Chapter 58
In fact, not being able to speak was somewhat of a joke, but it was also true that mentioning certain things could get the channel deleted.
And for someone like me, a small-time streamer rather than a big corporation, the risk of having my channel deleted was high.
Therefore, I made sure to mention it as carefully as possible.
"Alright, let's check the opponent's champion. This is one I’m good at too."
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: Let’s not mention it, okay?]
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: Okay?]
[Okay]
[I want to watch DaMa’s stream for a long time...]
[It would be sad if I get banned...]
[환희: Don’t mention it, everyone.]
[강후민입니다: Why are they so united? What is this, I wanna cause some trouble.]
[Trouble-making is 강평 ᄏᄏ]
[Ah, 강니키 just hold back a bit.]
I made sure to avoid mentioning the man with pink hair and focused on checking the opponent's champion.
Then, shortly after, the opponent’s champion appeared.
It was a champion with large breasts and light blue hair.
She was playing a guzheng with both hands.
"Wow, the chest. But why is it a guy?"
I did say she had large breasts, but I never said she was a woman.
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: Wow, body.]
[Heh heh.]
[I want to rub my face into her chest.]
[No, the chest is crazy, damn.]
[환희: That’s definitely a chest...]
[Lesbians, stop giving off that Han-nyeo vibe...]
[Han-nyeo vibe, it’s crazy.]
Since the moment I first saw this champion, I still didn’t understand.
I couldn’t figure out why she was a man instead of a woman.
‘Maybe she was a woman in the original world, right?’
With that hopeful thought, I spoke up.
Because I had to say what I needed to say.
"Looks like we’ll just win smoothly, right?"
I wasn’t lying.
From the start, the champion itself, Sejinpin, was definitely at a greater advantage.
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: What’s with the confidence ᄃᄃ]
[But ‘Sejinpin’ is definitely more advantageous...]
[If it were another champion, maybe, but ‘Sejinpin’ is definitely an upgrade.]
[These bastards putting in quotation marks, lol.]
[We know even without emphasizing it, haha.]
[Sejinpin is definitely more advantageous.]
[환희: Since it’s been buffed recently, the skill coefficient is way higher for Sejinpin.]
With that confidence, I set up my runes.
There was nothing special to change.
It was a matter of pride, after all.
"Let’s finish this quickly and make it to the top 16."
It would be way too embarrassing to fall out in the 32nd round.
I wasn’t some average player.
Thinking that, I seriously started my lane phase.
"Here, use Q to push the lane, while also keeping up the harassment."
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: Popular matchups always start fast.]
[For real, haha.]
[But is Quattro famous, or is he Pat and Matt?]
[First time I’ve heard of him, seems like a no-name.]
[Mangming: He’s not some nobody, he comfortably has around 2,000 regular viewers.]
[What?]
[2,000...? Damn, our DaMa only has about 300 regular viewers, and now DaMa is some huge nobody?]
[Harin: Calm down.]
I sighed, shaking my head at the chaos in the chat.
The manager would handle it well.
If I started worrying about that, there’d be nothing else I could do.
I thought that, and after a moment:
[We’ll be starting soon. Please join the private channel.]
I entered the private channel.
And there was a streamer named Quattro.
“He’s supposed to be famous, right?”
Listening to what Mangming had said, he seemed famous, but it didn’t matter much.
What mattered was winning the 1v1.
Who cares if the streamer has a lot or few viewers?
I thought like that and started the 1v1.
“Level 1 decides the game.”
The result was surprisingly anticlimactic.
The game was decided at level 1.
The opponent, a male champion with octopus tentacles, probably thought that facing me, a character shooting arrows while rolling around, was impossible, so he went for the early game all-in.
And this was the result.
[Enemy slain!]
[Ba-in -> Illaoi]
“Justice has been served.”
[????️전지좆능한크툴루: Is this what you call justice?]
[Ughhhhh]
[Why is the AD carry winning, dammit?]
[Mangming: Anyone who’s played top lane knows how unfair this result is.]
[For real, haha.]
[As expected, bold statements from Mangming.]
[Harin: If Illaoi had played just a bit better, she had a chance to win, damn.]
[Why are these assholes cheering for the opponent, haha?]
[Because the champion’s Ba-in.]
[강후민입니다: Damn water glasses, piece of shit.]
[Temporary departure!]
[Hey hey, calm down.]
[Why are you so mad?]
Maybe it was because they’d been through a lot, but the viewers had gotten overly invested.
Of course, no amount of over-investment would change the fact that close-range combat beats long-range.
“Alright, let’s quickly check the top 8 match-ups.”
Now that I’d figured out the level of the other participants, waiting seemed like a waste of time.
The only thing left to do was win the tournament as fast as possible.
As time passed, before I knew it, only eight people remained, including me.
Considering there were 128 players at the start, it felt like a very small number now.
And among them, there was one person I knew.
“Sa-rok is still in it.”
I thought they’d be eliminated soon.
Feeling a bit disappointed, I watched the process of the match-ups being drawn.
Now, the opponent who will face DaMa, who made it this far, is... Sa-rok!
By some twist of fate, I ended up facing Sa-rok in the top 8.
I didn’t expect to meet him here.
But I wasn’t afraid.
“Since we’re meeting, I’ll show you the difference in skill.”
That was all I could think of—showing him the difference in our abilities.
