Author: Bbaebbaejwa

There’s no such thing! Stupid!

The victory you all wish for, Lotus!


The defeat of Friede that you all imagine!


No matter what happens!


Absolutely!


It can never happen!! Stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zikgaterbelt: Of course, Bbaebbaejwa proves to be reliable.

Tikklemoapasan: Stupid should be punished for the full effect.

Nhope5555: Haha, watching Fraud is way better than Stupid.

Nstupid: What are you doing to me? You’re making me mad.

Honestly, if you wanted Lotus to cry like a baby, that’s a dumb idea.

Lol, first of all, me too.

SisterEatingMidder: Dumb idea.

Ilgwangsogeom: Lotus crying like crazy.

The Dominator: Is this a funeral?

Nㅇㅇ: It’s not a funeral; it’s a festival.

Nsesuddaeya: By the looks of it, their mental is gone. What if they crash hard this season? Haha.

Nㅇㅇ: Watch your words; Stupid fans are gunning for Friede.

Hey, everyone, look at this!!

STK official channel just dropped a montage of this brawl tournament, and what is this?

[Just some video of them dancing at the end at a bridge with the sunrise.]

Those two in the ending credits look like Friede and Lotus, right?

What’s that last vibe? T_T What’s with this sweet stuff? T_T Is this real, Friede and Lotus chemistry? T_T

ㅇㅇ: I don’t know?

Zikgaterbelt: ??? What’s going on?????

Kimkkdaullak: What the hell, does it look like they took off their helmet?

NTikklemoapasan: Definitely took off the helmet; their head looks completely blonde.

Nㅇㅇ: Lotus, you idiot! Why are you the only one looking at our sister’s face!?

LAmpadu: Do it for us too, ‘Galactic.’

The Dominator: Grrrrrr! If Friede starts streaming, I’m going to spam donations with no mercy.

NIlgwangsogeom: Same here, lol, what can she do if I drop a thousand bucks? Lmao.

NnunaEatingMidder: I’m saving up bullets too.

Is Friede just a pimpled ugly shrimp?

(Zoomed in video)

Is this enough? Huh? Is Friede a pimpled pig or a shrimp? You idiots!

She’s so pretty!

Tikklemoapasan: Can you see that?

NKimkkdaullak: If you focus, you can visualize it in your mind.

Nㅇㅇ: Are you Mongolian?

NnunaEatingMidder: My homeland is Mongolia, lol.

Tikklemoapasan: I can’t see the face itself, but roughly it looks slim… difficult to determine accurately.

Nㅇㅇ: Wow, but that blonde hair looks super pretty.

NSweetHanNam: My sister’s cloak and blonde hair are more noble than pure gold.

Nbbaebbaejwa: You’re doing great, haha.

The Soul Warfare community was still on fire about Friede.

It’s rare to find a girl who’s a pro gamer and even rarer if she’s top-tier.

In the meantime, Friede appeared like a comet, not only entering the Challenger but also winning the biggest domestic event league without a loss.

And not just that. She also achieved a flawless victory against Lotus, the strongest female professional gamer.

However, the biggest hot topic related to Friede was none other than the video shot on the bridge with Lotus.

“Look, Dayoung! BitchiSehee blew up again!”

At Bbaebbaejwa’s shout, Dayoung sighed internally.

‘What trouble is happening now?’

With Friede’s continuous string of events, it was now exhausting even to sigh.

Well, considering the current atmosphere, it was bound to explode again.

‘Why did she even use a Broken Greatsword?’

I checked the STK gallery just in case, and sure enough.

Voices condemning Friede’s Broken Greatsword were loud.

‘Even though Lotus also used a Broken Greatsword.’

They lost because they reluctantly matched up with Friede, so they’re just making excuses with a miraculous logic.

Well, that’s just how fans are, right?

They think purely based on emotions rather than reasoning.

Friede had long since turned into the villain among STK fans and, particularly, Lotus fans.

By the way, what is Bbaebbaejwa trying to show?

Is she trying to scapegoat her sister again with some malicious mindless flow?

It didn’t take long for Dayoung’s expression to harden while she was absentmindedly looking at the monitor in response to Bbaebbaejwa’s call.

“Huh?”

Two figures holding hands and dancing sweetly on the bridge.

Although too far away to distinguish their faces, there was only one notable person in Dayoung’s mind.

“Sister?”

“Hehe, BitchiSehee’s build-up is subtle.”

On the endlessly stretched bridge, a huge natural scenery.

And the dawn breaking in the sky.

Underneath, Friede and Lotus were dancing.

It surely was a beautifully made video enough to attract anyone’s attention.

The problem was…

“Did she take off her helmet?”

She showed her face to Lotus?

Why?

That was Dayoung’s first thought.

How often does a streamer get to interact with a current pro gamer?

Friede and Lotus couldn’t possibly be close enough to pull off a show like that.

“Dayoung, I’ve seen this a lot in manga. This is commonly known as an NTR setup… What if a video eventually comes to our house titled, ‘Friede’s face wearing a very happy expression?’ Ughhh!”

—Crack!

“I’m going to kill you for real.”

With a horrifying sound of bones twisting, Dayoung turned Bbaebbaejwa’s neck 720 degrees and took a deep breath to calm herself.

Well, there was no need to think negatively.

After all, I’m the one who meets my sister face-to-face in reality.

What does it matter if that girl is doing well as a pro gamer? Can she compare to a Hero?

Right, so…

“I’m suddenly angry.”

I felt frustration rise within me.

How could one gauge a person’s heart with reason?

It’s just irritating and annoying, so what should I do?

At that moment—

—Ding.

A notification sound ringing from my smartphone.

Wondering what it was, I saw a message from an unexpected person.

[Ajini: Hey… stupid.]

“What?”

Why is that loser Ajini sending me a fuss, making me uneasy?

Could it be that she’s unable to forget the thrill from the accessories my sister handed over and is asking for another?

But the message that Ajini sent afterward was completely different from my expectations.

[Ajini: Are you just going to let it pass like this?]

“Hah!”

The short, rough laugh that slipped out contained a sense of joy, empathy, and kinship.

Let it pass like this?

“Not a chance.”

Ajini’s message was a great provocation and a response.

I never thought I would agree with that loser Ajini after such a long time.

—Crack!

With a grinding sound from my teeth, sparks flew in Dayoung’s eyes.

‘Where did this rock roll from!’

How dare a piece of rock try to get into the bonds of Heroes!

After a long time… I felt pumped up.

“Hehe, I sense something blue.”

Once again, Dayoung twisted Bbaebbaejwa’s neck 720 degrees as she rushed to prepare for her outing.

***

[“Thank you, Friede. It’s my first time dancing with a girl like this; you really take care of my mental. Hehe.”]

[“Umm… If you don’t mind, can you call me ‘Eunha’ when you send private messages? It’s just a comfortable name for me.”]

[“Oh, I’m not saying I want to know your real name, so don’t misunderstand! I know that a non-streaming streamer is sensitive about personal info too.”]

[“Can I call you ‘sister’ instead? According to the profile, you seem older than me…”]

[“If you don’t mind, I’ll give you this. I also stream for the team level. Let’s plan for a duo later.”]

[“I’ll be waiting for you, sister.”]

Sitting back in the chair, I twirled and recalled what happened yesterday.

Lotus, no, I should call her Eunha now.

Contrary to the image I had of her being aggressive and stubborn, she was surprisingly agreeable.

Anyway, if human relationships have such a positive side effect, there’s nothing wrong with it.

Duoing with a pro gamer is something stirring and exciting from a gamer’s perspective.

As someone who enjoys games, the sense of achievement from being recognized for one’s gaming skills is something special.

Moreover, playing as a team with someone I’ve already beaten gives you a strange feeling.

The reason I’m stuffing these thoughts into my head is simply that I’ve gotten lazy.

Thanks to that, I’ve been announcing breaks in a row on my broadcast.

The Sweetwitch panel and my YouTube channel were engulfed in flames and hooks.

Perhaps it’s because I’ve been pouring my energy into the brawl tournament.

There’s always a pressure about defeat.

During that time, winning without loss was also quite an accomplishment, so it’s not unusual to have a wise man’s time going on.

You can’t keep stew-cooking indefinitely, after all.

“The ending was good too.”

Right now, I wanted to feel the aftertaste of the ending.

A vlog that came up as the last episode of the brawl tournament.

I was slightly annoyed at being filmed without permission at first with Lotus, but with the distance, my face was not revealed, and I managed to overlook it after asking for permission to disclose it.

The video of dancing with Eunha at the end was, even I had to admit, excellently done.

Perhaps when this video goes public, I was curious and eager to see how the community would react.

Anyway, looking at the results of that video, I thought it turned out to be quite impressive.

It’s safe to say it wonderfully decorated the final act of the event league.

As I wasted away time lazily and idly—

—Ding!

The familiar notification sound from my smartphone tickled my ears.

What appeared on the screen was a short message from someone familiar.

[Dayoung: If you don’t mind, would you like to go shopping together?]

“Huh?”

It was quite a sudden date invitation.
