Behind the mask, Tang-Eâs expression was colorful.
âHe never said anything like this...â
He hadnât heard about a spar with Hyeonu. Hyeonu clearly said that the spars were only with two humans.
Tang-E got up from his spot and nodded at Hyeonu. A detailed explanation was needed.
âThe instructor has something he wants to say. Everyone, please hold on for a moment. Isnât this where personal privacy needs to be protected?â Hyeonu responded to the signal sent by Tang-E. At the same time, he blocked the sound flowing to the viewers.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
-Manipulation is a crime.
-We have the right to hear the conversation.
Viewers wanted to hear the conversation between Hyeonu and Tang-E, but Hyeonu couldnât let them hear it. Anyone would suspect that the masked man was Tang-E when hearing the conversation between the two of them.
"Why are you calling me?â Hyeonu asked Tang-E in an annoyed tone.
âWhat is this? Why should I fight Master dude here?â Tang-E investigated Hyeonuâs arbitrary actions that werenât agreed upon in advance.
âIt is a pity if it ends like this. Iâll give you the rewards, so donât be upset.â
Hyeonu approached Tang-E and held his shoulder. He raised the hand that wasnât on the shoulder and extended two fingers.
âHow about adding two more days of meat payment?â
Tang-E was hesitant at Hyeonuâs proposal. Hyeonu originally promised a week, which was seven days. Add two days to that and it would be nine days. It wasnât short.
âThree more days or I wonât do it, Master dude.â However, Tang-E seemed dissatisfied and raised one more finger than Hyeonu.
âFine. I will offer unlimited meat for 10 days. Is this fine?â
Hyeonu nodded calmly. In any case, it wasnât a big deal to give a few more days of meat.
âHow much will it come to?â
It was nothing compared to the profit Hyeonu earned from streaming.
âIt is an amount that can only be carried in that...â
The subspace.
Hyeonu had this in mind. He had already thought about the idea that Tang-E had.
âI understand. Instead, take it easy on me.â
Tang-E was a bit excited about accepting meat for 10 days. Still, he couldnât completely like it. It was because the spar with Hyeonu would obviously be very difficult.
âVicious Master dude.â
Hyeonu was with Tang-E the entire time he was learning skills from John Blake. To be exact, in the process of practicing skills, he sparred with Tang-E for a breakthrough every time he reached a bottleneck.
âDonât worry too much. I will be really gentle today. There is a concept. A concept,â Hyeonu whispered as he held Tang-Eâs shoulder, which seemed to be drooping for some reason.
âConcept? What is it, Master dude.â
Tang-Eâs eyes shone. The feeling he got from the nuances was obviously good. He smelled that he could suffer less pain.
âTang-E, you and I will use the same weapon. The mask will also be the same. So we will also wear the same clothes. How about it?â
The concept that Hyeonu envisioned was a doppelganger. It wasnât just showcasing the same appearance as Tang-E during the spar. It was showcasing a similar combat style like a doppelganger. This was a surprise event that could be done because Tang-E had learned Hyeonuâs style to a certain extent.
âGood. Then do you want to cooperate with me?â
Tang-E didnât care about anything else. What did it matter what clothes he wore? However, how much would Hyeonu cooperate with him? It was an important issue.
âOf course. I wonât act as absurdly as you usually do. I will cooperate with you perfectly.â
âOkay, Master dude. Letâs prepare.â
Tang-E nodded. Hyeonu handed Tang-E a leather suit from his inventory and a helmet to cover his head. They werenât items with separate effects. They were just fashion items to wear when streaming. He couldnât wear the same clothes every time he streamed, so he bought these ones.
âThe instructor was a bit tired, so I massaged him with my hands. Of course, there is a bonus appearance fee,â Hyeonu explained his conversation with Tang-E to the viewers. Of course, it was nonsense that didnât have anything to do with the facts.
-Maybe the items were given as an appearance fee?
-Are the items unique rated?
-I donât think he gave just one or two. Is it unique?
-Alley Leader doesnât handle less than rares. They seem to be rare items.
The viewers werenât interested in Hyeonuâs words. They were interested in the clothes that Hyeonu handed to Tang-E.
âThey are nothing. I gave him different pay.â
Hyeonu really told the truth this time. He soon started to wear the same clothes as those given to Tang-E.
âThe spar later will be very interesting. You can look forward to it. Look forward to it.â
Hyeonu headed to the center of the arena, not to where Ray and Jamie Moore were waiting. He was going to start the spar straight away.
âIt is right to do it quickly before the impact disappears.â
Obviously, the viewers would be flustered the moment when Tang-E appeared. He had to start the spar before the shock disappeared, so he could attract the viewersâ eyes longer.
âTodayâs instructor! Please come out!â Hyeonu called out to Tang-E.
Tang-E appeared wearing the things that Hyeonu had handed him.
-????
-What is that?
-They are exactly the same?
-I think Iâve seen this before?
-Is Alley Leader hiding his identity?
-No no no, the instructor is hiding his identity. ã ã ã ã
The viewers saw Hyeonu and Tang-E and sent question marks in the chat room. They could all see Tang-E, who looked exactly the same as Hyeonu. Hyeonu stretched out his wooden sword toward the approaching Tang-E without seeing how the viewers reacted. Tang-E also aimed his wooden sword at Hyeonu once the distance to Hyeonu had narrowed to a certain extent.
-Is this a deception? If we miss it in the middle, we wonât know who is who.
-I admit it. I donât know who it is because I canât see the hair.
-Is this the famous doppelganger?
The viewers naturally focused their eyes on Hyeonu and Tang-E who made the same action with the same appearance.
âLetâs do it gorgeously, gorgeously.â
Hyeonu took light steps as he remembered the meaning of the spar. Unlike his light steps, Hyeonuâs body flew very quickly. Hyeonu reached Tang-E in an instant and swung his wooden sword. The sword fell from top to bottom with the momentum to cut anything it reached.
Tang-E easily avoided Hyeonuâs falling sword by moving sideways. Then he fought back with his wooden sword. Tang-Eâs wooden sword felt more like it was going to smash something than cut. He was obviously wielding a wooden sword, but it felt like it was a hammer to those watching.
-At least three ribs will break if hit.
-It will take eight weeks to recover.
-By the way, the previous one was Alley Leader, right?
-Yes, the instructor is the one countering now.
The spar had just begun, but several viewers had already started to confuse Hyeonu and Tang-E.
âHe is coming out strong from the beginning?â
Hyeonuâs eyes shone as he looked at Tang-Eâs counterattack. Tang-Eâs counterattack was sharp today.
âHe came out like this.â
Hyeonu changed his mind after seeing Tang-Eâs counterattack. It wasnât in the direction of something flashy. He instead showed the viewers something that was difficult to see. The change in his mindset was directly reflected in Hyeonuâs movements.
Tang-Eâs wooden sword swept horizontally through the air. Hyeonu stepped forward toward that location. It was a reckless action that went beyond boldness. However, Hyeonu had Mysterious Sky Steps. Before Tang-Eâs sword could reach Hyeonuâs body, Hyeonu was in a location where Tang-Eâs wooden sword couldnât reach.
The place where Hyeonu was standing was next to Tang-E. It was a position where he could not be cut by the other personâs extended wooden sword.
âYou still have a long way to go,â Hyeonu whispered in Tang-Eâs ear before hitting the back of Tang-Eâs head with the handle of his wooden sword. Tang-Eâs head made the sound of a walnut breaking. Tang-E couldnât stand the pain from his head and let go of his wooden sword. The wooden sword flew from Tang-Eâs hand at an amazing speed.
Ray and Jamie Moore were standing in the direction where the wooden sword flew. The two of them looked astonished, like they were hit by a thunderbolt out of the blue. Ray regained his mind first. It was because he thought he would be seriously injured if he was hit by this.
Ray pulled out his greatsword from his inventory and hit the flying wooden sword. The wooden sword was shattered and no traces of it could be found.
âUwaah! It hurts too much.â This wasnât the problem. Tang-E was hit in the back of the head by Hyeonu and screamed in pain.
-??? It is a familiar voice?
-Yes, I am seeing him for the first time. Why is his voice familiar?
-Doesnât this voice belong to Tang-E? Tang-E has a clear voice.
-Thatâs right, it was Tang-E. Why does that person have Tang-Eâs voice?
The viewers fell into confusion in an instant. The man they were seeing for the first time had the voice of their favorite, Tang-E. Then Tang-Eâs next words added a wedge in them. âI hate it, Master dude. Tang-E is going. Donât look for me. Bah.â
A man who called himself âTang-Eâ and Hyeonu âMaster dude.â Then he hid his traces.
-Is it really Tang-E?
-Why did Tang-E become a man?
-An adult Tang-E?
-Alley Leader, explain this situation quickly!
-Asking Alley Leader for the truth!!!
Viewers swarmed in like bees.
Hyeonu got the reaction he wanted, but there were problems in the process.
âIâm going to end the streaming here today. Then see you next time.â
Rather than explaining exactly what happened, Hyeonu chose to move away from the situation.
***
Hyeonu summoned Tang-E shortly after the livestream ended. Of course, he prepared a lot of food that Tang-E liked.
âIs it delicious?â Hyeonu carefully asked Tang-E, who was eating the meat skewers in front of him.
â...Bah!â Tang-Eâs response in return was very cold. He glanced at Hyeonu and just snorted.
âI shouldnât have hit his head.â
Hyeonu reflected on his spar with Tang-E. It seemed he was a bit too excited in that situation.
âI only thought of making a great video. I was blind.â
âI prepared meat separately. Go back and share it with your parents. Understood?â
Hyeonu pushed a small box that was hidden behind his back to Tang-E. Inside the box was a pile of meat.
âJust donât do it next time, Master dude.â Tang-E grabbed the box and shook his head at Hyeonu.
âI understand. I wonât do it again,â Hyeonu answered with a bitter smile.
âI understand. Then Iâll let it go this time.â Tang-E smiled slightly and tore at the meat on the skewer.
