Chapter 109
It all started because of my plans for streaming. Climbing the ranks had been an impulsive decision, but starting a stream had been a long-held dream of mine.
Until now, the connection module I used at home wasn’t compatible with the streaming setup. I had searched for alternatives, but the conclusion was always the same: my hardware simply couldn’t support it. However, Sigma’s equipment was top-of-the-line and fully compatible with the streaming modules I needed.
Once I found out it was possible, and now that I had people who could help me, there was no reason not to give it a shot.

[‘Ga-wol’ is currently streaming in private mode.]
[Note: Streaming test mode is on.]
Elderin was a popular streamer in her own right.
Whether it was gaming or just chatting with her viewers, she excelled at everything. With her good looks and engaging personality, her fanbase was as solid as concrete. Thanks to this, anything she streamed was guaranteed a minimum level of success.
Sansa, on the other hand, was known for gaming from afternoon until dawn and keeping her stream on almost 24/7, even when she wasn’t playing. Most streamers had heard of her nickname at least once. Honestly, I think she even watched more streams than I did.
‘That’s quite an impressive feat... no, wait, that’s not the point here.’
Sansa, real name Kim Shin-ah, was well-known among freelance designers. She had originally worked in advertising but switched to freelancing as soon as her skills reached a certain level. She was so good that she could pick and choose her projects.
As if to prove her reputation, Sansa handed me her tablet.
“The theme should have an assassin-like vibe, so I made a few concepts. Want to take a look?”
“You already finished them?”
“Yep! I wanted to put some real effort into this.”
The first thing she showed me was a waiting screen for the stream.
I had no idea when the photo had been taken. It was an image of a snow-covered coniferous forest, with me—Ga-wol—hiding behind a tree trunk. Judging by the scars on my body, it seemed like I was in the middle of a fight. Was this from the semi-finals?
I must’ve seen Ga-wol countless times by now, but seeing it deliberately stylized like this made it feel unfamiliar.
In the image, my red eyes peered out cautiously, scanning the surroundings. The dagger was hidden near my chest, and a gust of wind blew through, making my hair flutter slightly.
I couldn’t help but be delighted. That moment in the image had probably passed by in the blink of an eye. Unless someone had been watching my matches intently, they wouldn’t have even noticed it.
Now that I thought about it, Sansa was the first person to ever call herself my fan. Knowing how sincere she was about it made me smile.
Suddenly, her finger poked my cheek.
“You weren’t listening, were you?”
“Oh, uh... sorry. I liked it too much. What were you saying?”
“I asked if there was anything you wanted to change or if anything looked weird. If you’re happy with it, I’ll just polish it up and send it to you by tomorrow.”
“No, it’s perfect. Thank you.”
All I could do was grin and nod. After all, feedback only works when you actually know what you’re talking about.
When it came to design, art, or video editing, I was clueless. I could tell if something looked pretty or impressive, but that was it. I didn’t know why it looked good or why it felt so special compared to other things.
“Ah, hello, woof! Long time no... ow.”
I bit my tongue. It hurt.

Hello, everyone. Long time no see.
You’ve probably seen me on my sister’s streams from time to time. A lot of people have been asking why I never stream my own gameplay. Well, I had my reasons, but now I think I can finally start.
This will be the first time I’ll be showing my personal gameplay. I’ll be doing rank games and aiming to reach first place, and I plan to stream regularly until I achieve that. I’ll also be sharing some Assassin tips and tricks.
Please drop by and watch!

With all the trouble they’ve caused, do you really think the stream is going to go well?
They acted like they’d never stream, but now that they’re running out of money, they’re crawling back? Nothing is more annoying than this.
They’ll probably cry after a few games, complaining about all the snipers. Just turn on your camera and shake your ass instead. We all know you’ll quit once the hype dies down.
I can see it already.

Truth.Ga-wol: Snipers welcome.
└ For real? I’m coming for you.
└ Can you even handle that tier?

They seem to be matching with a lot of streamers. And isn’t that rifle from the Giga team?
Looks like they’re already getting sniped left and right. If they keep climbing, even pros are going to show up.

They said they welcome snipers, lol.
