The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 3 Episode 37
14. Gstar Grand Finale (2)
While the Gstar grand finale was underway.
The community was buzzing about how much money Almond had earned throughout the day.
[If you do the math, isn’t it over 9 million won?]
[Haven’t hit 9 million yet.jpg]
[He got 5 million just from missions lol]
[Evidence it’s at least 7 million]
Unless you were the streamer himself, there was no way to calculate the exact amount, but one thing was certain—he’d earned a substantial sum.
Was it the sheer impact of rumors like “I heard so-and-so made this much money”?
Posts like this had even climbed to trending status.
17th) Why Almond Makes So Much Money
It was a post featuring an animated clip of Almond’s reaction.
And below it was written:
==== ====
An unbreakable determination that converts his own life—and even Hanna—into pure cash.
==== ====
-Unbreakable determination lmaooo
-Actually, someone was lying about making 10 million today… Ugh! Who are you!?
-Unbreakable… reminds me of my military service.
-Someone called it “currency conversion romance” and I lost it lmaooo
└Not transfer romance but currency conversion romance lololol
└Currency conversion lol romance lol this is too much lol
-When you convert every penny into money without saving anything, you’re bound to get rich~
└For real lol
-Fact) He just earned it by being handsome and shooting well.
After that, related discussions continued flowing through various online communities.
For a streamer conducting broadcasts, it was a wonderful phenomenon.
After all, for celebrities, being on everyone’s lips is what truly matters.
[Trending Rankings]
1) Gstar
2) Cosplay
3) Battleraze Ninja Mode
4) Almond
5) Currency Conversion
Almond, unintentionally riding on a misunderstanding worth 9 million won, would soon be furious.
But among the streamers at this Gstar, he was displaying unparalleled mention volume.
Perhaps he was gaining something far more valuable than 9 million won.

* * *
“Over here. Over here.”
Juhyeok was waving from the VIP section of the venue.
Unlike the noisy and chaotic general seating, this area was considerably quieter.
“Wow. There really are a lot of people.”
Because of this, Almond’s voice was able to reach the broadcast microphone without issue.
-For real
-We wouldn’t have been able to see properly without VIP seats lol
-This is gonna be fun
The VIP section was filled with invited streamers and celebrities.
Because of that, I naturally spotted some familiar faces when I looked around.
Miho, Balloon Gum, Takoyaki were there, as well as Hong-cha and Greentea.
‘Is that Cutie Pie?’
In the distance, I could see someone dressed quite extravagantly.
It appeared to be Cutie Pie, a major streamer.
Around her, the area was crowded with streamers desperately trying to get on her broadcast.
Beeeep.
Then the microphone feedback struck my ears.
“Welcome, gamers, to G-Star!”
The host took the stage and greeted everyone.
“Now, we’re about to begin the first event of the Challenge Point settlement—the ranking awards!”
The first event of the settlement show was the awards ceremony based on Challenge Point rankings.
Through this awards ceremony, we could understand how the Challenge Points were distributed and use that information for the auction.
The organizers could also predict the flow and proceed with the event accordingly.
“Through this settlement, today’s sponsor product prices and auction trends will be determined! So pay close attention to who gets how many points!”
Challenge Points are a currency with a fixed limit, so their value changes depending on how they’re distributed.
If we proceeded without announcing the awards, the pricing for purchases could become severely distorted.
For example, imagine an extreme situation where just one person takes 90 percent of the points.
Most people would have no points to spend, but if product prices remained the same?
The market wouldn’t function.
No matter how much money one person has, there’s a limit to what they can buy alone.
That’s why the top-ranking Challenge Point distribution was quite important, and everyone listened carefully.
“We’ll now announce the rankings. This year, we’re only calling the top ten.”
Whoosh!
The screen unfolded, and the staff members moved busily to prepare.
A moment later.
Ping! The screen lit up, and the host shouted.
‘I wonder how much.’
Sanghyeon watched the screen with a slightly tense expression.
I had confidently said I’d receive ten million won.
In truth, since I had no idea about the other challengers’ Challenge Point situations, there was nothing I could say with certainty.
Above all, I didn’t know about the final Challenge Point settlement, so I couldn’t have searched for points with desperate intensity.
That was what made me anxious.
“First, 10th place! We’re announcing it!”
Boom.
The announcement itself didn’t build much suspense, so the results came out immediately.
[10th]
[player code: 589]
[1,032pt]
“Ohhh.”
“10th place has 1,000 points?
1,032 points is 10th place.
-Is that higher than 1,000??
-We can’t see it
The nuts shake isn’t showing up ㅠ
-Hey CEO, it’s higher than a thousand points, right?
Each person’s Challenge Points could only be confirmed by themselves.
Unless someone stole my goggles, no one could see them.
I glanced down at the numbers displayed on my goggles.
Heh.
The corners of my mouth lifted.
“Ahem.”
I tried to hide it, but it was already completely obvious.
Ugh, look at that relaxed expression lol so annoying lol
-Cheetah is smiling…
Wow, that’s way too much lol
-How many points does Aah have???
Haha, so chill~~
Worrying from 10th place was truly unnecessary.
The gap was far too wide.
I congratulated the 10th place finisher with a smile.
“Ah, 1,000 points? That’s quite impressive.”
Clap clap clap.
-That’s so funny ㅋㅋㅋ
Haha, I’m not falling for it! I’m not falling for it!
-Quite impressive (looking way down)
What kind of buildup is this again lol
“So, the person who placed 10th? Are you here?!”
The Host scanned the audience, asking. There were times when people left early.
“Here!”
Fortunately, the 10th-place participant didn’t leave.
“Come on up!”
“Wow. Thank you so much.”
The 10th-place challenger was a streamer.
After all, only a streamer could stake their life on a challenge like that.
“Wow! You barely ate all day and kept doing challenges! That’s 30 games?!”
“Haha. I powered through with sheer willpower.”
“I’ll give you exactly 10 seconds for promotion.”
“Yes!”
He turned toward the camera as if he’d been waiting for this moment and enthusiastically introduced himself: “Streamer! Yanggang here! Yang! Ganggang! And blah blah blah…” before making his exit.
-Ganggang lmao
-What the hell is this
-Does Ganggang mean skinny Ganggang?
What, you played 30 games? ㅋㅋㅋ
Didn’t you only manage to play a few games? ㅠㅠ I’m suddenly worried.
“Excellent. Very spirited streamer indeed. Next is 9th place!”
9th, 8th, 7th place were called in succession, and they were all either YouTubers or streamers. These were the ones even called challenge hunters.
‘Hmm?’
Yet the points they’d accumulated were nothing compared to what I had gathered.
“Oh. That’s quite high.”
This guy’s got his teeth clenched and he’s acting all tough lol
Hahaha the expression hahaha
-Just how high is this guy’s score…
My expression management was slipping.
But there was nothing I could do about it.
‘Is the gap really this big?’
The score difference was truly staggering.
I hadn’t even participated in that many challenges. I never expected such a gap to form.
Was doing those two extra games at the end really that helpful?
Regardless, I watched the ranking settlement with relative composure.
“4th place, please come up!”
And when 4th place came out, it was a familiar face.
“Ah, Streamer Kkakddugi! You were famous last time for sweeping all the challenges. Unfortunately, you’re 4th place this time?”
“Ah… Yes. I messed up one big challenge… Haha.”
If you fall to last place, you essentially only receive participation points.
I knew all too well who the culprit was that created that last place.
It was me.
“Ah….”
I sighed as if sympathetic.
This was essentially killing Kkakddugi twice over.
-Oh…LMAOOOOO
Oh, what the heck is this? lol
Isn’t that the guy who got chopped up in Zombie High?ㅋㅋ
-1 second villain move lol
-You again? Almond!?
The Host extended the microphone toward Kkakddugi and spoke.
“Alright, Kkakddugi. Let me give you some promotional time.”
Since he’d made it this far, they were telling him to promote his broadcast.
They often did this for Streamers whose recognition lagged behind their actual skill.
“Ah. Rather than the broadcast….”
“?”
But Kkakddugi declined the broadcast promotion.
“Actually, I don’t have a girlfriend.”
“Ah! When did you two break up?”
“No. I don’t have one.”
“…You didn’t have one before either?”
“Yes. I don’t. I just don’t.”
-Oh….
-Forever alone?
-Wow
Jeong-gi Chan’s friend lol
It just doesn’t exist lol
Ahhh….
A sympathetic sigh rippled through the crowd.
“Ah… That must be quite heartbreaking. So are you trying to find a girlfriend here?”
What are you talking about ㅋㅋㅋ Who died? ㅋㅋ
I’m so heartbroken lol
Hahaha, that’s so pathetic.
-Something did die. God is dead
“Yes.”
“Then why don’t you give it a proper shout here?”
“Yes! More than wanting my broadcast to do well, if there’s any woman out there with some free time! I’d like to meet you! Ahhhhhhh!”
Wooooooo!
The audience responded to his earnest plea with cheers.
[Forever Alone donated 2,000 won.]
“Nutcracker Shek got first place at school while dating Jesirang, but Kkakduk-jwa… ㅠㅠ ㅋㅋ ah ㅋㅋㅋ ‘God is dead'”
lol
-“God is dead”
-For real man!
-For real he’s definitely dead
-Jesse
-Amen…
“No. I haven’t really experienced much romance myself either.”
Sanghyeon spoke as if he felt wronged.
However, no one believed him.
[Wise Quote Enthusiast donated 50,000 won.]
[Nietzsche said. “Almond, you son of a bitch”]
Haha, seriously lol
Now it’s not even a real quote anymore lol
-That’s real. I heard it.
They say that was his last will… He must have suffered so much from deception.
Nietzsche’s left side…lololol
“Nietzsche. Thank you for the donation.”
“Nietzsche? lol”
-ten lol
You’re such a quote addict, Gyeonshek lol
-Honestly, Nietzsche is cooler than the Wise Quote Enthusiast
Meanwhile, the fourth place’s promotional time ended.
“Ah. That was amazing! Kkakddugi! I hope you find love! Now, next!”
After Kkakddugi’s bold courtship passed.
Fourth and third place came up on stage.
‘Now finally… are the points going up.’
[4th] [1,732pt]
[3rd] [2,001pt]
Murmuring filled the air.
People around me spoke in surprise.
“Wow. Wasn’t the distribution done properly this time?”
“Why are the top rankings like that.”
“2,000?? That’s insane.”
By third place, the points exceeded 2,000. From what people were saying, it seemed like quite high points.
Almond tilted his head, looking at the points visible on one side of his goggles.
‘Still?’
I didn’t expect to still be unable to catch up.
After third place received congratulations on stage and quickly passed.
“Now it’s second place!”
Before I knew it, the announcement was already at second place.
I cannot translate this as it does not represent meaningful Korean text. The characters “ㄷㄱㄷㄱㄷㄱ” are only consonants without vowels and do not form words or convey meaning in Korean.
-Could it be second place?
-Now I really have no idea
Isn’t this supposed to be without almonds??? lol
-Wait, Almond really doesn’t have any points???
Please just tell me how many points it is ㅠㅠ
Starting from second place, the scores could suddenly spike dramatically.
It’s a low probability, but such cases can happen.
However….
“…?”
Upon seeing the second-place score, Almond tilted his head in confusion.
‘Is something wrong?’
He checked the score displayed on his goggles once more.
