"Yoon Se-jin...!"

Sung JiHan, who had been acting all along, sincerely felt a pang of pain upon hearing the phone call.

A heartless bastard who even abandoned his own child for love.

As he listened to the notification he gave to Yoon Se-ah, his anger surged.

"I didn't know it was about this back then."

At that time, Sung JiHan was too busy calming himself down, so he didn't pay attention to Yoon Se-ah, and he didn't know that this phone call was vividly recorded.

-Whoa... crazy bastard... crazy bastard...

-Is this Sung JiHan a complete bastard?

-He ran away to Japan just because of a woman?

Most people were outraged after hearing the contents of the phone call.

"No, this is fake!"

"Sung JiHan. You. Have. No. Right. To. Say. That."

"Guaranteed by the Sung JiHan Fan Club!"

The fans of Sung JiHan, members of the Sung JiHan Fan Club, tried hard to deny this reality.

"The Sung JiHan Fan Club. Those bastards."

Sung JiHan, who pretended to be inexperienced about Battle Tube.

But his eyes quickly scanned through all the comments popping up in the chat window.

Even after listening to this recording, most of the people who claimed that Sung JiHan would never do such a thing were fans of Sung JiHan.

"They eventually... Se-ah..."

Sung JiHan briefly thought about the terrible incident that happened in the past, then recalled the situation in front of the camera and managed his expression again.

"Like this, Yoon Se-jin clearly expressed his intentions to us."

"...Yes, that's right."

Yoon Se-ah responded a beat late to Sung JiHan's words.

Her expression showed no signs of wavering.

Her poignant expression, as if trying to forget her sadness, instead stirred the hearts of the viewers.

"The daughter is innocent."

"Oh, come on. Who cares about the daughter? Se-ah is innocent anyway."

"Crazy bastards..."

"Is her face the only important thing right now?"

Opinions in the chat window were divided due to Yoon Se-ah's enhanced appearance.

Observing the confusion for a moment, Sung JiHan finally brought up the main purpose of today's Battle Tube broadcast.

"Like this, even though we received a one-sided notification from my father the day before yesterday..."

"I take responsibility for my father's outrageous behavior. As his daughter, I must have done something wrong..."

Yoon Se-ah's voice paused for a moment.

She turned her face away from the camera for a moment.

Her emotionless expression actually stimulated the viewers' hearts.

"The Sword Palace."

"What? The Sword Palace?"

The news of donating the Sword Palace to the country caused a stir in the chat window.

The Sword Palace.

A 67-story complex building built in the heart of Gangnam.

Its value was enormous, enough for not just three, but ten generations to live comfortably.

And they're donating it to the country?

"Are they crazy?"

"Isn't that girl impersonating the daughter of the Sword King?"

"Donating the Sword Palace..."

"That's on a whole different level, isn't it?"

"I'm speaking as a member of the Sword King's group. Se-ah, you are being deceived. Be careful of the man next to you. He's a scammer."

"I'm speaking as a member of the Sword King's group. Se-ah, you are being deceived. Be careful of the man next to you. He's a scammer."

It was not surprising that people reacted like this.

Sword Palace.

Although the value of that building was exceptional.

The decision to donate it was essentially a declaration that Sung JiHan was convinced that the Sword King would never come to Korea.

The fans of the Sword King's fan club reacted even more intensely, flooding the chat rooms with posts about selling Sung JiHan.

They couldn't attack Yoon Sae-ah, the Sword King's daughter.

"They are a religious group."

And not just any religious group, but one that was close to being a cult.

Sung JiHan decided to ignore them for now.

Since they were a group that would never change their beliefs, there was no need to cater to their whims.

Now, the priority was to eliminate any potential enemies that might arise against his niece, Yoon Sae-ah.

"It's better to hand over the building to the country than to let it be taken away."

Even though it might seem regrettable now, the situation would change once Yoon Sae-jin, the Sword King, started making a real impact in Japan.

Not only the Sword King, but Yoon Sae-ah, who inherited his legacy, would also face the anger of the entire nation.

Preventing such a situation from happening was crucial.

"After all, if I succeed as a player, I can buy any building I want."

Even Sung JiHan, who had lived in a larger building in the heart of New York during the final stages of BattleNet, when only ten countries remained, knew that material benefits were not lacking.

And...

"The Sword King... I will be the one to bear the brunt of their enmity."

The Sword King's fan club, the Sword King's family.

When the Sword King came out as Japan's national representative and sank Korea, most people left the club.

But a few remained and became even more fanatical.

At first, they seemed to support Yoon Sae-ah, the Sword King's bloodline, but later they became completely corrupted.

- The Sword King abandoned the country because his daughter misbehaved.

- The Sword King will come when Yoon Sae-ah dies!

To the point where they would do something cruel to Yoon Sae-ah.

In the previous life, Sung JiHan could only watch this happen.

But not anymore.

"Yes. Let's turn the Sword King's enemies towards me."

Step by step.

Sung JiHan walked towards the camera he had set up and held it up.

"Uncle...?"

Yoon Sae-ah questioned Sung JiHan's sudden change in camera position, her tone filled with doubt.

- Huh?

- Where are you going?

The viewers also became curious about where he was going.

Without answering their questions, Sung JiHan continued to walk step by step.

And he stopped at the penthouse garden and the rooftop of Sword Palace.

There, a giant golden figure with two swords crossed was placed.

"Uncle? Why are we here...?"

"Sae-ah, and everyone. Do you know what this structure is?"

"Well... It's a statue of dual swords. It's the symbol of Sword Palace."

- Wow... It's always so majestic.

- Wow! You know about the statue of dual swords! As a member of the Sword King's family, I must inform you that this statue of dual swords was personally designed by our great Sword King when he built Sword Palace! The main material is stainless steel, but some parts are made of 18K gold! Some say it's Nordic gold, but it's actually certified by the World Gold Council...

-Boring.

-He still gets excited whenever the topic of the Great Swords comes up.

-Anyway, why the statue of dual swords?

The symbol of Sword Palace, designed personally by the Sword King.

Sung JiHan looked at the statue of dual swords with a nostalgic gaze.

"This... was the pride of our family and the symbol of Gangnam, the symbol of Seoul."

- No, it's the symbol of South Korea!

- As a member of the Sword King's family, I warn you not to speak in the past tense.

- Don't be ridiculous. Since Ito went to Japan, that thing is now a disgrace.

- Ah, he's starting to get sentimental.

"But..."

Sung JiHan handed the camera to Yoon Sae-ah.

"Uncle...?"

And then, he assumed a stance.

A stance that was unmistakably the posture of a coup d'etat.

- Huh??

-What the heck is happening? What is this?

-Are you kidding?

-As a member of the Sword King's group, I warn you! Stop your disrespectful attitude!

Sung JiHan looked at the camera in Yoon SeA's hand.

And he declared to the nation.

"It's not anymore."

Kwang!

Sung JiHan's fist, containing all his power, struck the giant sword statue.

And once again.

Kwang!

-Me... me...!

-What... what a crazy person!

-What the hell are you doing! Stop right now!

-Do you dare to destroy the protection of the twin swords!

The chat box in the streaming room went crazy.

Especially the fans belonging to the Sword King's extreme fan club, who were part of the Sword King's group, went wild.

And Sung JiHan desired this resentment from these fanatics.

Kwang! Kwang! Kwang!

Despite the screams and mixed comments from the Sword King's group, Sung JiHan's fist did not stop.

Furthermore, Sung JiHan's punches, achieving a power level of 12, became so powerful that even the twin sword statue made of metal was instantly crushed.

Not long after.

The symbol of Sword Palace, the giant twin sword statue on the rooftop, quickly turned into a miserable sight.

And.

Kiiiiiiiiii-

The broken end of the supporting base of the sword tilted towards Sung JiHan.

The situation where the giant structure was about to crush him.

"Uncle!"

Yoon SeA was surprised and tried to rush to save Sung JiHan.

Thud.

Sung JiHan's hand, casually reaching out, lightly supported the giant debris.

"Yoon SeJin... No, Ito Ryuhei."

Sung JiHan looked at the camera.

The Sung JiHan on the screen showed a completely opposite appearance from before, where he was cowering.

A relaxed smile and overflowing confidence.

"Personally, I found this disgusting to watch. It was quite cringey. But now it seems quite interesting."

Snicker.

A deep smile appeared on Sung JiHan's lips.

At the same time, his hand supporting the twin swords was dyed with a white light.

-What is that?

-Is it possible... the power of Qi?

-No, it's white in color. Is it divine power?

-What! This is unbelievable. How can a Bronze use that?

Standardization of Qi.

A technique that can only be used after reaching at least Gold level among the Warrior class.

And a Bronze, who had just graduated from the God Tutorial, was showing it in front of the camera.

Moreover, using it with a white light, utilizing divine power.

'Whether it's divine power or Qi, the starting point may be different, but the way it's used is similar.'

Thud!

And that white light, tinged with a sense of holiness, penetrated into the "twin sword statue."

In an instant, the gold rapidly spread throughout the structure.

Warrururur-

It turned into countless pieces and collapsed.

"If you have a problem, come and face me."

Sung JiHan completely destroyed the symbol of the Sword King, looked at the camera, and snapped his fingers.

The reactions were extreme.

-Amazing.

-That's the power of a Bronze...?

-Wow, he did it well!

Some were surprised and cheered.

-Crazy...

-You son of a b*tch!

-You will not be forgiven, 검왕가. I will not forgive you.

There were those who spread primitive criticism.

"Good."

And all of these reactions were what Sung JiHan intended.

The attention of the public.

Cheers and curses. Astonishment and contempt.

He willingly decided to bear the intersection of countless emotions alone.

As if responding to his heart, numerous messages came to Sung JiHan's mind.

[50,000 viewers watched simultaneously.]

[Completed general achievement, 'Recruit Viewers (3)'.]

[Collected 30,000 likes.]

[Completed general achievement, 'I... I love you (2)'.]

[Obtained 3,000 achievement points as a reward.]

Achievements that cannot be achieved at the current level.

But Sung JiHan's attention was elsewhere.

What he was interested in was the public's reaction.

In this broadcast, who was aggroed the most.

That was the most important thing.

-You want to see my passion? Eat this.

-How dare you break Sword Palace's twin swords. Sung JiHan...!

No surprise there.

The chat room was flooded with his name.

Sung JiHan smiled.

It was a good phenomenon.

"Pour all of your emotions onto me."

He remembered the past he wanted to forget.

-Sae-ah is amazing. Uncle, it's really hell...

When he received public criticism and muttered such nonsense with a dejected face in front of Yoon Sae-ah.

-Uncle... It's okay. I'm here. I'll protect you.

To hear such words of comfort from his 9-year-old niece who received ten times more insults than him.

Despite her bright smile and seemingly fine appearance.

He had no idea how much she was hurt, how rotten and exposed she was at that time.

"But not anymore."

Yes.

This life is different.

Sung JiHan looked at the camera.

"As you can see, we need to exclude the Twin Sword Statue from the Sword Palace Building's donation items."

-Aaaah! The Twin Sword Statue!

-The symbol of the Sword King...!

-What the hell are you doing?!

-What are you going to do if the Sword King gets angry and never comes back?!

At those words, the chat room was in chaos due to the firepower of the 검왕가.

Sung JiHan looked at it and chuckled.

Their enemies.

Not Sae-ah, but those who were solely directed at him.

He bowed deeply in front of the camera.

"Well then. Today's broadcast will end here."

And when this broadcast ended.

The whole country boiled once again.
