I Regressed But The World DidnT Fall Apart

I Regressed But The World Didn’T Fall Apart 62

Back to the Past, the World Isn’t Doomed -62-

062.

For the King-!

For the glory of Wess*x-!

Battle cries filled with honor, pride, and reverence embroidered the battlefield.

What they desire is a sacred victory.

It’s the glory that doesn’t yield even in the face of death!

“Jeonguwoon!”

With the knight raising his spear high, the battle began with a shout.

“Charge-!”

Amidst the thunderous sound of horse hooves shaking the ground, the charge order was given.

Whoa-!

Ahh-!

As morale soared, the knights let out a battle cry and charged forward.

What could obstruct the path to glory that lay before them?

Who would dare to stand in the way of those valiant knights?

That would be…

“Hmm…?”

A man muttered, “Hmm.”

Shunk-

It was a sword that the innkeeper Mei favored.

The kitchen knife that Mei, who was nicknamed “Rose Knife,” and the viewers had named.

Shunk!

Every time the blade flashed once –

“Kerchunk!”

One knight after another fell.

A shower of clashing ceremonies.

Lances flying towards Ido Hyuk’s head.

Weapons well-crafted, befitting the knights of Wesix, a powerful nation.

Shunk-

And amidst them, a rather unimpressive knife.

As Ido Hyuk dodged the attacks, he swung his arm.

“Urgh, ack!”

The knight who was leading the charge screamed, frothing at the mouth.

Seemingly intentionally falling to the enemies’ attacks, it was almost mistaken for a deliberate act of sacrifice.

Shushu- Shunk-

“But seriously, I’ve been curious, why is this… so effective?”

– hahahaha

– hahahahaha, seriously lol

– Ah hahahaha, it’s not losing durability

– hahahahaha, maybe they didn’t set the kitchen knife for combat?

– Yeah, that might be it lol

According to the equipment info, it was a Rose Knife with 5/5 durability.

However, it seemed like the situation it was being used in, unlike combat, didn’t affect its durability at all.

Thanks to that, the Rose Knife taken out as a joke could still be used.

Of course, a kitchen knife was just a kitchen knife.

If it were to clash with an opponent’s weapon, its durability could deplete and be destroyed.

“You!-“

But then… as long as it didn’t clash, it should be fine, right?

Swish- Fwoosh! Shunk!

After repeating that process about ten times.

“Phew, we’ve caught all the pursuers. How many times is this now? The third time?”

– Yes

– Persistent and Tenacious

“How long are they going to send pursuit teams for…”

Once again, Lee Dohyuk had cleared out the entire knights’ order with just a single rose sword.

“Anyway, I should take this moment to express my gratitude to Madam Mei for granting me such a famous sword.”

-hahahaha, damn

-But wait, is it a design flaw that it doesn’t lose durability, or is it an Easter egg?

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

-Huh?

-It’s quite amazing that no one has discovered this until now.

“Who in their right mind would use a weapon that came as a reward for a chicken-catching quest, right?”

As he continued chatting and communicating through the chat window, at that very moment, an alert sounded.

Ding-

[Quest Success!]

It was an alert announcing the success of Lee Dohyuk’s ongoing successor quest.

“Huh?”

He thought it would all end once he had placed the heir, Aethelred, whom he was protecting, on the throne.

Lee Dohyuk opened the quest window to read the explanation.

『Rightful Heir of the Kingdom』

『With the continued annihilation of the knights, the Wess*x Kingdom has given up intervening in the succession battle of the Muscia Kingdom. Dark rumors about players have now begun to circulate within the Wess*x Kingdom.』

“…I see.”

With no more knights to send, the quest explanation signaled its end.

-hahahaha, well, that makes sense. How many knights did he kill?

-Damn, hahahaha

-Is this really an assassination mission?

-Yeah, just kill the target and all the guys who come to get you.

Next, a cutscene unfolded.

Aethelred and Yorund, who were waiting near the village of Count Raphrik, were approached by a dozen mounted knights.

Among them, the armor of the knight in the center was adorned with various elaborate decorations.

[“We greet the rightful ruler of the kingdom!”]

-As they spoke, the knights dismounted and bowed to Aethelred.

When the knight in the most splendid armor knelt, the others followed suit, showing the same respect.

It seemed that once the threat to the Wess*x Kingdom disappeared, the knights of the Muscia Kingdom would naturally come to find Aethelred.

As the cutscene progressed and eventually ended.

“Lynn seems to have left a while ago.”

Lynn, a viewer with the nickname ‘Lynn’ who occasionally applied for missions related to swords.

The viewer, suspected by Lee Dohyuk to be Chiba Lynn, had long since disappeared without a trace.

“Alright. Now that the quest is cleared…”

Now, Lee Dohyuk, who had truly taken the reins, turned off Valhalla, realizing that several hours had already passed since he started playing.

-Ah

-Uwaaa

-Too bad···

-Don’t go!

-See you tomorrow!

“Yes, it’s a shame, but it’s about time to wrap up.”

Nevertheless, there were quite a few viewers who showed a response of inevitability, unlike before.

Before they knew it, it was already 4:30 in the morning.

No matter how many ‘real’ individuals existed in Twark, time did not discriminate. However, since Itohyuk, who usually didn’t broadcast until this late hour, had started broadcasting, he had no choice but to be lenient with the broadcast.

Moreover, since the broadcast started at the regular time of 8 o’clock, it had been quite a while.

“Oh, right. I almost forgot to mention this.”

Itohyuk said as he manipulated something.

Valhalla’s screen went down, and YouTube started.

“My YouTube channel is finally open.”

And the channel named [Itohyuk YouTube] appeared.

No videos were uploaded yet.

Because he hadn’t completed the contract with the editor introduced by Jian.

[Itohyuk YouTube / 17k subscribers / 0 videos]

“Oh? Seems like a lot of you have already subscribed.”

-hahahahaha I watched Jianchu’s broadcast yesterday and subscribed right away

-What? Is the YouTube channel finally up?

-Oh

-You found a good editor?

-??? Are there videos too?

-Some people missed this, hahahaha

-For real, hahahaha

Judging by the chat reactions, it seemed that many had subscribed in advance after watching Jian’s broadcast yesterday.

“Oh, I haven’t stamped the contract yet. But it seems like that person will be the final choice.”

-SsS

-Did anyone watch the video? How was the editing?

-It’s like Tier 1.5 vegetables, yeah

-The editing was on point, good skills too

-Exciting, can’t wait

The chat box showed positive reactions to Itohyuk’s words.

From Noble mtl dot com

It was also Itohyuk’s agreement.

‘The skills are quite good.’

To him, who didn’t know much about YouTube, the video was selected with quality not inferior to videos of other famous YouTubers.

Jian had emphasized multiple times that the friend had excellent skills, although he had some doubts. It turned out to be needless worry.

The editing skills had developed tremendously compared to the past, and it felt like they were being utilized very effectively.

The crucial part of the Full Dive video editing was not just using the broadcast AI that captured the broadcasting screen for the final video, but also adding different angles and perspectives not shown during the live broadcast to make the final video even more dramatic.

In that regard, Ji-an’s friend, Ji-an, could be considered a very capable person.

“I agree. That’s why I plan to meet Ji-an tomorrow to sign the contract and have a meal together.”

– Wow, Senpai Dohyuk’s treat

– Count us in!

– Nah, just turning on the broadcast is enough for me

– True lol

– Ordering chicken and watching Senpai Dohyuk’s broadcast is the best

– It’s still the best even without chicken lol

– Guys… that’s not what ‘best’ means…

– Seriously

“Anyway, I should be going now. Since everyone is late, get some sleep quickly, and I’ll be back at 8 a.m. tomorrow.”

– Bye~

– Take care

– I’m going to rewatch until you come back

– Upload it quicklyyy

Now, Dohyuk, who had become quite adept at broadcasting, easily handled the camera.

**

“Hello, hyungnim!”

To be honest, he had such thoughts.

Since it was said to be Ji-an’s friend, the editor (prospective) would naturally be a woman, wouldn’t she?

Rather than expecting a woman to appear, it was just a natural thought that crossed his mind.

“Oppa, remember him? Why. Yoon Sung from the upstairs who used to follow me around saying I was pretty. Kim Yoon Sung.”

“Hey, what the heck… Hmm. When did I ever? Hyungnim, this is all a lie.”

However, breaking Dohyuk’s expectations, the one who appeared was Kim Yoon Sung, Ji-an’s male friend and childhood friend.

Dohyuk also remembered him.

Not as Ji-an’s childhood friend, but as a connection from the past.

In Dohyuk’s memory, Kim Yoon Sung was a hunter.

Kim Yoon Sung, who was a head taller than Dohyuk, standing at 185cm.

Even his body was solidly muscular, befitting his tall stature.

A body that could easily be mistaken for someone who lifts weights like a professional.

‘But he was a wizard.’

He gained fame in many ways for using magic with that body.

‘His name… was a water mage or something.’

Even though they had no particular connection, this was one reason why Dohyuk remembered him.

Despite handling magic, he seemed more threatening in close combat than most melee-focused hunters due to his imposing physique.

He recalled that he had quite the skill in close combat as well.

However, his unique ability was having eyes that could see mana, which allowed him to handle magic even better.

Dohyuk already had a superior unique ability in mana, so he didn’t copy it, but being able to sense mana, which others could only feel through intuition, was quite a useful skill set.

‘So, is he good at editing too?’

Hunters and Unique Abilities.

Regarding the relationship between the two, Lee Dohyuk had a personal speculation.

The common belief among hunters is that unique abilities are merely coincidental outcomes determined by how a hunter is swept up in a magical storm at the time of awakening.

However, Lee Dohyuk, who could see others’ unique abilities and had copied thousands of them, had a thought he could entertain.

Just as Chiba Rin, who originally had talent with a sword, acquired the unique ability of Sword God, the speculation was that a hunter’s awakening ability might not be significantly related to their original talents or abilities.

And assuming that to be true, Kim Yoonseong’s editing skills also had some connection to his unique ability.

Magic is about flow.

To awaken the ability to see magic is to have an exceptional eye for observing the flow.

“··· Hm.”

However, if Lee Dohyuk, who had obtained the unique ability of ‘Copy’, was already known for excelling at copying others’ abilities, then…

Anyway.

“Then, I’ll sign.”

Swoosh.

After signing, Lee Dohyuk and Kim Yoonseong divided the contract papers.

“Wow, Kim Yoonseong, when I asked you to sign, you didn’t even pretend to listen. Why so enthusiastic now with me?”

“Are you comparing me to your brother? I can’t edit because my eyes hurt from watching your play.”

“What? My skills have improved a lot lately, you know?!”

“You’ll win five rounds? I’m from the fighting family; I can beat you with just one move.”

The contract negotiation proceeded smoothly.

The terms were a 7:3 split of revenue generated through YouTube.

Of course, Dohyuk’s side had 70%.

It was Yoonseong’s initial condition, and since Dohyuk and Jian were considering similar terms, the negotiation concluded without any issues.

“Please take care of me, hyung!”

In most cases, when starting a YouTube channel together, streamers and editors split revenue 50:50, but in Dohyuk’s case, it was a guaranteed success.

No, it could already be seen as a case where about half of the success had been achieved.

Despite not having uploaded a single video yet, as of yesterday, he had 17,000 subscribers, and now, within a day, it had increased to 24,000, showing high viewer interest.

Moreover, even though it had been only a few days, the average viewership of the live broadcast was maintaining around 20,000 to 30,000, indicating a high level of live streaming.

If he continued to upload his videos methodically, not only would he rise on Tworc, but he could easily soar within YouTube as well.

For Dohyuk, who had contracted a skilled editor at a low rate, and for Yoonseong, who had contracted the streamer with the most desired quality for editors, ‘the unique ability to just play itself is special’, it was a satisfying agreement for both.

When everyone had left for the New Murim, there was someone who stood guard over Gangho alone.

Protecting the deserted Pungjinkangho, and still guarding it now, was the top martial artist of Murim, Feng.

RanK #1

The Ultimate

[Dark Girl]

She was the Dark Girl, the protector of Eolpa, not a mere Vagabond Protector.

[PERFECT]

[Victory]

-Kya

-Oh oh

– How’s your form these days?

– hahahahaha, “that soju” really hit the spot.

The chat window buzzed with excitement at the sight of the Dark Girl who had secured a perfect victory from Captain Queue.

Despite being told by Lee Dohyuk, “You’re talentless,” she was still a pro, through and through.

Achieving a perfect win against a pro, let alone facing one, was no easy feat.

[31 wins 13 losses]

Captain Queue, due to age, couldn’t switch to Iron Fist, now surviving on YouTube revenue, chasing after bizarre YouTube angles rather than skill, but the Dark Girl’s insane form wasn’t limited to just one round.

Anatol, Beyonde, Marionette, and others may have left, but there were still outsiders holding their ground.

Not just against Captain Queue, but in battles against them, her win rate had significantly increased.

Her recent win rate was a whopping 70%.

Thanks to this, she had claimed the top spot in the Elpha rankings.

Of course, with many returning to their hometown after briefly claiming the top spot and leaving, in reality, those who seemed to lift her up were merely names on the board.

– But seriously, you’re playing so well?

– hahahaha, after losing to Dohyuk-sensei a few times, seems like she’s finally realized.

– The meta these days is different.

– You have to learn while being right.

– hahahaha, but being so good at Elpha, where do you use it?

– Oh my.

Her improvement in skill was an undeniable fact.

The Dark Girl herself was acutely aware of it.

“Games these days have definitely gotten easier.”

She could somewhat predict where her opponent aimed, what their next move would be, not perfectly, but to a certain extent.

Perhaps, as her viewers said, she didn’t just learn once, but several times, from being hit hard by certain individuals.

She spent her days reviewing replays of her battles with Dohyuk, as well as those provided by Anatol.

“···Now is the time.”

Thus, there was one thing she could set her mind to.

“Everyone, I have an important announcement to make.”

The Dark Girl spoke solemnly.

-?

-Oh

-Boyfriend?

-What is it?

“I···”

The Dark Girl’s mouth opened.

Unfortunately for Elpha fans, it was the moment when the Elpha guardian of Twok changed from the Dark Girl to Jean-Chu.
