A Basement-Dwelling Loser, the Inquisitor – Chapter 99

[Rene]

[Hello. Watching NAK simultaneously.]

[New Dimension | 5242 viewers online | 00:57:21]

[Totally a beast mode, Sirius team?!]
[Absolutely! This feels nothing like the Sirius team we knew!]
[Every lane is playing like a beast! If the opponent is in sight, they just charge in and go for the kill!]
[From the opening game, they recorded a GG at 20 minutes and 29 seconds!]
[I really want to ask how they’ve changed their playstyle this much.]
[Right? When you say Sirius team, what image comes to mind? Believing in the overwhelming strength of the mid lane, while the other lanes support, and Ga-eun repays that faith by sweeping through mid! But this time, it’s different! Every single lane! Overwhelmingly! Crushed the opponent! Just like Theo said, totally beast mode!]

─ ‘Beast’
─ Wow, Sirius really came prepared, sharpening their knives, haha!
─ Pro players are doing an insane job!
─ Owen just completely flipped this round, damn!
─ But this round, Sirius is indeed a bunch of beasts <<< No other word to describe it! Haha!
─ Where did the host go? Haha!
─ A beastly girl, haha!

“…I’ll end the broadcast here.”
─?
─Wait, what?! The first set just ended, you crazy girl!
─Sorry, Rene, I messed up! But all that Sirius play was no perfect brain play, I mean seriously, beastly girl!

“…Hmph.”

〔Broadcast has ended.〕

[Especially Owen’s performance really shone!]
[Yes. That play by the Spear Master in the early game was key to solidifying the win.]
[Owen normally excels at strategic plays with a wide vision, but he’s showing this kind of skill!]

Even though the broadcast was off, the lingering commentary about the competition was enough to annoy me.

Why is that called a skillful play?

The match-up between Battle Mage and Spear Master was something Owen and I already practiced before, and we had calculated today’s situation down to the last detail.

But those commentators dismissed it as a skillful play, without knowing a thing about it.

I wasn’t happy about it.

As I simmered in frustration, a DM from Ga-eun about Miscode arrived.

[Ga-eun: Did you end your broadcast? The director suddenly said it went off.]
[Inquisition Officer: Yes.]
[Ga-eun: We still have the second set left…]
[Inquisition Officer: I’m not doing it.]
[Inquisition Officer: I’m not a beast.]
[Ga-eun: Huh???]
[Inquisition Officer: I’m not a beast.]

Even when I talk seriously, no one listens,
They just say I’m a beast because of what the commentators said,
Seriously, everyone will regret it later.

[Set one with the jungle dive? Oh, yes. I calculated it to go in.]
[The exact reason is strategical secrecy, but I had solid grounds to do so.]
[The reason for attempting such a play is… Well, recently I learned about exploiting the opponent’s weaknesses.]
[I practiced the Battle Mage and Spear Master match-up a lot recently…]
[But I definitely didn’t just rush in without reason. I had grounds to go in.]
[Even if I got hit by the Sky Strike, I would have still sent them packing.]

So that play really had some rationale behind it?
…
I’m sorry for doubting it.

Great Demon Rene
