I Regressed But The World DidnT Fall Apart - Chapter 75
I Regressed But The World Didn’T Fall Apart 75
Returning and the World Not Going to Ruin -75-
075.
A cold spell had struck.
This is the tale of the Asian server.
Harsh winter winds blow.
Everything was blue, blue, and more blue.
─Ahh!!
“Ugh!”
Tzuki let out a surprised gasp.
The character he mainly used in Iron Fist was Hattori.
Hattori was a ninja character who wielded dual weapons like Volfgang of Alpa.
True to a ninja, he boasted incredible speed.
In particular, the combo move that could be considered Hattori’s symbol, [Dash Slash – Hundred Dash – Dash Slash – Hundred Dash – Dash Slash – Hundred Dash – Dash Slash], was a terrifying technique that, if the stage were an arcade, would have him grab a chair and smash the opponent’s head in a flash.
A cunning move that, if skilled enough, allowed one to strike the opponent without getting hit.
Of course, depending on the timing of the Dash and Hundred Dash, the direction of movement, and the width of the steps, the performance of the combo move varied, so it was by no means an invincible technique.
But still, there was likely no other technique that could easily steal the opponent’s timing like this…
Blame!
Feinting a retreat, then trying a Dash.
Thud!
And the unmistakable thud sound.
Blame, thud!
Ahh! Thud!
With each strike of the Dash from Tzuki’s Hattori, wielding a ninja sword in both hands, shocks hit his head.
“N-No way!”
He was like a ghost being exorcised.
Despite surely varying the steps with each move and adding variations to the timing, Idohyeok could inexplicably read it all.
Thanks to that, he ended up in a ridiculous situation where he was bringing his head to the bat swung by a seemingly supernatural opponent.
How many more times did the thud sound echo?
[YOU LOSE]
Ultimately, the defeat screen appeared.
This makes it… a 5-game losing streak.
“…”
RanK #28(19↓)
Prime GOD
[Tzuki]
Tzukika gazed at his rank, which had suddenly dropped by 19 steps.
The blue-tinted rank drop indicator caught his eye and stung.
…It was winter.
-hahahahaㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Tzuki’s expression is hilariousㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-The reactions in this chat are seriously top-notch
-No, it’s better than 4th place, it’s 1st place
-Nice
Swoosh-
Idohyeok scanned the chat window.
Perhaps due to taking a break yesterday, the chat was livelier than usual.
Of course, part of today’s content was well-received by the viewers.
[Interactive Educational Broadcast / Lee Dohyuk / 31,216 viewers]
Today’s lineup.
The content of this broadcast is none other than Lee Dohyuk’s Iron Fist Education Broadcast!
Naturally, the students have come to be known as his disciples, 1st to 4th.
Of course, this is not the educational broadcast they desired.
“Hmm.”
Tsuki thought that was enough.
Who’s next.. Let’s see.
With such thoughts, Lee Dohyuk manipulated something.
What he was looking for was…
Ping-
[Long-awaited Rank Run / Beyond / 5,148 viewers]
-hahahaha, come on, No. 3
-hahahaha, look at that newbie comment
-Seems like you’ve never seen Beyond’s main or alt before? hahahaha
Lee Dohyuk tuned into Beyond’s broadcast.
Now, he didn’t even bother hiding his sniping.
Executing Tworc, he was even showing the viewers his search for Beyond’s broadcast.
Of course, this was partly due to the fact that the sniping culture within Iron Fist was not as negative.
If viewers sniped a streamer to disrupt their broadcast, that would be despicable, but within the same broadcasting community or among professionals, sniping was generally accepted.
In the world of fighting games, there existed cultures like ‘Deathmatch’, where competitors faced off until one was demoted or promoted, or ‘5-match series’, where it was all about skill determining who was right and who was wrong.
Therefore, even if there was a difference of several levels between ranks, users of Iron Fist typically enjoyed this culture rather than continuously sniping and harassing unless it was in good fun.
It could be seen as a kind of ‘Sniping bothering you? Win then, lol’ feeling.
-Huh? Is it my turn now? What’s… Oh, wait. Could it be… No way…?
A bewildered voice of Beyond coming through Tworc.
Just in time, he was spinning the queue.
At that moment, Lee Dohyuk, who saw it, chuckled.
[MATCH!]
Clank-
[GET READY FOR THE NEXT BATTLE]
“Oh no.”
With those words, Beyond let out a sigh.
Of course, not through the broadcast screen, but right in front of them.
“It’s been a while, Beyond.”
“Well… Congratulations on the victory, Dohyuk.”
“Congratulations on the victory? We haven’t even started yet. Well, thank you in advance.”
“Huh? What’s that… Oh!”
Initially looking puzzled, Beyond then let out a belated “Oh!” in surprise.
He realized what Yido-hyuk meant by saying that they hadn’t even started yet.
– ? Monsole
– hahahahaha, seems like EVO talk
– hehehehe, getting a preemptive congratulation for the EVO win, right?
– Did you already secure the win? hahahahaha
The delayed reactions of viewers who finally understood.
Of course, to them, it wasn’t particularly surprising.
Yido-hyuk’s EVO win.
Because it was Yido-hyuk’s viewers who saw the possibility of it more than anyone else.
Actually, it was a very strange sight.
An amateur who won a streamer competition, secured a spot in EVO, claiming the EVO win as if it were already theirs, where professionals from around the world gather.
But even such strange claims were made to seem natural to viewers by the very appearance Yido-hyuk had shown so far.
– Honestly, can’t even imagine this person losing, yeah
– Seriously, Quab? Hm, is that so?
– Hm…? (Meaning that much)
– Hm (Meaning Yido-hyuk Sensei will win)
– It’s that much, hahahahaha
– Long or short, it’s better to watch, but if I had to pick, I’d go with this one
Of course, if Iron Fist users from other countries had heard this, they would have thought it was nonsense.
Still, in Korea, opinions like ‘If it’s Yido-hyuk, isn’t it worth a shot against Quab?’ were circulating, and in neighboring Japan, news about Yido-hyuk was slowly spreading. But from the perspective of other countries, Yido-hyuk was just a streamer whose name they hadn’t even heard once.
Yet, that’s why Yido-hyuk’s viewers were eagerly awaiting the upcoming EVO tournament.
– Please, meet Quab in the finals, hahahahaha
– It would be fun to meet in the round of 32
– Oh, damn, Quab even declared retirement, but if he loses in the round of 32
– hehehehe
Now, they had become faithful fans of Yido-hyuk, but in reality, most of them were victims who had been at the receiving end of Yido-hyuk’s actions.
Fans who had belittled him as just an ordinary streamer and then got a taste of reality, and fans who had mocked him for being a failure in a certain game only to end up in the same situation.
From their perspective, they hoped that fans from other countries would feel the shock they had experienced as soon as possible.
It’s just human nature not to be able to stand alone in suffering.
Snap-
[READY]
“Phew.”
From Noble mtl dot com
Beyond, who had completed his preparations during that time.
“He’ll bring Trevor with him.”
Beyond also knew well that Yido-hyuk was obsessed with Trevor these days.
Because he was monitoring his broadcasts from time to time.
It was probably the same for Anatol and Black Maiden.
“…As there are quite a few helpful aspects to it.”
Although it wasn’t as direct as facing Yido-hyuk head-on, by observing his play from a third-party perspective, you could learn a few things.
By closely observing Yido-hyuk’s movements, angles, the force he exerted in his body, his steps, etc., one could gradually understand the essence embedded in each of those actions.
Anyway, fortunately, Howard, chosen by Beyond, has quite a good compatibility against Trevor.
As he is a fighter character similar to Hoken, who was mainly used in Alpa, and also a character he handles well, and since Trevor lacks upper-body evasion due to wielding a baseball bat as a weapon, a character with good upper-body skills like Howard against Trevor is······
Thud-
[READY]
And at that moment.
Lee Dohyuk was also ready.
“What are you···?!”
Such words naturally popped out of Beyond’s mouth as he saw it.
There was no choice.
“Ah, I’ve never played this character before.”
“So why are you choosing it now···?”
The character chosen by Beyond, Howard.
The character chosen by Lee Dohyuk, Howard.
It was a mirror match of Howard VS Howard.
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Interesting, interesting, ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-So that was the point of the educational broadcast ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Oh ㅋㅋ Now it’s my turn to receive education
Ding-
[‘RedNet’ has donated 10,000 won.]
-hahahaha, why have a problem with facing ‘Beyond’ against Beyond?
“···”
“···Hm. Shall we start the game?”
**
An alert filled with purple and gold that perfectly mixed.
With the addition of various special effects.
It was different from the usual promotion.
[Attained the title of Destroyer of Gods]
The highest rank within Iron Fist.
Existing above the Gold Tier, the Destroyer, Omega God.
Naturally, its effects were more dazzling than the usual promotion.
“Finally, you have arrived. Ah… It has been a long journey.”
Saying so, Lee Dohyuk looked at the alert.
[Mission Success!]
Not a promotion alert but a mission success alert.
The notification of attaining the title of Destroyer had been removed long ago.
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Insane amount of money
-Destroyer cut!
-Wow, that’s fierce
-How much is all of that? ㄷㄷ
Even though the Twitch Rivals ended just the day before yesterday, the reason why Lee Do-hyuk worked hard on Iron Fist yesterday and today was because of the numerous missions he had to accomplish in order to achieve the rank of Master.
Given that the viewers knew that Lee Do-hyuk would eventually achieve the rank of Master, the missions were packed with various conditions to increase the difficulty of achievement.
Lee Do-hyuk cleared all missions such as ‘Achieving Master with a 100% win rate,’ ‘Achieving Master using 10 or more characters (at least 5 games each),’ ‘Achieving it within a week.’
As a result, the amount of missions he earned through this promotion was considerable.
“Thank you. To the mission providers, Jeong Sung-soo13, Seonujoa, and······”
Lee Do-hyuk reacted while mentioning nicknames.
He even mentioned the mission applicants in units of ten thousand won one by one.
“Well then, shall we move on to Part 2 now?”
Lee Do-hyuk, who had finished Iron Fist, sneakily glanced at the chat window.
-DGDG
-Something big is coming!
-What’s the amazing content?
-Oh
-If you’re going to do it here, you know it’s going to be huge, right?
A bustling chat window.
Everyone was talking about the announcement Lee Do-hyuk had posted before today’s broadcast.
[Today’s broadcast time is 6 p.m.
Part 1 will be the educational broadcast for beginners.
Part 2 is scheduled for an amazing content. Stay tuned!]
Lee Do-hyuk had declared the content as ‘amazing.’
Everyone was curious about what it could possibly be.
“Yes. The amazing content we’ll try today is··· right now···!”
With a firm determination, Lee Do-hyuk executed something to grab the viewers’ attention.
Ding- dong- ding-
Then, background music started playing.
The music, somewhat different from the arcade music of Apifrom Apif, or the grand one that plays when you turn on Valhalla, had a slightly quaint and peaceful atmosphere.
[Monster Buddies]
And the screen displayed.
Along with the name of the game ‘Monster Buddies,’ cute, deformed creatures were seen on the start screen.
The game that was now being played was quite different from the emotions Lee Do-hyuk had shown before.
“The hit new game by Fair Games! Monster Buddies! Also known as Monbud!”
-?
-?
-??
-hahahaha lol
Chat messages filled with question marks quickly appeared.
Lee Do-hyuk, with a shameless face, said,
“Ah, it’s only been two days since the hot new open-world survival… uh… sandbox game was released. Wow! It must be so much fun, right?”
-hahahahaha
-This is insane hahahahaha
-Ugh hahahahaha
-It must be so much fun, this survival game hahahahaha
For today, he had ambitiously prepared a sensational content.
It was none other than an advertisement broadcast.
Fair Games.
To some gamers, especially those who were fans of Lee Dohyuk’s channel, this game company was undoubtedly familiar.
They had seized the market with their fully immersive Ultimate Fighter before their competitors, created a game that attracted early hardcore gamers, and then hit the jackpot with a game that attracted wealthy individuals in droves, leaving other game companies in the dust!
That game company was none other than Fair Games, the ‘jackpot-producing company’!
-Seriously hahahahaha
-Those Fair guys are hilarious, putting aside the jackpot ads for new game promotion hahahahaha
-Would you advertise the jackpot if you were in their shoes?
-But is that fun?
-Huh? I saw someone playing it yesterday, it seemed kind of cute
-Yeah, you go around fighting monsters and stuff in the game
-(Censored) It feels a bit like that
-Hey, be careful
-Yeah, true hahahahaha
As such, despite the game being newly released, there were viewers who were already familiar with it.
Because the streamer sponsored by Fair Games was not just Lee Dohyuk alone.
In fact, on the release day yesterday, there were numerous streamers hosting Monster Buddies, also known as MonBu broadcasts.
Of course, it was somewhat surprising that Lee Dohyuk was among them…
However, there wasn’t much dissatisfaction towards him suddenly hosting an advertisement broadcast.
“Well, if anyone finally has an issue with me doing an ad for the first time! Anyone?”
-Seriously hahahahaha
-Can’t you turn off the bans and ask politely?
-Wow, he’s crazy good at sniping
-As expected of Dohyuk-sensei
-Oh hahahahaha How do you resist copying money?
There couldn’t be any dissatisfaction.
Those viewers who did have issues were either already dead or on their way there.
Ding-
[‘RedNettie’ has donated 10,000 won.]
-Seriously hahahahaha What’s wrong with Lee Dohyuk being ‘Lee Dohyuk’?
Once again, today was a peaceful broadcast for Lee Dohyuk without any issues.
