EX rank supporting role’s replay in a prestigious school-Chapter 924: Camp (13)
Inside the theater that the 2nd-year Class 0 students had reserved.
While the shieldbearer’s party was having dinner, they decided to have their meal as well.
The menu consisted of handmade burgers from the Huangmyeong Tower, and most of the kids chose the signature burger with shrimp patties and bacon.
The game broadcast had gone on for a while, and it was starting to get a bit boring, but since they were all watching together and talking, no one seemed bored just yet.
"Are they not watching the guide right now?"
"They probably aren't. Sang-hoon doesn't give orders until after the patterns are broken, he just observes first."
"Then it’s probably going to take a while. A party with only one experienced member will take a long time even if they watch the guide."
"Ah, I think the chat just now was managed by Eui-shin. We should just leave it to the new manager."
"...Aren't they going to edit the video later? I want to at least make the thumbnail."
Jo Eui-shin wasn't just appearing on the broadcast; he also managed it and edited the videos.
Keeping the broadcast running for long hours and just playing the game wasn’t easy, but Jo Eui-shin didn’t limit himself to just that.
As the class discussed Jo Eui-shin, In Seon-o, who had been focused on the screen, asked a question.
"Is Eui-shin really a beginner? I thought he was a pro like the shieldbearer since he’s so good at the game. I’ve heard he’s also really good at running internet broadcasts... and I heard he edits them too."
As soon as In Seon-o spoke, Dokgo Miro, who had been quietly eating an avocado soy meat burger nearby, observed silently.
During the summer break, Dokgo Miro had been paying attention to In Seon-o as they went through the class schedule.
The 2nd-year Class 0 students had shown interest in the new student, so Dokgo Miro's behavior didn't seem out of place.
While casually observing, Dokgo Miro was sure that In Seon-o was trying to learn more about Jo Eui-shin.
'It’s the same with this broadcast. In Seon-o seems to be paying attention to Yoo Sang-hoon, Jang Nam-uk, and Dosihu, but the most curious thing for him seems to be the relationship between those three and the vice-class president.'
Jo Eui-shin’s abilities, talents, reputation, personality, preferences, relationships with others...
In Seon-o not only asked about Jo Eui-shin but also inquired about the other students, but whenever he asked someone anything, there was always a question about Jo Eui-shin mixed in.
Dokgo Miro was sure In Seon-o was trying to dig into something about Jo Eui-shin, but he couldn’t figure out exactly what or why.
"The Platjet was probably started because the 4th class vice-class president recommended it? The shieldbearer said so during the broadcast."
Dokgo Miro hid his caution and responded.
Following Dokgo Miro, Ong Gildong and Goo Seulbi spoke up.
"As a partner, Eui-shin is very talented, but he doesn’t seem particularly fond of games."
"Yeah, he probably knows more about gardening. He came by the gardening club once and talked to them. The club president said if he wasn’t in the newspaper club, they’d have brought him into ours."
Goo Seulbi’s proud-sounding comment started a chain of revelations about Jo Eui-shin’s secret talents.
It seemed that Jo Eui-shin had participated in the club activities or hobbies of the class members at least once.
"The vice-class president knows a lot about delicious things. Most of our class snacks are chosen by him, and they’re all delicious. Oh, and he’s good at math too."
Everyone agreed with the foodie Maeng Hyo-don’s words.
Jo Eui-shin was sincere about picking snacks for the class and his juniors, and he knew a lot about food.
Even though he didn’t attend math classes, he had saved Jang Dol from failing by becoming an excellent math tutor.
"He’s also knowledgeable about music. He can tell the title of a classical piece just by hearing a few measures. If you’re curious about the name of a song played at the end of class, you can ask the vice-class president, and he’ll know."
"That’s right. Even when I couldn’t play the violin anymore, he could tell me the name of the practice piece just from the intro."
Mok Woo-ram and Kwon Re-na praised Jo Eui-shin’s vast knowledge of music.
But they didn’t mention anything about Jo Eui-shin’s playing skills.
Without needing to say it, everyone recalled how stiffly Jo Eui-shin had played the triangle during the festival.
"Eui-shin also knows a lot about art. He knows the names of works and artists in both Eastern and Western art. He even knows the materials I use."
"Like satellites. The only person who understands me in our class is the vice-class president... and Greenie."
"...Honestly, I don’t always understand what Da-seok is saying."
Min Green and Song Da-seok were adamant that Jo Eui-shin knew a lot about art and satellites.
As Min Green said, Jo Eui-shin had been like a curator when they went to an exhibition, explaining the works in a way that was easy to understand.
Song Da-seok, on the other hand, often went on long rants about satellites, but very few people understood him.
Seeing Song Da-seok talk like that, it seemed that Jo Eui-shin understood every bit of his satellite rambling.
"Ah, Eui-shin’s also good at chess! He was the chess champion last year. I’m not part of the chess club, but I learned chess with Han, so I know. Eui-shin’s moves in last year’s final were really brilliant."
Sa Wol-seeum mentioned Jo Eui-shin’s chess skills.
Jo Eui-shin had participated in the stalemate championship held at Yeonggwang High last year and defeated Yeom Jun-yeol in the final to win the title.
It was just a school-level chess tournament, but given the number of skilled players at Yeonggwang High, there was no doubt about Jo Eui-shin’s chess skills.
Meanwhile, while listening to the classmates, Ong Gildong wanted to say just how outstanding and great Jo Eui-shin was as a master thief, but he forced himself to hold back.
"Ugh... Eui-shin understands our grandeur."
Ong Gildong mumbled.
To maintain his thief persona, secrecy was essential.
So, even though he always emphasized flair and being conspicuous, Ong Gildong refrained from saying much about the thief side of things.
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
The rest of the class just thought, ‘Eui-shin’s kind enough to understand their desire for attention.’
While Ong Gildong muttered, "A thief is always lonely in the crowd!" the silent Jin Jeong-muk also added a comment.
"The vice-class president has deep enlightenment regarding martial arts. He’s one of the opponents I’d like to duel with."
No one knew what Jin Jeong-muk meant by 'enlightenment,' but it was accepted as a compliment to Jo Eui-shin’s strength.
In a way, this made sense, but the reason Jin Jeong-muk used martial arts terms was because Jo Eui-shin fully understood them.
Han didn’t know the full meaning behind it, but he agreed with Jin Jeong-muk.
"Even Teacher Gong Cheong-hwan said Eui-shin is strong enough to represent our school. I’m looking forward to seeing how he’ll fight in the exchange competition."
The class was adding their opinions one by one.
In Seon-o naturally turned to Hwang Ho, who hadn’t spoken yet.
Hwang Ho had planned to just observe, but he decided it wasn’t bad to say something that would confuse others.
Hwang Ho chose his words carefully.
"Jo Eui-shin is also very knowledgeable about tea. He can tell the name of a tea leaf just by smelling it and taking a sip."
Hwang Ho smiled softly, recalling the time when he served tea to Jo Eui-shin.
Jo Eui-shin understood the value of the tea Hwang Ho served and was so well-mannered and knowledgeable about tea ceremonies that he enjoyed observing it thoroughly.
It seemed like such a long time ago that Hwang Ho couldn’t help but smile.
Though it could have been confusing with all the information being shared, In Seon-o looked at the photo of the puppy and smiled while hiding his slight embarrassment.
Dokgo Miro was watching this when his device rang.
Ding dong.
A message arrived on Dokgo Miro’s device.
The sender was BJ Guknaesan, who had appeared in the same broadcast playlist.
As an internet streamer, BJ Guknaesan seemed to have taken an interest in the shieldbearer’s broadcast, where the viewer count was spiking.
It seemed like BJ Guknaesan contacted Dokgo Miro, who was in the same class, to say hello.
‘Guknaesan Oppa is watching this too. I wonder if anyone else is watching.’
Dokgo Miro opened the viewer list.
He had appeared on internet broadcasts a few times, so he had a few acquaintances there.
There were so many people, but he narrowed it down to those with a lot of followers and checked.
It turned out that all the streamers who had appeared on broadcasts with Dokgo Miro were watching the shieldbearer’s broadcast.
‘Since the player is on the broadcast, everyone’s watching... huh?’
There were two usernames that caught Dokgo Miro’s attention.
One was an internet broadcasting account created by National Assembly member Seong Guk-eon for communication purposes.
He hardly ever broadcasted, but it seemed to be in the list because it had many followers.
The other was a streamer who almost got involved with Dokgo Miro.
‘...They’re watching this broadcast.’
The streamer was someone who had dreamed of becoming a player, and was one of the victims of the Center incident.
