61. [Night Soul] A Knight…? Not a Barbarian? (3)
As time passed, the viewer count surged rapidly.
《 [Night Soul], ‘Nightmare’ Mode, All Bosses Strategy – No Death Clear 》
━Joo Seo-jin (wntjwls)
*Viewer Count: 11,271 (※SUPER HOT!!!)
11,271 viewers.
A number that could only be built by starting as a game streamer and steadily establishing a loyal viewer base.
For a viewer count achieved in less than a month, the level of attention was absurdly high.
Especially considering that the stream hadn’t even started yet—only the waiting screen was displayed.
-Sudden broadcast meme ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ
-Literally came running like a dog and sat down lol;
-Ugh… at least give us a disaster alert for this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“What? No, why would this need to be sent out as an emergency alert? lololol”
Seojin’s aegyo is seriously content that’s powerful enough to warrant a national disaster alert, no cap.
Honestly, it’s ‘pure fun’ that can’t be compared to Infinite War or Blbon, but it could even send out disaster alerts lol
What’s up with the teachers secretly raising their own game’s ratings and lowering other games’ ratings? That’s messed up;
With the chat actively buzzing, everyone waited for the stream to begin.
───.
Screen transition.
Moments later, as the waiting screen ended, the broadcast began transmitting with the Select Room as the backdrop.
Joo Seo-jin stood at the center of the pristine white space, his figure coming into view.
Slick—.
The moment his lips parted slowly yet deliberately, and words began to flow.
“Hello, this is Joo Seo-jin.”
-!
-Kyaa
-Finally here
-At last, my dopamine returns…!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-The genius of talent broadcasting, returned after 16 hours, 27 minutes, and 11 seconds.
A flood of cheers erupted in the chat.
Perhaps it was because yesterday’s first broadcast had ended on a high note, receiving rave reviews and reaching peak interest.

Before the stream even began, the chat window—already bustling during the waiting period—erupted into even greater fervor.
Perhaps that’s why.
I glanced at the chat displayed on the streaming window and nodded before speaking.
“Hmm… I suppose I started the broadcast rather abruptly, but it seems many of you arrived earlier than expected.”
-lol for real
-now that you mention it, the National Knight Soul Fanbase assembling instantly is pretty legendary lol
-you thought a surprise stream would make us miss it?????? fat chance, dude!!!!!!!!
-lol even if you tried to sneak in content with a surprise stream, it’s pointless lol
It shows that even among viewers, ‘0gun’ is on a different level.
In truth, it was a remarkable achievement, but also an inevitable result.
Following [Night Soul], then [Infinite War], and [Blood Born]—which I played to commemorate my first broadcast.
I had consistently remained at the center of attention with each moment, demonstrating skill without betraying expectations.
The viewership solidifying into a fanbase as concrete as cement was bound to happen quickly.
Therefore—.
“Fortunately. Actually, I was planning to announce this major matter regardless… but it seems I can get straight to the point now.”
-?
-hmm..
-gasp
-what’s with this sudden major announcement, sounds ominous;
-announcing a major matter on a surprise stream..? what is it?;
Realizing the strategy I’d conceived beforehand required no special advance preparation.
-breaking news) Joo Seo-jin to ‘fulfill a streamer’s duty by expanding daily streaming hours to 18+ hours’
-lmao
-N Dae Seo Jin
I can’t translate this because it appears to be written in consonants only without vowels, making it impossible to determine the actual Korean words intended.
“Are you saying you won’t? Hahahahahaha”
Streaming for 18 hours straight is zombie mode, not human lol
I’m hoping it’s real, which is honestly creepy lol
-the National Knight Soul Fanbase expresses full support for Seo-jin’s decision to reduce focus on Infinite War and dedicate ourselves to Night Soul
I’m not sure what that is.
What’s up with Nae-ssam suddenly throwing out a check against Infinite War out of nowhere lol
“Damn, this is seriously ridiculous lol”
Even Pinocchio would lie more convincingly than this.
Propaganda and fabrication are truly pathetic lol
The peak of interest during the stream made this possible.
Normally, even matters requiring periodic mention or promotion would be rushed through if viewership was this high.
Amid nothing but questions, I stepped back and handed off the baton with composure.
“By the way, regarding this major matter, this person here will explain it in detail instead of me.”
And.
Whoosh—.
At the same time, Joo Seo-yoon, who had been standing at the edge of the Select Room, joined the stream with an energetic greeting.
“Ahem—. Good day to you all, teachers? Today’s briefing will be handled by yours truly, Myeong Bang-ul!”
-Sudden appearance lol
-I was wondering where he was, but was he waiting to come out at the right time? Hahaha.
-Daebangul is now in charge of briefings, as he used to be able to do broadcasting, cheering, reaction, and data search with one tool.
Finally, the great artificial intelligence agent for humanity has appeared
No way, human intelligence is a joke lol
“Still, seeing them hype it up as ‘great human intelligence’ makes it look like Myeong Bang-ul is a devoted fan, lol”
“What the hell is this… a loyal listener..?”
Joo Seo-yoon walked forward, feigning a serious demeanor while quickly settling the atmosphere.
“Ahem! Well, it’s nothing major—just an announcement regarding channel operations.”
Clap, clap—.
With a soft applause, Joo Seo-yoon cut through the chaotic chat and continued speaking.
“You might not know, but lately our fans have been uploading a lot of highlight clips on YouTube… and it seems to be getting better responses than expected?”
-YouTube?
-Now that you mention it, I’ve been seeing videos related to Seo-jin lately on YouTube’s algorithm
YouTube’s trending live videos often have Seojin’s videos taking up spots from time to time, that’s true.
Most of the viewers seemed to have seen or were aware of this as well.
“Because of that, we concluded that managing a YouTube channel is essential~ …but the problem is, my brother obviously doesn’t know much about YouTube, and neither do I when it comes to video editing?”
While uncommon, some streamers don’t use the method of uploading edited videos.
It was an exceptional case, but the problem was that Joo Seo-yoon happened to be one of those exceptions.
It was only natural that she couldn’t provide much help to Joo Seo-jin, who needed to officially manage the channel on YouTube.
Originally, this would have been a problem to solve in a different way, but if you change your perspective and approach, the story becomes different.
“So, what’s the conclusion? We’re going to publicly recruit a video editor to take charge of the official YouTube channel! Just understand it that way, and I’ll post the details on the streamer’s channel bulletin board.”
-Wow
-Editor open recruitment ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ
-What’s this about;
-Yeah yeah, that’s right. When the tide comes in, you row the boat—that’s the rule, right.
These hot clips have been going around YouTube lately anyway, so the timing is perfect lol
At the mention of recruiting an editor to edit and upload videos on YouTube, everyone seemed to accept it as natural.
Except for some exceptional cases, most YouTube channels were operated to maximize revenue generation as a matter of course.
While it could be considered a significant matter, the time it would take to recruit an editor was unavoidable, so it was difficult to generate much immediate interest.
However—.
“We plan to upload the edited videos separately on YouTube, and if you just write down whether you’re participating, we’ll also post high-interest videos on this main channel for evaluation…!”
-?
-So we can just upload edited videos however we want..?
-Oh, so that means..
-So from today on, if we edit and upload videos, they’ll all be brought to this main channel too?
I’m trembling/shaking all over.
As new details were added regarding the public recruitment, the viewers’ reactions shifted dramatically.
A difference in recruitment methods.
Unlike the typical approach of opening an official channel, editing videos, and uploading them—which takes considerable time—this method incurred far less delay.
Based on the overwhelming interest accumulated around Joo Seo-jin, I would draw in those uploading edited videos through an audition format to the official channel.
-Tsk.. If it works like this, quite a few videos would be uploaded to YouTube starting from dawn tomorrow..?
In other words, this meant I could operate the official channel immediately.
By opening an official channel on YouTube and building its weight class while absorbing interest without waste—it was a two-for-one opportunity.
-If edited videos are uploaded to YouTube and sorted by popularity, they get brought to this channel..?
A method of obtaining edited and uploaded videos without any effort for a while, much like running auto-hunting.
This was also a glimpse of an innate talent hidden beneath Joo Seo-jin’s overwhelming physicality.
Simply put, this was───
-Then… isn’t this just free farming, sir..?
“Hmm, even for a crude technique like that, it’s quite impressive… I should call it the Absorbing Castle Great Method.”
-No?.. If you use Absorbing Dabeop, it’s magic, you crazy bastard hahahaha.
-Look at how he is sneakily criticizing me for having a magical constitution.
…Well. In other words, it was a talent for effortless gain.
* * *
A major announcement.
After finishing the declaration regarding public recruitment, I logged into [Night Soul].
「You have selected and executed [Night Soul]. After the countdown, you will access the program.」

…

…
[START]
───.
The Select Room.
The pure white space vanished without a trace, and I opened my eyes in the place I remembered.
The Necromancer Tower Lord’s Castle.
I had awakened on the battlefield where I fought the boss after receiving the speedrun Quest for [Night Soul] not long ago.
-Ugh
-Damn it!
-After ending the long Infinite War dominance period and Blood Born dominance period, I’ve returned to the National Knight Soul Fanbase…
~Ahh, this is it, this is the stuff lol those bastards are so damn funny lol
Last time.
After clearing the speedrun Quest for [Night Soul], I had focused on other games for a while, so positive responses continued to pour in.
Well.
After all, Joo Seo-jin’s rise to popularity was also due to [Night Soul], so it was only natural.
Especially considering that I was also the first in the world to unlock the hidden route.
“Hmm.”
My contemplation didn’t last long.
With a faint metallic clang—’clank’—as my armor trembled, I rose from my seat and stroked my chin.
“The Speedrun Quest… I already dealt with the Necromancer Tower Lord last time, so now I just need to return to Halkenburg, right?”
-Yeah
-That’s probably it
-I just stopped there and saved, then went to the Infinite War
-Slowly heading back to base, then continuing the Halkenburg Quest should work
Exactly.
After clearing the Speedrun Quest, returning to base was something I’d been putting off.
There were several reasons, but the most important one was already decided.
[Sponsor ‘Let’s Go Hardcore’ donated 10,000 won]
━Still, I should do what needs to be done… I didn’t finish all the item farming before I logged off, so I should complete the search, right????
-For real lol
-The Necromancer Tower Lord’s Castle has quite a few materials worth using and places to strip for runes
-We probably cleared all the mobs anyway, so if we loot everything from the structures, it’ll be quick right?
The viewers talked on, thinking about the unfinished item farming, but it was only for a moment.
“Ah, right. I need to do item farming… but I was forgetting the most important thing.”
*Rub*
I lightly rubbed the back of my neck and began to move.
“Hmm. The boss battle is over, but it seems I forgot to grab the most essential thing first.”
*Thud, thud*
“Then, I’ll be back with it shortly.”
-?
-What? What are you bringing back??
-Real talk; what’s he bringing back, we need to auto-farm with Myeong Bang-ul
-She even has amazing skills like magnetic magic, so we should capture Myeong Bang-ul’s performance too
Casually walking through the Necromancer Tower Lord’s Castle, I began heading somewhere, and everyone was confused by my actions.
As if it were nothing, they all dumped the item farming on Joo Seo-yoon and wanted to move on quickly.
However, such reactions faded away in mere minutes.
*Screech, crack—screeeech—!!*
-?
-??…
-!!??????????
The reason was───
-..Wow, how does he even come up with something like that to grab? This is seriously a different approach??;
Because I had farmed something unforeseen, something no one could have predicted.
* * *
Twilight Temple, Training Ground.
It was the moment I faced Halkenburg after returning, having finished everything I needed to do at the Necromancer Tower Lord’s Castle.
Clink, crash───….
In that instant, the bottle slipped from Halkenburg’s hand—the one still standing in the Training Ground, muttering things like “Tch. So you showed up, brat?”—and shattered on the ground.
“I’ve disposed of the Necromancer Tower Lord with my own hands, exactly as you requested.”
Regardless of his reaction, I slowly emerged from the shadows and continued speaking.
Withdrawing something from my right hand with a swift motion, I thrust it forward to display it.
“And as proof of success, I’ve brought the evidence here, so you can verify it yourself.”
“What, are you insane?”
“Ah. And if by any chance there’s a way to use it as material or utilize it somehow, I’d appreciate it if you’d let me know.”
“…Material? Material? A way to util—?”
“?”
“Kgh— uh-huh, uh-hehehehehehe—. Uh-hehehehehehehek—.”
And then.
“…What the hell. Good grief. My drunkenness isn’t just fading—my mind is becoming crystal clear.”
“?”
“…In all my years, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen someone this insane. Are you in your right mind?”
“???”
Halkenburg burst into a hearty laugh, his eyes gleaming with astonishment.
“I’ll admit it, kid. You’re certainly something special.”
The reason being—.
“Definitely, if it’s you, you’d be worthy of inheriting everything I have.”
Because the item clutched in my right hand was no ordinary thing.
[Necromancer Tower Lord’s Skull]
*The severed skull of the being known as the Necromancer Tower Lord, who stood at the pinnacle of necromancy. …A malevolent aura and ominous energy emanate from it. It appears to be usable for something.
━Durability: 237/981
━When Equipped: ???
“…Yeah. I’m telling you straight—someone as crazy as you doesn’t come around often. I’m certain of it.”
“???”
Lol seriously
“Haha, why would Haggol-jwa want to get humiliated even after dying lol”
This is crazy lolololololol
I never thought I’d forget to take care of this first, for real;;
-Halkenburg, who complained of insanity, was so vicious that he became calm.
…Unintentionally, I had won the psychological warfare.
