Chapter 214
-What is this . . . ?
-Did I hear it correctly? Really?
-A priest is coming out? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-This can’t be . An archer isn’t the limit . . . A priest . . .
The viewers fell into a state of a mental breakdown as a group . Priest—it was a class that couldn’t be seen in the arena . At first, they were curious and could play one or two ranking battles . However, that was it . After suffering a disastrous defeat, the priest players never looked at the arena again . It was absolutely impossible . It was simply impossible to get to the bronze tier! All players said this and took it for granted .
Now Alley Leader declared that he would break the taboo .
“Why can’t a priest do it? That is their problem . This time, I’ve brought a great priest . Please come out . ”
Hyeonu clapped and a long-haired beauty slowly walked to Hyeonu’s side . There were many reactions from the viewers who saw her . There was one noticeable reaction among them .
-Uh? She seems familiar?
-I’ve seen this face before?
-She isn’t an ordinary person .
-I know I’ve seen her frequently in Argon’s streams . She is Argon’s sister . She sometimes comes out, so it is impossible not to know .
-Oh, I should call him Brother-in-law, not Argon . Brother-in-law!
There were viewers who knew Yuri’s identity .
“Hello . I am Streamer Argon’s little sister, Leah . ”
Leah was the pseudonym used by Yuri during Yeongchan’s stream . It was a pseudonym she made after hearing Yeongchan’s advice that things would be different after her face was known . Yuri looked into Hyeonu’s eyes like she was familiar with him and then bowed her head, with her eyes curved up in a crescent shape . Many viewers were knocked down by her appearance .
“Everyone, focus on her skills, not her appearance . Our Leah is very good-looking, but her skills are even better . In short, she is the best priest I know . ”
“Oppa, don’t overdo it . What should I do if I collapse?” Yuri’s eyes were constantly in the crescent shape as she spoke .
This was the second time Hyeonu had seen this type of Yuri .
‘This . . . ’ The flustered Hyeonu raised his hand and touched his mask .
“Sigh . . . ” Hyeonu sighed with relief as he felt the rough sensation of the mask under his fingertips . If he hadn’t been wearing a mask, then his embarrassed appearance would’ve been revealed to millions of viewers . It wasn’t that he was attracted to her as a woman . It was just that Yuri had looked like this in the past when she confessed that she liked him .
Hyeonu opened his mouth and said, “Let me explain my plans for the future . Today, we will have a brief look at Leah’s ability . After this, I will make plans for the future according to her combat style . Everyone, do you all know by now? It is already the third time, so I don’t think there is anyone who doesn’t know the process . ”
-It is the third and final one .
-Yes, it’s the last one . . .
-So what if we don’t know? This is the last one . . .
Hyeonu frowned at the chat window that was getting filled with the same content . “Isn’t it the last one? I have to take this step back to step forward . It is a short break for a big event . Yes? Don’t you already know that? Sigh, I shouldn’t have said anything . ”
‘It looks good . ’ Yuri looked at the chat window as Hyeonu communicating with the viewers . It was something she would’ve never imagined before . However, it worked well and looked fun .
“Then what should I do?” Yuri was caught up in Hyeonu’s enjoyment .
***
“I will briefly make Leah’s status window public . Of course, she agreed to it in advance . ”
[Status Window]
[Level: 201
Class: Priest of the Moon
Title: A priest blessed by the goddess who leads the moonlight .
Stats: Strength: 100 (+230) Agility: 100 (+230) Physique: 120 (+230) Divine Power: 1,200 (+480)
Remaining stat points: 0]
Yuri’s status window was gorgeous even if it wasn’t as good as Hyeonu’s . Her stats were above those of the average player . This meant that Yuri also had the specifications of a decent ranker .
‘Why is her level so high?’ Hyeonu wondered .
Hyeonu played Arena for a long time because it was his job . However, Yuri was different . She worked part-time and went to school . It didn’t make sense for her to have such a high level .
‘Did she enter a big guild?’
Otherwise, this rapid level-up couldn’t be explained . However, it was impossible to question her now as they were in a live stream .
“Everyone, the specs are quite high . Maybe a love call will come from a number of large guilds . Perhaps not just a love call . She is so pretty that I might propose . ” Hyeonu told a joke that came to his mind in an instant .
However, neither the viewers nor Yuri were laughing . Hyeonu was the only one smiling .
-Ah . . . Has his age doubled?
-The level of humor today is very low .
-I’d like to buy ears that haven’t heard such humor . 5 gold coins .
-Wow, Leah isn’t smiling . What a lousy joke .
Hyeonu’s head turned quietly away from the chat window to check Yuri’s expression after seeing the messages . She didn’t look very good .
Hyeonu turned his head back . “To be honest, her specs are much higher than Choi Yoon’s specs . They are really high . The difference is that she is a priest and doesn’t have the skills . In other words, you can think of her as a nice-looking can . Only the outer appearance is gorgeous . ”
-Look at that spiteful tongue .
-He isn’t kind even to his friend’s younger sister .
-Everyone is equal in front of Alley Leader .
Hyeonu’s words were cold but true . Just based on the stats in the status window and the stats increase from her buffs, Yuri’s stats were clearly good enough to gain a bronze medal . No, even if they were lacking, Hyeonu’s education and Yuri’s talent were enough to overcome it .
“The stats are equal or inferior to what’s needed for a bronze medal . It isn’t a big difference and can be ignored . The problem are her skills . She has no Weapons Mastery, so her attack power is low . Additionally, she has no instant-type skills . Thus, it is almost impossible for her to link her attacks with instantaneous attack power . But . . . ” Hyeonu paused for a moment .
The messages in the chat window also stopped .
Hyeonu smiled and continued, “Choi Yoon had common skills and Weapons Mastery . He believed in me and the counter skills . I am here . Believe in me again . Skills? They might be missing, but there won’t be a problem gaining a bronze medal with Leah’s stats . I will show it to you . ”
Hyeonu was confident . This was the result of his sufficient calculations .
‘Yuri’s situation is better than Choi Yoon’s situation in the past . ’
It was just that the viewers were trapped in the framework of Yuri’s class, a ‘priest’, and never thought about the possibility . The stereotype was too scary . It made them turn away from the truth in front of them .
-Of course .
-This level of bluffing . . .
-Isn’t it also a skill to be able to bring a priest and then bluff like this?
-Yes, I acknowledge it .
‘Yes . Keep criticizing me . Then it will be more dramatic . ’
Hyeonu was pleased with the response from the viewers . The finale of Alley Leader Academy Season 1 seemed like it would be very satisfying .
“I will summon a scarecrow for us to look at Leah’s skills . Everyone, you will probably be shocked . ”
Hyeonu summoned the scarecrow as naturally as breathing . Then he still continued speaking naturally .
“Leah’s weapon is a greatsword . It is a great weapon with a heavy touch . I once fell deeply in love with the charm of the greatsword . ”
-Greatsword?
-With that appearance? It doesn’t look suitable .
-Shouldn’t she use a weapon like Reina’s? Something like a long sword .
-Let’s not judge by appearance . The gap moe is very attractive .
The viewers who heard Hyeonu’s words were stunned . The greatsword was a weapon that no one had anticipated . It was a sword that didn’t match with Leah’s appearance .
“I played the warrior class a lot in other games . I usually used the greatsword . ” Yuri drove a nail into the audience’s reaction .
“Take out the greatsword I gave you earlier . It is the best weapon to use with your stats . Probably . ” Hyeonu whispered very softly in Yuri’s ears so that the audience couldn’t hear .
‘The greatsword he gave me?’ Yuri thought .
Before the streaming started, Hyeonu had handed Yuri a very dark red greatsword . At that time, she had received it without thinking and placed it in her inventory . Now that Hyeonu requested for her to take it out, she was curious about the information of the item .
“Understood, Oppa . I’ll do well . I’ll try,” Yuri expressed her gratitude in a small voice .
Then her expression changed when she checked the information of the greatsword . She was so surprised that her eyes widened as she finally knew that what Hyeonu said weren’t empty words .
[Flower of Despair]
[A greatsword used by an ancient noble who led the battlefield to victory .
Rating: Unique
Restrictions: 300 strength, 250 physique .
Durability: 780/780
Attack Power: 720
Effect: There is a normal chance of generating a shock wave of one meter when attacking (but the power of the shock wave is proportional to the player’s magic power) . ]
The attack power wasn’t high compared to the wearer restrictions . However, the effect of the unique item was superb . It produced a shock wave proportional to the amount of magic power . Although it was a probability effect, Yuri had a high divine power stat and a skill .
-What are the two of them whispering?
-Teach us as well!
-We have the right to know!!!
The viewers were jealous of Hyeonu and Yuri’s affectionate appearance . Perhaps Hyeonu was conscious of such comments because he stopped talking to Yuri and started tending to the stream again . “Let’s look at the duel between the summoned scarecrow and Leah . ”
-Wahhhh!
-Is it a talent comparable to Reina?
-It can’t be compared to Reina . Reina is already at the top .
-She also has a melee class .
-Leah is a priest . At most, she is a priest who can fight well .
The viewers who were jealous of Alley Leader and Yuri’s closeness were swept away by Hyeonu’s change in topic . The scarecrow summoned by Hyeonu was a scarecrow with the highest difficulty . He made this choice after taking into regard Yuri’s level and specifications . She might not have a combat class, but the scarecrow was actually lacking considering her specs . However, this was the scarecrow that had the highest difficulty, and it would stay that way unless a new patch was applied .
“Then I’m starting . Please look at it once even if it doesn’t meet your expectations . I’ve been fighting for a long time,” Yuri said .
The audience melted at Yuri’s attempt to be cute .
-That’s it . I understand . Who will say anything?
-It is natural that a priest can’t fight, right . . .
-If anyone is expecting too much, then I will go to him . . .
There were already many fans of Yuri .
Yuri glanced at the chat messages before pulling out her sword and starting to move toward the scarecrow . Simultaneously, the scarecrow started to move like a powered electronic device . The scarecrow saw its goal and ran toward the woman in the white robe who was approaching it .
Yuri and the scarecrow soon collided .
