The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 5 Episode 49
16. The Enemy Within (2)
The Demian Association.
A gathering formed after the name of the weapon ‘Damian,’ which Reina uses as her primary armament.
Most people have no idea why they chose to name themselves after Reina’s weapon in the first place.
Visit the Demian Association community, and you’ll find the answer quickly enough.
[It’s because Damian is Reina’s one true love~]
[We were all Damian…]
[Damian is essentially Reina’s guardian]
The reason Damian became the association’s name was that it was never merely Reina’s weapon—it was her first love.
Actually, Reina named her weapon after her first love in the first place.
In fact, in Reina’s story mode, players can play as Damian themselves.
They all became Damian and sacrificed everything to save Reina.
So there’s no name more fitting for the ‘Demian Association’ Reina fan club than this.
However—
Ding!
[‘Almond’ is a forbidden word.]
On the other hand, certain names were permanently banned from mention.
‘What?’
Jello was trying to ask the Demian Association something after a long while.
[‘Aamond’ is a forbidden word.]
[‘Almondil’ is a forbidden word.]
[‘Sang-hyun Yu’ is a forbidden word.]
[‘Alm0nd’ is a forbidden word…]
“These crazy diligent bastards….”
All mentions of Almond were thoroughly blocked.
What’s even more ridiculous is this.
Ding!
[‘3-Star Clear’ is a forbidden word.]
3-Star Clear was forbidden to mention.
Were these really Reina fans?
Jello gave up writing in exasperation.
“Wait, there’s literally no way to clear 3-Star except through Almond’s guide?”
The only way to see a 3-Star strategy was to reference Almond’s streams.
hahahahaha lol
No, that’s hilarious right now lol
-The Demian Association is seriously impressive
-Wow
-Banning even 3-Star Clear is kinda scary…
Boom!
[Ani donated 10,000 won.]
“If Reina’s 3-star clear isn’t mentioned, what are they saying!? Are they saying they’ll do Reina or not!?ㅋㅋㅋ”
“Viewers, you’re misunderstanding. These guys actually don’t even play Reina.”
hahahaha for real
What’s up??
What the heck then lol
-That’s legendary, for real
“It’s….”
Jello rambles on.
Jello tells the story of when he once worked with the Demian Association.
lol
-Legend legend… Life is legend….
-It’s the Abyss
Grandmother telling us horror folk tales ㄷㄷ
-Why is the shadow of the Abyss here?
Jello’s viewers gasp as they learn about the Demian Association.
Boom!
[Curious donated 10,000 won.]
[If I post a kiss scene photo of Reina here, would I get assassinated?]
Hahahahahahaha
I’m dying laughing
-Probably wouldn’t kill you?
That’s already an image ban lol
To avoid going deeper into the Demian Association, Jello waves his hand dismissively.
“Uh, uh-huh! Anyway, let’s just forget about the 3-star clear strategy. When it comes to Reina, isn’t it all about pure skill anyway? What man watches the story while gaming!? Where do you find a guy who cares about the story!?”
Jello decides to just attempt Reina ranked play.
“I’ll just learn by diving in.”
-Kyaa
-Keu
Yeah right lol, who’s sending those stories anyway~
-That’s it~
-Let’s go~~
It was quite a bold choice.
But every bold choice comes with responsibility.
Jello’s Reina challenge turned out to be exactly what a ‘challenge’ should be.
〔You’re supposed to shoot the target. Can’t you see the blue?〕
〔What was that dodge just now?〕
“I… that’s, that’s not it.”
Hahahaha
No, Hwashin is giving Guback a hard time lol
-Auto backseat gaming lol
This was merely the beginning.
〔Contractor. You’d suit being a target more than wielding a bow. Think it over.〕
〔Can’t see ahead? I recommend contracting with the Monk. I’m saying this for your sake.〕
〔What about contracting with the Bard? Your bow would probably work better as a harp anyway.〕
Reina’s harsh remarks grew increasingly cutting.
No matter how hard Jello tried, it was similar.
“W-well, this, this is Reina’s charm, right? Haha… ha…”
In Jello’s awkward smile, I could sense the demeanor of a new employee.
Hahahahahahaha
-Sad but true lol
-It’s tasty though~
Haha, it’s pretty spicy.
-Deliciously spicy, I’m really enjoying it so far
ㅋㅋㅋㅋ (lol/haha)
-The delinquent girl is actually great
-In our industry, that’s a compliment?
What is this ㅠㅠ
Jello still wasn’t incompetent at streaming.
I didn’t know the gap would feel this wide.
The CEO’s pick wasn’t made without reason.
Ding.
[FactBomb donated 5,000 won.]
[Looks more like he’s about to spit rather than kiss?]
Hahahahahahaha
Hahaha, for real
-That would definitely be faster
-Looks like he’s about to get hit
-Jello, that’s intentional buildup, read the room
“Ah, hey, quiet down a bit! I’m trying to focus!”
Did my old skills still remain after all?
Focusing and approaching it seriously, I heard remarks like this.
〔I thought you were a microorganism. Turns out you’re at least a bug.〕
The evaluation was gradually climbing.
“D-did you hear that!? Everyone!? A bug! We’ve reached bug tier now!”
-Bug tier lol
-B-being called a bug is praise?
A total loser getting played by a school bully ㅠㅠ
Hahahaha, this is hilarious!
-Usually when you reach bug tier, isn’t that the abyss? lol
-How far does this honor deflation go…
As if she’d heard Jello’s words, Reina murmured to herself.
〔Ugh, I hate this. Seriously.〕
-?
-??
ㅋㅋㅋㅋ (lol/haha)
-That’s actually her original line lol
-Is she even alive?
-Nah lol
-There’s definitely someone behind her
Hahahahaha, that’s hilarious hahaha
“No, that’s actually her original line, everyone.”
Jello was in such a good mood that he didn’t want to ruin it, and he wanted to ride this momentum to perform even better.
But he didn’t know.
“Alright, I can see the enemies over there now. Let’s charge in~!”
Who his opponent really was.
He couldn’t have imagined it.
“Jello’s enforcer Reina!? There’s no stopping this!”
hahahahahaha
Hahahahaha
lol that’s hilarious
-Her personality’s unstoppable lol
-Enforcer Reina lmao

* * *
Reina’s third arrow struck home.
Boom!
[Mana Burst]
“Ah, ahhh! Move! I’m dying!”
Whoosh!
The blue flames of the mana burst erupted, and Bontovi screamed.
Once an assassin starts taking hits, there’s no saving them.
Someone else needs to take the damage instead.
“Arrows coming from over there! Over there!”
But Balloon Gum didn’t hear Bontovi’s screams.
He only looked at the direction of the arrows.
‘Reina?’
Almond’s eyes widened, and he immediately stopped giving orders.
The one who responded fastest was Master-tier Letmi.
“She’s a Contractor! It looks like Reina, so I can just contract with her first—”
She was about to reluctantly transform into the tank they so desperately wanted.
But then—
Snap!
Almond raised his hand.
“No. Protect the Rune Box!”
“…What!?”
What was the point of protecting the Rune Box anyway?
She couldn’t understand.
Why not just contract with her?
The absurd part was that only Letmi was bewildered by this.
“Yes, yes!”
Chocosong and Balloon Gum moved in response to such a ridiculous order.
‘What is this insane discipline?’
They retreated backward and aligned their formation toward the Rune Box.
Only Bontovi, who was pushed to the front by Balloon Gum’s shield, couldn’t do the same.
Kaboom!
Another mana burst exploded on his body, and his health was nearly depleted.
“Heal, heal—”
Chocosong frantically waved her hands, searching urgently for a healing spell.
“Why can’t I see it when I need it!?”
Hahahahaha
Haha, I can’t do that…
The cane is difficult, as usual ㅠ
-That’s because the opponent isn’t a monster^^
At that moment, Almond beside me draws the bowstring and shouts.
“Don’t heal! Attack!”
“Huh?”
Ding.
A Fireball spell materializes just in time.
“Okayyy~!”
Chocosong immediately launches it toward where the enemies are clustered.
-Love the explosion!
-That’s the way~
-She’s got that fire in her eyes when you tell her to blow things up lol
I can’t provide a reliable translation for this text. The characters “-촠파광 ㄷㄷ” don’t form standard Korean words, and “ㄷㄷ” appears to be Korean consonants used as an emoticon or slang expression rather than actual words.
As a master of explosive attacks, her expertise in landing area-of-effect damage on multiple targets was considerable.
Boom!
Nearly four enemies took the Fireball attack and suffered damage.
“Push in! This is all bluff!”
But instead of retreating, they burst forward even more aggressively, focusing fire on Bontovi.
They thought they had seized victory.
“Finish them! They’re all dead!”
“Wahhh!”
A player from the enemy team wielding a gun delivered the final shot.
Bang!
[An ally has fallen!]
[Totototo → Bontovi]
“Ah, no, what on earth…”
Letmi couldn’t comprehend it.
If it were just a game, if they were just teammates, she might have unleashed a stream of curses right then.
I can’t laugh my ass off haha
-What is this?
-Seriously.
lol
-Terrible call
-Quite the intelligent young man, everyone.
Even though Letmi seemed quiet, she had quite the temper when gaming.
Or rather, there were times she became far more explosive than others.
There was no way she could have reached Master tier otherwise.
But—
‘Ugh… damn it! These are major streamer corporations, so I can’t say anything!’
Letmi was a streamer before she was a gamer.
It was essentially the same as a new employee cursing out a department manager.
She was simply following orders for now.
It looked like an incredibly stupid order, but I held back my frustration.
If I carelessly spoke my mind here, I’d fall straight into the Abyss.
-What a dumb order lol
How am I supposed to put up with this? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-This is kinda….
-Isn’t this basically asking to die?
-So that’s why they call you Almondil~ Almondil~
I’m about to explode from this lol
Should I curse along just because the viewers are cursing?
The moment it gets edited into a short or clip and circulates across all the video platforms.
These bastards would all flip their stance and bury me alive with talk like “Still, that’s not proper etiquette between industry professionals.”
Meanwhile, the team was slowly entering the Abyss.
“Ugh, ugghhh!?”
Pwoosh!
Balloon Gum’s shield bursts apart.
Letmi covers however she can.
She swings her club at the clinging Enemy Tank and pushes them back.
[Smash!]
[You swing with great force, knocking back the enemies.]
Bang!
In that brief moment as the enemies are pushed back.
“H-hey, Almond!?”
I call out to Almond with as much respect as I can muster.
“I… shouldn’t I be the one to contract this… isn’t that r-right!? Or….”
Almond doesn’t answer.
‘Where the hell did he go?’
I don’t even know where he went.
Boom!
[An ally has been defeated!]
[Jello → Balloon Gum]
Another death in the meantime.
Civil M’s Balloon Gum and the real Balloon Gum both died side by side.
“Ah, ahhhhh! Damn it all!”
Letmi rushes forward and reaches for the Rune box.
‘Huh?’
The Rune box was empty.
‘What?’
Crash!
Then a beam of light shot down from somewhere.
It was Almond.
Behind him, the silhouette of a man with silver hair wielding a short blade flickered briefly before vanishing.
‘A contract?’
Almond had gone ahead and formed a contract.
-Gasp
-wtf
-He contracted himself lol
-Shouldn’t the tank go first?
-Seriously
-If you were gonna do it, why not sooner?
Almond had originally intended to contract with Reina.
But Reina was on the opposing side.
Then who did he contract with?
Why a blade instead of a bow?
Letmi muttered without thinking.
She had just remembered what that silhouette was.
“That… the Rubisword.”
Crack—
Almond’s form disappeared.
Had he rushed toward the enemy?
“No, this can’t be! The Rubisword’s level…!”
Letmi despaired.
The Rubisword only becomes viable from level 6 onward.
This wasn’t a metaphor. Before that, it’s genuinely trash.
But Almond’s level was 4.
What was he thinking, pulling something like that now?
And yet—
[Enemy defeated!]
[Reckless Warrior → Totototo]
Whoosh!
As if mocking her expectations, an enemy vanished in an instant.
-wtf
-What?
-How did he assassinate with the Rubisword??
-Seriously
-What is this
-Wow
‘Whatever, it worked.’
Letmi shouted.
“I’m going in too! Chocosong, revive her!”
“Huh? M-Me alone!?”
“So who else is here!?”
Letmi swung her blunt weapon toward the enemy tank.
Thwack!
The shield warped.
“Euk!”
Whoosh!
The enemy with shield and spear rushed toward Letmi.
Letmi gracefully swung her blunt weapon, batting them away.
Ting!
-Ooh
-Kya
-Now that’s it
-Yesss~
[Bontovi has been revived!]
In the meantime, Chocosong had brought Bontovi back to life.
“Wow, uh, thank you. Choco. I’m ready now… to fight…”
Bontovi looked bewildered.
His hands flailed through empty air, searching for something to hold.
‘Huh?’
He couldn’t fight.
“Why are you just standing there!? Join the fight quickly!”
Letmi shrieked.
“I don’t have a weapon! My… my Fast Dagger Rush!?”
Bontovi’s weapon had been stolen.
“No way.”
Letmi finally understood.
That person fighting Reina over there.
I’d wondered how they managed to wield a bow while contracting with the Rubisword.
“Did you really make us wait just to steal that!?”
-Huh
-Oof
-Seriously
-No way lol
-Is that even human lmao
