I Regressed But The World Didn’T Fall Apart 38

Transcendent Hunter’s Streaming -38-

038.

-Oh

-Caught you

-Oh, we meet again

-Kyah, finally!

“hehehe.”

The Dark Girl chuckled softly.

Finally, the stage was set for her.

Days ago, after ‘that chat,’ how long had she been waiting for this moment!

How much suffering had she endured until this moment arrived!

[3 wins 8 losses]

This pitiful number represented her record from yesterday.

A dismal 27% win rate.

She even suffered 6 consecutive defeats.

She met Anatole right after turning it around, then faced Tsuki who once vied for the top spot with Anatole on the world stage, followed by Mariotte, Beyond, and other top Korean players, before ultimately encountering Anatole again.

Defeat, defeat… and more defeat.

Just an endless series of humiliations.

At that moment, she felt as though she was back on the World Championship quarterfinals stage during her prime.

Looking around at the cooking, it was an unknowable situation with only a master.

It was natural for her to suffer a 6-game losing streak.

“But… who am I?”

However, today was different.

The her of now was not the her of yesterday who had suffered a 6-game losing streak.

After the humiliation of yesterday, she awakened like a ghost.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Great Sword Hee!

-Ah, isn’t it Hee, who almost defeated Anatol in the quarterfinals of the World Championships?

[5 wins 1 loss]

An impressive win rate of 87%!

Truly a transcendental rise.

“Are you still almost defeating Anatol? Hoho. Then who was the opponent I defeated just now?”

-God Natol!

-Who, who defeated Anatol?

-Wow, you defeated Anatol? Hee is on fire!

-Finally, achieved a total record of 1 win 18 losses!

-Your record is pitiful, lol.

-Oh, that’s a fact ban.

Even just now, she was the one who had defeated Anatol.

After a close match leaving each other with about half an HP bar, she emerged victorious.

“It’s not just a victory. That’s right. I am the mysterious girl who ended Anatol’s 18-game winning streak!”

After turning off the broadcast yesterday, she entered the insult-filled ranked match, showcasing an unbelievable form, Anatol, who had recorded 17 consecutive wins so far.

He had proudly placed his main account at the top of the rankings, and it was the mysterious girl who thwarted his 18th consecutive win.

Of course, the fact that Anatol had won 17 games in a row since yesterday’s broadcast led to one speculation.

-Did Anatol not sleep at all then? Dang.

-Must have been exhausted, lol.

-Shh.

Considering his broadcast time, the reasonable speculation was that he didn’t even sigh and played ranked matches 17 times, so he must have been extremely tired.

“Still, a win is a win!”

One, such trivial matters were not important to the current mysterious girl.

Moreover, excluding the victory against (sleep-deprived) Anatol, today she had a record of 4 wins and 1 loss.

These victories were achieved even among the bizarre career professionals she encountered.

-You’re doing well today, lol.

-For real, the rare Mysterious Girl mode that comes once every three years.

-(Info) She really came once during a pro match.

-hahahaha lol.

In the chat window, there were those who mocked her, but those were just the words of the ignorant.

Where would the Ultimate Fighter, who was beyond ordinary levels, be now?

The current state of chaos was a scene of utter confusion, as chaotic as chaos itself could be.

And all of this was happening right before her eyes because of the opponent standing in front of her.

“Your evil deeds end here! Maduye!”

Grand Madu, [Hmgeujeongdungga].

Due to his misdeeds, the principles of the martial world had fallen to the ground.

He could truly be considered the mastermind behind all these events.

-What’s she doing alone?

-Another martial arts outbreak?

-Just go along with it hahahaha

-hahahaha, it’s not for nothing that he was nicknamed ‘Sword Hee’

-Oh, you want to do this kind of thing~

Anatol, the greatest in the martial world and the era.

He had faced the mysterious Grand Madu and been defeated five times in martial combat, and the fact that the extraordinary Grand Madu had insulted Anatol, the greatest in the martial world, and trampled on the pride of the martial world had spread far and wide through the Tuogyu Battle Language.

Upon hearing this news, all sorts of old monsters who had not died in the deep mountains and valleys vowed never to set foot in the martial world again. But they broke that vow and returned to the martial world.

Now, the absolute masters who dreamed of taking the place of Anatol, who had become the greatest of the era by defeating the once greatest Anatol, Grand Madu [Hmgeujeongdungga], were swelling with the desire to break him by their hands.

“That cannot be allowed.”

But they couldn’t just leave the chaotic martial world as it was, with those absolute masters standing alone in the world.

It couldn’t be allowed.

There was someone else who was more fitting for that.

If not them, then who?

“It’s me-“

Everyone thought the trend was the Iron Fist of the island across the sea, abandoning the martial world they had once belonged to and leaving for a new martial world. Yet, she returned to her homeland, guarding the Ultimate Fighter category alone and even enduring the situation of 300 heroes [300 viewers watching the category like a failing game lol], a true guardian of the martial world with a real meaning,······

“-I will stand in the sky.”

She had to stand on the throne.

-Wow

-Hee’s skills are no joke

-Grand Hee!

-Sis, I’m on your side

That was the right thing to do.

That was justice.

It was the only way to restore the martial world’s pride that had been shaken.

-Don’t lose the martial world! Don’t lose Sword Hee!

-That’s right~

-The unique guardian of the martial world, Sword Maiden!

[Ready-]

With both sides prepared, the match was about to begin.

“Hmgeujeongdungga… I will stop you!”

The Sword Maiden said in a determined tone, withdrawing her hand that had been brushing her face.

At the same time, she stared directly at Ido Hyuk.

Thanks to that, the chat window was out of sight.

– Pyo, Daesanghyuk is here.

– He’s young, but his taste is really old.

– Huh.

– Isn’t it over yet?

– Seems like it just ended ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

– Damn, it’s hard to counter Fan Haymeok.

– Seriously ㅋㅋㅋ

Finally, the viewers of the Dark Girl, who began chatting in my heart.

“······”

‘Broadcasting.. is done like that.’

Watching the one-man show of that Dark Girl in the front row, Lee Dohyuk thought.

He wasn’t making fun, but genuinely admired.

The Dark Girl who, despite being right in front of him, didn’t pay any attention and instead waved her hand in the air or struck strange poses while chatting alone.

Truly the figure of a true professional broadcaster.

It felt like the first day Ji-an and he had a joint broadcast, and she was acting cute towards the viewers in front of her older brother.

‘Impressive. I may not need to learn from her.. but.’

Isn’t that a bit embarrassing?

Anyway.

[Preparation Complete]

The main character, the Dark Girl, picked the character of the Black Knight, Harang.

She smiled upon seeing Lee Dohyuk’s character.

He chose Night Combat, Hoken.

‘I knew you’d pick that.’

Up to this point, it was as she had expected.

‘He’s been using Hoken for a few days now.’

The past match history of [Hmgeujeongdoongga], which he could confirm thanks to becoming friends.

He had been using Hoken exclusively for some time.

Even in the 5 matches he played against Anatol, he always brought out Hoken, and in his recent rank game history, there was no character other than Hoken.

And after checking the replays.

After watching all the matches he played over the past few days several times, the Dark Girl could be sure.

[Hmgeujeongdoongga] is a remarkable player.

It’s not deniable, nor was there ever a thought to deny it in the first place.

Perhaps his pure physical abilities might even surpass the peak Anatol.

‘But he’s not a skilled player in Alpha.’

Actually, it still seems somewhat unbelievable, but only after watching all the opponent’s replays could the Dark Girl realize this fact.

The speculation of people that [Hmgeujeongdoongga] was a top-tier gamer in Alpha who awakened and switched to a sub-character after long closed-door training was all wrong.

I don’t know how that could be possible, but… that guy is an unskilled player in Alpha.

‘He’s in no rush, as such.’

The playstyle of [Hmgeujeongdoongga] that the Dark Girl grasped was quick and decisive.

He doesn’t excel in play centered around forcing Easy choices or making gradual gains from HP through chip damage, nor does he try to induce the opponent to miss attacks through continuous evasion and counters.

What he aims for is a swift and decisive attack!

Rushing in aggressively, striking like a storm, not just passively defending against the opponent’s strikes but instead tearing through with his own attacks, willing to sacrifice his flesh to break bones.

Even before the exploration phase, he is so aggressively inclined that he engages in close combat rather than from a distance.

“I’ve figured it out… Your pattern…!”

In reality, he said that, but not really about the pattern.

It’s a taunt to provoke the opponent.

To be honest, while the opponent’s patterns are diverse, due to their excessive variety, he hasn’t fully grasped them yet.

Time was also scarce.

To analyze the opponent’s pattern in this short time, one would have to be like Anatol, famous for analysis since his pro days.

But after countless replays, she discovered something.

Not just Hoken, but when using other characters, there was a common trait that [hmm, somewhat like that] showed.

In other words, a kind of habit.

And in a tactical game like Elpha, habits are vulnerabilities.

[Fight-!]

Swish!

This vulnerability will be your downfall!

As the game began, the Dark Girl immediately leaped back, creating distance.

Whoosh-!

And then came Hoken’s charging move.

The opponent swiftly closing the distance.

Just as she expected!

“Hmph.”

The Dark Girl forced her rising tail of a smile back down.

It wasn’t time to smile yet.

The moment she truly laughs is when all her predictions come true!

‘Here it comes!’

But that moment hadn’t arrived yet.

The Dark Girl lowered her stance.

In a defensive posture, Hoken pushed deeper inward.

Clang!

Her sword intercepted the opponent’s outstretched leg.

For a moment, her hand tingled.

But the Dark Girl didn’t hesitate.

She unleashed a lightning-fast sword strike.

The opponent dodged lightly, slipping away.

‘As expected.’

A planned feint.

It was risky to aim for a direct hit on the opponent rushing in here.

Even if the opponent gave up their flesh, they would aim for the bones.

Whoosh-

From Noble mtl dot com

A piercing blow shot out once again.

The dark girl’s sword, flawless and devoid of any excess, was thrust.

Surrounded by dark flames, Hoken charged forward.

Her sharp sword cut through the crimson wave.

Kaahh!

Her sword strike was blocked by Hoken’s gauntlet.

But it didn’t end there.

The following punch targeted her chin.

But it was okay.

She had anticipated this as well, thanks to Anatole, who had been the same up until now.

Snick-

The dark girl’s lips momentarily twitched.

It was a moment to express gratitude to Anatole.

They had turned the tides of their fight many times.

That’s why she knew.

“Step back.”

Anatole’s response in the same situation now.

To slightly step back, buying time to respond to the opponent.

That was Anatole’s solution.

But it wasn’t the right answer.

Hence, her solution was different.

“Step forward.”

The dark girl’s foot extended forward.

One step further.

Because she knew.

What attitude [Hmmm] would adopt in this situation.

Whoosh!

As she expected, the opponent’s fist swung into thin air.

As the fist was thrown, in that very moment.

“Now!”

It was the dark girl’s step forward for this moment.

“The side… is open!”

The habit [Hmmm] found by the dark girl.

A common trait shown when playing Hoken, when playing Steve, or when using a close combat character without a weapon.

The opponent’s habit.

In other words… a gap.

“It appeared..! The gap’s thread!”

The black girl’s sword was thrust.

Thud!

A dull sound echoed.

“..Huh?”

It wasn’t the sound of being stabbed by the sword···

It was the sound of something blocking the blade···

“What?”

Judging from the sound, it seemed to be a gauntlet or armor.

But she couldn’t confirm what it was.

In the blink of an eye, a fist filled her view,

Thunk!

Because it had already arrived at her.

Ido-hyuk’s fist struck the black girl’s temple directly.

Though there might be no pain, there was a suffocating pressure.

Once again, Ido-hyuk’s fist approached.

Crack!

The black girl’s body flew backward.

– Huh? What gap’s thread is this?

– I don’t see anything, do you?

– What’s going on? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

– Dunno

Thwack!

Followed by Hoken’s charging attack.

– Huff.. Did you see ‘that defeat’.. just me?

– Everyone must have seen it, right..?

The black girl hurriedly moved her legs.

Her long experience signaled that she would hit the wall like this.

If so, there was still a chance for a turnaround.

Thud!

Kicking back, the black girl hit the wall.

A sword slash was sent from her hand.

Pak!

But Ido-hyuk evaded her final decisive blow with a slight tilt of his head.

Without any tricks or changes, his foot extended swiftly.

Thud!

The black girl collided with the wall.

Followed by an unrelenting series of strikes.

Kicked, punched, body bent at the knees.

‘Why was Anatol smiling···’

A conversation between Anatol, briefly hidden by the broadcast screen.

The image of Anatol, chuckling at the mention of finding a flaw in [Hm-Gu-Jeong-Dun-Ga], reminded me of the dark girl.

I wondered back then why she acted like that, but now I understand.

‘A monster.. isn’t it?’

Her speculation from the previous match.

As if there was a monster who could react in real-time to the opponent’s movements without a standardized pattern.

Such an absurd monster existed in the world.

[Defeat]

And the notification of defeat.

The sword strike released just before hitting the final wall.

It grazed past the opponent’s ear, narrowly avoiding a perfect defeat.

-O

-Kya

-‘That defeat’ didn’t happen!

-Great Sword Hee!

-Kekekekekeksbkkekeke

-Oh, kekekeke, is it okay to like not losing perfectly?

-Oh, but you’ve grown, let’s have a drink~

Should I laugh at this, or should I cry?

“······”

For now, the dark girl felt like crying.
