you mean I became civilized?"

He made a joke while making a forced smile, but it only lasted for a moment. Lee Tae Ho was looking at his corpse that was on the floor and on the screen of the monitor with a stupid face, and at the chairman that was trying to say whatever he could, alternatingly.

The hall was filled with silence. There were thousands of spectators that had gathered to watch the finals, but there was no one that raised their voice.

Because it was shocking to that extent.

However, the silence didn't last long. Someone started screaming and soon the hall started to get filled with all sorts of voices. There were some that sobbed, and some that called their acquaintances and yelled. There were even some that laughed as if the situation was fun.

"Fuck. Ah, fuck."

Tae Ho cursed. The staff was carrying his corpse on a stretcher.

"I died while playing a game?"

He turned to look at the monitor. Tae Ho's other self, the dragon knight Kalsted, was on the floor collapsed and was making a grievous expression.

What will happen now?

He got scared.

Will he remain as a soul for eternity?

Perhaps that may be better than getting dragged to hell and having his soul extinguished. No, was that really the case? He had to stay in this place and roam for eternity.

He didn't know. He couldn't know anything.

Tae Ho looked at his surroundings. He couldn't see any angels nor devils, to say nothing of grim reapers. He didn't have a religion. Was it because of that?

Tae Ho breathed roughly. He had died and became a ghost, but he still breathed roughly. He even felt like cold sweat was dripping.

"Soul of a warrior that died after a glorious battle."

Right then, a voice was heard. As he raised his head, he could see that the ceiling of his personal booth was shining. A beautiful woman appeared from between that light.

'A, angel?!'

Tae Ho let out a sigh of relief when he realized that he wouldn't be going to hell. Actually, he had made a donation recently, so perhaps that was the reason.

But this angel was a bit strange. He couldn't see the white wings nor the halo. Now that he took a better look, she was wearing armor and even had a sword at her waist.

"Uh, a Valkyrie?"

Tae Ho spoke unconsciously and the beautiful woman with long black hair extended her hand to him while smiling.

"Let's go exalted warrior."

Tae Ho grabbed her hand without knowing and at that moment, the world turned upside down.

"Brave warriors! Welcome to Valhalla, where the warriors of the Gods gather!"

"Valhalla! Valhalla! Valhalla!"

"Oh, Odin!"

"Thor!"

Tae Ho's eyes became round. The people lined up in front of the huge arched door were crying out enthusiastically.


 
But most of them seemed weird. No, precisely speaking it was their outfit. Everyone had huge bodies and were wearing leather clothes or armor. And the things they were holding were mostly axes or swords.

He could see beautiful ladies in between them, but they were also wearing armor and helmet.

They also had swords at their waists.

"There are a lot of great warriors gathered here."

Tae Ho got surprised at the voice that was heard right next to him and turned to look at the source. The Valkyrie he saw at the game booth was looking at the people lined up while smiling brightly.

Valhalla.

Valkyrie.

Tae Ho opened his eyes roundly. It was because something struck his head.

Valhalla. The place that could be called heaven in the north European mythology. A banquet where warriors that died in glorious battles gathered!

"Wa, wait! Something is wrong! I'm a pro gamer!"

He wasn't a warrior. In addition, he didn't even remember dying in the middle of a glorious battle.

However, the Valkyrie just tilted her head at Tae Ho's protest.

"Progay?"

"Pro-gamer!"

"What's that job?"

The question came from a warrior that was close to Tae Ho. It was a huge man whose beard reached his chest, and his muscles really were amazing.

Tae Ho flinched at the question of this man, whom you would try not to make eye contact with when you met him on the streets and said with a softened voice.

"Uh, just like the name implies, it's a job that involves playing games."

"Game? Oh! You mean battles!"

"Battle!"

"Duel!"

The ones nearby nodded and smiled as if they finally understood.

No, what part of that did you understand!

Tae Ho quickly tried to ease the misunderstanding but his mouth didn't seem to open that easily. In addition, there was one person next to him that poured fuel to the fire.

"This person was a champion! And one that won all of the battles in which he participated at that!"

It was the Valkyrie. Her smile was filled with proudness as if the warrior she had brought was the best.

"Champion!"

"Champion!"

"King of battles!"

"You are quite amazing compared to how you look!"

"So you are hiding those amazing skills huh?"

"My blood is boiling! I want to battle you once!"

The bear-like men smiled viciously and gathered up. It felt like the surrounding temperature was rising by 3 degrees.

'No, fuck! This isn't it! How do you interpret pro gamer as a king of battles!'

However, the Valkyrie that didn't seem to know how Tae Ho was feeling, smiled brightly and said.

"Exalted warrior, welcome you to Valhalla!""

"Welcome!"

"Welcome!"

"Valhalla!""

"Oh! Odin!"

One warrior approached Tae Ho and smiled after placing his hand on his shoulder. It didn't seem like an arm of a person but of an elephant.

"Now, warrior. We are going to Valhalla together."

"I want to listen to your story!"

"The door is opening!"

"Ohh! Valhalla!"

Tae Ho wanted to refute somehow, but it was a meaningless thing. When Tae Ho barely managed to say something, all of the soldiers were looking at the huge door.

Valhalla.

The arena where the souls of the warriors of the gods stay and at the same time a banquet!

That door opened up.

A professional gamer dies unexpectedly during an E-Sports tournament and is sent to Valhalla, a heaven reserved for only the greatest of warriors.
The warriors of Valhalla are pitted against a struggle for survival in the face of a common enemy. Fortunately, within each warrior lies the roots to their own saga, a legendary tale of their ascendence to fame and feats of great achievement alike.
Witness the birth of an epic saga as this gamer challenges legends and carves a path toward the ultimate glory.
The story itself revolves around Nordic mythology and incorporates a gaming system alongside magical wizards and mighty warriors.

Also the story isn't mine just rewriting so other people can also read it

Ian changed from his gown to the clothes Willer bought for him.  It was a plain white t-shirt and blue jeans that anybody could get from a clothing store.

Then he said goodbye to all the staff that had helped him over the past months.

"Let's go get some breakfast before heading back home. And we can catch up while we are at it. What do you say, Ian?" Willer suggested. He finished signing all the papers and the only thing left to do was to leave with Ian.

"Sure, why not?" Ian shrugged. He already ate, but he did not mind spending more time with his brother.

With that being said, the two hopped into Willer's car. Ian looked back at the White Whisk Hospital until it disappeared across the horizon. 

After half an hour of driving, they arrived at a fast-food restaurant and ordered large hamburgers with fries.

"So Ian, how are you these days? I have not got the chance to talk to you… you know, after the accident. I've been busy with work"

"I am fine now. I do not think much of it these days." Ian lied. "So how about you? I am curious about your job and your work with that game, Parallel Realm.  After just a year of release, it has been trending all over the media like crazy. It might even replace reality." He joked.

"I am surprised that you still keep up with games these days. I remembered you swore off video games after retiring from the pro scene."

"Still have not touched a video game, but I still keep up with what is trending these days. There is only so much you can do in the hospital before I die from boredom."

"If you can still make jokes, then it seems that you are okay." Willer chuckled. "Regarding my work, it is not related to the game directly. I just work on the application that has to do with the forum for the game..." Willer said. He was about to say something more, but he hesitated.

Ian noticed the change in his facial expression but ignored it. He switched the topic away from Willer's work and they talked about random things such as their parents and friends.

After an hour of chatting and eating, Willer and Ian left.

It took another fifteen minutes before arriving at their destination.

The car pulled up next to a two-story house that seemed to be new. Besides the white house, an emerald green lawn glittered from the morning dew and a single large oak tree that stood tall and strong like a guardian of the lawn.

With how much Willer gets paid, Ian was not surprised how luxurious his twin brother's life was. Even the car he drove was an expensive brand, and Ian can only dream of getting one for himself.

Unlike his brother, Ian used to live in an apartment for most of his adult life. He traveled a lot for his career as a pro gamer, so Ian never had a good reason to buy a house for his own.

The two got out of the car, and Ian could not help but stare at the vastness of the house. 

"It is pretty big, more than enough for two people," Willer said after seeing Ian's face. "Let's go inside, I will give you a tour of the house."

The two entered the house through the wooden color door. Inside, the lounge drew Ian's eyes towards it and the huge television that could be mistaken as a small theater screen. Next was the stairs with pure white carpet flooring that go straight to the second floor.

Willer made short comments about everything he can to Ian. He showed him the kitchen, the study room, and even the spacious bathroom.

After a short while, Ian arrived at his room. There was a large bed in the middle of it. Next to it was a desk that was already set up with a high-end desktop and multi-display monitors next to it.

"What is that?" Ian pointed at the red and black headset on his desk. It looks like the headset for playing Parallel Reality, but it differed from what he saw on the internet.

"That is my prototype I been working on for playing Parallel Reality. I called it the Blackwing Headset." Willer instantly replied as if he was preparing to answer it as soon as Ian saw it.

"So it is just for looks then?"

"No, no. It is more than that. I tuned it a bit for better performance. Before, there is the reaction time of  .5 seconds when you are in the game. But with that headset, you can reach point .38. Although it is not as good as buying a diving chair, given the outrageous cost of it, so, this will have to do."

"This sounds illegal. You will most likely get a ban for this if you get caught." Ian commented. He was not surprised that his brother will do this. Ever since he was young, Ian will beat him in every video game they play against. Willer's skills were below average and he hardly practiced, unlike Ian. 

From his frustration, Willer put more effort into learning ways to create hacks than getting better at the games he plays.

"The tour is not finished. There is a bit more left." Willer said nothing regarding the matters of being illegal or not. He, instead, continued to show Ian the house. From the garage to the backyard with a swimming pool, Willer wanted to show his brother everything.

Ian was getting exhausted from moving around a lot. The house was bigger than he could ever imagine.

"Willer that is enough. My legs are getting tired. Let me take a break."

"My bad, I got into it. You should go rest, I have some work to do. We can continue where we left off tomorrow." 

Ian went back to his room and flopped onto his bed.

Even though it had been just a couple of hours from leaving White Whisk hospital, he felt a bit livelier than before.

As he laid there resting, he stared at the red and black headset across from his bed.

"Parallel Realm… Even though more than a billion people play it, I never have. I wonder what it is like to experience another world." Ian's gamer instinct urged him to place it on his head and play it, but a painful memory forced him to turn his head away from the headset and towards the window.

Ian simply stared at the branches on the tree, swaying with the wind until he fell asleep.

The morning passed, twilight appeared.

Ian greeted with a sunset in his wake.

"Is it that late already?"

Ian rubbed his tired eyes and got up from the bed to look for his brother. Willer's room was on the first floor and it was the first place Ian searched.

Seeing lights coming from the gap of the closed door, Ian approached it.

Ian knocked on the door, but no response. Since they were brothers, Ian did not feel guilty barging in without permission.

From inside, he saw his Willer laying on his bed with a gaming headset on his head. The design was the same as the one in his room.

On the monitors, there was just a simple message on a black background.

"Game in Progress. Do not Interrupt."

Summary to be written... 



Read @ inkednovel.com (beta)

A team was more than just the players alone.
Everyone knew that the career of a pro gamer was a brief, flickering candle, even more dependent on one's youth than prostitution.
Pro gamers all started to show dramatic signs of regression around the age of twenty-five. They could play professionally for a few years perhaps—but what about after that?
If they hadn't yet formed into something resembling an agency, something which could really earn them a steady living, then Team Skycrown's legend would also prove a short one.
They were in no hurry to meet that fate.
But where did they go from here? They didn't really have an answer to this question.
Back when they were playing for Team Sky, all they had to worry about was playing the game. Ignorant as babes, they didn't know a thing about internet publicity, official procedures, or acquiring sponsors.
"We'll figure it out!" Zhou Yan declared.
"Leave it to me! Leave it to me!" Li Meiqi said coquettishly.
Everyone looked at her. She'd clearly had too much to drink.
***
After qualifying for the LPL, Lin Dong's phone had been ringing non-stop.
Unfortunately, most of them were about buying the team.
There were several established entertainment agencies in the country, and they were all seeking talents to fight in their name.
Having been burnt by Sky Club in the past, no one on Team Skycrown was interested in joining up with an agency. They played out of love for the game, and even if they lost their edge to advancing age, they'd still be willing to risk it and keep playing.
They would form their own agency, and be no one's slaves!
They had no idea where to even get started doing such a thing, but they'd figure it all out, and make something of themselves.
***
Somehow, no matter how much he drank, Luocheng remained the most clear-headed person at the table.
This was not to say that alcohol had no effect on him—he'd been stone-cold drunk before. However, one good barf and he'd be right as rain.
"You can just return to campus," Zhou Yan assured him. "I'll see them all home safely."
Da Luo, Lin Dong, Wu Sen, and Xiao Bei were already over the moon. Seeing their drunken little smiles brought some delight to Luocheng's heart. They'd made it back into the professional scene. It wouldn't be too long before they all could enjoy a faster internet connection, new computers, a new place…
"Alright, you guys take care," he replied.
"Will you be spending Chinese New Year with us?" Zhou Yan asked.
Chinese New Year would come rather early this year, around the end of January.[1] Luocheng's exams would finish around mid-January. If he didn't hurry home immediately after that, then he'd basically be spending the occasion in Shanghai.
Luocheng had already done so twice before, both times in the company of this team. It had always been a somber time for them.
"I'll probably be going home. The LPL begins around March. That gives you a couple of months to train up."
This match against Team Fudan had made clear Team Skycrown's shortcomings. Although they were always able to get ahead in their own respective lanes, they struggled to utilize it to secure victory for themselves. It was a major headache.
By Luocheng's estimations, he'd say the players were already first-class in terms of individual ability, but their teamwork and group tactics were still rudimentary, at times not even comparable to a second-class pro team. This was something they needed to shore up on.
There would be no competitions going on during Chinese New Year, and most pro gamers would be on an extended break. Luocheng hoped that Team Skycrown would be able to take advantage of this laxness on the part of their adversaries to grind more and get ahead, and patch up their two most glaring weaknesses.
"I guess you know that we're just a bunch of penniless bums. We don't have the money to go out on the town. It's a stretch even for us to take the bus." Zhou Yan grinned with a mouth full of pearly whites.
Luocheng smiled in reply, and patted one of Zhou Yan's broad shoulders. "No worries. Things will get better, real soon."
***
After that, Luocheng became very busy indeed.
Tests for nine subjects in all, each one requiring several days of intensive study. It was a stressful endeavor.
What the hell! Who was it who said that university life meant limitless freedom and leisure!
There were more exams than back in high school. It was inhuman!
January arrived, and Luocheng lived a monochrome life. The Gaming Society was forbidden territory. The library was his home, now.
Back in high school, his homeroom teacher was like a god-tier Jungler. In order to ensure that his students were studying hard, he would sneak up on you when you least expected it, ganking you while you were napping in the back, or playing with your phone, or reading some novels.
In university, even if everyone in the back was sound asleep, and the battle lines were all in disarray… no one seemed to care. It had to be the most feeble and hopeless kind of Jungler.
Tragically, this lack of adult supervision invariably resulted in great hordes of students, normally absent from view, congregating in the library to exert a level of effort which could put to shame the regular diligence of the top students.
As such, being in the library became akin to marathoning an entire drama series. There was never a dull moment, and every character was rife with quirks and conflicts.
His buddies Qiu Jingtai and Jiang Jiu were habitual slackers. As the end of the semester drew close, they became inseparable from Luocheng, and spent their days in the library putting their nose to the grindstone.
However, when they showed up at the library only to find that someone had already reserved a seat for Luocheng, all they could do was weep.
How wonderful it was, to have someone holding a seat for you—especially when that someone was the ice queen of their class, Bai Feifei.
For a long time, there'd been a rumor going around about those two being more than friends. They'd refused to believe it at first, but the moment they saw this with their own eyes, they immediately dropped their books and left!
What did people always say? So you're a model student… That's great, good for you. Oh, you have a Diamond frame[2], too? Now you've crossed the line!
Luocheng was a hardcore gamer who had no right to any success in academics. So he'd dueled with Blood Eagle before… That's amazing, you're really something else. You have a swim-team goddess for a little sister… That's swell, you must have done a lot of good deeds in your past life. Going to the library at semester's end to make a show of studying, and the class beauty saved a seat for you?
Where is the justice in this world?
***
"What's up with you two?" Feifei beheld the tears of the two boys, bewildered.
"Critical hit to their self-esteem, I'd wager." Luocheng elected to ignore the pair of drama queens.
Honestly, he wasn't sure exactly when Feifei started this practice of always keeping a seat free beside her. What she'd do was leave a book on there, and tell people that it was already occupied—even though the book was already there even before Luocheng actually showed up.
This tiny act caused something to stir within his heart, if ever so slightly. Could it be that this fair lady, most-coveted of the class, was harboring feelings for him?
Ah, at some point Luocheng would learn the truth: Bai Feifei was always blocking the seat beside her in order to prevent random people from coming over to chat her up. Luocheng was actually included in that list, but he'd somehow come to the conclusion that she'd been saving that place for him, so he'd just picked up the book and taken the seat, bold beyond belief.
At first, Feifei had been miffed by this. However, when she saw that Luocheng had genuinely come to do his revision, rather than pester her with small-talk, she'd granted him tacit permission to take that place beside her from then on.
Quite frankly, Feifei did not welcome people intruding upon her quiet little world.
"Two more to go. If I don't fail any subjects this year, I'll treat you to something." Luocheng put his book down.
This semester, Luocheng had spent the past two months playing in the LOL University League, which meant missing quite a few classes. Most of his notes had come from Feifei, who'd even photocopied them for him.
For a month or so after that, Team Skycrown had been working to get into the LPL, and Luocheng skipped his classes again, or slept through them. Already accustomed to covering for him, Feifei prepared a set of notes for him of her own accord. If he didn't fail anything this time around, it would be thanks to her.
Feifei declined politely. "No need."
"Anything you like. Be my guest."
"Let's talk about it if you pass everything, then."
***
The next two exams went by without issue.
University exams were easier than he'd expected. Just by comparing Feifei's notes to the selected texts, each subject could be squared away in three or four days.
Good, good. At this rate, it would be smooth sailing ahead for him. He could spend up to three or four months each semester fooling around, then pull up his socks for the last month, and he'd be sitting pretty!
After the last exam was over, students began to leave for home, one after another.
He hadn't seen much of Yang Ying, Xiao Jia, Qin Ting, and the others lately. They'd probably been busy with work. Luocheng wondered if he'd ever get another chance to meet up with them for a merry game or two.
Well, it seemed like they had all remained in Shanghai. There would surely be other occasions to come.
Luocheng didn't leave right away. First, he spent a few days with the Skycrown guys. This involved fervently studying replays alongside Lin Dong in order to pick up the tactics used by top teams, which they hoped would help them to develop a personal set of strategies for their team.
Next, they would be facing the strongest teams in the whole nation. Judging by the legacy of these teams, they should be familiar with every kind of team composition and battle strategy. If all they did was duplicate established stratagems, there were unlikely to see much success against these opponents. They would have to develop something unique, or else the other LPL teams would always be one step ahead of them.
"I've already looked it up: In the LPL, finishing at seventh or eighth place is worth fifty thousand RMB, and each team will also receive an additional fifty thousand." Lin Dong was smiling from ear-to-ear as he strode in to announce this to everyone.
"Seventh or eighth place? Wouldn't those be the last two places?" Wu Sen exclaimed.
"That's right. In other words, even if we lose it all, and end up at the bottom of the heap, as long as we finish all our games, we'll still come out with a hundred thousand RMB!"
"Hot damn! Is this for real?" Da Luo was delighted.
Back when they'd gone for that international DOTA tournament, only a scant few at the top could get a share of that pathetic prize money. After paying for airport taxes, flight tickets, room and board… there was hardly anything left.
No one on Team Skycrown had known that merely being in the LPL—even if they got their butts handed to them at every turn—guaranteed a pay-out of one hundred thousand RMB!
A sum like that, for a team with no patronage to speak of, would be an absolute lifesaver!
[1] Chinese New Year, which is based on a separate calendar, occurs on a slightly different date every year, with reference to the modern Gregorian calendar.
[2] In League of Legends, you get a decorative border (like a picture frame) around your champion's portrait in the loading screen before a game begins, based on the highest Ranked tier you've achieved since the end of the last season.


When a national athlete of China laughs at the concept of being able to win a gold medal in video gaming, what a pro-gamer like yourself ought to do is take your size-42 shoe and measure it against his pretty face!
When parents, relatives, friends, and all the rest of society scoff at pro-gaming and say it’s not a real job… what else can you do but hold true to your passion for the competitive multiplayer scene, and resolutely turn away from their doubts!
Have you ever thought that it could actually become an official event during the Olympics, perhaps within the next four years—a game of split-second reactions and seamless teamwork between five-man squads, the ultimate test of reflexes and finesse, in an arena where players compete with all their heart and soul… 
This is e-sports!
Let the champions roar ‘Demacia!’ and rock the world to its foundations!

"So how are you going to help me?"

"Well, you'll see!"

*******************************

Toshiro had no idea where Kirishima was taking him. Kirishima had offered him help but Toshiro still had doubts in his mind. 

"How can Kirishima be so helpful? Maybe, he's leading the police towards me! Well, my instincts are not letting me believe in this man!"

Toshiro was born and brought up in the streets of Japan. He lived a harsh life. The job he did made him understand people by their faces. Yet, he had a hard time analyzing Kirishima's stunning face.

"You don't have to worry about that. The police doesn't have the jurisdiction to imprison you unless you are a criminal."

"How did you-"

"One of the many plus points of being a gamer!"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, people's taste vary at different moments. A gamer has to be flexible and be informed about such changing tastes. Hence, we have an intermediate skill of reading people's minds."

"Wait, doesn't that make you way too OP?"

"No, no! We could only receive its and bits of information while reading people's minds. But a pro mind reader is at a totally different level. He/she could not only read people's minds but could also read their deep thoughts and buried secrets."

"Whoa! That's OP!"

"They might be OP in the mind reading sector, but they're physically weak."

"I see. This world is a world of balance, huh?"

"Not certainly so! There are a few over the top powerful heroes who defy even our imaginations. They are called elites."

"Over the top... That's crazy!"

Toshiro thought while he walked on the streets with Kirishima.

"Well! We're here!"

"What the-"

************************

"Whoa! This building is huge!"

Toshiro was amazed by the giant building that was before him. 

"Let's go in, Toshiro."

"Wait, what is this place?"

"This place? Its a place that's going to change your life forever!"

They got in.Toshiro was amazed once again when he saw the interior of the building.

"THIS IS HUGE!"

It was certainly huge. And there were a lot of people inside. It was really crowded.

"Kirishima-kun! Please tell me! Why are we here?"

"Wait a minute, Toshiro!"

Kirishima walked towards the reception desk. He then proceeded to talk to her.

"Hello there."

"Hello, Mr Kilgore. How can I help you?"

"Well, I would like an appointment for the 12th floor."

"Sir, may I know who's the candidate?"

"Well, its this guy!" He pointed at Toshiro. "The name's Toshiro!"

"Very well! Thank you for the information. And you have an appointment for 10:30, that is ten minutes from now. You can now head for the 12th floor."

"Thank you!"

Kirishima headed towards the elevator and Toshiro followed him. Kirishima pressed the button for the 12th floor. Toshiro was silent. He felt that he wasn't gonna get an answer till they actually get to the 12th floor.

"Okay! Here we are!"

Kirishima and Toshiro got out of the elevator. The 12th floor was also filled with people just like down in the ground floor. But what made the difference was the weird gauntlet that was place in the middle.

"So, you wanted to know how I'm gonna help you right?"

"Right!"

"You see that gauntlet over there?"

"Yup!"

"That is going to make you a Wadorian citizen."

"What do you mean?"

"For years, the planet of Wados has been following a tradition that allows people of other planets be a citizen of Wados and get into the superhero courses of the planet. That gauntlet measures the superpower aptitude of people. If a person has an aptitude level of more than 5000, they will officially be considered as a citizen of Wados."

"Wait, 5000 is a huge number, isn't it?"

"Haha! Well, its not. A normal Wadorian baby has the aptitude level of 6000."

"Whoa!"

"You know, my current aptitude level is over 35,000!"

"How the hell am I supposed to compete against you monsters?"

"You don't have to compete with us! Just try surviving here!"

"You're right!"

A lady came towards Toshiro and Kirishima.

"Mr Toshiro, please step towards the gauntlet."

"Okay."

Toshiro started to feel nervous. He gazed towards Kirishima. Kirishima gave out a bright smile. Toshiro blushed. He then proceeded towards the gauntlet. His heart started beating so fast. He was afraid of what would happen if his power level was below 5000.

"Don't worry, Toshiro. I know you got it!"

It was Kirishima. Toshiro sighed.

"Okay, let's go!"

Toshiro took a deep breath and inserted his hands in the gauntlet. A screen materialized in front of him.

Toshiro's eyes fell out when he saw the numbers!

Normal-taro is an alien; his real name is something that literally converts into Normal- taro in human language. He is of the planet Wados which translates to the 'planet of abnormalities'. Here, everyone has superpowers. And our Normal-taro is a middle class worker. But all of a sudden, he just transported to Earth. Will he survive?

"Lintek, anong bagay iyon?" gulat na gulat si Chen Gou. Ang weapon ni Lord Grim ay isang trinity, Sword, Lance at Gun. Transforming weapon?
Kumpara kay Chen Gou, wala masyadong alam si Tang Rou tungkol sa Glory kaya hindi siya masyadong takot dito. Mabilis niyang ginalaw ang mga daliri niya at tumalon, gumawa ng Roundhouse kick si Chasing Haze.
Matapos tumalon ni Lord Grim para iwasan ito, itinaas ni Chasing Haze ang kanyang mga kamay ang ginamit itong Anti-Tank Missile. Umakto agad si Tang Rou. Ang skill mismo ay nag launch din agad. Ang distansya ay malapit kaya naman sinalubong ng pagsabog si Lord Grim at nagkaroon ng maulap ng usok.
Nagulat parehas si Tang Rou at Chen Gou. Sa Fixed Fields, hindi kaagad-agad ang mga manlalaro ng basta basta. Kahit naman mamatay sila magiiwan sila ng bangkay. Kaya naman paano siya magiging isang maulap na usok?
Hindi maganda!
Sa puntong na pagtanto n ani Tang Rou ang lahat ay huli na. sa isang Peng, simirit ay dugo galing sa leeg ni Chasing Haze.
Assassin Skill: Cut Throat.
Itong skill na ito ay maaaringgamitin sa likuran ng target. Isama mo pa ito sa armor-ignoring back attack, kahit na low level skill lang ito makakagalos parin ito ng damage.
At para doon sa Lord Grim na naging usok matapos tamaan ng Anti-Tank Missile, napagtanto ng dalawa sa huli na ito ay isang Ninja Skill Shadow Clone Technique. Matapos maiwasan ang kanyang Roundhouse Kick ay ginamit niya ang skill na ito. Matapos niyang iwan ang clone sa harapan niya ang totoong katawan ay nasa likuran na niya at doon na kumpleto ang lahat gamit ang Cut Throat.
Si Tang Rou naman na nakaranas ng sunod sunod na pagatake, ay mayroon ng matinding konsetrasyon sa kanyang mga mukha. Sunod sunod na tunog ng tap, at lumipad si Chasing Haze galing sa blood blossom na parang isang arrow. Kinumpleto nito ang kaniyang 180 degree turn sa ere na hindi pa kalahating metro mula sa lupa, maipapakita dito ang napakabilis niyang technique.
Mabilis niyang ginalaw ang mouse habang hinahanap ang target niya para makatira. Pero nung umikot na ang karakter niya, nakita lang niya ang sword light na tatadtarin na siya habang may dala dalang blood mist.
Swordsman Class Berserker Skill: Collapsing Mountain.
Kahit na hindi nagdadala ng damage bonuses ang mga skill na natututunan ng unspecialized characters, kung gagamiting naman ito gamit ang skill ng original class, ang effects ay hindi magbabago. Ang Collapsing Mountain ay tatadtad na patungo kay Chasing Haze. Matapos niyang bumagsak sa lupa, mayroong maiksing knock-up effect. Mabilis naman kinuha ni Lord Grim ang opurtunidad at minasa siya sabay smash kay Chasing Haze ng mas mataas pa sa ere. At sa pagyanig ngMyriad Manifestation Umbrella, habang nasa ere si Chasing Haze ay na gunned down ito ng sunod sunod. Higit na pamilyar si Chen Gou at Tang Rou sa skill na ito.
Launcher Skill: BBQ.
Matapos mabarbecued ni Chasing Haze sa Gunfire, nalaglag ito sa lupa at madali naman itong nagpatihaya para lumabang muli. Pero umikot na ng pabilog ang kaniyang character pero hindi niya pa rin makita ang anino ni Lord Grim. Ngunit nakita niya nag isang Green Goblin na gumegewang gewang habang nagtatapon ng bato sa kaniya. Parehas na bumagsak si Tang Rou at Chen Gou dahil ito ang Mage Class Summoner's Summoned Pet.
Pagtaas niya ng kamay ay pinaginitan niya ang Goblin. Nang biglang bumaba galing sa langit si Lord Grim at tinapakan ang ulunan ni Chasing Haze.
Fighter Class Striker Skill: Eagle Stamp.
Wala na ang dating "Katuwaan lang" na ugali ni Tang Rou. Matapos siyang tapakan, tinapat naman ni Chasing Haze ang kanyang gun patungo sa langit, handa na para patamaan siya pababa. Pero sa gulat niya, ang dulo na naman ulit ng payong ni Lord Grim ay nakatutok sa kanya. Pumutok naman ang flame tongue shot at muli na namang lumabas ang dugo galing sa ulunan ni Chasing Haze. Ginamit ni Lord Grim ang recoil sa gun para malipad ito palikod ng walang kahirap hirap gamit ang "Aerial Fire"
Close Combats ay talaga namang hindi maganda para sa Launchers. Gustong gumamit ni Tang Rou ng "Aerial Fire" nitong buong orasna may distansya sila pero sa oras na iton ang kalaban ay nagkusang dumistansya sa kanya. Kaya naman matapos ang ilang beses na pagtama wala na masyadong life na natitira si Chasing Haze. Ngunit mukhang hindi naman nagalaw itong si Lord Grim. Hindi pa nawawalan ng pagasa si Tang Rou at naghandang muling atakihin siya, nang biglang sabihin ni Ye Xiu: "Ano kaya't tigilan na natin ang laban?"
"Bakit?" Tanong ni Tang Rou.
"Lumalabas na hindi mo talaga alam kung paano maglaro" sabi ni Ye Xiu
"…"hindi alam ni Tang Rou kung anong sasabihin.
Liban kay Chen Gou na magiliw na nagpapaliwanag sa kanya ng mga bagay bagay, hindi na niya alam ang iba. Pero kahit na ba ganito gamit lang ang kaniyang high hand speed, natulungan niya si Chen Gou na talunin ang mga kalabang hindi matalo ni Chen Gou. Nakumpleto nga rin niya ang Heavenly Domain Skill Challenge na mahirap para sa karamihan ng manlalaro.
Pwede namang sabihin ni Tang Rou na hindi niya alam ang Glory pero malakas siya.
Ito ang dahilan kung bakit gusto siyang isama sa laro ni Chen Gou kahit na ano mang mangyari, pero ito rin ang dahilan kung bakit hindi siya interesado sa laro.
Madami ang mga taong gumagawa dahil nakikita nilang madali ito. Pero iba si Tang Rou. Hindi siya makapagpokus sa mga bagay na nakikita niyang madali.
Ang pinahirapang Chen Gou ay napansin rin ito. Masyado siyang makumpitensyang babae. Kapag nakakita siya ng mahirap gawin, kahit walang pagtutulak ng ibang tao, hindi siya titigil para lang malampasan ito.
Halimbawa, nung ginamit niya si Chasing Haze sa Heavenly Domain Skill Challenge, maraming beses din siyang pumalya bago siya nagtagumpay. Sa kaunting oras lang ang bilang ng drive na dati niyang naramdaman ay 100 times na mas malaki kaysa sa pagmamahal ni Chen Gou sa Glory.
Ang akala ni Chen Gou ay madadala na si Tang Rou ngayon. Pero sino ba naman ang magaakala na pagkatapos ng Skill Challenge, mawawalan na ng interes si Tang Rou sa Glory. Matapos niyang ma Clear ang equipment, hindi na sineseryoso ni Tang Rou ang ganitong klase ng item hoarding.
Sa huli, nakita ni Tang Rou ang Glory na "Ganun lang pala kadali". Para mabuhay muli ang kanyang interes, kailangang mabago ang impresyon nito sa laro. Ito ang dahilan kung bakit naghahanap ito ng makakalaban ni Tang Rou na hindi niya matalo para malaman niyang mahirap ang laro. Pero mas lalo pa itong naging masama. Kasi sa bawat oraw na makakilala si Tang Rou ng dalubhasa galing sa Arena lagi niya itong mabilis na natatalo.
Itong mga ganitong klase ng celebrity names, iyong mga propesyonal na manlalaro, kahit ilang beses niyang ipaliwanag ito kay Tang Rou. Pero tumatawa lang itong si Tang Rou at hindi naniniwala sa kanya. Walang siyang ibang choice. Ang katotohanan ay mas madaling tanggapin kaysa sa mga salita. Pero saan naman makakahanap ng ganitong dalubhasa si Chen Gou?
Hanggang sa bumalik si Tang Rou, palaging iniisip ni Chen Gou na hayaan si Ye Xiu na subukan siya.
Pero hindi alam ni Chen Gou kung gaano ba kagaling itong si Ye Xiu. Nang dahil sa galing siya sa professional circle, masasabing mas malakas siya kaysa sa mga normal na manlalaro. Ang masama ay kung sasabihin na naman ulit ni Tang Rou na "Ganun lang kadali"
Ito ang orihinal na intensyon ni Chen Gou. Pero sa bawat oras na nakakasalamuha niya si Ye Xiu, palagi na lang siya nitong ginagalit. Palaging galit kaya naman nakakalimutan niya ang orihinal nitong pakay at tumayo sa likod ni Tang Rou, umaasang matalo ni Tang Rou itong si Ye Xiu ng makapaglabas ito ng galit. Pero sa huli, natalo pa rin si Tang Rou nang wala manlang kalaban laban. Nung pagkatapos lang sabihin ni Ye Xi una "Hindi marunong maglaro", naaalala niya sa wakas.
"Hindi alam kung paano maglaro?" naramdaman ni Chen Gou napara bang masyadong labis ang mga salitang ito. Kung ikukunsidera mo lang na hindi siya marunong maglaro, papaano na iyong mga kalaban na natalo ni Tang Rou? At isa pa, hindi ba;t masyadong malakas itong taong ito? Natalo niya si Tang Rou sa simula palang hanggang sa huli.
Ang manlalarong naglalaro sa professional circle ay talaga namang nasa ibang level. sa normal, kapag nanonood siya ng mga recordings ng competitions, hindi niya maramdamang OP sila! Pero sa tingin ko may problema din sa kanilang kalaban. Pro-gamer laban sa pro-gamer ay napaka pantay ng magkakalaban at hindi kakaiba sa mga normal na manlalarong naglalaban.
Si Ye Xi una nakaupo sa malapit ay nakatayo na. Tinango naman niya ang ulo niya at sinabing: "Ang technique mo ay mabilis, pero ang coordination ng kaliwa at kanan mong kamay ay magulo. Kapag naiba bigla ang viewpoint mo, ang pagadapt mo at pagjudgement ay nawawalang talaga. Ang pagkakaintindi mo sa equipment at skills ay hindi sapat. Ang totoong combat experience mo ay napaka liit lang at ang mga taktika mo ay masyadong matigas, paano ito magiging paglalaro? Kung gusto mo akong matalo gamit ag ganitong mga skill, bumalik ka na lang pagkatapos ng isang daang taon!"
Chapter 49: You Really Don't Know How to Play
"D*mn, what is that thing?" Chen Guo was dumbstruck. The weapon in Lord Grim's hands was a trinity. Sword, lance, gun. A transforming weapon?
Compared to Chen Guo, Tang Rou, who didn't know much about Glory, wasn't too scared by it. Her fingers quickly jumped and Chasing Haze did a Roundhouse Kick.
After Lord Grim leaped to avoid it, Chasing Haze raised her hands and used an Anti-Tank Missile. Tang Rou acted quickly. The skill itself also launched quickly. The distance was close and Lord Grim took the explosion head on and turned into a cloud of smoke.
Tang Rou and Chen Guo were both startled. In the Fixed Field, players couldn't be killed like this in an instant. Even if they were, the dead player would leave a corpse. How could he just turn into a cloud of smoke?
Not good!
By the time Tang Rou realized it, it was already too late. With a peng, blood blossomed out from Chasing Haze's neck.
Assassin Skill: Cut Throat.
This skill had to be used from behind the target. Adding onto the armor-ignoring back attack, even though it was a low-leveled skill, it still did considerable damage.
As for that Lord Grim, who had been turned into smoke by the Anti-Tank Missile, the two both understood too late that it was the Ninja Skill Shadow Clone Technique. After dodging her Roundhouse Kick, he used the skill. He left the clone in front of her, while his real body split to behind her body, completing the Cut Throat.
Tang Rou, who had suffered from attacks multiple times, now had a look of extreme concentration on her. After a series of tapping sounds, Chasing Haze flew through the blood blossom like an arrow. She completed a 180 degree turn in midair not even half a meter above the ground, showing her exceptionally quick technique.
Her mouse quickly moved looking for a target to fire at. But when her character turned, she only saw a sword light chopping down towards her, bringing along a bloody mist.
Swordsman Class Berserker Skill: Collapsing Mountain.
Although the skills learned by unspecialized characters didn't have the damage bonuses given if they were done by the skill's original class, the original effects wouldn't change. Collapsing Mountain chopped down towards Chasing Haze. After hitting the ground, there was a short knock-up effect. Lord Grim quickly seized the opportunity and kneed her, smashing Chasing Haze higher into the air. With a shake of the Myriad Manifestation Umbrella, the midair Chasing Haze was gunned down repeatedly. Chen Guo and Tang Rou were beyond familiar with this skill. This was a Launcher Skill: BBQ.
After Chasing Haze, who had just been barbecued by gunfire, fell to the ground, she immediately turned over to fight again. But when her character turned around a circle, she couldn't find Lord Grim's figure. Instead, she saw a Green Goblin swaying around throwing rocks at her. Tang Rou and Chen Guo both collapsed. This was a Mage Class Summoner's summoned pet.
Raising her hands, she bombarded the Goblin, when Lord Grim suddenly dropped from the sky stepping on top of Chasing Haze's head.
Fighter Class Striker Skill: Eagle Stamp.
Tang Rou no longer had that previous "just for fun" attitude. After being stepped on, Chasing Haze pointed her gun up towards the sky, ready to gun him down. But to her surprise, Lord Grim's umbrella tip once again aimed at her. A flame tongue shot out and more blood blossomed out from Chasing Haze's head. Lord Grim used the recoil of this gun and easily flew backwards with "Aerial Fire".
Close combat was disadvantageous towards Launchers. Tang Rou had wanted to use "Aerial Fire" the entire time to pull apart the distance, but this time, the opponent unexpectedly took the initiative to distance himself. After being hit multiple times, Chasing Haze didn't have much life left. Yet Lord Grim didn't even seem like he had been touched. Tang Rou hadn't given up hope and prepared to continue attacking him, when Ye Xiu said: "How about we stop fighting?"
"Why?" Tang Rou asked.
"It turns out you really don't know how to play." Ye Xiu said.
"...." Tang Rou didn't know what to say. Aside from Chen Guo enthusiastically explaining to her a few things, she really didn't know much else. But even like this, just relying on her high hand speed, she helped Chen Guo defeat opponents Chen Guo couldn't win against. She had even completed the Heavenly Domain Skill Challenge that was difficult for the majority of the players.
Tang Rou could say that she didn't know Glory, but she was still extremely strong.
This was why Chen Guo wanted to bring her into the game by every means possible. But it was also why she wasn't interested in the game.
A lot of people did things because they found it easy. Tang Rou was different. She couldn't concentrate on things that she found easy.
The tormented Chen Guo also saw this. This was an extremely competitive girl. Once she found something difficult, without anyone's encouragement, she wouldn't stop until she overcame it.
For example, when she attacked at Chasing Haze's Heavenly Domain Skill Challenge, Tang Rou also failed many times before succeeding. In that short amount of time, the amount of drive she had looked a hundred times greater than Chen Guo's love for Glory.
Chen Guo thought that this time, Tang Rou was moved. But who knew that after the Skill Challenge, Tang Rou quickly lost interest in Glory. Clearing for equipment and so on, Tang Rou didn't take this type of item hoarding seriously.
In the end, Tang Rou saw Glory as being "so it was that easy". In order to arouse her interest, her impression of the game had to change. This was why Chen Guo kept on looking for opponents that Tang Rou couldn't beat to make her realize the difficulty of the game. But this actually made it worse. Every time Tang Rou met a so-called expert in the Arena, she would quickly beat him.
That sort of celebrity names, those professional gamers, Chen Guo didn't know how many times she explained them to Tang Rou. But Tang Rou only laughed, not believing her. No choice. Facts spoke louder than words. But where would Chen Guo find such an expert?
Up until Tang Rou returned, Chen Guo kept on thinking of letting Ye Xiu try her out.
Chen Guo didn't know exactly how strong Ye Xiu was. However, he had once been in the professional circle, so he had to be stronger than normal players. At worst, Tang Rou would just say "so it was that easy" again.
This was Chen Guo's original intention. But every time she came into contact with Ye Xiu, he would always make her mad. Angrily, Chen Guo forgot her original notion and stood behind Tang Rou, hoping for Tang Rou to tyrannically destroy Ye Xiu to vent her anger. But in the end, Tang Rou was beaten without a chance to retaliate. Only after Ye Xiu said "don't know how to play", did she finally remember.
"Don't know how to play?" Chen Guo felt this remark was a little too excessive. If that was considered as not knowing how to play, then what about all of those opponents Tang Rou had beaten? Furthermore, wasn't this guy too strong? He had completely suppressed Tang Rou from start to finish. A player from the professional circle really was on a different level. Ordinarily, when she watched recordings of competitions, it didn't feel like they were that OP! It seemed like it was still the problem of opponents. Pro-gamer versus pro-gamer were all evenly matched opponents so it didn't look any different from when normal players fought.
Ye Xiu, who sat nearby, had already stood up. He nodded his head and said: "Your technique is quite quick, but the coordination between your left and right hands is a complete mess. When your viewpoint suddenly changes, your adaptability and judgement pretty much turns to zero. Your understanding towards equipment and skills isn't nearly enough. Your real combat experience is too little and your tactics are too stiff, how could this be considered playing? If you want to beat me with this skill, then come back in a hundred years!"


Sa isang larong online na Glory, si Ye Xiu ay kilala bilang isang mala-Diyos na manlalaro't walang kahit na sino man ang nakakapantay sa karunungan niya sa laro. Gayunpaman, dahil sa ilang mga dahilan ay nasipa siya mula sa kaniyang team. Matapos lumisan, siya ay nakahanap ng trabaho bilang tagapamahala sa isang Internet Cafe.
Sa mga sandaling binuksan ng Glory ang kanilang ika-sampung server, siya na may halos sampung taong karanasan sa laro ay muling magbabalik. Kasama ang alaala ng kahapon, at isang hindi kumpleto't self-made na armas, ay muling magsisimula ang kaniyang daan papunta sa tuktok!
Matapos ang mga madugong labanan, at nakakasindak na patayan, sino ang nagnakaw ng aking kadakilaan? Sa ilalim ng bagyo’t delubyo, magiging para bang hindi nawasak ang aking mga pangarap.
Sa liwanag nito'y hindi mababalutan ng kadiliman ang daan. Sa ilalim ng mga mata ng lahat, dito magsisimula ang aking daan para sa kadakilaan!



"...What?" The surprised Jang Hayoung's eyes widened.

"This is why I wanted to buy time."

[The participant 'Yoo Jonghyuk' has killed the helper 'Thunder Eating Bird'!]

[The 'Yoo Jonghyuk - Kim Dokja' industrial complex has won one point.]

Yoo Jonghyuk falling through the air and the bewildered constellations could be seen.

[The constellation 'Poked Out His Eyes' is crying out with surprise!]

[The constellation 'General of Vanara' is showing hostility towards Yoo Jonghyuk!] 

[Many constellations are amazed by Yoo Jonghyuk's movements.]

Yoo Jonghyuk wasn't panicked at all despite the attacks. His movements seemed like he had grasped all the terrain features of this place. By the time the furious King Oedipus swung his staff, Yoo Jonghyuk had already disappeared.

[Where did you go?]

[Find him! He is near here!]

The constellations moved and searched around but they couldn't find where Yoo Jonghyuk had disappeared to. I hid behind a tree with Jang Hayoung and watched the scene.

One of Yoo Jonghyuk's attributes was 'Pro Gamer.' This guy received an overwhelming advantage and adaptability in all games. This game was still in the early stages and stats were limited.

Before the constellations were accustomed to the game, this 'first round' was a better stage for us than anyone else. The opponents might be constellations but it wasn't easy for them to face off against the current Yoo Jonghyuk.

[There he is!]

The General of Vanara let out a wind blade from his mouth towards a bush and shouted. There was a loud noise and the surrounding terrain was cut. However, this time, Yoo Jonghyuk wasn't present. The confused General of Vanara retreated and a flash of light emerged from the dirt on the ground. It was too late to avoid it.

[The participant 'Yoo Jonghyuk' has killed the helper 'General of Vanara!]

Yes, Yoo Jonghyuk should catch at least two.

[The 'Yoo Jonghyuk - Kim Dokja' industrial complex has won two points.]

[The participant 'Yoo Jonghyuk' has started to blow blood onto the battlefield!]

Jang Hayoung pointed towards Yoo Jonghyuk and shivered. "What is this? A monster?"

"It is similar. He is the best pro gamer in South Korea."

I was talking about the setting of Ways of Survival. In the distance, the General of Vanara's body was split in half and he disappeared. The rules of the game were applied so he wouldn't really die, but the mental damage was significant.

[The constellation 'Prisoner of the Golden Headband' is pleased.]

[The constellation 'Prisoner of the Golden Headband' has sponsored 20,000 coins to the incarnation 'Yoo Jonghyuk'.]

The true name of the General of Vanara was Hanuman, a monkey hero of Indian mythology. Due to the characteristic of both being monkeys, the two constellations didn't have a good relationship with each other. I guess it was true.

[Shit, chase him!]

Yoo Jonghyuk killed two people and hid in the rocky gorge this time. Then one more enemy appeared.

[The constellation 'Founder of Humanity' wants to show an example to his arrogant descendant.]

The constellation who was close to a primitive man. The Founder of Humanity, Manu. I forgot that he was on the side fo the Melledon Industrial Complex.

"Maybe we should help."

Manu of Vedas was a narrative-level constellation. He might be low in level among the narrative-grade constellations but it was absolutely disadvantageous for Yoo Jonghyuk.

Yoo Jonghyuk had already consumed a lot of mobility and magic power killing two constellations. He might have the attribute of Pro Gamer but it was too much for him from now on...

[The participant 'Yoo Jonghyuk' has activated the 'Sentinel Golem's Blessing!']

Yoo Jonghyuk stood on a rocky highland area and aimed a giant bow.

[The star relic 'Robin Hood's Strongbow' has maximized the user's accuracy!]

This bastard, when did he get this? It was something that could only be obtained from the 15th scenario area, Lugratia. Intangible arrows flew towards the body of King Oedipus.  

[Keok...!]

Of course, Yoo Jonghyuk's advantage wasn't only swordsmanship. This guy could use all types of weapons with the Weapons Mastery skill.

[You! You're not a closer range damage dealer?]

In addition, Yoo Jonghyuk's position was 'all-rounder.'

[The participant 'Yoo Jonghyuk' will receive the position compensation effect.]

While this game was in progress, Yoo Jonghyuk wouldn't be penalized for using any types of weapons.

[I will kill you! This thing, this thing...!]

King Oedipus screamed as holes were drilled into his body.

"We should go help!"

"Wait a minute."

Making clumsy movements in the current circumstances would only hinder Yoo Jonghyuk.
Immediately after launching Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, Yoo Jonghyuk's operation flowed into my head like a movie trailer.

Jang Hayoung frowned at my flippant smile and asked, "...What is it?"

"That bastard is scarier than I thought."

Yoo Jonghyuk didn't waste a single second when he came here. The evidence was the Sentinel Golem's Blessing that was embedded in his body.

[The Sentinel Golem's Blessing has started to accumulate!]

The sentinel golem inhabited the outskirts of the gorge and gave a 'fainting' buff effect. However, this buff had one condition. The person had to succeed in 20 attacks before the 'fainting' effect was produced. Now there were approximately 10 metres between Yoo Jonghyuk and King Oedipus.

[This thing, this thing...!]

King Oedipus jumped and tried to aim for Yoo Jonghyuk. King Oedipus' body hardened from the ankle and he collapsed like a stone statue.

[The helper 'Poked Out His Eyes' has fainted.]

The duration of the fainting was three seconds. These three seconds were enough time for Yoo Jonghyuk.

[The participant 'Yoo Jonghyuk' has killed the helper 'Poked Out His Eyes'!]

[The name of the participant 'Yoo Jonghyuk' is widely circulated on the battlefield!]

[The 'Yoo Jonghyuk - Kim Dokja' industrial complex has won three points.]

Three... I honestly admired him. The appearance of the dying King Oedipus was unrealistic. It was hard to believe he was the constellation who threatened me at the constellation banquet.

[Impertinent fellow!]

However, the fight hadn't ended yet. Before Yoo Jonghyuk could sigh, the excited Founder of Humanity rushed forward. Yoo Jonghyuk was now lacking physical strength and magic power.

The Primitive Spear belonging to the Founder of Humanity dug into a gap that Yoo Jonghyuk revealed. It looked similar to a stone tool but the power it contained was enormous.

On the other hand, Yoo Jonghyuk was also tough. He twisted his back with a flexible motion and at nearly the same time, he swung his weapon. The spear collided with the sword and a sharp sound was heard. The distinctive yellow aura that was only for transcendents was wrapped around Yoo Jonghyuk's Black Demon Sword. It opposed the blue 'status' woven around the Primitive Spear wielded by Manu.

[These martial arts! They were skills left behind by worms. It still seems useful.]

It was a situation where participants could only use 10% of their power. Manu seemed unable to accurately determine the amount of force he could control. There were dozens of exchanges in a flash and Manu laughed like he was having fun.

[You are pretty good human. I have seen countless transcendents but none as strong as you.]

"You haven't seen my master."

A power similar to martial arts emerged from Manu's spear. Manu had mastered almost every type of talent that a human could gain. Originally, the present Yoo Jonghyuk wouldn't be able to defeat Manu. Still, the balance of power was even because Manu hadn't fought such a long battle for a long time.

[How interesting! I haven't competed with more than 10 blows since becoming a constellation!]

The forcible equilibrium balance maintained this confrontation. I grabbed Jang Hayoung who was about to pop out.

"That jerk will die if this continues!"

The same thing would happen even if we popped out. I wanted to use Electrification to run out and cut off Manu's neck.

However, I had to endure it for now. If it turned out like I thought, Yoo Jonghyuk would soon welcome an opportunity. All I needed was time. Just time.

"Jang Hayoung, send a message through the wall."

"What? To who?"

"The Founder of Humanity."

"Huh? The guy currently fighting with Yoo Jonghyuk? Ah...!"

The clever Jang Hayoung realized what I was planning. Jang Hayoung turned on the Unidentified Wall and wrote a message. Soon after, Manu's baffled voice rang out.

[What? These messages...!]

I didn't need to ask to know the situation that Manu was facing now. Perhaps countless messages sent by the '15 year old schoolgirl' were popping up like pop-up windows in his field of view.

[These ridiculous tactics!]

Manu hesitated and a white light started to emerge from Yoo Jonghyuk's body. I had seen this bright light before. It happened when Jung Heewon evolved to the Judge of Destruction. Then when Lee Hyunsung learnt Great Mountain Smash...

[The character 'Yoo Jonghyuk' has reached the moment of attribute evolution!]

[The attribute 'Pro Gamer' of the character Yoo Jonghyuk has evolved!]

Attribute evolution. Finally, Yoo Jonghyuk's second attribute had come to full bloom. Manu rushed forward and wielded his spear. At the same time, the dazzling light burst from Yoo Jonghyuk's body.

I watched the fascinating scene and recalled what Lee Jihye said in the latter half of Ways of Survival.

「 "Master has countless attributes. Hmm...the best is naturally Regressor. Other than that, Master of the Panacea and Enemy of Gods and Demons are excellent... huh? Which one is the most envious attribute? Ahaha, it is naturally..." 」

Manu's spearsmanship swept over Yoo Jonghyuk in vain.

「 "The Ruler of Amusement. It is that." 」

Yoo Jonghyuk slowly opened his eyes as he made the same expression I had constantly read about.

「 At that moment, Yoo Jonghyuk seemed to understand everything about this game. 」

Perhaps in Yoo Jonghyuk's eyes, all of Manu's attacks looked like a combination of 0s and 1s.
It was the legendary attribute, Ruler of Amusement. As long as this stage was a 'game', Yoo Jonghyuk was closer to a deity than any other constellation in the world.
