Ranker's Return-Supplementary Story 15

Supplementary Story 15

-This is a bit...

-Is there a person who is handsome even when waking up from sleep?

-By the way, I’ve already seen him sleeping too much.

-That’s right.

-Maybe there will be videos of him just sleeping if we go to A-World?

The viewers laughed as they watched Hyeonu sleep. Hyeonu didn’t know it, but the live stream had already started 10 minutes before he woke up.

-I didn’t expect to see this again.

-I am seeing Dwayne again in Argon’s live stream when I thought I would only see him on the screen.

-Next to him are Mason and Alley Leader.

-As expected, you have good connections.

The viewers weren’t interested in just Hyeonu but also Dwayne and Mason, who were beside him. They were two people who were almost impossible to see on live streams after they retired from being pro gamers. It was natural for the viewers’ attention to be focused on them.

“All the live stream guests are here, so I will start the full-fledged Argon Show.” Yeongchan read the minds of the viewers and proceeded with the content. “We have said the greetings, so let’s move on. I’ll ask you right away. How have you been?”

Yeongchan’s progress had nothing superfluous. He came up with what the viewers wanted.

“Shall we start with me?” Dwayne grabbed the microphone from Yeongchan’s hand. Mason looked at Dwayne and nodded.

Dwayne continued, “As you all know, I have retired as a professional gamer and have started filming the delayed movies.”

He had returned to his job as an actor. Some people felt sorry about his retirement, but there were many who didn’t.

-When will Eternal Empire 3 be released?

-To be honest, I didn't like it that much when he was a pro gamer.

-I am half-half? I really like Arena as well.

The fans who liked Actor Dwayne naturally cheered when he started focusing on his work.

“Of course, I am playing Arena hard as well. It is my favorite hobby.”

-It is even creepier that his arena ranking is still going up

-ㅋㅋㅋ

-No one thought that his talent would be so good.

-Aren’t there rumors that Alley Leader still sometimes looks after him?

-Really? Isn’t the after-sales service too long? What is Dwayne’s arena ranking that he is still teaching?

Dwayne continued to enjoy Arena more than any other player despite his busy acting career.

“Everyone, I am still teaching him. There is still a mountain of things to teach. I will continue until he becomes a master.” Hyeonu completely dispelled his sleepiness and intervened in the streaming as he approached Dwayne.

-Dwayne as a master?

-That is a bit...

-If it is a master, then it is the top 100...

-I think it is only possible right before Arena collapses.

“I don’t know what to do with these people who can’t notice... It means doing it for the rest of my life. My pure viewers who accept it right away as soon as I speak, you know how much I care about you, right?” Hyeonu smiled brightly at the camera and stretched out his arms. He seemed to be hugging someone.

-Ah, my pride is hurt.

-I get it like this.f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮

-I am dumbfounded, really.

The viewers shook their heads at Hyeonu’s words.

“In fact, I don’t think you are very curious about Dwayne’s recent situation. Isn’t that right? News about Dwayne is all over the Internet.” Hyeonu took away Yeongchan’s role and streamed on Yeongchan’s behalf.

“So let’s hear what you really want to hear.” Hyeonu brought the microphone that Dwayne was holding to Mason’s lips.

-Is this right?

-I don’t think so?

-Ahjussi, it isn’t here. You got the wrong address.

-I think you should put it to your mouth...

However, Hyeonu couldn’t see the chat window. At this moment, the only one looking at the chat window was Yeongchan.

“Hello, I am Mason. It has been a long time since I’ve been on a live stream like this,” Mason carefully spoke into the microphone that Hyeonu held out. “I can’t see the chat window, but I have an idea of how you feel. You aren’t too curious about me, right?”

-That isn’t it.

-Talking with the boss of Nike Management isn’t easy.

-Jamie Moore is a bit like that...

-Ah, that’s right. He was often seen in Alley Leader’s streaming.

They only showed interest in Hyeonu for a while. Now the viewers poured out messages related to Mason. Mason wasn’t just a retired professional gamer; he was also the boss of a large management company. There were many things they wanted to ask and many things they were curious about.

-What are you doing these days?

-Doesn’t Nike Management do anything like events?

-Are there any streamers you are interested in these days?

-Do you want any streamers?

The chat window exploded in an instant. It was at a different level from Dwayne.

Yeongchan approached Mason and asked a question while holding his smartphone, “Many questions have appeared. This is the question that most viewers are asking. What are you doing these days?”

It meant for him to see the chat window and communicate in person.

“It is always the same for me. I am thinking about how to grow Nike Management. I am watching A-World a lot and playing Arena a lot. I’m also browsing the communities,” Mason said.

It was true. Mason was really busy every day. He was the boss of Nike Management, which was semi-forced, but he had his own greed. This meant that he rarely had time to rest.

-Isn’t this answer a bit generic?

-So he is busy?

The reaction from the viewers was lukewarm. They didn’t like Mason’s answer very much.

“So what are you doing these days? Why are you answering so half-heartedly?” Hyeonu shook his head and sighed when he heard Mason’s answer. The important thing was missing from the answer.

Hyeonu added, “You have to tell us the details. The details. What are you doing in Arena and what are you interested in these days? Something like this.”

-That is right. That is an exact answer.

-That is what we want.

-As expected of Alley Leader, he is a professional streamer.

-So you...

The viewers cheered at Hyeonu’s words. It was because Hyeonu properly scratched at their itchy spot.

‘I was too vague.’ Mason saw the chat window and realized his mistake.

“I’m not doing much in Arena. I’m struggling with my class advancement.”

-Class advancement? The fifth class advancement?

-Mason is doing the fifth class advancement? How quickly did he level up?

-This is enough to be one of the top three magicians.

It was a shocking story. There were currently fewer than 20 players known to have done their fifth class advancement in Arena. Only the rankers who really soared had achieved the feat of doing their fifth class advancement.

“I am getting full support, so how can the level-up be slow? Rather, it is weird that I am only doing the fifth class advancement now.”

-Support? Are you talking about the homework given by the person next to you?

“Yes, that’s right. It is that. The rewards are bad, but it gives a lot of experience.”

Mason spoke casually, but the audience who accepted it was different. They knew how troublesome the quests that Hyeonu gave out were for other players.

-Really, Alley Leader was caught playing a tycoon game.

-He is really running the empire like it is his.

-It isn’t his own experience he is giving out ㅋㅋㅋ

-Looking at the quests, he isn’t a human.

-Everyone liked it because he gave it evenly, but now it is the number one target to be avoided ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

The rankers were very concerned when Hyeonu became emperor and gave out quests. They thought that some guilds and gamers close to Hyeonu would monopolize the quests. However, Hyeonu didn’t do so. The quests were evenly distributed among all gamers. Cries rang out all over the place because the quality of the rewards was too poor. Aside from the experience that was a default reward, all that was given was some imperial contributions.

Hyeonu glanced at the chat window that Mason was watching and frowned. “I’m sorry to interrupt, but I have something to say. It isn’t that I don’t want to give rewards, but that I can’t. I’m just the professional manager who is being worked to the bones.”

-It is commonly called accepting punishment for someone else.

-Looking at him, I can feel that the emperor’s position isn’t very good.

-There are no rights, and only the duties are left ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-No, no, there are rights, but the duties are too great. That position seems to be for production players to do ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

The viewers laughed at Hyeonu’s protest. They all knew that the emperor’s position was nothing more than something that looked good on the outside but not on the inside.

“As for Nike Management... These days, we are putting a lot of effort into Reina.”

-Reina? Isn’t she retired now?

-It is because she is retired that they are putting in effort, idiot.

-Now that she is a streamer, there is more work for Nike to do.

“That’s right, so we often have meetings. I heard that we hold one at least once a week. I don’t know if Reina is satisfied with this.”

-There is no place like Nike.

-Isn’t once a week really sincere?

-Other streamers will be a bit envious when they hear about this.𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

Mason’s smile deepened as he looked at the chat window.

‘We need more good streamers.’

It was because he managed to firmly promote Nike through this one short interview. Having achieved his goal, Mason naturally shifted the topic of the interview: “Hyung, how are you these days?”

He returned the microphone he was holding to Hyeonu.

“Me? Doesn’t everyone know what I am doing these days except for you?” Hyeonu scratched his head. He didn’t have much to say.

-That is true.

-He is almost like a factory machine these days.

-Including his pets, the three of them are stamping.

-The three factory worker brothers ㅋㅋㅋㅋ.

The last stream alone had millions of viewers. At that time, everyone knew what Hyeonu was doing. Mason saw the chat window and whispered in Hyeonu’s ear, “No one knows about that yet?”

The startled Hyeonu wrapped his hands around the microphone and muttered in a small voice, “Are you crazy? You want to say that?”

Then he smiled as if nothing happened.

-Something is awkward.

-What did Mason say just now that caused him to have that look on his face?

-This is a face that makes it look like something is happening?

-Was it a serious question to make the shameless human show an expression like that?

The viewers didn’t miss Hyeonu’s expression. They accurately picked up on the awkwardness that came out of nowhere.

“Hyung, I’m sorry. I made a mistake.” Mason deliberately widened his eyes and made an innocent expression like he knew nothing. Then he placed his mouth to the microphone and spoke clearly to the audience, “I didn’t say much, everyone. I asked about Reina.”

-Reina?

-Reina is coming out here?

-It is the return of striker Mason.

-He scores goals in a stunning manner. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

The viewers bit at the words like hyenas. It didn’t matter if Mason really said this to Hyeonu. All they wanted was a conversation about Hyeonu and Reina.

-Is there really nothing?

-Let’s get married.

-Do you want to get married?

-Marriage is good.

Hyeonu held his forehead when he saw the chat window going crazy. He instantly felt dizzy.

‘Mason, this jerk?’

This was obviously intentional. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done things this way.

‘Even if I say no...’

It was a dilemma. If he said no, the viewers would ask what Mason really said.

“Me? What did you say about me?”

The person involved in the story, Reina, opened the closed door and appeared just then.

“Uh...” Hyeonu just stared at Reina’s face while keeping his mouth shut.
