The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 4 Episode 142
46. Public Recruitment (1)
Before the bulletin board in the village square.
[Farmers’ Daily]
The Agricultural Cooperative’s three leaders smiled with satisfaction as they read the Farmers’ Daily.
“This is absolutely crushing the Knight Order’s stock price, isn’t it?”
“They’re really going down. The Knight Order~”
“Finally, the real culprit is revealed.”
Keke.
Doughnutz in particular couldn’t contain the laughter flowing naturally from him.
From the potato magic incident onwards, how much humiliation had they endured?
With this single photograph, they could finally settle everything perfectly.
“This is journalism! This is democracy!”
-lol for real
-Agricultural Cooperative fighting~
-Take over parliament gg
There are limits to how long and how much you can rule with guns and swords.
True dominion comes from the mind.
The media is one of the finest tools for establishing that foundation.
Having won that battle, there would now be no problem with the Agricultural Cooperative controlling and shaking Cheese Village.
That’s how it should have been.
“Wow. But that reflection in the window over there. Is that Bioyeokto?”
“Yeah. I was curious about it too, so I saw it in person. It’s seriously vast.”
“There’s that much Bioyeokto?”
“That’s what I’m telling you?”
But the villagers began to focus on an entirely different detail in the Farmers’ Daily photograph.
‘Huh? What’s this?’
It was similar to how someone’s clothing or accessories at a press conference or prosecutor’s appearance becomes an issue and sells out completely.
“Wow, it’s trash. This is totally—”
“Collusion, huh. Tsk tsk.”
Even as they spoke like this on the surface, their eyes were fixed on the Bioyeokto.
‘Still, it really is vast.’
‘They must have a lot of money.’
The black paradise that all the villagers had once yearned for.
Owl Black.
A region filled entirely with dark, fertile soil.
And it actually existed in this photograph.
Some streamers had already begun laying groundwork with their viewers.
“Honestly, who cares about collusion or whatever. Whoever pays more is the winner.”
-lol for real
-That’s true
-Aseng colluded with the media!! << For real lol
-For real lol doing corporate promotion in the media is a crime?
"The Knight Order said they'd give you a full set of plate armor when you join. Shouldn't the Agricultural Cooperative at least share the burden by paying money?"
-Yeah
-The Agricultural Cooperative is just a kind of cooperative organization. Not employment
-Let's go with the Knight Order honestly lol
-Balloon News also went with the Knight Order. And you're refusing this?
Doughnutz's eyes wavered as I grasped the situation.
'How did it come to this?'
This way, the Agricultural Cooperative was actually advertising the Knight Order's strength instead.
The Knight Order possesses an enormous amount of Bioyeokto, and is a powerful organization that recently wiped out the Agricultural Cooperative and obtained multiple sets of plate armor.
The Agricultural Cooperative Newspaper was saying exactly that right now.
Ding.
[The North Face donated 20,000 won.]
[What if you show pictures of South Korea to the people in North Korea? Tsk tsk]
-Lololololol for real
-The pictures already look different~
-Lololol seriously lol
-East Germany West Germany yikes
Communism ruins everything, even in games ㅠㅠ
It's not like that, it's the Agricultural Cooperative lol ㅠㅠ

* * *
About two hours later.
An enormous crowd had gathered in front of the Knight Order.
"──Kyaaaaaaaaaaa!!!"
As the roar assaulted my ears, my vision filled with a sea of towering heads.
"W-what's going on… huh?"
Hong-cha, who had arrived late, couldn't believe her own eyes.
'What is this? What's happening?'
-No way
-Insane
-What is this??
-Huh??
Her viewers were equally astonished by the situation.
Hadn't they just said that all the applicants were canceling and that no one else would show up?
"Bioyeokto! Bioyeokto!"
"Farmer King! Mon D. Roger!!"
"Big corporations are the best!"
Hong-cha's avatar's eyes glistened with tears.
"Th-thank goodness…."
-No way
Lol Hong Song-yi, are you crying???
No, haha
Are you a knight through and through? ㅠㅠ
Don't cry, black tea ㅠㅠ
"Ah, geez. I'm not crying!"
Hahahaha
-Hey, are you crying?
I'm crying / Sob sob sob
-Cry… cry endlessly…
Hahaha, black tea is surprisingly good at moving/working.
A Knight Order interview wasn't like a real company interview.
It was just a game anyway, so how could this happen?
Hong-cha thought the same way herself.
"No. It's just… I was worried that maybe I'd ruin the Knight Order by joining… something like that…."
Ever since she'd transferred here from the Agricultural Cooperative, she'd been deeply anxious that the Knight Order content would collapse because of her.
When Hong-cha moved from the Agricultural Cooperative to here, the conflict intensified dramatically, and it eventually escalated into an espionage war reminiscent of a cold war, with spies even being planted behind Balloon Gum.
Moreover, she had no prior connection with Danmuji, Goguma, or Almond.
From Hong-cha's perspective, wasn't she just forcibly inserting herself into other streamers' successful content and causing damage?
She couldn't help but be anxious.
However, this wasn't something to simply be moved by.
A problem had arisen within the Knight Order as well.
The Knight Order members gathered to begin their meeting.
"Sir, there are far too many of them. We're not sure how we'll manage this…"
"That's right. It seems the existing examination we prepared will take far too long."
I'd worried they wouldn't show up at all, but now the opposite problem had emerged—there were too many applicants.
"Hmm."
Almond pondered for a moment.
I couldn't simply turn away all these people…
"Let's modify the first round of testing."
He decided to add one more procedure to the process.
"So… you're saying we should add another stage before the arena, sir?"
"That's right. Keep it simple. Gobong will handle personnel control."
"Personnel control? I'll take care of it, sir!"
Gobong's face lit up with delight as he grinned widely.

* * *
Moments later. At the interview application site.
Gobong stepped up onto the platform.
The very sight of him wearing sunglasses exuded an unusual air of authority.
"Phew. Man, these recruits are something else."
Gobong was actually the only one in the Knight Order who had completed military service.
And he'd been a drill instructor at that.
-Gobong lol
-So reassuring! The drill sergeant!
-Company commander lol
-Sunglasses PTSD incoming lol
-Gobong was actually going easy on Songsong and the others lol
"Listen up, you bastards!!"
Bang!
He suddenly barked at the applicants.
"Get in a straight line!!"
Murmur, murmur.
The applicants still hadn't grasped the situation when—
Hongsong-i and Resong-i appeared.
They began kicking the applicants who were out of line one by one.
Thud.
"Get in a straight line, sir!"
"Applicant number 23! Get your head in the game! Line! Straight! Now!"
-lololol
-Resong-i lol
-What the heck lol
-Even Songsong's crew lol
At this, Gobong spoke up.
"You applicants. Did you think this was just some ordinary company or something?! Huh?"
"…."
"You're not answering!?"
"N-no, that's not it!"
The applicants quickly denied it.
'This sucks.'
'What is this?'
'Why did I… re-enlist….'
They instinctively realized they'd stepped onto the wrong path.
Meanwhile, Songsong's crew kept kicking away.
Thud. Thud.
"Don't stick out!"
"Don't!"
Gobong atop the platform adjusted his sunglasses and spoke.
Click.
"You all. Do you want to join the Knight Order?"
At this point, they might have hesitated, but before Bioyeokto, everyone was united.
"Yes!"
"Is that all the volume you can manage!?"
"Yes!!!"
Gobong finally nodded.
"You know how to raise your voice loud. Huh? Does it have to be words to be loud?"
-The combo's insane lol
-Kyaa
-lol this is what a Knight Order is
-Almond without military service could never pull off this aura lol
-Damn, I'm losing it
-Kyaa
Countless villagers who came for an interview suddenly found themselves enlisting.
They were confused, but they still shouted with all their might to pass.
"That's not it!!!!!"
Gobong nodded.
"Good. Now let's see who truly deserves to obtain Bioyeokto… I'll have a look."
Eyes behind the sunglasses scanned across the applicants.
Everyone looked tense.
"A good number of you didn't even apply—you just showed up. Right?"
"Y-yes, that's correct…."
A grating voice echoes out.
"Don't answer so looooudly!!"
"Yes, sir/ma'am!!"
A thunderous response bursts forth.
"The platoon leader is disappointed in all of you."
But Gobong is the one who's disappointed.
-?
-When did he become platoon leader lol
-lololol this is so good
-lmaooo
-We've been waiting for this line
-lololol
"You all knew perfectly well you had to apply, yet nobody did anything. And now that the Knight Order suddenly looks appealing, you're trying to sneak in here!?"
-Real talk lol it's annoying
-Holding a grudge lololol
-Gobong's savage lol
"Our esteemed Knight Order Leader, Almond, places great importance on procedure. Those who show up without even applying—they're all disqualified on the spot. However…."
Gobong trails off for a moment.
Gulp.
Everyone holds their breath.
Like any seasoned instructor, Gobong was adding dramatic structure to even a single declaration.
It worked because everyone stayed focused.
"Just this once! Since this is our first interview! We've decided to show mercy and give everyone who came here a chance!"
"!"
Whoosh!
He pulls down the poster banner he'd been hiding beside him.
Then large letters are revealed.
[Knight Order Public Recruitment]
"Behold! We shall now conduct the Knight Order public recruitment exam!"
The crowd erupts in excitement.
"Wooooooow!!"
-lol seriously
-It's literally a major corporation lol
-Even public recruitment lol
-Settling the score we couldn't in Aseng…
The rules of the public recruitment were as follows.
"First round: right here, right now, maintaining this exact line formation. You'll take a self-introduction test with no questions asked."
First round test.
All the villagers maintain their line as the Knight Order members circulate, listening to their self-introductions.
"We don't have time to question each of you individually. Just step forward and begin your self-introduction."
-No way lol
-First round a cappella rap lol
-No questions self-introduction lol
-Self-introduction cipher damn
"If your self-introduction impresses the interviewer, you'll receive this necklace!"
Clank.
It was a necklace made of iron.
But since it was made of pure iron, it looked more like a chain than a necklace.
-Lol seriously
-That's obviously a slave collar?? lol
-Is this a rap audition
-Passing necklace lmao
-Probably has "dog" written on it
-No way lol they actually brought a chain
To anyone else it looked like a dog collar, but to those desperate to join the Knight Order right now, it was no different from a necklace made of gold and diamonds.
"Wooooooow!"
"Let's goooooo!"
They were Bioyeokto's dogs, after all.

* * *
Moments later.
The first round began immediately.
The interviewers were Almond, Danbong, Gobong, and Hongsong-i.
Resong-i took on MC duties.
"Ehehe?! Another elimination~! The Knight Order isn't easy, is it?!"
She also interviewed the staff and notable candidates.
"Ah. I literally got cut after three seconds. Never again."
"Freaking Nutillian! Blegh!!"
Some applicants seemed quite angry.
Especially at Almond.
-Nutillian lol
-The concept is hilarious lol
-lol
-Everyone's personalities changed lol
Most interviewers would at least listen to the entire self-introduction, but Almond was nothing like that.
"Next."
His interviews were merciless.
"Hi. Let me introduce myself. My name is Kim Mahun, profession traveler…"
"Thank you for your time."
"Huh!?"
"Next."
"Ah, wait! That was totally awesome!"
"We don't hire forty-year-olds."
"…S-so awesome."
This was Aseng-style interviewing.
-I thought he'd reject them for being cocky, but it's because of the name Mahun lol
-lololol so merciless lol
-It's just his name is Kim Mahun…
-lololololol
The reason is so understandable lol
-Age beats everything;
-Goodbye…
-The way he shrinks back is hilarious
-So sharp lol
-Balloon Gum crying lol
Almond adjusted his sunglasses and moved on to the next candidate.
"Next."
"Ah, hello! I've been streaming on T-Tribby for three years…."
"Thank you for your time."
"Wh… why…?"
"Real-world references are prohibited."
"…."
"Next."
Those taking the test with Almond had to maintain strict discipline.
-The reasoning is so clear lol
-No way lol
-???: Twang.
-Literally only your identity within Cheese Village can be mentioned…lol
-He judges at lightning speed and the reasons are spot-on
-This is an interview! This is a public recruitment!
And the next applicant waiting his turn….
'W-why did it have to be Almond….'
He was trembling noticeably.
[Mosol]
It was Mosol.
