A Basement-Dwelling Loser, the Inquisitor – Chapter 71

[Rene]

[Today, I will be playing AOS mode]

[New Dimension | 1,503 viewers | 00:38:36]

“What characters do you usually play in AOS mode…?”

─ Looks like they often play their main job.

─ Just whatever feels good.

─ Choose based on the lane.

─ I don’t even play AOS…

The replies from the Rebongi to my question were all over the place.

Still, the most common answer was choosing based on the lane.

Well, considering the characteristics of the AOS game genre, it might be the obvious choice.

No matter how different the AOS mode of New Dimension is from typical AOS games, it still goes by the name AOS.

─ Does anyone know what the leader usually does?

─ I think they just play as the Traveler.

─ Are you saying you’ll play that trash character, the number one in AOS mode?

“I usually go with Traveler…”

As one Rebongi said, I chose the Traveler no matter which lane I picked.

Familiarity was an unbeatable advantage.

─ Where are you going for the lane?

─ What position are you going for?

“Which position am I going for…?”

─ Anyone can see you’re a top king!

─ For real, lol.

─ From my experience, usually, the crazy ones go top.

─ Are you calling the leader a top king crazy female?

─ Can’t imagine Rene not being a top king…

─ 100% top king.

─ A female top king is kind of rare.

For some reason, the Rebongi were under a serious misconception.

Sure, I often go top, but I’m nothing like a top king.

There’s no way I would be the same as those who mindlessly fight and blame the allies when they lose.

It’s not like I choose to go top willingly.

“Jungle, yeah. I’ve been pushed to top a lot lately, but my main position is jungle.”

─ ?

─ This idiot is going jungle?

─ Rene, don’t try to act smart for no reason…

─ ?

─ Info: This idiot has 20 match records, and all 20 are top.

─ Oh, someone who thought they could go jungle just came back after hearing they were smart, lol.

What’s the deal?

Why doesn’t anyone believe me?

I’m not lying; I started in jungle mode of New Dimension and played jungle the most.

But at some point, jungle became more popular, making it harder to go jungle, and the lane I ended up in most often was top, leading to this situation.

Well, such incidents hardly occurred when ranking decided positions from the start… but I never really wanted to go to that extent.

─ Rene, read what’s written on the screen…

─ “I’m a fool.”

“…Everyone, if I go jungle and carry, will you acknowledge me…?”

─ Show us and let’s see.

─ Only if you can, lol.

With the Rebongi’s resolute words, I immediately began matching.

And the moment the waiting time for matching exceeded 5 seconds, the game was found, and I immediately accepted.

Then, the sound indicating the game had started echoed, and vision shifted dramatically.

[Inquisition Officer: I’ll go jungle.]

“Can’t you give me the jungle? I’m confident about it.”

“I’ll go bot with him.”

“I’m going mid.”

As soon as I arrived at the altar, where five teammates, including myself, gathered, I quickly typed in the chat I had prepared beforehand, and it was much faster than the swordsman’s request to concede the jungle.

The swordsman stated that his main position was jungle and asked for a concession, but I couldn’t afford to do that now.

I had to crush the naysayers who thought of me as a real fool.

[Inquisition Officer: Sorry.]

“…Well, it can’t be helped. I’m not confident, but I’ll try my best.”

Fortunately, our positional competition didn’t escalate into a fight, and I was able to go to jungle.

─ I’m really curious how the game will turn out, lol.

─ Jungle really requires a lot of brainpower; are you sure you’re okay with that?

─ Rene, now that this has happened, show us what you’ve got.

Most were teasing me, but there were also chats here and there cheering me on.

That alone gave me enough reason to muster up my spirits.

The character I chose was the Traveler. And the weapon, of course, was the Warhammer.

The passive was Agility. The basic skills were Acceleration, Slippery Move, and Leap. The ultimate was Armor of Frost.

And since I was in the jungle, one spell was obviously dismantle, and the other was Blink.

─ Wait, you’re really going with the Traveler?

─ Isn’t that going to make the power struggle super imbalanced?

─ If my team’s jungle in ranked is a Traveler and picked skills like that, I’d dodge, lol.

─ Just looking at it gives me a headache.

─ This is right, isn’t it, Rene???

─ What’s the advantage of Traveler? (I really don’t know.)

“…Hmph. You’ll be surprised later…?”

Lastly, for the traits, I selected Pursuit, Blood Rage, Last Stand, and Heightened Awareness.

Top is a Spear Master. Mid is a Shaman. ADC is a Hunter, and the supporter is… a Heretic.

“I’ll dodge.”

─ ?

─ Oh, f*, lol.

─ Crazy girl.

★

[It’s really tough to play the game with so many Heretics around….]

─ Fact: It’s tough because it takes 30 minutes to dodge.

─ Can’t you just hit them really hard once?

It took a long 30 minutes for Rene to start the AOS mode.

Thanks to dodging three times, I couldn’t play a game with a Heretic and the ally.

Anyway, overcoming such hardships, the game finally started.

As before, I chose the Traveler with the Warhammer, and my skills and traits remained unchanged.

“Hmm….”

And Jaehun, who was watching Rene’s broadcast, sighed.

He had no expectations that Rene would play jungle well.

Jungle in New Dimension requires thinking a lot more than usual.

Unlike existing AOS games, it has the clear reason of limited vision.

Unlike laners, who can focus on the lane, junglers have to grasp the overall situation and make judgments with only limited vision and the minimap.

There was no need to explain how difficult that task is.

Well, thanks to that, being good at jungle in New Dimension became something of a certification that one is indeed smart, so it gained popularity.

Regardless, jungle in New Dimension is a position that requires a lot of thought. And Jaehun knew that Rene… to put it bluntly, was foolish.

It was no surprise that “Idiot” was a fitting nickname.

There was no way such a person could thrive in jungle; this was Jaehun’s conclusion.

[I’ll be going in here.]

─ ?

─ Sis, I’m a jungle main, going there really is absurd.

─ Crazy girl.

─ Do you want to die or something, lol?

“…What’s that about?”

And as expected, Rene began her incomprehensible actions.

If someone knew just a little about AOS mode in New Dimension, they would say it seemed like throwing the game.

As evidence, the chat window went wild with laughter at Rene’s actions, and Jaehun sighed in hopelessness.

[Now, I’ve killed, right?]

─ ?

─ What the hell?

─ How did you do that, Tenren?

“What the…?”

However, there was one fact that they could never know, which Jaehun could never know.

[Now would be a good time to go here…?]

─ Looks like a total fluke.

─ This time, Rene, you’ll really die.

─ Do you think such a play will work multiple times, lol?

[If I do this here, I can gain a huge advantage…!]

─ What on earth are you doing, lol?

─ Today, my common sense is collapsing…

─ It seems like you’re playing a totally different game, lol.

Rene’s seemingly incomprehensible judgment was a product carved from thousands of battles in that other world.

【Title: I seriously don’t understand why it turned out like that;】

(Rene’s successful jungle ganks compilation.mp4)

I get that she preemptively secured vision to grasp the position, but…

How on earth does that lead to winning the fight in the jungle?

Plus, she’s a Traveler who picked Acceleration, Slippery Move, and Leap, lol.
