Chapter 22: Chapter 22 – Curious Streamer
The Knighted Lobby was filled with many people on weekend nights as people didn't need to work and wanted to have fun. It boasted considerable traffic with users and streamers.
Random posts kept appearing on the forum, usually featuring big streamers who managed to gain achievement, tips and tricks, and someone who found a new route.
A big-time streamer with an average of 20K viewers, Flexy, tried to find some information about tips and tricks to win the program he was invited to by the Knight's Journey's marketing team. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
He wanted to find StoneSword's video on the forum and learn from it. Not only that, but he also wanted to create an ideal plan to clear the stage as fast as he could with a newbie who was potentially not that good at the game.
However, everyone on the forum constantly mentioned the same user today.
"Who is this Breeze?"
The top to the fifth post mentioned the same name but with a different title.
[Look at my butt! Huh Ah knight got kicked on the butt by Breeze!]
[Slapping Hutch! Breeze causing the system error lolol]
[Front spin and split in half! First managed to solo Trouser the Thrower, Breeze!]
[No one can doubt Breeze's skill!]
[Breeze's wall run and analysis]
Flexy caressed his chin in wonder. He opened the thread, and saying that he was surprised to the point he jumped from the bench wasn't an overstatement.
'This guy is nuts!'
The first video Flexy watched was the wall run and three-sixty axe spin. He was impressed by the movement and the fact he could pull such moves, not just one, but many times. That meant Breeze didn't pull it out of luck, but due to his skill!
Flexy proceeded to the other threads and watched all the videos. He couldn't help but grin when he saw Breeze slap Hutch and kick Huh Ah knight.
'Good job!'
Just like everyone else, he was also a victim to those people. So he was pretty satisfied when he watched someone else manage to exact the victims' revenge against those two knights.
At the end of the thread, the link to Breeze's link was attached. Flexy found it and curiously clicked on it, bringing him to Punch's website.
"Oh? He's live streaming now?"
Flexy crossed his legs and rested his chin on his hand, smiling softly. He was interested in how Breeze played live and how many viewers he got.
"Damn, 500 viewers?" He exclaimed in surprise, "And this is his second day streaming? Yoo! This guy has crazy growth! He's even faster than me in newbie days!"
And so, Flexy returned to his speedrun's research.

Meanwhile, Max was currently in the middle of chaos, surrounded by barbarians' army in the second main story he got.
Brandishing his rare axe in his right hand and a crude one in his left, he roared loudly.
"Come, barbarians! Give me your blood!
— Blood!
— Blood blood blood!
— Our axes crave blood!!
— Hyahaaa!! Let him again, guys! He's planning to massacre them all!
Max was really motivated. The reason was clear. It was because he got another mission from his viewers.
[Bloodsucker has started a mission.]
[Stream Mission: Kill every barbarian in the army.]
[Reward: 100 diamonds per kill.]
Five minutes had passed since he got this mission and advanced toward the barbarians' army. And currently, Breeze's kill count had reached 12.
This was Max's chance to fill the system quest's progress. He still needed more than 30K diamonds to finish it and get the B-Grade nutritional supplement he badly needed.
"Lemme suck all those diam– I mean blood until you have none! I will kill at least 100... No, 200 barbarians today!"
— Please stop!
— Hahaha! This guy is crying.
— Rest in peace, money.
— Only money can make Breeze get this motivated.
— We will remember you, Bloodsucker.
— I want to be Breeze
— ^^ Dream on!
— ^^ I will
