Genius Archer Streaming Season 1 Episode 157
55. Proposal (2)
Joohyuk was worried.
‘How can someone who hasn’t even tried ranking yet participate in a competition?’
Although he believes in almonds, he is not a fanatic.
I believe that I can discern right from wrong.
Almond is still clearly a beginner on the reel. If he goes out like this, he won’t be able to show his skills.
‘It could be a big blow to the image.’
What if Almond, who maintains the image of a talented broadcaster, goes out and loses miserably?
I can’t guarantee the image after that.
I have seen many streamers who stick to a solid skill stream, but fall a few times in competitions and then turn to clowning.
If the transition goes well, that’s great, but usually it falls flat.
It’s rare for someone with good skills to also be good at clowning.
This is why Director Oh said it was bad news.
“How much time is left until the competition?”
“I have plenty of time. “It’s three weeks.”
3 weeks.
Considering that Almond smashed the Battle Large Diamond rank in just one week, it might be enough time… … .
‘The situation is different with Battle Raj.’
Battle Large is a game with simple rules and a low barrier to entry. There is no particularly special operating method, and there is no period of adaptation.
But the reel is different.
Siege warfare in particular is different.
You have to get used to team play and learn a lot of operational moves to play properly.
“… …Why almonds?”
Joo Hyuk asked somewhat defensively.
Because I thought it would be best not to participate in most cases.
“hmm… … In order to ensure fairness in this streamer competition, tios are determined by rank. Right now, we have Silver’s Bubble Gum, Platinum’s Miho, Master’s Strawberry Shooter, and Diamond’s Takoyaki.”
“ah… … Are almonds in bronze position?”
“yes. Bronze is possible as long as it is Bronze or lower. But in order to participate, you have to be a mid-level streamer or higher. Currently, Almond is the best in my jurisdiction. Viewers’ expectations are also quite high.”
Director Oh’s words weren’t wrong.
‘There must be some anticipation.’
He’s probably the strongest physically among Bronze and below. Of course, expectations will be high.
But for expectations to be used positively, they must ultimately be met, right?
If you reward yourself with failure, the disappointment will be as great as your expectations.
“… … Let’s discuss it.”
“thank you.”
I just said I would think about it, and Director Oh bowed his head and expressed his gratitude.
It seems that saving one person is more urgent than expected.
‘Why are you trying to choose under Director Oh’s jurisdiction?’
There are plenty of reel streamers.
Among the dogs, there are many broadcasters who are below Bronze.
But why does Director Oh want to choose among the people he manages?
What is the relationship between the bubble gum company and Director Oh?
It wasn’t a question worth asking casually yet. Keeping the line is very important in business.
“Is this all you want to ask?”
“no. “There is one more.”
“… … More?”
“This is not a request, it’s a suggestion. What it means is… … .”
Director Oh continues the story.
It was quite a serious and long story.
It was not a competition, but to the point where I thought this was actually what Director Oh wanted to say.
I wanted to go to Sang-Hyeon myself, but he decided to send Ji-Ah instead.
There was also the problem of distance… … .
Because this moment seemed so important to his future life.
“… … I’m his manager?”
Joo-hyuk’s eyes shook greatly after hearing the whole story.
“When we talked before, I think you said you were thinking of taking on more roles besides Sang-hyeon, so I’m suggesting this first.”
It was certainly an opportunity. But like most opportunities, it was also a huge risk.
however… … .
‘It’s bound to happen someday.’
This is something that will definitely happen for Joo-hyuk’s goals.
Joohyuk is not satisfied with just the share he receives from Sanghyun’s profits. He jumped into this game with the intention of receiving more streamers in the first place.
He is ambitious.
Just as Sanghyun has a dream.
“I will think about it deeply.”
“Yes. Thank you, Mr. Joohyuk.”
That’s the end of the story.
After briefly saying hello to Director Oh, Joo Hyuk made a quick call.

-Joo Hyuk. Hi.
“Uh. Ji-ah. Where’s Sang-hyun?”
-Almond is an important person who is driving right now. He is fine. He just seems to be a little weak.
“ah… … thank god. “I’ll be there soon too.”
-okay.
It seemed to be in better condition than I had feared.
Joohyuk quickly caught a taxi and headed to Heogye.
To the place that has now become his home.
* * *
The region consists of one large urban area, known as the city center, and several underdeveloped areas.
These underdeveloped areas are mostly single-family homes built on steep slopes.
Judging by its appearance alone, it could have been a wealthy village.
However, perhaps because life goes from extreme to extreme with only a slight difference, this area has become commonly referred to as a poor village.
Telling children not to play with children who live here has become a habit among mothers in apartments in urban areas, and Sang-hyeon, who used to be that ‘child who should not play’, now understands them.
Although it’s bittersweet, I understand it well… … .
The scenery outside the window stopped with the sound of the engine.
“They’re all here.”
Only after hearing Yeonju’s voice did Sang-Hyeon come out of his reverie.
As I drove around the neighborhood for the first time in a while, I was reminded of old times.
“Are you still dizzy?”
Yeonjoo’s eyes in the rearview mirror are smiling. She was the type of person who, when she smiled, her whole face smiled.
I don’t know what it’s like between real friends, but she seems to be a woman who is used to being kind in public. She looks like she’s been in society for a long time.
“It’s a little bit like that, but it’s okay. I think I’ve rested long enough.”
“Just in case. Zia, would you like to bring it to me?”
“huh.”
Yeonju went to park her car behind Ji-ah’s house, and since the car couldn’t go up to Sang-hyun’s house, the other two got out and walked.
There was no particular situation where Jia had to support Sanghyun.
Although a little slow, Sang-Hyeon managed to climb the stairs somehow.
After finally arriving home.
Sang-Hyeon said, grabbing Ji-Ah’s shoulder.
“Jia. “Be sure to say thank you to your friend.”
“all right.”
“Thank you too. great job.”
“… … yes.”
After saying those words, Sang-Hyeon went into the house. Then he collapsed into a deep sleep.
How much time has passed like that?
When I opened my eyes to the delicious smell, it was already night.
‘ah…….’
I quickly went to Trivi thinking I should have posted a broadcast notice. The notice had already been posted.
It was announced that he would be taking a break due to poor condition after hospital treatment. It seemed like Joo Hyuk wrote it.
Sang-Hyeon roughly pushed the blanket aside and went out to the living room. It seemed like Joo-Hyeok was making dinner.
“oh. Do you get up when it’s time to eat? I was sorry yesterday. “It was unclear where to go.”
Sanghyun nodded and sat down at the table.
“It’s okay. You called me, Jia. But what did you talk about with Director Oh?”
“ah. I was preparing for a competition and got a flat tire. There are competitions that streamers do for fun. “I wonder if it’s a Nant.”
“Oh, yeah.”
Sang-Hyeon also knows what it is. Bubblegum also participates in the competition every time.
“I want you to come out.”
“… … ?”
But now he has to participate in the competition.
“Hold the competition in Punk?”
“No, the competition itself is held at Trivi… … .”
“But why did Director Oh say that?”
“I don’t know about that. I wonder if it has something to do with the bubble gum company. It seems like it’s quite urgent.”
“hmm.”
Whatever the circumstances, it wasn’t a bad offer.
If you go to a competition like that, you’ll definitely get a whole different amount of attention.
“But what kind of competition? Battle Large?”
“No, Lil. Siege.”
“… … ?”
Sang-Hyeon couldn’t hide his embarrassment.
“Have I played one game already?”
Because it only took one game to play properly.
“That’s the problem. Think about what you’re going to do. In the end, it’s your decision. Do you know that if you go and develop it, your image will be ruined?”
Joo-hyuk brought out the finished dish while giggling like it was someone else’s business. I wondered what was the owner of this delicious smell and peeked into the pot. It was soft tofu stew.
gulp.
Now that I think about it, I’m hungry.
“Why don’t you eat some almond flakes?”
Joo-hyuk sensed something and spoke firmly, but Sang-hyun replied, “Yeah~” and quickly brought back a bowl full of rice.
Anyway, the stew wasn’t even for one person as it looked.
Thanks to this, I ate the soup without any guilt.
Slurp.
The extremely hot red oil sweeps over the roof of your mouth, shooting a tingling spiciness. Then, the spiciness is wrapped in the thick broth, oil, and egg yolk.
When you add the pure white simplicity and soft texture of soft tofu, the rice spreads naturally.
“hey. But when will the results come out?”
After eating the stew for a while, Joohyuk asked casually.
“hmm. Long time again next week. Now that I think about it, something strange happened at the hospital today.”
“Strange thing?”
Sang-hyeon told Joo-hyuk about the woman he met today.
“Um… … It’s not that it’s strange, but rather something to be thankful for.”
“Yes, but… … .”
It was strange, you know.
Sanghyun scratched his head and put the spoon in his mouth.
The red soup and white soft tofu warmed my mouth.
‘It’s delicious.’
This is a dish that naturally makes you think like this.
“By the way, you’re a pretty good cook now.”
“I guess it’s the power of YouTube. These days, I watch other cooking channels too.”
“Huh… … “Gruck.”
Sang-Hyeon answered, exhaling hot steam.
gulp.
After swallowing everything in his mouth, Sanghyeon spoke simply as if it was a passing incident.
“Competition. “I will do it.”
“… … ?”
Keck!
Joo Hyuk choked for a moment.
“Joe, why don’t you think about it some more?”
“What is there to worry about?”
“It’s not a joke, if you apply it there, it could really damage your image.”
Sanghyun chuckled at those words.
“That can’t be possible.”
Joo Hyuk made a dumbfounded expression, but quickly nodded.
‘He’s basically like this.’
This guy isn’t afraid.
While other people are thinking about risks and weighing things up, this guy sees only opportunity and rushes in.
And it does it.
‘I am… … .’
On the other hand, Joo-hyuk looks back on himself.
Isn’t it that we are calculating and predicting the future’s gloom under the pretense of being smart, and seeing risks as greater than opportunities?
Even if I fail, it is not a failure in my life.
Aren’t you too scared?
“Anyway, let’s do it. “I want to try it.”
On the other hand, this guy is the type that, rather than being scared of such things, his blood boils even more.
These guys will be successful.
“okay. “Let’s do something.”
After eating.
He gave Sanghyeon basic information about the competition. And I also told Director Oh the news.
-Really? This quickly? Wow. As expected, you’re cool. Thank you.
Director Oh was happy and thanked me several times.
Joo-hyuk and Sang-hyeon studied reel strategy and competition characteristics for the competition.
And the next day came.
* * *
A stuffy morning.
Sang-hyeon, squinting against the sunlight streaming through the curtains, sees a cell phone ringing loudly.
I opened it, wondering if it was a phone.
It’s all messages.
Why are so many messages coming?
The answer was in the message at the top.
[‘Bubble Gum’ invited you to the group chat room.]
“… …Group chat room?”
I was invited to a group chat room, and everything the members said among themselves set off an alarm.
It was a team chat room for a competition that Sanghyun would participate in in the future.
In addition to Bubble Gum, three other teams were also in the chat room.
[Bubble Gum: Wow! Almond is participating! everyone!]
[Miho: Waaaa]
[Taco: Good.]
[Strawberry Shooter: Ha-wa-wa-wa!]
etc.
After that, all kinds of small talk took place.
Streamers seem to wake up pretty early.
Almond sent his greetings, albeit late.
[Almond: Hello. Please take care of me! (_ _)]
[Miho: Wow Almond! Hello>~
First of all, Miho answered.
According to Joo Hyuk, Miho was Platinum Rank.
[Taco: Yep! Almond! i look forward to! ^^7]
Next is Takoyaki.
He said that although he is currently in the diamond tier, he was a former professional. He will be the coach and player of this team.
The last one was the ace of this team. The player in the best form right now.
[Strawberry Shooter: Hi. Please take care of me ^~^]
This is a strawberry shooter of the master tier.
Joo-hyuk had repeatedly explained to me that he was a muscular, well-built man, 185 cm tall and weighing over 100 kg.
And the additional story is, his position.
[Strawberry Shooter: But I’m also a ranged attacker. How cool. Isn’t Almond a Reina one-tool?]
His position was ADC.
Considering that Reina is usually recruited as a ranged dealer, it could be said that their positions overlap.
However, a master usually plays a variety of positions.
[Strawberry Shooter: Let’s tune it together! I’m also an ADC and an ADC >_<] He is a so-called terrible long-range master. This is a case where the rank was raised through only one position. There will probably be competition for position, but the opponent happens to be a Master, the highest tier in the team. fantasy,
