I Regressed But The World DidnT Fall Apart - Chapter 69

I Regressed But The World Didn’T Fall Apart 69

The World Didn’t Collapse After Returning -69-

069.

A few days ago.

So, on the evening when Shinjiro muttered to himself, “Jaenonchon.. Jokganne..”

[Welcome, ‘Lynn’.]

In the world of Tworke where hundreds, even thousands of streamers appeared daily, another streamer joined the ranks.

“Do you see Quick Match and Rank Match in front of you? Just choose Rank Match.”

He wasn’t alone.

Shinjiro was beside Lynn, fidgeting in the air.

“Well, next··· I guess you won’t be interacting with viewers and all that.”

Nod-

Lynn nodded her head.

Was she going to interact or not? Her response was confusing.

But as always, Shinjiro interpreted his sister’s actions as he pleased.

‘She won’t be doing that.’

So, chat and donation notifications were turned OFF.

Shinjiro took control and adjusted the broadcast settings.

All that mattered was the broadcast time.

‘Oh, there are also ranks.’

“Sis, you need to at least reach Blue Tier. Do you remember how the ranks are divided?”

Once again, Lynn nodded.

Well, in reality, things like ranks should be familiar to her.

As a woman, she had swiftly obtained a teacher’s qualification regardless of age or gender.

─Swish!

At that moment, Lynn initiated a downward strike towards the air.

Watching this, Shinjiro unconsciously clicked his tongue.

No matter how many times he saw it, it was truly a beautiful sword strike.

It even seemed sharper than before.

‘If we clash again now···’

Could he win?

Impossible.

That thought immediately crossed his mind.

The difference between his sister and himself was crystal clear.

He should have somehow won in the first round.. He had to.

If he had done a little better, made fewer mistakes, been more cautious, he might have won.

Regret that comes late.

I should have pressed harder when Nuna was flustered at the beginning of Daejeon.

[-Again, do it again! Stick to it!]

Driven by the thought of losing regrettably, I challenged for another round.

And another defeat.

In the second round, the gap in HP widened.

But isn’t there a saying, “Third time’s the charm”?

Shinjiro, who couldn’t admit it until then, challenged for one more round.

[Lynn]

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ □ □ □ □

[Shinjiro]

□ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □ □

The result was the match just now.

I could land a few hits, but that was it.

Once Lynn adapted, Shinjiro’s swordsmanship became completely readable.

Being able to shave off four blocks of Nuna’s HP was all thanks to game elements.

If they had purely fought with swords, not a single hit would have landed.

“Ah, man. It seems my compatibility with Nuna isn’t great after all.”

In truth, it was inevitable.

After all, who taught Shinjiro how to wield a sword in the first place?

Even if there were separate instructors from the family, ultimately, Shinjiro learned the most from Nuna.

As a result, he was particularly vulnerable to Nuna.

If Lynn kept using Iron Fist, Shinjiro would never be able to hold the title of Japan’s strongest… no, the world’s strongest forever.

“Well… it’s fortunate that my goal is just to meet that guy.”

Lee Dohyuk.

The reason Nuna and Lynn suddenly decided to play a game they had never tried before.

But it didn’t end there.

Someone who previously had no interest in such matters was now asking how they could face that guy.

Of course, the interest stemmed from the Chiba family’s secret technique felt through his sword.

In fact, that’s why they are now turning on the broadcast under Lynn’s name.

In the quest for the fastest route, the conclusion was to participate in a streamer competition.

Of course, Lynn’s participation in the competition meant that Shinjiro’s chances of winning were infinitely low…

[-You won’t be able to beat me anyway.]

[-What?]

[-With your current skills, Shinjiro… it’s still impossible. You need to strive harder.]

Nuna’s words to herself after watching Lee Dohyuk’s play.

In other words, even without Nuna, the message was that Shinjiro wouldn’t be able to defeat Lee Dohyuk and win the competition.

“..Hmph.”

As the image of Nuna confidently making that statement came to mind, Shinjiro’s face turned grim.

─Slash!

Leaving him behind, Lynn continued wielding her sword.

Reluctantly admitting to herself… If Nuna says so, it must be true.

Shinji had never seen Lynn tell a lie in all the time he had known her.

Especially lying about swordsmanship? That’s unimaginable.

‘What is his true identity?’

He wondered if they were close, but that wasn’t the case.

In that case.

What was the origin of the swordsmanship he displayed…

Swish-

“Ah, I don’t know.”

Shinji, done with the setup manipulation, passed back the broadcasting rights to Lynn.

Then he started the stream.

[Starting the stream.]

“That’s enough now.”

Figuring out about him is now Nuna’s job.

The more he thought about it, the more complicated it became.

Shinji decided to delegate all the troublesome tasks to Lynn.

Now, what he should do is…

“Sir. It’s me.”

Shinji, leaving Lynn’s broadcasting room, contacted someone.

—

Slice!

A clean sword strike.

Dodging the opponent’s single blow with just a paper-thin difference and landing one’s own attacks – a martial arts skill.

From Noble mtl dot com

Impressed by the sight, a viewer opened their wallet.

[‘Meguming’ has donated 1,000 yen.]

-They’re not a beginner www

But no notifications rang.

The donation indication and message only appeared in the chat box, not on the broadcast screen.

-hahahaha

-Ignore www

-A thousand yen won’t get a reaction www

-At least shoot for ten thousand

-Even with ten thousand, there’s no reaction (laughs)

The existing viewers chuckled at these comments.

In truth, this was a familiar sight to them.

It had repeated several times since a while ago.

[······ / Lynn / 16 viewers]

Suddenly appearing, a new female (important) streamer.

There are viewers who only look for such broadcasts in the world.

In Korean terms, they are known as “Hakko Hunters.”

With fewer people, real-time communication between broadcasters and viewers is easier, psychological distance is closer, and because each viewer can hold a somewhat significant position due to the preciousness of each individual to the broadcaster, these are the ones who only follow Hakko broadcasts.

At times, they might pressure to align the streamer with their taste or induce an atmosphere to that effect… they might even create tension.

– Why isn’t this person saying anything?

– lol, we have no idea

– Could be part of the concept

The viewers who found this broadcast right now were also among them.

Hakko Hunters who only watch Hakko broadcasts.

However, they couldn’t muster the courage to create tension here as they do elsewhere.

It’s only natural.

– It seems like our chat isn’t showing? lol

– No lol, why did you even turn on the broadcast then?

– lol, I’m also puzzled

No, you need to say something to create tension.

No matter how much you chat, no matter how many donations you send, there is no response from the rookie streamer, ‘Lynn’.

Lynn shows no intention of utilizing the unique advantages of Hakko broadcasts.

Yet, there was a reason why the Hakko Hunters who found this place were not leaving this broadcast.

Bam!

Swish─!

First, well done.

– Impressive..

– Wow

– Their skills are quite impressive lol

Of course, the rank is still low.

At best, she’s just moved past the beginner stage.

[Lynn]

[7 wins 0 losses]

But her win rate is truly clean.

Looking at the opponents she faces, it seems like she’s gradually entering the realm of high-level players who break combos smoothly and familiarly.

─Swoosh!

[8 wins 0 losses]

Facing even those high-level players without allowing a single hit, winning streak after winning streak.

She’s currently playing the popular game in Japan, Iron Fist.

As such, most of the Twitch viewers can gauge the streamer’s level just by watching her movements.

– Is she playing with a smurf account?

– Seems like it lol

– The guy from earlier lol, when he removed the numbers from his nickname, his main character was a chair

– This streamer’s main character seems quite high-level, right?

Adjusting the distance.

The movement of her feet.

The trajectory drawn by her sword.

Lynn lacks nothing.

Even amidst her fierce attacks, she effortlessly dodges her opponent’s strikes with a mere tilt of her head.

All of these make her seem superior to most celestial streamers.

Of course, the game is always a matter of relativity.

Although she may face lower-level alts, she still needs verification from higher ranks… but that’s not important to the viewers.

As long as she’s not frustrating to watch, it’s all good.

Because Lynn is a female streamer.

[Perfect!]

[YOU WIN]

“Whew-“

Lynn takes a small breath after finishing the match.

-Wow www

-Mecha Kirayne~

Viewers typed in admiration as they watched.

Lynn isn’t just any female streamer.

She’s an exceptionally beautiful female streamer.

Regardless of whether it’s Korea, Japan, or any country worldwide, some things remain unchanged.

It’s not some cute game, but a fighting game competition.

Female gamers who play fighting games are rare.

Female streamers who broadcast such games are rarer.

And even more so, female streamers who excel at broadcasting fighting games are even rarer.

Moreover, being exceptionally beautiful on top of that?

[Current viewers: 35]

There’s an entrance, but no exit.

As the stream was only attracting a viewer every few minutes at the bottom, once someone came in, they didn’t want to leave.

No one plans to leave.

Without a word, without any reaction to chat or donations, Lynn only plays Iron Fist.

Swish-!

Thud!

Even after playing a few rounds of ranked matches, she suddenly switches to training mode, summoning a scarecrow to wield her sword alone.

[Current viewers: 60]

Yet, Lynn’s viewership continues to grow.

– Her neck is so www

– (Deleted chat)

– If you can’t see the chat, is this place legal…

– (Deleted chat)

Of course, there were viewers who occasionally typed strange messages and ended up getting permanently banned.

– Farewell 笑

– Manager, where are you? hahahahaha.

– Hey! Manager, answer me! What on earth is the identity of this streamer?

– It’s quite amusing that even the manager here isn’t saying a word. hahahaha, hahahaha.

Although the fact that the manager doesn’t chat at all was a mystery in this room…

Anyway, that’s how Lynn’s broadcast started.

[Current viewers: 97]

Day 1, final viewers 97.

[Current viewers: 148]

Day 2, final viewers 148.

And the much-awaited Day 3.

[Current viewers: 224]

Around the time the broadcast first exceeded 200 viewers.

“Who?”

Tworke Japan.

A member of the team preparing for the upcoming Tworke Rivals: Iron Fist Invitational asked his colleague.

“What’s the streamer’s name?”

“Lynn.”

Giggle-

The staff member was taken aback by the unfamiliar name.

“Just a moment.. L, y, n, n.”

Tworke Rivals is an event-style competition.

But just because it’s an event-style competition, does that mean any streamer can participate?

Even though there were quite a few slots available for the qualifiers, participant selection was crucial.

Especially in choosing a mix of skill and popularity.

It was these individuals who were in charge of that for Tworke Japan.

“Well, the viewership isn’t non-existent… but the experience is too low, isn’t it?”

The staff member tuned into Lynn’s broadcast.

200 viewers are too few to be considered popular.

But it’s also too low in skill level to be considered for skill picks.

“She’s not even in the Blue Rank yet.”

“She’s supposed to reach it soon, right?”

“No, really. If we go by that, I might as well reach the rank of a god soon…”

Tap, tap.

At that moment, a colleague tapped something on a document shown to the staff member.

It was a document containing streamer information.

When asked what it was pointing to…

[Real Name: Chiba Rin

[Referrer: Chiba Shinjiro]

“Chiba? Shinjiro Chiba… That Chiba?”

“Yeah. That Chiba.”

In the Edo period, there was Chiba Shusaku.

The Hokujin Ildo-ryu he founded became the origin of modern kendo.

One of his disciples was the famous Sakamoto Ryo.

Therefore, the Chiba family, carrying on his legacy, also became a prestigious kendo family since the Edo period.

They maintained their influence through generations, connecting with local power, wealthy families, and aristocrats.

And what is kendo in Japan?

True to being the country of kendo, everyone tries kendo at least once from a young age, much like taekwondo in Korea.

However, as with any field, there were trends in kendo.

When the Wind of the Blade was popular, there was a kendo craze in Japan.

Likewise, with the success of Demon Slayer, there was another surge in kendo interest.

And now, with Full Dive booming.

Kendo was facing an unprecedented golden age!

So, who is Shinjiro?

The youngest son of a prestigious kendo family.

And on top of that?

[An unimaginable identity!]

The youngest son of a chaebol family!

**

And time passed to the day of the Twok Rivals.

“They’re wielding a sword too?”

– Yes

– I saw the preliminaries, they were quite good, huh?

The Sword Maiden prepared for the match, interacting with the viewers.

Her opponent, mainly using Masamune.

And on top of that, being a woman.

Lynn, that’s her name.

“It’s a name I’ve never heard of… but are you famous in Japan, something I don’t know?”

– Nope, I looked it up, just a bit known for the concept

– They posted a summary on Twok, check it out

– hahahaha, their show concept is quite amusing

– What is it?

– Just not saying anything is part of their show concept

The Sword Maiden quickly skimmed through the chat.

A viewer explained that they researched the Japanese community after seeing her in the preliminaries.

‘Not saying anything is part of the concept, and they’re a bit friendlier than the average Blue Rank?’

That was all the explanation provided.

“Hmm.”

Those words came out naturally.

It was definitely not something she had borrowed from anyone.

“The beauty female investigator streamer. Ah, am I also at this level in the end?”

– Hm?

– B-Beauty?

– hahahahaha

– Okay

In addition to being a female investigator… quite a skilled streamer?

“Hoho, I never expected to have fans even in Japan across the sea.”

This is interesting.

Perhaps one of her fans following her concept?

And then it happened.

[Dark Girl]

[56 Wins 4 Losses]

[Lynn]

[16 Wins 0 Losses]

The opponent who entered the waiting room a step later than Dark Girl.

– Sigh..

– Looking at the win rate, for some reason, it reminds me of the past..

– Am I the only one feeling nostalgic?

– hahahahaha ever since earlier, flagging…

Suddenly, the eyes of Dark Girl and Lynn met.

Lynn nodded her head slightly towards her.

Dark Girl also greeted her back.

At that moment, a viewer’s donation alert rang out.

Ding-

[“GirlSpider” has donated 1,000 won.]

– Well.. Miss, for now, beauty is a disadvantage, right?

– Oh…

– Sweating nervously!

– hahahaha

– Still, you did well.. Let’s have a drink~

– Ah hahahahaha I came to do my makeup but as long as you’re good at games

– Anyone know what to type in the chat for Lynn’s eyes to appear
