34. [Night Soul] Not Human…! (4)
“You’re not human…!”
“?”
Shock rippled through the air.
Amid pools of blood formed by the corpses of marauders scattered in all directions, Joo Seo-yoon stood at a distance, gagging and drooling as she recoiled in horror.
At the epicenter of the scene, which now reeked of carnage and dread, she stumbled backward with trembling limbs, her words tumbling out in disbelief.
“I, I saw everything you just did…? Oppa, what on earth did you do? You’re seriously a monster, a monster…! Right?”
“….”
-Pfft
-Our Bang-ul
-Indigestion pills on lololololololololol
“No, that’s not it! What you did wasn’t just a little fast, was it? What was that! It was almost like a bouncy ball? That’s what it was!”
“What?”
-?;
-Is she in elementary school..?
-What is she even saying?
In that instant, the chat’s fervor cooled as bewildered reactions flooded in.
“You were bouncing everywhere, moving incredibly fast, like a bouncy ball! How could that possibly count as just a little fast…! It was incredibly fast!”
“….”
-Now that she mentions bouncy ball, it feels kinda… no, really cringey..?
“Wow, your expressiveness is amazing, right? It’s enough to make me pick up my blood pressure medication again.”
-That bouncy ball thing was it <<< Seriously, why is our guild master's expression so weird? Why is she like this??
I get what you mean though, right? Honestly, I think Myeong Bang-ul's expressiveness is a necessary evil.
-How can you understand that, you crazy bastard?
…Her words didn't just leave me speechless—they made me want to nitpick.
Faced with such innocent, elementary-school-level vocabulary that even a child would blush at, I paused mid-swallow and tilted my head in confusion.
Something felt off about what she'd said, now that I thought about it.
'…Wait. She said she was watching me fight the marauders? But she just arrived here moments ago?'
For a moment, I wondered where she could have been watching from, but my curiosity was quickly resolved.
'…Ah, I see. She must have been watching through the streaming window from a distance.'
Now it made sense why she hadn't been following me closely even though I'd gone ahead—she'd been watching from afar.
In fact, there was a reason she'd been silently waving her hands in a cheering gesture from behind when I first moved forward.
I was about to nod in understanding when I suddenly realized something was wrong.
I narrowed my eyes and looked at her with a peculiar expression, my lips curling slightly.
"…In other words, you were watching me from a distance together with the viewers."
"…Y-yeah, well. That's right? I mean, it makes sense, and besides, I'm the brains, right? A strategist doesn't take the field—that's standard protocol-"
Before Joo Seo-yoon could finish her panicked string of excuses, I cut her off.
"Still, we should divide our roles fairly, don't you think?"
"Huh…? No, well. Does it really have to be… fair…?"
Joo Seo-yoon, sensing something had gone wrong, tried to quietly slip away, but it was futile.
Tsk.
I narrowed my eyes to slits, my voice turning cold as I continued.
"Magnetic Magic Theory. You can use it now, right?"
"…."
"Let's put in some work. Loot farming—I'm counting on you."
"…!?"
Hahahahahaha
I'm forcing a job change to Magnet Pet lol
-She's not contributing to pushing the game story, so at least she should be able to help with this. Yeah, yeah.
It's not like it's helping—it's just the level of wiping spoons clean, scrubbing chopsticks, and carefully arranging wet towels… is that really considered helping?
"Are you asking to get permanently banned?"
The viewers watching the stream erupted in laughter, but it was only momentary.
After all, it couldn't have been serious. I blinked a few times and let out a faint smile.
"Just kidding. Don't worry, I wouldn't ask you to do something like that. I was just saying it, obviously."
"Phew. Big brother, I knew you'd say that…! I was trusting you───"
"Just don't die and follow along. I'll handle everything else, so just focus on that."
"…."
"That's fine, right?"
In other words.
Bluntly saying, 'You can just breathe and stay alive, so let's not die, yeah?'
The fact that she didn't have to do anything at all meant, in other words, that there was nothing worth entrusting her with in the first place.
-???: 'You have no talent. Don't do magnetic pet.'
-Damn it lol
Even if that's the case, it's weird that even a magnet pet can't do it, right?
You think anyone can be a magnetic pet owner, but being a magnetic pet owner is actually a profession in its own right.
So you're saying I really shouldn't do the magnet pet thing and should just be doing breathing exercises next to it instead?
"an air purifier"
"…."
Amid the endless barrage of mockery from the viewers, Joo Seo-yoon broke out in cold sweat and shrieked her acceptance.
"Aaaah! I got it, I got it! I'll do it, I can do it if I try…!! I can do it when I set my mind to it!"
"???"
…Yet the very person who had triggered this change of heart was simply bewildered.
* * *
Time passed, and the item farming to collect loot ended quickly.
[Magnetic Magic Theory]
Clink.
The spell ability of Magnetic Magic Theory that Halkenburg had given with irritation proved to have surprisingly high convenience.
In-game currency, equipment items, consumables—it tracked and pulled in all the hidden loot without exception.
Because of this, there was no time wasted checking whether there was uncollected loot or not.
Satisfyingly so.
[1,112 Gold]
I wasn't particularly knowledgeable about the in-game currency, but even at a glance, it was no small sum.
—Heh.
—Wow, that's a sweet haul of gold lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
—Not even a starter package, and they're handing out a thousand gold;
—Seriously, this looks like a legit money duplication bug going off lol…?
Just as I thought.
Sure enough, glancing at the chat flowing through the streaming window, the viewers seemed to agree it was quite a substantial amount.
In the end, I'd wiped out an entire band of marauders in one sweep and reaped far more rewards than anticipated.
Joo Seo-jin placed his right hand against his chin and murmured quietly.
"Hmm…. If bands of marauders keep showing up like this, I won't even need to farm for money, would I?"
—lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
—If marauder bands keep appearing, no need to farm for money lol lol lol lol lol
—He's treating marauder bands like a piggy bank that spits out money when you shake it;
—???: His way of thinking is different from ordinary people
Of course, there wasn't much else worth obtaining besides the gold.
The equipment and consumable items the marauders carried were mostly worthless compared to what I'd received from Halkenburg.
My inventory space was limited anyway, so there was no reason to bother collecting them. Regrettable as it was, leaving them all here was the wisest choice.
Trudge, trudge—.
"Ugh—. I'm dying from exhaustion…! Why is there so much to keep track of? I thought I'd die just gathering items!"
In the meantime, Joo Seo-yoon, who had finished farming and organizing all the loot from the corpse field, began shamelessly taking credit.
"Phew. Still, I'd say that's a solid thousand out of a hundred points for an assistant's performance. How about it? I'm pretty capable when I put my mind to it, right?"
Just like before, she was unscrupulously acting as though she'd done most of the work.
However, there was no opportunity to offer any response. Grandis, standing beside her, cast a sidelong glance at Joo Seo-yoon and moved away.
Grandis approached closer to where I stood and whispered with a hushed tone.
As if she couldn't quite dispel her suspicions.
"…If I may be so bold, I find it difficult to believe that mage is also a 'Seeker of Restored Light' like yourself. It would be wise to exercise caution."
"…."
—?
—What is this now lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
—?? The saint is doubting her now lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
—Is the NPC questioning whether Myeong Bang-ul is actually a real player lol lol lol lol lol lol
—???: Ugh.. Are you two really human? No matter how I look at it, you don't seem like it..?
…The sheer disparity in skill was so absurd that even Grandis found it difficult to regard her as the same player, conveying her doubts in a roundabout way.
"Wait, hold on. What do you mean by that? What exactly are you implying about me…? Hey, hello?"
"…Let us depart now. The marauders likely have horses with them outside the Cave, so there's no reason to delay further."
While Joo Seo-yoon reeled from this brutal truth, her mouth gaping, the saint calmly walked out of the Cave.
Whoosh—.
Joo Seo-jin followed right behind her without any particular objection, heading outside.
There was nothing else to say in rebuttal anyway, and it was sound advice after all.
Of course, Joo Seo-yoon, who followed behind with a vacant expression, didn't seem to accept it that way—but it was only temporary.
Before long, we emerged from the Cave, and the moment the visible landscape transformed.
Even I, Joo Seo-jin, couldn't help but let out a brief gasp at the sight that unfolded before us.
"!"
Rumble, boom───.
Parched earth.
Beyond the dying Grassland, where vegetation drained of life stood densely packed.
Within a sky filled with ashen clouds, the wrathful thunder drums down as if clawing at the gates of heaven itself.
In the landscape of a world crumbling away—where it had been so long since anyone could distinguish day from night.
Then, in the moment when even the wrathful thunder was swallowed by the murk, a harsh wind poured down dully, sweeping across my bangs.
Like a phantom.
Whoooosh───.
-Oh…
-The atmosphere is incredible
-The dark fantasy vibes are insane;
-What is this place lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
And then.
"…Certainly. Looking at it this way, it is impressive-"
As my hair slowly settled, an exclamation was about to escape between my lips.
"Whoa- whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa─! What on earth is this? Wait, hold on, hold on! Is, is this real? This is actually happening, right?"
"?"
Suddenly, at Joo Seo-yoon's commotion from behind, I furrowed my brow slightly.
'…No, it certainly has atmosphere. But was it something to get that excited about?'
Of course, the unique, dark, and majestic atmosphere emanating from [Night Soul]'s distinctive worldview was overwhelming.
But it shouldn't have been enough to make her scream like that—it was odd. As I tilted my head in confusion, a voice echoed through my mind.
= Oppa! L-look at this! Hurry! The streaming window! Right now! The viewer count is…!
'…Player chat?'
It wasn't in-game voice.
A tone of genuine shock, different from her usual playful exaggeration. …Certainly, it didn't seem like she was just messing around.
I finally turned my gaze to the streaming window open in the corner of my vision and began to grasp the situation.
And.
*Viewer Count: 12,223 (※SUPER HOT!!!)
*Viewer Count: 12,783 (※SUPER HOT!!!)
*Viewer Count: 13,891 (※SUPER HOT!!!)
…
…
…
'?'
The moment I turned my gaze to the streaming window, the viewer count skyrocketed in an instant.
The reason being—.
《 [Night Soul] : 'Nightmare' Mode, All Boss Raids No-Death Clear! (※with Joo Seo-jin) 》
━Myeong Bang-ul(wntjdbsdlqslek1231)
*Viewers : 15,738 (※SUPER HOT!!!)
Viewers flooded the stream at an unexpected moment, and a new title was established.
-: [Real-Time Trending Stream : 〈#1〉]
'What?'
Out of nowhere.
