The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 5 Episode 9
3. His Way of Survival (3)
“Manager?”
Juhyeok didn’t respond.
-No kick nnnn
-It’s real
-Really not?
-Ah what’s going on lol
-But he said it wasn’t lol
-It’s definitely real Gichan right?
A heated debate erupted in the chat.
To make matters worse.
Ding.
[Mosol donated 10,000 won!]
[It’s real…]
Mosol claiming he was the real one.
-It is real lol
-lolololol “real” lmao
-Ah lol someone screenshot this lol
-Why the sudden introduction lol
Of course, many viewers understood the double meaning hidden in “real.”
[Juhyeok: Is this really him?]
Even the manager hesitated, wondering if it was really him.
But Almond didn’t waver.
‘Jello’s group, purge the malicious ones.’
Almond personally kicked him out.
[Mosol has been banned.]
‘Better to remove him before things get murkier.’
-lmaooooooo
-Ahhhh lol
-Legendaryyyy lol clip this lol
It was understandable that Almond would be confused.
Throughout the day, several donations came in pretending to be Mosol.
And numerous videos maliciously edited from the tteokbokki eating broadcast with Mosol had been circulating.
So his reaction was inevitable.
-Real Mosol kicked out lol
-Oh…
Gi-chan ㅠㅠㅠ
In fact, the Mosol who came this time was the real one.
Unaware of his own injustice.
Almond refocused on the game.
“I’ll just go ahead and clean up that tombstone.”

* * *
[R.I.P]
[Reckless Warrior]
The gravestone stood firmly on the verdant grass, bathed in sunlight.
“…It’s a real grave.”
Hahahaha, for real
-At least they buried him in good land
In the meantime, I buried it in a sunny spot ㅠㅠ
Almond casually asked Reina while he was at it.
“I can remove this, right? Since I’m back.”
“Do whatever you want. What does it matter what a dead man does? Who cares?”
Reina remained as sharp-tongued as ever.
[Intimacy: 97]
Yet her intimacy had increased.
Wow, that’s hilarious lol
-Reina’s intimacy steadily climbs
-The sun rises again today
[Intimacy: 98]
It rose again.
Ding.
[Gyeollileo Gyeolliley donated 3,000 won.]
[Still, the earth keeps spinning…]
hahahaha lol
-Yet intimacy still rises…
-Damn it
What is this, a bug or something? lol
-Still handsome though
-But didn’t Reina change to trust instead?
Almond removed the gravestone.
There was no need to search for a shovel that didn’t even exist in the exchange hall.
As he gently touched the gravestone, a [Dismantle] button appeared, and pressing it simply dismantled it.
“If you don’t come again, I’ll make another one.”
Reina still stood right beside Almond, muttering under her breath.
[Intimacy: 99]
Even as she made threats, her intimacy continued to rise.
“Then I’ll just dismantle it again.”
Almond’s counterattack.
-Are you a grade schooler?
Hahahahaha
Just tell him to come as is lol
“W-well then… I-I’ll make it again!”
Reina refuses to back down.
“Disband it again.”
“I’ll make it again, again, again.”
Almond’s competitive spirit ignites as he continues to respond.
“Then come again and disband again, come again and disband again.”
“Come again…?”
Reina suddenly lowered her head.
She stopped arguing.
Ding.
[Intimacy: 100]
[Relationship has recovered to a deeper level.]
[Intimacy → Trust]
-?
-???
-Huh?
“Like, where exactly is the intimacy level going up?” lol
-Oh it was trust anyway lol;
-Reina was moved by the promise to come again…
Damn it lol
-Boss! One bowl of bleach please!
Trust.
Almond is startled by this word.
“Huh. Trust?”
Their relationship had crossed into the realm of trust.
“Wow. We’ve entered a new territory, everyone.”
Why are you acting like you’ve never seen it before lol
-It was always like that…
I can’t translate this accurately as it appears to be incomplete or corrupted Korean text with abbreviations and internet slang (ㅋㅋ = laughter). The first part “-와 ㅇㅈㄹ” doesn’t form coherent words.
No lol
-He doesn’t remember…
Actually… this isn’t the first time.
They were already in a trust relationship before.
After clearing the three-star dungeon, they had crossed into the realm of trust.
It seems Almond simply doesn’t remember.
Pop!
[Moppung has donated 50,000 won!]
[Brother, I’m going to try this on my crush too. She rejects me? I’ll come back and confess again. Again, and again I’ll come back to confess. Again, again, again, again… Again & Again & Again… like 2PM]
Again and again~
A donation echoing through a male voice that sounded like it had high fat content.
It was a TTS frequently used when wanting to produce an otaku-like voice.
Especially crisp when reading English, so recently it’s become trendy to always write English at the end.
-Hahahahaha
-lol that’s hilarious lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
-Jail ending
I’m not sure what you’re asking for – this appears to be Korean text with repetitive characters and laughter notation (ㅋㅋㅋ), but it doesn’t form coherent words or a clear meaning that can be translated to natural English.
-You’re getting old…
-Is she even your crush?
The English voice is hilarious lol
Hahahahaha (laughing)
“Thank you for the 50,000 won donation, Ppugi.”
Almond gave a brief response and tried to wrap things up.
Boom!
[Moppugi has donated 50,000 won.]
[What do you think about my strategy, brother?]
“…Thank you for the 50,000 won donation.”
What the heck, haha
-Evasive maneuver
“He’s asking why I won’t answer when it’s only 100,000 won lol”
100,000 won vanished ㅠ
-Hahahahaha
As the chat flooded with complaints about why he wasn’t answering, Almond paused to think.
This kind of question was a bit burdensome.
‘I don’t even know myself.’
I’m not exactly an expert in romance either!
So I tried to dodge it.
A bit shamelessly.
“If you want an answer, you could always… donate again, right?”
-?
-??
-?
-Hahahahahaha
That’s hilarious lol
‘Huh? That’s not it.’
Almond sensed he’d stepped into a trap.
“If I can’t answer again, then donate again… No wait. I’m going to go meet Swift.”
“Hey! Where are you going!”
After hastily tidying up, Reina shouted after Almond as he suddenly grew distant.
But Almond had already vanished.
-Heh
-Is this what an alpha male looks like?
ㅋㅋㅋㅋ (lol)
Real man moves lol
-A bad boy never comes home…

* * *
There was something slightly unexpected.
Swift, Ran, and the other Incarnates showed no particular change in affinity.
No, they’d grown slightly distant, but they didn’t react as extremely as Reina did.
“Contractor? It’s been a while.”
Swift showed virtually no reaction, especially since his three-star clear was relatively recent.
“Are you planning to attempt a survival battle this time? It’s similar to a battlefield I experienced in the past.”
He even noticed that Almond had chosen a survival battle and offered him advice.
“Since you’ve heard my past story, you should know that in survival battles, it’s important to strengthen your forces with runes….”
“Yeah. It was nice seeing you after so long, Swift.”
Of course, Almond didn’t listen to all of it.
Hahaha, as expected.
-Ah, skipping the story~
-Looks like he’s gonna skip it
Skip craft lol
Ran was especially delighted to see Almond.
With the smile of a boy as bright as sunlight.
“Almond! You’ve come? I was wondering when you’d arrive.”
This was always how Ran greeted people—with such brightness.
Nothing had changed.
“You’re heading to the battlefield of survival?”
He too mentioned the survival battle.
“In the battlefield of survival, enemies can appear from any direction. But I’m sure you’ll do well, Almond. By the way, why don’t you take a look at the sheep I’ve been raising?”
Baa~
The sheep that Ran raised greeted me warmly.
Their numbers had increased slightly.
“I’m thinking of shearing their wool and selling it later.”
Almond recalled the time he’d played Ran’s story mode before.
‘I’d transformed into a sheep back then.’
I remember being quite flustered since I’d been transformed into a sheep right from the start.
Ran too seemed to have vivid memories from that time, as he was quite fond of sheep.
“It was nice seeing you.”
Almond went around greeting the major avatars, gradually restoring his rapport with them.
“I should head out now, you guys—”
And as he tried to leave the exchange venue.
“Almond!”
Reina came running over.
“You’re heading to the Battlefield of Survival, right?”
She approached him, breathing heavily.
“Yeah.”
Reina hesitated before speaking.
“I’ll rebuild the tombstone.”
-?
-Again?
-Huh?
-Gasp
At first, both the viewers and Almond didn’t understand what she meant.
“Come back and dismantle it again.”
Damn it.
-Haha
-Lol
-Ah…
-Bartender. Cyanide topping on the rocks.
I’m crying / Wahhh / Boo-hoo
Eventually, the viewers typed in despair.
Ding.
[Gaji-bokkeun donated 3,000 won.]
[Please leave quickly before you get mad! Almond! I’m sorry! Please leave quickly before you get mad! Almond! I’m sorry!]
Gaji-bokkeun’s surrender donation drove the final nail in the coffin.
Snicker.
The corners of Almond’s mouth rose subtly.
Hahahahahaha
lol that’s so funny
Hahaha, that’s so funny!
Almond is hilarious lol
Lol, that’s so cringe ㅋㅋㅋ
-Is his ban already lifted?
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ (lol/haha)
Isn’t it salty? lol
Almonds bursting lol
-Why isn’t Gaji-bokkeun banned?

* * *
Almond emerged from the exchange venue at the viewers’ earnest request.
“I’ve built up a solid foundation of rapport. Now it’s time to head to the real battlefield. Let’s jump straight into ranked.”
He immediately turned to Q.
Ting!
[You do not have the qualifications to play ranked games.]
-?
-??
lol
Hahahahahaha
You’re not qualified to play ranked games lol
-Tried to jump straight into ranked from the first match
-Can you even do that?
[You may participate after playing 10 or more normal matches.]
That was it.
Since Almond had never played a single survival match before, normal game experience was essential to participate in ranked games.
“Ah… Well then, I guess I’ll go straight to normal games.”
-Let’s goooo~
How long has it been since you’ve done a solo gaming broadcast ㅠㅠㅠ
-The Reckless Warrior is coming…
Almond’s solo (?) game, happening after a long while.
The viewers were quite excited.
But then─
Ting!
[You must complete the tutorial first.]
He had to start with the tutorial.
“Ah… Well then, I guess I’ll go straight to the tutorial.”
Haha the comment is hilarious
Is this déjà vu or something? lol
-So it’s the tutorial after all

* * *
And so the tutorial began.
Almond was surprised, having expected to be summoned directly onto the battlefield.
“Huh…? We’re flying through the sky?”
Whoooosh!
He was aboard some kind of airship.
“Welcome to the fierce battleground of survival, recruit!”
Over the considerable noise of the airship, a voice that sounded like a Coach rang out.
“This airship is a masterpiece crafted by Taran’s proud magical engineering!”
“Oh…”
“Don’t admire it!”
Boom!
The Coach shouted at Almond, who had responded enthusiastically.
Hahahahahaha
What’s with the admiration lol
Why are you mad? lol
That’s cute lol
“We are now on a battlefield where life and death hang by a thread. Below us lies what we call the ‘Shadow of the Abyss.’ The moment you fall into it, the Shadow of the Abyss will gradually constrict around you.”
It was a concept similar to Battle Large’s blue zone—a magnetic field.
The battlefield’s size would gradually shrink.
“Your team’s objective is to survive until the very end within the encroaching shadow!”
Your team?
Looking around, I realized there were four other teammates.
[HamPunch]
[Baggy]
[OstrichEgg]
[YoYoYo]
The survival match tutorial was actually nearly identical to real combat.
The difference was that you fought against actual players, not bots.
“Hello… haha.”
“Yeah, I can see you now.”
“Nice to meet you~”
Everyone was exchanging greetings now that they could finally see each other.
‘What? They’re not bots?’
Almond was trying to convince himself that these weren’t bots.
Pop!
[Shy Yeopo has registered a mission!]
[Since it’s a bot match, let’s keep it light with a 20-kill mission~]
Supo-jwa had made an appearance after a long while.
He had set up a mission as if to celebrate Almond’s return.
[20 kills… Since it’s a bot match.]
[200,000 won]
200,000 won.
That was quite a substantial sum for a tutorial mission.
‘10,000 won per kill? Anyway… So it really was bots.’
Almond thought that killing 20 out of 100 wouldn’t be particularly difficult.
Especially since it’s a bot match.
“Thank you, Supo. I’ll give it a try. Since it’s a bot match, I think I can probably succeed without much trouble.”
-Ooh a mission right from the start lol
-Bot match? That’s not right…?
-Survival matches aren’t bot matches lolololol
-The tutorial is just supposed to show tutorial instructions;
Almond had no time to look at the chat.
“Alright then, go down and learn the details!”
Whoosh!
The Coach had kicked me off.
“Whoa whoa whoa?!”
-lololololololol
-lololol omg lol
-Ooh
-His expression lolol
Finally, the survival match ㅠㅠ
-How long has it been since Ril
-I remember that game Almond abandoned like a jerk, Battle Large…
Whoooooosh!
The wind began to strike my face forcefully.
[Pull the string on your back to deploy the magitech hang glider]
Instructions appeared.
Almond literally fumbled around my back searching for the string, and pulled it.
Flap!
The hang glider deployed and I could control my direction.
‘But… Didn’t I choose an Avatar?’
At this point, Almond realized I’d forgotten something quite important.
This was Ril, not Battle Large.
I hadn’t chosen an Avatar.
‘Since it’s a bot match… It’ll work out somehow.’

* * *
[Beginner Tip: The survival match tutorial is actual combat. However, only players with very little experience participate. This reflects the Abyss Administrator’s philosophy that practice should be as intense as real battle.]
