[3,000/3,000]

There were as many as 3,000 people on Cha Jin-hyeok’s channel.

There were a total of 500 preemptive awakening streamers in the earth server and open beta service, and among them, it was the overwhelming number one.

‘I heard that Egan Paul has about 3,000 viewers?’

Egan Paul was Earth’s greatest streamer.

From the open beta to the moment before Cha Jin-hyeok’s return, he was the undisputed No. 1 in the streamer category.

It was a streamer that boasted an overwhelming 1st place in the overall level ranking.

‘Why are you the same as me?’

Cha Jin-hyeok could not understand.

Even if he thought about it himself, he thought that he couldn’t be better at broadcasting than Egan Pole.

‘I don’t know why.’

It was to the point where I wondered if some celebrity had promoted it.

I don’t know why, but I didn’t feel bad.

The fact that the number of viewers is similar to that of Egan Paul means that it is number one.

I didn’t really like that fact.

he realized again.

‘I lack mental training.’

I thought that if I chose a non-combat type job, I would have less competitive spirit.

Still happy to be number 1.

He had to deny his heart to his will.

‘I want third place. really.’

Cha Jin-hyeok, who made a promise once again, went around Seoul and conducted broadcasts.

Cha Jin-hyeok’s level reached 15 before he knew it.

[Your level has risen.]

[You have reached LV 15.]

At the same time, a change occurred.

[Enter the formal awakening room.]

* * *

Open beta services are out of the ordinary people’s attention.

So was the earth.

At least, the people of ‘Orioles’, which have an environment almost identical to that of Earth, were interested in the Earth Server.

Although it was a minor server, there was one player who was still attracting quite a bit of attention.

– A madman appears on the Earth server.

– A dagger was thrust into the crown of the rabbit’s head. i see it myself

– What’s crazy about that?

– Occupation is streamer.

low level players.

It was too strong for a non-combat type player.

– It’s possible because it’s low level. Don’t you know that there are almost no boundaries between jobs at low levels?

– Magic. A streamer who mimics a combat system at a low level is unconditionally eliminated before level 100.

– Have you seen that concept of one-to-day? I’m not fooled anymore hahahaha

However, Cha Jin-hyeok was definitely an unusual streamer.

– The madman gets close to the monster and observes it. He opened his mouth to show how many red fox teeth he had. Even at that time he was level 2.

– Isn’t it Red Fox level 6?

– That’s why I’m a crazy person lol Thanks to the relay barrier, my finger wasn’t cut off.

The behaviors of streamers on servers in open beta service are roughly similar.

It’s impossible to play properly.

I couldn’t use the relay barrier freely and in the right place like Cha Jin-hyeok.

That’s why he rarely did dangerous actions such as getting too close to monsters or even hunting them himself.

Most of the cases were too tense in front of monsters and couldn’t say anything.

– The ability to utilize relay barriers is similarly high. If that’s not the case, I’d be a bitch.

– How is that possible in open beta?

– Maybe a regressor?

– Sounds crazy hahahahaha]

Cha Jin-hyeok’s regressor story was quickly buried.

– But the eyes to see the battle are really excellent. See a professional commentator.

– Anyway, it is certain that an unprecedented streamer has appeared.

Cha Jin-hyeok was the only streamer who showed this much in the open beta service.

Only Cha Jin-hyeok himself does not know.

It was also due to the circumstances that were unavoidable.

Cha Jin-hyeok was the top ranker, and everyone around him was also the top ranker.

To borrow Cha Jin-hyeok’s words, everyone was crazy.

Therefore, his standards were quite nonsensical.

For example, a criterion like ‘If you don’t go through seven near-death crises, you’ve been very peaceful’.

* * *

level 15.

Entered the formal awakening room.

I wanted my vision to be charred, but I was automatically transported to a dark space.

An angel with a beautiful face stood in front of me.

There was no excitement whatsoever.

Because that angel is just an AI.

“Please create a player name and awakening name.”

There’s a name I’ve been thinking of.

A name that contains the desire to rank 3 in a normal way.

“Kim Cheol-soo.”

“Kim Cheol-soo, is that right?”

“uh.”

“Are you sure you want to disclose player information? When released, the ranking will be listed on the ranking board.”

I shook my head.

There was nothing good that should have been revealed in the rankings.

There are more duties and more enemies.

It’s honorable, but that honor is no longer needed.

“denial.”

After going through formalities, I returned to my original position.

People were startled when they saw me suddenly appearing, but they didn’t care.

It’s a phenomenon that everyone will get used to by now.

‘Shall we take a look at the ranking board?’

──────────

[Ranking board (Korea map)]

[Sword type][Archer type][Physical type]… … [Healer series]… … [Other Series]

──────────

I was able to check the rankings for each class, and I checked the sword series.

──────────

[1st. Hyunseong Lee (LV:15)]

──────────

It seemed like a pretty welcome name.

We don’t have much personal acquaintance, but we met publicly and played together a few times.

‘The number 1 ranking is still level 15?’

He was on the same level as me.

By the way, I think I was around 15 at this time before returning.

‘My level up speed is really fast.’

Streamer is not the highest level of level up for nothing.

I was able to experience once again that the level-up speed increases in proportion to the number of viewers.

‘I’ll have to slow down a bit.’

I decided to speed things up a bit.

So far, will has triumphed over instinct.

* * *

3 days passed.

I was told to do it slowly (by Cha Jin-hyuk standards), but I have already reached level 19.

‘No matter how much I’m a streamer, why is leveling up so fast?’

──────────

[Swordsmanship]

[1st. Hyunseong Lee (LV:21)]

[Physical Arts]

[1st. Sanghee Kim(LV:21)]

──────────

Most of the ranks in the ranks are level 21.

Like the top ranks, they were similar to each other.

‘It seems everyone is still at a loss. Looking at the difference between me and me is only 2.’

His instinct is ‘lucky’.

His reason shouted ‘slower’.

The number of viewers is now 5,700.

The capacity limit was raised by 300 people per level.

Another day passed.

[The level has risen.]

[You have reached level 20.]

It was already level 20.

[Communication with viewers becomes possible.]

[Chat/sponsorship is available.]

At the same time as the chat window opened, Cha Jin-hyeok set the ‘no chat’ setting and closed all communication channels.

‘done.’

Cha Jin-hyeok’s role model was not ‘Egan Paul’ but ‘Secret Box’.

Whereas Egan Paul was a huge celebrity, Secret Box was a shrouded streamer.

‘I thoroughly concealed my identity by broadcasting only from a first-person point of view and did not communicate with the viewers.’

Some people used to curse the secret box as an icon of miscommunication, bitch my way, but the secret box was quite successful.

In the beginning, I received quite a lot of support for this concept, so I put up a building in Yeonhui-dong.

For reference, Yeonhui-dong will later become a land of gold dust.

Yeonhui-dong is the most expensive place in Seoul.

It was because there grew a guardian tree that created a safe zone.

‘Anyway, the important thing is that the secret box was able to have several buildings on such land.’

And he retired at a young age, ate well, and lived well.

Cha Jin-hyeok thought that Secret Box was only 3rd or 4th place in the streamer world.

I wasn’t even attacked by the Awoken Hunters.

‘No matter how much I think about it, that technique is the best.’

In the past and now, it was the building owner who was above the Creator.

“To commemorate reaching level 20, I want to enter the tutorial field.”

In the past, it was a place where I remember going in as soon as I woke up and dying several times, but I thought it would be too much for level 1, so I tried again from level 5.

* * *

A ‘tutorial field’ was created along the subway stations.

The place Cha Jin-hyeok was going to was Seoul Station.

As I stepped into the entrance of Seoul Station, I heard a notification.

[Tutorial Field: You can enter ‘Seoul Station’.]

[Do you want to enter ‘Seoul Station’?]

It is the same entrance, but players can enter ‘Seoul Station Field’ instead of Seoul Station.

‘I’m going to show you some tutorials, then I’ll get an [extra life] at the right time.’

Extra Life is a rare trait that can only be obtained in a few tutorial fields.

If you get it, it will nullify the attack corresponding to ‘instant death’ once.

‘If I had it during my days as the Sword King, I would have been able to do a much bolder battle.’

before entering the tutorial.

Cha Jin-hyeok checked his mind once again.

‘This is not because I want to be strong.’

It was for safety.

He thought so and moved on.

‘yes?’

Things unimaginable by old standards were unfolding.

Looking at it from the point of view of the relayer, the players were about level 15.

Still, there were three corpses.

There was blood on the floor.

‘Exactly two phrases.’

The two men were clearly corpses.

One woman lay down, but was breathing fine.

Chuck Bonnie was an assassin.

‘There are kids who pretend to be dead everywhere.’

I turned off my nerves because I didn’t think it would pose much of a threat.

‘Wow, a level 15 was killed by a dwarf monster.’

The monsters that appear at the entrance of Seoul Station are ‘dwarf monsters’.

A monster that is very easy to deal with because it is blind and has weak physical strength.

‘Honestly, he’s an easy guy to catch even at level 10.’

For reference, Cha Jin-hyeok before returning fought a dwarf monster at level 5.

Here and there, players around level 10-15 were fighting against the dwarf monsters with all their might.

‘The skills of the players at this time are worse than I thought.’

It was so long ago that I couldn’t remember it well, but it seemed weaker than his memory.

‘Ah, I want to fight.’

However, this was a heart that had to be corrected.

As a streamer, he decided to act like a streamer.

Cha Jin-hyeok turned his gaze and looked at one corner.

‘I’ll have to set up a broadcasting angle with them.’

Nine boys were seen.

They seemed to be in their mid-to-late teens, but they were all friends of their age.

Eight people stood in a circle with one person at the center.

I said it quickly before I wanted to fight directly.

“Then let’s start the real relay.”

* * *

The 8 boys were pretty hoarded to no avail.

Whoops!

He sighed and threw out the spear.

Despite his young age, it was quite admirable to see him quickly adapting to the changing world.

I moved towards them.

I set up a good route so that the dwarf demons wouldn’t attack me before approaching.

I gave only light advice to the young sprouts.

“Don’t make a sound and fight. They seem to be sensitive to hearing.”

As if they had heard me, the boys all shut their mouths.

Hearing my advice, they defeated the dwarf monsters one after another and were able to breathe.

“thank you.”

The boys were very grateful to me.

“What is your brother doing?”

“A streamer.”

“Eh? Do you have a job called a streamer?”

“Is it strange that there are streamers when there are spearmen?”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“How did you know you were sensitive to hearing?”

“You can see it when you observe it as a third person. The dwarves reacted whenever their friends made noise.”

I looked at the children through the ‘intermediary’s point of view’.

[LV15/Gosu 1/1st Spearman/Skill/No Achievement]

[LV14/Gosu 2/2nd Spearman/Skill/No Achievement]

It was not enough to be able to look at the job at a glance, so I was able to grasp the skill of the opponent.

It was a skill that was clearly superior to other streamers’ ‘intermediary’s gaze’.

Everyone was pretty much the same, but one was a bit unique.

[LV17/Captain Gosu/Nine Lords/Skills/No Achievements]

The job title was green.

Later, people attached a rating to each job, and green meant 5 stars.

Looking at his skills, he had a skill called ‘9-person barrier’.

It seemed to be the ability to apply a large buff when 9 people in a party were together.

‘Umm, it’s time for romance.’

It looked pretty cute playing like that with friends.

Well, it was a trash job in the sense that synergy could only be created when 9 people were together, but it wasn’t something I would argue about.

I did my job.

“It seems that there is synergy when 9 people are together. Dealing with dwarf monsters seems to be the most stable thing here.”

I gave my own commentary while adding advice that anyone could give.

“There, there, the friend at the end, shout and drag it. Because your hearing is sensitive.”

or,

“There, the friend in the middle steps forward and takes on you. The distance is too far now.”

or

They did a pretty good job on my words and were able to hunt several dwarves.

After a while, the boys who had hunted all the nearby dwarf monsters came to me after packing the items that the dwarf monsters dropped in their inventory.

The boy who is the leader of them, the Lord of the Nine, said to me.

“Hyung, you’re a streamer right?”

“that’s right. It’s on the air now.”

“I think you are really great.”

“… … Yes?”

“Yes. I felt like I was being tutored with some kind of tweezers. Thank you so much.”

“… … Yes?”

“Thank you, Lord, for telling me what to do.”

I didn’t do much, but the kids were so grateful that I was embarrassed.

“thank you!”

“thank you!”

But then, I felt a strange presence behind me.

‘yes?’

It’s a crude energy to say something, but I’m not sure if I should call it life.

I glanced back.

A woman was brandishing a long knife at me.

It was the woman who had been lying down pretending to be dead earlier.

I knew it would be like this.
