Chapter 227 – Part 1
I didn’t get a score in the first event I participated in to warm up my hands, but I didn’t mind and went out to find the event I had in mind in advance.
Of course, it wasn’t easy.
I don’t know what made me so attached to it, but a woman named Xenia asked if she had any intention of learning Lel properly, because she kept flirting.
So she had to send it back with the words that the place and time did not seem right for such a conversation.
So subtly, no, I removed the existence that I was very concerned about and headed to the rhythm game corner.
Unfortunately, the booth where the event was held was already occupied by passengers.
“Hey, you made the map really tight.”
She was a woman with bobbed hair, but coincidentally, she was the one chosen by Senna, thinking that this was also something that Sena should be wary of.
Are you good at rhythm games?
I cautiously approached it with the intention of taking a look at the skills of the one who might become the strongest competitor in the rhythm game category.
“Then, it’s time soon…”
“Hey, how are you?”
It wasn’t long before I tried to move her fingers, which had been clattering, onto her keyboard. In a moment, the short-haired girl responded to my voice and turned her head toward me.
I don’t know if it’s because of what I put on her eyes at that moment, but I could see it very clearly.
At first, the expression that seemed to ask why I was disturbing changed to a kind smile after checking my face, as if it was like that when.
It was a sudden change, as if he had changed his mask, so he tried to laugh at the moment, but he continued to say what he had been trying to hold back.
“Well, if you don’t mind, can I watch what you’re doing from the side?”
Of course it would be rude.
Even knowing that, it was because he couldn’t refuse to ask such a question, and if he was such a strong competitor, it would be better to distract him with a mental attack like that.
“Yes? Ah, yes yes…”
“Thank you.”
Her facial expressions and gestures were quite awkward, but she said it was okay to look around, so she pulled a chair she was playing with and sat at an appropriate distance.
Meanwhile, the woman wearing a name tag with ‘Rainy’ written around her neck was arguing with the viewers in her room.
“No, when did I say Hellele…”
He seemed to think he wouldn’t hear it if he whispered it in a whisper, but unfortunately he heard everything.
Of course, she pretended not to know and laughed moderately.
Rainy, who was taking a deep breath and breathing deeply, seemed to be nervous because of the fact that I was watching from the side, and soon pressed her space bar button.
Apparently, there are a lot of people and time is limited, so the number of challenges for events that measure records in this way and compete with them was limited.
In the case of this event, it was a way that you could challenge up to three times in total.
Anyway, in her first performance, which started with a crackling and upbeat sound, a woman named Rainy clearly showed the reason why she volunteered to become a professional rhythm game streamer.
‘No···’
It must be my first time playing, but why are you so good at it?
If it was Sena, Rainey was relatively adept at passing through a map where she would have died without taking even 20 percent.
Still, he limped a little in the last section.
“Wow… This is a bit difficult…”
It’s a bit difficult.
She tried to laugh out loud at the fact that she couldn’t do anything but that, but she held it back and put an admiring expression on her face instead.
Then Rainey, who glanced at my reaction and confirmed it through a side glance, said ‘Huh!’ And let out her snort.
“Anyway, the map seems familiar to me, so I’ll try it for real.”
That would have been my first try, but I just memorized it all over again…
‘This is why people laugh at me when I say I’m going to win.’
It certainly deserved it.
I don’t know what the others are like, but neither Rainy in front of me nor Xenia, whom I had dealt with earlier, were easy opponents.
Compared to that, this side… Although Senna is there, I, who is the weak one, is clinging to her side, so of course I look weak.
Rainy, who kept glancing at my face while smiling bitterly at that thought, soon started a second attempt.
And unlike the first attempt, where he accidentally died at the end, Rainey completed his second attempt perfectly.
The record that came out like that was naturally ranked in the first place.
Although not many people have tried it yet… To be honest, I didn’t think that record would be broken easily just because there were more challengers.
Perhaps, it would be difficult for quite a few people to complete the map.
“Ah… Something is a bit unfortunate…”
It’s like that, so it’s natural for anyone watching from the side to laugh.
“You’ve had three chances, right? Then I’ll try one more last time.”
And then the record was further reduced there.
“Hmm, are you a little nervous?”
Looking at the record on the monitor and muttering that for a while, Rainey let out a sigh or exclamation with an ‘ah’, then stood up from his seat.
“Seo-sama will do it too, right?”
Saying that with a smile at me seemed like he was elated and told me to try it once if I had the confidence to do better than him.
“Yeah, well… I have to try.”
“How did you play this game?”
“Yeah, just a little bit for practice…?”
“Hmm, that’s right.”
He nodded as if he knew how much it was, but soon, with an expression full of interest, he stood still and seemed to be shouting, ‘Compliment one shot!’
Is it an intention to earn points by watching what I do, comforting me that I can do better, or praising me for doing well?
Because the intentions were clearly visible, rather than feeling nasty, it was rather cute.
‘Well, at this rate, I’ve seen enough…’
As I said, it wouldn’t hurt to try it once.
Even if I lose this opportunity, I can try two more times.
‘How many times was it earlier?’
Was it 8x speed?
So I also set it to 8x speed.
So, he walked right behind me.
“Hmm, do you want to try the same as me? It must be difficult…”
Hearing that, I thought for a moment about increasing the speed, but I decided to try it at 8x speed.
“Whoa…”
Before I started, I took a light deep breath, then reached out and pressed the space bar softly.
With that, a countdown began on the monitor screen, and at the same time it turned to zero, the screen began to move frantically.
Of course, moving like crazy means that others will see it that way, and I just see it all.
That’s why I didn’t listen to the sound and ‘watched’ and ‘hit’.
“···Uh?”
It was written a little loosely, so it was really nice to hear the stupid sound that flowed through it.
It was so sweet that it couldn’t be compared to the noisy music that resonated through the headset.
“Ugh… This map is definitely a bit difficult.”
Thanks to that, I was able to show a sincere smile the moment I finished the first performance safely.
“But I think I can speed it up a little more…”
Then, after mumbling, I set the speed to 16x, the maximum speed, and immediately started the second attempt.
And just that was enough.
The moment I safely finished my second attempt, I felt it when I saw the record floating on the screen.
This record won’t be broken even if Hal Abi, a streamer specializing in rhythm games, comes along.
“Oh, number one.”
That’s how I cast the magic of installment and used the power of the store that I had pulled up to farm points here and there.
Of course, not all were like that.
There were a few items that couldn’t be helped with the power of the store.
It was the case with sports that depend heavily on luck, such as yachu.
‘If I had known it would be like this, I would have saved that four-leaf clover then…’
Then, every time the dice were rolled, I would have been told not to cheat.
I felt regretful about that fact, but unexpectedly, my luck wasn’t too bad.
‘Isn’t it good enough to win 4 times by sticking together 6 times?’
In addition, I was able to earn points quite sweetly in concave.
Similar to Yachu, Omok was also one of the difficult sports to borrow from the store, but I won 7 consecutive victories in a row, as if the time I drew a line in my notebook at school and in the military and did Ya Mae Omok didn’t go anywhere.
“The winning streak is really big. Ah, it would have been nice if we had 8 consecutive wins…”
[I’m still doing well enough haha]
[But honestly, the first and ninth editions were a bit wasteful haha]
[Yes, if I had won just one of the two, I would have been craving the bonus for 8 consecutive wins]
[But you’re doing much better than when you practiced. Are you in the physical constitution?]
“It’s more like that rather than actual battle constitution. Why does it come out when you read martial arts novels?”
[?]
[A martial arts suddenly appears here?]
[Namju… Martial arts… Ugh, the hair…]
[Seo, did you see that…?]
[Around Romance Woowook;;]
[This is not martial arts!]
“I usually hide 30% of my skills. That’s what it is.”
Anyway, I think I’ve earned as much as I did with this, but what about Senna?
I thought it would be quicker to ask the viewers rather than wander around aimlessly looking for one Sena in this wide place, so I asked the action cam I was holding in my hand.
“By the way, what is Sena-noona doing now? How did she get some points?”
[Looking at it]
[I came to see you a little while ago, but I was throwing kitchen knives]
[Although Sena is usually the type to get beaten up a bit, she doesn’t come along physically wherever she goes lol]
[Laughs]
[I came to see it, but I’m still playing kitchen knife? It seems to be on a winning streak]
“Is it so?”
Fortunately, I had been there once before, so it wasn’t too difficult to find.
When I went to the booth like that, I saw that one of the booths was occupied and was sitting.
It was in the middle of the game, so it was with a closed mouth and a concentrated face.
Not even dreaming that I was watching him, as I was about to look at that closely focused face, for some reason, a desire to press down on something hidden in my pocket suddenly welled up, but I held it in for now.
I wanted to see a face that was at a loss of what to do with embarrassment as if I had been concentrating, but apart from that, I didn’t want to see a face that was sad because I couldn’t win.
Unfortunately, as I tried to hold onto the remote control, the game ended unexpectedly quickly.
“Ahh! Incredible physical control!!!”
Maybe she instinctively sensed that it was a crisis situation, because every time Senna threw her cleaver, it went to the other character and stuck to it.
[Come out Um.P.Con!!]
[Awakened Senna]
[Yusena of the workshop is different!]
[Team ss! Team ss! Team ss! Team ss! Team ss!]
[What rank is this team now?]
“I will. Does anyone know what rank we are in now?”
Are you happy to win?
I lifted her arm so high that the headset she was wearing flew off the back and jumped up from the chair she was sitting on, so I pressed the button on her remote control without missing the timing.
Since the distance between me and Sena is quite long, I honestly wasn’t sure if the radio waves from the remote control would reach Sena in her booth.
‘It’s reached.’
Fortunately, I was able to reach it.
As soon as I pressed the button on her remote control, Sena, who jumped up from her chair, sat down again as if it had never happened.
Her face, flushed red from her bewilderment, was a bonus.
Then, as she did, she turned her head around and started looking for something about her… If there was one thing that Senna overlooked, it was that her main camera in her official broadcast was still looking at her.
“Ah! The campaign participants must be very happy! But what are they looking for?”
Because of that, I couldn’t help but want that kind of sound to come out of the caster’s mouth… Finally, even Sena, who found me, opened her eyes wide, it was broadcast as it is and went out.
“I wondered what you were looking for, and you were looking for a younger brother who made a team with you! It looks like you wanted to brag about your victory to your younger brother!”
Inside her booth, her caster’s voice seemed not to be heard, so I smiled at Senna, who didn’t know how to take her trembling eyes away from me, and raised her hand as a sign of encouragement.
That’s because I hadn’t even started yet.
