The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 2 Episode 32
11. Juhyeok Kim’s Moment of Glory (1)
The post that appeared on Ollined wasn’t about me.
If I had to be precise, it did appear because of me.
But it was about Department Manager Park.
Moreover, it was an exposé of his abuse of power.
==== ====
Exposing Department Manager Park’s abuse of power: replacing the disabled quota system that Sang-hyun Yu mentioned with nepotistic appointments.
Sang-hyun Yu might think he made his own choice. But the Department Manager knew he had no choice but to make that decision.
He exploited that knowledge and even calculated how to screw over anyone who displeased him.
And that’s not all—he spreads corruption throughout the company in countless ways….
==== ====
“…!?”
“!”
Just by reading the comments on the Ollined post, I could easily infer public sentiment.
-Department Manager Park is famous lol
-I know who spread this tea lol
-That person really lol
-You never know where things can go wrong in life.
-Disrespected the disabled quota system and now it’s coming back to bite him
Sanghyeon and Juhyeok knew better than anyone that internet rumors couldn’t be trusted.
Juhyeok had even personally witnessed how rumors he created spread.
“…This is real.”
But the post about Department Manager Park that appeared now was genuine.
Juhyeok already knew all these facts.
It was just a matter of a few additional details he hadn’t known about.
Nearly eighty percent of the exposé was based on fact.
“But who wrote this?”
Juhyeok stroked his chin. There were quite a few facts written that even a manager-level employee wouldn’t know.
Then it couldn’t have been his peers.
Juhyeok continued scrolling and nodding his head, then reached a conclusion.
“It’s Sang-hun Shin.”
He pinpointed Team Manager Shin Sang-hun with such certainty that I was startled and asked.
“Team Manager Shin?”
“Yeah.”
“How did you figure that out?”
“First, there are too many facts that only someone with his level of seniority would know. This was written by someone with at least ten years of experience.”
“But there are quite a few people with ten years of experience…”
“Of course there are plenty of ten-year employees. But there aren’t many ten-year employees who would expose Department Manager Park. You don’t keep in touch with company people much, so you wouldn’t know. But I still hear things these days.”
“What kind of things…?”
“I heard the conflict between the two of them got worse. Sang-hun Shin apparently confronted the Department Manager about it. He told you to get out.”
My eyes widened.
Sang-hun Shin had always treated me like dead weight too.
But it seemed he hadn’t wanted me to actually disappear.
“You know as well as I do, but that restructuring isn’t actually decided by the Department Manager.”
I knew it too. Department Manager Park didn’t have that kind of authority. I could have held on if I’d wanted to.
But I simply didn’t want to hold on anymore. The Department Manager already wanted me gone, and eighty percent of the company people hated me, calling me a parachute hire.
My Grandmother, the only reason I had to endure such a place, had already passed away a year ago.
For me, it would have been more comfortable to leave and do manual labor.
“Ultimately, Department Manager Park unilaterally pushed you out. That’s apparently what caused the conflict. Our team has quite a lot of work, you know.”
From what I gathered, Department Manager Park had assigned work to Team Manager Shin in a strange way.
It’s a common occurrence.
Among the many reasons why talking back to a superior makes company life exhausting, this would be the most gentlemanly one.
Besides this, a superior at the Department Manager level has many things they can do to subordinate employees.
“After that, this team works overtime every day. He always approves documents last. And unapproved documents are given every Friday night, so now they just wait for it on their own.”
Thus, beyond simply dumping bad work, they can make it nearly impossible to do the work itself.
Sometimes these actions even cause direct damage to the company. But Department Manager Park is clever enough to prevent things from escalating that far.
He’s quite a sharp operator in this regard.
Of course, he probably never anticipated this situation.
How could he have known that my honest interview would become an arrow that pierced him?
“I really did shoot it out there…”
I muttered, recalling my old feelings.
What if I shot it out? Something I’d only thought about actually came true.
“Huh? What did you shoot?”
“Nothing. Never mind.”
“Hey, the comments are pretty vicious anyway.”
-That old-fashioned Department Manager Park hitting on female employees is so annoying
Now it’s finally coming out lol what a piece of trash forcing employees to go to corporate entertainment events.
-It’s really sad that we have to wait for the right timing and public opinion to expose people like this…
Honestly, Juhyeok and I don’t know what the comments are saying.
We only know the content of the post.
These are comments people wrote when they thought it was the right moment to curse, so there’s definitely false content mixed in.
Is Department Manager Park feeling wronged?
Or does he regret it?
I didn’t bother to empathize.
Department Manager Park’s specialty was sowing discord with subtle lies and driving people out.
Even if those comments were false, he’s simply receiving back what he gave.
This is clear cause and effect.
Regardless of the facts, even these aftershocks have been added to the weight Department Manager Park must bear.
“I didn’t intend for it to happen. But things got bigger.”
*Smack.*
I tore my eyes away from the screen.
I only wanted to clarify that it wasn’t nepotism.
“There’s nothing I can do about it.”
It wasn’t my responsibility.
I stopped paying attention to what was happening at Asung. I didn’t want to think about it. That said, I didn’t wish for the place to collapse either.
The company was a place of bittersweet feelings for me.
I met noble souls like Juhyeok there, but I also had to endure thugs like Department Manager Park.
It was neither a place I could purely hate nor one worthy of nostalgic beautification.
If only I could hate it outright. Unlike in comics, reality doesn’t offer such convenient villains.
A place that feels both refreshing and lonely once you leave it.
Probably that’s what a company is for most office workers.
But then…
Kiki-kiki-kik.
A sound came from beside me—laughter barely being held back.
“Hey. Why are you worrying about it? Huh? That feels so refreshing~!”
Juhyeok finally burst into hearty laughter and slapped my back with a loud smack.
I couldn’t help but laugh along with him.
Yeah. You’re right—it does feel a bit refreshing.
In many ways.

* * *
3 PM.
Regardless of what commotion was unfolding inside Asung.
[Almond has started streaming!]
Almond’s broadcast had begun.
-dgdgdgdg
-Reina’s shameless enough to start broadcasting too
-haha
Wow! I thought I’d die from a whole year hiatus ㅠㅠ
-Can I breathe now!? *gasp* *gasp*!
After turning on a broadcast for the first time in a while, the viewers’ greetings had grown even rougher.
[CEO Dehaep donated 4,000 won.]
[Sang-hyun Yu. I let it slide once. But twice is a declaration of war.]
That’s creepy/scary that they’re mentioning real names.
Hahahahaha, this is hilarious!
haha “Yoo Sang-hyun” is so funny haha
It seemed the impact of Ran’s story mode being uploaded to AllTube was quite significant.
Since Ran’s story mode hadn’t had many live viewers, the reactions were only coming in after the AllTube upload.
[Reina Lip Police donated 10,000 won!]
[You’re now Reina Lip Robber.]
-Reina Lip Robber lol
-Reina Lip Robber! Reina Lip Robber!
-Lip Police lololol
-Strong belief that they’ll live up to their username!
[Reina Lip Lawyer donated 10,000 won!]
[Ah, you Face ID-less plebs should shut it~~~]
-lololol Reina Lip Lawyer has arrived
-If you’re mad, get yourself a Face ID and come back lol
-A lawyer, a police officer, and a robber… Is this a courthouse? lololol
-Now if a prosecutor and judge show up, we’ll have a complete district court lololol
-Come on, Reina Lip Judge, make your appearance!
[Reina Lip Judge donated 10,000 won!]
[The defendant, having possessed the password to Reina’s lips for approximately 28 years, is recognized as the original owner of said lips, making it difficult to classify as robbery. Bang bang!]
-Ah, so Almond was the Native American and the data cooperators were Columbus~~~
-Reina Lip native speaker lol
-No mention of Zombie School at all lololol
Faced with the endless stream of donations, Almond wrapped things up like this.
“Ah. Everyone. Thank you for all the donations.”
-Donation reaction lumped together as “everyone” lol
-Donating at times like this is a total loss lol
-Lol
-At least the disaster of Kingdom Bird Extreme Hate becoming Kingdom Bird didn’t happen
-Kyaa this is major channel-style reaction
Viewers who flowed in from Evening Wide also sent donations.
“Ah, yes. Thank you. Blossom Fan Nut Group.”
“Yes. It was my first talk show. The most entertaining person was definitely Lilzandi…? Just their existence was hilarious.”
“Archery… I’m fine now. Thank you.”
As expected from being new to Almond’s channel, there were plenty of question-style donations.
-So many newbies came lol
You’re unfamiliar to me, almond…
Why do you guys call out names!
[Kingdom donated 10,000 won!]
[Bro! Are you seriously a celebrity now!? Huh!? Your arrows don’t have souls anymore!?]
“Kingdom. Thank you.”
-“Curt” lololol
-Info) Originally arrows were meant to destroy the opponent’s soul
-Thank you cut lololol
After a brief update chat session passed.
Now it was time to start the game.
“Alright. Let’s start Zombie School. I’ll continue from where we left off last time.”
[Rubisword has donated 10,000 won!]
[Wow! But where did we get to? haha]
-lol totally forgot
“After taking a year off from broadcasting, how are we supposed to remember you? hahahaha”
-no breaks allowed ever
The viewers joked about it being just one day off, not a year.
However, there might be viewers who genuinely couldn’t remember. Because of this, I felt I needed to explain.
“Ah… that’s where we got to.”
I scratched my head, thinking about how to make them understand all at once.
Then I pointed my finger gun at the camera and said.
“Chiki-cha.”
A recreation of the part where I had “chiki-cha’d” Wujung Kim.
I remember it right away lol
Ah, so that’s the part where you got “chiki-chaka’d” ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
hahahaha
Memories of Zombie School, buried beneath everyday recollections, came rushing back.
-omg my heart…..!
Suddenly got goosebumps lolololol
I love almonds ㅠㅠㅠ
The game began.

* * *
“How about it?! Huh?! How is it! Call me Jegal Hyeon-a!”
Upon entering, I found that Hyeon-a, the convenience store clerk, was still cornering Pizza Bread Suhyeon, demanding that he change her surname to Jegal.
In game time, it had just happened moments ago. This was likely because we had defeated Baek Jun-su’s gang.
-lmao lololol
-She’s been like this for two days straight now lololol
-Romance of the Three Kingdoms fan lololol
For the viewers it had been two days, but from Hyeon-a’s perspective, she’d probably only been showing off for about thirty minutes. It wasn’t particularly strange.
I decided to speak first through the broadcast microphone channel.
“Hmm. So the current situation is… Baek Jun-su killed Wujung Kim and withdrew, right?”
-Yeah
-Yes
-That’s correct.
“But Juhyeok Kim kept getting hit with fear and couldn’t fight Baek Jun-su… and it seems he told his colleagues about it too.”
-That’s right
Walnut high-speed spin wow
-True reset didn’t happen lololol
“And actually, I watched Balloon Gum’s broadcast…”
I’d only said that much.
The chat exploded with laughter, filled with ‘lololol’.
-lololololololololol
-Ah… you opened that box…
-You saw something you shouldn’t have lololol
-Lmao lololol
-Ah, what a shame. Almond’s going to keep suffering lololol
-lmao lololol
“…Yes. Now I also understand why the infirmary is so good. It seems like Baek Jun-su’s gang thrived largely thanks to the infirmary.”
Based on the information I’d seen from Balloon Gum’s broadcast, I decided my next plan would be to head to the infirmary.
“Now I’ll try going to the infirmary. But… if I go to the infirmary, there are delinquents there… hmm…”
-No no no
-The infirmary is definitely good, but not right now
-Won’t you just get fear again if you go??
I scratched my head.
I need to go to the infirmary. But it’s the enemies’ stronghold.
The infirmary isn’t a place I can easily take over.
Before that, I need some kind of connection.
“Or maybe just secure up to the bathroom again?”
I peer outside through the empty keyhole.
Even just securing the bathroom again would make life easier.
However, Baek Jun-su didn’t simply retreat.
Unwilling to retreat from the front line they’d so painstakingly pushed forward, they left behind one surveillance student.
The student selected as the Surveillance Student stared at his phone with tense eyes. Leaning against the wall beside him was a rather menacing ohamah.
“Huh?”
I adjusted my grip on the steel pipe.
‘Fear doesn’t work on him.’
In my eyes, what Baek Jun-su had left behind wasn’t a surveillance student.
“He left us a weapon.”
Baek Jun-su had left the ohamah with me.
