I Regressed, But the World Isn’t Destroyed - Chapter 41



Only Noblemtl

041.

-Is this really a fake broadcast?

-Hey, newbies, come on in.

-Sigh;; Seriously;; Is this guy a full-time professional?

-Is this guy really a flaw?

-This is my first time seeing your face. Did I come to the wrong link?

-Please take a seat.

As rumors about the identity of [Heumgeujeongdunga] spread, viewers continue to flock to the site.

As luck would have it, a suitable opponent was matched for him.

[Humgeujeongdunga] VS [Beyond]

“Oh, the border is nice.”

Lee Do-hyuk said while looking at the opponent’s nickname.

It has a sky blue color background, the name is written in gold, and there are various special effects.

Considering the opponent’s current class, it’s probably a class boundary symbolizing the Heaven and Earth.

What I don’t have is probably because this season isn’t over yet.

His prediction was correct.

A benefit given to those who finished the previous season with flying colors.

-uh

-Is it real?

-ㅇㅇ On air

But unlike Lee Do-hyeok, what people were paying attention to was not the other person’s extraordinary frame.

There was something more noteworthy than that.

The three-character nickname Beyond is written right here.

-Beyond

-Wow, I just met this lol

-F*ck lol but everyone I meet is a legend

-What kind of world championship is this guy doing by himself?

In the world of Ultimate Fighters, the greatest of all time, the GOAT, is Anatole.

There is little room for argument there.

But that’s because Anatole dominated the world at the top for quite some time, and he demonstrated top-level skills for a long time, not because he was always the best in the world.

Over the years, there have been those who have threatened his position, and at times even defeated him, and have closely followed Anatol’s footsteps.

One of those people is Beyond.

He was a top-tier gamer who ruled the world for a very short time.

“I guess you’re famous?”

Of course… this is the first time I’ve heard of this name, Lee Do-hyuk.

It’s a given.

Anatole was the one who didn’t know.

There are people in the world who don’t know Anatole, but there is no one who knows Beyond without knowing Anatole.

The sorrow of the second place winners who couldn’t become the best.

-Ah ㅋㅋ There’s someone who’s a little worse than the broadcaster you said was good – He once beat Anatol and became the best. Yeah – Ssup.. Was that about 3 weeks? The world was a little..

-? ㅋㅋ Did you forget that Anatol lost 2 out of 2 matches in those 3 weeks?

-Oh my, it’s the Gald Cup again

-Sup

-Isn’t there a manager?

A chat window that becomes dizzy for a moment.

When it comes to pros, and pros of similar level at that, the fact that fandoms can’t help but fight is a long-standing tradition that has been passed down from the Meho Wars to the present.

But then someone appeared like a comet.

-(Sword) From now on, whoever opens the Gald Cup will get a penalty.

-oh?

-Jin Eun-geom is a sword;

-I thought it wouldn’t be there because Jianchu was broadcasting ㄷㄷ

A sword-shaped emoticon symbolizing the chat room manager has appeared next to the ID of a viewer using the nickname ‘Lee Do-hyeok’s disciple.’

Lee Do-hyuk was the manager appointed before today’s broadcast.

He applied before we even said we were going to formally hire a manager.

We chose him because of his chat history, his broadcast participation, and his recent experience as Black Oak’s manager with the nickname ‘Black Oak Disciple’.

Of course, there was also Black Oak’s confirmation that he was not a strange person.

-Wow, your disciple has made a name for himself.

-ㄷㄷ God Dohyeok’s first sword

-(검)ㄴㄴ Ji-an is the first sword and I am the second sword

-Sup··· That’s too much of a paper sword for a first sword···

Anyway, while the manager was setting the tone for the chat.

Bb-

Lee Do-hyeok chose Hoken this time too.

Then the chat window becomes noisy again.

-Oh, Hoken mirror match?

-Keuu Beyond, in front of Hoken Kalpic!

-Honestly, there’s nothing to be embarrassed about lol

Beyond is also famous for handling the night fighter, Hoken, very well.

Hoken is a character considered a beginner’s trinket because of its ease and strength.

In other words, it also meant that it didn’t work among experts above a certain level.

However, there was someone who found a kill combo that allowed Hawken’s performance to be utilized at a professional level, and was called Hawken’s father.

That was Anatole.

It was Anatole who won the first competition in Hawken.

But again, it was Beyond, not Anatole, who won the most tournaments with Hawken.

If Anatole is Hawken’s father, Beyond is Hawken’s legitimate son.

[Ready]

In front of such Beyond, Lee Do-hyeok chose Hoken without any hesitation.

“Wow.. This person really has a lot of confidence?”

Bb-

[Ready]

It was natural for Beyond, who saw that, to also pick on Hawken.

Besides, Lee Do-hyeok had already defeated Anatol’s Hawken with the same Hawken.

then···

-Whoever wins here gets to take the Hawken Tower?

-yep

-and

-dgggg

-Something big is coming

It was another Hawken mirror match that everyone was looking forward to.

[1··· Fight-!]

Fighting-

‘A very aggressive style. Rather than a set pattern, I tend to mix things up instinctively.’

Beyond doesn’t know much about its opponent.

At best, his fighting style is very attack-oriented, he is skilled enough to use some of Hoken’s main skills without compensation, and he has the physique to use them appropriately depending on the situation.

Even if I wanted to know more, I couldn’t.

Of the five matches between Anatol and his opponent, Beyond only saw the last two.

‘I heard you caught Geomhee perfectly earlier.’

I didn’t see that either.

Unlike Anatol, the girl in black, who had not deleted the footage of herself fighting [Humgeujeongdunga], suddenly changed all the footage to private after the morning battle.

There is some curiosity as to what prompted that behavior, but it is not something to worry about right now.

Thump, thump.

An opponent who walks towards you without any hesitation, even though you have distanced yourself from the start.

Because I needed to confirm that he, amidst all the rumors, was really as great as the rumors said and the confidence he showed now.

As of yet···

‘I don’t know.’

So defenseless.

That was my first impression.

Walking speed, tired posture.

Anyone can see that this is an opponent who wants to attack first.

It’s lowly to see that and think, “That’s right.”

If you are a master, you should carefully examine your opponent to see if he is hiding something, and then rather than getting caught up in his pace, you should aim for a moment when you can use your strengths to your advantage and engage him.

So what should Beyond choose here?

Taat!

It’s about making the first move the way the other person wants.

Beyond kicked the ground hard.

The reason he made that choice was simple.

Why? Because Beyond isn’t just a master.

No matter who he faces, even if it’s Anatol, he’s a master who can’t be defeated in close combat.

Phew!

Beyond’s body spun around and aimed at Lee Do-hyuk.

One, a perfect counterattack that came back the moment he put his foot down.

Because of this, there is no shock to each other.

Beyond immediately bent his upper body backwards.

slap!

A chilling wind blew past the tip of his nose.

If I had been just a little bit later, the opponent’s foot would have hit him directly in the face.

It wasn’t something I expected or avoided.

It was something I avoided by ‘seeing’.

hook-

Beyond pulled back and swung his right arm.

Whip! The arm swung like a whip and knocked away the opponent’s fist.

This time too, it was unexpected.

Beyond avoided it by observing the subtle movements of the shoulder muscles.

This was the source of Beyond’s confidence.

His talent and extreme physique made him the best in the world in the Ultimate Fighter category, even if only briefly.

-Wow

-The pure physical goat Beyond Ham

-Oh, it’s Yondu hyung~

-How did you do it? I saw it and blocked it.

Reactions from the chat window of Beyond Broadcast.

In this way, he was a gamer recognized as having the best physique in the world when it came to pure physicality.

Even in terms of physical strength, he was evaluated to be superior to Anatole.

Here, physical does not mean physical ability, but rather a word meaning mechanical ability in the e-sports sense.

Anyway, Beyond also had a nickname because of his physique.

-How does the Bomakjwa taste?

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋIt looks spicy

-I think Heumjwa was a little surprised too.

Also known as the Bomakjwa.

It was a nickname given to him because he claimed that he could see and block techniques that even professional fighting game players said were impossible to see and block because the activation time was too short.

At first, it was considered the common aggro of a rookie pro who had just debuted, but upon hearing that, Anatol said, “That? I can do it on a day when I’m in good condition,” and after going through several proof processes, it became established as an established fact that Anatol and Beyond could do it, even if other pros didn’t, and that’s how Beyond got that nickname.

And as if to prove that he wasn’t called that for nothing – Pak! Pababak!

Beyond succeeded in guarding all of his opponent’s techniques in a series of continuous attacks.

And that’s not all.

It doesn’t stop at just blocking, but also deflects, counters, evades, and even targets the timing of the opponent’s stun after using their skills.

Beyond didn’t just take the hit, but continued to exploit his opponent’s weaknesses.

Bang! Bang!

-and

-The level is really high

-Even the nopi cut;;;

What’s even more surprising is that, unlike Anatol, who was hit hard in close combat, Beyond didn’t suffer any HP loss.

This meant that there was not a single attack from his opponent that he could not block while their defenses were intersecting.

And that meant his close combat level was higher than Anatol’s.

-Did you get it?

-Is this possible?

-ㄷㄷ;; Is this true? Really

The chat window is jumping around in surprise after seeing that.

-Aren’t you saying that the other person is an amateur?

-Wow; I saw that Beyond was in really good condition today.. He’s on par with Beyond. Of course, on Beyond’s broadcast, the opponent is surprised to see Beyond on par with him.

-Okay, Yondu is hitting me hard.

-Kya, you rubbed it with Dohyuk sensei for 10 seconds?

On the contrary, in Lee Do-hyuk’s broadcast, Beyond is surprised to see an equal fight between him and Lee Do-hyuk.

-?

-Why is the room reacting like this? You guys are beyond the opponent.

-We know too lol

-This is Dohyuk sensei lol

-This room is crazy confident for both the streamer and the fans. ㄷㄷ-You guys too, if you close your eyes and watch this person’s broadcast for 3 days, you’ll know the results, right? How can you watch it with your eyes closed?

Today, some people came to see Lee Do-hyuk’s broadcast for the first time after hearing the news that [Heumgeujeongdunga] was a streamer, so there were mixed reactions.

Anyway.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Pfft!

How many more seconds did the fight last?

Beyond crossed their arms and legs a few more times before distancing themselves again.

‘Strong.’

This was the feeling Beyond had just felt in the workshop.

It was a short clash, but it was enough to get a feel for the opponent’s level.

‘It wasn’t for nothing that Anatol lost.’

So what if I’m an amateur?

In fact, that thought was abandoned just seconds after the game started.

It had to be that way.

He pretended to aim for the shoulder, then tried to block it, then changed direction and hit the forehead.

A flexible yet sharp attack from an opponent.

And a defense that easily blocks counterattacks including his counterattacks.

There is even an evasion that can be done with movements that are without even the slightest error.

Gulp-

‘···This person is the same.’

Anatole on a scratched day.

And physically, he is admired as the best in Ulpa.

In Ultimate Fighter, only these two were able to ‘see and block’.

The opponent is also at the same level.

‘Why didn’t you go pro?’

This thought comes to me naturally.

Beyond knows too.

How difficult it is to reach this level.

In fact, it is said that you can see and block things, but in reality, that is not the case.

It is a term that has been established since the days of arcades and PC games, so we use the expression ‘see’, but the reality is different.

What should I say?

I would say it is closer to the realm of a slightly higher level of sense.

Not only do you have to look at your opponent’s stride, muscle movement, foot placement, body posture, and how much strength he puts into his upper and lower body.

A state that can be reached when you master every single activation technique of all your characters without missing a single one, practice repeatedly based on that, train yourself to react to various scenarios, and add extreme physical strength and real-life sense to that.

How much effort would it take to get to that point?

‘I know that best.’

That’s why Beyond felt a kind of kinship.

Beyond dreamed of Anatole and went to great lengths to reach him.

The other person will probably feel the same way!

‘Did you say you were a streamer?’

Compassion felt at the same time.

It’s a shame.

Beyond, as a result of such efforts, succeeded in reaching Anatol, even if it could not surpass him.

But the opponent is an unknown master.

There may be several reasons why he was ‘unknown’.

‘Probably preparing for the Ulfa Pro… The propane failed, and it seems that the style did not match that of the Iron Fist.’

The reason we can guess right away is this.

This is probably the most likely guess.

-Breaking News) It’s been 17 hours since the start of the Heumjwa Ice Age

-?

-ㅋㅋdog brush n

-Don’t feed me aggro, idiot.

-Uh… Is it true?

-I came back from the gallery and already got the verification done?

-???? So a newbie is fighting with the host for 17 hours?

-Uh…is that so?

Of course, contrary to Beyond’s thoughts, there was another reason why Lee Do-hyeok couldn’t become an All-Pro…

-Wowㅋㅋㅋ I was just watching and wondering why this person didn’t become a pro -ㅅㅂㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ- (I don’t even know a game like this exists), so what do I do?

Beyond, who is unable to see the chat window because he is focused on the match, cannot help but be unaware of the reason.

Pfft!

Beyond leapt forward.

‘I originally planned to use it when I met Anatol in an official competition.’

The propane broke down faster than expected, and there was a secret weapon that was never used.

A combo technique that I was able to discover because I was the one who handled Hoken to the limit.

‘The best treatment to the best opponent.’

But if it’s your opponent, then it’s not lacking to be that sacrifice!

Taat-!

Looking at Beyond rushing towards me like that.

“···hmm.”

Lee Do-hyeok also showed a small side of himself.

‘Compared to that Anatole guy from last time···’

It feels a little more plump and bouncy.

This person has a slight advantage in areas such as instantaneous reaction speed and dynamic vision.

However, when it comes to the ability to make moment-to-moment judgments about a situation, Anatol, whom we met last time, is clearly superior.

Overall, I think Anatol won.

‘Still, this guy isn’t bad either.’

If we only consider the momentary clash, this one is slightly better.

Above all,

‘I’m saying you write a lot of interesting things.’

Judging from the chat window’s reactions before starting, it seems like he’s famous as a Hoken craftsman.

That’s why there was a lot to learn from the opponent’s movements.

To be more precise, I’m learning by ‘stealing’······

During his days as a hunter, Lee Do-hyeok’s unique ability was copying, which allowed him to use other people’s characteristics and abilities as if they were his own.

It’s been a long time since I graduated that I started feeling guilty about following what others do.
