Martial Arts Returnee's Game Broadcast

Chapter 41

Speedmaster couldn't help but sigh.

“Ugh, I have to be doing this right now.”

Hahahaha

Did you make a wrong promise and now you can't even touch it?

Is the Silent Swordmaster not showing any signs of dying yet?

Is Banyogok not happening by the end of this year?

No girlfriend yet?

“Girlfriend? You’re banned, you little punk.”

Actual defamation, hahaha.

That’s some heavy stuff^^

The virgin period must also be pretty heavyᅲᅲ

“Why are you all like this today? Did a bunch of suicide bombers join us? You guys are virgins too!”

Not true.

I hit a home run yesterday.

The home run was when the last batter hit a home run in the 9th inning.

I was in a foreign car with a guy I know yesterday.

You don’t have a guy you know. If you think you were in a foreign car with a guy you know, get out of that car immediately.

Hahahahahahaha

Hahahahaha

Your guy doesn’t have a foreign car. It’s a rental, and your guy’s precious part-time wages just evaporated.

That’s a little too sad.

So tragicᅮᅮᅮ

A new field and new events.

With new quests and new Yokai appearing,

the Silent Swordmaster’s stream.

If only I could catch up once it starts,

Speedmaster felt confident, but instead of showing off a cool performance,

he was left mentally exhausted by the suicidal terrorists

from the evil Su-Gwi-ja-Pok-byung (Suicide Bombers).

‘If I play the game, I can make a mad movie, and those evil ones will calm down.’

Still, he couldn't afford to miss the Silent Swordmaster's stream, which only came once a month like a monthly event.

‘Talent is talent, after all.’

The road to the Yokai King’s palace.

Unlike the fields in In-Gye (the human world) where common half-Yokai like blood-gui (Blood Ghost), Su-Gwi, and Yeok-Gwi (Reverse Ghosts) appeared with uniform patterns,

the mobs in the Yokai field were

completely different in appearance and attack patterns, with all kinds of half-Yokai and Yokai popping up.

Which field did Yokai just appear in like that?

The final field.

For real.

But they weren’t mummies, right?

“Then can you fight one-on-one with an ogre that hasn’t eaten for a week?”

Ah, I totally get it now.

That’s a solid first-rate teacher for you.

The monsters, like the thin, bony, and gaunt creatures with visible bones, were relatively weaker, but

compared to the Blood Ghosts, Su-Gwi, and Yeok-Gwi,

there was no doubt they were much stronger.

“Last time, she showed off a bunny hop, but now she’s showing off some weird aggro management skills.”

Aggro??

Was she using that?

She’s talking about things only she knows.

Let us know too, Ms. Speedmaster.

The pace is too fast, Sensei.

“You know what aggro is, right? Aggro. The level of provocation or threat. If the aggro is high, mobs start rushing like crazy and using stronger skills.”

Okay, okay.

Got it, done.

“Usually, if you hit a basic attack, a critical hits, or even just make yourself visible, aggro increases, right?”

Eh.

Yep.

Got it.

“But if you don’t hit a basic attack, don’t land a critical, and disappear from the line of sight, what happens? The aggro that went up will go back down, right?”

Eh.

And?

We can’t even land a basic attack, so why does aggro always go through the roof and we get hit all the time?

“Yeah, that’s because you’re bad at the game. When you see a mosquito, even if it doesn’t bite you, you still get mad and aggro it, right? We’re like that mosquito to the monsters.”

Ahahaha

For real, Sensei is the real deal.

This explanation is so clear.

As expected, Sensei.

First-rate teachers really are different.

Speedmaster, adjusting his explanation to the viewers' level,

now shifted to the main point.

‘Can such practical combat sense just be called talent? No matter how I look at it, it’s a skill honed from facing real monsters from another dimension.’

If his guess was right,

Silent Swordmaster would be an active Awakener with real battle experience

fighting against Gate monsters, almost like real-world Yokai.

But for that kind of experience,

at least ten years of experience would be required.

‘Even though I don’t know her exact age, looking at her appearance, she’s definitely in her mid-twenties or younger. To have gained ten years of experience from that age...’

No matter how late, it would have been mid-teens.

That would mean she’d been hunting monsters from then on.

‘According to the Awakener Association’s rules, minors shouldn’t be active as Awakener.’

If he mentioned this to the viewers,

they’d definitely become curious,

but Speedmaster kept it to himself,

because considering her experience and age,

it would bring up a hypothesis that couldn’t possibly be true.

‘She must’ve lied about her age or traveled from a different country where they didn’t have strict Awakener regulations.’

Even though they were practically gangsters,

at least the K-Awakener Guild and the Association

kept their territories safe,

while other countries were overwhelmed with monsters due to vast territories and had to rely on Awakener children to fight.

‘Could she be a former soldier from one of those countries, fighting against those monsters?’

Suddenly, the stream chat caught his attention.

But now that I think about it, this girl is really beautiful.

She’s top star level beautiful, right?

Doesn’t she look really sexy when she runs, pressing a straw hat with one hand?

I think it’s even sexier when she wipes the blood off her sword and puts it back in the sheath.

She looks like a mixed-race beauty, doesn’t she?

She looks like a blend of Western and Eastern beauty.

She really does look like a mixed-race beauty.

Eastern and Western blood, a mixed-race beauty.

Suddenly, Speedmaster recalled the recent news about

the Eastern European alliance’s successful Gate campaign.

[Success of Belarus Gate Expedition]

[They advanced over 20 km]

[Is the dream of restoring Eastern European territories becoming a reality?]

The overseas news reported a major victory in the Eastern European front,

which made Speedmaster wonder. What if Silent Swordmaster came from that region?

‘...That’s such a sad story. I really need to treat her better.’

The past where he’d doubted her for not streaming on purpose

seemed even more shameful now.

Next time, if they ever do a joint stream, he promised to take better care of her.

Speedmaster made that resolution,

and sent a formal joint stream invitation to Silent Swordmaster’s streaming account.

But he didn’t know yet.

That Silent Swordmaster’s inbox was already full of 999 unread emails.

Emails from fanclub presidents asking her to take the position,

chat manager applications,

V-Tuber editor applications,

and joint stream requests from other streamers like I Hae-chan, 2-Dahye, and Eom Gil-dong.

And so, today again,

Silent Swordmaster’s inbox grew with yet another sad email

that would never be read.
