I Regressed But The World Didn’T Fall Apart 37

Transcendent Hunter’s Streaming -37-

037.

There is an expression that one’s mouth is shut.

It refers to a situation where one is so surprised or shocked that they cannot speak the words they intended to.

“·········”

Right now, Anatole was in exactly that situation.

His mouth was shut.

The chat box was the same.

The sudden increase in viewers due to Anatole being defeated in Ultimate Fighter.

[Current Viewers: 22,176]

At this moment, on Anatol’s broadcast with over 20,000 viewers, though it was just for a brief moment, no chat messages appeared.

And as soon as one second passed.

-?

-?

-?

-hahahahaha

-Oops

-???

-hahahaha

The chat window started to explode at a frantic pace.

-Oops hahahahaha

-Bahahahaha

-Anatol, you’re talented

-hahahahaha teasing master hahahahaha

-hahahaha let’s be friends, so we can play together next time

Amidst numerous ‘hahahahas’, the chat window went wild.

It was inevitable.

[You seem to be talented. Since I sent a friend request, let’s play together next time.]

That’s how impactful the [Hmm, you’re talented] comment was.

“Uh.. hehehe… talented… right? I do have some talent in Alpa… right?”

Anatol murmured softly.

The already departed Idohyuk, [Hmm, you’re talented].

Thanks to him, Anatol felt strangely lonely in the Daejeon room by himself.

Click-

Anatol accepted Idohyuk’s friend request.

[Hmm, you’re talented (OFFLINE)]

That nickname on the friends list was something… something.

Surely, he didn’t intend to create a nickname for this situation.

Ding-

[‘Rolonogatnatol’ has donated 5,000 won.]

-Just keep it up, you’re talented

“Wow… Never thought I’d hear such words in Alpa, not in a different game.”

Anatol said with a surprised face, shaking his head.

-hahahahaha

-The swordswoman who was in the middle of a dungeon said she fell for that hahahahaha

-Oops hahahahaha

-Still, it was a good match~ Let’s have a drink~

Viewers chuckled at Anatol’s witty remark.

“Who is this guy?”

“Winning a ranked game and saying that is a bit much…”

– Seriously, anyone watching would think they won at the World Championships, lol.

– They crossed the line by saying they won with luck;

– What a bunch of losers lol

– It’s fun, why are the haters so worked up lol

– True lol

– Ugh

Of course, it wasn’t just positive reactions, but they were quickly overwhelmed by other viewers.

“Winning? What are you talking about. Ah, you’re all talk. You crossed the line too. Didn’t you notice even though you’ve been watching? It wasn’t my mistake or luck; they’re just really damn good, you know?”

Even the main character, Anatole, stepped in to push back against those viewers.

– For sure

– With eyes like that, you can’t not be a top-tier player lol

– Anatole might not be in his prime, but the opponent is really good too

– Starting with 5 matches, Poro is unbeatable

“Okay, okay. Stop feeding them. Managers, from now on, if someone crosses the line, ban them instead of just muting.”

And Anatole finished cleaning up the chat.

Ding-

[“HmmWhoCouldItBe” has donated 1,000 won.]

– So, who do you think they are? Any guesses?

– hahahaha lol

– Look at that username change lol

– Hm… Anatole? Who could it be?

“Oh me. I’m going to be teased for a while. Anyway, I have no idea who that person is… Honestly, I have no clue.”

– What about your grandfather’s honor?

– Grandfather: What the;; Give me back my honor;;

– hahahaha lol fml lol

– Geez

Thud-

“Phew. Let me check the replies first. Everyone.”

Anatole entered the match record and started the replay.

If the opponent didn’t add him as a friend, then he must have added them.

Within the game, only those who have added each other as friends can view the replay.

The first replay Anatole watched was the initial match.

Hoken VS Hoken in a mirror match.

He fast forwarded to the key moments.

Thud-

And it stopped at that scene from earlier, the Crimson Flame.

‘…It’s certain.’

It wasn’t a mistake.

After playing five matches, he had a feeling, but now, looking at the replay, he could confirm what he had suspected.

– That scene was epic lol

-Is that filled with Novojeong?

-Yeah, Anatol, that’s why he got hit.

-Really?

-Hongyeomgak is gonna activate, it’s gonna be intense. Seems like a pro player…

“hahahaha.”

Anatol, looking at the chat window, smiled faintly.

‘Not just Hongyeomgak…’

If every move of the opponent wasn’t corrected, how would the chat room react?

He suddenly had that thought, but Anatol didn’t feel the need to reveal that fact.

‘Interesting.’

Lost 5 times in a row.

He wasn’t angry at the fact that he lost.

Rather, he found it enjoyable.

He thought he had mastered everything in the game Ultimate Fighter.

But there was more to strive for.

Perhaps the answer to why he struggled in Iron Fist unlike in Ultimate Fighter might lie there.

And…

‘In reality, I’ve learned something.’

It wasn’t just about admiring [Hmgeujeongdungga]’s play.

If he had settled for just that, he wouldn’t be as happy as he was now.

But he certainly had taken one step further.

Anatol was confident.

If the present him could face himself from a few tens of minutes ago, the present him could surely emerge victorious without much difficulty.

Either way.

Plop-

“I’ll stop the replay here.”

Anatol turned off the replay altogether.

-Ouch

-Wow, I was curious about the analysis

-Gasp

-Oh no, why?ㅠㅠ

He paid no mind to the viewers’ protests.

There was a reason for that.

“Come to think of it, you don’t even know that I’m broadcasting, yet you want it aired as you please.”

Not only had he not received permission for broadcasting…

[Dark Girl]

[Tsuki]

[Beyond]

[Defender]

[Marionette]

[Bermuda]

.

[CaptainQ]

[RaW.EF]

‘It’s been a while.’

Numerous familiar names appeared as he scanned through the viewer list, all veterans of the Alpa circuit.

Names that once clashed with him over the throne were now visible.

What could everyone be thinking now?

Perhaps thoughts like, ‘What? Anatol got eliminated? For five rounds straight? Isn’t he just stuck on Iron Fist these days, losing his touch? If I beat him…?’ Such musings might be crossing their minds, contemplating the idea of toppling the enigmatic grandmaster [Heumgeujeongdungga] with their own hands.

It was all to claim the title of the undefeated grandmaster, a title Anatol himself failed to achieve.

‘Well, that’s unlikely.’

Anatol couldn’t imagine someone else defeating the one who bested him, [Heumgeujeongdungga].

And even if that were to happen, it wouldn’t tarnish the name ‘Anatol’ he had built over the years in the Ultimate Fighter.

Even if he were no longer the strongest in the Ultimate Fighter, he would remain at its pinnacle.

Simply put.

‘You all need to experience it too.’

The shock, awe, and disbelief Anatol felt in the battle against [Heumgeujeongdungga].

Wouldn’t it be fitting for those villains to experience it as well?

In essence, Anatol’s thoughts were along these lines.

‘I can’t be the only one on the receiving end.’

The reason he ended the replay.

The reason he decided to delete the VOD after the broadcast.

Snick-

A smile crept onto Anatol’s lips.

**

Without exaggeration, the entire Ultimate Fighter community exploded.

Not just within the Alpa scene, but chaos erupted in every gaming community related to esports.

Anatol.

Those three letters once symbolized the pride of Korean gamers.

For those who remembered those days, it was an event worth celebrating.

[Crazy about the mysterious grandmaster ‘Heumgeujeongdungga’. Araboja]

1. Suddenly appears during a dark girl’s guild mission and claims ‘that victory.’

Of course, at that time, Geumnyeon was still playing as Yamashichi ㅋㅋ

2. After winning against Harang, Geumnyeon switches to Harang and requests a rematch.

3. Keeps losing even with the main character, and suffers another perfect defeat ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Then, a word to Geumnyeon and an immediate logout.

What did he say?

‘Hmm, The Mysterious One’

4. After that, everyone started guessing who this person was.

Some said they were Beyond, not Wilder, or even a Barefoot Warrior… There were so many speculations. Honestly, I thought it was Anatol 100%.

Was it because only Anatol, who could play with the Dark Girl like that, was an Alpha Gamer?

But…

5. Anatol turned on Alpha Queue for the first time after the broadcast of the tournament review, and that person, ‘Hmm, The Mysterious One’ from the rumors, was caught as an opponent.

Was it a wait-and-snipe strategy?

6. Anatol, 5 consecutive victories.

7. I watched the live stream (now deleted, they say ‘Hmm, The Mysterious One’ will solve it by winning. Otherwise, they will solve it even if someone else wins), it’s not a lie, they are really good.

Not just playing around like the Dark Girl… How should I put it…

Can you read Anatol’s moves perfectly? It feels like being one step ahead? That kind of feeling.

Not just in the Hoken Mirror Match, but also against the Swordsman Ronan, and even the Lancer (although he was the most agile).

8. And then ‘that incident’ exploded.

(Chat capture of the crazy Teebagging against ‘Hmm, The Mysterious One’)

-Wtf hahahahaha

-You’re talented hahahaha, Anatol will fall for this?

-No way, is this for real?

-Yeah, it’s totally true

-hahahaha let’s team up again next time, it’s so funny for real

-No way hahahaha found a sandbag

-Isn’t Anatol just losing his touch because he’s not playing Alpha for a long time?

-(Capture) (Capture)

-Anatol turned off the broadcast and trash-talked on his main, then got 9 consecutive wins

-If you look, all the opponents he faced were former pros

-hahahahaha why are they suddenly playing Alpha? Is it because the Iron Fist tournament ended?

-There’s news that a mysterious high-level player who could beat Anatol appeared, so everyone came back to try catching him hahahaha

-The Dark Girl lost twice, but still, Anatol who didn’t lose is becoming more impressive…

-(Capture)

-Why is this guy so stubborn?

-hahahaha ‘Hmm, The Mysterious One’ ranked up to catch me, but only faced returnees, earning 6 consecutive losses hahahaha

-Anatol only suffered 5 consecutive losses, but the Dark Girl, who alone suffered 6 consecutive losses, is still unexpectedly impressive.

Thus, at that time when Lee Do-hyuk’s Ultimate Fighter account ‘Hmm, The Mysterious One’ was gaining various nicknames like Teebagging, Exploiting, Crazy High-Level Player, there was someone expressing annoyance towards ‘Hmm, The Mysterious One’ that emerged from the depths of their heart.

“If it wasn’t for this guy, oppa would be number 1 on Hot Clips!”

That person was Ji-an.

Lee Do-hyuk didn’t know, but Ji-an had known since yesterday after the broadcast ended that Lee Do-hyuk’s Bahalla play video had climbed to 3rd place on the Hot Clips page.

“Guys, oppa’s video is currently at 3rd place!”

It seems like it will be 1st place soon! hehehe

From Noble mtl dot com

-Oh nice

-K

-Is this my younger brother? Is this my younger brother?

-Why don’t I have a sibling like this?

Different vibes.

Banana

-Oh, there’s not much time left until 1st place.

She even interacted with viewers on Lee Dohyuk’s community, waiting for his video to reclaim the top spot.

She had planned to capture the moment he reached 1st place and create some buzz like, “[Rookie who achieved 1st place in hot clip on Day 1 of broadcast?]”

But then, this happened.

Just as Lee Dohyuk’s Valla video was about to reclaim the 1st place spot!

Suddenly, out of nowhere, the “Hm, is that right?” and Anatol’s Ultimate Fighter match video started rapidly gaining views and snatched the 1st place position.

Tap- Tadak-

And there was Jian, who even left such a comment.

-Jianchu: Hm… Is that right?

Banana, this one’s legit, let’s post it, whoa

What are you gonna post; are you a kid?

Kya, Jianchu is also a fan of Hm, is that right?

For sure lol

Of course, she wanted to leave a proper hate comment, but with only one Twok account, she couldn’t do that.

Even if it didn’t seem that way to others, Jian, in her own way, left a comment meaning, “Is this really worth making such a fuss about?”

“Hmph! What’s so great about it? Our oppa is an expert, right? As soon as he starts the game, he’ll win.”

She hadn’t seen her brother play, but he probably was like that.

**

Zzing-

Capsule closing.

After finishing his morning workout, Lee Dohyuk showered and went straight into the capsule.

“For now, should I slow down the progress in Valla?”

The advice given by Jian and BlackOrc.

It was said that for live broadcasts, it’s best to show only the most entertaining parts to viewers.

In between, he could criticize the boring parts alone, and even show only the highlights on the broadcast.

Following that advice, Lee Dohyuk planned to progress Valla to the parts viewers would enjoy and start the broadcast.

“······”

There was still quite a bit of time left until the scheduled broadcast start time.

So, was that why?

There was something that kept catching Lee Dohyuk’s gaze.

“Should I play just one round?”

The Ultimate Fighter that he had faced yesterday, almost within reach.

Its icon seemed to be calling out to him.

Of course, Valla had its own fun, but that was just a single-player game.

The temptation lay in the competition system where he could compete with other users, raise his rank through victories, and place his ID on the rankings.

In fact, even during his Hunter days, he was quite concerned about his Hunter ranking.

Tap-

“Okay. Just one round…”

With that thought in mind, Lee Dohyuk started Ultimate Fighter.

Still, if the cues weren’t quickly picked up like yesterday, he was ready to give up and proceed with Valor.

Thud!

Fortunately, not long after, he found an opponent right away.

The silhouette gradually emerging.

“Hmm?”

Lee Dohyuk squinted.

[Dark Girl]

One of the mysterious people in his friend list.

“Found you!”

It was a match with the Dark Girl.

“hehehe. Finally!”

“…”

“Do you know how many times I’ve rewatched the matches we had? Including the one with Anatole yesterday!”

“…”

Not sure why she was acting alone like this.

“I’ve completely analyzed your patterns! It’s going to be different this time!”

The Dark Girl seemed quite excited.
