I Regressed But The World Didn’T Fall Apart 65

Back to the Beginning, the World Isn’t Doomed -65- (Revised)

065.

Since when was it?

[Hmm, interesting]

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ □ □ □

[Anatole]

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ □ □ □

Their HP equalized ahead.

[Hmm, interesting]

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ □ □ □

[Anatole]

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ □ □ □ □ □

What began to show a clear difference after that was.

Surely Anatole was taking the lead in the offensive.

However, as the confrontation continued, the one whose blood was being shed was also Anatole.

Crack-!

A strike aimed at the opponent’s neck flashed with the sound of lightning.

I was certain it would land.

Thud!

But it was deftly blocked by Ido-hyuk.

Following that, this time the offensive came from Ido-hyuk’s side.

A fierce stabbing attack.

Anatole urgently raised his guard.

And right at that moment,

Whip-!

A leg, twisted like a whip, struck Anatole as the orbit wavered.

Thunk!

“Ha!”

With a slight sense of urgency, Anatole managed to evade backwards, reducing the impact.

It didn’t end there.

With a swift movement of the upper body, Ido-hyuk closed the distance with a dash.

Like an undulating opponent riding the waves.

If this continues···

Crack!

Whoosh!

Anatole’s prediction was correct.

In an instant, Ido-hyuk’s extreme power strike aimed between his guard.

It was quite similar to what Anatole had displayed a little while ago.

‘..As expected.’

In truth, at this level, it’s hard to feign ignorance.

Anatole’s various techniques unleashed in this battle are being absorbed by Ido-hyuk.

But is that important?

No.

Those are merely ‘techniques.’

If Ido-hyuk set his mind to it, he could have easily watched and followed them at any moment; it was a skill level he could pick up at a glance.

Things like that.

‘Not important.’

What’s important is that Anatole is also moving forward.

Anatole charged at Ido-hyuk once more.

His eyes different from the beginning of the match!

Thud!

Fists collide, canceling each other out.

But what Anatole aimed for wasn’t that from the start, but the following swing –

Whack!!

A resounding blow echoed, far from subtle.

“..Hm?”

Along with his trademark ‘Hm,’ Do-hyuk’s eyes widened slightly.

It was inevitable.

Do-hyuk was guarding.

However, Anatole’s strike hit him despite his defense.

[Hm, is that so]

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ □ □ □

↓

[Hm, is that so]

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ □ □ □ □

A change in Do-hyuk’s HP.

-Wow, hahahaha, did that one land properly this time?

-Oh

-hahahaha, got me

-God Anatole

Just one square.

Only one square.

But that one square held a deeper meaning that both Do-hyuk and Anatole were aware of.

The significance differed from the three squares chipped away earlier.

Do-hyuk had taken those with a somewhat light-hearted attitude, learning from them.

But this time was different.

[Hm, is that so]

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ □ □ □ □

[Anatole]

■ ■ ■ ■ □ □ □ □ □ □

Of course, Anatole still had the upper hand in terms of HP.

Moreover, Anatole knew well what the significance of the gap between the one square of blood he took from Do-hyuk was, just as the two squares meant more than mere numbers.

Closing that gap, and ultimately defeating Do-hyuk?

Is that possible?

‘But that’s not important.’

Calculating win rates is meaningless.

There are more critical matters at hand.

“hahahaha.”

A smile formed involuntarily.

Now, he understood what last time’s Do-hyuk had meant.

[-Wasn’t it fun? I thought it was.]

Perhaps at that time, Idohyuk also felt something similar to what he is feeling now.

The pleasure of pouring out one’s full power.

Anatol said.

“I think I understand now.”

“?”

“What you meant by fun, Idohyuk.”

Grin-

Following that, Idohyuk’s smile deepened.

-Provocation, wow

-Idohyuk-sensei seems annoyed seeing him smile lol

-??? : Hyung, why is this newbie smiling?

“Idohyuk.”

“Yes.”

“From now on, I ask for your sincerity.”

Provocation?

No, it wasn’t that.

Rather, it was the few seconds that Idohyuk showed last time, the sense of distance he felt back then.

The desire to experience that again was stronger.

Tap.

The two who were briefly talking while keeping a distance from each other.

Idohyuk and Anatol adjusted their postures.

Idohyuk with a relaxed face.

“···”

But Anatol couldn’t do the same.

A slightly trembling face.

Nervousness? Unlikely.

Rather… what was it?

The excitement and anticipation he felt when he first conquered the world as the ultimate fighter.

And then,

Whoosh!

Competitive spirit.

Anatol stepped on the accelerator.

Idohyuk did the same.

The two running towards each other.

“Hah!”

Just before the collision, Anatol twisted his body.

Whoosh-

Idohyuk’s leg barely passed over Anatol’s head as if cutting through the air.

Slightly raising his guard, Idohyuk.

“I felt it last time as well…”

He’s quite perceptive.

Undoubtedly talented.

But most of all, what he likes is Anatol’s mindset.

Idohyuk smiled faintly.

From Noble mtl dot com

“Sincerely in mode.”

If that’s what you truly desire.

Swiftly!

Idohyuk’s attack came piercing through.

Anatol could only withstand the last sincere-mode Idohyuk for a few seconds.

No, not even seconds, barely a second.

Relying on his senses, he managed to block a few attacks just in time, but then succumbed to the rest.

But this time is different!

Thud! Thwack!

Anatol’s arms and legs moved swiftly.

With minimal movements, he defended against Idohyuk’s attacks, dodged, and at times, aimed back······

“Huh?!”

Thunk!

Finally, Idohyuk’s toe struck Anatol’s side.

[08:58]

From the moment they dashed towards each other earlier.. up to this point, it’s been 4 seconds.

And what followed was···

Thud! Thwack-!

“Ugh!”

“···Hm.”

“Ugh!”

.

.

.

[YOU LOSE]

“..Ugh.”

Anatol, stooped over, in an OTL position.

To Anatol in that state, Idohyuk offered a comforting word.

“Anatol? You’re definitely talented! Hmm!”

-hahahaha lololol

-Lololol but not entirely, right?

-There’s some talent~~

-Lololololol

Certainly, 100% pure sincerity.

“If he were a Hunter…

If he had devoted 20 years, would he have turned a 9th hero into a 10th hero?

Anyway-

So, what time was it when the match ended?

[09:04]

He managed to hold on for a whopping 10 seconds against Yi Dohyuk in Sincerity Mode!

You’ve grown, Anatole!

**

Similar perspectives.

“Sis, are you serious?”

Nodding-

Ha-, Ha, Sinjiro sighed.

No matter how much she ignored herself, she was a prodigy.

“…Sis. This is the first time today.”

Who am I?

The hope of the Japanese gaming world, the prince who would follow Tsuki, a swordsmanship genius.

“…Well, I guess I have to remove the last one now.”

If Sinjiro had not heard that he was quite talented within the Chiba family, if the age difference with his eldest son was not significant, he might have contested the successor position – although he was a runner-up… But such words faded in front of his sister, Chiba Rin.

It was because his sister was like, ‘Why a woman in the first place?’, ‘Such talent in a woman, this is a joke from the gods’, ‘Shouldn’t we discard the traditional thinking of old men and appoint a woman as a successor’… etc.

When compared to Ifdor, if Sinjiro was a 1st Crown King, his sister would be at least around a 16th Crown King.

It pricked his conscience to boast about being a swordsmanship genius in front of such a sister.

Just… a skilled swordsman, maybe?

‘But still, even so!’

It had been just about 2 hours since his sister logged into Full Dive.

All she did was measure statistics, optimize personally, do something (mostly, struggling with how to turn on a game when she couldn’t even handle a computer properly, let alone a capsule).

In other words, his sister was the ultimate newbie among newbies who had just logged into Iron Fist.

“But shall we have a 1-on-1 match?”

Nodding-

Once again, an immediate nod.

Seeing that, Sinjiro made a puzzled expression.

Upon seeing that, Rin hesitated for a moment.

Why was Sinjiro sulking again?

“······”

She didn’t know.

As Rin, it was something hard to understand.

“Phew, just accept the invitation for now. Accept the friend request I sent.”

“..Okay.”

Anyway, a room for the 1-on-1 match was created.

Sinjiro invited Rin.

Thump- Thump-“

He spoke to Lin, who was jumping a few times in the waiting room.

“How’s it going? Having a hard time adjusting? It’s quite different from reality, isn’t it? Even though you’re older, it might take some time to adapt, right?”

“Yeah. That’s right.”

Thump-thump-

After jumping a few times.

“······”

Lin, momentarily staring into space.

Shinjiro chuckled and said, “If you’re looking for how to choose a character, just press and hold the left arrow at the bottom.”

“Ah.”

“By the way, the one I’ve chosen now is Masamune. If you want to do this too, just swirl your hand a few times to the right, and it will come out, so watch carefully and choose.”

Snap-

Thanks to Shinjiro’s explanation, Lin was able to find Masamune.

Upon choosing, the character transformed into a female version of Masamune.

Unlike Ulpha, which sold the same character divided into male and female versions, Iron Fist’s advantage lay in the fact that one character underwent a gender transformation based on certification as male or female.

Thanks to this, Lin could choose a female character and eliminate Netkamas who played without voice due to microphone malfunctions.

However, afterward, due to numerous objections, now anyone could use male or female characters regardless of gender!

Anyway.

Swish-! Swish-!

This time, Lin wielded the sword a few times.

Then, as if surprised, she began to alternately look at her arm and the sword.

After that, Lin looked at Shinjiro.

“hehehe. I know even without you saying. So, this is about motion correction…”

Followed by Shinjiro’s explanation.

Shinjiro briefly explained the concepts of correction and no-correction, as well as how to adjust them.

Huh-

Accompanied by a laughter that emerged.

‘To think I have to explain even these basics to a beginner.’

Of course, Shinjiro also knows.

After all, as time goes on, it will become nearly impossible for Lin to defeat him.

From the very beginning, even in real sword fights, he had never defeated Lin.

Even Kazuma, when he was young, had tried to win but now only lost to Lin every time.

Certainly, the difference in strength due to gender, and the resulting speed even faster, created miracles.

Moreover, in Iron Fist, whether the character is male or female, there is no difference in physical specs.

Naturally, as time passes, Lin will inevitably overpower him here too.

‘But that’s a story for later.’

This is a ‘fighting game’ that is also a ‘fight game.’

Shinjiro had an infinite number of techniques that he could use against Lin, including various techniques exclusive to the game, as well as grappling techniques that Lin had to know to block.

Moreover, the opponent was a full-dive rookie, a newbie in Iron Fist.

In other words…

“First, win, and next time, I might not go easy on you.”

Whether in Korea, Japan, or anywhere in the world, there exists a trick.

Commonly known as the ‘You’re no good’ strategy.

Swish!

Thud-

Look.

There, the sight of stumbling due to a twisted foot while executing a sword stance.

To be honest, if he had given himself a few days… or maybe just one or two days to adapt to his older sister, he might have ended up losing.

Swish! Swish!

Moreover, he still hadn’t fully adapted to the Iron Fist characters’ physical specs.

The sound of the swinging sword stance was pitiful······

─Slash!

“Huh?”

Was it a mistake?

Did that sound just now…?

Momentarily distracted by wiping around his eyes, he couldn’t see clearly.

“..Hmm. Shall we begin?”

Only now did a foreboding feeling arise.

It seemed like he shouldn’t give his sister any more time to prepare.

Therefore···

Nodding-

[READY]

[FIGHT]

The match started swiftly.

─Slash!

And likewise, the sword stances were swiftly unleashed.

How much time had passed?

‘What was it called..’

He had recently learned some Korean, something Tsuki had told him about.

“···Ah.”

It came to mind.

That was it.

‘Jaenonchon… something..’

Time passed quickly.
