Human Resources Department, 3rd Division head office of the Divergent Guild.

Pfft, hahaha! So you asked for his number,and he said what? He doesnt know his own number?

Division head Lee Hayeon burst into laughter as she watched the video Lim Gayeong had brought.

I mean, I dont look as beautiful as Miss and I look kinda masculine. So, its understandable. Lim Gayeong said with a stern face.

With her short hair, tall stature, and well-defined muscles, she did give off a somewhat boyish vibe, But that was a separate issue from looking masculine.

Gosh She really has no idea how popular she is in the guild.

Hayeon smirked and playfully clapped her hands for emphasis.

Gayeong, dont say things like that elsewhere or youll get in trouble.

Well, I know that very well. Even in high school, only girls liked me.

You went to an all-girls school.

Well, thats true, but

Smack!

Ha-yeon clapped her hands.

Alright, enough. That guy is just weird. Lets wrap up this issue.

You were the one who was laughing at me, Miss.

What?

Never mind.

Tap, tap.

As Hayeon was sporting a smile at the corner of her mouth, she fervently typed on her keyboard.

Anyway, Seong Jihan, this person. After looking at the data you brought, I thought we definitely need to recruit them.

Even if hes a support class?

Yes. With this level of skill, we should have him on board first. Before other guilds take an interest. And, you know what? I now remember who this person is.

You know him?

Hayeon gestured to Gayeong and pointed at the monitor.

Look at this.

This is

What entered Gayeongs eyes was a video channel.

-Battlenet Match Prediction Specialist, Mister Seongs Channel

You still watch these kinds of broadcasts, Miss.

Gayeong looked at Hayeon with a cold gaze.

Even though she came from a wealthy family, why was she subscribed to such a gambling-oriented channel?

Hayeon quickly clapped her hands.

This person is quite accurate. Even though the broadcasts are sporadic, if they did it properly, they couldve become famous in the match prediction community.

The match prediction community, you say. Sounds like an illegal betting site.

No, This isnt about betting. Battlenet match prediction involves collecting data and making judgments Well, its a sophisticated form of analysis, anyway!

Sigh Alright then. What does this gambler have to do with Seong Jihan?

Well, look at this, here!

She quickly moved the mouse.

Then the playlist for the channel Seong scrolled down.

In the 7th video here, this persons face appeared briefly. I thought it looked cleaner than I expected and just moved on, but it turns out he looks similar to Seong Jihan.

Hold on a second, Miss.

Gayeong urgently stopped Ha-yeon from scrolling the mouse wheel down.

Huh? Why?

Look at the title of the live broadcast right at the top!

Uh, why would this person suddenly do a broadcast? Its been a while Huh?

Hayeon initially raised her head absentmindedly, then widened her eyes.

The title of the live video.

It contained content she could never have imagined.

Daughter and Brother-in-law of the Sword King addressing the Current Situation and Sharing the Conversation with the Sword King.

Sword Kings brother-in-law?

* * *

Yoon Sejins penthouse living room.

Seong Jihan, dressed in black, was setting up the camera.

Phew, it was tough to persuade her.

Donating the building in Gangnam that her father had left her. It wasnt an easy decision.

Uncle You are still not sober, huh?

It was only natural for Yoon Seah to say that.

In this situation, where even swearing would be forgivable, her mild response felt quite generous.

I couldnt reveal that I came from the future, but

He narrated the worst-case scenarios that would unfold one by one.

Isnt that a bit exaggerated?

Yoon Seah half-asked, to which Seong Jihan countered with arguments like not being able to pay the inheritance tax, him having had a precognitive dream, and how things would get serious if he held onto it.

After all the talking and persuading, he finally got his way.

Fine, I got it. Well, Uncle, youre my only family now. Ill trust you.

Really?

Yes. Ugh. It would have been better if you asked them to just take half of the building. Donating to the country, seriously?

While grumbling, Yoon Seah delegated full authority to Seong Jihan.

Thus, Seong Jihan was able to execute his plan after returning to the past.

Oh, its not showing up on my phone. Why isnt it working?

Setting up the camera seemed unfamiliar to him.

He scratched his head while looking at his phone screen and the camera.

This camera. It worked fine on the Battle Tube last time

BattleTube.

An in-house streaming system and video platform exclusive to Battlenet.

Equipped with hyper-technology that allowed videos to play even without an internet connection, BattleTube boasted unrivaled market dominance, overshadowing all other video platforms on Earth.

And on the other side of the camera.

Yoon Seah, dressed in black like Seong Jihan, stood with her arms crossed, watching her uncles appearance as if it were something unbelievable.

Since when did Uncle become such a good actor?

The BattleTube window on Yoon Seahs smartphone.

The stream was clearly visible, with people complaining about how Seong Ji-hans face wasnt showing.

Whats this guy doing?

Its so frustrating.

Is this just clickbait?

But the house does look like the Sword Kings place.

Yeah, I saw it on Sword Kings special show.

And the chat kept scrolling.

People were berating Seong Jihan, who was struggling visibly.

If only it werent for that annoying title, he would have gone live immediately.

Daughter and brother-in-law of the Sword King addressing the Current Situation and Sharing the Conversation with the Sword King.

The title was too long at first glance.

But the mention of the Sword Kings daughter and brother-in-law had people who were previously angered by the Sword Kings interview entering the stream one by one.

Wait It really looks like the Sword Kings living room, doesnt it?

I thought it was just clickbait, but it isnt, is it?

As word spread rapidly among the people, viewers began to gather.

[Currently 10,000 viewers have gathered.]

[Standard Achievement, Gather Viewers (1) has been cleared.]

[Obtained 1,000 Achievement Points as a reward.]

And as Seong Jihan, who was putting on a convincing act, continued, an achievement point notification popped up before his eyes.

Just as I thought.

BattleTube was also part of Battle Net. Here, too, one could earn achievement points. Viewership numbers, subscriber counts, likes, dislikes, total views of a video, and more.The possibilities for earning achievement points on BattleTube were boundless.

Its going to be hard to break the dislike achievement. Ill have to receive a lot this time.

While a video with too many dislikes would result in losses when converted to GP on Battle Tube, Seong Jihan didnt care much. Achievement points were more important than GP.

Especially now, when he could only achieve a Bronze rank at best, he needed to break as many achievements as possible through major issues.

After all, my face is going to be on sale anyway.

Even without stating his position, it would spread widely enough within a week for the whole nation to know. Its better to earn some achievements while getting favorable media coverage.

And two hours had passed since Seong Jihan began to complain.

[Currently 30,000 viewers have gathered.]

[Standard Achievement, Recruit Viewers (2) has been cleared.]

[Obtained 3,000 Achievement Points as a reward.]

[Gained 10,000 dislikes.]

[Standard Achievement, Even if the World Hates You (1) has been cleared.]

[Obtained 1,000 Achievement Points as a reward.]

He had managed to achieve both the simultaneous viewers achievement and the disliked achievement.

People had come to see it because he had revealed his stance, but after watching him complain for two hours about the screen not showing, they couldnt help but hit the dislike button.

If the content hadnt been related to Sword King, 99% of the viewers would have left by now.

30,000 people? They should hit the dislike button a bit more.

On the other hand, Seong Ji-han was regretful that he hadnt achieved the dislike achievement (2).

However, it was time to stop the broadcast now.

As he tapped his smartphone repeatedly, the screen finally appeared properly.

Oh Its on! Its on!

Seong Jihan rejoiced as if he was about to jump.

Then, with wide eyes, he continued to watch the screen.

What Whats this? Why are there so many people?

A genuinely surprised expression.

Yoon Seah, watching from behind the camera, couldnt help but be impressed by her uncles remarkable acting.

His face is good, but hes even better at acting

In line with this, the chat exploded with cursing messages.

Ha, that guys finally going to start broadcasting.

Bruh, I waited 18 18 minutes.

If it werent for the Sword King-related content, I wouldve reported and left.

Hurry up!.

Be careful with your words, calling someone a traitor. The Sword King used a fake to deceive Japan.

Yes, the next pro-Japanese collaborator~

Ha, haha. Youve waited a long time, havent you? Im really sorry.

Seong Jihan bowed his head deeply towards the camera.With a frustrated expression, he sat down at the desk and chair he had set up beforehand.

Now then, Sword Kings brother-in-law, me, Seong Jihan, and

*Swoosh, swoosh.*

At Seong Jihans gesture, Yoon Seah walked towards him with a somber expression. Even she, who had been admiring her uncles expression management, was truly impressed by his acting skills as he began performing.

Sword Kings daughter. I will explain Yoon Seahs perspective.

* * *

In this streaming video that held the attention of the masses, as Seong Jihan introduced himself, multiple messages appeared in the chat.

Seong Jihan?

Top-ranked in Gangnam 1 tutorial!

While guild officials who surveyed even the Bronze League were impressed by Seong Jihan, ordinary people had a different perspective.

Top-ranked in the tutorial? So what? Isnt he just in the Bronze League? At least he should be in Gold.

No matter how much he was from Gangnam 1, Bronze was still Bronze. This was the perception of regular individuals, which differed from that of scouts and hardcore fans who would look into players even below this level.

Right. Whats important now isnt the likes of Bronze.

Contrary to the excitement of the scouts, regular viewers were not at all curious about Seong Jihan achieving first place.

What they were curious about was information regarding the Sword King. The pride of South Korea, ranked third in the world. Did Sword King Yoon Sejin really abandon his own country and go to Japan? That was what mattered.

First I will tell you the content of the conversation between my brother-in-law and my niece.

Seong Jihan looked at Yoon Seah with a serious expression.

In response, Yoon Seah, who had been chewing her lips, carefully placed her phone on the desk.

From there, the recorded conversation between Yoon Sejin and Yoon Seah was played without any editing.

[Seah.]

Dad!? Is it really you, Dad? Whats with the interview earlier? Why are you going to Japan without telling me anything?!

Im sorry. Dad fell in love with someone.

What? Love?

Heh. Love?

Wow, crazy

-Heh. Love?

-Wow, I waited 18 minutes for this This is insane

-Is that really the Sword Kings voice?

-Yes, I can vouch that Shes a part of the Sword King family.

The Sword King went to Japan because he fell in love?

To viewers, the content of the conversation was so absurd that they couldnt stop expressing their astonishment and criticizing the Sword King.

Its a joke, right? Love?

Japanese women are more beautiful than anyone in the world.

Yoon Se-jins voice was brighter than ever. In contrast, Yoon Seahs voice was thoroughly somber.

Ah, Dad Please No, right?

Well, okay. You can Remarry! Its okay to remarry. Mom Yeah. Became a stone statue. S-since shes dead you must be lonely too. Okay. The new mom is a Japanese woman? Thats fine

Gulp.

Perhaps it was an attempt to hold back her emotions.In the recorded voice, Yoon Seah briefly swallowed her saliva. Her voice grew even more melancholic.

Whatever you want, Im fine with that. Even if you want to remarryIll agree. But But We dont need to go to Japan, right?

Thats the condition for her to accept my proposal.

What, what!?

And.

Yoon Sejin paused for a moment.

As if resolved, he continued in a resolute voice.

Theres another condition she has. She wants me to leave my daughter in Korea.

Me?

Im sorry. I wont ask you to understand me

So Are you going to abandon me, Dad?

I will leave you Gangnams Sword Palace. I will pass it on to you. You wont have any financial difficulties. Once again, Im sorry, Seah.

Dad! Dad! Dad

Thud.

With that, the call ended, and the recorded conversation came to an end.
