Chapter 221

The battle quickly reached its peak . The two of them collided several times in an instant before stepping back simultaneously as if they had made an agreement to do so .

‘She seems trickier than I thought? Warriors of the same level will never win against her . ’

Lee Hoon went over the battle .  Clearly, he had dealt out several effective hits .  A normal warrior would’ve received several wounds or even entered a near-death state .  However, the class of the woman called ‘Leah’ was a priest .  She used heals to regain her health and rushed forth like a zombie . Her health didn’t go up little by little like how a paladin’s would . Instead, it filled up quickly .

‘He really has raised a monster . ’

Lee Hoon’s admiration surpassed being focused on Leah and turned to Alley Leader . The way Alley Leader was able to find and nurture these players showed that his discerning eye was really great .

‘However, there is an awkwardness to the battle . I think it is because she has only played a priest . ’

Lee Hoon could’ve fought in moderation, but if he didn’t press now, there would be no reason for Alley Leader to have called him .  He quickly kicked off from the ground and charged forward .  Yuri calmly took one step toward the approaching Lee Hoon .  There was a sharp clang . Yuri received a momentary opportunity and wielded her greatsword .

However, Lee Hoon didn’t respond to Yuri’s attack like before .

‘Now . ’ 

Lee Hoon dodged Yuri’s attack and stabbed her shoulder using Heavy Blow, a skill he learned during the first time he changed his class .

‘It was perfect . . . ?’ 

However, Lee Hoon heard a sound that was completely different from his expectations . Yuri’s outfit was far from armor, so he could never hear the sound of his sword hitting metal .

‘Shield?’ 

He looked closely and saw a pale blue layer wrapped around Yuri’s body .  It was Shield, one of the essential skills a priest learned .  

‘Using it in that short moment?’

“Hah . . . ” Lee Hoon let out a stunned sound as he forgot he was in a spar .

Yuri was truly a monster .  She didn’t just have good skills; she was also full of courage .  She used the correct skills even when the sword was swung in front of her eyes .  Still, this didn’t mean it was impossible for him to win… Just like right now .

Lee Hoon released a small blade of sword energy, and it flew toward Yuri .  She naturally created a shield to block his sword .  The shield was destroyed by the sword energy .  At this moment, Lee Hoon appeared in front of Yuri and lowered his long sword toward the top of her head .

It was Yuri’s defeat . Lee Hoon’s sword slowly descended toward Yuri .

“Stop!”

At this time, Hyeonu appeared between the two people and seized Lee Hoon’s sword .

-Wow, the timing of this appearance .

-It is just a blade, a blade .

-By the way, how is he holding the sword with his hands? Is he using sword energy?

-Don’t you see the darkness around Alley Leader’s hands right now? Guess he’s also using magic power?

Viewers were thrilled to see Alley Leader appearing at the critical moment . Their goddess had almost died under Heder’s sword .  Then Alley Leader appeared silently and saved her like a prince riding a white horse .

“I still see some lacking parts . Isn’t that right, Heder?”

They were Hyeonu’s words, but Lee Hoon accepted them naturally .

“If you supplement her skills, she will be able to get more than just a bronze medal . Her current specs are enough . I think there are very few players who can cope with this style of combat . ”

“That’s what we need to do until the next stream, including during today . I need Heder’s help,” Hyeonu said .

Then he reached out to Yuri, who was sitting on the floor .  She grabbed Hyeonu’s hand that was in front of her .

“Well done . You did a great job . He is a famous proxy knight . You aren’t . You can be confident,” Hyeonu whispered as he used his hand to pull Yuri up .

Carrots were needed to help her avoid feeling defeated . The whip and carrot methods showed the highest efficiency when properly harmonized .

“I know, Oppa . I won’t give up . I’ll work harder . ”

“Yes . We’ll have to work hard . ”

-Wow, aren’t they sweet?

-A friend’s little sister has become a girlfriend?

-Don’t tell me . . .  No, our goddess can’t do that!

-Down with Alley Leader! Release Tang-E and the goddess!

Viewers showed deep anger when they saw the two people whispering, just like in the last stream .  Some viewers even likened Alley Leader to a demon king . The captive princess and hostage were Leah and Tang-E .

“Yes, you’re delusional . So let’s take the time to find a solution to the problem . I wasn’t just watching . I took a video . ”

At Hyeonu’s words, the point of view of the streaming changed to Alley Leader’s perspective .  Then a video started to play . “I’ll explain while watching . It was perfect at first . You can do better than this . Of course, just do as I say . In any case, it was good . ”

-Ah, let’s not show off .

-Can’t you be a bit more plain?

-There is a lot of explanation today .

-It is different when he’s alone, but I can’t believe he’s still boasting like this even though he called two people here . . .

-After all, he is shameless as a masked person .

Viewers protested against Hyeonu’s high self-esteem . However, this was an act suitable for the character of Alley Leader, so Hyeonu never intended to stop it .

“This is the scene that’s the problem . She was too hasty using the shield . A sword energy of that degree can be hit directly . There might be damage, but it is never a loss because it has decreased the opponent’s skill by one . In addition, Leah’s class is a priest . Who cares about losing some health? She can heal herself . If it were me, I would’ve deflected it and run in the opposite direction . ”

-Please stop!!!

-Refrain from presenting facts!

-Is this feedback or self PR?

Hyeonu watched the video for a long time before looking at Yuri and Lee Hoon . “So the two of you, what do you think Leah needs right now?” 

“Me? Um . . .  Experience?” Yuri seemed to be temporarily troubled by Hyeonu’s question, but she soon gave an answer .

“Then what about Heder?”

“I think so as well . It is the norm that psychological battles with other people are based on experience,” Heder answered .

Hyeonu nodded with satisfaction at their words .  “That’s right . You have to gain experience . Heder and I will simulate many situations for Leah . This is also true for the viewers, so try to focus . The recorded video is also on my channel, Alley Leader . ”

Hyeonu didn’t forget to get some publicity .

 

*** 

 

Yuri gasped and threw her greatsword to the arena floor as she barely supported herself .  “Hah . . . ”

Hyeonu, the masked man standing in front of her, approached . “I will end it here today . I’ll send you the stream’s video, so be sure to watch it . ”

“I understand . I’ll review it,” Yuri said .

Lee Hoon marveled at the sight of them .  The ruthless Alley Leader was great and Leah who silently persisted was also great . In particular, Alley Leader’s ability to accurately grasp the opponent’s limitations and push them was beyond words .

‘There is a lot for me to learn . ’

It wasn’t only that . Alley Leader had an eloquence that led the stream, which could be seen from him chatting with comments that were difficult to even see properly .  There was nothing that wasn’t outstanding . If there was just one blemish to be pointed out . . .

‘Isn’t he a bit too proud of himself?’

A smile appeared on Lee Hoon’s face . Then it occurred at this moment .

“Heder! Come here!”

Lee Hoon instinctively turned his head at the call . Alley Leader beckoned to Lee Hoon .

‘Ah! Is it that time?’

It seemed right seeing that Leah wasn’t around .  While Lee Hoon was thinking about other things, the stream was coming to an end .  So what did this mean? It meant it was time to give Lee Hoon his five minutes .

“Yes, Alley Leader . ” 

Lee Hoon took heavy steps . He had practiced it again and again in the mirror, but his heart shook the moment that time arrived .

‘Don’t shake and just tell the truth,’ Lee Hoon thought as he stood next to Hyeonu .

Then Hyeonu turned to the audience . “Heder, who helped me stream today, has something to say to the viewers . It will take around 5 minutes, so please listen . ”

Hyeonu knew what Lee Hoon was going to say, but he pretended that he didn’t know . It was because he was certain that his words wouldn’t help .

‘In addition . . . his skills are really great . ’

Hyeonu thought it would be okay to recruit Lee Hoon to Crescent Moon .  In Hyeonu’s eyes, Lee Hoon’s skills were no less than that of the ace of any guild or professional team . However, his low level, which was due to the time he spent as a proxy knight, was an issue . However, it was possible to cover this up because he was confident .

‘Of course, this part needs to work out well too . . . ’

Lee Hoon took one step ahead of Hyeonu and started to talk boldly . “I asked Alley Leader for some time for only one reason . I want to apologize . ”

-Apologize?

-Why apologize?

-What did he do wrong?

-Why do it here?

The viewers didn’t like it .  They didn’t come to see Heder’s apology; they came to watch Alley Leader’s stream . Lee Hoon knew this as well .

“It is natural to ask why I’m doing this here . I can say the reason is something like this . Alley Leader’s streaming has the most viewers and views . Thus, my apology will spread faster . ”

Lee Hoon pulled out a mask from his inventory .  It was a mask with impressive red horns . There were many viewers who recognized it .

-Isn’t that the mask of the streamer Red Devil? Is he a fan?

-That isn’t Alley Leader’s mask . Why is he carrying that around?

-Then this means . . .  What is this?

-It must be him, you idiot .

-Heder’s a streamer? That can’t work .

-A proxy knight has become a streamer?

Viewers noticed that Lee Hoon’s identity was the streamer Red Devil, and their reactions were chilly . Proxy knights weren’t doing anything illegal, but they weren’t favored .

“I also know this . It is my fault . That’s why I’m here to apologize . I apologize for acting as a proxy knight . I won’t ask you to forgive me . ”

Lee Hoon didn’t just bow his back . He got on his knees and bowed .

-Isn’t this just acting?

-Red Devil’s streaming is good, so he’s washing his image?

-It is possible .

-Or he could be sincerely apologizing .  The possibility is there for that too .

The chat window was still chilly .  Any player who took part in the arena couldn’t help feeling bad about proxy knights .  A few months ago, the number of proxy knights had increased dramatically, and the players’ dissatisfaction with the proxy knights grew .

Lee Hoon read the public opinion in the chat window . Then he started saying his prepared remarks .  “I’ve already quit my job as a proxy knight, and I’m reflecting . This is a sign that I’ve started atoning for my past . ”

Just then, Hyeonu flicked his finger, and an image appeared in front of the viewers .
