– Arrowhead: Shin Sang-hyun, are you crazy? You’re provoking Ma Dong-ho like that in front of him? You’re going to get your bones torn apart?
– Octopus Game: Hey, Shin Sang-hyun’s coin is going crazy right now, so why are you splitting the whole thing up? Even Madong-ho can’t guarantee it!
– Dudungtak: No matter what, there is a gap, so do you think Shin Sang-hyun would win? He’s just completely useless.
– A dog that barks when it sees you: Woof woof woof woof!
The sight of Sang-Hyeon raising his hand in front of Madong-Ho was broadcasted in real time through all media outlets.
Needless to say, the popular channel Ptube was so late that the administrator even imposed an age restriction.
“Hoo.”
Behind Madongho, Joo Eunhye looked at Sanghyeon with her arms crossed.
Until now, no player has ever reacted so aggressively to Madongho.
The reason was simple.
Because all the guys who showed that kind of reaction were ‘destroyed’.
Perhaps because of the learning effect, only the guys who played politely ‘survived’ after that.
However, Sang-Hyeon provoked Madong-Ho without hesitation.
As expected, Madongho, with his eyebrows furrowed, leaned his face toward Sanghyeon and spoke.
“Are you sure?”
“Then, since you are confident, aren’t you out to go along with the tricks you are using?”
There was no wavering in Sang-Hyeon’s appearance as he spoke softly with a smile.
The onlookers listened to the conversation going on in voices loud enough for only the two of them to hear, but they did not hear it.
The atmosphere on site was that hot, and emotions were naturally running high.
“It’s not too late, Shin Sang-hyun. It’s a death match. If you’re unlucky, you die. If you are, you become a semi-cripple.”
“That’s what I’m trying to say. If you don’t want to end your career here, then just get out of here.”
“You’re fearless.”
“Aren’t you ashamed? Considering that you asked to face off against a player who is much lower level than you.”
“what?”
“That’s enough. What could I possibly say to a guy who only has udon noodles in his mouth and whose only thought is to cause trouble for others?”
Sang-Hyeon’s words were largely intentional. It was also an expression that Sang-Hyeon rarely used before.
In particular, the words Sang-Hyeon spoke at the end were louder than expected, so much so that they were broadcast right away.
– Arrowhead: This is crazy lol. He hit Madongho with a fatal blow, saying his head was full of udon noodles!
– Utsunomiya: Honestly, looking at the matchup list, I have to admit that I properly deposited money into Mystery.
– Lee Jung-gu: Oh, it’s the perfect weather for Shin Sang-hyun to die.
– Panty House: I don’t know what the association is doing. Isn’t this a loss for our country no matter who dies?
– Mystery: But if you want to become a named person, you can’t refuse this, right? All the named people in our country come from Mystery Match.
Chats in the broadcast where heated conversations take place.
Clearly, the majority acknowledged the imbalance in power, but the reaction was that it was a matchup they wanted to see.
There were quite a few cases where people defended it, saying it was a kind of rite of passage.
It was also proof that while everyone was rooting for Sang-Hyeon, they were also questioning his growth.
In other words, the dominant view was that they wanted to use this opportunity to clearly demonstrate their capabilities externally.
On the one hand, there was also a bad symbol that hoped that promising young people who were growing without any hesitation would receive a ‘real education’.
“Let’s see if you can open your mouth in the arena. Miss Match? I don’t care about that kind of thing. You’re dying today.”
“I see. If he asked me to set up a match like this, then I can tell what kind of guy he is. I’ll see you later.”
Sang-hyeon quickly left, looking at Madong-ho as if he were trash and disgusted.
The expression was so realistic that even Eunhye Joo, who was watching, had a change in her expression.
“That dog…”
Madongho gritted his teeth as he watched Sanghyeon’s back moving away.
It’s obvious that I was the one who planned everything from beginning to end, so why do I feel bad?
It seemed that it was because of Sang-Hyeon’s reaction, which was completely different from what he had expected, that he would be scared.
* * *
The rumor spread like wildfire.
While waiting in the waiting room for the showdown with Madongho.
Sang-Hyeon was checking the contacts from numbers registered only by people he was personally acquainted with.
Kim Mi-so only sent a short message wishing for safety.
Perhaps it was a small consideration to avoid making Sang-Hyeon nervous by talking too long.
The message from Ham Ji-yeon and Do Kyung-hye was so full of worry that I stopped reading it.
Because I felt the regretful feelings of the two people. Of course, I didn’t listen carefully because it was an expected reaction.
What was interesting was what Yui Kosaka, who had flown in from Japan, had to say.
[In Japan, a live video of Sang-Hyeon is being broadcast in relation to the mystery invitation.]
[There’s quite a bit of interest. We have a lot of fans who like growth stories with drama.]
[Honestly, I’m really worried, but I’m sure you’re confident!]
After hearing her words, I searched on my smartphone.
There were definitely more viewers on the Japanese YouTube channel than on the domestic one.
In particular, Sang-Hyeon was experiencing a surge in visitors to channels related to him, to the point where there were delays.
“This is a real showcase.”
Although I responded with that in mind, I definitely felt like things had gotten a lot bigger.
Add a little bit of a lie, this is an event that is attracting attention from anyone interested in player-related content.
That’s how the invitation started.

As expected, the match called Safe Match received a lukewarm response.
Wearing all protective gear and safety equipment, the gauge is reduced like in a battle action game.
Of course, it was fun to watch as it was, but viewers weren’t that enthusiastic.
Because they know that it’s a game of Go-Stop that they’re both playing together.
In reality, since the players knew they wouldn’t kill each other, they often performed according to the agreed sum.
They use this as an opportunity to show off their skills, rather than risking their lives.
Only after finishing all the safe matches, like doing overdue vacation homework, did the mood heat up.
Viewers who had only turned on the channel but had not been watching began to flock in large numbers.
A duel between spear and shield.
The related media was already packaging the matchup between Sang-Hyeon and Ma Dong-Ho in a plausible way.
Additionally, the odds of overseas gambling sites were calculated in real time.
The odds for Madongho’s victory were 1.05 times! In short, everyone predicted Madongho’s landslide victory.
A huge amount of money was being poured into Madongho’s victory, thinking that it was an easy opportunity to increase the capital by 5%.
‘I’d like an extreme speed battle.’
Sang-Hyeon finished his thoughts before going into battle.
Of course, he had no intention of showing recognition to Madongho or of putting his sword away at the end.
There is no joke in this world.
It is also impossible to risk one’s life as a joke.
It was only natural for Sang-Hyeon, who had experienced firsthand the precious value of human life.
“5 minutes.”
Of course. We have to decide within this time. After all, Madongho is stronger than me.
The more time you give them, the quicker they will fill in the gaps, especially if they are a defensively oriented player.
Considering all variables, we need to have a result within 5 minutes. Either Sang-Hyeon dies or Madong-Ho dies.
– Hello, audience!
at that time.
The presenter’s voice was heard.
It was the voice of a host who has been active as a famous caster in various fields including e-sports.
It was also a voice that Sang-Hyeon often heard when watching game TV before he awakened as a player.
– The Mystery-hosted, Korea Players Association-sanctioned Death Match is about to begin!
– We invited two experts ahead of the match. We invited So Hyeong-jun and Dokgo Yoon to provide commentary!
“… … ?”
It was an unexpected appearance of commentators. This is because they usually bring in reporters who are players.
So, the issue was when Park Jeong-min provided commentary.
In fact, there were many cases where reporters with little recognition came forward as commentators and made their names known.
But this time, the weight of the commentators has completely changed.
Swordsman So Hyeong-jun. Swordsman Dokgo Yoon.
A situation where two of the inspectors’ names did not simply watch, but participated in the commentary by adding their own opinions and insights!
‘This is crazy.’
Sang-Hyeon laughed.
It turned out well.
Anyway, the two are opponents who will inevitably face each other in the process of growing up.
And enemies who are very likely to be in a hostile rather than a friendly position.
It seemed like there would be no harm in making one’s presence known for sure.
“Whether I win or lose, I’m sure I’ll become a celebrity.”
The simple conclusion is:
Clank. Clank. Clank.
Sang-Hyeon stood up from his seat.
All preparations are complete.
The nameless sword, which felt much more comfortable in my hand than usual, felt good today.
Even if you swing it without thinking, it feels like the guy will keep the beat.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
In the waiting room, where the cheers of the crowd gathered at the scene were completely blocked out, the excitement was not yet felt.
But when Sang-Hyeon stood in front of the exit leading out of the waiting room.
Chew. Shh.
The door to the perfectly soundproof waiting room opened with a swoosh.
and.
Wow! Wow!
A cheer was heard.
The first thing that caught my eye was the large number of players in front of me and the flags waving above them.
It was clearly a symbol and flag symbolizing the Sun Guild. They were the people who supported Madongho.
‘I guess I can consider this an away game.’
Sang-Hyeon burst into laughter.
It felt like watching the South Korean national team play against Iran in a World Cup qualifier.
All the crowds in sight were only cheering for Madongho.
But right then.
“Shin Sang-hyun, fighting!”
“We believe in justice! Please do something about that tough-haired prosecutor who is causing trouble!”
“We, the Fire Sword Ghosts, cheer for Do Kyung-soo, and cheer for Shin Sang-hyun even more! You can do it!”
Behind Sang-Hyeon, where he couldn’t look, a hot shout was heard from above.
They all shouted Sang-Hyeon’s name in unison, giving him strength.
‘Wow. There’s more than I thought.’
The other side was the people who supported the Sun Guild and Madongho.
This side was full of people cheering for Sang-Hyeon.
Giant placards, which had been made somewhere, were also showing off their grandeur here and there.
On the other side.
Kwuung. Thump. Thump.
The giant Madongho walked slowly towards Sanghyeon with an arrogant gait.
The greatswords held in both hands were swords that looked twice as thick and heavy as the greatsword held by Sang-Hyeon.
‘At least it looks like it’ll be a legendary artifact. If I win, it’s mine, right?’
Naturally, the death match of mystery also applies to the winner-take-all condition. The loser loses everything.
Seeing.
Sang-Hyeon raised his nameless sword while facing Madong-Ho.
5 minutes. Or 300 seconds.
A match that must be held here.
It won’t be easy though.
If you win, you will gain so much. I dare say that it will be a major turning point in your life after the regression!
Because taking down a named entity is close to a ‘miracle’ that could never happen in common sense.
– Then, from now on, the death match between players Madongho and Sanghyun Shin! Let’s begin… … … !
With the caster’s voice echoing throughout the stadium, a life-or-death match began.
And right from the start.
Pfft!
“Oh!”
“It’s gone!”
Sang-Hyeon’s appearance disappeared without a trace.
