The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 4 Episode 181
59. Working Holiday (1)
Winter had finally arrived in Cheese Village.
Whoooooosh…!
The village fields were nearly frozen solid, and no crops were being produced.
[Cheese Village “Agricultural Frost Damage” – Only the Lord’s Grace to Rely Upon]
Such an article appeared in the Balloon Daily.
Only the Knight Order was successfully cultivating crops.
-Miho: This too must be the Lord’s grace…
Green Tea: The master is doing it again… ㅠㅠ
-Ppulranem: Simply radiant!
The comments under the Knight’s posts were always similar.
Nothing but praises for the Lord.
It couldn’t be any other way.
“Hey. What kind of comment are you writing right now!? Huh!?”
Snap.
The “Bae” family members wearing obsidian armor were monitoring the village almost like rat catchers.
“Are you insane!? Huh? How dare you end your praise for the Lord with just ‘simply radiant’!?”
“Ah, no, why are you doing this! I’m being sincere!?”
Ppulranem was dragged away by the Bae family members.
“Write a hymn of praise to the Lord with at least a thousand characters right now.”
“Ah, I got it, so let me go!”
Hahahaha so obvious lol
“Daegam ascends to heaven lol”
-Is this… really the healing village?
The Knight Order’s tyranny grew stronger with each passing day.
The villagers couldn’t obtain food without them, and viewership was dropping.
“Ah, oh no! Please give us even a bit of food! Yes!? We’re starving to death!”
Starving to death partly referred to the viewers as well.
“Then you come to the Knight Order’s public recruitment and do a show and pull! Get those filthy hands away!”
“I, I’m sorry!”
The Bae family members were particularly brutal.
They seemed to be selected specifically for such roles.
Hahahahahahaha
-Well done
-This is it~
Haha, seriously though
The more brutal they became, the more excited the viewers grew.
Thus, winter deepened in Cheese Village, and everyone submitted to the Knight Order’s rule.
But not everyone.
A day when snow storms pour down.
“Buy iron ore~ Buy iron ore~”
Two people selling iron ore.
Zelru and his mother Chocosong.
“Buy iron ore~! You can use it for farming tools too?!”
Asking someone to buy iron ore for farming tools when they hadn’t used the Bioyeokto made from the main craft and had suffered frost damage was madness.
Baeksuk came out and vented his frustration.
“Damn it, you crazy bastard! Can’t you see the state of the crops right now!?”
Thwack!
The stone he threw struck Zelru.
“Tsk. Lowly miners. How pathetic.”
hahahahahaha
Poor miner ㅠㅠ
-Zelruto!!
-Hahahahaha
Baeksuk’s viewers were loving it.
Zelru’s viewers too.
Hahahahaha lol
I’m dying laughing
That’s hilarious lol
‘No, now that they’re watching…’
Deep within Zelru’s heart, the malevolent spirit of his father’s legacy, ‘Jello’, tried to open its eyes.
But he deliberately shook his head and suppressed it.
“B-Back off! Demon! Back off!”
“W-Zelru, what’s wrong?”
Chocosong asked while buttoning up Zelru’s shirt.
“N-No! Mother! Inside me… inside me… there’s a demon! I… Jello!”
Hahahahahahaha
That’s some real firepower.
-Hahahaha
How am I supposed to win when all I have is jello and stuff like that ㅠㅠ
Jello lol
“What are you saying, Zelru. Jello… your father is gone from this world. He wasn’t a demon! The real demon is…”
Chocosong pointed toward somewhere with an exaggerated gesture.
There, towering high, the ruler of this world.
Aseng.
“The real demon is in Aseng.”
lol
-The real demon is in Aseng… by Chocosong
Haha, that’s hilarious
-What exactly is Aseng supposed to be…
-Lolololol
“Aseng?”
“Yes. Your father died honorably there. He was an independence activist.”
“…B-but then what are we supposed to do! We’re treated as lowborn! We have to scavenge from abandoned mines!”
I’m crying / Sob sob sob
-Euk
The reality of being an independence activist ㅠㅠㅠ
“L-look over there!”
Zelru pointed to a certain house.
A massive house with a gleaming green roof.
Comparable to Danmuzip, the old headquarters of the Knight Order.
It was Greentea’s house.
“He betrayed the true journalist Farmer’s Daily! He clung to the Knight Order! And became wealthy like that! Such a treacherous collaborator!”
-Treacherous collaborator lololol
-Zelru, that treacherous collaborator was your father…
Distorted view of history lol
-Treacherous collaborator is such a stretch lol
-This is how scary education can be lol
“What can you do. Justice doesn’t always prevail, Zelru.”
“?”
Those words hadn’t come from Chocosong.
[Huchoo]
Huchoo, wearing a black robe, had appeared.
“H-Huchoo?”
Chocosong was startled.
But this is Cheese Village?
Is she truly a seeker of vengeance?
“But we will set everything right, Zelru. So… just wait a little longer. For your father’s revenge….”
“When will you do it?”
“Huh?”
Zelru was different from the start.
Haha, seriously lol
-Such a bold boy…
-The protagonist’s character is truly different
“When are you going to avenge my father?”
“That… we’re currently searching for something… a new power….”
“Power and all that, I’m dying here. My mother and I are dying. Just buy me an iron mine right now!”
“I-iron mine? We have plenty left in our village? Do you have food? We can buy that.”
“What?”
You want to trade for food?
Sparks of fury ignited in Zelru’s eyes.
“You said you’d avenge Father! It was all a lie!”
“No, no! We’re struggling too… We’re just——”
“This is why! Our father is dead because of this! Get lost! You pathetic beggars!”
-Hahahahahaha
-Lmaooo
-???: He’s just like his father.
Just now, it was Jello? lol
I can’t translate this as it appears to be corrupted or garbled text with random characters and laughter symbols (ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ). It doesn’t form a coherent Korean word or phrase.
“Zelru. You said you were selling iron ore?”
In the meantime.
Doughnutz approached.
During this time, Huchoo hurriedly hid and fled somewhere.
“Ah, someday! You’ll understand our intentions! Zelru!!”
Shouting this.
Doughnutz glanced back in that direction wondering what that was about, but soon his gaze turned toward Zelru.
“Oh. Elder. Did you come to buy iron ore?”
This was because Zelru clung to Doughnutz and asked.
After all, Doughnutz had plenty of money and connections with Father, didn’t he?
Hope kindled within me.
“Yeah. That’s right. I came to buy some iron ore.”
-Nice
-Uncle…
-This is helping out lolol
“Elder! You’re friends with our father, right!? You’re Zelru’s Old Enemy, aren’t you!?”
Buy more from us.
“Uh, well! Who said friends! Friends! We just… Huh? We just worked together for a bit! That’s all!”
I’m crying / I’m so sad
-You’re Zelru’s Old Enemy lolol
-Hahahahahaha
I’m crying / I’m so sad
-Nolol
-Failedlol
“Anyway, the iron ore… give me one box.”
Doughnutz seemed eager to finish his business and leave as quickly as possible.
“One, one whole box!?”
Zelru’s face brightened instantly.
“The Agricultural Cooperative is still the only farming cooperative that’s running. We need large quantities. We have to make farm tools in advance when we buy iron ore.”
“Understood! You’re truly Zelru’s Old Enemy.”
“Ugh, that’s not it!”
Zelru filled an entire box to the brim and set it out.
Ding~!
Doughnutz tossed a single coin.
“That’s it, right?”
Exactly 1 gold.
It wasn’t even enough to buy half a box, let alone a full one.
“…Um, Mister Doughnutz? That’s not the right price…”
-Suddenly so polite to Doughnutz lol
lol
-Zelru’s corruption arc incoming lol
-Wasn’t he supposed to be an elder lol
“Tsk tsk. You’re young and don’t know any better, do you? It’s winter now, so ore is dirt cheap! Listen here, kid. Just be grateful an adult is giving you anything and take it!”
“…”
-Doughnutz is genuinely impressive in his own way lol
-No way lol
-And so all the villagers build their character arcs
-Zelru’s becoming Zelscam instead of Zelruto
-Time to escape this village
It was then that Zelru made a decision.
“No. Screw this. If that’s the price, I’m not selling!”
To embrace the demon within himself.
“What, what!? To an elder!?”
“Hand it over! You brat!”
“You’re just like your father!? Huh!?”
“Yeah, you little bastard!”
Whack! Crack!
Zelru leveraged his high miner level and swung his pickaxe at Doughnutz.
-Lmaooooo
-True to form, Zelru the man of conviction!
-Insane lol
-Huh lol
“Ugh!”
Fortunately, Doughnutz didn’t die.
[Stunned]
But he fell into a stunned state.
Zelru grabbed the ore box and all the extra money, trying to make his escape.
Grab.
Chocosong caught Zelru’s hand and stopped him.
“Zelru! I told you not to use that power!”
“M-Mother?”
“That’s evil! Father died because of that! That power… you mustn’t use it!!”
“Is that… the Miner’s power?”
“…”
Chocosong fell silent for a moment before reluctantly nodding.
“Yes.”
-What kind of power is that lol
-lololololol
-Everything gets sealed lol
-lmao
A brief silence fell.
Zelru, his head bowed, muttered softly.
“Mother. But we can’t live like this.”
“Zelru.”
“This cursed village. If only we could escape! I’ll awaken the ‘Jello’ within me… the Miner’s power…”
“Zelru!?”
Zelru clutched his chest and unleashed a performance of pure conviction.
“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
-lololololololol
-lololololololol lmao
-lololol
-Haha
-Viewer launching rockets~!
-He’s insane lololololol
“Okay, okay! I got it! So we’re heading to Paprika, right?”
“Grrrraaaaaahhhhh!”
“L-Let’s go! Paprika! Let’s goooo~!?”
Shortly after.
“Huff… pant… w-why am I… why did I calm down…”
And so Zelru escaped to Paprika Village together with Chocosong.
Dreaming of building a new life there.

* * *
Ding.
[Almond has logged in.]
Almond logged in early in the morning.
“Hmm.”
Aseng looked unusually empty, with hardly anyone around.
No Danmuji, no Goguma.
No Song-ja Bae either.
Barely any Bong-ja Baes around.
But there was exactly one person.
[Mosol]
“Master! You’ve arrived!?”
Dash.
Mobunji came running as soon as he realized the master had arrived.
“No. Mo… no, Mobunji. What are you doing at this hour?”
“I was working. I received fertile soil from Jujo, so I must do my part diligently, mustn’t I?”
Hehe.
Mosol grinned widely, delighted to have run into the master.
-How is the Knight Order’s main job farming lol
-Mobunji…
-Lmao
True knight lol
-The farming knight lol
‘Getting a shot with Almond in the same frame. It was worth coming early and waiting.’
In truth, he had been waiting because he wanted to be captured on camera with Almond.
But then someone appeared to interrupt that moment.
Merang from Song-ja Bae’s household.
Meseung.
“M-Master! You’ve arrived!?”
Spark.
Mobunji glared at her.
But she paid him no mind and bowed her head.
She had a definite reason for coming.
“Oh. Meseung. You’re up and working early too?”
“Yes. But I… I have something to report!”
“What is it?”
“Jel… Jello… no, that Zelru has deserted Cheese Village!”
“…Deserted? But who is Zelru?”
“H-He’s Jello’s son!”
“When did he have a son?”
“That’s… well, that’s how it happened.”
Hahahahahahaha
Hahaha, I’m flustered by this sudden turn of events haha
That ninja defector is scary ㄷㄷ It was Zelske, not Zeluto
Hahaha, that’s so funny!
Ugh, Zelo…
“So Jello’s son, Zelru, deserted from Cheese Village?”
“Yes. He took his bed with him, and there are many witnesses. What should we do? Should we pursue him?”
“Where did he desert to?”
“Probably… to Paprika Village. His mother went with him too….”
“His mother?”
“Chocosong.”
“!?”
Hahahahaha
Almond-shaped eyes expression lol
haha that’s hilarious
What kind of setting is this lolol
-The wedding expansion pack is insane~
“Uh, well….”
“Should I assemble a pursuit squad? We need to make an example….”
Mobunji steps forward here.
“I’ll go myself! I’ll catch them in no time!”
Mobung is hilarious lol
-S-scary, Mobunji
That crazy guy is scary.
“No. Just leave it.”
“Sir?”
If they went to Paprika Village anyway, it didn’t really matter.
“We’re attacking Paprika Village today anyway.”
“!?”
hahahahahaha
Complete reversal lolololol
That’s right lol
Pickled radish was said to be going/selling well.
Haha, I barely managed to escape, but there are knights there too lol
“We need to create miners to work in our place. Since no one from Cheese Village will do it… I’m going to make Paprika do it.”
-??
ㅋㅋㅋ (laughing)
Why would you just leave it like that?ㅋㅋ
Haha, that’s funny!
-It’s colonization…
Mobunji softens the term as he speaks it.
“Ah… So it’s a kind of foreign labor supply system?”
“No.”
But Almond waves his hand.
There’s a better way to put it.
“Working holiday.”
“Ah…!”
I’m dying laughing haha
Hahahahaha
Calling colonialism a working holiday lol
-Breaking news) England launches massive working holiday initiative…
-Wow
Clap!
Mobunji applauds in admiration.
“Truly befitting the Great Lord!”
Mobunji’s viewers, infected by his enthusiasm, shower praise on Almond.
-Heh.
-Aseng really is different
-Operation codename “Holiday” is so cool
-Is this corporate-style naming?
Operation: Foreign Workers vs. Working Holiday lol
In any case, Paprika Village is about to become a massive working holiday destination.
It becomes a mining operation for Cheese Village.
This was the grand vision Almond had been cultivating.
The path a dictator must demonstrate.
Power extending to foreign lands.
“Once Bong-ja Bae and Song-ja Bae arrive, we depart immediately. Get everyone ready.”
“Yes!”
Snap!
Both Mobunji and Meseung salute and scatter off in different directions.
