The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 5 Episode 107
33. Still, the Mind Works (5)
First of all, King Gul hadn’t received any briefing about the content.
‘What is this… I just came to laugh and chat, didn’t I?’
Providing feedback on Almond’s gameplay?
This was certainly the kind of content where laughing and chatting would be enough.
But the problem was King Gul’s profession.
Before being a streamer or creator, his main job was as an official analyst for Reel Champs.
Compared to other streamers, it was difficult for him to spout nonsense.
‘What is he asking me to do about that match?’
These games that Almond was showing with his ‘Almond-style order’ couldn’t be covered with anything but nonsense.
Then there was only one option left.
‘He wants me to curse him out?’
He was asking me to curse him out.
If King Gul, who didn’t have any particularly close relationship with Almond, started cursing, there would be problems.
“Um, let’s just watch first? Would it be okay if I skip through and take a look?”
“Sure.”
Tap tap tap.
King Gul manipulates the keyboard.
The teammates rushing with the safe and Almond urging them on are grating on his nerves.
“Is there a reason you’re insisting on the safe?”
“The safe is much more efficient. From what I can see, anyway.”
Almond explains.
“Hmm…”
It’s not convincing, but I’ll move on for now.
Almond suddenly says something without being asked.
“Oh, and I don’t really understand why the tank has to contract first. Since it’s just a meat shield anyway, it seems more efficient to just start contracting the ADC incarnation.”
Statements that defy all common sense.
“Ugh…”
King Gul’s face grows redder by the moment.
-Oof…
-This is insane kkkkk
-He’s just dropping gems kkk
-Is he doing this on purpose? kkkkkkk
-He’s definitely doing it on purpose kkk
-King Gul is getting scratched up kkk
King Gul pauses, licking his lips as if enduring, and stares up at the ceiling.
“Um… well… I understand what you’re saying…”
Almond presses further.
“If you understand what I’m saying, then my words are right, aren’t they?”
“Huh?”
“I’ve been feeling frustrated. There’s nowhere to say it… Survival matches don’t even have that long of a history, yet there are so many pointless rules and traditions…”
-Kekekekekekekekekekeke
-This bastard totally planned this kkkkk
-He brought him here to provoke him lol
-Aren’t these the lines that come up when you search “how to provoke survival match veterans” on ChatGPT? kkk
King Gul’s face was visibly changing color in real time.

* * *
Juhyeok, watching this on his monitor, swallowed dryly.
‘Twelve sentences to provoke survival match veterans.’
It was a script I’d carefully selected with Juhyeok.
Because of the fundamental structure of this content.
‘The content only works when King Gul gets riled up.’
The person giving feedback had to speak without hesitation.
But King Gul had no prior connection with Almond.
No matter how much of a streamer he was, he couldn’t be harsh with someone he didn’t know.
I needed to set the stage well to raise his energy.
The easiest way was to actually irritate him bit by bit.
‘He’s good at that, though.’
Since his Aseng days, he’d been a master at getting under people’s skin.
The problem was that it wasn’t something he did of his own volition.
‘A Naruto with the power of a tail beast…’
Incredible power, but not something he could control at will.
‘Can he master the chakra?’
Can he draw out the opponent’s energy?
This would be the crux of this content.

* * *
“…Even the routes have become so standardized that I’m not sure if we’re playing the game for the sake of agreements, or making agreements for the sake of the game….”
After venting various complaints for a while.
“Ahem….”
King Gul deliberately steadied his breathing.
Almond smirked and delivered the final blow.
“…So, this mode is kind of like an old fogey, wouldn’t you say?”
“!”
King Gul’s eyes widened.
The bloodshot veins were so visible they showed up clearly on camera.
Old fogey~ old fogey~ old fogey~
Almond’s words kept echoing in King Gul’s ears.
His neck was starting to itch.
It was a phenomenon that appeared when he had too much to say.
Haha, f*** it lol
Sasuga, the devil of interviews lol
Lol what a boomer
That old-fashioned guy is creepy.
-Kya
That’s so creepy.
-Eloquent
Why is he becoming a demon while he’s doing the interview lol
Looks like you planned this, didn’t you? lol
“So I’m right─”
Then King Gul remembered.
The sentence written in the recruitment message.
「Please show us everything about King Gul」
Why they had written that.
He finally understood.
Bang!
King Gul slammed the desk and shouted.
“It’s all wrong!”
-Gasp
lol
-Startled
That’s insane.
-Gasp
“It’s all wrong!”
“Eh…?”
“It’s all wrong! Completely wrong!”
-Kekekekekekekekekekekekeke
-Kekekekekekekekekekeke
-Kkk
King Penguin Kang Shin-ki is crazy
Wow, that’s hilarious!
Massive explosion lol
“Everything’s wrong? Why?”
Almond’s eyes gleamed with intensity.
King Gul saw that gaze and understood immediately.
This was a plea to go all out.
But─
“Sigh… I can’t.”
He waved his hand dismissively.
“Pardon?”
Declaration of surrender lol
“Crazy 15 surrender, what’s going on lolololol”
First-ever 15-minute special lecture lolololol
“I… to give you feedback on this… I’m not enough.”
“…Then what?”
It wasn’t that he truly couldn’t do it.
Something was needed.
Something that could truly set him free!
“King God Gul must come.”
“King… God… Gul?”
King God Gul.
King Gul’s player-era nickname was “Tangerine.”
But when he played well, he became King Gul, and when he made legendary carries, he became King God Gul.
In other words, a legend long since retired.
“What is that?”
“There’s someone like that. Someone who plays Ril really well.”
“How could he come right now?”
King Gul answered brazenly.
“Through possession, of course.”
He would use the Possession technique.
-?
-?
-Kang Shin-ki? lol
Wow, that’s hilarious lol
Damn, I hit rap 6 lol lol lol
“If I may ask, would it be alright to use it?”
“Huh? Yes.”
Sseung.
King Gul suddenly closes his eyes.
He remains silent in that state.
“Hmm?”
Almond tilts his head in confusion and tries to wave his hand.
“Whoa!”
Thwack.
King Gul raises his hand as if to block Almond’s words.
“!?”
Almond is genuinely startled and takes a step back.
-??
-?
-…?
-What the heck kkk
-Is he a sage? kkk
King Gul shakes his head violently.
Like a madman.
“There’s no need to even watch this match!”
This is his way of signaling something.
‘I’m not King Gul!’
Don’t send me to Narag.
“…?”
Almond becomes slightly flustered.
He asks carefully.
“Why is there no need to watch…?”
There must be some reason why there’s no need to watch.
“That’s because…!”
King Gul suddenly grabs the paper in front of him and swings it.
“You….”
Smack!
He hits Almond’s head with it.
“You! You’re a foolish youth!”
“???”
-Kekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekek
-Kekekekeke
-What the heck kkk
-Absolute chaos kkk
-Biiiiisaaaaaang!
-Almond’s expression kkk
Almond clutches his head in bewilderment.
There was no physical blow, but there was a mental one.
‘Is this… King Gul?’
I’d called King Gul expecting harsh feedback. I never thought I’d actually get hit.
‘How is this possible? Did that actually land?’
King Gul had only meant to swing broadly anyway.
But Almond had bowed his head lower than expected and taken the hit.
‘But it’s too late now. Keep going. More.’
King Gul lifts his nose proudly and closes his eyes.
“All your problems right now!”
King Gul taps Almond’s head with the script.
Thunk! Thunk!
As if hitting was simply the natural thing to do.
Keep hitting!
Keep going!
“They’re coming from right here! Right here!”
-Dude, he’s drumming on him kekeke
-Ahahahahaha
-So satisfying kekekekeke
-My chest feels so light kekekeke
-Haha
-Nut Shake got caught kekeke
“Ah. I know that too…”
“Shut up!”
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat!
-Kekekekekekeke
-That’s faster than Whiplash?
-Kekekekekeke
-That’s true
-Haha drum rapid-fire
-Kekekekeshut upkekeke
-For real…
-Isn’t he crazy?kekeke
-Shut upppppkekeke
-Biiiiing!
“Hey, you fool! Do you want to know where your fate diverged!? Huh!?”
“…Yes, yes!”
Almond nodded.
“Do you want to know?”
“Yes…”
“But I’m not good at explaining!”
“??”
“Then wait a moment….”
King Gul cleared his throat again and muttered.
“Ahem. Phew… I used Kang-sin’s power a bit, and it’s intense.”
He suddenly returned to normal and explained.
“That’s where it starts from, right?”
What he pointed to was the 0-second mark of the video.
The problem was from the very start of the game.
-Is King Gul doing the explanation? Kekekeke
-King God Gul done? Kekekeke
-What is it? Kekekeke
Haha, seriously
-All that violence just now was King God Gul~ He’s not related to King Gul~
-He really seems like a crazy person
“This was a match where Almond took the order, right?”
“Yes.”
“Let’s look at it step by step. Why did you choose this as your landing point?”
“Uh….”
“Right. It seemed like you weren’t thinking at all.”
-Kekekekeke Is this not the same person as before?
-Sir, you’re King Gul right now?
-No thought Kekekeke
“As for survival matches. You’re given the map first, right? At that time, you need to observe as carefully as possible.”
Sseung.
King Gul zoomed in on the map section and showed it.
“This map only maintains the same concept. It’s not the same every day. Almond.”
“Huh? It, it does? It changes?”
“….”
“I just thought I couldn’t memorize it.”
“What?”
King Gul closed his eyes again.
“I need to use Kang-sin again… Ah, it’s on cooldown.”
It seemed difficult to use it again.
He was getting up there in age.
-Kekekekekekekeke
-Kekekekeke Right back to being dumb Kekekeke
-How many times is he getting scratched? Kekeke
Since he didn’t know anything, it was difficult to explain.
Then a certain photograph caught King Gul’s eye.
“Wait, hold on. Almond, now that I think about it, there’s a photo of the international tournament hanging over there?”
“Oh. Yes.”
“But why don’t you know this?!”
“?!”
King Gul suddenly whipped his head around, shouting.
-He’s startled kkkkk
-Is he crazy or what kkkkkk
-kkkkkkkkkk
-kkkkk Insane energy kkk
“I’m saying, you played Civil Empire! So why doesn’t it have the random map concept?!”
The more King Gul got worked up, the bigger his head seemed to grow, while Almond shrank proportionally.
“W-what does that have to do with anything…”
“In Civil M too, the maps only had a concept! The details were random! Resources, main base locations—everything only had a general flow, right?”
“Huh?”
The foolish youth lifted his head again.
Now he got it.
“Oh, that’s what this is!”
Once King Gul explained it using the familiar Civil Empire as an analogy, he understood immediately.
“Wow. I really get it now. Teacher.”
At some point, Almond started calling him teacher.
-kkkkkkkkkkkk
-kkkkkk Cute kk
-Teacher kk
-That’s the scariest word
-King Gul teaches well though
-He called him well kkk
When Almond called King Gul over, he had one thought in mind.
That the analysts had excellent explanation skills.
He called him over based on this one thing alone.
And it turned out to be a brilliant decision.
“You… understand now?”
“Yes.”
“Then I’ll give you a quiz.”
Of course, a good teacher never trusts their student.
“When the survival match starts, when you’re in the airplane, what should you do?”
“Um… Check the parachute?”
-?
-??
-kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
-kkkkk
-Seriously, lmao
-Playing with Balloon Gum and all…
-Seriously lmao is this really a parachute drop? Lol
“Ahhhhhhhhh!”
Almond looked puzzled.
“Are you King God Gul right now? Or King Gul?”
“N-no comment.”
-Lmaooooooooooo
-Lmaooooooo
-Lmaooooo there’s no difference lol
-Seriously lmao
“Now, Almond. See? I said the map was random earlier, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then shouldn’t you be analyzing it?”
“Oh.”
“What are you doing on the airship? Snacking on some dried squid? You can’t do that. Especially for beginners, there’s a map right here, see?”
Now that I mentioned it, there was indeed a map spread out inside the airship.
Chess-like pieces were placed on it, and various notes were written all over it.
I thought it was just set dressing.
“It was a real map?”
“Yes. It’s much easier to use this. Better than looking at a tiny minimap.”
“Oh…!”
-Wow I didn’t know that either lol
-For real???
-Huh?
-Wow such a pro tip lol
“First look at this map. Then picture it in your head. How would you do it? Try narrating it like a scenario. This is the second quiz.”
“Ah… ahem.”
Almond studied the map and muttered to himself.
“Hmm~ Should I crack open the vault this round? It’s pretty far away so I won’t get intercepted, right?”
Thwack!
“That, that cursed vault!”
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Almond took another barrage of script hits.
-Lmaooo
-Ttok-cheong combo lol
-Seriously lmaooooooooooooo
-Lmaooo spasm lol
-Let’s make some fake commander content
-Ugh my speaker’s blown out lol
-King Gul, your throat’s gonna give out kekekeke
The safe is a seizure button lol
-Almond really loves this kekekeke
-What’s cost-effectiveness kekeke
“I only said it once…”
“In Ril, a single mistake leads to death. Almond.”
-To death kekekeke
-Ah, this is refreshing. This is real content
“Still, my head is spinning” <<< Real talk, it's actually spinning lol
.
.
.
Meanwhile, in a grand mansion, in a certain room.
A woman was furiously typing away at her keyboard.
Tap tap tap tap tap…
-So satisfying~ kekekeke Scold him more, King Gul
It was Choi Sa-rang.
