I Regressed But The World Didn’T Fall Apart 54

Return to the World Without Ruin -54-

054.

Even if you don’t know every spot, you should know your own spot.

For nearly three days, Ido Hyuk, who had shaken up the rankings and all related communities and forums, left the Ultimate Fighter.

But fortunately, there was a rising star ready to take his place.

“Hmm, Ultimate Fighter? I’ll give it a try.”

A monstrous presence from Alpa, wielding a formidable defense.

A divine figure that appeared like a comet.

It was Ji An Chu.

“Hyuit-!”

A battle cry that would drain the listener’s strength.

Swish-

And a result befitting the draining battle cry.

Barely extended legs slicing through the air.

Due to insufficient speed, the opponent easily dodged.

-Wow.

-Did they dodge that?

-Insane skills.

-An unmatched opponent.

Chatters expressing surprise at the sight.

“Ugh!”

Once again, Ji An’s leg extended.

But this time, it wasn’t just extending.

A momentary blaze erupted from her leg.

Whoosh-

A fiery strike aimed at the opponent.

However, the outcome was somewhat weakened.

Thud!

A kick easily blocked with a single guard.

-Kya.

– Light a fire?

– Finally, a new believer. DD

– Blood doesn’t come out, you know~

However, the chat room was surprised by her attack once again.

It was hard to tell if they were surprised or joking.

Of course, it was a joke.

[TIME UP]

How much time has passed?

A sign indicating that all the time set for the match in Daejeon had elapsed appeared.

[DRAW]

Following that, a draw was announced.

“Phew… It was a tough fight.”

Jian wiped her forehead as she spoke.

Even though she might not have broken a sweat, she somehow felt like she had shed a lot of real sweat.

– Seriously lol

– Truly an intense battle DD

– The one who can’t be hit vs. The one who can’t be missed

– Is this fight for real?

The chat room enthusiastically responded to her.

It was a rare and intense spectacle that was hard to come by anywhere.

[Current Viewers: 1,314]

Especially for the majority of the 1,300 viewers, it was even more so.

When had they ever seen something like this?

The opponent she had been facing until a moment ago was none other than a training dummy for the tutorial in Ultimate Fighter.

In other words, Jian had been engaging in a tough fight with a dummy that only had basic evasion and guard functions, with no attacking abilities.

And the result was a draw!

A person who records a draw with a training dummy for the tutorial.

It might sound contradictory, but if such a person existed, they were definitely not human.

Ding-

[‘Eolakgui94’ has donated 1,000 won.]

– Wow, I can’t stand it, seriously, can’t do anything properly;

Eventually, someone couldn’t bear it any longer and blurted out.

“······?”

– Oops

– Oh dear

– DD

At that moment, Jian’s expression changed.

“Huh? Did I mishear..?”

Tilting her head slightly, Jian spoke like that, the unbeatable champion in her own broadcast, Jian Chu, even if she might be the worst in Ultimate Fighter!

She immediately checked the chat history of Eol-Akgwi94.

Eol-Akgwi94: Whoa;

Eol-Akgwi94: Ahh

Eol-Akgwi94: This is f***ed up

Eol-Akgwi94: (Gulp) (Gulp)

Eol-Akgwi94: Seriously, hmm ㅋㅋ;

“Hmm..?”

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-You endured a lot

-Is that guy a masochist? ㅋㅋㅋ

Nevertheless, traces of Eol-Akgwi94 trying to endure were evident in his past chat history.

But unlike that Eol-Akgwi94, Jian couldn’t hold back.

“Yeah, goodbye.”

[Jianchu has forcibly ejected Eol-Akgwi94]

-Oh, my goodnessㅠㅠㅠ

-Oh.. They left···

Viewers shedding tears at the sublime sacrifice.

How beautiful is the figure of one who departed for speaking the truth.

He may have left, but the noble spirit he left behind will linger in the hearts of the viewers.

Of course, not everyone wanted to vomit after watching Jian’s play.

-Whyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I find it amusing

-For realㅋㅋ Such a mess

-They really messed upㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-It’s fascinating how they keep missing the timing despite having full correctionㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I’m a true Eol-Akgwi, but Jianchu’s broadcast is enjoyable ㅇㅇ

-Oh.. I messed up..

-I’m a 0-kill in Eolpa, but in the broadcast, a whopping 34 kills?!

-34 loyal viewers..

There’s a unique charm even in clumsy play.

Wherever you go, peculiar tastes are bound to exist.

Ultimate Fighter and Iron Fist.

One had been a game of longevity, while the other rose to the ranks of blockbuster games.

However, both ultimately were fighting games.

Naturally, a considerable overlap existed among their user bases.

Of course, given that Iron Fist was relatively more newbie-friendly, many Iron Fist users hadn’t tried Eolpa.

Yet, at least one-third of the IF users were former Eolpa gamers.

[They’re hereㅏㅏㅏㅏㅏ!]

From Noble mtl dot com

[Breaking News) Dohyuk’s IF ON]

As a result, once Dohyuk’s broadcast went live, news related to him naturally swept through various Iron Fist communities.

From the start, Ido Hyuk’s presence was not only loud in the Elfap Community but also in the Iron Fist communities.

In the Iron Fist community, they had refrained from talking about Iron Fist as a principle, but now, there’s no reason to hold back.

(Record of Achievements.jpg)

Wow hahahahaha damn, hahahahaha, ssss

I knew this would happen, so I saved the last slot for a sniper shot.

The feeling when the shot hits is insane.

-Wow

-Is that a doppelganger hahahahaha, were you in the gallery?

-What’s there to brag about a sniper shot; are you crazy?

-If you envy, it’s all good.

-It’s all good.

-You damn bastard.

-I’m so damn jealous.

[I met a real master of the game]

Is all this glory necessary?

I’ve used up a year’s worth of luck.

[Update on Dohyuk]

Casually on a 10-game winning streak hahahahaha

[Met Dosen-sensei and can’t even catch my breath]

Just insanely good, it’s unbelievable. I’ve seen a lot in the gallery, even fought with Myeolshin, but… Dohyuk-sensei will dominate the Apifan from now on, I can bet my balls on it.

-Hmm… Is this for real?

-Still, took a lot of screenshots hahahahaha.

-So jealous.

-Damn hahahahaha getting hit with a V-sign, what’s up with that?

Iron Fist users who post in various ways.

Among them, the most popular were the posts where users met Ido Hyuk in an online match.

Similar to believers sharing their testimonies after meeting a god.

[A streamer named Ido Hyuk..]

Hmm… Is it really that good?

-Damn hahahahaha, can’t tell if it’s genuine praise or sarcasm.

-For real, hahahahaha.

-HeeeUUUMM

-Why is everyone going crazy like that?

Saying Elfap is good means Apifan is good too, that’s true, but

If Elfap is a high-level player, then Apifan is too, that’s nonsense, right? It hasn’t been proven?

These crazy Elfap guys acting up now are beyond comprehension.

-ㅋㅋ

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Don’t you get it? We felt the same way.

-Three days ago, when we thought about the Egallers, it was hilarious.ㅋㅋㅋ

ㄴThat’s hilarious.

Of course, there were some skeptics.

Pure Iron Fist users who had never watched Ido Hyuk’s broadcast or played Ultimate Fighter.

From their perspective, they couldn’t understand why the community was making such a fuss just because one top Egaller had joined.

Although there were successful pros like Anatol and Beyond who had settled in Iron Fist, not all Egall pros had followed that path.

During the Egall era, there were cases where pros who used to hear top-notch sounds in Egall ended up with mediocre skills in Iron Fist, or those who didn’t receive much attention in Egall showed skills in Iron Fist comparable to Anatol and Beyond.

“Why are they acting like this?”

It wasn’t just the regular users who had such thoughts.

Akuma, the current pro gamer of Iron Fist, was highly skeptical of this presence called ‘Ido Hyuk.’

Why is everyone making such a big deal out of this?

“No, seriously, is it that chaotic?”

“Yeah, it is.”

Akuma was taken aback by his teammate’s response.

To be honest, he was expecting a different answer.

“No, not about Ultimate Fighter. I heard about that too. Defeating Anatol. But what I’m talking about is, can he really do that well in Iron Fist?”

Akuma was not a pro gamer from Ultimate Fighter.

By the time he first encountered fighting games, Egall’s popularity had faded, and Iron Fist had long been dominant.

However, that doesn’t mean he didn’t know about the greatness of the former Egall pros.

One of the strongest players in Korean Iron Fist, Anatol.

‘This guy isn’t someone who would say such things···’

And… Beyond, who was right in front of Akuma now.

Having faced both of them numerous times in domestic and international competitions, Akuma knew well of their greatness.

Both were undeniable masters.

Of course, Akuma himself was a high-level pro gamer who had clashed with them in several tournaments.

He might fall behind them in his overall career, but in terms of current form, he could compete with them.

“···”

However, that’s why he couldn’t understand it even more.

‘No, who said transitioning games was that easy.’

Akuma also knew this because he had tried Ultimate Fighter as a joke in the past.

In just a few hours, he had adapted quite well and quickly climbed the ranks in ranked matches, soon reaching the Gold Class.

But that was it.

In the Gold Class, he started hitting walls, winning and losing, and so on.

Of course, Akuma believed that if he had focused more on Egall, he would have reached the top and had the skills of most pro gamers.

It was just that he couldn’t find the right time and reason to do so.

It’s not that he couldn’t.

However, no matter how talented Akuma might be, he was not a genius, and the fact that he struggled in the competition meant that the games “Ultimate Fighter” and “Iron Fist” did not perfectly complement each other.

“Are you sure about that? Absolutely.”

But Beyond had a different opinion.

“Do you guarantee that much?”

“Um, do I?”

Well, was this guy, Lee Dohyuk, as talented as me, Beyond, or Anatole?

No, from the way he spoke, was he even more talented? Was that possible?

Akuma momentarily made a puzzled expression at the thought.

“Why, do you doubt that?”

“No. It’s not that.”

“It’s fine. I was like that too. If I were to describe what kind of person he is… No. You’ll see when you meet him.”

There are unbelievably talented people in this world.

Beyond was about to say something but held back.

There was no need to break his spirit already.

“Look at that puzzled face of yours.”

Beyond chuckled as he looked at Akuma.

Although Akuma was actually a few years younger than him, he couldn’t help but feel embarrassed thinking back to himself a few days ago, feeling immature.

Beyond spoke up.

“It won’t take long anyway. Probably… a day or two? That should be enough time for you to rank up and meet Mr. Dohyuk, right?”

It surely wouldn’t take that long.

In fact, a day or two was a conservative estimate.

“He really is a talented guy.”

Seeing Beyond’s confident expression, Akuma nodded slightly.

And just then.

“Huh?”

A sudden thought crossed his mind.

If this streamer named Lee Dohyuk was so outstanding, and if, as Beyond said, he would soon become widely known even in Iron Fist…?

“Bro, I’m heading to play games now. Need to practice a bit.”

“Ah, go for it. Work hard.”

A good idea seemed to have popped into his head.

—

Bam!

Lee Dohyuk’s use of Kujo was similar to when he first dealt with Hoken on the first day.

The skills he had honed were only a few dashing and attacking skills.

The rest was more about improvisation than a set technique.

Swish!

He evaded after seeing an attack.

Bam!

He lands his blow.

[K.O.]

-Oh

-That was easy, huh?

-For real, such an easy win.

[18 wins 0 losses]

“Hmm… a bit, disappointing.”

-Huh?

-What’s up?

-Oh, was it too easy?

-hahahaha, yeah~

“Both ‘too easy’ and ‘disappointing’ are correct.”

What should I say?

Should I express my concern about the broadcast graphics being worried due to winning too easily?

In the past, when participating in Ultimate Fighter, he didn’t show the same newbie (?) side as he does now on the broadcast.

But now, it was being broadcasted from the beginning with a champion vibe.

Although he was rapidly climbing the ranks, there was a worry that viewers might find it boring.

-Yes?

-Oh, as long as you worry about us.

-hahahaha, we’re just having fun.

-The gameplay is enjoyable, indeed.

But it seemed like unnecessary worry.

Those viewers who responded saying not to worry about having fun while playing like this.

“It’s rare to worry about the fun while playing like this, lol.”

-True, lol.

-(Slightly paraphrased) Worried because there isn’t a decent sandbag to practice against.

-hahahaha, were you worried about your own skills?

Of course, it’s still unknown how long everyone will support everything he does like they do now.

As such, he hoped his next opponent would be someone like Lee Dohyuk, who would make for an interesting match.

[MATCH!]

Who would grant that wish?

-Oh

-The opponent must be a pro for sure.

As the matched opponent was revealed, the chat box became lively.

Currently, Lee Dohyuk’s rank win rate is 100%.

[Amuka]

[21 wins 0 losses]

Coincidentally, the caught opponent also had a win rate of 100%.

It was a meeting of undefeated players.

“Oh.”

At that moment, an observer scrutinizing Lee Dohyuk with care.

Where could they be looking?

Upon seeing the location of his nickname and battle code,

smirk-

the observer flashed a sly smile.
