I Regressed but the World Didn’t Fall Apart

Hmm… That place? (3) – [It Kills Two]

020.

Jian’s prediction was spot on.

[Current viewers: 173]

Just one day had passed since the last broadcast.

But within that one day, the speed of viewer increase was unbelievably drastic.

It had been only about 10 seconds since the broadcast started.

Normally, at this point, the viewers for her broadcast would have been around 10 people at best.

So, originally, along with the opening screen, viewers had waited for Jian to reveal herself after some time.

“Chu-ha!”

“Hello, everyone. Nice to see you again.”

Today, without any delay, Jian greeted the viewers and started the broadcast.

-Why 1 minute late? Why 1 minute late?

-Chuha!

-Open the door!!

This time, viewers didn’t need to wait.

The chatbox was already lively.

Glancing at the viewers’ reactions, Jian lightly nudged Idohyuk and pointed to the bottom right.

-“Bro, are you still on that one-hit kill streak?”

-“Is he the axe murderer?”

-“Is the Sensei here?”

-“What are you doing! Stop the game!”

-“Hold your breath until you get a kill!”

Jian gestured for Idohyuk to greet the welcoming viewers.

Understanding the gesture, Idohyuk quickly responded.

“Uh… Good evening. Have you all had your dinner?”

-hahahahaha

-Real talk, his reactions are just like a regular person’s

-Info) He is indeed a regular person

-He’s about to debut on a show

-Yeah, that’s why he’s already been asked twice if he’s the axe murderer

-That’s right

“What? The axe murderer?”

“Yes! That’s my brother!”

Itohyuk briefly skimmed through the reactions sent by Jianne on KakaoTalk, but Jianne had thoroughly scanned through the concept posts of [It Kills Too Minor Gallery] last night.

Furthermore, she had read through all the posts related to Itohyuk that were posted on her Tworke board.

Checking for breadcrumbs during the broadcast downtime was a basic skill as a professional broadcaster.

As such, she was well aware that the Ax Murderer was referring to her brother.

“The response towards my brother is indeed huge.”

In fact, she was the one who wished for Itohyuk’s broadcasting debut and success more than anyone else.

Above all, her desire for her dear brother Itohyuk to succeed was the strongest.

She also thought that to some extent, her brother’s success would also benefit her.

There might be interest arising from the fact that both siblings are broadcasters, and if her brother succeeds, she would somehow reap the rewards as well.

For now, it was ‘Jianchu’s brother Itohyuk,’ but soon it would be ‘Itohyuk’s sister Jianchu.’

“Now! So, today’s content is-“

-?

-Oh, what is it?

-Did you prepare anything?

-Dududugu

-Will there be something?

“Yes. I cleared It Kills Too that I couldn’t finish last time!”

-Nice

-Oh

-Oh, you prepared something separately?

-Wow! You’re playing It Kills Too!

Jianne waved her hand to start It Kills Too.

**

The screen filled with the bodies of two Kias.

As they entered the gameplay, the background music changed to the eerie BGM unique to It Kills Too.

-For real, two of them?

-What’s the difficulty level?

-hahahaha, what I saw in the teaser was real

-Will you clear it all today?

Certainly, some might have come in through Black Oak’s broadcast yesterday, but more people would have come after seeing the breadcrumbs of It Kills Too Minor Gallery.

As they launched the game, the chat box became lively.

“Definitely… the specs are weak.”

Moving around, adapting to It Kills Too, thoughts arose.

Having played Alpha until a while ago, the sense of alienation felt even stronger.

“I need to train harder.”

Currently, Itohyuk’s physical stats, if categorized into Full Dive style stats, were at 134.

This level could be considered top-tier compared to most athletes.

However, these stats did not satisfy Itohyuk’s standards.

Though becoming a superhuman like in the past was impossible, shouldn’t he raise his physical stats to the mid-140s, which could be considered the limit of human potential?

With that thought in mind, Itohyuk decided that he needed to plan additional training starting tomorrow.

With such thoughts in mind, Ido Hyuk gripped the pair of axes.

– Kk.

– Finally going live with this.

– Seriously, only with an axe?

– The force is real.

– Dgdg.

Both the viewers who watched yesterday’s broadcast and those who came today upon hearing the rumors were filled with anticipation to see Ido Hyuk’s play.

“Well then…”

Shall we show them what people want to see first?

Swish—!!

Ido Hyuk sent one of the axes flying into the darkness.

-?

-What’s that?

-Starting performance?

With the sudden axe throw, several question marks popped up in the chat window.

But that was only for a brief moment.

Thud—!

Immediately followed by the sound of impact.

Kii, kiiik!

Kii-eek!

And screams.

Creatures with red eyes appeared in droves from where Ido Hyuk had thrown the axe.

-?

-Wow.

-Holy sh*t?

-Uninvited?

-How do you know?

-???

-No, more importantly, how do you aim?

A mix of curiosity and admiration in the chat reactions.

“I’ll start by taking care of these small fries.”

Ido Hyuk swiftly finished his sentence after glancing at them.

“Gasp! What!?”

Jian also exclaimed in surprise.

‘I heard there are surprise battles like this sometimes during loading…’

One of the elements of [It Kills Two].

Even if you thoroughly scout the surroundings before the save, after loading, enemies can randomly appear around the player.

She had intended to explain this to her brother before loading to prepare him, but she forgot due to typing the opening message.

Upon seeing the real creatures now, the thought finally struck her.

‘How does my brother handle this so calmly?’

There was no time to ask such questions.

Lee Dohyuk was already charging towards the enemy line.

The difficulty level was so catastrophic that even two Kias appeared.

Naturally, the creatures that appeared were not ordinary.

Special creatures numbering up to ten.

– Why are they here lol

These creatures were quite familiar to viewers who had found the current broadcast.

Special creatures that occasionally appeared when choosing a difficulty level above average.

The reason they were classified as ‘special’ creatures was simple.

Too powerful to be called minions, yet not strong enough to be considered bosses.

As such, it was common for only 2-3 of them to spawn together.

– Why are there 10 of them lololol

– What the?

Viewers who had heard rumors from the “Eat Kills Two Miner Gallery” were in an uproar.

They were true veterans, active enough in the game’s community to be considered “Eat Miner Gallery” enthusiasts.

From their perspective, “Eat Kills Two” was a game they had already exhausted.

However, in this broadcast, even for them, scenes they had never seen before were popping up.

– WTF, is this the Eat Kills Two I know?

– When did they release the insanely difficult mode?

– lol this is insane

– I saw two dead Kias and thought it couldn’t get worse, how much did this guy crank up the variable difficulty?

– Didn’t even land a single hit and managed to defeat the boss?

Just like Black Oak had said to the veterans, the “Eat Miner Gallery” enthusiasts were naturally inferring the reason behind the game’s sudden unreasonable difficulty spike.

– True

– How do you know?

– Seriously lol didn’t land a hit and defeated it

-(Info) The clip from Eat Miner Gallery posted yesterday is just the tip of the iceberg

Explanations followed from those who had watched the broadcast in full yesterday.

Unbelievable chats.

But still, it was hard not to believe.

Swish!

With evidence suddenly presented.

Lee Dohyuk, who had effortlessly retrieved the thrown axe and was now wielding dual axes in both hands.

“Wow…”

Unknowingly, a gasp escaped Ji An’s lips at that moment.

Swish!

Idohyuk’s body spins.

Kkiyeeek-!

With the screams of special creatures, their blood spurted like a fountain.

But it didn’t end there.

Vroom-

Idohyuk continued to spin his body.

Seogeok! Seogeo-eok!

One spin, two ax strikes.

And with each strike, a head rolled.

Every time Idohyuk’s body rotated, the heads of the special creatures flew into the air.

“Huh, huh…?”

Jian, momentarily stunned by what she saw, opened her mouth.

It seemed familiar.

A memory hidden in her mind suddenly resurfaced.

A very, very old memory.

It must have been when Jian was around six years old.

Her brother, who was seven years older than her and probably an elementary school student at the time, used to play a game that made his eyes red.

“Waah, waah! Kirby! I have to be Kirby!”

He was the kind of brother who would usually give in to her pleas when she pretended to cry, but not that time.

“Jian, hold on. Let me finish this. Do you see this horned lady with multiple horns? She’s a really bad woman, so I have to catch only her…”

He would say, refusing to give up the computer.

The game had such a dark background that Jian didn’t like to watch at the time.

But if there was one memory that stood out vividly from that time, it was of her brother boasting about his character beside her, and the character he cherished so much.

With a weapon in each hand, spinning his body at an incredible speed, her brother was like a savage hero, capturing monsters.

“It felt just like that… What did my brother call that? Wheel… something.”

And now, Idohyuk, who resembled that figure so much, was in front of Jian.

Thinking about this, Jian looked at the chat window.

The chat was in chaos too.

-?

-Lolololol

-No way lol

-Lololololololol

-??????

Filled with laughter and question marks, the chat window scrolled up at an unreadable speed.

-Why are you playing Diablo alone when I told you to play It Kills Two?

– What’s up, Wheel Baba?

– hahahahaha.

– Sooyongdoli Baba, what’s up?

– Is it the cheer that’s echoing in the air from time to time?

– hahahaha, seems like it.

From Noble mtl dot com

It was the time when Ido Hyuk and Jianne were deeply engrossed in playing “It Kills Two.”

A video was uploaded on Black Oak’s YouTube channel boasting 430,000 subscribers.

[“Unprecedented Physical Genius Monster, Successful in Bottom Fishing”]

– Titled the video.

Not only was the title intriguing, but the thumbnail featured a guy holding a pair of axes, not Black Oak, sitting there casually.

– Who’s this loser?

– Starting a new game?

– Why’s this Physical Genius Monster gaining aggro again?

The aggro was so strong that comments were already flooding in before watching the video.

– Some folks are seeing this for the first time today, hahahaha.

– Missing out on yesterday’s broadcast, hahahaha.

– Seriously wasted life.

And then, comments from the few viewers who watched the broadcast yesterday.

Although called “Mangtube,” that was from Black Oak’s perspective.

Even though they had watched the live broadcast, there were core fans who revisited it on YouTube, and many who didn’t catch the live show but always kept up with YouTube.

Even if it’s just a few tens of thousands.

They clicked on Black Oak’s latest video as if possessed.
