The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 5 Episode 95
30. The Chamber of Truth (2)
Almond was utterly bewildered.
‘What is this atmosphere?’
Regardless of what others might think, he knew exactly what kind of person Choi Sa-rang was.
He had seen her not only as the human Choi Sa-rang he met at the hospital, but also in her role as Commander during the national tournament.
She was the type who consistently dominated people with an authoritative presence.
But who was this person right now?
“Hehe. Goguma, you don’t stream much, do you? You’re quite skilled. Hehe~”
(*Purely from Almond’s perspective.)
The discrepancy from her usual demeanor was striking.
It was like the refined speech of a well-educated noblewoman at a social gathering.
I’d never seen this side of her before.
What was she thinking?
Her acting skills were considerable.
‘No wonder she wasn’t exposed while living as a man.’
She was a woman who had lived as a completely different person for years.
A shift in demeanor like that might be nothing to her.
But what puzzled him was why she had changed her attitude.
‘Is she going for a softer approach?’
If he thought about it simply, that was it.
This wasn’t like the national tournament—it was an event match, so she was coaching more gently.
“Next is Almond.”
His name was mentioned last.
He couldn’t help but anticipate.
‘Will she praise me too?’
In fact, he didn’t think he’d ever received proper praise from Choi Sa-rang before.
Because Almond knew her true identity, he understood exactly how valuable her recognition was.
So his eyes naturally filled with expectation.
But suddenly, a cold wind swept through her previously gentle gaze.
“No comment.”
“?”
She had refused to comment.
There was nothing to say about him.
So no praise, not even feedback.
‘What?’
-kkkkkkkkkkk
-Almond got skipped kkk
-Huh?
-kkkkkkkkk
-Haha
-Why are you killing our character like that!
What? Haha.
acquaintance pass lol
From this point on, Almond sensed something ominous, and sure enough—
“We’ll run three matches with Ttok-cheong as the main order.”
Without any commentary.
Suddenly three matches with Almond as the main order.
‘That’s strange?’
My mind was definitely telling me something was off.
‘Me as the main order.’
But my mouth was grinning widely.
Still, main order though.
Doesn’t that mean I can try everything I’ve been thinking about!?

* * *
At that moment, in the Streamer Garden community.
This community was in a festive mood for the first time since the Cheese Village content.
It was a community that discussed Streamers, and now that tournament practice involving those Streamers had begun, it was only natural.
Moreover, this tournament had Streamers from both platforms participating, making it a perfect opportunity for Viewers with platform pride(?) to become completely absorbed.
When Viewers become overly invested, viewership numbers increase accordingly, but accidents also happen frequently.
Especially during this period, even small sparks tend to ignite into massive flames.
They burn brightly as if about to consume everything, but looking back afterward, most people think: “We made all that fuss over this?”
Perhaps this current issue is no different.
“Seriously… what’s with Sanghyeon and these parachute appointment controversies again.”
Juhyeok scrolls down and laughs in disbelief.
A controversy that follows him everywhere—when he worked at the company, during Dotorimuk’s first collaboration, during Battle Large, and even at the international tournament.
“Wait, isn’t that literally a parachute appointment? lol”
Why does Almond always parachute down? Is it an airborne unit or something? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[Pushing Almond again]
[Nothing left to push so now pushing Ttok-cheong?]
Honestly, Choi Sarang is the one who’s riding on the almond parachute lol
Someone was pushing Almond.
They forced him in.
Some faction was artificially promoting Almond. And so on.
These controversies never ceased.
‘Surely not again this time.’
Almond had become such a massive Streamer that such controversies would be embarrassing.
But whenever an opening appeared, people immediately started attacking him.
And this post was the spark that lit that fuse.
3rd Place) The Knight Order team is just Almond and the kids?
==== ====
Almond brought in an inexperienced Coach who surpassed all those active and former pro coaches to become a Coach.
That person also has a connection with Almond dating back to the international tournament.
And that person is now deciding to make Almond the main order?
How is this any different from inserting a personal acquaintance Coach and engaging in collusion?
==== ====
-For real…
lol that’s so funny haha
That bastard’s so damn smart lol I can’t believe they’d actually push this through
My trust in this completely shattered because of that.
Using this with zero career experience is kind of cringe, not gonna lie lol
└what does sketchy even mean
└yeah the Nut Clan should get their act together ^^
Because of that, it went over to tortilla paprika, damn it.
└seriously what a national loss
“National power lol, is cheese a country?”
“It’s a platform competition right now, not a national one lol”
└is this a conspiracy? nation or what the hell
hahahahahahahahaha
-making someone a Coach just for winning one match seems wrong for real
When a Streamer tournament happens, multiple Streamers work toward a single goal. Friction inevitably arises in this process.
Even if there were no friction between Streamers themselves, Viewers often clung to these issues like this.
Within the Knight Order team, there weren’t only Almond’s Viewers—those supporting Danmuji and Goguma were there too.
From their perspective, putting Choi Sa-rang as Coach, that Coach then telling Ttok-cheong to proceed as main order, and so on.
Everything rubbed them the wrong way.
“Danmuji actually accepted it. Why are you all like this?”
For Juhyeok, who constantly faced controversy, it was time to grow accustomed to it.
But this way of burning bridges among themselves never got easier to accept no matter how many times it happened.
Only his ability to handle it increased.
How to handle this situation?
Obvious.
‘Just stay silent!’
Never react, just stay quiet.
The results would speak for themselves anyway.
Win the game and everyone would accept it; lose and no one would acknowledge it.
That’s always been how the Streamer Almond broke through controversy.
‘But….’
But even Juhyeok felt anxious this time.
He turned his gaze toward the monitor.
‘Why would Almond use Ttok-cheong as the main character?’
Choi Sa-rang didn’t seem to trust Almond’s commanding abilities at all.
And now suddenly he wanted to go with this as the main strategy.
‘This is….’
The quick-witted Juhyeok caught on immediately.
‘Damn. So that’s it?’
Almond had always broken through controversy with results.
He was trying to show the exact opposite.
‘The end of Ttok-cheong…!’
Upon realizing this, Juhyeok sprang to his feet like a defense minister who had just spotted a nuclear missile incoming.
“Come on, come on! Editing team! Let’s head to the conference room for a moment!”
“!?”
Videos prepared in advance like this always yielded significant benefits.
More importantly, if the editors understood this flow, the video would turn out much more entertaining.
Juhyeok entered the conference room first with a grin on his face.
Jia followed closely and whispered.
“Juhyeok. The editing team is only two people right now. What’s with calling a team?”
“Ah. I just wanted to try it….”
“Seriously.”
As Macaron hesitantly entered, Juhyeok cleared his throat and pointed to the table.
“Alright, Team Leader Seo. Take a seat, will you?”
“….”
The meeting needed to proceed quickly.
‘With Choi Sa-rang, it won’t drag on long.’
She had said to run exactly three matches.
There was a high chance it would end swiftly.

* * *
“Deploying!”
All five players descended with their parachutes unfurled.
The Knight Order team.
The expressions of those descending were varied.
Almond, finally taking command, wore a grin from ear to ear, while Danmuji kept his mouth firmly shut, looking resolute.
‘Don’t offer any opinions, she said.’
Just before entering the game.
Choi Sa-rang had pulled Danmuji aside and emphasized it multiple times.
To entrust all decisions to Ttok-cheong.
She said they’d proceed with exactly three rounds like this.
‘Fine… let’s try it. Damn.’
Danmuji questioned why it had to be that way.
But I was curious myself about what caused that skill level that shattered Tottia to pieces.
So for now, I decided to trust her judgment.
All in-game commands would be handled by Almond.
“Check where we should go! Captain!”
Danmuji simply asked Almond.
“This way!”
Almond answered immediately.
Ting!
A ping was marked.
He had a route he’d thought through on his own.
This was naturally quite different from the standard optimal route that Danmuji knew.
‘It’s certainly different.’
Danmuji simply thought that much and just moved according to the orders.
As Danmuji acted that way, the rest of the members stayed quiet too.
The voice communication was definitely much more organized than before.
It was just at the level where Lemon or Gobong occasionally threw in a joke.
Right after landing, a relic chest greeted them.
“Distribute the weapons like this…!”
Almond distributed the weapons smoothly.
Actually, this required no real judgment—it was the exact same distribution as before.
What mattered now was route selection rather than weapon distribution.
The route Almond selected had considerable high points, but it was an approach that didn’t account for failure at all.
If they failed to take down the Red Turtle here, the entire route would collapse.
‘Still, he set it up pretty well considering the shadow positions.’
It was just a difference in temperament; the route didn’t feel unreasonable or anything.
‘He’s surprisingly intelligent.’
Danmuji already knew that.
Almond wasn’t actually bad at thinking—he simply lacked experience from digging deep into the game for a long time.
And his tendencies were far too extreme.
And their tendencies are just too extreme.
“It’s the Turtle. We’ll take it first.”
“But what if another team shows up?”
Hong-cha asked an obvious question.
Taking the Turtle first was incredibly rewarding if successful, but it was usually better to level up a bit before attempting it.
The Turtle’s attack and defense were formidable, causing delays that inevitably invited interference from other teams.
“If we hunt in circles from this position like this, we can actually devour any team that comes.”
Surprisingly, Almond had a very detailed plan for this.
Even Danmuji was shocked seeing it.
Why?
It was far too difficult!
‘This madman. How are we supposed to pull that off!?’
I was amazed he thought Gobong and Lemon could actually follow this.
“…L-let’s try.”
But right now, Ttok-cheong was calling the shots.
We went for it anyway.
And so we went.
The result?
[Team 3 Eliminated!]
Team 3 was eliminated.
Who was Team 3?
The Knight Order.
“Insane!”
“Ahhh!?”
[10th Place]
We’d suddenly dropped to last place.
-lmaooooooooooooooo
This guy’s either dead last or first place, lol
A team with 2 challengers came in last place lol
and lol
That’s crazy lol
A reckless plan lol
Hahaha so funny lol
-but meanwhile only Almond survives for so long
-Almond: why isn’t this working?
-wow i get it but that’s overkill…

* * *
“Pfft…!”
Choi Sa-rang barely held back her laughter.
The results came out exactly as she’d anticipated.
‘Without someone beside him to check his opinions, he becomes this type.’
All of Almond’s plans were built entirely on the foundation of his own execution ability.
The problem was that his execution ability was comparable to her own in her prime.
Especially with a bow in his hands—his ability was dazzling to behold.
Who could possibly keep up with that?
‘He must have been frustrated.’
Every time Almond’s plans worked out perfectly, he probably wondered why the entire team couldn’t move the way he envisioned.
Even in the international tournament, Almond moved as a perfect chess piece.
It was only natural that frustration accumulated inside him bit by bit.
‘Now he’ll understand.’
But now he would come to realize it.
A team exists precisely because not everyone can move that way, and compensating for that is what teamwork means.
A moment later─
The results of three matches came in.
The standings were extremely polarized.
10th place, 1st place, 10th place.
-kkkkkkkkkkkkk
-10th place again kkk
-Ah…
-At least got 1st once so he didn’t completely lose face kkk
-That 1st place was totally forced kkkkkkk
-lol lol lol lol lol
-Wow… terrible
Sseung!
After finishing three matches, the entire Knight Order returned to Dis World.
“I don’t have any particular feedback.”
“…What?”
Two out of three matches were 10th place.
No feedback?
“However, only Almond will enter a one-on-one chat room with me.”
“!?”
Hahahahahahaha
-The rest of you get out
-Gasp
-The rest of the lesson
-Cough kkkkk
-Ugh
“Could you turn off the broadcast for a moment?”
Almond was startled by this request, but the other Streamers were even more confused.
‘Huh?’
‘What is this? Are they dating?’
‘What is this? Are they about to fight?’
‘What is this? Did someone get hit with a bat?’
They each harbored their own suspicions in their minds and quietly waited for the two of them to step away.
