Chapter 725

Hyeonu sat on the sofa in the living room with a steaming mug. Then he turned on the laptop that was on the table in front of the sofa. What he saw on his laptop screen was his A-World channel. Hyeonu was waiting to receive reports about those in New Moon, but he had not received a single report. It seemed that the investigation Hyeonu and Nike Management had done wasn’t in vain.

‘It didn’t appear today?’

Hyeonu confirmed that the comments remained unchanged and checked the comments on other videos.

‘I have to check something else.’

Nike Management also checked every one, but Hyeonu wasn’t satisfied and checked it with his own eyes whenever he had the time. Hyeonu clicked on the video that was uploaded at dawn today. It was an edited video of yesterday’s stream.

-The extract is good~

-I liked, subscribed, and left comments. [email protected]

-I also want to have rare items.

-What items did you get after killing the demon kings?

‘There isn’t a problem.’

Most of the comments were questions or appreciation related to the video, while others were to participate in the item sharing event that Hyeonu held regularly.

‘What is this?’

At this time, some comments entered Hyeonu’s eyes. These comments stated that there was something unfortunate about the video.

-Honestly, it is all good but one thing is a shame. The emperor came back in tatters, but I couldn’t see that battle. 

-That was all in the other streamers’ videos.

-Apart from Baler, the rest of the videos about the demon kings are only on Alley Leader’s channel.

-I also think it is a pity. The battle between Baler and the emperor frankly wasn’t ordinary. It would’ve been better with your commentary.

Their regret was that the battle between the emperor and Baler hadn’t been captured in Hyeonu’s video. Instead, Hyeonu’s video contained the battles between Hyeonu and Munas, the emperor and the rest of the demon kings, and Lebron and the same demon kings.

Hyeonu had given commentary while he watched the battles between the demon kings and the emperor and Lebron. The other streamers hadn’t done this. They couldn’t watch other people’s battles as leisurely as Hyeonu.

After all, they had been fighting against the demon world army for experience and items. They spent a lot of time hunting in order to gain more quest rewards.

‘I will use this as content.’ Hyeonu humbly received the feedback of the viewers.

It was good manners to tell them what they wanted to hear. Hyeonu started preparing to fulfill the viewers’ request. In order to do so, the most important thing he had to do was secure the video. There was no problem with the copyright. He needed to have the video so he could talk about something while watching.

‘I need to send an email.’

It wasn’t difficult for Hyeonu to get a video of the battle between the emperor and Baler. One phone call was enough. Therefore, the first thing he did was send Ellis an email asking him to edit the video. Sending videos at any time didn’t mean that Ellis, the editor, could simply edit the video.

Hyeonu had something to do too. For the video to be used in this stream, close communication between Hyeonu and Ellis was essential. It was because what Hyeonu needed wasn’t simply a neat or gorgeous video but the right video for the stream.

“Okay, I’ve written it.” 

Hyeonu tapped on the keyboard for a long time before moving the mouse. He finished writing the email and pressed the send button. Then he sent the email and immediately picked up his smartphone to make a call. The battle also involved New World, the guild Hyeonu belonged to.

So, the players of New World would naturally have turned on their streams.

“Yes, Hyung-nim. It’s me, Hyeonu. It’s nothing. Ah, come out at night? I don’t have an appointment. Yes. I’ll go out.”

Throughout the call, Hyeonu regretted calling Kim Seokjung instead of Gang Junggu. It was only just before hanging up that Hyeonu was able to bring up his original reason for calling.

[Captain Communication has received your feedback.]

As usual, the viewers chatted actively before Hyeonu appeared on the screen.

-Feedback? Who said something to Alley Leader?

-Surely, this isn’t possible? Our Alley Leader is good at running away.

-Right? He runs away when we say something.

-It is obvious that the title has nothing to do with him. ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Today’s conversation topic was feedback, but what was the communication Hyeonu was talking about? Even so, they didn’t take it seriously and just killed time until Hyeonu arrived. In any case, the feedback that Hyeonu was talking about couldn’t be great.

-Honestly, all we want is for him to stream more often and longer...

-There is no way he will listen to that.

-Well, it isn’t a big deal. ㅋ ㅋ ㅋ

The viewers had no complaints about the live streams. This was except for one thing. They wanted Hyeonu to increase the frequency and length of the live streams. However, they knew that Hyeonu wouldn’t listen, so they took the current stream title lightly.

“Hello everyone. Nice to see you. It is the symbol of A-World’s communication, Alley Leader.”

Hyeonu appeared while waving one hand high up like a politician.

-It isn’t a symbol of communication but escape.

-Congratulations on being the number 1 streamer in A-World who runs away more often than anyone else.

-A man who doesn’t look back.

-He ends his stream more quickly and covertly than anyone else.

The viewers greeted Hyeonu with mockery. This was the atmosphere and culture of Hyeonu’s live streams. New viewers who came because Hyeonu streamed the main scenario last time couldn’t adapt to this situation.

…But that was only at first. Then over time, they too were skillfully immersed in the atmosphere, to the extent where they treated Hyeonu a bit more casually.

“The master of running away? It is me, Alley Leader who runs looking forward.” Hyeonu made a gesture like he was falsely accused.

-Right. Run forward and run away.

-I admit it. Others are running away, while he is standing here proudly.

However, Hyeonu still received the jokes in return.

“No, that isn’t it. I prepared today’s content after receiving feedback from some viewers. The name of the content is Rewatch the Main Scenario with Alley Leader.”

He had obtained a video of the battle between Baler and the emperor through Kim Seokjung and then edited it according to his own footage. It was so that it didn’t feel incompatible.

“Of course, it won’t be fun if you just watch this, right? It is the same for me. That is why I have prepared other content. I will eat meat while watching the battle video, just like eating popcorn while watching movies.”

-The logic is outrageous.

-Movies and popcorn are plausible, but what is the relationship between the main scenario and meat?

-There is such a relationship.

-Then I acknowledge it.

Hyeonu saw the chat window and said, “This reaction... Then I’ll stop eating meat.”

He quickly revised the plan when the viewers didn’t respond well.

-Ah, why?

-It is a joke, a joke.

-Who touched the temper of our Alley Leader? Eh?

-I am going to put it up on the chat window now. Find all the IDs and upload them to A-World.

The viewers were flustered by Hyeonu’s unexpected response. It was time for a playful answer to come out. Instead, Hyeonu’s words were serious.

“Tang-E and... Gom-E won’t come out. We will start today’s content, Rewatch the Main Scenario with Alley Leader.” Hyeonu’s follow-up drove in a wedge. The fact that Hyeonu’s two bears wouldn’t appear on the stream… 

There was no news more terrible for the viewers than this.

-Apologize quickly before he really does it.

-Hurry up and say you want to see it. Come on!

-I want to see a meat-eating show!

-Go eat meat!

The chat window was plastered with the same content. Everyone was united.

“Thanks to the enthusiasm of the viewers, the Rewatch the Main Scenario with Alley Leader content will be accompanied by eating meat.”

Hyeonu finished his words and immediately summoned Tang-E and Gom-E. After that, he started to prepare to cook the meat. He pulled out a smooth stone slab and two bricks from his inventory. Then he pulled out some wood to use as a fire.

“Master dude, is this a meat party?”

“No pay? Do I have to work?”

Gom-E and Tang-E saw Hyeonu preparing the fire and ran to his side to question him.

“Yes, it is a party. A meat party. I’ll cook it well, so light it up well.”

Hyeonu made the bricks a bit narrower than the stone slab and built up a moderate amount of firewood in between. The smooth stone plate was placed on top of it.

Hyeonu finished the preparations to cook the meat and called out to Tang-E straight away, saying, “Light it well.”

The moment Hyeonu called out his name, Tang-E used magic power to light a fire. The red flames instantly swallowed the firewood, and smoke billowed from the stone slab due to the extreme heat. Even so, Tang-E continued to keep his magic power going as this wasn’t enough. The firewood that Hyeonu prepared wasn’t the type to catch fire easily, but it retained it well and stayed hot for a long time.

‘It is on fire.’ Hyeonu saw the firewood burning and proceeded with the content in earnest.

“Let’s take a look at the video I’ve prepared. I am confident that I have collected the main extracts of this main scenario. There will be scenes that you can’t see anywhere else.”

Hyeonu played the video with a confident expression.

‘They will be really shocked.’

He was confident that viewers would focus on the video. There was a good reason for his conviction. The video contained the development of the main scenario, which Hyeonu had yet to release so far. Of course, he briefly explained it as in passing on the live streams in the past, but there was a clear difference between listening to words and seeing it with their own eyes.

Hyeonu’s video began with the appearance of two familiar men. A blond-haired man was holding something out to a black-haired man.

-The emperor and Alley Leader?

-What is that white thing?

-It seems to be something like a letter?

-I think it is a book. It is because the emperor is giving it.

-Don’t make useless guesses and just watch it.

As the viewers were arguing, Hyeonu and the emperor in the video continued to move. Hyeonu’s expression changed rapidly as the emperor continued to speak. The faces of the viewers watching it were several times more surprised than Hyeonu in the video.

-Etono is his territory?

-So there are two territories?

-No, what does he mean by ‘Get the seal from the emperor of the East Continent’?

-Preparing for war as soon as the demon world is opened. As expected of the emperor. Groan.

The video briefly turned black. Once it regained its brilliant colors, the video showed another emperor.

-It is the emperor of the East Continent.

-Meeting all the emperors here and there~

-The emperor of the East Continent is really old. Well, it is the usual image of an emperor that we think of...

-Is he taking out the official seal right away?

The viewers were immersed in the video. As if they were Hyeonu, they focused on the mouth of the old emperor of the empire and seemed like they didn’t already know what would happen.

Just then, Tang-E grabbed Hyeonu’s leg and shook it. “Master dude, it is ready.”

“I will watch the next video while cooking meat.” Hyeonu smiled and stopped the video. It was exquisite timing.

-Ah, I’m dizzy. Please show me the next scene.

-Why is it like this? Is our Alley Leader playing hard to get today?

-Not showing it... I’m going crazy.

-Really... He is really bad. How can he stop it here?

Immediately, the chat window was filled with the clamor of the viewers.

‘This is progress that I worked hard on all night.’

It wasn’t an accident that Tang-E pulled Hyeonu’s leg at that time. Everything was going as Hyeonu had planned.
