I Became the Eldest Daughter of 10 Siblings

Sincerity doesn’t always get through. Positivity is not a cure-all. Effort always betrays you.
Accepting this immutable equation makes living in this world a little easier.
However.
There are foolish competitors in this world who deny this equation and live by whipping themselves.
And people applaud and cheer for these fools.
I think I’m probably one of those people too.
*
Here are two people with completely different notions of time. For one person, time is poison, for the other, time is medicine.
One is Kang Yohan.
For him, time is poison.
The second hand becomes a needle, injecting poison into his body every second.
He doesn’t have much time left as a pro gamer, and in human terms, he’s barely breathing, dependent on an oxygen machine.
The upcoming tournament is Kang Yohan’s last tournament, his last chance. Like a star shining brightest just before it fades, Kang Yohan was preparing for his last dance. Practice, practice, and more practice.
The other one is me, Han Yujin.
The passing time was as potent as expensive medicine.
It’s been two weeks since I met Rilme at the arcade.
First, PD Kim Hwachang’s filming finally ended. Kim Hwachang grumbled alone that the ending was somewhat lacking, but well, that’s his business.
I hope the broadcast turns out well and becomes at least a thread of gold for my livelihood.
As for internet broadcasting… I barely turned it on.
Fans seemed to understand more or less when I gave the reason that I was helping Kang Yohan practice and preparing for the semi-pro selection.
Ah, the second child Han Sejun finally took the college entrance exam too. As soon as it ended, I grabbed him and made him learn editing work under Moon Jaehyun. Along with manager work too.
Lastly,
I finally submitted the application for the semi-pro selection. The long-awaited selection was just 5 days away.
And now I’m…
Practicing intensively in preparation for the storm.
For two weeks, I practiced endlessly, alternating between Kang Yohan and all three races.
The number of games we played,
213 games.
This person practiced like crazy as if he never gets tired.
“I feel like I’ve become some kind of practice machine.”
“Ah, just once. Just one more time!”
Still, the results are… quite encouraging.
In the 37th game, Kang Yohan beat my Insect for the first time.
In the 84th game, Kang Yohan beat my Alien for the first time.
And in the 143rd game, Kang Yohan beat my Human for the first time.
The resulting record:
213 games, 193 wins, 20 losses.
“Wow, this is really driving me crazy!”
Kang Yohan exclaimed, melting like ice cream.
Then he shook my shoulders and said,
“Ms. Yujin. I’ve improved a lot, right? Huh? Please say so, please.”
“Yes. You’ve really improved a lot. Your weaknesses are being fixed one by one too.”
At my praise, Kang Yohan grinned and laughed brightly.
Seeing him like this, he’s still unmistakably a boy, a boy.
I pointed at the monitor and said,
“Look at this.”
Three episodes of had been uploaded to my YouTube account.
There wasn’t much content. The tournament hadn’t even started yet. All that was shown were scenes of Kang Yohan practicing, eating, and agonizing while living in his studio apartment.
But the comments were quite serious, as if everyone was immersed in nostalgia.

@frusicante3
While the player I admired was working so hard with blood and sweat, what was I doing? It makes me reflect on my own life lololol

@chauvo1212
This is the first program that’s made me empathize this much… I’m also in my 30s and I’ve seen all of Kang Yohan’s ups and downs, it makes me think a lot. As an old player, pushing himself to the limit is really amazing. I really watched it immersed.

A boy who went to the PC bang following his friend. Then discovered his talent and started as a pro gamer. A genius who shocked everyone in an instant. Now called a cliché old-timer. I hope you decorate your last flame brilliantly and exit.

@kkeod
The program itself is so wistful… Because it’s really real, it makes me want to cheer more. I stayed away from Galaxy War for a while after being pushed around in society… But I’m going to make sure to watch this tournament!

@c-ase-love
The planning is good and the editing is decent too. Especially the music at the end is so nostalgic. HaYoo-nim, please make sure Kang Yohan-player wins. As a 10-year Kang Yohan uncle fan, I’m cheering for you ^^

I hope the disrespected female amateur and the disrespected old gamer create a miracle…

└Honestly, it’s tough lolol
└But really if… if… they win, what happens? Apart from Kang Yohan, how far does Han Yujin rise?
└She’d fly through the ozone layer and into space, what else
└At least a lifetime pass from criticism is guaranteed

“Do you see? The comments have already surpassed a thousand. So many people are cheering for Kang Yohan-player.”
Kang Yohan, who had been reading the comments slowly while holding his breath as if savoring them, smiled bitterly.
“…Seeing the comments, I need to work even harder. Ms. Yujin, let’s play one more game!”
“Games can wait for now. First, you know the GSL main tournament maps have been revealed, right?”
“Ah, of course.”
Four tournament maps were revealed.




Kang Yohan, after checking the maps by clicking here and there, burst out in frustration.
“Wow, are these map makers crazy? This is basically telling Humans to shut up and die. They’re all battlefields good for Insect and Alien.”
It was certainly as he said.
In reality, not a single Human would advance to the main tournament in this competition.
There were even serious rumors going around as a joke that the map maker must have been dumped by a woman who plays Human.
However, if Kang Yohan advances to the main tournament, it would be an advantage that he wouldn’t need to practice same-race matchups.
“Ah, what a bolt from the blue.”
“Kang Yohan-player. It’s okay.”
I smiled coyly.
The reason was simple.
It would be revealed later, but these maps… are all Human maps.
Right now, it might not seem like a big advantage that Humans can block the entrance to the front yard, but if you use the future builds I know, they immediately become overpowered Human maps.
And I’m going to teach those builds to Kang Yohan.
Kang Yohan scratched his head and asked,
“The 5th set map for the finals hasn’t been revealed, right?”
“No.”
A peculiar point about GSL.
The 5th set map for the finals is not disclosed.
So players who make it to the finals will play that map for the first time only when they reach the 5th set on the day of.
But I knew.
The 5th set map for the finals.

It was a remade version of the existing Rise of Champion map.
If I told Kang Yohan now, he might collapse foaming at the mouth from PTSD.
Because…
Kang Yohan’s last finals 5th set.
The battlefield that gave him an unforgettable defeat was Rise of Champion.
How did he lose back then again?
He would have won if he had just built a 400 mineral Command Center, but he lost because he had 399 minerals left.
Just 1 mineral. Because of that 1 mineral difference, less than the thickness of a piece of paper, Kang Yohan missed the Golden Mouse.
I stretched like a cat.
“I’ll teach you a new build.”
“A new build?”
“Yes. I taught you the anti-Insect build, now we need to prepare for Alien.”
Kang Yohan nodded like a child. He looked expectant, his eyes shining, wondering what build I would teach.
“The build name is One Barracks Double.”
“…One Barracks Double?”
Disappointment was evident on his face after hearing my words.
“That won’t work.”
Kang Yohan said flatly, as if he had heard something absurd.
“That’s a build I created, it doesn’t work against Alien.”
That’s right. One Barracks Double was a build that Kang Yohan had tried and failed with.
But.
Surprisingly, in the future, this One Barracks Double is refined and becomes an almost invincible killer build.
However, Kang Yohan, the creator of the build, retired without ever tasting that honey.
I raised my drowsy eyes.
“You still don’t trust me?”
“I do. Ah, I do! I even pray in the direction of Ms. Yujin’s house before going to sleep.”
…That’s a bit much.
“I know. I know it’s a build that Kang Yohan-player tried and failed with. But the version I refined feels a bit different. Would you like to see?”
Kang Yohan, sitting close beside me, fell into thought for a moment and then opened his mouth.

“But is it okay to reveal all the know-how like this? What will you do after I retire? All the other teams will just copy Ms. Yujin’s builds.”
“Real know-how can’t be stolen even if you reveal it.”
“…That’s true.”
“Kang Yohan-player, just focus on yourself. You need to prove something else to people now.”
Kang Yohan just fiddled with his innocent lips, then asked softly.
“…What’s that?”
I answered with a gentle smile.
“That sincerity does get through, and effort never betrays you.”
Then, Kang Yohan smiled too.
He smiled very brightly.
