[Guild] Mocha Bread: Breaking News

[Guild] Mocha Bread: Sleepy enters the top 10 in rankings in two days

[Guild] Mocha Bread: “Honestly, it’s easy” statement... Everyone was shocked

[Guild] Drink some water: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Guild] Park Seung-jin99: kya crazy crazy, huh

[Guild] TheHunter: Cool omg

[Guild] I’m sleepy: No, when did I say that? ㅋㅋㅋ

[Guild] Harn: After saying that Yoo Chae is pretty, he went on to say that rankings are easy;;

[Guild] Bright Clouds: the saying maker itself

[Guild] Staric: Is it possible to enter the top 10 in two days?

[Guild] Staric: while being an office worker and that?..

[Guild] Crazy hunting friend: Staric-nim, I think you’re getting hit with reality rn

[Guild] I’m sleepy: I’ve never lost and won consecutively, so they gave me good points

[Guild] Harn: The shorter the winning streak, the more points are awarded

[Guild] Harn: As long as you don’t stop your winning streak, you will accumulate good points

[Guild] Harn: That’s because it’s tough^^;

[Guild] Drink some water: fr If winning streak was easy, anyone would do it

[Guild] Manaolingnam: No, I understand the streak of giving in a hundred times

[Guild] Manaolingnam: It’s a shame to take extra points

[Guild] Manaolingnam: How much did you beat up the hell out of themㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Guild] Mocha Bread: That’s what I want to ask as well

[Guild] I’m sleepy: ㅋㅋ

[Guild] I’m sleepy: What can I do when my opponent can’t do it?ㅋ

[Guild] Drink some water: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ fk

[Guild] Park Seung-jin99: Wow!

[Guild] Crazy hunting friend: Wow, that’s out of the question.

[Guild] Seasoned crab sauce: Sleepy, I heard it wasn’t like this before...

[Guild] Seasoned crab sauce: Why did you become a monster?ㅠㅠ

[Guild] I’ll take care of you: Since Yoo Chae-nim left the guild, Sleepy-nim became a monster.

[Guild] Bright Clouds: Monster Preservation Law

[Guild] Harn: What ur score now??

[Guild] I’m sleepy: 880 points

[Guild] Mocha Bread: ㅋㅋlook at the clean score

[Guild] Let’s do this: I know you’re a monster, that won 11 times in a row

[Guild] Drink some water: Keep accumulating points until you reach 4th place, right?

[Guild] I’m sleepy: yeah Just a 1200 points more

[Guild] I’m sleepy: I’m still doing matching

As the score accumulated, the matching time also increased. This meant that there were very few users who could match me.

After about 5 minutes, the opponent seemed to have been caught and the ranking match began. As I took a sip of the drink placed in front of me and looked at the monitor, a somewhat familiar nickname of someone came into view.

“Hmm?”

Melody Code? That Melody Code I know? As I laughed at the unexpected meeting, the other person must have seen my username, and a messenger chat message came through.

[Melody Code: Ah what is it ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[Melody Code: Why are you here?? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[I’m sleepy: hi]

During ranked matches, the chat window was locked, so messenger was the only way to communicate. As I sent an appropriate response, I was reminded that Melody Code had the same job.

If it was met as soon as it entered the top 10, Melody Code must have accumulated quite a few points. Well, my game sense wasn’t bad since the Guardian Guild Selection back in the day, so I deserved to come up here.

[Melody Code: The shame I suffered in the past...]

[Melody Code: It’s time to pay back]

[I’m sleepy: ㅋ]

[I’m sleepy: Fighting ^^]

[Melody Code: ㅋㅋㅋㅋ f1k]

<System> The ranking match will begin soon. Get ready for battle! 

<System> 3, 2, 1

<System> Battle begins!

As soon as Melody Code finished speaking, the battle began. I moved without hesitation.

I moved my hand leisurely as I watched Melody Code closing the distance using the thruster.

[Melody Code: Ouch, you son of a bitch]

[I’m sleepy: Why are you swearing like that?]

Melody Code, who had lost miserably this time following the selection match, sent a chat full of anger as soon as the ranking match ended.

[Melody Code: Why do u have a 9th level staff, sad?]

[Melody Code: I’m really shocked ㅋㅋ]

[I’m sleepy: I took this photo during the ranking match haha]

[Melody Code: Ha]

[Melody Code: lost due to differences in specs]

[I’m sleepy: It’s not a difference in skill, is it?]

[Melody Code: Shut up]

As I was playing around with the Melody Code, my cell phone, which I had thrown nearby, vibrated. It was Chae Yoo-jeong’s call.

[Melody Code: nim Please cue quickly]

[Melody Code: quick]

[Melody Code: Hurry up so we can meet one more time!!!]

[I’m sleepy: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ do u want me to kill u again?]

[I’m sleepy: I can’t do that because I’m on the phone]

[I’m sleepy: Next time, let’s do it]

[Melody Code: Ah]

If it had been someone else’s phone call, I would have ignored it and played the game, but since it was Chae Yoo-jeong, of course my choice was to call. I typed to Melody Code, who begged to do it one more time and pressed the call connection button.

“Unn, Yoo-jeong.”

-Hyung.

When I heard the soft voice coming from the other end of the phone, a smile came to my face. I asked, leaning my upper body against the back of the chair.

-Yes. The interview schedule was changed to be held after the vacation.

“Did it go well?”

After complaining that you didn’t want to go for the interview, I guess you were finally able to change the schedule. It may be possible because not only Chae Yoo-jeong but also other team members disliked it.

“Good.”

For me, the postponement of the interview was quite good news.

Chae Yoo-jeong has already worked hard throughout the season, so why are interviews scheduled so frequently? During his vacation, I wanted him to peacefully rest.

-I can’t even watch Hyung play games because of the meeting. I’m really annoyed.

I burst into laughter at the very glum look.

He was Chae Yoo-jeong, who liked my decision to compete in a ranking match more than anyone else. Chae Yoo-jeong, who was excited and said that he would definitely watch the game since the spectator function will be available starting from the top 10, was unable to watch a single game because as soon as I entered the top 10, he was dragged into a meeting.

“I haven’t even played a few rounds yet.”

-Still.

“Hmm…………”

I thought for a moment and then asked.

“Yoo-jeong.”

-Yes?

“Do you want to see it? The ranking match.”

-How?

“I recorded everything.”

When playing a fighting game like this, recording was essential. This is because it can be useful when reviewing your play or meeting against a hack user. Although Zenoris does not have hack user, it’s still pretty useful.

- Really? All 11 rounds?

“12 rounds. Because I just played one more round.”

-I want to see it! I want to see you!

Chae Yoo-jeong was so excited because he had no idea that I had recorded it. I tilted my head and spoke to Chae Yoo-jeong, who gave the exact reaction I expected.

“Then take a selfie and send it to me.”

-Ugh… yes?

“Make sure your face comes out well. Then I’ll give you the recorded video.”

It was one of my favorite things these days. This is Chae Yoo-jeong’s photo.

Not satisfied with just collecting photos from Chae Yoo-jeong’s fan cafe and photos from articles, I also wanted photos taken by Chae Yoo-jeong himself. But it wasn’t easy to collect Chae Yoo-jeong because he wouldn’t send me selfies unless I paid him like this. Tsk.

“Not the one you took before, but the one you took now.”

-Hyu-Hyung...……………

“There’s no use calling me cutely.”

When I firmly answered that I would also give him a recorded video if he sent me a selfie, Chae Yoo-jeong, who realized that his cuteness wasn’t working, hesitated and then opened his mouth.

-Now?

“Um, now.”

………Can you show your face?

“Yes, let everything come out without anything hidden.”

-Hyung… I’m still in the dorm’s conference room.

“There’s no one around.”

Chae Yoo-jeong was mostly confused as if he didn’t want others to see him talking on the phone with me.

He used to make phone calls while I was sleeping. Chae Yoo-jeong, who groaned for a long time as if he had been stabbed, eventually declared surrender.

-Alright……………

“You’re always pretty, so don’t worry, just take a picture and send it to me.”

-Only at times like this do you call me pretty………………

“What are you talking about? I did it once a day, right?”

-You asked me to send a selfie once a day previously.

Oh, this time I had nothing to say.

“Then should I ask you to do it twice a day?”

-That’s okay.

Chae Yoo-jeong, who responded in a rough voice as if he was already upset, hung up the phone without saying bye. This wasn’t the first time something like this had happened, so I waited quietly and soon a message arrived.

[Yoo-jeong: (photo)]

As soon as I saw the picture, I burst out laughing and pressed my hand to the corner of my mouth.

Chae Yoo-jeong’s face, slightly glaring at the camera, appeared on the cell phone screen. He gave off an awkward vibe, as if he was quite uncomfortable taking pictures alone.

‘It’s so cute, I’m dying, really……………….’

After seeing the tips of Chae Yoo-jeong’s ears and cheeks turning red, I couldn’t hold out any longer and lowered his head.

How can someone be this cute? My shoulders were trembling, and I was hitting the save button indiscriminately.

[Yoo Ji-han: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[Yoo Ji-han: It’s pretty^^]

[Yoo-jeong: Is it pretty?]

[Yoo Ji-han: the prettiest person in the world]

[Yoo Ji-han: The video is large so I will send it to you by email]

Since I’ve received it, I need to organize it in chronological order so it’s easy to see and send it to him. Yoo Chae seemed happy as well.

I smiled happily as I set the selfie that Yoo-jeong had sent me as my phone wallpaper.
