Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 1 Episode 104
36. Sanghyeon’s Reward (3)
A splitting headache struck me.
At the same time, the memories of yesterday were blurry.
‘Yesterday was fun.’
Jia smiled as she recalled yesterday’s events, even though her hangover was pounding at her head.
We became friends once again while drinking yesterday.
I talked and laughed a lot more than when I first started drinking.
These two might have had a really good relationship. I haven’t had anyone open my heart for a while. These people are somehow different.
They seem like people with warm hearts.
If you say this, someone – usually people like Joo-hyuk – will jokingly say that only dead people have cold hearts.
But what can I do?
There were only dead people in the company.
This entire country may be made up entirely of dead people.
No, I didn’t even know it was a country only for the dead.
The living are treated worse than the dead.
The words of the living were not listened to.
Only the words of a dead man have power.
The reason why the endless cycle of working overtime finally stopped was because a co-worker died from overwork.
The first thought that came to my mind that day was, ‘Thank goodness.’ Someone had died before me, and something would finally change.
Someone will finally listen to that guy.
That was the first thought that came to my mind.
Before I knew it, I was dead.
me too.
“… … By the way, the ceiling feels unfamiliar.”
Jia, who was lying down and lost in random thoughts, blinked and looked at the ceiling.
Was the fluorescent light in my room like that?
The wallpaper is a little different too.
“!”
Whoosh.
Jia suddenly stands up and turns her head.
‘… … What, what!? ‘Where am I?’
Green grass and trees blocking the window, sunlight coming through the waves of leaves.
This is the view of the room I have seen for the first time in my life.
Jia covered her mouth.
‘no way… … .’
Perhaps that speculation was correct.
* * *
“sorry.”
Jia bowed her head and sat down at the table.
On the table was a beef tomato stew that Joohyuk had cooked.
The sour and savory smell made me want to take a bite right away.
Gia apologized first.
“hey. If you do that, you’ll be in real trouble. uh? “It’s a small crab.”
Joo-hyuk thought it was time to say something to Jia.
“… … .”
Jia couldn’t even respond at all today.
“Didn’t someone wait in front of your house yesterday? “What would you have done if you were alone?”
“… … !”
Jia’s eyes widened.
So that’s why you brought me here. I thought you brought me here because you couldn’t find the key.
“man… … .”
“Yeah. He’s a little shorter than Sang-Hyeon──”
Joo-hyuk described it this way and that way. Of course, it was Sang-hyeon who saw it, but Joo-hyuk talked as if he saw it himself.
‘That kid… … all the way home?’
According to the description, it was my ex-boyfriend.
There were already a few messages on my phone today. I deleted everything without even reading it.
I guess it was about coming home.
I told you not to contact me or want to see me. What on earth did you come all the way to my house to say?
“How did you break up?”
Sanghyeon sat down next to Jia and asked vaguely.
“Uh, how… … .”
Jia asked back in surprise.
“The expression… … You can see it all from this angle. “I didn’t see it to see it.”
Sanghyun pointed to Jia’s cell phone.
“I wonder how we broke up and became such a ‘bastard’.”
“It’s long, so to speak.”
“Yeah. It’ll be long.”

Sanghyun seemed not to have much intention of listening, so he answered and began to inhale the tomato stew.
“Well, thank you. You brought me here because you were worried I might be in danger… … .”
Eat.
Sanghyun and Joohyuk just smiled and didn’t make any further noise.
After finishing the meal, Sang-Hyeon took her to Jia’s house and tapped her on the shoulder and spoke to her.
“When you have time, tell me. Then I’ll tell you too.”
“… … “What are you going to tell me?”
“My first love.”
Shh.
Sang-Hyeon smiled, revealing his white teeth.
But why?
It looks sadder than crying.
“yes…….”
Sanghyun waved his hand and went up again.
Jia stared at his back for a long time.
“Almonds… … first love.”
When you’re 28, the story of your first love seems like an old story.
For some reason, I was very curious.
“I’m curious.”
* * *
“Did you have a good time?”
Joo-hyuk, who was washing dishes, asks the question from the back of his head.
“Oh. It went well. I was going to do the dishes.”
“I can’t see it piling up. I.”
“That’s right.”
Sanghyun scratched his head and sat down on the sofa.
The sunlight penetrating through the leaf patterns was warm. It felt like a vacation that started yesterday and continues until today.
“Oh, I made an appointment. With Mr. Bubblegum.”
After finishing washing the dishes, Joo-hyuk shook off his rubber gloves and spoke.
“Two hours before tomorrow’s broadcast time. So, 5 o’clock would be fine. We’ll meet when we enter This World.”
“ah. “It’s online.”
“Oh. We’re only doing duos anyway.”
Mergers between streamers usually take place online. This is especially true if the purpose is to play a game, and even more so if the opponent is bubble gum.
Because Bubblegum rarely does offline mergers.
Even though he knew that, Sang-Hyeon smacked his lips with a little regret.
“If the merger goes well, we will be able to meet in person, so don’t worry.”
“okay.”
Joo Hyuk said this yesterday.
If the merger response is good, they plan to become advertising models together.
Originally, bubble gum was the sole advertising model, but Fantasia said it was considering almond as an additional model.
First of all, the chemistry between the two was important.
‘That’ll be fine.’
Sang-Hyeon had been watching Bubblegum’s broadcast almost every day for three years, so he wasn’t worried about their chemistry being lacking.
Then, Sang-Hyeon suddenly tilted his head.
“uh… … ?”
“why?”
“Come to think of it, what am I doing on air today?”
Because he only thought about getting to the diamond rank.
I didn’t think about what happened next.
Joo-hyuk also touched his chin for a moment.
“It doesn’t seem to be a simple problem today. Should we have a meeting?”
I think this could be a turning point for Almond Broadcasting.
* * *
Even at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, Almond’s broadcast was not turned on.
In the community, hostility toward almonds was once again creeping up.
[Honestly, Diamond, Almond in Master Q? Isn’t this a bit odd?]
[If you play without an almond brain and meet the master, you’ll get kicked out]
[I got a discount from the master and got a real education right away lol]
[Physically, it was originally up to Diamond]
[Honestly, it’s a bit too much for the Diamond Master queue ㅋㅋㅋ]
[At least it seems like they won’t kill you like they used to]
We have already forgotten that he broke the electromagnetic wave record by a whopping 4 times, and are now talking about his limitations.
This is a common scene in gaming communities.
Such posts started piling up until 7pm, right before Almond went on air.
[This kid is now scared and playing another game lol My hand is a sword]
[ㄹㅇㅋ Almond can’t play Battle Large anymore]
[Aren’t these guys the Dark Nuts group that are deliberately provoking us to start a large almond battle? Lol]
[Almond will do Kingdom you idiots]
[Kingdom Dancer, get out of here lol]
[Honestly, it’s obvious that it’ll be a hit in the master queue, but would you do it?]
Eventually, there was even talk that Almond would be scared and not do Battle Large.
“Be patient.”
Almond burst out laughing.
This kind of thing was so familiar now.
Rather, without articles like that, I would feel powerless.
“I’m going in.”
“Okay~”
After quickly checking out the community posts, the almonds went into the capsule.
The broadcast did not turn on until 8 p.m.
Even though the broadcast was on at a different time than usual, many people flocked to the show.
-No, what is it, a true story broadcast at 8 p.m.?
-0 Turn on the broadcast 1 hour before you wake up lol.
-Hey, did you get arrogant as soon as you put the diamond on it?
-It’s a random broadcast again, what the f*ck ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Kiya As soon as I put on the diamond, I immediately started thinking about it!
– Ranked #1 by Forbes as a streamer who never loses his original mind!
-Wow, almonds!
-It’s nice to turn it on when I get off work, but what?
-Why do unemployed people turn it on when they get off work?
-Ahahaha!
-aha! (Meaning: Almond Shack Hi!)
The chat scroll goes up and up.
Contrary to community opinion, the only people in the chat window are happy to see him.
[Current viewers 3.8 thousand]
Close to 4,000 viewers entered as soon as the broadcast was turned on. This is a very small number compared to when the DIA promotion match was broadcast.
‘Of course. A decline of this magnitude.’
Almond wasn’t too upset, as expected.
The Diamond Promotion Match was a legendary content that was watched by not only Koreans but also foreigners, and the current Almond broadcast is just a game broadcast without any purpose.
So it was natural that it would return to its original size.
“Tha!”
After the intro music ended, there were still quite a few viewers.
[Current viewers: 5.3 thousand]
When you start the game you will probably have a little over 6-7 thousand, which is a pretty good defense level.
-Ahahaha!
-aha!
-Hiyo
-Omen
As always, Ruby Sword kicked off the sponsorship start.
[Ruby Sword donated ‘10,000 won’!]
[Almond-nim, when will you and Bubblegum-nim merge!?]
“Ah. That’s tomorrow. Today, I’m going to try out Diamond. Since my MMR is high, I think I’ll probably get the Master rank as well.”
-Wow master ㄷㄷ
-MMR seems really high.
-Master Kwon King a?
-Master turned on lol
-The master is Evaji. Are you going to become a professional gamer?
Master Kwon Wang.
It’s not that I haven’t thought about it. Since I got Diamond this quickly, it’s only natural and logical to think about going for Master.
However, Master is the area that professionals aim for. Almond is a streamer, not a professional gamer.
This was the main topic of today’s meeting with Joo Hyuk.
Now it was more important to have fun broadcasting.
Even though he was stigmatized for not being able to challenge the master because he was ‘scared’, it was more important for the viewers to enjoy it.
I will write about that level of stigma with a smile.
“Master promotion is a bit difficult, and I’ve been running hard so far, so today is fun mode!”
Sanghyeon firmly drew a line.
Meanwhile, there is one viewer who is disappointed in another aspect.
[King Chi-man, the president of the association, donated ‘10,000 won’!]
[omg… … Another battle?]
“Ah… … Kingdom is um… … .”
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Kingdom went to America ㅠ
-What about America! It must be heaven!
-Is it worth living there!? Emilia!?!
[Rozenita donated ‘10,000 won’!]
[Almond. You… abandoned me?]
Support from viewers from the Kingchman Association poured in one after another.
‘I guess I’ll have to do it later.’
Almond started the game, thinking that Kingdom would do it again someday.
It was my first time at Diamond rank.
“Okay. The game we’re playing today is~~~ Battle Large!”
Boom──
Battle Raj’s unique drum sound resonates with his lively greeting.
At the same time, the scenery changed in an instant.
* * *
-Enjoy the game? I’m afraid I’ll get robbed by the master, so I’m taking out insurance.
-You know that you can’t play intense games, right? Lol
-Insurance Evande
There were a few sarcastic chats about Almond’s declaration of fun gaming.
It was a natural side effect of the increased number of viewers.
Naturally, special medicines were ignored for these side effects.
Almond, befitting his declaration of enjoyment, charged into the arsenal from the first game.
“I’m going with the weapons!”
The Armory playthrough wasn’t much different from the Platinum queue.
Anyway, it’s a sword and arrow battle. There weren’t many people in the Diamond~Master range who could handle Almond in that regard.
What’s different about Platinum is the number of people.
There aren’t many people.
Like experts who are familiar with operations, are they giving up on the arsenal right away?
In any case, Almond blew up the armory and, as usual, followed Blue Zone and killed those who fell behind.
Even though there wasn’t a kill mission, I got a whopping 30 kills.
30 kills in Diamond Q. This wasn’t a fun game at all.
‘uh……?’
As I played frantically, a number suddenly appeared.
[First place]
The first edition was first place.
And then the next board.
[First place]
Next step.
[First place]
‘What is this?’
Almond was taken aback by the game, which turned out to be easier than expected.
[Diamond IV Promotion Match is now possible!]
Almond’s badge, which came in first place even in the last round, shone brightly.
I’m ready for the promotion match.
-Crazy lol
-He said he wouldn’t go to Master haha.
-Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
-AI Lovey: You get out, Master.
– I skipped the promotion match again after three roundsㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-The promotion match is copied!
I was worried about almonds at this point.
‘Should I go to Master?’
fantasy,
