The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 4 Episode 057
19. Natural Disaster (3)
Ghost Busters.
Its final chapter, the last battle.
“Let’s goooooo! Jinmyeongsu, the Patriarch!!”
“Ahhhhhhh! I’ll show you what I’ve got!”
This was literally a battle where everything was at stake.
The Kim Kim Duo no longer engaged in psychological victories, saying Almond would fall this way or that way.
They clashed head-on.
They believed in this game’s difficulty, they believed in the developers’ blood and sweat.
“Not just anyone can clear this!”
“That’s right!”
This was no longer a matter of making the advertisement longer or shorter.
It was the gaming company’s pride, the struggle of salaried workers.
However—
“?!”
“W-wait, why isn’t that moving…?”
Their struggle looked far too precarious from the very beginning.

* * *
The Patriarch, frozen in the cutscene, had allowed Balloon Gum a devastating blow.
Crash!
The moment massive damage struck the Monk, he transformed into a different form.
[Patriarch – Thought Entity]
Of all things, it was a Thought Entity.
Boom!
[Clone Technique]
Almond surged forward at close range in an instant, multiplying into six.
All six versions of Almond simultaneously drew their blades and swung them.
Slash-slash-slash-slash-slash-ahhh!
As all the clones dealt damage simultaneously, the damage output was absolutely explosive.
[Health 65%]
-Wow
-Insane
-Clone control OP
-Damn
In multitasking-style control, minor errors always tend to occur.
Yet Almond’s clones moved with perfect synchronization, as if each one were genuinely real.
“I’ll kill you all!”
Against the Patriarch’s counterattack, unleashing black demonic energy, Almond’s clones scattered in all directions, evading the assault.
Boom!
The Patriarch’s black demonic energy, unleashed with tremendous force, only succeeded in shattering the ground beneath him.
‘Once more.’
My eyes gleamed with intensity.
I had caught the damage timing once again.
Swiiiiish!!
The blade strikes came crashing down anew.
[Health 43%]
In an instant, the Patriarch’s health plummeted below half.
-wtf
-again??
-the damage output is insane
Apnea dealing is crazy
A relentless barrage of attacks without respite.
‘That’s fast.’
Even by my standards, the speed was considerable.
This is the final boss, after all.
To lose more than half his health almost simultaneously with Phase 2’s start.
It was an unexpected turn of events.
However—
[Evil Patriarch – Demon]
‘What?’
——Roooaaarrr!
At that moment, simultaneous with the form transformation, a storm of black demonic energy erupted around the Patriarch.
This was damage that spread instantaneously across the entire field—unavoidable and guaranteed to hit.
[Health 82%]
My health was no exception either.
Poof…!
All my clones vanished.
The clones die from even a single hit of damage.
‘What?’
The problem didn’t end there.
Whoooosh!
[Haunting]
One of the demon’s signature techniques activated—suddenly sinking beneath the ground and disappearing.
“….”
I gripped my blade and quickly scanned my surroundings.
It would surely emerge from somewhere without warning.
But the target wasn’t me.
“Huh?!”
It was Balloon Gum’s turn.
He stumbled backward in shock as the demon surged up from beneath his feet.
Of course, that didn’t help him evade.
Thwack!
Balloon Gum was seized by the demon’s dark, translucent grip.
[Drain]
“Ahhhhh! Aaahhh!!”
Squelch. Squelch.
The demon’s arm writhed, and his health bar surged upward.
[Health 97%]
-Gasp
-That recovery rate is insane
-This is the real deal
-Whoa lol
The viewers were left speechless by the overwhelming recovery.
Even Almond’s eyes grew cold.
The boss was designed to take damage slowly but recover far more than it lost.
‘This won’t be easy.’
A formidable foe.
Especially since the demon type was supposed to be defeated by Suyeon, the NPC—not Balloon Gum or Almond.
Yet it possessed such overwhelming advantages.
That was when it happened.
“Die! Jinmyeongsu!”
Crackle!
Suyeon charged forward, her spear erupting with white lightning.
Whoosh!
Her strike passed cleanly through empty air.
[Haunting]
The Patriarch had already vanished beneath the ground.
“Ugh… ugh…”
Thud.
Balloon Gum, drained of his health, lay motionless on the ground.
Suyeon spun around, searching for the Patriarch.
“Where… where are you!”
The Patriarch emerged beside Suyeon and swung his massive scythe.
Boom!!
Suyeon barely blocked it with her shield, but her health still drained.
“Ugh.”
[Health 93%]
In frustration, Suyeon thrust her spear again, but it missed once more.
Whoosh.
The Patriarch had vanished back into the ground.
‘This won’t work.’
I realized that I needed some kind of strategic coordination here.
Slip.
I pulled out several talismans from my pouch.
‘When he emerges next time….’
Whoosh.
The demon burst out beside Suyeon again and swung its scythe once more.
It was quite fast.
I hurled a talisman at it.
Pop!
The talismans I threw from quite a distance flew accurately toward the Patriarch.
But no matter how good my aim was, I couldn’t change the speed of the projectiles themselves.
There was no way an agile monster like the Patriarch would take a hit from talismans thrown at this distance.
Slip.
He didn’t even bother diving underground—he simply sidestepped and evaded.
But then—
[Spatial Stride]
I never expected the talismans I threw to actually hit.
I was simply forcing the Patriarch’s movement.
Burst—
“!”
I appeared right beside the demon and immediately pressed a talisman directly onto it.
──Click!
[Binding]
Crackle!
The talisman glowed red, binding the Patriarch’s feet for a moment.
That’s when Suyeon rushed in.
“Haaaaaaah!”
Thrust!
Her spear pierced through the Patriarch’s abdomen.
[Health 83%]
The Patriarch’s health dropped again.
In that instant, the Patriarch immediately transformed.
Crack!
[Evil Patriarch – Thought Entity]
It was a Thought Entity.
If it had followed the sequence, it would have been a Yokai, but it seems the selection was random.
For me, that was fortunate.
I seize the moment and rush forward, swinging my blade.
Clang!
It cancels out with the Patriarch’s demonic energy attack.
I find another opening and unleash a barrage of strikes.
Crash!
The Patriarch neutralizes my attack once more.
‘What?’
Then, a demonic energy explosion erupts from where the Patriarch swung his arm.
Boom!
“!?”
An off-beat attack.
I dodge, but lose my balance.
Another demonic energy blast shoots forth.
This one fires directly from the Patriarch’s eyes.
Every attack is off-beat, time-delayed, or instant.
Not a shred of pattern—insane difficulty.
The Patriarch grows stronger by the moment.
Each time his type shifts, he learns my attack patterns and adapts accordingly.
Whoosh!
The Patriarch delivers a decisive blow.
Demonic energy extends toward me.
‘This is getting harder and harder.’
Even I lose my footing and find no way to evade. My spatial teleportation cooldown still has a sliver remaining.
But then—
“Brother!”
Whoosh.
Suyeon blocks the path, and the attack vanishes.
[Full Counter]
She activates her psychic ability.
The Patriarch’s demonic energy, momentarily suppressed, rebounds directly at him.
Boom!!
Tremendous destructive force.
[Health 83%]
But the Patriarch’s health remains unchanged.
-??
-What?
-He’s fine?
-Is it because Suyeon attacked?
Though she reflected the Patriarch’s attack, it counts as her attack, so it doesn’t work on the Thought Entity type.
Still, she bought me precious time.
[Spatial Stride]
Whoosh!
I emerged from behind the Patriarch and unleashed a merciless barrage of blade strikes.
Clang clang clang clang!
[Health 69%]
The Patriarch swiftly shifted his form once more.
[Evil Patriarch – Demon]
He had become a Demon.
Shhhhh…!
In that same instant, he vanished beneath the earth.
A brief moment of calm.
“Haa… ha… Are you alright, oppa?”
“Yeah, I’m fine.”
Suyeon pressed her back against mine.
“It’s a Demon. We don’t know where it’ll emerge from.”
“Right.”
My eyes scanned the surroundings carefully.
The difficulty was definitely escalating.
I needed to finish this quickly.
-Wow lol this is getting tough
-But why does it feel like only those two are fighting lol
-Anyone watching would think only those two are the protagonists lol
-So Suyeon and Almond are Ghostbusters, and Balloon Gum is like a pet or something?

* * *
Meanwhile, Balloon Gum.
-What are you doing anyway lol
-Come on, participate lolol
-Do something, Balloon Gum!
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to participate in the battle.
His attack skill, the Wind Pressure Bullet, was a troll ability—if fired carelessly, there was no telling what catastrophe might unfold.
“…N-now. No, not now. Now!? That’s not it. Now…!?”
He couldn’t aim recklessly.
Moreover, Almond and Suyeon were locked in a dazzling exchange with the Patriarch, their positions constantly shifting.
Boom-crash!
Kaboom!
Whoosh-crack!
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say their positions changed once every second.
Hitting that spot with a Wind Pressure Bullet with precision was far too difficult.
At least, that’s what Balloon Gum thought.
Ding.
[Condoc donated 10,000 won.]
[Currently flirting with the Wind Pressure Bullet~]
-lololololololol
-For real lol
-Hahaha lol
-So accurate lol
-No idea what he’s doing lol
-He is casting though right??lol
-lol flirting lol
To the viewers, Balloon Gum’s current state might have looked pathetic.
“No. Listen here. Put yourselves in my shoes. Could you fire right now? Do you know what happens when I use this skill carelessly? Huh?”
Balloon Gum had his reasons.
-lol fair point
-True though lol
-If he just fired, it’d all be solved?
-lololololol
-Ad buster (Wind Pressure Bullet)
Every time Balloon Gum misused his skill, absurd and outlandish things happened.
Aghwi shot through the sky, Almond suddenly vanished into a toilet, and he’d even experienced becoming the god of wind and grinding all demons to dust.
“I want to contribute too. But right now, that thing isn’t even a Yokai type—it’s a Demon type. If I do that, who else is it going to drain blood from…?”
Balloon Gum flinched mid-sentence.
That bastard… the moment it became a Demon, it targeted Balloon Gum.
Was that a coincidence?
Wasn’t it targeting the weakest individual to drain its blood?
‘Damn it.’
Balloon Gum, whose game sense was second to none, scrambled away with all his might.
Whoosh…!
A massive hand seized his smooth head.
“…!?”
It had already lunged from behind and snatched him.
“Ahhhhhhhhh! Let me go!”
Slurp, slurp.
The Patriarch recovered his health.
-He’s not killing Balloon Gum, just using him for this lol
-Blood pouch lol
-One-trick screaming lolol
-So this cooperation is a 2v2 cooperative game, right?
-Damn, the Patriarch’s got a good head on his shoulders
-Grabbing the bald guy is hilarious lol
Whoosh!
After draining him completely, the Patriarch hurled him away.
Crash!
-lololol what is this
I’m too weak, hyung, it’s like chewing gum ㅠㅠㅋㅋ
-Looks like throwing a soda can in the trash
“Ah… damn it.”
Balloon Gum blinked in the dust, assessing the situation.
[Health 24%]
His health was nearly depleted now.
Meanwhile, Suyeon and Almond continued fighting without pause.
‘This… this…’
It looked like he might finish without getting a chance to shine at all.
-Balloon Gum is useless
Rather, just stay still.
-We’d clear it if Yokai types don’t show up lol
-Real troll behavior.
-Blood bento lolol what is this lol
Look at these insulting messages flooding in endlessly.
Clench.
‘I need to do something.’
He felt the need to do anything at this point.
“This won’t do. Huh? You see those chatters crossing the line? Huh?”
-Oh.
-Scary
-Purge
-It’s a purge
-Ban
“Ban or not, I’ll show you all.”
Thump.
I dust myself off and get back up, aiming my staff.
-Scary
-Everyone close your eyes!
-Gum grenade incoming!
Please don’t show me, I’m begging you.
“I’ll become the Wind God and kill the Patriarch too. Just try transforming into a Yokai.”
Balloon Gum was aiming for that exploit—the same one that had turned Sang-gi Oh into paste in a blender.
Hahaha, I’m just gonna use the bug openly.
-Balloon Gum “I’m definitely using this exploit” determination
Lol, so you’re saying it looks like a bug??
Hahahaha
How frustrated must I be to be like this ㅠㅠ
“No, that’s not a bug. It’s a skill~”
That was when it happened.
Crack!
[Evil Patriarch – Yokai]
The Patriarch transformed into his Yokai form.
Balloon Gum immediately charged forward, screaming.
“Suyeon! Full counter nowwwww!!”
“?”
