chapter 4
Cha Jin-hyeok looked at it through the ‘intermediary’s gaze’.
[LV15(+2)/Red Flesh Demon/Assassin/Skill/Killing(Nine Kills)]
Whiik!
The woman brandished a knife.
‘Oh, it’s an assassination!’
Cha Jin-hyeok’s body reacted naturally.
Usually up to level 60 is classified as low level.
A level section with almost no job boundaries according to level.
In Cha Jin-hyeok’s eyes, the woman’s body movements were clearly visible in slow motion.
With his left hand, he slashed the woman’s right wrist and dropped the knife.
‘Oh, did I have a relay barrier?’
I could just block it, but I reacted like this.
I was afraid of being a habit.
‘Next time, I’ll try to block it with a relay barrier.’
A pleasant smile appeared on Cha Jin-hyeok’s lips.
I took the dagger out of my inventory.
The dagger was a very versatile item.
Its destructive power and durability are weak, but it doesn’t really choose a job.
It meant that it could be handled even if the level rose a lot, and in that sense, it was a pretty good weapon for a streamer to use.
‘Where should I poke?’
There were too many places to poke.
‘I want the nape of my neck.’
hooked!
Kyaaa the woman! He fell down screaming.
I was rolling on the floor in agony from the pain I was experiencing for the first time, and then the shock came and I collapsed.
With a dagger stuck in his throat, he was half-stunned and convulsed.
It’s been a while since I shared a sword with an assassin.
‘Hoo, it was almost fun.’
Cha Jin-hyeok calmly continued the broadcast.
“Perhaps I was trying to fulfill my ten-year-old achievements. My body level is 15, but I received an additional 2 levels and read it as level 17.”
It was related to the achievement of ‘Gusal’ accomplished by this woman.
The +2 level effect was applied as an achievement effect.
“I think I was aiming for the right moment, thinking that if I got the 10-year-old achievement effect, I could probably kill everyone here. I look weak, so I think they targeted me first.”
Cha Jin-hyeok glanced at the woman’s body as if she had been electrocuted.
“It’s a little shocking that I came up with the name ‘Red Flesh Ear’ for myself. You look pretty old too. Anyway, I will retrieve the weapon.”
Cha Jin-hyeok casually took out the dagger.
Pooak!
Blood spurted out.
Cha Jin-hyeok’s entire body was wet.
“It seems that I was able to deal with it without much difficulty because there are still few boundaries between occupations.”
the woman is dead
It was only natural to kill someone who was ambush during play.
‘The original rule is to drag it to a place where it can’t be revived and kill it completely.’
However, future criteria could not be applied.
But now it’s the beginner section.
I had no choice but to lower the standards and apply them.
The sticky blood drenched his entire body, but nothing special.
Originally, ‘It’s natural to get bloody while playing’ was Cha Jin-hyeok’s standard.
“Aren’t you all hurt too?”
“Yes Yes!”
“Yes!”
The kids answered much faster than before.
They avoided Cha Jin-hyeok’s gaze.
They were stained with fear, but Cha Jin-hyeok could not read it.
‘They’re much nicer and more polite than I thought.’
* * *
The kids I experienced were not like this.
As a player belonging to the NIS, I rarely dealt with children.
‘The kids I had to deal with were really serious villains.’
Not all kids in the world are such villains, but all the kids I experienced were terrible villains.
However, these friends were very respectful and polite to me, so I felt good for some reason.
A lot of time has passed.
All of those friends also raised their level by 1 or 2, and were good at hunting dwarf monsters.
It was midnight.
At midnight, a golden dust began to rise from the corpses.
[Use the skill, ‘Interviewer’s Gaze’.]
Once again, I felt the power of the relayer’s gaze.
Looking at it from the point of view of the relayer, the system kindly knew what the phenomenon was.
The information was automatically entered into my head.
“It’s time to regen. They say that dead bodies will come back to life at 12 o’clock, so I’ll have to get an interview.”
The faces of the fallen corpses began to come alive.
They got up and touched their bodies with bewildered expressions.
“My, am I alive?”
“Ji, are you really alive?”
The two men, who had been corpses earlier, were in a state of panic.
The children were also looking around with puzzled expressions.
Such a vivid response, very good.
is the angle of the tube.
“Then let’s share an interview. How was it when you died… … .”
I tried, but it wasn’t easy.
It was because the middle school 2, no, red flesh, who had tried to stab me behind my back earlier, picked up the dagger that had fallen on the floor and tried to stab me.
“die!!!”
This woman is so consistent.
I continued relaying.
To be honest, I was a bit nervous the first time I was attacked, but not anymore.
My reason overcame my instincts.
I wasn’t thrilled.
Calmly and calmly, like a streamer, he continued the broadcast.
“Ah, I’m a streamer protected by relay barriers.”
This time, I will try to use a real relay barrier.
‘Relay barrier.’
The woman’s dagger couldn’t pierce my relay barrier.
Only the name was grandiose, but the dagger was poor.
“Ouch!”
The red flesh let out a short scream and let go of the dagger.
It was because of the anti-elasticity.
It seemed that his wrists were constantly throbbing.
“I’m going to stab you again where I stabbed you earlier.”
I picked up the dagger and stabbed it again where I had stabbed it earlier.
In this way, something similar to trauma is triggered, and it is much easier to subdue.
The Red Flesh was bleeding and collapsed.
“The end is sure to be the heart.”
hooked!
It ended with a stab in the heart.
Surprisingly attacking from behind was something only malicious villains did.
The madmen who came to fight me didn’t surprise me either.
“It is very easy. Today’s broadcast ends here, thank you.”
Only one person died.
It was a very peaceful and decent broadcast.

Egan Paul.
As a famous American streamer, he was a ranker in the global hit game ‘Ordin’.
He was one of those people who adjusted very quickly to the recent anomaly.
‘A new era has come.’
A new world that cannot be explained by science.
He awakened as a preemptive awakening streamer and moved quickly.
He started streaming using his accumulated know-how and quickly reached level 15.
Moving to the awakening space, he chose ‘Egan Paul’ as his awakening name.
And he immediately put his name on the ranking board.

[Streamer series (US map)]
[1st. Egan Paul(LV:15)]

He talked to Joseph.
Joseph was Egan Paul’s manager and best friend.
“Is that another strange broadcast?”
“yes. Please cooperate well.”
“Well, how many viewers do you have?”
“1,500 people.”
“What the puck? barely? You have more than 20 million subscribers on Ltube. quit it and do this? Are you out of your mind?”
Egan Paul shrugged.
“We have to prepare for the future ahead of time. If you live as you have lived, you will be weeded out.”
“Ahh, yes. do whatever you want.”
If it’s money anyway, it’s a lot of money, so I decided not to worry about things like that.
“But why only 1,500 people?”
“The capacity limit is set at 1,500. As I found out, this was also a lot. It seems that the higher the talent, the higher the number of people per level.”
“Then 100 people per level?”
“right.”
Eganpole smiled with satisfaction.
“I am 100 per level. But usually there are 30 people per level.”
“I heard that there are about 3,000 children on the Internet?”
Egan Paul grinned.
“That’s me.”
“what?”
Egan Paul was best friends with Joseph, and he kept no secrets from him.
Egan Paul had ‘reputation’ as well as ‘relay barrier’ as a characteristic.
“The more famous you become, the more advantageous the setting. Viewer numbers can be fooled.”
“So you’re bluffing?”
“uh. Now, with my skills, I can double the price.”
Currently, he was applying the ‘number of viewers x2’ notation.
So I was able to inflate the number of viewers from 1,500 to 3,000.
After about 3 days, he reached level 20.

[Streamer Series]
[1st. Egan Paul(LV:20)]
──────────
The number of viewers increased exponentially to 2,000.
Now ‘Viewers x 3’ is applied and displayed as 6,000.
He released the information network and felt the gap between himself and other streamers.
‘I am the overwhelming number one.’
He did not know of the existence of Kim Chul-soo across the sea.
Kim Chul-soo reached 6,000 pure viewers at level 20.
[Communication with viewers becomes possible.]
[Chat/sponsorship is available.]
Egan Paul began to build a reputation by communicating with viewers in earnest.
He recruited rankers from each class based on his outstanding wealth.
The money was already too much to rot.
Recruiting rankers from each class wasn’t too difficult.
“Instead, we have to cooperate with the directing to some extent according to the script that our story writer put together.”
Sometimes I had to create a boiling comradeship, sometimes an unexpected twist, and sometimes a conflict between team members.
Seven professional narrative writers joined.
“I see.”
“So be it.”
“If only you give me money.”
They are called the Avengers Corps and started to master the tutorial fields one by one.
* * *
“I don’t know exactly about spearmanship.”
Of course, that was Cha Jin-hyeok’s standard.
The fact that he didn’t know spearmanship was when he set the target of comparison to rankers at least at the level of spearmanship.
Cha Jin-hyeok’s standard was always like that.
“I don’t know exactly, but I’ll explain what I know.”
“Yes!”
“Stop is the basic and important stance of two-handed spearmanship. Since you mainly use stabbing with a 9-person barrier, it would be most advantageous to take a mid-stance.”
“Yes Yes!”
“All right.”
Cha Jin-hyeok called them high school students and was building a good partnership with them.
In Cha Jin-hyeok’s eyes, the kids were very cooperative and kind.
‘Somehow the number of viewers is too many.’
Level 20 Eganfall said that the number of viewers was 6,000.
However, Cha Jin-hyeok also reached 6,000 at level 20.
He was targeting the secret box, not Egan Paul.
‘It’ll get boring if I keep showing the same content.’
So I continued to play here without leaving this field.
In the past few days, I have already hunted over 300 dwarf monsters.
‘Still, the sponsorship itself is pretty good, isn’t it?’
About 50,000 diamonds were donated a day.
Since 1 diamond has a value of about 1 won, it was quite good to work like this and receive 50,000 won per day.
For reference, Eganpole was sharing his streaming revenue through the Internet.
‘Didn’t Egan Paul say that he gets about 500,000 diamonds a day?’
Of course, that was a bogus number, but Cha Jin-hyeok didn’t know that.
Egan Paul was also receiving a sponsorship of 50,000 diamonds at this point.
‘It’s 1/10 level, so the sponsorship is just right.’
But then, a notification came.
[Hidden Peace, ‘hunting 300 dwarf monsters’ has been satisfied.]
‘Eh?’
Cha Jin-hyeok didn’t know much about the hidden pieces in low-level dungeons.
There are some things that I have memorized, but they are very bold things, or places where you can get essential characteristics.
‘Was there a hidden piece like this?’
But this wasn’t the end.
[The streamer-only hidden piece, ‘6,000 viewers in the field’ has been satisfied.]
[A new hidden piece is activated.]
Cha Jin-hyeok frowned slightly.
‘Why do I feel so grandiose?’
[‘King of the Dwarves – Gargar’ begins.]
‘Could it be that Gargar I know?’
That name was not a name that would appear in the tutorial field.
Cha Jin-hyeok’s heart started beating.
