065. One Team

Aside from the RIX match, which is practically the most important game before the relegation match, there was one match left today. It was against a small team in the middle of the third division, UQQ.

‘Well… To be honest, this is just a loosening up.’

Since the team wasn’t particularly unique in terms of tactics, I didn’t really do any analysis of the opposing team’s tactics.

However, in this match, we planned a strategy centered on close range dealers with the intention of observing Yoon Han-gyeol’s growth.

Rather than the traditional bomber tactics, Kim Do-jun, Yoon Han-gyeol, and Lee Gil-han were used as the three top attackers, with the rest of the team providing support from behind.

‘This time, I actually plan to just watch rather than provide cover.’

We must always be on standby to prevent any unexpected accidents.

Well, Yoon Han-gyeol has become too strong to be a 3rd division leaguer.

And to make sure that the attention isn’t focused solely on Yoon Han-gyeol, they also added Kim Do-jun, who is a natural at making jokes, so there probably won’t be any major problems with the vanguard.

[PER vs. UQQ match. Starting now!!]

The transmission began to a loud cheer and the caster’s voice.

And, in accordance with Lee Yeon-ju’s location briefing, the long-range support team and the three top players of Kim Do-jun, Yoon Han-gyeol, and Lee Gil-han gathered together and headed towards the opponent’s formation.

The long-range support team, including me, positioned themselves on high points overlooking the map, keeping an eye on the melee damage dealers, so they could reach them with air anchors and airbeats at any time.

Kim Do-jun rushes at his opponent as soon as he meets him.

‘Probably, Kim Do-jun will think that people will finally see me doing my best… … something like that.’

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to stand around with such a flashy weapon. Anyway, he likes to be the center of attention.

At the same time as that thought, Kim Do-jun’s weapon, which was fighting the enemy melee dealer, began to glow like crazy.

Um… … But that guy. He even wore sunglasses this time because his weapon was flashing, so did he take Yoon Han-gyeol and Lee Gil-han with him too… …

As expected, as soon as the fight broke out, a situation that made me sigh deeply occurred.

Kim Do-jun charged forward alone, and his sword flashed so much at every moment of the battle that Lee Gil-han and Yoon Han-gyeol were unable to help Kim Do-jun fight, let alone join him.

A situation where it’s so flashy that people turn their backs on it.

‘ha…….’

Yes, the three close-range tops’ breathing was destroyed like dogs.

I wasn’t the only one who had that thought, as the people next to me burst into laughter as well.

Lee Yeon-ju was laughing out loud, perhaps because she found the sight of Lee Gil-han and Yoon Han-gyeol trying to ignore Kim Do-jun as if they didn’t know him funny.

“Hey, Changhyun. Is it okay for them to leave it like that?”

Han Ji-soo was laughing at what they were doing as if it was inconsistent.

I regretted not practicing as a team and focusing only on individual practice. I should have tried to match up even a little bit…

‘Yeah… … That guy’s aggro doesn’t discriminate between enemies and allies… … .’

It was something I hadn’t thought about because I was so focused on developing Yoon Han-gyeol’s skills.

Who would have thought that a feature that was simply added as an option in the Moras Workshop would cause such a big stir… … .

Of course, even in that situation, we were fighting well in a situation where there were almost 3 vs. 5.

Perhaps, the two remaining opposing teams have fallen back as special forces… … but it probably won’t have a big impact on the overall situation.

In fact, there was little chance of us losing this battle.

Maybe it would be different if it was the next round against RIX.

With consistent individual training, our team’s weight class itself is now mid-level, excluding the ace line of Kim Do-jun, Yoon Han-gyeol, Han Ji-su, and Na.

Of course, if the four of us are together, we can definitely be said to be a force to be reckoned with in the third division.

So the atmosphere of this match itself is quite light.

That was the reason why I was watching, even though I could have used the sniping point to immediately reduce the number of enemies considerably.

In fact, the two main dealers currently in the vanguard, Yoon Han-gyeol and Kim Do-jun, seemed to be enjoying the game like fish in water.

Kim Do-jun’s swordsmanship, which included emitting light from his weapon at a crucial moment whenever his opponent tried to rush in, and delivering a critical hit with his swift sword, looked quite powerful.

… … But as expected, I guess it should be said that it was Kim Do-jun. That greatness actually didn’t last very long.

The opposing team member who was blinded by Kim Do-jun’s shining sword shouted.

“Ugh… … Ugh! You cowardly little brat! But do you think we wouldn’t have prepared?”

But even as he said those words, he had a bitter smile on his face, and the reason for this became clear the very next moment.

‘Did everyone bring sunglasses?’

I couldn’t help but agree.

Indeed. A trick is a trick because it can be countered with a trick. If it can’t be countered with a trick, then it would have become a standard.

Kim Do-jun, who had not thought that someone else would bring sunglasses, panicked and pressed his opponent while emitting a strong light from his weapon, but while there was only one Kim Do-jun, there were many opponents.

For Kim Do-jun, who didn’t have a cheat method called Nun-bong, there was no way.

And I guess I should call this a blessing… … but tactically it was a wise choice.

“Huh… … This is a tactical retreat!”

… … Kim Do-jun, who was cornered, started to run away for a while.

How can someone run away with their mana shield spread out behind their back like that? Regardless of whether they win or lose, I thought it was a bit odd.

Well, ugly or not, the retreat was successful. Suddenly, only Yoon Han-gyeol and Lee Gil-han were left in the melee battlefield.

“I… … I’m a useless brat… … !”

Lee Gil-han was at a loss, his old fiery temper on the verge of coming out again, and Yoon Han-gyeol seemed equally at a loss, although he didn’t say anything.

Perhaps because his mentality was shaken, it seemed like the control of the sword was slightly off.

Anyway, Kim Do-jun seemed to be optimized not only for aggro but also for mentally shaking both enemies and allies.

If that’s talent, then it’s talent.

But that was that, and the fact that the tip of the sword of the Igi Sword was shaking depending on the mentality meant that Yoon Han-gyeol still had some areas he needed to improve on.

‘It might be a good idea to include Kim Do-jun in Han-gyeol’s training menu… … .’

As a player, you will always have to manage your mental health.

***

In the end, the game itself was won easily despite this situation.

Although Kim Do-jun retreated alone for tactical reasons, perhaps because the flashy obstacles were gone, Yoon Han-gyeol and Lee Gil-han showed good teamwork and repelled their opponents.

In addition, the overwhelming attack power from the unexpectedness of the Leegi Sword was not easily blocked by other opponent melee dealers of the 3rd League.

To be honest, that can’t even be called swordsmanship. Swordsmanship can be used to destroy things by looking at “shape” or “style,” but that was something that had to be blocked purely with reflexes.

If you are not used to it, even if you are a first division player or an overseas player, the attack power is enough to make you susceptible to unexpected blows.

‘Is the odds pretty stable now?’

In fact, I would say that the people I was most worried about were Gilhan Lee and Yeonju Lee.

To be honest, even if we couldn’t go all the way together, I was definitely the one who had to play the role of a team member for the time being.

In the case of Han Ji-soo, Yoon Han-gyeol, and Kim Do-jun, they were team members that I personally recruited, but honestly, in those two cases, their potential and talent itself were not that great.

But contrary to such worries, Lee Gil-han studied hard from me and is now doing a great job of supporting melee dealers.

While each of Yoon Han-gyeol’s three swords were fighting different melee dealers, he used his dash skill to create a large gap in the melee dealers, which led directly to the match.

‘I guess that means he now knows clearly what he needs to do to lead the team to victory.’

It was a positive direction. If I sold him to another team, I would be able to get a pretty good transfer fee. I couldn’t help but laugh.

Even though there is still the RIX match left, it is certain that we will advance to the second division promotion match anyway, so I felt that if we could just win that, the team would probably be able to cruise for a while.

***

The atmosphere in RIX’s conference room was quite subdued.

That’s because RIX’s coach Kim Jong-woon originally thought that PER was a team that could win with basics if they just watched out for bomber tactics, but that idea has recently been shattered.

Lee Chang-hyun surprisingly showed overwhelming skills even in close-range multi-person combat.

And Yoon Han-gyeol, who is showing off his swordsmanship much sharper than before, although it is not clear what has changed.

Kim Do-jun, who may not be outstanding, but always comes up with something and shows a brilliant idea…

This was because the team seemed to be on a roll and could use a wider variety of tactics than before.

No matter how strong you are, if you know how to do just one thing, you can always find a way to break it.

But if it goes beyond one to two or three, it becomes extremely difficult to destroy.

If the first plan fails, we’ll implement the second plan, and the third plan.

Having more winning formulas meant that it was no longer a matter of luck that they were in the top ranks, but that they had truly become a strong team.

From RIX’s perspective, it was inevitable that their head would spin.

If PER finishes first in the third division, there is only one promotion spot left.

However, unlike PER, which had been steadily defeating even LTD, this one had a high possibility of rematching with LTD with a tie in the multiplier if it lost to PER.

‘We were able to beat LTD because it was a tactic that was first introduced last time… … .’

There was no guarantee that they would be able to beat LTD next time, as they had already shown off their current tactics quite a bit.

In other words, it was going to be a tough fight no matter what.

I had to find a way. A way to beat PER somehow.

But no one in the team meeting room said anything.

Darkness. Tension. In such a negative atmosphere, it was Yoo Hye-joo who spoke up.

“Why is everyone so nervous?”

Yoo Hye-ju said indignantly. That guy. He had been angry at PER before as if he was possessed by something… … It seemed like he didn’t like this gloomy atmosphere surrounding PER.

“This kid Lee Chang-hyun is nothing special. Even if you shoot him with a machine gun multiple times, as long as you don’t hit his vital points, he’ll recover in an instant as long as he’s on top of my [Sanctuary] skill. And that bastard Yoon Han-gyeol.

That bastard has improved his swordsmanship a bit now, but if we continue to do as we have been doing, we can push him back sufficiently.”

Actually, that is somewhat true. That is because Yoo Hye-joo, who was recruited this time, was definitely worth the money.

The [Sanctuary] skill, which provides transcendent resilience, was a fraudulent skill.

Enough to require no study or understanding.

Yeah, you can’t have a stiff face like that when you’re a director.

If the opponent loses to style, mobility, and superior attack power, we can counter them with weight.

‘There’s no rule that says you have to fight at your opponent’s strengths.’

“… … Yes. Hyeju is right. But of course, we can’t underestimate the strength of our opponent’s attack power.”

With those words, he went back into a tactical meeting with the coaches and players.

Unlike before, we were stuck together as one body and were able to conduct an accurate analysis.

And then… …I finally found something.

“If it’s this… … !”

Yoo Hye-ju laughed brightly and mischievously.

He said he had been treated badly in the past, but it seemed like he finally thought he could repay them this time.
