Chapter 5 Samurai Hearts – Tutorial (5)

Dohyun didn’t think much of it, but there was a reason why the enemies didn’t rush at him all at once.

It was simply because Seung-yeon was ready to jump in at any moment from behind, aside from Dohyun right in front.

They would have rushed in all at once if they had a decent opportunity.

And now, Dohyun had dug in too deep, giving them that opportunity.

Even if they were just AIs, they wouldn’t pass up such a good chance for a coordinated attack.

“Die-!”

Seung-yeon’s words were a belated warning.

Before she could even say “Warn-“, the enemies surrounding Dohyun were already thrusting their spears at him.

It was no different from the thrusts the previous enemies had shown, but the story changed when the number tripled.

Spear blades stabbing in from three directions!

It was a situation where he couldn’t deflect them as easily as before.

No, he would have to worry about saving his life, let alone deflecting them!

“Dangerous!”

Seung-yeon, who was watching, shouted in surprise.

Samurai Hearts isn’t a Dynasty Warriors-style game where you can take on dozens of enemies alone.

On the contrary, it was a game where you should think about running away if there were even just three enemies.

This attack was made weak because it was a tutorial, but even so, it was difficult to face three enemies at once.

The goal of the tutorial was to hit and run, eliminating all the enemies!

Seung-yeon chose to face the enemies head-on to show and try out the deflect, but if Dohyun’s attempt had failed, she was planning to run away immediately.

But, distracted by the sudden appearance of the Great Success judgment, Dohyun was now in danger of a game over.

This was clearly her mistake.

‘Fighting one-on-one is on a different level than fighting three at once!’

-Is Kratos going to die?

-Doesn’t look like he can deflect. Looks like he’ll die.

-Is he dead?!

Even the viewers were convinced of Dohyun’s death.

But at that moment.

Unlike Seung-yeon and the viewers, Dohyun didn’t feel any sense of crisis.

Even the three spear blades coming at him didn’t make him nervous.

Because they were too slow to make him nervous.

So slow that he couldn’t even feel it as a crisis.

Rather, Dohyun was even contemplating in the face of the onrushing spear blades.

Not ‘how’ to get out of this situation, but ‘in what way’ to get out of it.

‘Should I deflect these too?’

Earlier, Seung-yeon had asked him to show her the deflect.

He had shown it once accordingly, but wouldn’t just deflecting once be too stingy?

After pondering with a pout, Dohyun finally made a decision.

He decided to show her the deflect once more.

So he did.

Clang, clang, clang-!

With a single swing.

The three spears aimed at him were deflected all at once by the single sword swung in a large arc.

An amount of sparks that couldn’t be compared to before scattered in the air, and the enemies tumbled all at once with short screams.

“Hmph-!”

Dohyun, who had deflected all the spear blades with his first swing, inhaled.

Taking a deep step, he twisted his body and swung his sword again in a large arc.

Slice-

The elegant trajectory drawn by the sword cuts through the necks of the three fallen enemies.

A moment of silence.

Soon after, blood gushed out from the necks of the three enemies all at once.

The enemies, who were gasping while clutching their necks, soon collapsed to the ground and then tilted their heads.

“Hoo······.”

Just two slashes.

That’s all Dohyun needed to kill three enemies.

Dohyun, who had been holding his breath, exhaled and quietly sheathed his sword in the scabbard at his waist.

It was truly a picturesque sight.

“······.”

Seung-yeon watched it with a blank face.

Her mouth was wide open.

It was the expression someone who had seen an unbelievable sight would make.

Seung-yeon, who had been opening and closing her mouth several times, couldn’t say a word in the end.

Instead, the viewer chat room spewed out everything she wanted to say and burst into flames.

-He survived this?

-No, more than that, wasn’t that all three Great Success judgments just now?

-He was able to deflect all three with one swing. That’s amazing, really.

-What was the second one? How did he cut all three?

-D-D-D-D Crazy, crazy

-Physique wow

As explained earlier, Samurai Hearts is not a Dynasty Warriors-style game.

But the scene Dohyun just showed was something you would only see in a Dynasty Warriors-style game.

This was, as the expression goes, a scene that transcended genres.

It was only natural that the viewers were going crazy.

None of them had imagined that they would see such a cool sword swing in Samurai Hearts.

Especially not on Victoria’s broadcast, who was famous for being physically challenged!

‘EyeCleansingPic’ donated ‘10000 won’!

[Today’s eye cleansing is this!]

“Ah, thank you so much for the 10,000 won donation, EyeCleansingPic! I’ll use it well! Eye cleansing······. That’s definitely right. It was a really picturesque scene, wasn’t it?”

‘QuickChangeArtist’ donated ‘1000 won’!

[What was that just now? Was what I saw real?]

“Thank you for the 1,000 won donation, QuickChangeArtist! I can’t believe it either, but it’s real. Wow. That’s really amazing.”

Starting with ‘EyeCleansingPic’s donation, donations continued to pour in.

Donations followed one after another as much as the heated chat room.

It was understandable.

Even those who were proud of their physique were struggling with the Great Success judgment of Samurai Hearts’ deflect.

To succeed three times in a row?

And not just doing it three times, but all at once?

Even including the first two Great Success judgments, it was no different from receiving five consecutive Great Success judgments.

This was a monstrous physique that no one had ever shown before······.

It would be stranger if the viewers didn’t send an enthusiastic response.

“What’s wrong?”

Dohyun, who had returned, asked, looking at Seung-yeon, who was busily responding to the donations.

He didn’t know much about Samurai Hearts, let alone VR games themselves, so he didn’t know the impact of the scene he had shown.

He would have been surprised if he had known.

However, that surprise would have been closer to the feeling of ‘Can’t you even do something this easy?’ rather than the impact of his actions.

“What’s wrong? There is! Of course there is! Is this your first time playing a VR game?”

“Yeah. It is.”

“But what was that just now? How did you get three Great Success judgments at once? Is there some kind of trick to it?”

Dohyun blinked at the barrage of questions.

He had a bewildered expression.

Why was everyone reacting like this to what he had just shown?

What was a Great Success judgment?

And a trick.

There was no trick needed in that scene just now, so it was hard to understand what kind of trick she was talking about.

For him, who was experiencing VR games for the first time today, these were all questions that he couldn’t even understand what they were asking······.

“Ah. So······.”

Seung-yeon, who had been pouring out words in excitement, soon realized the situation after seeing Dohyun’s expression.

In the first place, her brother wouldn’t even know what a Great Success judgment was, so no matter what she asked, he wouldn’t be able to give her a satisfying answer.

In order to get an answer, it was necessary to convey the appropriate knowledge first.

She quickly and simply explained the deflect judgment of Samurai Hearts.

“What I did was a Great Success judgment?”

Dohyun, who had been listening quietly, asked back, tilting his head.

“That’s right.”

“Is it that difficult to do?”

“It’s very difficult.”

Seung-yeon’s answer was very firm.

Although Dohyun had shown her the sight of succeeding five times in a row, that didn’t mean that the inherent difficulty of it was diminished.

If she tried it right now, it would probably take thousands, or even tens of thousands of attempts until she succeeded.

Even if she succeeded, it would only be because she was lucky enough to have the situation match up by breaking through a very small probability, rather than her aiming for it.

Receiving a deflect Great Success judgment was that difficult.

“Difficult?”

But Dohyun couldn’t agree with that.

He didn’t particularly think he had to get a Great Success.

He just did it.

“I don’t know. I just deflected and then slashed.”

There was not a single lie in Dohyun’s words.

He didn’t swing his sword aiming for a Great Success judgment.

He couldn’t have aimed for it in the first place, since he didn’t even know that the judgment was divided into three.

He just deflected because he was told to deflect, and that was a Great Success judgment.

Therefore, he said it without much thought, and Seung-yeon and the viewers were left speechless.

“Oh······. That’s right. I told you to deflect. So you deflected, and that was a Great Success judgment······. I see······. Ahahaha······.”

-Kya, we didn’t know that!

-Just deflect and it’s a Great Success judgment~

-Is this what it feels like to be deceived?

Seung-yeon and the viewers became one and let out a hollow laugh.

The deflect Great Success judgment, which was difficult for them no matter how hard they tried, was just ‘simply’ deflecting for Dohyun.

Suddenly, many of the infamous remarks left by geniuses flashed through their minds.

‘Just do it.’

‘Why can’t you do this?’

‘Huh? Difficult? It’s so easy?’

Geniuses don’t realize that what they do is very difficult for ordinary people.

Just like Dohyun, who is tilting his head right now.

‘HeIsAGod?’ donated ‘1000 won’!

[Is this what they call an Overachiever?]

“Thank you for the 1,000 won donation, HeIsAGod? Ahahaha. I didn’t even know that my brother was such an Overachiever. No, wait a minute. But why me? Why am I like this?”

-lololol Genetic lottery lololol

-Actually, he took all of Victoria’s physique lolololol

-The talent gap between siblings is amazing

Dohyun was standing there blankly because he didn’t understand what Seung-yeon and the viewers were talking about.

Since he didn’t have the basic knowledge, even if he heard that it was difficult, he could only think, ‘How difficult could it be?’

Rather, that attitude made Seung-yeon and the viewers even more fired up.

“Such an attack within the territory.”

It was Tatsuki, who had been standing quietly behind, who interrupted their skit.

Regardless of the process, all the enemies were dead, and since this was judged as a successful event, it was an action to proceed with the next event.

“Moreover, this crest······. This crest belongs to the Nagamatsu Clan, which is next to our territory?”

The armor worn by the dead enemies had a crest of three intersecting circles engraved on it.

Tatsuki, who was examining it in detail, muttered with a puzzled expression.

“But the Atsuragi Family and the Nagamatsu Clan should be allies. Even so, to attack so blatantly······ Could it be?

Red Fox Lord, Black Wolf Lord. Let’s return to the castle quickly!”

Having said that, Tatsuki stared intently at Dohyun and Seung-yeon.

On the surface, it looked like he was telling them to return to the castle as soon as possible, but in reality, it was just that he had finished reciting all the prescribed lines, so he stopped acting.

Thanks to Tatsuki’s sudden intervention, Seung-yeon and the viewers were able to calm down somewhat.

“Yes······. For now, let’s continue with the story. We’ll have a time to verify my brother’s talent later.”

-Wow! New content!

-I’m really looking forward to it

-Is the family collab content building up like this? Her sense of broadcasting is crazy
