The Villain is Too Good at Broadcasting

While the developers of ChickenBox and Fantasy War were actively interacting and preparing a global large-scale collaboration event, the League of Storm Destruction match, hosted by Twipod Korea, continued precariously.

As expected, our team advanced to the finals.

The final opponent team in the finals was:

“Hyung, please!”

“What?”

“Please! Stop killing me!”

“Then why did you come all the way up here? It’s so much fun!”

“Oh, damn it, really!”

“Oh, daaaamn?”

The team leader of that team was a former professional gamer-turned-streamer, Soulf, and thanks to the good chemistry among the team members, they made it to the finals.

Jin-hyuk, my brother, was in charge of the top lane in this Destruction match.

In the finals, which were played in a best-of-five format, we were already leading 2-0.

Despite the scandal that erupted as soon as the Twipod Korea League of Storm Destruction tournament began, the open studio where the finals were held was packed with fans who came to cheer.

Not only were there viewers supporting our team, but also fans of Green Wings and a few Chinese people who came to curse at me.

Did the organizers even deploy security forces on purpose?

They thought that people with ill feelings towards me might cause trouble.

Of course, it was ChickenBox that strongly suggested that opinion.

Given the situation, they said my safety might be at risk.

Well, although some Chinese people did curse at me, I didn’t see anyone holding a weapon.

And I could laugh off some cursing.

In Korea, sometimes the more you get cursed by Chinese people, the more support you get.

That was exactly my case.

Anyway, I was happily looking at my little brother in this final round that would decide the championship.

The kill score for the third round was already 12-1.

The game had tilted heavily in our favor in less than 20 minutes.

Jin-hyuk, who was facing me, had already recorded 4 deaths.

That was the result of arrogantly challenging me to a one-on-one.

I smirked as I looked at Jin-hyuk playing <Master of Weapons>.

“Hey, isn’t this your 9th solo kill today?”

Jin-hyuk had been killed by me five times in the first two rounds and had already recorded 4 deaths in the third round.

His mentality seemed to be quite shaken.

How dare you challenge your big brother?

At my words, Jin-hyuk trembled and glared at me.

“Can’t you just die once, Hyung?”

“Why?”

“I have to make a living too!”

“Are you imagining getting a solo kill on me or something?”

“…Please, Hyung.”

“So, what do you think I’ll answer?”

I grinned as I lightly stabbed the <Wanderer’s> sword into Jin-hyuk’s abdomen.

“No chance!”

[An ally has slain an enemy hero!]

A notification message popped up in front of all players.

Jin-hyuk collapsed on the ground looking wronged, but he didn’t seem too upset.

Just frustrated, maybe?

This morning, Jin-hyuk had brought me a banana milk as a bribe, asking me to go easy on him, but I wasn’t someone who’d be swayed by just a banana milk.

In reality, I was a kind brother, but in the game, I was ruthless.

After I solo-killed Jin-hyuk, I happily sent a message in the all-chat.

-Streamer Sha: ㅌㅊㅇ ㅇㅈ?-

Since the Destruction match was unofficial, the all-chat was open.

In response to my message, the leader of the enemy team, Streamer Soulf, replied.

-Soulf: ㅇㅈ ㅋㅋㅋ The difference in top lane is too big-

-Streamer Jin: ……Why are you guys doing this to me?-

-Streamer Sha: Why do you think? ㅋㅋㅋ Because you suck.-

There’s no such thing as brothers in the game, Jin-hyuk.

Get a grip!

Ten minutes passed, and the winner of the Destruction match was decided.

As soon as we won the game, we logged off and emerged from the capsules.

“The winning team of Twipod Korea’s League of Storm Destruction match is Team SB!”

The main MC, Streamer Godtae, shouted loudly as he approached us, and I glanced at him with a sly smile.

“Godtae!”

“Yes?”

“It’s the championship, after all. Please call our team’s full name! Loud and clear?”

“…Are you serious?”

“I think many people are looking forward to it.”

“Sha, that’s a bit…”

“I’m joking.”

No need to take it so seriously, it’s not fun like that.

However, after a moment of contemplation, Godtae nodded and handed me the microphone.

“The MVP of the tournament with an overwhelming vote, Streamer Sha! Can we hear a few words?”

As I took the microphone, I glanced at Curmulgee.

After all, Curmulgee was the actual team leader.

I felt a bit sorry for taking the interview on behalf of the team, but Curmulgee smiled at me.

“Thanks to Sha, we won, so of course Sha should do the interview!”

“Thank you…”

“I’m just happy with the equal distribution of the prize money. Plus, I’m not a big fan of interviews.”

Capitalism is quite convenient in moments like these.

So, I was tasked with the victory interview, and I slowly looked ahead as I grabbed the microphone.

Cheers and boos erupted simultaneously.

Two sounds that couldn’t coexist, but hearing them together was quite an interesting harmony.

I looked at the audience with a light smile.

“Thanks to the Destruction match, I got to enjoy myself a lot. Gained many viewers, and now I’m leaving with a nice prize. My belly is full. I’ll keep working hard on my streams.”

“Our villain!”

“Broooo! Please swear just once!”

“Swear! I came all the way from Australia to hear your curses live, you bastard!”

“Swear!”

“Give us a good one! Let’s have a broadcast accident!”

Probably, there would never be a match like this in the history of Twipod Korea’s public matches.

Most of the audience looked at me, holding the microphone, waiting for my next words.

But I’m a person too, and I must draw the line.

Swearing heavily in a public match would be a big deal.

So, after a moment of contemplation, I looked at my teammates and nodded.

“Since we won, let’s all chant our team name together. I’ll shout ‘Team!’ and everyone will shout our team name.”

The audience went wild for a moment.

After watching that satisfying sight, I shouted with high tension.

“Team!”

As my lead shout echoed through the hall, my teammates and the audience responded loudly.

“Shibal!”

“Waaaaah!”

Team Shibal, winners of the Twipod Korea Destruction match.

A new line was added to my streaming career, and the prize money was deposited into my account.

The total prize money of 100 million won was split into five parts, 20 million won each.

A very pleasant day was passing by.

—

2.

To commemorate our victory, we had a simple celebration with the team.

We also didn’t forget to leave feedback by streaming.

Although I wanted to celebrate the victory by drinking all night, we couldn’t have a drinking broadcast as there were minors present.

Because of this, the celebratory dinner was simply substituted with meat and drinks.

There were very pleasant stories shared during the dinner.

The most exciting news was that Dong-hyun and Hee-su, the professional gamers who had joined our team, were recognized for their skills and transferred to the professional league team <Dragons>.

It was clear that these two had stood out the most in this Destruction match.

It seemed they gained confidence from this tournament as both their solo rank positions had simultaneously entered the top 10.

Moreover, they showed great performances every time they scrimmed with other pro league teams.

They were talented friends, so we were happy to congratulate them.

“Hyung, it’s all thanks to you.”

Dong-hyun said to me, his eyes slightly red.

I was flustered by the sudden emotional atmosphere.

What had I done to deserve this?

“Your support and that of your viewers gave us back our confidence. You must come to watch our matches next season!”

“Ah… sure.”

I’ve said it many times, but the support from the Evil Gang isn’t exactly… pleasant…

However, seeing Dong-hyun’s face, I couldn’t bring myself to dampen the mood.

So, I just nodded with a soft smile.

With such pleasant stories, we were able to enjoy our dinner, and it ended on a cheerful note.

After the dinner, the adults planned to go for a second round, but since two of them didn’t enjoy drinking, it didn’t work out.

Besides, both of them lived outside the city, so they had to leave early.

So, we postponed our drinking plans for another time, and I headed home right after the dinner.

Though it was disappointing, there was nothing to be done.

Moreover, I had something else to do today.

Since Jin-hyuk’s team dinner wasn’t over yet, the house was empty.

Even though they finished as runners-up, their team atmosphere seemed pretty good.

That’s probably why they could still smile after the finals.

After taking a quick shower, I headed straight to the capsule to check if the game I downloaded in the morning was ready to play.

[Fantasy War: East (Beta), Ready to Launch.]

The beta key was provided in advance to streamers by CA.

Although we couldn’t reveal the game through our streams yet, it was a version given to streamers to play in preparation for the upcoming event <Three Kingdoms War>.

Personally, I like playing games in advance.

I prefer to prepare by previewing the game.

Anyway, I immediately logged into Fantasy War, and a splendid intro video appeared.

The video quality was on a whole different level compared to the one I saw on the tablet PC before.

Screams and the sounds of weapons clashing could be heard everywhere as a massive battlefield unfolded.

Scenes of generals engaging in one-on-one duels on horseback flashed by, and the image of an emperor sitting on a throne looking down was also shown.

How much time had passed?

Before I knew it, I was in the waiting room.

The waiting room where you could set the game mode.

As soon as I entered, I received a chat request from Dong-su, who had logged in earlier.

“Didn’t you say you were having a dinner? Why are you in so early?”

“There were minors, so it didn’t last long. We’ll see each other often anyway.”

“Yeah, that makes sense. Hold on, I’ll invite you soon. Everyone’s already in.”

As expected from game enthusiasts.

They were playing Fantasy War even while their streams were on break.

No wonder there were many unfamiliar names in the Twipod top ranks lately.

After a brief wait, I received an invitation from Dong-su.

[Player <Kan> has sent you an invitation for <Group Co-op> mode. Do you accept the invitation?]

Upon accepting, the background changed instantly, and I was faced with streamers dressed in oriental-style robes.

Except for one, all were familiar faces.

The people who had prepared <Samurai Wars> together last time.

Dong-su, Yoo-seon, and Sae-rin.

The other person was someone I was seeing for the first time in person but was a well-known streamer under ChickenBox.

“Hello, Sha! It’s our first time meeting despite being in the same company! I’m Jisoo, using the streamer nickname Yeojin.”

She greeted me faster than anyone else and extended her hand.

I lightly shook her hand and nodded.

“Hello, senior.”

“Oh, that’s a bit much. Just call me Jisoo! We’re the same age.”

Yeojin.

A streamer specializing in strategy simulation games.

She’s probably the only female streamer who exclusively plays strategy simulation games.

I had watched her streams a few times even during my military service, not just because she was the only female streamer in that genre.

She had a high level of understanding of strategy simulation games.

She’s one of the streamers most often described as having a ‘sexy brain.’

Her judgment and meticulous details.

She was also an experienced streamer in this field, which is why she was included in our party this time.

Having built significant recognition through the previous Fantasy War series, she would adapt to this new release more easily than anyone else.

In other words, she was the control tower for this <Three Kingdoms War> event.

Streamer <Yeojin> was the strongest card that ChickenBox could present.

She smiled as she shook my hand.

“I’m so glad Sha joined us. Dong-su oppa and the others are… well.”

“Hey!”

“What’s wrong with us?”

“You’re not exactly…”

The other streamers shouted indignantly at her words.

But she lightly ignored their reaction and looked at me with sparkling eyes.

“Sha, you learn games really fast, right? You’ll soon realize, but this new Fantasy War is quite different from the previous series.”

“What do you mean?”

She gave a meaningful smile and nodded at my question.

“Compared to the previous ones, the importance of action, in other words, physical skills, has increased significantly. It’s in line with the recent trends in virtual reality games.”

I had a rough idea of what she meant.

After listening to her, I nodded slightly and looked at her with a faint smile.

“Sha, you’ll be the key player in our Korean team. You understand, right?”

“Hmm, probably?”

“Let’s play the game first.”

With her suggestion, we played the first game.

And an hour later.

Unable to hold back my laughter, I shouted excitedly.

“Isn’t this game absolutely insane?”

I couldn’t help but be confident that this event would be a huge success.
