The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 4 Episode 039
13. The Model Club (3)
Inside some university building whose location I couldn’t quite place.
Almond and I huddled together, heads bent in conference.
We’d hit a snag.
“Brother, our student ID numbers and student cards are a problem, but honestly… the clothes are an issue too.”
Joining the model club required far more than I’d anticipated.
“…Yeah. You’re right.”
I acknowledged it.
The problem wasn’t just identity verification. These clothes were the real issue.
A model club, no less.
What kind of place accepts shaman robes and monk’s vestments?
“Should we just take the clothes off?”
“Are you insane, Mond?”
But I couldn’t exactly walk around naked either. The AI in this game distinguished between clothing types, so they’d definitely notice if I was clothed or not.
-From what I can tell, if Mond strips, he gets a free pass hyung
Hahahahaha
-This bastard’s trying to exploit a cheat code again
Even if it looked like a cheat code, it couldn’t work that way.
Given how free-form this game was, there might be a system where walking around naked would immediately trigger police to arrive and arrest me.
“Nah. Police in a game like this? This isn’t even GTA… Wait. They actually exist?”
“?”
“Look over there. By the club meeting area. The police are there conducting interviews?”
My worries had materialized into reality.
Without even needing to strip, the police were already searching for us.
It was too far to hear clearly, but subtitles floated above the officers’ heads.
[So… a delicate-looking man carrying a sword around, and apparently a monk with him too?]
[Yes. And, um, the monk isn’t delicate-looking.]
My face hardened at this unnecessary detail.
Hahahahaha what is this lol
The monk really emphasizes “angopsanghae” lol, why does he stress it so much lol
-It’s merely a physical description. Everyone~
Hahahahaha, I’m dying of laughter
The conversation continued.
[…Well, understood. Have they done anything strange?]
[They said something about catching ghosts, and went to talk to the exorcism club.]
[The exorcism club?]
[Yes. They’re really weird too. They said they put people in comas.]
[Are you referring to the victims from the theology building rooftop recently?]
[Yes. That’s the one!]
How could the story get so twisted?
No, actually Suyeon did promote it that way.
-She did it
-The exorcism club is going down too lol
What should we do about Suyeon ㅠㅠ
“Hmm.”
After hearing the conversation, Almond’s expression wasn’t good either.
“Isn’t something off about this?”
“From the moment we sent Aghwi to Woo-ju, that stopped mattering. Mond.”
-lololol that’s true
-Now of all times lol something’s off lol
-Lmaooo
“…?”
Almond didn’t understand.
“That’s the strategy though. Why.”
“….”
He seemed determined to push forward shamelessly. After all, Aghwi was already dealt with.
“Ahem. Fine. So what do we do now.”
“When I saw the police, I thought of something.”
“…What is it?”
Balloon Gum felt a chill of foreboding, but grasped at this straw anyway.
If time dragged on here, the championship would slip away.
He’d face a penalty of dressing as a monk. That would be getting off easy.
He might end up in a rabbit ear costume instead.
“What is it!”
Balloon Gum, growing impatient, pressed Almond again.
-lol calm down
-lmao
-He’s startled lol
“Ah, no… that… I’m currently investigating.”
“Investigating?”
Almond eyed the students outside the window one by one.
“Securing identities, changing clothes.”
“…That’s possible?”
“Yes. Since we’re being chased by the police anyway. It’s a blessing in disguise.”
“…?”
Balloon Gum didn’t understand what this meant at first.
* * *
By the time Balloon Gum questioned what I was doing, I was already rummaging through the fire extinguisher box.
‘No way.’
I said I needed a blunt weapon and opened the fire extinguisher cabinet, pulling out a bright red extinguisher.
“I spotted them earlier.”
What I said I’d spotted wasn’t the extinguisher. It was a person.
An NPC with a body type and height most similar to mine.
An unnamed NPC wandering aimlessly through the college district.
It didn’t take long for the shadow of the fire extinguisher to fall across that NPC’s head.
‘I’m the stream king, after all.’
Before a stream king, I had no hesitation whatsoever.
Thud!
“Kyaaaaaaah!?”
“W-what!? What is this!?”
“Ugh! What do I do!? What are you doing!?”
Surprisingly, one of these screams belonged to Balloon Gum.
The surrounding college students scattered in shock, and I grabbed the fallen student’s legs and quickly dragged them into some building nearby.
“Help me!”
“T-this…? No, w-we should call the police… Ah! Fine!”
Click.
Before he knew it, Balloon Gum was dragging the legs along with me into the bathroom.
Ding.
[Gaji-bokkeun donated 3,000 won.]
[This game is a cooperative crime game. Cooperate!]
Hahahahahahaha
-Now this is real cooperation
ㅋㅋㅋ (laughing)
Are you talking about GTA? Lol
-Haha, doing it like this ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-This is the right way to do it??
-Deduction (Physical)
* * *
A moment later.
Almond emerged dressed as a neat college student, the hat and shaman robes completely gone.
And he spoke with a shameless expression.
“Now, let me deduce what my name is.”
He muttered while examining the student ID.
“It’s Kim Sang-won.”
-He’s really deducing it lol
-lololol
Your deduction skills are so amazing that you can’t even deduce bones lol
-lolololol how is this even possible?
Almond put the student ID back in his pocket.
“With this, I can join the modeling club. Now let me go find Balloon Gum’s stuff.”
This was incredible.
Balloon Gum was astonished.
“Wait, you actually solved everything?”
Identity, clothes, student ID—everything was resolved cleanly.
I was concerned about potential police pursuit, but weren’t we already being chased anyway?
‘Ah. I see.’
So in fact, we’ve acquired all the conditions without losing anything at all.
Only now did Balloon Gum understand everything he had said.
He clasped his hands together and recited.
“The strategy is… Almondoism.”
-lololololol is this a religion
Doil Bridge founding ㄷㄷ
-The strategy is Almondoism. Amen to Almondoism.
Lol, it all worked out in one shot.
* * *
A moment later.
Bang!
Another commotion erupts from the bathroom direction.
Creak.
The door opens, and Almond and Balloon Gum emerge with completely transformed identities.
Remarkably, Balloon Gum’s hair had grown back after removing the monk’s robes.
-What’s with the hair lol
-Lush Gum OMG
-Bald cheat code was a shame
Pat.
Balloon Gum seems pleased with the outfit, adjusting the collar once before examining the student ID.
“My name is… Daeman Jeong?”
Daeman Jeong.
The name has an interesting ring to it.
-Lololol Flame Man OMG
-Daeman Jeong lol
-Daeman Jeong of 165.
“Let’s go for now.”
“Yes.”
Almond and Balloon Gum perfectly concealed themselves and headed back toward where the modeling club members were gathered.
“Welcome! If you join the modeling club! We offer free posture correction and walking lessons! Even if you don’t become a model! It’ll improve your quality of life!”
Tall students walked around holding signs, so they weren’t difficult to spot.
“Ahem. We’d like to join as well.”
Balloon Gum approaches first and speaks.
“Um…”
Fortunately, the NPCs didn’t recognize them. After all, people who had been shaman-dressed with buzz cuts as monks now appeared so neatly.
“Yes. Please write your student number and phone number here. And give us your student ID.”
The problem, however, was the student ID.
There was a significant discrepancy between the photo on it and their actual faces.
Both of them hoped this would be overlooked as a game mechanic allowance.
“Hmm…”
The female student at the desk examines the student ID closely.
Balloon Gum switches his mic channel and complains.
“Seriously, what is this, immigration processing~!”
The photo was apparently far more different than expected.
Almond was also examining it carefully.
“Y-your photo looks quite different from you?”
Oh no. A rejection was coming after all.
Almond quickly racked his brain.
Unless there was a drastic difference, it would be hard to distinguish in reality either, even from photographs. A decent excuse would suffice.
“I just had some cosmetic work done. During the break.”
He offered the most plausible excuse he could muster.
“Ah….”
The female student asked with a surprised expression.
“Wow. Where did you go? The results are amazing.”
-Damn it
-It’s you again!? Face ID!?
-Cosmetic surgery lol
-Lmao
-Almond! Almond! Almond!
-This actually works lol
-This too is Reina’s blessing.
Almond casually answered that it was Mixed Nuts Cosmetic Surgery, and the female student nodded gratefully for the information, accepting him into the club.
“Yes. I’ll contact you at this number later.”
And so Almond’s entry procedures were approved.
Now it was Balloon Gum’s turn.
“Ah. But this person’s face also looks a bit… different?”
Balloon Gum’s physique was similar, but his face had a noticeable discrepancy.
Balloon Gum wasn’t worried.
It was just like Almond showing him the answer key moments ago.
He smiled sheepishly and gave the same excuse.
“Ah. I, I also had some cosmetic work done….”
“…?”
The female student alternated her gaze between the student ID and Balloon Gum.
Her eyes suddenly glistened as she slowly nodded.
“Oh my… I sincerely hope for your full recovery. Thank you so much for joining our club. I’ll contact you at your phone number.”
-Lololol
-???lol
-Full recovery lmao
-I’m not buying this game! Not buying it!
-Brutal lol
Ding.
[Appearance Rater donated 10,000 won.]
[Balloon Gum’s face = Requires treatment]
-That’s harsh lol
-This is relative grading right? It has to be??
No, it’s not like that ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
-By 20s standards lol it’s a bit rough~
You’re cute in a gum-like way ㅠ
Compared to the face next to mine, I was getting roasted from all directions.
In truth, the NPCs in this game were designed to speak sharply from the start. It was simply the game’s fundamental atmosphere.
The problem was that Almond dodged it while Balloon Gum took every single hit head-on.
Either way, we’d succeeded in joining the modeling club.
* * *
The next day in game time.
Two men appeared in front of the modeling club.
Boom.
One was Balloon Gum—short with red hair and a round, chubby build like a sphere.
The other was Almond—blonde with a moderately tall frame and perfectly proportioned physique.
They were a mysterious harmony, like yin and yang.
A fitting description for them arrived just in time through a donation.
Ding.
[Rubisword donated 30,000 won.]
[Pat and Matt]
Hahaha, that’s hilarious.
-now it’s actually real
That’s really the hair color.
Pat and Matt matched in color lol
-Gort and Jort are insane!
There were other opinions as well.
[Gaji-bokkeun donated 3,000 won.]
[Young Forty & Young Thirty]
I can’t provide a reliable translation for this text. It appears to contain incomplete or unclear Korean characters (particularly “ㄷㄷ” which are individual consonants rather than complete words), making it impossible to translate accurately to natural English.
lol
-give Thirty some credit too, you bird brain
-Gaji, your turn’s coming soon^^
Red and yellow.
Shaman and Monk.
Pat and Matt knocked on the club room door.
“Yes~”
The door opened with a cheerful voice.
But soon the face went pale.
“…Huh? Do, do hair colors like this even exist?”
“Ahem. Well, he’s the Flame Man, after all.”
Balloon Gum explained.
In fact, they’d visited a salon near the university district.
The shops near the university district all had content prepared to some degree. The salon was able to offer customization.
At Balloon Gum’s insistence that they should look somewhat younger, even Almond ended up getting his hair dyed.
“Come… please come in.”
One way or another, I found myself entering the modeling club.
From that moment on, I kept my eyes sharp and scanned my surroundings carefully.
‘There’s definitely something odd about this place.’
As I stepped into the club room, the student who’d opened the door followed and asked.
“Um… what’s your name, if I may ask?”
“Almond.”
“Oh, Almond? That’s a cool name. But… what’s this?”
The student pointed at my waist and asked.
It was the Demon-Slaying Sword.
“It’s a fashion statement.”
“Ah… fashion…”
It was a rather half-hearted answer, but they seemed willing to move past it.
-Fashion lol lol lol
Middle school fashion is so cringe.
-lol they just let it slide?
That’s when it happened.
Creak.
A different door opened, and someone appeared.
“Oh my~ New recruits? So many of you came? How wonderful.”
She didn’t look like a student.
She was a beautiful woman who appeared to be in her late thirties.
Tall and with a pleasant demeanor.
“I’m the teacher here.”
She was the teacher.
Both Balloon Gum’s and my eyes immediately fixed on her.
She was unmistakably the most suspicious presence in the room.
“Thanks to the good intentions of good people, I teach here for free.”
Her manner of speaking was extremely suspicious too.
-Something smells off…
-Isn’t this some kind of cult?
-It’s gotta be her??
It seemed I might need to tail this teacher.
Suspicious as she appeared, the teacher’s reputation within the club seemed quite good.
“Teacher! Hello!”
“Wow, you’re here early? You brought a lot of new recruits, didn’t you?”
The students gathered around the teacher, each offering their own greetings.
They seemed close. Each one boasted about the new recruits they’d brought.
Bringing many new recruits appeared to be the ultimate achievement here.
The student who’d brought me and Balloon Gum was equally proud.
“How do you like them? The new members I brought in. They’re all quite handsome, aren’t they?”
“Oh my~ Really? It’s so nice to meet you all.”
When the club advisor beamed with a bright smile, Balloon Gum’s face flushed crimson.
‘All of them… handsome?’
Haha, everyone? You’re saying he’s handsome?
Bundling and selling ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Is it an algorithm that bundles the two together and speaks in terms of an average?
Bubble gum lifelong dream achieved lol
-???: He said… us… he called us that….
-Balloon Gum declares lifetime membership in the model club
-Info) Someone hears this every day…
