Chapter 26 Samurai Hearts – Reaction (4)

VGC, a comprehensive hypernet broadcasting community site.

Seung-yeon, like most people who watch personal broadcasts, was naturally aware of this large community.

And it wasn’t just awareness.

After her broadcasts ended, checking posts about her broadcast by frequently visiting the site was her secret hobby.

She would browse the site, giving upvotes to posts praising her broadcast and subtly downvoting those criticizing it.

This remained the same even after the broadcast became immensely popular due to the Dohyun effect.

She meticulously searched through the numerous posts about herself, giving each one an upvote or downvote.

And simultaneously, she was doing one more thing.

‘I should show this to Dohyun.’

That was showing the community posts to her younger brother, Dohyun.

[Sister: Hey]

[Brother: What?]

[Sister: Is this post true?]

─Victoria’s broadcast was hilarious at the end lol

Dohyun trying so hard to pretend he didn’t see it was so funny lololol

The conclusion after agonizing over how to make this fool into a human being was to cut ties lol

You could feel Victoria getting pissed from when she started showing off self-harm style swordsmanship lololol

Wasn’t that a kind of curse that made even the viewers want to get cancer?

-Self-harm style swordsmanship lololol

-Poster: She saved the broadcast but probably wanted to beat the crap out of her brother lololol

-Victoria is definitely a broadcasting genius. It was laughter no one expected

-Agreed, agreed, easy agreed

-Dohyun surprised by unexpected spiciness!

-Mystery how he didn’t recognize the spiciness in the tutorial?

-He acted like a human being in the tutorial. That’s why he was even more surprised lololol

[Brother: ……No comment]

[Sister: No, that’s already a comment, you bad boy!]

[Brother: lololololol]

Seung-yeon, having told her brother to prepare to get hit on the back for every “ㅋ” he sent, continued to search for community posts.

The content she mainly sent to Dohyun consisted of posts praising him, generally with this kind of feel.

─Today too, Sword Saint did Sword-Saint things

Leaving aside the Three Sword Masters being crushed

I couldn’t help but be amazed watching Kato turn into minced meat in an instant

Is that really the mid-boss of Chapter 1?

I’m reflecting on myself after being violated by tentacles and failing 5 times……

-I also failed against Kato more than 10 times lololol

-He deserves to be called a Sword Saint; he really is abusing the boss

-I was blown away watching him bisect seven tentacles at once

-Poster: That was a clip-worthy moment

[Sister: Look at this lololol They’re praising you like crazy]

[Brother: Doesn’t seem like a very difficult boss, though]

[Sister: That’s just for you. Everyone else is saying your physical skills are insane lololol]

[Brother: Is that so?]

Praise makes even whales dance.

That was what Seung-yeon was aiming for.

To make Dohyun dance like a praised whale, making him even more interested in broadcasting.

So that he would lead the broadcast more proactively.

She wanted him to create broadcasts with her, matching her pace, instead of being passively dragged along by her as he was now.

‘Seems like it’s working, though.’

Even if he pretended otherwise, she could feel that he liked people being enthusiastic about him.

She could sense it because she was his sister.

If he really hated it, he would have told her to stop sending them.

It was clear that he was subtly anticipating the reactions to himself.

‘Maybe a little more and it’ll work?’

Seung-yeon continued to explore VGC.

Upvoting posts praising herself, and downvoting posts with bad reviews.

Perhaps because she had just finished broadcasting, VGC was overflowing with posts about her, and she cast her consciousness into the endless stream of posts…

─Victoria is so cute lololol

─What’s the Sword God’s cape? It’s so cool

─Sword God’s Kato Strategy.avi

─Sword Saint: Hey, give me back my sword

Unaware of Seung-yeon’s actions, viewers continued to post about her on VGC.

The 80,000 viewers who had poured out after Victoria’s broadcast had begun to move in earnest.

Even if only half of them posted one thing each, that would be 40,000 posts.

Naturally, it wasn’t difficult to temporarily take over VGC.

─Victoria bulletin board share real?

I couldn’t watch it because I was slaving away at work today

Can someone explain it properly?

Was it as legendary as the last broadcast?

-It was legendary

-Poster: Say what was legendary

-How can I say when everything was legendary; the one who didn’t see it is an idiot

-The new event was legendary, the Swordsmanship School founding was legendary, the spiciness was legendary too

-Poster: School founding? Is there something like that in Samurai Hearts?

-There wasn’t

-There was

-Poster: Ha… I can’t stand the curiosity; when will the replay be uploaded;

The attention of those who hadn’t watched the broadcast, and those who weren’t very interested in Victoria, turned to Victoria’s broadcast due to the numerous posts.

As interest grew, those who were posting naturally got excited.

They picked up the pace and more posts were uploaded, and more broadcast stories began to be shared on VGC.

─Summary of Victoria’s broadcast today.txt

I’ll summarize only the key points for those who are curious

Hidden challenge reward cape is super cool (image attached)

New event ‘Trial of the Three Sword Masters’

Can found a Swordsmanship School if you pass the trial

Sword Saint founded Sword God Style and became Sword God

Her spiciness is ‘real’.

End

-This is totally an eye-level teacher;

-I understood immediately, Sensei… Thank you…

-So that’s what Sword God is

-What’s School founding again;

When a post with this kind of content was uploaded to the hot topics, interest flared up even more.

What those who hadn’t watched the broadcast were most curious about was the founding of a Swordsmanship School.

─Was it possible to found a Swordsmanship School?

It came out on Victoria’s broadcast

Does anyone know the details?

-It literally means founding a completely new Swordsmanship School, not just choosing one of the existing ones

-Poster: Is that possible?

-It’s possible, so she did it, do some research, you idiot

-There’s a ton of talk about it, you want to know but you’re too lazy to look it up yourself?

Samurai Hearts is a hot content.

That meant that there were many people playing it and many people watching it on broadcast.

That was because Samurai Hearts was a new game that hadn’t been out for long, and at the same time, it had many undiscovered elements.

The production team officially said that there were many more unrevealed endings left, so that said it all.

Naturally, broadcasters and gamers were getting heated up to find them out.

In the midst of that, the founding of a new Swordsmanship School was revealed.

Not choosing an existing Swordsmanship School in Samurai Hearts, but being able to create your own unique school.

What an attractive story that was.

─How do you found a Swordsmanship School?

─How do you get Sword God Style?

It was revealed that it was possible to found a Swordsmanship School, and someone had actually done it.

As a natural sequence, people’s thoughts converged on one point.

How did they do it?

What conditions must be met?

─Swordsmanship School Founding Condition Prediction (Brain-Fiction)

The only thing that Sword God did differently from others was the tutorial

What she achieved there was

Tutorial Sword Saint Destroying

Hidden Challenge: Twenty-Man Cut

These were the two things

In my opinion, you don’t have to achieve both, you only need to clear one

Probably the first one, Tutorial Sword Saint Destroying, is more likely

-No, brain-fiction bitch

-Poster: It’s just brain-fiction lol

-You made me excited and then it’s just brain-fiction lololol

-So, did you clear it?

-Crazy lol Destroying the Tutorial Sword Saint? No way lololol

-The opening condition is shameless lololol

-Is that even possible without Sword God?

The speculation about the Swordsmanship School founding conditions wasn’t very difficult.

Dohyun and Seung-yeon had only done Samurai Hearts broadcasts twice, and the only one where the conditions could be confirmed was the first broadcast.

The problem was the difficulty of the confirmed conditions.

─Do you really think this makes sense?

A big event like Swordsmanship School founding

Made so that only one person who has transcended humanity can succeed?

Does the production company want their heads smashed?

-Does that mean ordinary gamers shouldn’t even dream about it;

-Poster: Even Sword God barely destroyed it; it’s completely impossible

-They’re just telling us not to do it lololol

-Why did they make something like this lololol Did you want to see human victory?

It was natural for people to rebel.

The Sword Saint of the tutorial was famous as an undefeated monster until Dohyun defeated him.

Just surviving against him was enough to get your physical skills recognized, but an event that only opened if you defeated such a monster.

How was that any different from telling them not to do it at all?

It was no different from deceiving gamers.

However, soon, one broadcaster started his broadcast, and their thoughts underwent a dramatic change.

Broadcaster ‘Khan’.

He was a professional gamer of the VR game ‘Psychic Wars’, and a super-giant enterprise broadcaster boasting an average of 50,000 broadcast viewers and a maximum of 150,000 viewers.

If you were to pick the biggest enterprise broadcaster on Trikey, he would definitely be in the top five. He suddenly turned on his broadcast.

“Hello, everyone. I’m turning on the broadcast a bit suddenly today.”

-Khanha!

-Why are you broadcasting early?

-Is the Earth going to be destroyed tomorrow?

-The sun will rise in the west tomorrow

Khan usually announced the broadcast time in advance and then turned on the broadcast accordingly, but today was particularly sudden.

The reason for that was soon revealed through Khan’s mouth.

“I’m turning on the broadcast a bit early because of the noisy thing on VGC this time. Yes. As you all know, it’s because of the Swordsmanship School founding.”

-I had a feeling lol

-Hurriedly

-Solemn

-As expected, Trikey’s best physical ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Trikey’s best physical.

That was Khan’s nickname.

It was somewhat faded since Dohyun became famous after appearing on broadcast, but that didn’t mean Khan’s physical skills were lacking.

Khan was also the first to endure the longest against Sword Saint Kato and hear the words, “Truly excellent, warrior!”

As such, he would be broadcasting about the suddenly trending Swordsmanship School founding.

“It’s noisy because of the Swordsmanship School founding conditions. I was shocked when I saw it too. I mean, why would they set the event opening conditions to impossible conditions?”

-Agreed

-Agreed

-This is right

-The production company has udon noodles in their heads

-I want to make a Swordsmanship School

“But when I think about it, there’s something strange. No matter how thoughtless the production team is, would they set conditions that no one can do? Why would they bother to create an event when no one can do it?”

The viewers buzzed at Khan’s question.

It wasn’t wrong.

There was no way there would be developers who would bother to create an event that players couldn’t proceed with.

It would be hard enough to make other things, so why bother?

“In my opinion, Swordsmanship School founding is a 2nd playthrough element. Everyone didn’t realize it because Kratos progressed too quickly in the 1st playthrough.”

-Is there something different between the 1st and 2nd playthroughs

-But you can’t catch the Sword Saint even in the 2nd playthrough

-That’s right; no one has caught him so far

-If that was possible, it wouldn’t be burning like this;

“I think the idea that you have to catch the Sword Saint is also wrong. This is also because Kratos completely caught the Sword Saint, and there’s one more thing.”

Khan smiled.

The number of viewers was rapidly increasing as he, who was famous as Trikey’s best physical, began to tell stories about the Swordsmanship School founding.

That meant that people who were thirsty for information about the Swordsmanship School founding were flowing into his broadcast.

“That’s Two Heavens Style. The Sword Saint showed Two Heavens Style for the first time while fighting Kratos. My guess is that you only need to see that to found a Swordsmanship School.”

Completely defeating the Sword Saint versus seeing the Sword Saint using Two Heavens Style.

The latter is definitely less difficult.

Moreover, the basic stats would be higher in the 2nd playthrough, and you would also be learning swordsmanship.

Enduring tenaciously and seeing Two Heavens Style was a difficulty level that could be achieved if you were reasonably good at the game.

If you couldn’t even do that, well…

“Then I should prove it right away?”

Khan didn’t bother to add any more explanations.

Everything was just speculation, and in the end, all he had to do was prove whether his words were true or not.

And he, who once had the nickname of Trikey’s best physical, had enough ability to do so.

Fortunately, he had 2nd playthrough data, so it didn’t take long to confirm his speculation.

“The current successor of Two Heavens Style, Hatsuragi Kato. Now I will truly cut you down.”

When these words came out of the mouth of the Sword Saint holding two swords, Khan clenched his fist.

“Okay! 1 try success! Now I’ll die right away!”

Defeated by the Sword Saint using Two Heavens Style.

Then, after proceeding with all the words with Tengu, when he arrived at the empty lot after passing the hermit.

“Heh heh. I spoke unnecessarily. You even stood up to that monstrous Sword Saint. They are also interested in you. Why don’t you have a chat with them.”

-Wow, you really only need to see Two Heavens Style

-It should be okay to endure in the 2nd playthrough

-We got tricked by Sword God lololol

The viewers went wild as the dialogue before the ‘Trial of the Three Sword Masters’ event came out.

Of course, the content was slightly different from what Dohyun had done, but that was only a small part.

Khan explained calmly.

“It wasn’t revealed because there weren’t any people who deliberately fought the Sword Saint in the 2nd playthrough. I just died because it didn’t matter if I lost anyway. This is surprisingly a trick.”

-We got tricked properly

-Trikey’s highest intelligence

-Thanks, I’m going to do it right away

-If my head gets smashed in the 2nd playthrough, can I give up?

“I won’t proceed with the story any further. It’s not an element I discovered, and it’s too shameless to proceed with it first on my broadcast. I already have something I was doing.”

Khan ended Samurai Hearts before the ‘Trial of the Three Sword Masters’ event.

From the beginning, all he wanted to do was prove the Swordsmanship School founding, so there was no hesitation.

That was also the boldness of a broadcaster called a super-giant enterprise who didn’t care about the number of viewers.

“Anyway, Kratos is really amazing. He did this all at once in the 1st playthrough? He deserves to be called Trikey’s best physical, no, the world’s best physical. Really. I acknowledge it.”

-Khan is praising someone for their physical skills for the first time;

-He seems to be the world’s best physical

-Right words recommendation

Khan, having left a word of praise, began to proceed with his broadcast.

After the Swordsmanship School founding was proven through Khan’s broadcast, related information began to spread quickly in the community.

As a matter of course, this fact was instantly conveyed to Seung-yeon, who was watching the community with hawk eyes.

However, what Seung-yeon paid attention to was the part where Khan mentioned Dohyun.

‘This is crazy, really…!’

Unlike Seung-yeon, who had a surprise hit, Khan, a broadcaster who could be called Trikey’s TOP5, directly mentioned Dohyun on his broadcast.

This was sure to spread with a ripple effect that couldn’t be compared to Dum Dum or Kang Yeon-woo.

Khan was a super-giant enterprise broadcaster who even had foreign viewers.

Her face flushed with excitement, she hurriedly ran and roughly opened Dohyun’s door.

“Dohyun! Big news!”

“……Ugh, you startled me. What is it now.”

“Khan praised you on his broadcast! He said you’re the world’s best physical. The world’s best physical!”

Dohyun blinked at Seung-yeon’s words.

“Khan? Who’s that? A soccer player?”

“……Ah, that’s right. You don’t watch broadcasts.”

Seung-yeon sighed in disappointment.

Her younger brother, Dohyun, wouldn’t know how great this was because he didn’t know about broadcasts.

She was sad that this excitement was only hers…
