CH 4

Heejae paused for a moment, perhaps because of my words. He then jumped high on the wall. And in that next moment, the high-flying character began to fall towards me with clenched fists above his head.

I knew it was an attack that would make me lose half of my HP if I were to take a hit like this, but I held on to my position.

Crush Attack.

Water Hold. 

Pow! My field of vision turned red with the sound effect. I stumbled backward after being hit on the shoulder and nearly collapsed. As expected, half of my HP was also blown away.

However, thanks to not avoiding it, I was able to hold Heejae’s body firmly with the water stream. I pressed the R key with Shin Heejae fixed in the position.

Just like in the Clan Room, I used my ultimate skill, [Paranoma]. Of course, this time it wasn’t just an effect.

Boom―!

With that loud noise, a huge wave appeared in the stadium. It was as if a tsunami were rushing in. It hit Heejae’s body and he crashed into the wall. Heejae then flew to the wall and crashed into it.

[Heejae: lololololololol]

[Heejae: ah ☆☆ i’m so embarrassed LOLOL]

Then he jumped high again. 

I didn’t understand if that Heejae bastard was provoking me or was stupid, but anyway, it was a perfect chance for me. It gave me a perfect chance

The fact that you can’t change your posture once you’re in the air was a basic of the basics in PVP. I used [Water Arrow] again to shoot water arrows.

However…

Flash 

To my surprise, he suddenly disappeared from view.

In addition, only a second later, the screen began to turn red again. It meant that my character was seriously damaged.

I rolled forward, judging that his attack came from behind. As expected, with a sound effect that cuts the wind, Heejae’s hand flew past my character.

[Heejae: pft lolol]

Besides, Heejae was still strangely relaxed, so I tried to block his approach by putting [Waterballs] all over me because I didn’t have a clue what kind of move he would try to use next.

“Fuck, I didn’t think you’d use Flash there…” 

I didn’t know that Heejae would act so boldly with just 1 space of HP remaining.

If I were him, I would try to widen the distance between us, not narrow it down. It was hard to keep my composure in a style of play that was bold and out of my capacity.

Then, Shin Heejae used [Acceleration] once again as if he was ignoring the [Waterball] trap I had laid down. I aimed [Water Arrow] at the guy who was running, probably out of a loss.

“How are you going to avoid it here?” 

It looked like he was running without any countermeasures, but I thought he was acting like that because there was something I was missing.

In the end, I couldn’t resist the pressure and stepped back. However, that was my defeat. As soon as I got out of the [Waterball] range, Shin Heejae jumped high as if he was waiting.

I used [Water Arrow] too late, but our distance was already very close. The aim of [Water Arrow], which was sent in haste, missed, and I was struggling in the air as my neck was caught by Heejae’s hand.

[Heejae: ㅇ_ㅇ noona is really…] 

[Heejae: you totally chickened out]

[Heejae: how cute lol]

I wanted to curse at him. As I trembled with anger since I felt like shit.

But… 

Crack―!

[You’ve been defeated.]

Before I could even send a reply my neck was snapped and thrown away. Just like that, I… lost to Heejae again after a year.

I felt miserable. 

After that incident, I was disappointed and did not go into the game for several days. No matter how much I think about it, it was because I was so upset since it was a game that could have been won if I had properly used [Water Arrow] at the end.

“Shin Heejae, please die…!”

I was suddenly contacted by Hyejin when I was busy walking back and forth in my room. Surges of murderous intent were flaring up inside me.

[Hyejin: oppa] 

[Hyejin: this is you, right?]

[Hyejin: the skill pattern and timing were totally you]

[Hyejin: (Link)]

[Hyejin: ?] 

The preview of the link sent by Hyejin was ridiculously on Shin Heejae’s YouTube channel. I was sendingsent Hyejin a reply [You… see this?], but I froze when I saw the thumbnail of the video.

[HeejaeTV] I was educated by a beginner.

105,431 views

In the thumbnail of the video with such a title, my character, Sesam, was drawn in 2D, and it was a pose of stepping on the waist of a similarly 2D drawn character of Heejae. Moreover, the number of views had already exceeded 100,000.

I played the video as if I was possessed. As expected, the video was a recording of the PVP I did in [Bloody Lane] with Heejae. 

My play on Heejae’s screen was pretty neat and well-edited. In addition, the scene where Heejae catches and kills me at the end was exquisitely edited, making it seem like the match was won at the same time.

Actually, I was robbed, but in this video, I was the main character, not Shin Heejae. And as the video intended, the hundreds of comments below were mostly praising my play.

I was reading the comments zealously and came to my senses only after pressing the ‘like’ button on the last comment. It was mainly because I didn’t know what to say to Hyejin. 

I had sarcastically asked Hyejin if she was crazy because she started [Arcadia] again. But there I was, appearing in a video with Heejae, as if I were a friend……. Something that was impossible had been done.

I hurriedly sent a reply to Hyejin.

[Me: no… well that’s]

[Me: i had raised a new account and started a party with some new kids] 

[Me: no, i was fooled too fuck!! if i had known that it was that heejae bastard’s clan, i would have never joined in the first place]

[Hyejin: please speak calmly, oppa]

[Me: yeah…]

As usual, I was rambling in a disorganized manner, but only after receiving Hyejin’s virtual pats was I able to slowly explain what had happened a few days ago. 

Anyway, at first, Hyejin seemed to listen quietly, but then she really started to laugh like crazy every time I said a word.

[Me: you think it’s funny?]

[Hyejin: no but lololl why does he call you noona?]

[Me: because my character is female;;] 

[Hyejin: lololololololol]

[Hyejin: this bastard lolol is he crazy enough to have a crush on you? no but seriously even yesterday that fucker lol

[Hyejin: all of a sudden, asked if anyone knows “sesam?” on the ‘megaphone’ and then turned it off lol]

[Hyejin: i was wondering what he was up to but as soon as i saw the PVP video i knew it was you lol i was so surprised] 

[Me: he was looking for me?]

[Hyejin: mhm! he used the ‘megaphone’ 10 times a day]

Hearing Hyejin’s words, I wondered what the hell Heejae was up to. When I saw that the way the video was edited was friendly towards me, there seemed to be no ill feelings. Rather it made the two of us look… intimate.

In the meantime, Hyejin’s playful words suddenly began to dig their way into my head. 

[Hyejin: anyone who sees it would know he’s in love lol]

[Hyejin: oppa, why don’t you just go out with him and rob all his items lolol]

I knew it was a joke, but it felt like my head was on fire.

Of course, that didn’t mean that I’d want to date the real Shin Heejae. But, when I heard Hyejin’s words, I suddenly remembered what happened in the clan I made. 

There were various types of people in [Youngil], a clan that I had created and the one Heejae destroyed. There Some were good people, but there were also quite a few people who were just as bad as Shin Heejae.

And the one I just thought of was Yatta who was a villain among those kinds. A yeomisae. Literally a woman-who is a crazy bastard, it reminded me of how this bastard had been badly suffered because of netkama.
