Gender Swap: The Introvert's Broadcast

Chapter 131

Adjusting one’s physical condition is never an easy task.

It’s common for students who’ve been preparing for the college entrance exam for 12 years to fail to manage their condition on the actual exam day, ruining everything.

But even considering that, I never thought Parsley would say something like this.

“...Are you in a lot of pain?”

This was the most important question. If Parsley couldn’t even do Leore, then the finals would be completely impossible, so it was a rather problematic situation.

I asked the question—

Hmm... To be honest, I’m not feeling that great...

The moment I heard Parsley’s words, I could instinctively tell. It was over.

Of course, even if Parsley said he was sick, the tournament could be forced to proceed. But...

‘That would be too cruel.’

Parsley wasn’t not playing because he didn’t want to. He wanted to play, but for health reasons, he couldn’t.

Just as I was thinking we’d have no choice but to forfeit, suddenly—

Wait!! I found the medicine! If I take this, I think I’ll feel better and can play...!

Parsley suddenly shouted. It seemed like the microphone had been turned off, but he must have been searching for some medicine nearby.

[????️ 전지좆능한크툴루: LOL] [????️ 전지좆능한크툴루: Suddenly looking for medicine] [If the first place prize is 10 million won, it can’t be helped..] [Not just any prize, but 10 million won for first place, I’ll accept that...] [강후민입니다: If you’re going to take medicine,] [강후민입니다: Tell him to take something strong] [강후민입니다: He should endure for now]

Even though Parsley was taking medicine, I still had my worries. He was struggling to even sit still and play, so I wondered if taking the medicine would really help him. While I was thinking this, suddenly—

I feel better after taking the medicine?? “Eh?”

I thought I might have misheard. He seemed to have a severe cold, but after just taking one medicine, his condition improved?

“Does it really get better just from taking one medicine?”

Yes!! This is the one my parents gave me, it’s supposed to pull from some kind of innate energy or something? That’s what I heard! “Eh?”

[????️ 전지좆능한크툴루: No way] [????️ 전지좆능한크툴루: Why would you use that?] [ᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏ] [Using innate energy for the Leore tournament?] [강후민입니다: This is really not easy..] [Innate energy, huh?] [Not just any innate energy, but... ᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏ] [대 천 지 기] [환희: How do your parents have that kind of medicine...] [It’s not the Great Celestial Master, it’s the Jade Emperor...] [Seriously, there’s nothing but idiots in the chat ᄏᄏ] [Really, this is nuts ᄏᄏ]

The chat was suddenly a total mess. It seemed like Parsley had just said something outlandish. I opened my mouth, still in disbelief.

“Does that mean the tournament can still go on?”

This was the most important thing. If the tournament was going to be impossible to continue, we’d better forfeit quickly.

I asked again—

Of course!!!

After taking the medicine, Parsley’s condition improved in just a short while, and he sounded excited as he spoke.

Yep!!You should be using your ultimate there, you know? Staying still is the real problem.Ah, seriously, you’re showing how much you don’t know Leore. Why use your ultimate there? If you just kite well while staying still, you can take everything and catch them.What’s your tier to be saying that?I think mine is higher than yours, for sure.No, Damam. Since you’re here, can you judge this for us? Is this right or wrong? I think using the ultimate here is definitely the right choice.You really don’t know Leore, do you? You shouldn’t use it there.Wow, I’m really losing my mind...!Ah, okay.I was duoing with Rimaldo, and he kept insisting that Yasuo shouldn’t use his ultimate, so...I told you, it’s definitely right to use it!!!Everyone, prepare for the finals.

The manager entered the Discord channel and spoke up. It was the final confirmation that the tournament was about to begin. Feeling nervous, I mentally reviewed the ban picks again.

I couldn’t afford to make a mistake.

And after a moment—

We’re starting.

The finals had started, but it wasn’t immediately time for the ban picks.

Since this was a tournament with a huge sponsorship amount, it required a warm-up before diving straight into the picks.

So, there was a pre-match interview. The question was simple.

"What do you think about the opposing team?"

“Hmm... To be honest, I think they’re a pretty strong team. But still, you know... Looking at our performance, there’s no way we can lose.”

This wasn’t superstition. It was an expression of confidence.

Our team had been performing much better recently, so I could proudly say that.

[????️ 전지좆능한크툴루: This is it ᄏᄏ] [????️ 전지좆능한크툴루: This is the Damam we know] [강후민입니다: The old Damam is back, for real] [강후민입니다: This is the Damam] [Not just anything, this is the Damam ᄋᄋ..] [대 다 마] [듀공 돌아왔구나! 듀공 돌아왔구나! 듀공 돌아왔구나! 듀공 돌아왔구나! 듀공 돌아왔구나! 듀공 돌아왔구나!] [환희: Please win]

This is what the viewers like too.

After speaking, not long after, the real finals began.

The atmosphere between both sides was charged, everyone was excited.

"Ah, this is going to be fun."

I felt nervous, but more than that, I was excited. There were a lot of top-tier streamers on both sides.

Thinking that, I proceeded with the ban picks.

“For the first set, let’s go with what we planned.”

The first set of a best-of series is usually the time when you get to know each other.

It’s the time when you figure out if the opponent’s hiding something or if they’re just a pushover.

With that thought, I proceeded with the ban picks, picking champions that felt good for our team’s playstyle and confident in the game.

[????️ 전지좆능한크툴루: These picks are really good, huh?] [강후민입니다: These picks are it ᄏᄏ] [강후민입니다: I really don’t think we’re going to lose ᄏᄏ] [If it was another team, maybe, but against the Damam team? We’re not losing ᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏ] [Let’s go, let’s go]

And so, the finals officially kicked off. The grand prize was a whopping 50 million won.
