I Regressed, But the World Isn’t Destroyed - Chapter 73

073.

“Okay, you may come in.”

Lee Do-hyuk started walking following the staff’s signal.

Although it is a virtual reality, the stage is decorated like an awards ceremony stage.

There was even a trophy placed in the middle.

Although it is an event-based competition, Twork Rivals is by no means small in scale, so they have prepared something like this.

They say they will also send the actual trophy to your home.

“Now, the winner of the Twitch Rivals tournament! Let’s invite [Humgeujeongdunga], Lee Do-hyeok, who won without dropping a single set in the finals! Hello!”

“Yes. Hello. This is Lee Do-hyuk.”

As we enter following the instructions, the first thing we see is the announcer in charge of interviewing the winner, and the participants of this competition sitting behind him.

Swish-

As I looked around, I saw a few happy faces.

Starting with the dark-haired girl with a seemingly liberated expression, to Shinjiro with a chubby face.

“······”

And there was even the sight of Lin glaring at Lee Do-hyuk with her brows slightly furrowed.

I saw earlier that the runner-up expressed a lot of dissatisfaction in his interview.

To be exact, it was an interview where yes or no was replaced with short answers and nodding or shaking the head, but… in Lee Do-hyuk’s eyes, Lin was on the verge of exploding.

-Wow

-Wow

-As expected, brother, I can’t win in the game www.

-God Dohyuk! God Dohyuk!

-Rin’s eyes are cute

-It was cute how they kept complaining about not using a sword ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The official broadcast chat window is displayed large in the front.

And next to it are highlights from the last game.

─Crunch!

It seems like the organizers thought the first set was better than the second set, as it mainly featured Lee Do-hyeok and Lin exchanging sword fights.

“Congratulations on winning, Lee Do-hyeok! First of all, I should ask you how you feel about winning. How do you feel about winning?”

“hmm···”

The announcer’s first question.

Lee Do-hyuk thought about his answer for a moment.

As for your thoughts on winning… well… was there anything special about it?

-hmm..

-hmm!

-hmm!!

-Hmm (meaning it was just so-so)!

-???

-Nani?

Lee Do-hyuk’s ‘Hmm’ meme is now a meme that any domestic fighting game user can’t help but know.

While Chinese and Japanese viewers, who have not yet seen the news, were bewildered, the reaction among Korean viewers was explosive.

“..I thought it was about that much.”

-Kkkkkkkkkkk

-Hmm… You beat Rin, who beat the black girl who beat Shinjiro? Is that it?

-That’s true, if you’re Dohyuk sensei, you can see the winning angle of EVO. -Oh, this is it, lol

-The majesty of the flaws that spreads widely throughout Asia

And the words that followed.

Viewers who heard that cheered enthusiastically in the chat.

“yes?”

Of course, the announcer couldn’t help but be flustered by that answer.

Still, she is a veteran who has served as an announcer at actual Iron Fist Pro tournaments.

In common parlance, he quickly regained his composure and continued speaking.

“..Ah, you won this competition, but are you still at that level?! You need to work even harder in the future! Is that what you’re saying?”

“···?”

-The interpretation is better than the dream lol

-This is why announcers pay a lot of money, lol- Oh my gosh, I’m so embarrassed as Dohyuk sensei, lol-???: Are you taking this…like this..?

-Ah, this is Tai Chi.

A veteran-like counterattack!

Even if I do this, you won’t deny it, right?

It was the announcer’s trick.

But Lee Do-hyuk doesn’t know that.

“No? It just means that the level of the opponents was just so-so.”

-Taichi? Softness overcomes strength? That’s just not strong enough. ㅇㅇ-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋHow does Dohyuk taste?

“Oh, except for the finals. The finals were fun.”

Lee Do-hyeok nodded and said.

The second set of the final was especially fun.

What an experience hitting Lin with a baseball bat.

If not now, then when else would you do it?

anyway.

The questions continued like this.

There was nothing special about it.

“I understand that you don’t have much experience with Iron Fist. Is there a special secret to your victory?”

“You just have to dodge well and hit well.”

All you had to do was answer the questions honestly.

-lol

-I see announcer Nuna getting more and more flustered.

-This is Lee Do-hyeok’s secret to victory. This is it~

-But then again, it’s true so I can’t say anythingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

“..You defeated Lin in the first set of the finals in a Masamune vs. Masamune mirror match. Is there a reason why you switched characters to Trevor in the second set?”

“Because Trevor has good cooking skills.”

“···”

As the Q&A continued, the corners of the announcer’s mouth began to lower slightly.

-Ah lol How did you hold back from breaking the pot in the finals lol – Seriously lol

-Trevor’s cooking skills are good, lol

However, Lee Do-hyuk was not able to answer all the questions well.

Because there were questions in the middle that made him very embarrassed.

“Japanese fans also couldn’t stop praising Lee Do-hyeok’s skills. There was a lot of chatter throughout the game saying that his plays were amazing, like watching Tsuki. Do you agree with that, Lee Do-hyeok?”

“..Yes? Me?”

-Ugh hahahahahaha

-???: Yes? You’re saying I couldn’t do that?

-Look at Dohyuk sensei’s wide-eyed face, lol

It was a winner’s interview that was very entertaining in many ways.

**

The next day.

Tiring.

[Lee Do-hyeok’s live broadcast begins! : Lee Do-hyeok, Kang Rim]

-Tha

-Doha!!

-Ready for Doha!

-Wow

-Why are you here now? Why are you here now?

-Look at the quarantine lol

Perhaps because they just won yesterday, the number of viewers started to increase as soon as the broadcast was turned on.

“Ah, ah. Can you hear me?”

Lee Do-hyuk is now a mature broadcaster.

The broadcast began naturally with an opening talk and continued the communication.

“Thank you for congratulating me on the win. I wasn’t just looking at Lin. She’s quite talented. What is Gian doing on her day off? She’s just lying down at home and resting.”

-Ugh lol

-Exposure lol

-No, that guy talking about going out for an appointment is an exposure.

-Really lol

-Staying at home is a desirable vacation.

“Yesterday’s competition was uploaded to iTube… Well, I’m not sure. It’ll probably take a few days. DoTube is working hard on it, so please wait a little longer.”

Dotube is a nickname for Lee Do-hyuk’s iTube editor.

Thanks to its fast upload speed and excellent editing skills, it was well-received among live viewers.

Tiring-

[‘Jeongseongsu13’ donated 10,000 won.]

-So, Ogemmu?

“The game we’re going to play today is….”

Doo- doo doo- doo- doo- doo- doo-

“First, Iron Fist in Part 1! I plan on getting first place in the day after tomorrow, so today, I’ll try to get to 100th place.”

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋIf someone saw this, they’d think I gave them first place

-Isn’t that what you left?

-Who is currently number 1 in Asia?

-Oh lol Hwang Na Tol

-F*ck lol, Pongtoli hyung!

**

There is one thing that the current Korean Iron Fist pros have in common, even though they don’t say it out loud.

‘I’m afraid to turn the rank these days.’

Because there is one disaster living in the ranked game.

The disaster, of course, refers to Heumjwa and Lee Do-hyeok.

Of course, they didn’t think that way from the beginning.

If you have a competitive spirit, you will never lose to professionals.

[Are you that good at thumping? Follow me to a ranked game!]

-Rather than avoiding Lee Do-hyeok with such thoughts, there were quite a few professionals who targeted him in the beginning.

But in the end they were defeated and defeated.

Right on ‘hmm’.

“Huh? You just said that Xiao Long is the best poet in the country? Hmm···”

Everyone has a plausible plan.

Until you get ‘hmm’.

A comment Lee Do-hyuk made while rotating the ranks.

The rest of the story was omitted, but Lee Do-hyuk’s viewers all knew what would come next.

-Hmm… Randuin’s Xiao Long? That Zhengdun?

-Oh lol I tried again with Randuin as my main character but I got a ‘hmm’ -ㅋㅋㅋ I told you not to mess with Randuin~ -Honestly, if you dig up a shitty character that no one does, who wouldn’t be called the best craftsman?

-But what’s really creepy is that among the guys who were slapped by Dohyuk sensei, if you look at their recent tournament results, not a single one of them has advanced to the quarterfinals. With this, another pro-gamer has been added to the list of victims.

The pros Lee Do-hyeok met while climbing the ranks.

Starting with the person who claimed that he was not Beyond even though he was clearly Beyond, Akuma, Muyishura, Iris, Randuin···(omitted) and countless other victims(?).

Lee Do-hyuk showed two main reactions to them.

It was ‘Hmm···’ and ‘Oh···?’

If you only look at the text, you may wonder what on earth that means, but just like a dog that learns to sing after three years in a private school can recite poetry, and after three days of being together with Jian Chu, it becomes a zither monster, after three days on Lee Do-hyuk’s broadcast, you will be able to interpret the meaning behind that exclamation.

‘Hmm···’ is [Hmm, is that right?].

‘Oh···?’ means [You’re talented].

[Today’s Dohyuk Sensei record: 3 Oh 8 H]

-Oh lol 3oh who are you?

Akuma, Muyeongsura, ZenZen (I don’t know who that is)

[List of pros who received 8 flaws: Gotype, Randuin, Levi······]

Lee Do-hyeok’s ‘hmm’ and ‘oh?’ after the game acted as a kind of talent reader for the pros.

It was so hard to hear that ‘Oh?’ from Lee Do-hyuk that even among professionals, everyone except those who were at least B+ level only heard ‘Hmm..’

That’s why a ‘rank warning’ was sounded among Iron Fist pros for a while.

But even this takes some getting used to.

Slowly, the Iron Fist pros got used to meeting Lee Do-hyeok in the ranks and getting beaten up.

Another rank alert has been issued.

─Kkaang!!

It is for this very reason.

“Ugh, ugh!”

hook-!

Lee Do-hyuk swung his arm.

An opponent that is quickly moving out of orbit.

But I couldn’t go any further back.

If things continue like this, we’ll hit a wall sooner or later.

So, the opponent has no choice but to rush forward.

While raising both arms to guard, he stretches his legs and aims at Lee Do-hyeok’s lower body…

widely-!

Lee Do-hyeok lightly kicks his opponent with the bat handle.

Then, using the rotational force, swing it around.

Kyaang!

Another clear ringing sound.

It didn’t end there.

Bang!

One more.

“Ugh!”

Kkang! Bang! Bang!

Lee Do-hyeok avoids his opponent’s guard and accurately hits only the head.

“Phew.”

[YOU WIN!]

Eventually, not long after, a victory notification pops up.

“Trevor definitely has the best cooking skills.”

-F*ck lol

-Look at him hitting his head while laughing lol

-The sound is really clear lol

At the moment when Lee Do-hyeok was smiling happily and about to turn the next cue.

There was a golden notification that popped up when I turned off the win notifications.

[He ascended to the throne of the Heavenly God]

[Mission Success!]

“Oh, I finally got promoted. I hope those who gave me the mission eat well.. No, thank you.”

RanK #98

Prime GOD

[Hmm, is that right?]

Lee Do-hyuk has already reached the top 100 on the Asian server.

In other words, it means that countless victims’ pots have been broken countless times.

[No, f*ck, Lee Do-hyuk Trevor really seems to have a taste for it]

(Daejeon certification meme) (Daejeon certification meme)

I got hit by more than 10 pots yesterday ㅡㅡ

-Ah lol You can legally break the pot with a bat, so how can you hold it in? lol

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Seeing you meet Dohyuk sensei, I guess you’re also a dog;;

This is the gallery that certified the destruction of this person

N.Pro? I don’t know who it is

There were even numerous posts of damage(?) certifications posted in a community known to be visited by numerous former and current Iron Fist pros.

In fact, even if it’s the same defeat, losing after a fierce fight and losing after being beaten up the whole game are two different feelings.

Because of that, there were countless people who had a headache even before they started playing ranked games when they met Trevor as their opponent.

Anyway-

“Hmm.. Then since I got promoted, that’s it for Iron Fist for today..”

With those words, Lee Do-hyuk ended Iron Fist.

-Ah, finally

-Is this correct?

-dgggg

-Siege quest!

-Valhalla House, haaaaap!!

A few days of waiting for Twitch Rivals to start.

Lee Do-hyeok was also working on Valhalla, and had missed out on a significant portion of the progress.

Clear most of the main quests quickly, and only a few important parts remain until the end.

But for the two days before the competition, I only focused on Iron Fist.

As such, there were quite a few viewers who wanted to play Valhalla.

Doo-doo.

Lee Do-hyeok, who runs Rise of Valhalla.

The screen changes with magnificent background music.

For the King-!

The point where Lee Do-hyeok stopped progressing was right before the siege quest, which can be considered the flower of Rise of Valhalla.

The shouts of soldiers and knights were heard.

Woooooo-!

On the other side, unlike the soldiers, were Vikings wearing uneven clothing.

“All guns, charge!”

“It’s plunder!”

At that time, the battlefield was filled with the roar of people shouting at each other.

Meanwhile, Lee Do-hyuk was also standing there.

Shhh- shhhh-

“Hmm, I feel good today.”

Holding Aunt May’s kitchen knife.

-Ah, here it comes, Rose Cal, lol

-If Iron Fist has Pata, Valhalla has Rose Sword!

-Really, a dragon and a tiger fight

-Would you like to do a mission to kill someone with a rose?

Tiring-

Tiring-

It was the beginning of a massacre.

**

The next day.

An announcement was posted on Lee Do-hyeok’s twerk community.

[Today’s broadcast is on hiatus]

[I’ll issue passports and handle other matters as well!]

Even in these days of developed full-dive technology, large events are often held offline.

EVO in Las Vegas.

With less than two weeks left until the competition, it was necessary to get a passport in advance.

It wasn’t a sudden… it was a break that was announced in advance just before the broadcast yesterday.

But facing it again feels different.

In addition, many viewers expressed their regret in the comments as there were many viewers who did not stay until the end of the show.

-No way

-What do we do!!!

-Today, I went to the forest of Gianchu and got bored.

-There’s nothing to see;;

-What is the girl in black doing? Isn’t the broadcast on?

-I’m a black boy. I’ll be broadcasting later.

The girl in black speaks like that… Huh? Why is it real?

Oh my gosh lol, why is this happening?

ㅋㅋㅋ Next time, if you want to get hit less, you should come and practice

Nner ban sg

Yeah, it’s already banned lol

Nkya, what is the deal with winning?

I wonder who the fan is, because the deal is so fierce ㅋㅋㅋ
