The Villain is Too Good at Broadcasting

Chapter 6: Hyung, you said you gamed a little in the past? (6)

Dont tell me, you really killed all those people with that crowbar?

It was definitely more fun to fight like this than to play shooting games.

Was it because of what I had just experienced?

A thrilling sensation ran up my arms.

I nodded my head, lightly swinging the bloody crowbar.

I had been worried that it would feel awkward since it had been so long since I last played a VR game.

But all that anxiety had been for nothing.

Perhaps due to the higher synchronisation rate, I was able to move much more easily than I had in < Gaia Online >.

5 minutes into the game.

There had already been 6 users who had been sent to hell by me.

In the past, I would have been able to get more than 20 kills by myself, but I guess it was a bit harder to do so now because I was just a beginner.

Well, I, personally, didnt get to farm, but my equipment was pretty flashy thanks to having thrashed 6 people.

< Helmet of Faith (Legendary) >

< Armour of the Knight King (Legendary) >

< Footsteps of the Goddess (Rare) >

The helmet and armour were legendary grade. Although the shoes were only rare, they could significantly increase the wearers movement speed.

In fact, even I, who didnt know much about this game, thought it was a pretty good harvest.

I looked around with a satisfied smile.

There didnt seem to be any other survivors in the training hall.

Hyung!

Except for one ungrateful dongsaeng who abandoned his hyung and went off on his own.

Where did Jinhyukie go to farm? He was wearing purple items which meant that they were rare.

He seemed to have eaten well after having left his hyung.

Whats all this?

They suddenly rushed at me.

Dont tell me, you really killed all those people with that crowbar?

Jinhyukie spoke as he looked at the bloodstained crowbar I was holding in my right hand.

Somehow.

Where did you get that equipment?

Where do you think it came from, farming hard with my crowbar.

Crowbar farming?

Yeah, corpse farming.

It wasn't that hard.

Jinhyukie looked first at me then back at my equipment before shaking his head.

"Did you ever play Excalibur while you were on leave?"

"Today's my first time. I quit gaming."

"Insane, how did you kill people wearing armour and helmets with a crowbar?"

At my dongsaeng's question, the broadcast chat window he had shared with me began to go wild.

• hahaha stay strong Dr. Freeman.
• crowbar >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> all other weapons
• I can't believe he got them with a crowbar!
• that's not how youre supposed to use it..

It was still a low quality chat.

What were they trying to say though? The crowbar wasn't a weapon?

Then why was this thing rolling around?

"The crowbar is supposed to be used like this."

Jinhyukie personally demonstrated it for me.

He shook slightly as I handed the crowbar over to him, but afterwards, he immediately walked over to the door in the corner of the drill hall.

Soon after, he hooked the crowbar in the gap between the door and the frame and forced it open.

"It's for opening doors."

"Then why could I equip the crowbar earlier?"

"It's a game."

"Well, I guess thats true."

"By the way, Hyung, can I ask you something?"

Jinhyukie asked as he returned the crowbar to me.

I nodded lightly, looking at him.

"What is it?"

"I mean, really, how did you kill people with a crowbar? It deals super weak damage."

"Ahhh, that? It's very easy."

It wasn't exactly difficult.

"You just beat them until they're dead."

".Huh?"

"You also need to dodge like hell when the enemy attacks, of course. Other than that, it's fine."

Once again, the chat caught on fire.

• hahahaha he's right.
• just beat them until they're dead. agreed
• if his crowbar is this hard.. what's he like in bed?
• this guy.. is a fucking crazy bastard!

I spoke frankly.

I hated lying, so I openly revealed the truth.

As soon as he heard my answer, Jinhyukie opened his mouth and said: "Well, it's still a weak weapon, so you should pick up a sword as soon as"

His words were cut off.

Someone had sent a sponsorship message which popped up with a loud notification.

Mission Villain' sponsored 10,000 won!

[From now until the end of the match: if you win the game, you'll receive 10,000 won per kill with the crowbar. One time offer.]

Oh! A mission?

Jinhyukie's attitude of trying to dissuade me from continuing to use the crowbar did an about-turn.

He kicked away the swords on the ground nearby, saying:

"What are you doing? Quick, let's go make some money."

Hearing Jinhyukie speak so confidently, I laughed.

"Hey."

"Yeah?"

"My cut is 90%."

"Hyung, why are you, between us.."

"I'm unemployed, so I'm a little sensitive when it comes to money."

Truth be told, I had once thought about doing my own broadcast.

I ran raids with famous streamers, and I was pretty well known.

But then that incident occurred, and I became public enemy number one.

I used to lurk on internet forums, and every day, I would be bombarded with slander and curses against me. In the end, I had no choice but to give up and join the army.

I don't regret that decision now.

Thanks to that choice, Jinhyukie was looking at me with a smile on his face.

That's all there was to it.

Besides, it was great to be able to enjoy a game and make money after such a long time.

There was little chance of my identity being revealed.

Back when I played <Gaia Online>, I used to customise everything until I looked completely different. Even my voice had changed.

So to put it very simply.

"Let's go collect money."

It was time to enjoy capitalism.

10,000 won is roughly $8.50 USD
