I Regressed but the World Didn’t Fall Apart

Chapter 77

Back to the World Without Ruin -77-

077.

Cock-a-doodle-doo!

A sound akin to a scream of a rooster.

“I’m looking forward to this.”

Idohyeok held up the guidebook and projected it on the screen.

[Cock-a-doodle-doo. Dislikes moving around, doesn’t wander much.]

A brief description in the guidebook since it wasn’t captured.

Idohyeok, holding onto Cock-a-doodle-doo’s comb, said, “As you can see, even the guidebook recommends eating it.”

– Huh?

– Wtf hahahahaha where’s the explanation

– Today’s broadcast is so hilarious hahahahaha

– hahahahaha a killer of innocence

Idohyeok’s broadcast.

In the chat, ‘ㅋㅋㅋ’ filled with laughter kept popping up.

It was all because of Idohyeok’s monster play.

“If it doesn’t wander much, it’s only natural it’ll gain weight. Look how chubby it is. Normally, the less muscle and more fat a chicken has, the tastier it is. They’re blatantly saying to eat it, right?”

– hahahaha we didn’t know about this

– That’s true

– Why does this sound convincing?

– When you listen, it’s really funny

The reason Idohyeok specifically held onto Cock-a-doodle-doo’s comb was similar.

There was no other part to grab except the fluffy comb.

It was a round shape that could roll if left like that.

Cock-a-doodle-doo’s scream echoed loudly.

—Swoosh! Swoosh!

The axe was swung.

Yet, thankfully, it didn’t look gruesome at all.

Considering the rating system, when the cockatrice was shot, it transformed into light particles with a slightly ridiculous appearance.

And there appeared the meat of the cockatrice.

Lee Dohyuk picked up the cockatrice meat and put it into his inventory.

-hahahaha, but looking at it, I feel like they intended for Dohyuk to play like a pro and also participate in game development, right?

-For real, they didn’t make the meat appear only when you directly hunt for it for no reason.

-Info) According to the game description directly written by the developers, Monster’s genre includes open-world, collection-based adventure, construction management, sandbox, ‘hunting’, and collection, etc.

-That hunting was seriously hunting, right? hahahaha

[Super Ultra God-tier New Game “Monster Buddies” Playthrough (Homework) / Lee Dohyuk / 31,723 viewers]

The viewer count increased by about 5,000 compared to when the advertisement broadcast first started.

The fact that the viewer count was reversing like this from the advertisement broadcast meant that the current broadcast was entertaining enough.

The chat responses were also very positive.

While other streamers who received the advertisement went for a sentimental approach similar to “Adol’s Legend,” “Forest Creatures,” or “Ocetmon,” focusing on gathering, construction, mob collection, nurturing, exploration, etc., Lee Dohyuk’s straightforward slaughter mode was actually providing even more fun.

[Lee Dohyuk’s Monster Playthrough is Hilarious hahahaha]

[Today’s Inner Child Slayer.gif]

[Why isn’t the meat dropping?]

[Monster friend Cockatrice? Today’s meal for me]

[Hey, figured out how to get meat, yup, you have to hunt it down yourself, not just kill mobs]

In the Monster Buddies community, Lee Dohyuk’s gameplay was becoming a major topic.

It had only been 30 minutes since Lee Dohyuk’s Monster playthrough started.

During that short time, hundreds of posts related to Lee Dohyuk were being uploaded.

-This is actually getting interesting the more I watch it.

-For real, it looks really fun – like, how is it not fun when you start by killing an OOmon hahahaha

“Hmm… I guess I have to cook this now. Luckily, there’s a cooking function.”

Clicking on the Cockatrice meat in the inventory revealed a list of possible dishes.

[Cockatrice Kebab + Mushrooms, Seafood]

[Cockatrice Whole Roast]

[Locked]

“Kebab and whole roast… Seems like these are the only options for now.”

Except for these two, it simply showed that they couldn’t be unlocked due to a lack of cooking level.

[Cooking Level 1: 0 / 100]

Seeing this displayed at the bottom right, it seemed like the cooking level could be raised through repetition without separate point allocation.

-Seeing there’s a cooking function, it seems like it was intentional hahahaha

-Damn, these devs are noobs

-These newbies are acting all tough but their promotion feels like a rip-off Pokémon vibe for real

-A streamer fitting for a game company that destroys your inner child

It wasn’t for nothing that I entrusted the advertisement to Teacher Dohyuk kekekeke

The chat room went crazy when they saw it.

The existence of cooking skills and cooking levels first revealed through Lee Dohyuk’s broadcast.

Since Monver was just released on its second day, technically a fresh new game less than 16 hours old, it was quite an achievement.

Ding-

[User ‘BlackOak’ has donated 10,000 won.]

-Why is it so hard to fill an empty stomach? Gathering only weeds, mushrooms, and tree fruits to fill up yesterday kekekeke

-hahahaha kekeke

-They say it’s easier to move your body when you use your head

-Isn’t he using his body too?

-Isn’t even starting by splitting your head using your head?

In reality, among the streamers who hosted Monver broadcasts yesterday, the most common complaint was about the hunger system.

As time passed, hunger levels dropped rapidly, but the lack of suitable food to fill it up was a major issue.

Unless they had a somewhat developed farming system or had constructed a ranch to gather eggs by catching a lot of chickens, everyone had to do a bit of fighting, gather tree fruits, collect monsters, and pick mushrooms!

Because of this, some honest streamers conducting ads pointed out this as a problem.

Tap-

“Hmm… Really? Why did they say that? Anyway, you did well picking up the ingredients earlier.”

Lee Dohyuk opened the skill window and distributed skill points to [Tool Making].

With each level up, you could obtain stat points and skill points, with skill points used to increase crafting abilities.

In Monver, there were four types of crafting skills: [Equipment Making], [Tool Making], [Weapon Making], and [Specialty Making].

As each level increased, the quality of items such as equipment and tools that could be crafted also increased.

For example, activating [Weapon Making] and entering ‘Spear Making’ would display a list of spears that could be crafted even at level 2, and the system would be completed by separately sourcing the necessary materials for crafting.

If you simply entered ‘Spear Making’, it would not be possible to craft a ‘Steel Spear’ due to insufficient level.

Currently, Lee Dohyuk’s level was 7.

Having focused on hunting for about 20 minutes out of 30 minutes of playtime, he reached level 7.

The remaining time was spent picking up wood, stones, and other materials seen occasionally.

Thanks to this, he didn’t need to farm separately for the ingredients needed for crafting cooking tools.

Thud-thud-thud-thud-

Sounds of cooking utensils such as knives, cutting boards, pots, and dishes being quickly made while executing [Tool Making].

Meanwhile, Lee Dohyuk took out some chicken from his inventory.

“Hmm…”

In the game, the chicken meat was in the form of raw chicken.

Lee Dohyuk planned to make [Chicken Skewers + Mushrooms, Seafood].

“Now that the cooking tools are ready…”

Lee Dohyuk skillfully prepared the chicken.

Tap! Thud!

His hands moved swiftly.

Dividing the chicken into parts, removing fat from some areas.

It was a skilled performance, reminiscent of a seasoned chef.

-Oh

– Wow, he’s good-looking.

– Wow, does he cook well too?

The chat window was filled with admiration for Lee Dohyuk’s appearance.

For those living in a world on the brink of destruction, cooking was a necessary skill, almost like a virtue.

…However, Lee Dohyuk was not one of those people.

Nevertheless, having lived alone, he could manage to cook rice or a simple stew, but beyond that, he was hopeless.

Even in his days as a non-awakened, and during his time as a hunter, Lee Dohyuk rarely cooked.

From Noble mtl dot com

“Oh, just so you know, I’m not the one doing this. My body is moving on its own.”

Lee Dohyuk revealed the truth.

In fact, it was his cooking skill doing everything on its own.

– Ah.

– LOL, again hahahaha.

– It’s so cool.

– If Dohyuk-sensei is good at cooking too, it’s unfair.

Finishing the preparation of the mushrooms and vegetables he had farmed earlier, Dohyuk moved on to skewering them, or more precisely, his character did.

Next, he alternated skewering them onto a wooden stick that appeared from somewhere.

[Skewered meat and mushroom kebabs (uncooked)] x3

And there came the kebabs.

– hahahahaha.

– What’s ‘uncooked’ again?

– I guess because they haven’t been grilled yet.

“Now, shall we grill these? But we’ll need a fire for that…”

After putting three kebabs in his inventory, Dohyuk looked around.

Where could he find fire?

He was certain he had seen something while passing by earlier.

“Hmm. There it is.”

Clang-

[“Jredragon” has donated 1,000 won.]

– To make a campfire, just level up your crafting tools once more.

A viewer kindly explained how to start a fire.

Of course, Dohyuk wasn’t paying attention to that.

He didn’t need to listen, after all.

Ping! Ping ping!

There it was, a Fireling that he had caught a few of earlier, appearing in the novice field.

Approaching it, Dohyuk started provoking the Fireling.

Whack!

Without warning, Dohyuk kicked the Fireling.

The Fireling screeched in anger.

Sizzle!

Roar!

And the fireworks bursting from Bullsoong’s mouth!

Ido-hyuk swiftly took out three skewers from his inventory.

Whoosh!

“Oh, great firepower.”

Whoosh!

Dodging Bullsoong’s fireworks left and right, Ido-hyuk demonstrated his amazing skill of precisely grilling skewers.

-LOLOLOL

-Is this guy insane? LOL

-You’re just figuring that out now?

A few more hours passed.

[Super Ultra God-tier New Game “Monster Buddies Play” (Homework) / Ido-hyuk / 19,865 viewers]

“Alright, everyone. Unfortunately, let’s call it a day for now.”

-NOOO

“I wanted to watch more.”

“Maintaining 20,000 viewers at 3 am, insane LOL.”

“Concrete is crazy LOL.”

“Today’s stream was lit.”

“Don’t go.”

Viewers bid farewell to his stream ending declaration.

Normally, there would have been more people holding Ido-hyuk back, but not today, as his Monster Buddies stream had been particularly exciting.

Although the viewer count had slightly dropped from its peak, still maintaining 20,000 viewers proved it.

The current time was already 3 am.

3 am, a very late hour when only the true fans remained.

Not even on the eve of a weekend, having 20,000 viewers at 3 am was impressive.

“Tomorrow, I might start a bit earlier like today. Since there’s a patch for Iron Fist in Part 1, I’ll start with Aphe.”

Ido-hyuk briefly mentioned his broadcast plan for the next day.

Just a while ago, viewers had informed him of a new patch for Iron Fist scheduled for the next day.

-NOOB

“Update and come back.”

“But if Tetsujin appears, isn’t it a big advantage for Dosen?”

“Yeah, just floating to ensure victory.”

“Looking at Quabnai’s style, he might be able to handle Tetsujin LOL.”

“But it won’t make that much difference.”

“Well, even without that character, I would have won. Still… it seems quite fun.”

They also heard an explanation about a new character.

A character capable of replicating the movements and combat styles of other characters.

Ido-hyuk thought it would be a great match for him.

Of course, the possibility of winning didn’t increase thanks to Tetsujin as viewers claimed. It wasn’t like that at all.

What’s winning? Even if it was Quabna, a transcendent hunter who went through all sorts of battles, he was confident facing the previous Quabna, so why would he lack confidence facing the current one?

Instead, Itohyuk had separate expectations for the character Tetsujin.

-Pretend to be Kujoin and then switch to Neoshin, that would be hilarious.

-LOL for real.

-By the way, tomorrow, I’ll have all episodes 1 to 4 of my disciples’ broadcasts on.

-hahahaha, nice.

-If tomorrow’s broadcast seems fun, I’ll totally recommend it LOL.

-Lately, I find it so fun watching Dohyuk-sensei catch Tsuki.

-LOL, for real.

“Hmm.”

As if coming from the chat window, this time, how much he could torment… no, educate disciples 1 to 4 with Tetsujin!

Itohyuk was already looking forward to the rank game scheduled for tomorrow.

“Oh, and in Part 2, I think we’ll have a Monster ad like today. It’s surprisingly fun.”

-Yeah, super fun.

-I bought Monster right away too.

-hahahaha, this could be fun even as a multiplayer game.

“Anyway, that’s it for today! Ta ta!”

-Ta ta.

-See ya~~

-GG

-Bye

And so ended Itohyuk’s broadcast.

And in the early hours of that day at 6 a.m.

A video was uploaded on Itohyuk’s YouTube channel.

[Ohhh, Delicious!! / Monster Buddies Episode 1]

Doytube, who was watching the live broadcast, quickly edited and uploaded today’s show.

Originally, it was supposed to be the turn for videos like Bahlala or Iron Fist, but thinking it was the right timing after watching the live show, the editing was done hastily.

And…

-hahahaha, what’s this?

-OMG, what game is this??

-It’s a mix of everything, but it’s surprisingly fun LOL.

-At 4:39, his expression doesn’t change at all, is this scripted?

Is this Monster? It’s my lunch now.

-But seriously, it looks delicious, it’s a trap.

-Yum!

Rapidly flowing comments.

Itohyuk’s YouTube channel was usually like this.

But there was something different about this video than before.

– Who is this person? I’ve seen them a lot.
