【Mode Selection】
One-Handed Mode
Full Body Mode
Lee So-hye immediately began explaining the modes.
“One-Handed Mode is for practicing using the whip with one hand. Full Body Mode allows you to use your whole body, but that's impossible for beginners!”
[▶ 1. One-Handed Mode]
[The Whip Simulator is starting.]
Yeah, beginners should definitely go with One-Handed Mode.
Lee So-hye is excited haha.
Looks like she's planning to get revenge for the humiliation from the tournament today.
[Mission Task - 01]
[Type - Target Knockdown]
[Target - A2]
The shelves are laid out horizontally in 1 2 3,
vertically in A, totaling 3 slots.
The mission is to knock down the target at A2, right in the center.
This would be an easy task if done barehanded,
but now with only the arm holding the whip moving,
it became quite a tricky challenge.
“If more people join, you can see their whip trails. Watch my whip carefully and follow... oh, your impatience is showing.”
Whizz!
Thwack!
[Mission Task - 01 Completed]
Haha, what?
Yeah, you follow along, right?
Instructor, can you do this? (Taunt)
With one whip strike, Hae Eung-eung knocked down the target, wearing a relaxed expression as she flicked her finger.
Lee So-hye, who could read the whip's movements without seeing her finger, felt the muscles in her forehead tighten with frustration.
Whoosh!
Boom!!@@@@
[Mission Task - 01 Completed]
Lee So-hye exploded the target at the end of her whip, and she turned to Hae Eung-eung with a confident look.
“Do you think this is still Banyogok? It’s not about physical strength or anything, it’s all about whip skills here. Do you dare taunt me?”
Whoa.
The manager's whip sound is no joke.
Is the sound even more intense than the Silent Swordmaster’s?
Seems like both the S-tier swordsman and S-tier manager have their talents.
Yeah, that was just the first task.
[Mission Task - 02]
[Type - Target Knockdown]
[Target - B3]
The shelves extend horizontally in 1 2 3,
vertically in A B, a total of 6 slots.
Both Hae Eung-eung and the viewers were slowly realizing the game mechanics.
How many slots does this extend to?
No clue.
Looks like the number of slots increases as we go.
[Mission Task - 02 Completed]
[Mission Task - 03 Completed]
[Mission Task - 04 Completed]
Although she came to learn the whip, Hae Eung-eung was already familiar with the basics of whip handling. She quickly progressed through the simpler tasks.
[Mission Task - 08]
For Task 8, the shelf arrangement was:
Horizontal: 1 2 3 4 5 6
Vertical: A B C D E F
A total of 36 slots.
The targets were smaller as the shelves' size shrank,
and the difficulty of hitting them increased.
But Hae Eung-eung still managed without breaking a sweat.
This is really close!
She’s hitting it perfectly.
Kind of feels like a western? The shooting kind? That kind of vibe.
So, what happens if you miss?
No clue.
There’s no way anyone’s actually played this crap game.
I just bought it, and it’s a scam! It looked easy, but once the shelves collapse and all the targets fall over, everything’s a mess.
Hahaha!
The difference between a regular person and a physical streamer.
This is the kind of game that’s only fun to watch others play, haha.
After reading the chat, Hae Eung-eung realized that there were quite a few items on the shelves.
A glass jar filled with origami cranes.
Candies and cookies that would be fatal with the slightest touch.
Goldfish swimming in an aquarium.
She glanced between the shelves and the whip with a suspicious look.
‘Are these hostages?’
If she missed, the other items would smash and explode, and the goldfish, displaced by the chaos, would flop around on the floor.
That would be a regrettable incident for Hae Eung-eung as well.
‘Fish need to be cherished, just like spiders.’
The inner organs of the Sunhwa-ri flower, a century-old remedy for healing.
This was the essence of a carp that had lived for a thousand years.
Though goldfish and carps are different,
such fish would surely have an essence of their own after living a thousand years.
[Mission Task - 09]
Though grateful for the acknowledgment,
Lee So-hye felt conflicted, as the Silent Swordmaster was the one who’d stolen the attention of her beloved Hanbokman.
Still, she held onto a sadistic expectation, her chest fluttering with excitement.
She was about to suggest giving up when,
Whoosh!
Bang!
The sound changed.
Huh?
What is it?
Is the whip speeding up?
The whip’s power increased,
and the speed at which it flew also drastically improved.
Bang! Bang!
Crash!
The miniature swordsman, startled by the fierce whip, took a few steps back,
showing clear signs of struggling to endure,
but against the fierce attacks of the Silent Swordmaster, it wasn’t enough.
Cling!
Finally, the sword flew out of the miniature's hands,
and though it desperately waved its arms, signaling to stop,
Hae Eung-eung, recalling the previous taunt,
mercilessly whipped the miniature again.
[Special Task Completed]
[Mission Task - 10 Completed]
Noooooo!
The little one died, nooo!
You killed it, you murderer!
‘To learn the Iryu Martial Arts, this is a necessary step.’
Hae Eung-eung, proudly raising her head, as if to say "Do you still underestimate me?"
Lee So-hye chuckled before grabbing her whip.
“That was surprising. I see you’ve got the basics down. You’ve definitely surpassed the beginner level.”
[Is it okay to brag? That miniature was actually pretty tough.]
As Hae Eung-eung raised the miniature that had given her trouble,
she expected Lee So-hye to struggle.
“It’s ridiculous. You wouldn’t have even shown up as a one-day instructor if you were lacking in confidence.”
Lee So-hye didn’t aim the whip directly at the miniature swordsman.
Instead, she hooked the whip onto a nail on the shelf,
spun it 360 degrees counterclockwise,
and skillfully snatched the sword, tossing it far away.
“!!”
In a panic, the miniature swordsman reached desperately for the falling sword,
but it missed and tumbled off the shelf with a crash,
completing the task that took Hae Eung-eung a minute in just 3 seconds.
“You’re still far from beating me with the whip.”
Ohhhhhhh
The woman who beat the Silent Swordmaster!
Mom, I want to be an S-tier manager when I grow up!
Why is she so good?
Wow, one-take clear.
So what happens to the Silent Swordmaster now, haha?
The manager plays better than most streamers.
Silent Swordmaster isn’t ordinary either, even the manager’s not simple.
There was a simple way to defeat the miniature.
Until now, Hae Eung-eung had been swinging the whip in a straightforward manner.
But Lee So-hye opened up a whole new world for her.
Making Lee So-hye her one-day instructor was the right choice.
[You’re better with the whip than me.]
“Hmph. Just because you complimented me doesn’t mean I’ll teach you more. I might give you a small tip, though.”
Lee So-hye pressed the [Move to Next Theme] button.
“Actually, to truly learn the whip, you need to hit moving targets too.”
“!!”
“Do well. Timing is everything for hitting the target. This is where the real challenge begins.”
[Mission Task - 11]
[Type - Target Knockdown]
[Target - D5]
The shelf expands to 49 slots,
and behind the square shelf,
what was once thought to be a wall is revealed to be a rotating roulette,
as both the shelf and the roulette start spinning together.
The unexpected new theme of the mission stunned the Silent Swordmaster,
who stood there with the whip in hand, gazing at the target,
when suddenly the game ended.
[▶ Ending the game.]
[▶ Silent Swordmaster has ended the broadcast.]
What the hell.
Hahaha.
Is this real?
The rotating shelves were too much, haha.
Come back, you coward!
Trash game runner (away) haha.
Without a second glance, she fled.
