The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 4 Episode 078
26. The Star Arrives (3)
Today was the day another massive live streaming platform launched domestically.
Naturally, the streamer community couldn’t help but make Cheese’s opening ceremony a hot topic.
[Did all the streamers really gather???]
[The scale of the Cheese launch event is insane lol]
[Is this like a week-long group retreat? lol That’s crazy lol]
[Streamers are doing a group retreat to beat Paprika!? lol]
It was an unprecedented group broadcast event in live streaming platform history for the opening ceremony.
[If Cheese pulls this off, take my upvote lol]
[Who planned this? Seriously, the fact that they actually pulled it off is amazing]
[Are they really all playing the same game together? Wow, I’m literally shaking lol I can’t calm down]
It wasn’t just about many people gathering. In reality, these were people who rarely ever met, all entering the same game.
The variety of fields was impressive too. It wasn’t just game streamers—there were singers, talk show hosts, voice actors, models, and more.
Nearly every type of streamer profession was represented.
-I can’t believe all my favorites gathered like this…
└Looks like a hidden camera prank lol
└Cheese must have spent some serious money
-Is this real? How did they get everyone??
└How did they convince them?
-Wow, even Jello showed up lol
└Really???
└Yes yes yes, look carefully lol
-Cutie Pie, Jello, Ppulranem… Is this lineup real???
It was an unprecedented event created by the convergence of major incidents like Cheese’s launch and Tribby server shutdown.
It was natural for viewers to be excited, and the community felt that emotion directly.
The post generation rate began skyrocketing.
[Since they’re short, Hong-cha stands out the most lol with that red ponytail lol]
[Balloon Gum is literally a real person right? lol You can tell immediately]
Miho is a model, but they really nerfed her short legs… ㅠㅠ
[The short ones are so cute lol]
.
.

However, when this many people gathered, there were naturally downsides too.
Rilpro, who was experienced in such matters, had already posted a prophecy on ‘Big’.
Big) Checking out Cheese’s opening? Now toxic fans are gonna fight like dogs for a while lol
-Let’s go to the Colosseum~
-Even if Tribby shuts down, the drama arena stays open like always lol
└Real talk lol
-Hype hype, already can’t wait drooling
└Those crazy bastards lol
└They only exist to fight… Ril the evil spirit…
-We literally opened the gates for this
-It was the Colosseum’s grand opening lol
When so many streamers gathered in one place, viewers naturally focused on how prominently their favorite streamer stood out among them, and how central they were to the action.
In other words, an implicit competition unfolded among these top-tier streamers over who would shine the brightest.
Currently, the one receiving the most attention was naturally Jello.
[This is the first time I’ve ever seen Jello do a collaboration, and the other streamers are all shocked too lol]
Despite possessing a fanbase in the industry’s highest tier, his collaborations had always been limited, so his participation in such an unusually large-scale collaborative content was truly exceptional.
It was only natural that all eyes were on him.
-For real lol
-Chocosong is sitting right next to Jello, so hyped lol
└Wow lol, she’s got it made
-The streamer of streamers…
-You’d need to stick with Jello to amount to anything
-But will Jello actually collaborate?
└I’ve never seen him have a proper conversation with anyone except his close friends lol
Just as the question of who would do what with Jello became the hottest topic.
It happened.
“Now then! Let us fire the opening celebration cannons for Cheese Village Server!”
The moment the Cheese opening cannons fired.
“Cheese’s─”
Village Chief Cheddar raised his hand high, and the fireworks erupted all at once.
Boom boom boom!
Right in the center of the scene everyone was watching.
“…Almond?”
Almond had appeared.
-?
-??
-?
-What?
The broadcast channel’s chat was instantly flooded with question marks.
Meanwhile, the fireworks had already shot skyward.
Boom boom boom!
Multicolored light burst forth, and Almond’s shadow stretched across the plaza in all directions, dividing it into eight sections.
-Almond??
-Is that Almond??? lol
-What lol, what kind of villain is this? lol
-lmao
-Kyaa
Almond’s silhouette, appearing as a dark shadow, was imposing enough to send chills down one’s spine.
Truly, a villain’s entrance.
Even if he was only two heads tall.
-How did he come out from there??
-This is how a real star makes an entrance~
-The true protagonist has arrived lololol
-The plaza was so packed he spawned above it???lololol
-What is this, Darth Vader?lololol
-Now that’s it~
-Must’ve gone to the wrong server and transferred, that’s why the spawn coordinates are like thatlololol
-A born troublemaker lololololol
-Wondered where he went
-Such an attention seeker lololol
The streamers cheered at Almond’s heroic yet villainous entrance.
“Wooooooow!”
“Almond’s got such style!”
“You’re so cool!”
“Wow, I’m jealous.”
In fact, many of them wanted to team up with him in the platform championship.
-lololololol
-This is it
-Almond suddenly became the protagonist lololol
-He’s just a born troublemaker lololol
“Ah… J-just now, Almond has arrived…”
Lee Jang Cheda tried to explain the situation belatedly.
‘It was a pre-arranged production. What is this.’
He couldn’t rule out the possibility that this was a surprise production he didn’t know about.
The timing and location were far too coincidental, after all.
Moreover, since the planner of this event was Almond’s manager Hodu, that possibility seemed even more likely.
With that thought, he turned around to look at Hodu and realized something.
‘…Or not?’
Hodu’s eyes were bulging out in genuine shock.
“Y-you crazy bastard. What are you doing coming out from there?!”
If this reaction was acting, then this wouldn’t be the Cheese opening ceremony—it would be the Oscar stage.
‘It wasn’t a production.’
Having figured it out, Cheda tried to explain again.
“Ah, Almond must have had some special reason─”
The superstar Almond didn’t give him time to explain himself.
“──Huh!?”
The final scream of the enemy echoed as he plummeted straight toward the center of the stage.
Well, having materialized in the middle of the sky, free fall was inevitable.
‘Insane.’
Splat!
He died right there, dutifully obeying the laws of physics.
[Death]
Thud thud thud.
Basic items scattered across the ground in a chaotic shower.
“…D-death?!”
Cheddar’s words trailed off there.
The main broadcast chat scrolled at a speed that defied visibility.
-?
-??
-Lmaooooooo
-Lololololololololololololololol
-That guy really knows how to make an exit with style.
-Lololol
-“A comet-like rookie”
-Haha fell from way too high
-Village’s first death lol record lol
-Death by special circumstanceslol
-Lmaooooooooooooo
-Lololololol
.
.
.

* * *
I was the most bewildered of all.
“Wh-wh-what?!”
Thwack!
[Death]
The screen turned monochrome as I received my death sentence.
I never expected to die the moment I appeared.
‘This can’t be happening.’
I turned my attention to the chat to make sense of the situation.
But instead of explanations, the chat was filled with nothing but mockery.
-Didn’t even get a million won in donations, why the reaction…
-Who donated lolol
-lololol
-Hilarious
-Lmao
-lololololol that expression lololol
-Legendary from the start lol
Whatever had happened, it didn’t seem to be anything serious based on their reactions.
[Resurrection]
I was reborn at the designated respawn point on this server.
‘A village… is this?’
I’d heard the village was prepared.
But this place had nothing to call itself a village.
Of course, this Cheese Village was something the players would have to build up themselves over time.
For me, someone experiencing Survival Craft for the first time, this wasteland was bewildering.
“This is the village?”
-Seems like it?
-No clue;
-How would we know…
I see. They don’t know either.
“But why did I fall from the sky in the first place?”
Of course, none of the viewers gave me a proper answer.
-No idea lol
-It’s a bug lol
-Maybe the z-axis coordinates carried over when the server migrated?
-First time seeing this happen lol
-How would anyone know that
-Because you’re a superstar
Well, they genuinely had no idea either.
That’s when it happened.
Pababam!
[BigSon has donated a whopping 1 million won!]
[React first, then donate]
React first… then donate?
I didn’t understand what that meant at first, but I realized it later.
‘Ah, by falling to my death?’
Because my reaction to high-value donations was dying.
-Ooh
-Keu
-Wow
-Making money even after death
Haha, that’s crazy/amazing!
-Dead Almond beats living unemployed people…
This was the first 1 million won of the day.
“Wow! Thank….”
I tried to bow my head with my 2-head-tall character to express gratitude.
Pwoong!
“!?”
Suddenly my character exploded again.
[Death]
-???
-?
-What?
-Ahahahahaha
-Is this it, donations connected???
Hahahahahaha
I’m dying laughing
Back-to-back 2 losses lolol
Fortunately, I don’t have anything left to drop now, but regardless—two deaths.
“What?!”
I was startled and looked around frantically.
For someone whose no-death clears become content no matter what game I play, to die twice right after entering—
Survival Craft… Is this game scarier than I thought?
I was looking around, unable to grasp the situation.
Suddenly, someone appeared beside me.
“Choo choo choo~ Chuka chuka~”
It was a character wearing a white cheese-patterned t-shirt.
[Camembert]
It was Camembert, one of the admins.
“Congratulations on our server’s first 1 million won donation death!”
“…Congratulations?”
I was offering congratulations at a funeral.
hahahahaha
His/her expression lol
-First time seeing death congratulations lol
What the heck is this lolol
“Ah. You didn’t know. I explained it before. You must have forgotten. Hahahaha.”
Camembert pulled out some kind of placard.
“Look at this.”
===== =====
[Cheese Village Sponsorship Rewards]
5,000 won = Cheese Cookie
10,000 won = Random Buff
100,000 won = Random Status Ailment
300,000 won = Random Monster Summon
1,000,000 won = Instant Death
==== ====
The 1,000,000 won sponsorship reward was instant death.
It was a system where viewers could torment the streamer with money.
“Ah…”
I think I saw it at the briefing.
I scratched my head.
“I’ll attach this right next to your stream.”
Thud.
When Camembert snapped his fingers, a banner appeared in the corner of my broadcast screen.
-Ooh
-100 won for an almond cut? Lol, that’s cheaper than the current market price!
Oh, there’s something like this? Haha
That’s that thing they do a lot at the circus, haha.
-Cheese trying to rake in the money
Isn’t it crazy how almonds’ original reaction is dying but it’s not a bad deal?
“Anyway, since you died first, you arrived at the village grounds faster than the other villagers. You could use that advantage to try building something worthwhile.”
“Ah…”
I nodded as if I understood.
Then I started walking to a completely different place, not the village grounds.
“Um, Almond? You understood, right?”
“Yes.”
“…If you arrive first, you can claim a good spot. Since you’ve lost all your belongings from dying, it’s a good way to recover.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Haha, listen up for a second.
-Yeah, that’s right. (I don’t know)
-Someone needs to kill him again for him to come to his senses lol
-It’s obvious he wants to do something
Survival Craft is fundamentally a survival game.
But even after solving survival, life continues on, so I could farm, buy land, build houses, and accumulate wealth.
Or if I hunted high-level monsters in the hunting grounds, I could obtain powerful items.
Though it claims to have no purpose, it’s a game with plenty of elements that could become one.
But Almond took the game’s description of being a “purposeless” game at face value.
“Make lots of money! Almond! A hot streamer like you should earn big and become the main….”
Almond didn’t fall for Camembert’s vulgar whispers.
‘Why would I earn money even in a game.’
From the start, I had no desire to accumulate wealth in Cheese Village or possess some remarkable item.
I just wanted to relax.
That’s why fishing was the content I wanted to do most.
“Yes. I’ll make money through fishing. Here I go~”
He dashed toward the nearby lake visible on the map.
Boing boing boing…!
His short, two-headed legs covered the distance in an instant.
-lol why is he so fast
-This guy’s movement is different lol
-Why is he so quick lol
“Oh, Almond! Do you know how to make a fishing rod? More importantly, you need to change your nickname to Korean!!”
Camembert couldn’t interfere any further, so he explained the final rule and disappeared.
Thus, Almond—the village’s first death and first resident.
He ran to the lake to fish.
But he didn’t know yet.
‘Where’s Almond?’
‘Almond oppa disappeared alone.’
‘I’m definitely sticking with Almond.’
From the beginning, his fate was never meant to be one of mere relaxation here.
