[TS] Obsessed Gamer: The Ultimate Return – Chapter 312

BJ Jjuhsim.

One of those unforgettable names for me.

– Jjuhsim lol


– Wow, this is really wild


– Gross fr


– Is he still alive?


– He’s applying for this?


– fr lol

…but to be honest, he was also a figure that had faded from my memory over time.

It had been quite a while since I had properly broadcasted, and recently, I had been busy with team and tournament-related matters.

But… no matter how you slice it, meeting like this changes things.

To be frank, it was a comment that didn’t require deep thought.

I was just trying to play a game before bed, there was no need to get entangled with old grudges.

I think I can vaguely guess what prompted him to apply.

After the incident between JJuhsim and me, he had taken a serious hit and declared a long hiatus.

On top of that, even his once-thriving YouTube channel took a massive blow, with subscriber counts plummeting.

In cases like Red TV, no matter how severe the incident was, if you just take a few months off to reflect, it’s usually possible to bounce back. But with YouTube, that’s tough.

Previously, JJuhsim had been more active on YouTube than his mainstay, Red TV, which is a fundamental reason he’s in such a tough spot now.

And now, he randomly says he wants to game together after seeing my stream?

Honestly, it sent chills down my spine.

There’s really no need to get involved.

I naturally pretended not to see the comments and scrolled down.

Since there were so many applicants, picking two from the bunch was tricky, but I chose some usernames that looked familiar.

“How about this person and this person? They should be fine.”

The streamers I picked weren’t major, but they had decent recognition.

– Mushi


– lol


– Not unnoticeable


– Bug cut!


– Ignoring it


– Honestly, there’s no reason for an outlaw to clean JJuhsim’s reputation lol


– fr

Even though I explicitly turned my back, the audience’s reaction wasn’t bad.

That was to be expected.

No matter how much JJuhsim was once a major streamer related to Legends of League, his public image is literally in the gutter now.

Even if I didn’t want to be involved with JJuhsim, it was clear the viewers would understand.

– JJuhsim is crossing the line fr


– for real


– But dude, no conscience lol how could you apply for this


– But isn’t JJuhsim not even live right now?


– So are you watching Outlaw’s stream?


– fr, chills


– Wow… that’s insane


– Is this real? JJuhsim is truly legendary…

There was a brief stir, but as planned, I picked one streamer after another to play FoManz.

“Okay, I’ll go with NyuyeNyuye for now. Is NyuyeNyuye here?”

– Yep


– I’m live


– They applied, so why wouldn’t they be here lol


– fr


– Seems like they’re a bit out of it lol

I didn’t want to admit it, but honestly, they did seem a bit out of it.

After all, JJuhsim was a complicated person for me in many ways.

Just then, when only one spot was left.

‘Gyaaaaaaak’ gifted 10 balloons.

“Didn’t JJuhsim get picked?”

– Oh snap


– Uh… oh no…!


– That’s a bit… lol


– Stop


– Don’t cross the line


– Definitely not JJuhsim

Most reactions were like, ‘No way, JJuhsim is a bit much…’ but there were still some who thought otherwise.

No matter what anyone says, if JJuhsim ends up in the FoManz party, it would probably be uncomfortable, but also entertaining for the viewers.

– It’d be super fun lol


– fr


– This was a funny setup


– Go go go go


– Let’s do it


– fr


– gg

– Are you guys serious?


– dw dw


– Big deal incoming?


– We’ll see…


– Looks like she’s testing the waters

It was no surprise.

Most of Red TV’s viewers were addicted to stimulation.

Thus, some of the viewers were desperately hoping I would pick JJuhsim.

They were looking for any situation that would lead to uncomfortable interactions between JJuhsim and me.

Because, it would be way more entertaining than just playing the game normally.

Sigh.

Of course, the viewers probably knew this too.

They understood there was zero chance of me picking JJuhsim in the current situation.

No matter how much an internet streamer is expected to cater to viewers, this was clearly crossing a line.

However, no matter how I reacted, it wasn’t exactly a pleasant situation.

The mere fact that JJuhsim’s name popped up on my streaming screen was already problematic.

Tch.

For whatever reason, I had no intention of getting entangled with JJuhsim anymore, so I promptly invited another streamer.

I didn’t want to drag the topic of JJuhsim any further.

“Alright, let’s go with Jaem-min and NyuyeNyuye, along with Bumhyeon.”

– What a joke


– This is right


– What about JJuhsim?


– No, JJuhsim fans back off, criminal scum


– fr


– But has JJuhsim even apologized to the outlaw? lol


– Did he? I don’t think so?


– Wow, zero conscience for real

Leaving those viewers behind, I continued with the FoManz content.

This time, I selected NyuyeNyuye and Bumhyeon as my partners.

All of them were mid-tier streamers focusing on Legends of League.

I figured it’d be more comfortable to play with people interested in Legends of League than random strangers, so I picked these two.

“Okay then, NyuyeNyuye and Bumhyeon, please DM me. I’ll invite you to the voice chat room.”

Whether they had been watching the stream or not, NyuyeNyuye and Bumhyeon sent me direct messages right away.

I sequentially sent them the invite link to the voice chat room.

[You can enter here.]

Not long after, the notification of new participants chimed twice in the voice chat room.

Ding—

[“Ah, mic test. Can you hear my voice?”]


“Yes, loud and clear.”


[“Oh wow, Outlaw, nice to meet you. I’m a huge fan.”]


“Ha ha… nice to meet you too.”

The first to join was Bumhyeon.

Bumhyeon was a master-tier streamer among those in Legends of League, having at one point maintained a challenger tier, so we had crossed paths in solo queue a few times back in the day.

Soon after, NyuyeNyuye joined in as well.

[“Ah, hello…”]


“Hello.”


[“It’s really Outlaw… Ah, what do I do? I’m super nervous.”]

– lol


– Oh, it’s NyuyeNyuye


– NyuyeNyuye is frozen


– Cute


– Hey hey


– Nyu-yay


– hahaha

The reception from the audience felt quite different compared to when Bumhyeon arrived.

NyuyeNyuye also focused on Legends of League as a streamer, but was not particularly high-ranking.

A common so-called bronze-silver user.

Having at least one character like this for games makes it more interesting.

Just then, Bumhyeon spoke up.

[“Are we the three of us playing?”]

At Bumhyeon’s question, I realized that there were three of us in the voice chat room including me.

One slot was empty.

“No, there’s one more. Just a moment. They said they’d definitely come…”

I finally shot a message to Kim Jae-min.

[Me: Where are you?]


[Kim Jae-min: Did everyone already gather? lol]

There are always those types of people.

The ones who only make a move when everyone else is ready.

‘Anyhow…’

Kim Jae-min soon joined us.

Ding—

[“Hiyo.”]


[“Oh, Jaem-min? Hello.”]


[“Hello…”]


“Okay, let’s dive right in.”

I didn’t want to waste time, so I immediately launched FoManz.

Since I had already set up during the member recruitment, it was quick to proceed.

[“Ah, hold on. I need to install FoManz.”]

Of course, no matter how much I prepared, it wasn’t the same for Kim Jae-min.

“I told you, didn’t I? You should have done it beforehand.”

As I scolded Kim Jae-min, NyuyeNyuye spoke up in a timid voice.

[“…I’m sorry. I haven’t installed FoManz yet either…”]


– Oh no


– Uh-oh…!


– No, them?


– How do you mess this up lol


– Ah lol, gotta prepare beforehand

“No, that… I wasn’t targeting NyuyeNyuye…”

– hahahahahaha


– Is this real?


– It’s suffocating


– NyuyeNyuye is jumping


– Meanwhile, Kim Jae-min just poured oil on the burning house.

[“Oh, why did you do that, sis? Seriously, that’s just not mature.”]


“…You’re annoying.”

– Jaem-min lol


– What, did you treat only Getback like a wall?


– Getback who was silent, crying again lol


– This is too funny lol

The chat exploded.

Whether it was a blessing or a curse, it seemed like the chaos JJuhsim stirred was quickly fading away.

This was really… Kim Jae-min’s presence felt like a double-edged sword for me, but right now, I felt grateful.

[“Oh, I’ve installed it all.”]


[“Me too.”]

Finally, NyuyeNyuye and Kim Jae-min had completed their FoManz installation.

Bumhyeon was a streamer who occasionally played FoManz, so he didn’t need any extra prep time.

“Alright then, let’s go.”

After a lot of twists and turns, FoManz finally started.
