Chapter 11
Chapter 11 – Is This… an Interview?
I’m not anyone important, and I never intended to be interviewed.
“Oh, looks like the questions have stopped. Can I ask a question then?”
“No, wait a moment, I’m in the middle of a team fight.”
“Was it right to pull out of a CC chain against a monk just now?”
“No, no!! Oh! This is embarrassing for real! How did that arrow hit from that angle?!”
But when you think about it, an interview is essentially a conversation. And a conversation with a broadcaster is essentially a donation.
“That’s right. You should have used it on the archer. You know your stuff!”
Free donations couldn’t be held back.
『Haha, your voice sounds excited, see it through!』
『Wait… an interview? Wait… an interview? Wait… an interview? Wait… an interview? Wait… an interview?』
『Ark, let’s end the call now… Ark, let’s end the call now… Ark, let’s end the call now… Ark, let’s end the call now… Ark, let’s end the call now…』
『The never-ending broadcast of teachings where you don’t get banned, how touching!』
– User ㅇㅇ has donated 5,000 Won! –
『Teacher, I don’t know what this is, but it doesn’t seem like an interview at all.』
“Sigh… no, sigh… so, is there a reason why you only steal?”
“Yes. We’re the godly rogues.”
“So, why is a rogue godly… ah, why is a holy knight appearing here? What are we doing underground?!”
『Oh dear.』
『Haha, Promotion matches are fun…! Oh my!』
『Teachers, it looks like my monitor is broken, the color isn’t showing.』
『Grey Queen Ark! Grey Queen Ark! Grey Queen Ark! Grey Queen Ark! Grey Queen Ark! Grey Queen Ark! Grey Queen Ark! Grey Queen Ark!』
“Sigh… so, could you explain why you think rogues are godly?”
“Um~”
Where should I start this story?
No, seriously. The rogue’s potential hasn’t been fully uncovered yet, but they’re really a god-tier character.
The higher your physical abilities, the higher the peak, but at the same time, this character can win games through mental abilities even if their physical attributes are not good.
Thinking about how to summarize and respond, “Ah! Wait! I can win! Hey guys! Hey guys?!”
『Surrender vote has started』 ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ □
Ark’s second promotion match has come to an end.
“Ah… It’s too bad. But for the strategy… I think we’re lacking one X, are you going to change it now?”
“… Yes, I’m going to change it now…”
Oh dear. Clamping down on teeth like that can’t be good for the gums. Despite being ridiculed as a “trash player”, when you reach the top tier of Diamond, you’re in the top 0.4%.
The MMR that only a tiny minority of players can achieve. No matter how many users there are, even if they are of a similar rank, it still takes quite a long time to queue players together.
『Masters Seed Ark’s Promotion Match Broadcast (x x _ _ _ _ _) | Part 2 GetDevoured Interview & Promotion Match』
Thanks to that, Ark was able to change the broadcast title and focus on the interview for a considerable amount of time.
“So, could you answer the question I asked earlier? What are the good points of a rogue?”
“Ah, well, could I take a little more time to think and answer? If you have another question, I’ll answer that first.”
『Let’s talk about how you won the underground dungeon quickly.』
『Why don’t you open two boxes in 4 minutes as you usually do?』
『Please explain the Underground Arena trap, 6T, please.』
『Isn’t the explanation of the wallhack more important first?』

『Please ask a question about what happened with Gwangjil Underground』

『If it’s a woman, can I write anything? LOL Even if you think in ㄴ (a derogatory way of speaking in Korean) and controversy arises over a woman’s voice, ignore it and continue the interview LOL』
Although chats related to hacking concerns or donations were temporarily blocked without exception, it was clear what the viewers were interested in.
However, if Ark even indirectly mentioned hacking or Underground Arena, the subject would inevitably return to the hacking controversy. It might be possible as a highlight, but not now.
“Um…… Then, I will ask only one thing I was personally curious about. Why do you target me like that, exactly?”
“Target? Who are you referring to?”
“Yes, I mean you! Well, I mean, GetDevoured-nim! No way, even here till now denying being targeted-”
“That’s unfair.”
『Hahahaha x10』
『That’s not fair lol x10』
『But feeling unfairly treated in that voice, it really seems unfair lol.』
『Our GetDevoured-nim feels unfairly treated!!!』
『Baseless defamation… Stop it!』
“Ark, let’s start from the pick.”
“Are you planning to steal again while pretending to be random?”
“No, now, that’s……sigh. Yes, understood. Then I will move on to the next question. Honestly, I can’t help but ask this one as well. About that username, what- huh? Pick? Ah, thank you. That was close.”
Throughout the conversation, due to something welling up deeply in her heart every two minutes, Ark couldn’t concentrate on the game or the interview. She had forgotten the grateful feeling she had just a while ago.
“So, do you have any intention of changing that username? Because you are a woman… it’s a bit embarrassing, still…”
“What username are you referring to?”
“… KoK’s username.”
“I have quite a few sub characters.”
“Yes, the GetDevoured, eatNSteal, Get Eaten, devour You, you mean?”
“Yes. How did you almost know all of them?”
“Well, yes. How… How do I know all your sub characters?”
“It’s amazing.”
『LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL』
『Seriously, the consistency is completely messed up LOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL』
-User donated 5,000 won!-
【But it’s weird, I somehow don’t feel angry like this】
『Yeah, it feels like something amazing is happening』
『Right, it can be amazing to coincidentally encounter even sub-characters』
『How is this not amazing? Keep running into each other coincidentally?』
“Ha… Yes, that’s right. Anyway, in reality, all the IDs are the same… Do you have any intention of changing them?”
“No, I don’t.”
“Are you aware that the prosecutor doesn’t look at gender?”
“Yes, but what if the opponent picks a rogue and doesn’t go for an emergency escape as a mage?”
『I don’t know about prosecutions, but they should come out properly LOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL』
『Prosecution immune to foreigners, right?』
『No, but why would a rogue show up among opponents LOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL』
『Definitely a snipe LOLLOLOLOL, those troll rogues are rampant for messing up the ranks LOLLOLOLOLOLOL』
『There’s even a punk wearing plate armor with low health LOLLOLOLOL』
『They must be appearing only in newbie areas LOLLOLOLOLOL, does the master look like a noob LOLLOLOL』
“Yes, because the opponent doesn’t have an archer, you can just control them with a knight. Anyway, I’ll have to ask you questions about your ID again when we meet the police officer face to face.”
=Dwoong!=
With a solid sound, the character selection for each team was completed.
Ark’s team consists of 2 paladins, 1 warrior, 1 mage, 1 archer, and 1 priest, a traditional and solid combination.
Each holy knight is responsible for one land attack.
The warrior is in charge of the underground attack, quickly hunting and then launching a surprise attack on the land or tower.
The mage and priest provide appropriate support for the land attack and once they capture a tower, they dominate the area to strengthen their position.
The archer suppresses the opposing archer and mage from a distance, occasionally sniping the holy knight who tries to escape.
It’s a proven, efficient, and powerful combination in numerous rank games.
On the other hand, the opponent’s team consists of 2 paladins, 1 warrior, 1 mage, 1 rogue, and 1 priest. Two holy knights were each in charge of the surface attack route,
The warrior and rogue were fighting over who gets to go underground, occasionally throwing out sarcastic remarks.
The magician couldn’t cast spells properly because she was busy dodging the enemy archer’s preemptive strikes, the priest couldn’t even buff her dying allies as she rushed around trying to save them.
This was a proven and predestined combination of defeat in countless ranked games.
“It seems like an easy win with this lineup.”
『Rogue: I’ll go underground x2』
『Didn’t the rogue pick first?』
『Rogues don’t have the first pick right』
『Why is the rogue whining about rights that belong to humans?』
『Just the thought of Ark snatching victory in the promotion match makes my blood boil』
『That rogue was supposed to be on this side』
『Please dodge, please dodge, please dodge, please dodge, please dodge, please dodge, please dodge, please dodge, please dodge, please dodge, please dodge, please dodge』
Ark chuckled as she read the chat messages, even though deep down, she was desperately praying that the rogue wouldn’t dodge.
Will she face the opposing rogue as she interviews a notorious female gamer specializing in rogue champions?
By showcasing how trashy the rogue is throughout the game and asking related questions, the viewer response is sure to explode.
“So, how do you think rogues can be buffed to become viable?”
“Oh, that’s a great question. Can I answer along with the question I put on hold earlier?”
As the countdown ended and the screen transitioned to the loading screen,
“Well, of course— huh?”
『???』
『Did she just eat that?』
『LOL, she was sniping while denying being sniped?』
『OMG, what a madman』
『Even in our snipers’ association, that person was disciplined for excessive sniping』
『This guy is consistent in being a total jerk…』
“I’ll answer and be right back.”
Thud.
As the voice chat disconnected, the game began.
TL’s Corner:
Okay, so MC sniped Ark again, I’m guessing.
