Gender Swap: The Introvert’s Broadcast

[🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: Mmm, yeah, yeah, you're angry now.] [🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: Calm down.] [Whoa, whoa~] [You're really angry right now, calm down haha.] [These guys are all stirring things up together hahaha.] [But it’s true, calming down is the right thing to do… because getting angry here won’t change anything.]

That’s actually true.
Getting angry won’t change anything.
But sometimes, even when you know that, you need to get angry.
Like now.

“My sister’s friends, what would they think of me?”

[🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: Shit! Hahaha, can you hear the donation sound on the stream?] [Hahahahahahaha.] [As expected, the truth is the manager bb.] [But now that I think about it again, I’m the one embarrassed.] [Ahh, so embarrassing.] [Kang Hoo-min: Not a bad taste. I support you.] [Please stop supporting me…] [Scat, lezzy…]

I complained and restarted the game.
It seemed better to clear my mind through the game.
It felt like it would be easier to sort things out while playing.

“Ah, I’ll enjoy ranked today.”

Today, I’ve gotten way too stressed.
So, relieving that stress through the game seemed important.
If I can't release it here, it will build up and turn into a mental illness, most likely.

[🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: Don’t enjoy it too much.] [Solo rank emergency hahaha.] [The Diamond gatekeepers, you’re all dead now.] [Orphan maker, Dama ON.] [Let’s go with Luxembourg’s widower maker, Dama.] [As expected, family division is a Dama haha.] [Hwanhee: The Dama’s grinning at the thought of tearing apart the enemy’s top, big thumbs up hahaha.]

“Phew, let’s go.”

I was going to vent the heat building up in my head by beating up the enemy.
Until they say they messed up.
And soon after.

Ding-!
The game started, and I immediately randomly selected a champion.
Then one champion appeared.

“Finally, a normal champion came out.”

A champion with an alluring physique, using a bow.
She was mostly purple in color.
I liked her right away.
I liked the fact that she used a 'bow.'

‘That means I can hit from a distance.’

Hitting the top lane from a distance and measuring the range was my specialty.

“Taking focused attack.”@@novelbin@@

If you attack the opponent three times consecutively, the damage dealt to that champion increases, so I picked that rune and changed the minor runes to those focused on the early lane phase.

[Mangming: Oh.] [Mangming: The rune setup is spot on now.] [Mangming: This rune is really good.] [🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: Mangming isn’t streaming again, huh.] [Mangming, stream it, Mangming, stream it, Mangming, stream it, Mangming, stream it, Mangming, stream it.] [But honestly, Dama’s stream is more fun than Mangming’s nowadays…]

[Temporarily banned!]

[🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: TAS mentioned, not allowed.] [Mangming: Seriously, don’t mention TAS.] [No way, Si-Byun, you’re the one stirring things up in the chat. How could you not mention it?] [Kang Hoo-min: It’s a talent to not stir things up.]

I glanced at the chat and saw Mangming was there.
Looks like he hadn’t started streaming yet.

‘Seems like he’s been here more often lately.’

He used to come often, but recently, it feels like he’s been here even more.
I thought about that for a second, then spoke up.

“Writing 'No graffiti' on a graffiti spot is also graffiti. I’ve been on the internet for years, and you shouldn’t stir things up if you don’t want trouble.”

The people watching my stream right now were probably seasoned community members.
If that’s the case, they should be immune to trolling.
That’s why I gave them a quick warning with a simple sentence like that.
They’ll understand it easily.

[🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: Haha, really.] [Graffiti prohibition is graffiti itself, you bastards.] [Mangming: Let’s just watch the game.] [Mangming: Don’t mention TAS.] [Twist his neck hahaha (just talking to myself, not mentioning TAS, no ban please).] [Putting brackets in the chat is so annoying hahaha.] [Just openly mention TAS and get banned, why act like such a coward?] [Kang Hoo-min: Acting like a coward is good for survival.] [Cowardly experience.]

[Temporarily banned!]

Having picked my champion, I quickly typed in the chat.

[Du Gong: Hold on.] [Du Gong: Be right back from the bathroom.]

I quickly typed and dashed off to the bathroom to take care of business.
There was a little time left before the game started after I made my pick.
Afterward, I washed my hands quickly, sat back down, bought my items, and headed to the lane.

“Still made it back quickly. Phew, that was close.”

[🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: Nothing’s more frustrating than being late and having to remake.] [If it’s the bathroom, I understand, but the guys who take time out for cigarettes, I want to kill them.] [Hwanhee: Haha, seriously, those cigarette guys should have their necks twisted and be displayed…]

[Dama: I just came back from a bathroom break, 2 minutes 4 seconds ♥]

[Temporarily banned!]

[What is this chat?] [Wait, did I really just see that?] [This is dizzying…] [Please stop.]

I thought I saw something that I wasn’t supposed to see in the chat.
I must have been mistaken.
Yes, it has to be.

I thought that and then checked the opponent’s top laner.

“Opponents have a Jelly.”

A champion that looks like jelly came to the top.
She was a champion who usually goes top, so it wasn’t anything new, but she was a bit tricky.
She was a champion with a strong burst potential.

[🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: This is going to be so fun already hahaha.] [Show us you beating up the top laner.] [It’s a little sorry to beat the Jelly with the top lane Varus.] [Jelly can say something, but if it turns into a one-shot fight, she can definitely win afterwards.] [Hwanhee: If you pick a tank against a ranged top laner, it means you're confident.]

And the game began.

Pew.
Pew.
I kept shooting arrows from range.
The opponent’s health started to slowly drop.
But I wasn’t satisfied with that.

Wooong-
Hooong-!

Gathering my energy, I triggered the stack attached to Jelly, exchanged damage, and soon the opponent’s health dropped below half.
I used Flash immediately to finish off the enemy’s health.

But then—

Wriggle, wriggle.
Due to her passive, the enemy top laner didn’t die all at once, but transformed into four jelly forms.
But since I knew this beforehand, I wasn’t flustered and kept attacking the jelly.

And just when there were only two hits left.

Iku-!

Our bald jungler came and killed the Jelly.
And shortly after.

[You have slain an enemy!]

[Lee Sin -> Zac]

“Why the hell did he take that kill? It was just an easy kill.”

Varus’s passive increases attack speed when an enemy champion is killed, and I could barely finish off the Jelly.
But he took the last hit.

[🗡️Omniscient Cthulhu: That fucking idiot.] [Baldy average hahaha.] [What a piece of shit, stealing kills like that.] [Whoa, whoa~] [Why are they so angry?] [As expected, top lane’s self-crit is a maniac average hahaha.] [Kang Hoo-min: Where does that idiot live?]

But I could understand.
If I had made even the smallest mistake with my auto-attacks, I wouldn’t have been able to finish off the enemy.

“Still, don’t curse too much. It was a bit of an awkward damage calculation.”

If I didn’t say this early, viewers might add the jungler as a friend and bombard him with curses, so I had to give them a heads-up beforehand.
If I didn’t, I’d be the one getting cursed at.

[Allied][LondonIsDangerous][Varus]: Good. [Allied][coocoo][Lee Sin]: Yummy.

“...Hmm.”

Hearing “Yummy” felt like he was trying to pick a fight.
But I was probably just overthinking it.
Kills do feel good, after all.
Thinking this, I continued playing the game.
I wasn’t sure how much time had passed, but then…

“Ah, kill opportunity.”

I used my ultimate to bind the enemy, shot an arrow, and Jelly became almost dead.
Now, I just needed to pressure the lane and dive.

But then.

[You have been slain!]

[Zac -> Lee Sin]

“Huh?”

Why did our jungler die all of a sudden?
I couldn’t understand it.
I was going to push the lane and dive.
Even if the opponent top laner retreated, that would be to our advantage.
Confused, I was about to say something when—

[Allied][coocoo][Lee Sin]: Why aren’t you pushing the lane faster? [Allied][coocoo][Lee Sin]: We could’ve finished this with a dive lol. [Allied][coocoo][Lee Sin]: Sigh.

“Oops.”

As soon as I heard that, I wanted to type something, but I held back with superhuman patience.
If I got angry here, I’d be the one at a disadvantage.
I had to endure.

“Phew.”

I kept enduring, continuing the laning phase.

[Allied][coocoo][Lee Sin]: If we had taken the top earlier, we would have won the game. [Allied][coocoo][Lee Sin]: The more I think about it, the more frustrating it gets.

Lee Sin kept exchanging damage.
