The Villain is Too Good at Broadcasting
Chapter 48: I Came to End This War (2)When I jumped directly into the battlefield, most of the Japanese players’ forces had already been annihilated.
Only about 10% of their forces remained.
On the other hand, the Chinese forces still had about 30% left.
Despite being at a numerical disadvantage, the Japanese side had put up a decent fight.
Perhaps it was because they were in a defensive position.
Even the number of Chinese cavalry, considered the main force, had significantly decreased.
Riding my horse, I advanced slowly.
Then, the Chinese AI soldiers charged at me.
Spearmen boasted their sharp spears.
It seemed they automatically targeted me because I was on a red horse.But my red horse was already equipped with the best armor.
Legendary grade horse armor.
As per our team’s basic strategy, most resources were invested in my equipment.
This special horse armor, made with considerable resources, couldn’t be pierced by mere spears.
Thus, I trampled over the enemy soldiers with my red horse without hesitation.
Soon, the Japanese and Chinese players looked at me with various expressions.
The Chinese players showed irritation, while the Japanese players seemed to sigh in relief for some unknown reason.
Tsk tsk.
“This is our battlefield! You can take first place, just leave this battle…”
“We will give you all our resources. So please, crush the Chinese players in this battle!”
While Xiao Xu from China harshly yelled at me, the Japanese players desperately pleaded with me in unison.
Did they forget the performance I put on yesterday?
Or maybe, there’s some punishment for placing third.
It was certainly possible with China.
Even if it’s a game, if China’s pride was hurt, the government might intervene.
Since it was content broadcasted worldwide.
I alternated my gaze between the two and let out a chuckle.
– Look at those pathetic Japanese guys, lol.
– Did they already forget using the war flag yesterday?
– Are they empty-headed or just pathetic?
– Lol, have they ever not been pathetic? Have you heard of Pathetic Leaf Village?
– ?
– In these times?
Viewers reacted with a variety of comments seeing the players from both countries.
But there was one common theme.
Mockery.
My viewers already understood why I joined this battle.
Of course, the Japanese players, unaware of this, took this opportunity to attach their soldiers to me.
And they loudly proclaimed.
“We will attach our soldiers to you…”
Slash.
I grinned as I mercilessly beheaded a Japanese swordsman who had approached from behind.
And I shouted with delight.
“Why are you all acting so close? I came to kill everyone anyway. By now, our forces should already be moving. If you check your territory, the invasion must have started in earnest.” ȒᴀɴꝊʙΕṡ
The players from both countries frowned deeply at my words.
Through the map function provided to them, they would be receiving real-time invasion reports.
On the Chinese side, Sae-rin and Yoo-seon were leading.
On the Japanese side, the Empress and Dong-su were in command.
The Korean forces, split into two teams, were quickly advancing towards the centers of each faction.
“You all know the defeat condition of this game, right? If you have no land and no forces, it’s game over.”
Even if I died here, Korea’s victory was guaranteed.
However, the situation was different for the other two.
The side whose forces were annihilated first in this battle would lose.
Realizing this, the Chinese players immediately attacked the Japanese forces, but the Japanese forces were already attached to me.
As I slashed through the charging Chinese soldiers again, I nodded.
“Let’s see. Bloodlust, Berserk, activate skills.”
[Activating Active Skills <Bloodlust> and <Berserk>!]
[Due to your high intelligence, the skill effects are doubled!]
Thanks to my initial investment in intelligence, the efficiency of various skills was maximized.
All my skills were focused on sustainability.
Even though my base attack power was low due to a lower strength stat, the synergy between my equipment and skills was immense.
It wasn’t my intention when I invested in intelligence.
But, as always, it seemed the God of Broadcasting was blessing me.
“Kill them all!”
“Ignore that Korean! At least kill the Japanese forces! We need to annihilate them to get second place!”
– They must be really worried about not getting second place, lol.
– They’re desperate.
– Does China have something like a coal mine?
– Even if they don’t have a coal mine, they probably have something similar.
– So, what will our villain choose?
Amidst the desperate cries of the Chinese, the battle, which had momentarily calmed, flared up again.
This time, it wasn’t a well-organized fight but a chaotic brawl.
Even the players who had been passive until now drew their weapons and started fighting directly.
It showed just how desperate they were.
But in front of me?
Not a chance.
I approached a Chinese player who was leading the charge and cutting down Japanese soldiers.
When the Chinese player saw me, he glared and shouted in frustration.
“Why, why are you doing this to us!”
I shrugged and answered in the most nonchalant tone possible.
“Just because?”
“…What?”
“I just saw you. And it seemed a bit unfair.”
“What’s unfair!”
“Come on, you’ve been fighting five against four all this time, right? So, I thought I’d even the numbers. Actually, since you’ve been fighting like that, I should take two of you to make it fair.”
“You trashy demon bastard!”
Goodness.
I never thought I’d hear such curses from a Chinese person in my life!
– Is it because of the translation? The curses seem mild.
– “For our villain, that’s probably just a casual greeting, right?”
– “Lol, the Chinese guy is cute.”
– “In this industry, that’s a reward, hehe.”
I looked at the Chinese player grinding his teeth at me and smiled.
“Don’t worry. I’ll end it all here.”
Deciding the winner of this battle was my job.
Grinning widely, I charged at him. He swiftly swung his spear to block my attack.
However, my red horse easily dodged his spear and knocked him down with its hooves.
At the same time, I jumped off the horse and plunged my sword deep into the fallen Chinese player’s neck.
Schwook.
The sword pierced through his neck, and his body quickly turned gray.
The color signifying incapacitation.
Grinning at the defeated Chinese player, I said,
“Take a rest, old man. I’ll send someone to keep you company soon.”
I always felt so good in situations like this.
It was time to wrap things up.
4.
The battle between China and Japan was neck and neck until the end once I joined, but ultimately, the victors were the Chinese.
Even though I had eliminated two Chinese players, the difference in troop numbers couldn’t be overcome.
“Waaah!”
“We won!”
“We survived, we really survived!”
The surviving Chinese players hugged each other, shedding tears of joy.
It was just a game, so was there a reason to cry like that?
I looked at them with a nonchalant expression and asked,
“Hey, did something happen if you placed third today?”
Then Xiao Xu glared at me and burst out in frustration.
“It’s all your fault this happened!”
“Wow, you’re too engrossed in a digital scrap.”
“Di-digital scrap?”
“Oh, and the Japanese army isn’t completely annihilated yet.”
“…What?”
“There’s still one Japanese player alive.”
There was still some time left before our team could occupy the enemy territories.
Four Japanese players were out, but one player remained.
I turned around with a grin.
Just in time.
“You’re here? Took you long enough.”
Earlier, I had made a separate request to the Empress.
It was to transport Nagatomo, whom we had captured.
Nagatomo, tied up in ropes, was glaring at me, grinding his teeth.
“What are you plotting!”
“Well, I’m just such a nice person. Since you got humiliated in Japan because of me, I should at least give you a chance to recover.”
Saying that, I tossed him some basic equipment and untied the ropes binding him.
I looked at Nagatomo and spoke cheerfully.
“If you cut down those Chinese, your Japanese team can avoid last place. How about it, interested?”
A chance to restore his honor.
With Nagatomo’s skills, he could easily take down the remaining Chinese players, who were just middle-aged men.
Nagatomo, realizing this, hesitated as he looked at the equipment on the ground.
Then, as if making a decision, he quickly donned the gear and charged at the Chinese players.
Certainly, second place was better than third.
With Korea’s victory already assured, avoiding last place was crucial.
Fueled by determination, Nagatomo didn’t even glance at me and immediately attacked the Chinese players.
Three against one, a significant disadvantage.
But Nagatomo, showing the physical prowess befitting a pro gamer, started pushing the Chinese players back.
– His physical abilities are top-notch, damn.
– Lol, he’s charging at them foaming at the mouth.
– Our villain is really a bastard. How does he come up with this?
– At this rate, the Chinese might get killed first.
– ???
– Are you forgiving the guy who used the war flag? That’s messed up.
The viewers mixed exclamations of awe and curses as they watched Nagatomo’s performance.
I looked at the chat and grinned.
“Just shut up and watch. The content isn’t over yet.”
After temporarily quelling the viewers’ complaints, I turned my gaze back to Nagatomo.
He was moving much more intensely than when he fought me last time.
Should I say it was an action befitting the best pro gamer of <Samurai Wars>?
The middle-aged Chinese players stood no chance against a pro gamer in his prime.
Just like when they fought me before, they fumbled and allowed attacks.
One by one, the three Chinese players began to fall.
Ten minutes after Nagatomo joined the battle.
The only ones left standing on the battlefield were me, Nagatomo, and Xiao Xu from China.
Xiao Xu was trembling as he glared at Nagatomo.
It seemed like his life depended on this game.
That look of sheer terror.
Was he really going to be executed if he lost this game?
Seeing Xiao Xu’s face, Nagatomo swung his sword even faster.
I quietly watched the scene, then quickly approached Nagatomo from behind.
Without hesitation, I plunged my sword into Nagatomo’s back.
Puuuck.
– ???
– Lololololololol
– Killing him twice, you bastard, lol.
– I acknowledge this kind backstabbing.
– Wow, was he just giving him false hope until the end?
– You, you are… really.
“You, you bastard!”
“When did I say I’d stand by?”
“You filthy Korean!”
“I told you.”
Thud.
Nagatomo’s critically wounded body fell to the ground, and I looked at his corpse with a wide smile.
“I came to end this war, remember?”
< Fantasy War: East > Event, Three Kingdoms War.
Korea 1st place.
China 2nd place.
And.
“Japan is just right for 3rd place!”
Japan 3rd place.
The Japanese, who used the war flag, ultimately lost, trapped in false hope until the end.
