The Villain is Too Good at Broadcasting

Chapter 191 Class is Eternal

The historic year of 2030 passed by amidst various preparations.

The year-end party schedule was tight, but thanks to my naturally strong liver, I welcomed the new year without any major issues.

I broadcasted the sunrise live while driving the car that Sung-woo hyung had sold me cheaply, and the filming for and continued.

After a hectic 2030, another busy 2031 arrived.

In fact, my life didn’t change much just because the year changed.

If there was any difference, it would be that negotiations for appearances on public network variety shows began early in 2031.

So, mid-January arrived, and before I knew it, the grand opening of was just a month away.

And my plan began to be executed in earnest.

This project, heavily sponsored by SD Corporation.

The project was titled , and the basic premise was very simple.

It was to gather Dong-su hyung’s attack squad, who almost raided the Apocalypse Dragon, a month earlier to help them regain their game sense so they could successfully raid without any mistakes.

If we failed, SD Corporation’s plans would be significantly disrupted, so they were very supportive of my suggestions.

On a particularly cold winter day.

I was drinking cocoa with Na-young at the Luna Capsule Cafe run by her father, President Lee.

Of course, next to me, Dong-su hyung, who had arrived early, was drinking coffee with a slightly worried expression.

“What’s making you so nervous? We all gathered together for the commercial shoot last time, didn’t we?”

“That’s true. But you saw it too, right? Things weren’t great, and there were a few mistakes.”

We had gathered once before to shoot a commercial.

Indeed, some of them made mistakes that shouldn’t have happened back then.

But I wasn’t too worried.

There is a saying in both sports and e-sports.

Form is temporary, but class is eternal.

I believed in the skills of the team members who were with me before.

They were the best players in , and their skills had just become a bit rusty.

If we tightened and polished them, they were the ones who could shine more brilliantly than anyone else.

That’s why we arranged this meeting today.

To inject sharpness back into those who had lost it.

“A large-scale medieval combat simulation game, Knight and Blade. It doesn’t have special abilities like Gaia Online, but it should help regain the feel of using weapons.”

SD Corporation rented hotel rooms for Dong-su hyung’s attack squad for a month.

One room per person.

There were 12 members living in the provinces, and adding those who found it hard to travel to Gwangmyeong City, they rented a total of 28 rooms.

It was very easy because it was a subsidiary of the Seongdo Group.

We just rented a nearby hotel run by Sung-woo hyung’s sister.

This is why it’s convenient when the parent company is a large corporation.

“Knight and Blade… It’s perfect for large-scale battles.”

“We also considered World of Battle, but since it’s a shooting game, we thought it wouldn’t be much help.”

“Getting the team coordination right comes first, right?”

“Yes.”

World of Battle, which we had played before, was also a game where 40 people formed a company and fought, but the tempo was too fast for team coordination.

Moreover, the weapons used were firearms.

It wasn’t very helpful for our training.

“Are you going to broadcast today?”

“Of course. I’m planning to recruit the opposing team from the viewers.”

The game we were going to play today, , was a game that realistically depicted medieval battles.

From knights we are familiar with to crossbowmen and heavy infantry.

A game where each role was divided and fought against the opponent.

Originally, it was a game where you created your kingdom and conquered the world, but after transitioning to the VR version, it had a custom mode that focused only on battles.

This game also had a long history.

While Dong-su hyung and I were talking about this and that, the team members began to gather in the capsule room one by one.

“Hey, Dong-su!”

“Hyung.”

“Wow, the hotel was amazing. I almost lost it.”

Starting with the rough Gyeongsang dialect,

“Oh, Dong-su.”

To the blond foreigners.

Team members with various unique personalities gathered one by one.

We had rented the entire capsule room for today.

There was no problem since I had taken good care of President Lee, and we just needed to work hard to regain our skills here.

Once all the team members had gathered, Dong-su hyung stood up and spoke to everyone.

“Thank you all for taking the time to gather despite your busy schedules. As Chan-sik already mentioned, we plan to steadily regain our senses by playing various games for a month starting today. During non-gaming hours, feel free to go out or drink.”

It wasn’t a dormitory-like system at all.

We decided to play games for about 4 hours a day.

The rest of the time, the team members needed their own time too.

This wasn’t the military, and a reasonable amount of freedom had to be given.

I followed up on Dong-su hyung’s words.

“Since it’s our first practice today, we’ll broadcast it, but don’t feel too pressured.”

“Don’t worry.”

“Hey, don’t you remember? We’re all attention seekers!”

“Heh heh, we’ve been with Dong-su since he was a rookie. Do you think we’re afraid of broadcasting?”

Come to think of it, these team members must have been the main contributors to Dong-su hyung’s success.

Still, it would be good to apologize to them once more before starting.

What I did was something that had crushed their dreams.

“Before we start… I’m really sorry again…”

“Hey!”

“We all forgave you already!”

“If you feel so sorry, just buy us meat and drinks later!”

However, the reactions I got were full of annoyance.

……These are really good people.

After a few awkward coughs, I immediately started the broadcast.

Filming drones started floating in the air, and soon the chat started to appear.

-Evil-ha

-Shah-ha

-Wow, are they the legendary Kan attack squad?

-Their aura is no joke

-What game are they playing today?

-Info) Our Evil already said on Twipod that he would be doing content with viewers.

As always, the chat was bustling.

I watched it for a while and then asked one of the Gyeongsang dialect hyungs who was looking at the chat with interest behind me to greet them.

Then the hyung looked straight at the filming drone and said boldly.

“Hey! You bastards! I’m here.”

Sometimes you need to give a different taste like this.

Don’t you agree?

“As I mentioned, I’ve prepared viewer participation content. If you’re experienced in and have decent skills, apply. We’ll be selecting participants by automatic lottery, so if you’re late, you won’t be able to join. Got it?”

Among the numerous viewer applications, the attack squad content began in earnest.

2.

Thanks to the many viewer participants, the viewers who would be opposing us quickly gathered, and we could enter the battlefield right away.

.

It was undoubtedly a diverse game where you could command a huge number of troops and engage in battles, and enjoy large-scale PVP like now.

Originally, it was a game where the units were quite significant, but those units were restricted to prepare for the raid.

As prearranged, Dong-su hyung and I composed the troop types.

Those in the tank role were heavy infantry with shields.

Those in the melee DPS role were berserkers with huge two-handed swords.

The ranged DPS were crossbowmen and archers.

The healers were medics.

We finished organizing this much and immediately jumped into the battle.

To truly enjoy this game, it’s important to form formations, but victory wasn’t what we needed.

It was just about regaining the feel.

Some of our raid members hadn’t played virtual reality games in quite a while, so it was most important to help them regain their sense of the game.

Getting the team coordination right was the priority.

I lightly nodded and immediately looked toward the opposing side.

The viewer team was selected solely from players with at least six months of experience.

Judging from the chat, there seemed to be many veteran players among them.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Isn’t that the game’s notorious veteran with the greatsword?

-ㅇㅇ He’s the guy who hunts down streamers in their broadcasts.

-ㅉㅉ Why do guys like that even play games? Aren’t they just massacring noobs?

-Exactlyㅋㅋ

-I see a lot of familiar names other than him too.

This game had a lot of enthusiasts from the start.

Having a lot of enthusiasts meant there were many veteran players as well.

But our raid wasn’t particularly worried.

We didn’t have to desperately strive for victory.

We just needed to enjoy and adapt to the game.

That was all I wanted from our raid members. After ended, many raid members returned to reality to make a living.

No one could blame them.

Their youth had been devoted to gaming, but none of them regretted it here.

If they had any regrets, they wouldn’t have come here in the first place.

What I wanted to give them was simply the joy of gaming.

As I watched the viewers’ troops slowly approach, I spoke to our raid members.

“Just play comfortably. It’s fine if we lose.”

Everyone laughed heartily at my words and then rushed towards the enemies who had already approached us.

Actually, I hadn’t given any basic instructions about this game.

Chaeeeeng!

However, soon after.

An unexpected result began to emerge.

The first to start the battle at the forefront was Huh-soo, wielding a massive claymore.

As far as I knew, this game was Huh-soo’s first time, yet he began to perform incredible feats.

Every time Huh-soo swung his sword, the enemies were torn apart.

Chaeeeeng!

Moreover, whenever the enemies targeted Huh-soo with their swords, Dong-su hyung, who had chosen the heavy infantry class, effectively blocked the attacks with his shield.

It wasn’t just Dong-su hyung.

All the players in our raid who played as tanks began to obstruct the enemies’ attacks as if it had been prearranged.

It was more instinctive than intentional.

The boss monster attacks in were much faster than this.

Of course, the players’ physical abilities were also far superior in , but they had basic gaming sense.

-????????????

-Who are these people?

-??????

-Is this really their first time playing this game?

-Wow, look at those parries.

-Using the shield so sexily.

-Nyanggae is running around like a mad dogㅋㅋ

The viewers’ reactions were filled with astonishment.

I felt the same way.

I didn’t participate in the battle; I just took a step back and watched the battlefield.

Simultaneous battles were happening all over the place.

Our team effortlessly handled the attacks from veteran enemies and swiftly counterattacked.

Only then did I realize once again.

The 40 people I gathered today weren’t just gamers.

They were the ones who had reached the pinnacle of a game once.

People who had stood at the top of a legendary game that captivated the world.

No matter how much time had passed or how rusty they had become.

The experience from those days didn’t just vanish.

I grinned widely.

Maybe a much better result than I had expected was waiting for us.
