The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 5 Episode 17
6. Attention (2)
[Quadra Kill!]
[Team 5 Eliminated]
In an instant, Almond had annihilated an entire team.
This news echoed throughout every corner of the Abyss.
Naturally, it reached Omelette, the Streamer of Paprika’s faction.
“…What? A Quadra Kill?”
It was already shocking that another team had been crushed.
Someone had achieved a Quadra Kill.
-What the heck
-Huh?
-Whoa
-Lucky big key game
Hahaha, damn it.
“Whoa, calm down. Let’s just chill~ and keep going. You know what I mean.”
Omelette, getting excited by himself and then calming himself down.
“We just crushed a team on our way too. Right? Did you see our skills just now? Our team is seriously stacked, I’m telling you. We can take first place.”
But Omelette was getting excited again just as quickly.
-gang lol so funny haha
Tutorial queue is refreshing lol
Lol, what a loser
-Isn’t it broken stacked?
It wasn’t an unfair assessment.
His team had also achieved a decisive teamfight victory and eliminated another team.
‘Honestly, not quite stacked, but….’
Omelette seemed quite satisfied with his team’s abilities.
For beginners, they weren’t bad at all.
Thus their current level was 4.
“We’re level 4 and we’ll soon have two Contractors. I think I’ll probably be the one contracting last? The protagonist always contracts last.”
Since the Contractor who contracts last gets to contract with the strongest Rune, Omelette was aiming for the final contract.
“Last Samurai, you know what I mean?”
He believed that if he contracted with the best Rune, he could sweep everything by himself.
Of course, he had no idea whatsoever.
That the person who had annihilated one team earlier and the person who had just annihilated another team were the same individual.

* * *
Tap-tap-tap-tap-tap.
Almond sprinted toward the Sanctuary of Resurrection.
“There was a Rune Spirit?”
He blinked at the chat window as if hearing it for the first time.
-lol
-No he threw it all away lmaooo
-It was a Rune Spirit where did it go lmaooo
ㅠㅠㅠ (crying/sobbing sound)
-How could he throw that away;
Almond didn’t have particularly narrow vision.
In fact, his vision was quite good.
But he hadn’t seen it.
“I didn’t see it. Ah… it wasn’t in my field of view—it was displayed on the UI instead?”
From the Rune Spirits’ perspective, it was unfair, but they had never entered Almond’s field of vision in the first place.
They were only displayed on the team UI in the corner of his vision.
“Uh…”
[Baegi] [OUT]
[Tajoal] [OUT]
[Hampunch] [OUT]
[Yoyoyo] [OUT]
Almond tilted his head after checking the UI.
“But it clearly shows they’re all dead?”
-Already dead from the shadow lmao
-They’re dead now you dummy lmao
“Kill them all and be done with it.”
-Already fertile. My lord…
Thanks to that, I hogged all the experience points lol
Excited messages flooded the chat.
Almond felt wronged.
“But the tutorial tips said to resurrect them at the Sanctuary of Resurrection…”
-Lmaooooo
-My teeth are grinding…
-Grit.
-It’s a bot match anyway what does it matter lol
-Just do it
-Backseat gaming Almond lmaooo looks like there’s a lot of Seok refugees
-That’s just how it came out.
“Hmm.”
He’d seen this kind of chat plenty of times on Balloon Gum’s streams.
These are the so-called “toxic backseat gaming” messages.
When a Streamer makes a ridiculous mistake in the game, these people appear, grinding their teeth.
The problem is that their advice is not only all over the place, but often incorrect as well.
I’ve seen how to deal with these types many times on Jello’s stream.
‘The Jello-style aggro shutdown.’
Almond ultimately draws his blade.
“I’m going to ban the weird backseat gaming aggro. Why are you all so worked up over a bot?”
-lmaooooooo
-aggro lol
-haha
-fr ignoring bot matches?
Anyway, it’s just a bot so who cares lolololol
-lolllllllll
-instant draw on
After hearing Almond’s words, Juhyeok swiftly banned them all.
Ding.
[Class Representative donated 10,000 won.]
[Newcomers, why are you giving Almond backseat gaming advice? lol It doesn’t make sense in many ways.]
“Thank you for the 10,000 won, Class Representative. You really know what’s up.”
-fr lol
-Class Rep lol
-Aside from skill, would Almond even listen to backseat gaming in the first place lol
-fr this is disrespecting Almondil’s intellect
-Almond’s reading the compliments lol
-Newcomers need to get in line. This is serious.
Just as the existing viewers were establishing order through donations.
“There’s a monster that looks pretty strong.”
Whoosh.
Almond discovers a massive monster.
[Lv. 7 Abyss Shark]
A full level 7.
Just looking at it, the savage appearance made it clear this was no ordinary thug.
“Can I take it down alone?”
-nope
-impossible
-level’s too low right now
-let’s level up to 6 first
-gotta go to the Sanctuary of Resurrection
I check my experience bar.
[Level 5]
[91%]
It’s higher than most, but still feels a bit low.
For annihilating two entire teams out of ten, the rewards seem underwhelming.
‘For a victory earned through combat, the compensation is rather meager.’
In Battle Large, a similar genre, you could strip your opponent of everything upon their defeat.
That’s why combat there was high risk, high reward.
But this Ril survival match? It merely grants slightly more experience points.
I couldn’t fathom why everyone threw themselves at us so recklessly.
Ding.
[Tutorial Tip donated 10,000 won.]
[If you eliminate an opponent, wait nearby. You can obtain the Runes they were carrying and strengthen your Avatar.]
So it turned out I could acquire the Runes that defeated enemies possessed.
But I’d left them behind.
“Ah, I didn’t loot during that last fight, did I? The shadow came and….”
In the first battle, there was nothing to take, and in the second, I couldn’t loot because the shadow descended upon us immediately after the kill.
That’s why the rewards felt so inadequate.
“So I took a loss there.”
Almond, who donated under the name Tutorial Tip, not only understood the hint perfectly but even provided self-feedback.
-?
-This time he actually accepted it lol
-Wait lol did he actually think it was a real tip? lol
-lmao I fell for it too lol
-Oh it was a donation lol
-What a curveball lol
Feeding nuts mixed into feed to a cow because reading scriptures to it doesn’t work is crazy.
-Now that’s viewer experience
-Newcomers, you seeing this? This is the handiwork of master Almond cultivators
As I was learning about survival matches this way.
[A shadow will descend in 30 seconds.]
Along with this notification came the sound of movement.
‘Hm. Someone’s here.’
Whoosh.
I quickly concealed myself in the nearby brush.
Five enemies.
Team 1 Members.
“It’s an Epic mob. An Epic mob.”
“Yeah. Let’s take it down.”
They exchanged simple orders and advanced toward the Epic monster.
From within the vegetation, I murmured meaningfully.
“They’ve taken the bait.”
-Was it bait?
-Stop pretending to be strategic lol
-What’s the strategy? Almondil
-You lucked into it lmao
-Are we fighting them?
“They’re all level 4.”
They were all level 4.
The only difference was that all five of them were alive, while Almond was just one person.
And the opposing side had two Contractors.
“If I were just level 6, I could manage something. But this is a lot….”
-For real
-Damn
-Just take some hits from Epic and head back to the Sanctuary of Resurrection lol
-It’s impossible when all five are there.
-You know it too.
-But you said it was bait? lol
Non-Contractor Players possessed abilities that couldn’t be ignored, so rashly charging in with a fragile damage-dealer Avatar like Reina was difficult.
Almond, who had played Reina extensively, knew this better than anyone.
“But….”
Even though Almond knew that.
“Aren’t they all bots?”
-?
-…?
-??
-Huh?
I can’t translate this as it appears to be gibberish or corrupted text rather than meaningful Korean language content.
Hahaha, that’s hilarious!
“There’s a 20-kill mission on the line.”
And there was also Supo-jwa’s mission.
[20 kills… since they’re bots.]
[420,000 won]
[8/20]
The 200,000 won bet had skyrocketed to 420,000 won.
Moreover, there was one thing to note about Supo-jwa’s mission.
‘There’s no mention of needing to win, is there?’
In the tutorial, I only needed to rack up 20 kills to complete the mission, regardless of victory.
Which meant it made sense to attempt 20 kills even if it meant risking defeat.
Unaware of Almond’s bloodthirsty gaze, the opposing team began hunting monsters.
“Alright, shall we go?”
“Okay~ Go!”
The Tank Avatar ‘Iron Lump – Bart’ opens the initiative.
Whoooosh!
Bart’s Contractor swings a massive fist forged from heavy iron.
[Flying Punch]
A skill that hurls the fist forward with all of one’s weight behind it.
Incredibly powerful, but if it misses, the weight shifts to one side and the user falls—though that’s irrelevant when facing such a colossal target.
That drawback doesn’t apply here.
Boom!
As long as the hit connects, Bart can regain his footing and immediately launch the next attack.
Thud, boom! Whoosh!
A triple barrage delivered by iron fists.
[Earth Blow]
He even weaves a skill into the final strike.
A skill that slams the ground to launch enemies upward.
“Graaaaahhhhh!”
Of course, an Epic Monster like the Abyss Shark doesn’t get knocked airborne—it merely staggers slightly.
[Health: 89%]
Still, a significant chunk of its health was shaved away.
“Raaaaaahhhhh!”
The Abyss Shark bares its razor-sharp teeth and charges toward Bart.
Swimming through the air, it lunges to tear into Bart in an instant.
Massive fangs pierce Bart’s body with a vicious screech.
Screeeech!
[Iron Body]
Bart assumes a boxing defensive stance and activates a defensive skill to endure the damage.
-Bart’s pretty good for a beginner
-Oh, new character
-This won’t work, man. Let’s just turn back.
“Bart? Lol, he’s a new character and totally a scam.”
Almond glanced at the chat.
‘What is this? A newly released Avatar?’
I’m seeing Bart for the first time.
But it didn’t seem like Reina was unfamiliar with him.
〔Bart… We finally meet on the battlefield.〕
Ah, this is a special dialogue ㅋㅋ
-Yeah
-Oh
Oh right, Bart appears in Lena’s story mode.
What are you talking about, Reina? ㅋㅋ
That was it.
Sharil is one of the Avatars that blocked her escape in Reina’s Story Mode.
It seems that Avatar has been newly released this time.
“…You had something like that?”
Of course, Almond still couldn’t remember.
hahahahahaha
-You killed her though…
“killed brutally”
The perpetrator’s memory is insane.
-Reina’s upset again…
〔You don’t remember this either?〕
Reina’s voice sounds ominous.
It’s like adding insult to injury.
lol
-???: Oppa, where was our first date?
What’s up with your voice lol
The Avatar that appears next is one I recognize.
“Oh. I know that Avatar.”
Twang!
[Sniper – Sharil]
An ADC.
The most commonly used ‘Sniper – Sharil’.
Hong-cha used this Avatar extremely frequently in the Nant match, so I was familiar with it.
〔What?〕
Reina lets out a scoff of disbelief.
I’m dying laughing ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-This is bad, man…
Of all things, a female character lol
-Give back the lips! You thief! Give back the lips! You thief! Give back the lips! You thief!
-Do you remember other women?
I can’t translate this as it appears to be incomplete or corrupted Korean text. “-ㅁㅊ” consists only of final consonants without a complete syllable structure, making it impossible to produce a meaningful translation.
-Reina is alive…
-Is this… AI?
Almond was too focused on the current situation to hear Reina’s reaction clearly.
‘How do I make this a surprise attack?’
My attention was fixed on the enemy ADC.
In any teamfight, if you eliminate the ADC first, the win rate skyrockets dramatically.
‘One of the two Contractors is the ADC….’
Moreover, they’re a Contractor.
If I kill that ADC, perhaps a path might open.
I was considering such a reckless angle in a 5 versus 1 fight.
“Hit level 6 and… grab the Rune box.”
He muttered this to himself.
-?
-…?
-?
-Huh?
Twang.
Almond drew his bowstring and charged forward.
-He’s really going?
Alone??ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
No, haha
-Going in to die~
This is a 5-player game, oh my, sir.
-It’s fine. They’re bots anyway…
Even if I was hunting Epic Monsters, how could I possibly flank them alone like this?
The viewers who knew these weren’t actually bots couldn’t help but feel anxious.
