The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 3 Episode 210
69. Eight Archers (2)
The final moments of the match.
Kuuuoooong…!
Almond drove two Elephants forward simultaneously, crashing them into the Enemy’s Elephant.
Buuuuuuu!
The struck Elephant staggered backward, releasing a deafening roar.
Atop it rode one of the other Three Archers and several of Anausha’s warriors.
The moment the Elephant’s body wavered, they swiftly leaped onto the Elephant that Almond was riding.
“Kill him!”
They were attempting to seize Almond’s Elephant.
Almond faced off against three Anausha warriors, while one of the Three Archers provided covering fire from another Elephant.
‘This is…’
This was far from simple.
I couldn’t imagine what would happen if I lost the Elephant here.
I knew I absolutely couldn’t let them take it.
To avoid the Arrows, I pressed as close as possible to the Anausha warriors, wielding my long blade with desperate intensity.
Whoosh!
Unlike the Anausha warriors who had been caught off guard by my initial assault, these fighters moved with complete tactical precision.
Shing!
One of them caught my descending blade and deflected it, while the other two rushed forward, surrounding me from three directions.
Then they slashed their swords as if grinding me to dust.
With each wielding two blades, a total of six swords came slashing toward me.
“!”
I reacted instantly, drawing a shuriken and creating two blades from it.
Clang-crash!
With the hand holding the shuriken, I struck one blade hard, tangling it with another.
Clang!
With my long blade, I twisted my body to minimize exposure and blocked the onslaught.
“Insane…”
He blocked that?
The shock on the Anausha warriors’ faces was visible even behind their iron masks.
After that, they pressed forward faster, slashing their blades at me with renewed ferocity.
Clang-crash-crash!
Clang-crash!
Gradually, I began to lose ground.
The opportunity to counterattack had long since vanished, and merely defending was overwhelming.
‘I just need to buy time.’
My only option now was to stall.
Below, the Joseon Cavalry continued to create openings as they moved back and forth, while the Archers’ Arrows blanketed the sky above the battlefield.
Many fell, and many more charged forward once again.
This war would soon reach its conclusion.
And─
[Victory]
These two words finally appeared.
“!”
“!?”
Anausha and those who had been fighting him dropped their swords in despair.
‘We won…?’
Like them, Almond’s expression showed disbelief.
“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
A fierce roar surged forward like an echo arriving a moment too late. Only then did he realize.
‘We made it to the quarterfinals!’
Joseon had advanced to the quarterfinals.

* * *
Hisssss.
The moment the capsule opened, Sanghyeon yanked out the USB he’d plugged in and bolted outside.
“Quarterfinals! We made the quarterfinals!”
Boom. Boom.
Fireworks erupted from the stands and arena, celebrating Joseon’s victory.
Pang-eo emerged from the capsule and roared like an absolute monster.
“Almonddddd!”
“Ahhhhhhhhh!”
All the players bounced around like they’d lost their minds.
And rightfully so.
Joseon’s advancement to the quarterfinals was an upset no one had predicted.
In fact, only two players had even mentioned aiming for the quarterfinals or beyond.
So the players were bursting with excitement, recounting their heroic deeds.
“You know how I survived down there beneath that wall? Huh!?”
Maratang boasted about his exploits holding the line beneath the wall, while Pang-eo shouted directly into everyone’s ears about how they should call him from now on.
“From now on, call me Curve Master! Pang-eo! Got it!?”
Danggeun—for reasons she couldn’t quite explain—waved frantically at the crowd while standing atop Spam.
Everyone had contributed to this match, and because they’d won, they were all the more elated.
The players were in even higher spirits.
Their faces were flushed, their excitement reaching fever pitch as if they were intoxicated.
“Yeah! Curve Master!”
“Yeah! Captain Joseon!”
Pang-eo even called Gon-i “Captain Joseon,” linking arms with him.
“Hahahaha!”
“Hahahaha!”
Pangeo pulled Almond into an embrace and shouted.
“No way! This is Arash Slayer!”
It was Almond.
Arash was the term used in Persia for divine archers, a title bestowed upon Kenin.
Then Ratte took it a step further.
“No, hyung! Who says a mouse is stronger than a tiger!? Almond hyung is just ‘Almond’!”
“Ugh!? Ahahaha! You’re right! Every time we met that bastard, our Almond beat him down! There was nothing special about him!”
The Players rushed toward Almond and chanted his slogan.
“Chiki-cha! Chiki-cha! Chiki-cha!”
Then the Audience joined in, shouting Chiki-cha as well.
“Chiki-cha! Chiki-cha! Chiki-cha!”
The broadcast camera turned toward the commotion and displayed it on the scoreboard.
Hahahahahaha
haha that’s so funny
-The whole world is Chiki-cha…
ㅋㅋㅋㅋ (lol/haha)
Meanwhile, the Persia side quietly exiting also appeared on the scoreboard.
A shot was captured of Kenin flinching as he walked with his head bowed.
The scoreboard replayed that moment in slow motion once more.
Haha, that’s hilarious!
Haha, that’s hilarious!
-Kenin PTSD
I got conditioned reflexes beaten into me lol
It’s not even a goal highlight, it’s slow-mo lol
-Best Famous Scene
Danggeun also mocked from atop Spam.
As if making sure Kenin could hear.
“Kenin has officially changed his name to Chiki-cha! Please stop!”
A wave of laughter swept through at those words.
That made sense—anyone watching the replay without context might actually mistake Kenin’s name for Chiki-cha.
After all, Almond shot him down every time while shouting Chiki-cha.
-So that’s why he’s reacting~
Of course lol so cute lol
-First time seeing Danggeun get that excited
What’s with the tension lol
-Is alcohol provided in the Joseon team capsule?
Hahahahaha, what a twist ending!
That was when it happened.
“Now, the Commander has arrived!”
Sarang, who had taken her time getting out of the capsule with assistance, finally made her appearance.
General, hahahaha, that’s hilarious!
-Wow
-Here comes the big one
Was she expressing a hint of joy?
It didn’t show on her face, but her wheelchair was somehow moving faster than usual.
Ziiiiing…!
It would have been difficult to notice the difference unless you saw it often.
‘What? She could move that fast?’
Sanghyeon recognized it immediately since he saw her frequently.
She was in quite a delighted state.
“Choi Sun-sin! Choi Sun-sin! Choi Sun-sin!”
The Players surrounded her and started chanting together.
Not just dozens, but nearly hundreds of people were shouting her name.
“Choi Sun-sin! Choi Sun-sin! Choi Sun-sin!”
The cheers spread from the audience seats as well.
Her face flushed red as she waved her hands dismissively, but she seemed quite pleased.
In the middle of it all, Pangeo couldn’t help but shout this.
“Hey! Naruto! You’re the hero of our village!”
“What are you talking about? Seriously.”
Danggeun stopped him by nudging him with her foot, but his voice had already made it onto the broadcast.
Haha, that’s hilarious!
That old guy’s a total fanboy lol
Hahahahaha
-It was the Leaf Village~
hahahahahaha
Hahaha, he’s so charming
After the Players’ congratulations had ended.
Soon the MVP selection appeared on the scoreboard.
Game 1 went to Aamond, as everyone expected.
Game 3 went to Daisunsin Choi. An uncommon Commander MVP had emerged.
“Alright! The MVP selections have been made! Let’s bring out today’s heroes and conduct some interviews!”

* * *
The interviews began in order, starting with the first match’s MVP.
The Reporter found myself unconsciously trembling as I held the microphone.
From nervousness?
No, that wasn’t it.
My hands were shaking because I’d put too much force into them.
‘Right. Better to take the hit first.’
I figured that since Joseon had won anyway, there was no avoiding this.
At least I wasn’t going to be interviewing that person endlessly—that was a relief.
The other one was the Commander, so I felt like we could communicate.
I sharpened my gaze and rushed forward with an energetic expression.
“Hello! Congratulations so much!”
Both of them nodded in response to my greeting.
“Aamond! Daisunsin Choi! Joseon has shown us the miracle of reaching the quarterfinals! Did you think something like this would happen?”
The microphone turned toward Sanghyeon.
He nodded as he answered.
“Yes. I’m already thinking about winning the championship.”
-Whoa
-That’s the spirit~
-Championship lol
-Quarterfinals is already amazing
-Let’s go to the semifinals and show some ball possession!
-Nice
Through the fake national broadcast, I already knew Sanghyeon was thinking about winning the championship.
‘If you know your enemy and know yourself…!’
I recalled the wisdom of my ancestors and continued the interview with energy, showing not a hint of confusion.
“Wow! Even the championship!? What tremendous ambition—”
But then, an unexpected interruption came from somewhere.
“I’m aiming for the championship next year.”
“I’m… sorry?”
The Woman in Wheelchair. She seemed normal enough, but something about her statement was off.
I understood she had exceptional ambitions, but the timing was strange.
It felt like she was saying, “My ambitions are bigger—why are you praising him?”
-???
-Huh?
-lol what
-What? lol
-Whoa
“Wow! Looking ahead to next year! Truly, befitting a Commander who sees the bigger picture….”
Even as I said this, I felt something bitter.
And for good reason—he had faced the demon of interviews armed with nothing but this single microphone.
I could sense it instinctively.
What that thug was about to say.
“I believe I’ll be champion by the year after next.”
Sure enough, a childishly petty argument erupted.
-What are these guys lol
-??
-Of course the Nut Shake has to act stupid lololol
-Why are they competing over this lol
-Lmaooo
-What is this lololol
The Reporter brought the microphone to his lips again, about to say something, then wielded it like an auctioneer’s gavel and asked.
“By any chance… are you available in three years? Haha… then come out early!”
-lololololololol
-Lmaooo
-For real
Still, they both had some dignity—no ambition auction actually took place.
“….”
But Sarang wore a distinctly frustrated expression.
-Stupidity showdown Nut Fans victory
-lololol
-The more shameless one wins
-Are they on bad terms? lol
-The fact they never even look at each other is hilarious
-What is this for real? lol
“S-so then I’ll say you’ll be champion in two years as well! Let me wrap this up… hahaha!”
The Reporter smoothed over the awkwardness with an uncomfortable laugh, then attempted the next question.
“Almond! There was that amazing moment today where you took down Persia’s famous Three Archers! How did that feel? Were the Three Archers really that different?”
As the highlight played again, the viewers gasped in admiration.
It was the scene where he alone swept through eight archers in the forest.
-That part in the forest was insane
-Damn
-Lmao the game almost crashed there lol
-What’s the Nut Shake gonna say now lol
The Reporter tensed considerably.
‘They said there was friction with Kenin.’
Know your enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles, never be defeated.
The Reporter remembered everything that had happened to Almond today.
He’d even dug through the community forums to find out what Kenin had done to him.
‘Just don’t curse him out.’
She figured it was a blessing that Almond wasn’t spewing curses on top of everything else.
After all, the arm Kenin had tried to press down with force was his injured one.
“It’s Eight Archers, actually.”
“…Pardon?”
The sympathetic feeling that had welled up moments before vanished instantly, like foam upon a wave.
“Not Three Archers, but Eight Archers….”
Scratch, scratch.
He scratched his head while speaking with innocent candor.
The Reporter’s jaw hung slack in utter bewilderment.
She had to communicate with the Writers behind her through lip-reading alone.
‘It’s Three Archers, right?’
‘Yes. Three Archers.’
They confirmed it was Three.
So why was he saying this?
“Could it be you’ve simply misremembered the number? Haha….”
“All eight of them have identical skill levels. So I just changed it to Eight Archers myself.”
“!?”
Pfft.
Even Sarang, sitting in her wheelchair, suddenly let out a stifled cough and turned her head away.
The Reporter looked utterly drained of all vitality, her face drained of color.
Meanwhile, the chat window was absolutely bursting with energy.
hahahahahahahahahaha
Hahahahaha
Hah
The vibe totally changed lol
I was like, what the heck is he talking about lol
I just changed it, come on lol
I can’t laugh that hard lol
Hahahaha
The real chiki-cha starts now lol
I’m dying laughing ㅋㅋㅋ
That’s actually legit.
Almond’s interview, laced with such venom, was far more difficult for the Reporter to handle than usual.
As they say, fight fire with fire?
The Reporter, desperate to match his energy, went even further over the top.
“Ah! Truly! Such boundless confidence in your abilities! Magnificent! Almond! We will absolutely! Correct it to Eight Archers! And we’ll inform Civil M headquarters! Persia has Eight Archers! No, Eighteen Archers! No, Two Hundred Archers! We’ll make the correction!”
I can’t translate this as it’s not a meaningful Korean phrase. It appears to be random consonants without vowels, which doesn’t form valid Korean words or expressions.
-18 zodiac signs lolololol
-200 lol
Haha, that’s hilarious!
-The Archer’s rich clients lol
At that, Sanghyeon suddenly shook his head with an expression asking why he’d say such a thing, and corrected him.
“It’s not 200 Archers… it’s 8 Archers. Those people are working hard too…”
“…”
The Reporter unconsciously lowered the microphone without thinking.
‘Why won’t you accept it when I say it? This…’
-Hahahahahahahahahaha
-Is he a troll? lol
-For 8 Archers or more, reservations are required, so please inquire via DM ^^ (hands together)
-“Those people are working hard too” is literally sociopathic lol
-He started it himself lol making people look bad lol
-The Reporter couldn’t hold back and lowered the mic lol
