Chapter 24: A Typical Call-Out Post and an Untypical Kwon Se-ah.

The morning of Kwon Se-ah, the youngest daughter of a chaebol family, was ordinary.

She would wake up around 11 AM, still groggy, go to the bathroom, and then take a thorough shower.

After that, she’d toss the clothes she wore all day yesterday into the laundry hamper, open the fridge, and eat the breakfast Elodie had prepared.

For reference, Elodie doesn’t exactly live with her, so the breakfast situation is random.

Sometimes I have to boil pasta myself, and other times I have to munch on a pre-portioned salad.

Still, she comes to make dinner every evening, so far from having any complaints, I was feeling great satisfaction with this life.

“Checked that there are no special messages on Tok…!”

(TL: Tok refers to KakaoTalk, a popular Korean messaging app.)

While boiling pasta, I checked Tok.

Chief Secretary Lee Eun-byul or Kwon Si-young sometimes had important things to say, so I had to check it as soon as I woke up.

Elodie

「This morning, I’ve prepared tomato pasta, which you like, Young Miss.」

Kwon Se-ah

『(Emoticon of a cute, soft bear giving an OK sign)』

Elodie sent a Tok like this every day, and it was comfortable because there was no problem even if I replied casually.

…Honestly, when Kwon Si-young or Chief Secretary Lee Eun-byul sends a Tok, I sometimes get so incredibly nervous that my underbust sweats.

“Looks like I can relax and play all day today too…”

Elodie would scream if she saw me boiling pasta wearing only panties and an apron.

But what can I do?

This is comfortable!

─ Bubble, bubble! Bubble, bubble!

“The game updated, so there are subtly more things to do again…”

Galaxy Train, after the Colosseum ended, had its 1.1 update not long after.

New characters and Arcanas were released, so I had to farm…

“Huh…?”

【Hawawa Middle Schooler-jjang】

《Clan Lv. 4》

『Clan Members 15/30』

“What…? Why did the clan suddenly get Thanos-snapped? What’s going on?”

I hurriedly entered the clan chat.

◆Pioneer◆

◆Renako’s Baby Palace Exploration Team◆

「If we stay here, aren’t we going to get caught up in the 통돌이 (tongdori – a large, rotating drum, likely referring to a mass ban) and get permanently banned too?」

◆Release Princess Riri◆

「No, but is it real??? I saw the sniper post, and it was written by a 깡계 (kkanggye – a throwaway/burner account)???」

◆DieByFarmingHalf◆

「Clan Leader!! Where did you go!! Clan Leader!!! Explain yourself!! Clan Leader!!!」

◆Renako’sEfficacy◆

「No matter how I look at it, that guy just seems like a fcking troll…」

◆Shuri◆

「We can’t help those who left, but let’s wait a bit.」

“What is this…? Someone sniped me? So half the clan members left in a rush?”

My head felt subtly dizzy.

It felt like someone was gripping my torso tightly and crushing it.

“No… Still… Half of the clan members still believe in me.”

◆LaBelleAr◆

「Hawawa! Middle Schooler-jjang just woke up!」

「I’ll check the sniper post right away and be back!」

For now, this should be enough for the clan members!

「Galaxy Train Gallery」

[Is the popular sniper post real? Well, it was fcking strange anyway lol (9)]

[This is why internet broadcast addicts are no good. I knew it when they were simping for Mallang, Heretic, and Lilith last time (12)]

[But is it right to let a burner account snipe like that? (21)]

[Is Hawawa Middle Schooler-jjang getting stripped of 1st place in clan war? This is hilarious ㅋㅋㅋㅋ (11)]

[All the bstards who were showing off their golden Seren skins are gonna get them taken away ㅋㅋㅋ Kya! (2)]

The gallery, not betraying expectations, was a mess.

“Ugh… My stomach hurts.”

I haven’t even eaten breakfast, so why does my stomach feel like it’s churning strangely?

For now, I hurriedly sat down on a nearby chair.

[★(Requesting upvotes) Sniping the Clan Leader of Hawawa Middle Schooler-jjang – LaBelleAr.]

Hello.

I’ve been deliberating for a while, but I can’t stand it anymore, so I’m writing this post.

As others may have felt, LaBelleAr (currently 1st in Korean server clan war, 1st in PVP) cannot be seen as having grown through normal methods.

(Photo of LaBelleAr holding 685,710 ‘Glittering Dreams’ on Mallang’s broadcast)

LaBelleAr’s account possesses an amount of ‘Glittering Dreams’ that is logically impossible to have.

She even boasted about this fact on streamer Mallang’s broadcast.

(Screenshot showing Kwon Se-ah’s Seren and Ha Eun-rich as 1st in combat power ranking)

LaBelleAr has maliciously used her abnormally large amount of Glittering Dreams to develop her characters to a level that other players cannot follow.

(Photo of Heretic elaborately calculating that ordinary users can never obtain the Arcanas Kwon Se-ah farmed)

As you can see from the screenshot I’ve attached, an ordinary user would need to farm Arcanas an average of over 800 times to catch up to LaBelleAr’s combat power.

To do this kind of farming, an ordinary user would need 120 days’ worth of Pioneer Power.

Considering that most users started farming Arcanas less than 3 weeks ago, this is nonsensical.

(Photo of Kwon Se-ah subtly showing off a figure to attract attention)

Furthermore, LaBelleAr possesses a figure of ‘Modreda,’ which was officially released in version 1.1.

I believe this single photo is proof that she has an operator account and shows how her abnormal in-game growth was achieved.

(Photo proving Kwon Se-ah’s FID is 600000003)

In the first place, if you look at LaBelleAr’s FID, as everyone knows, it’s a situation where it cannot be anything but an operator account.

(Photo of Heretic’s own account)

It is difficult to see LaBelleAr as a user who enjoys the game by paying for it in good faith like me.

Unlike us who spend money, she can farm infinitely and pull characters for free with the privileges of an operator account.

Even in this situation, should we let this user continue to monopolize clan war rewards and PVP rewards?

Innocent users are being victimized, aren’t they?

Please,運営陣 (management/operations team), investigate this.

It has crossed the line to just bury it and move on.

「What is this」

「Wha-wha-wha-what」

「Wasn’t HawawaMiddleSchoolerJjang a gallery clan? Is this real?」

「Fck lol, no wonder it was strange. She was fcking strange since she got 1st in combat power.」

『▶ For real lol, logically, she was spending a sht ton where she didn’t need to spend money.』

「Wow lol, isn’t this the kind of sht they pulled in Thor? The old guys there got screwed over by this stuff a lot lol」

『▶ Like when a suddenly super strong guild appears, and a streamer cusses them out a lot, only to find out they’re an employee or something?』

『▶▶ Yeah, they’re pulling that sht in this game too.』
「What is this, is it real?? Fck, I’m in MiddleSchoolerJjang, do I have to leave?」

『▶ This btch is gonna get all her clan war rewards taken away lol』

“… … What is this. Isn’t this stupid? Why am I an operator? Maybe an affiliate, but! Why am I an operator? And who received special treatment!”

Cold sweat dripped from my forehead.

[Hawawa Middle Schooler-jjang < Upvote if you’re pissed off (12)]

“Why are you cussing out my clan members?! If you’re going to cuss someone out, shouldn’t it just be me? In the first place, the so-called evidence is nothing but Heretic’s delusions!”

My hands turned cold.

「Honestly, it was strange watching Heretic’s broadcast last time ㅇㅇ」

『▶Her defense party kept pulling out ridiculous stuff, it was just pulled out with an infinite money cheat.』

『▶▶ For real, how can Heretic win when the 1st place person is just ‘poofing’ things into existence?』

“N-no, don’t be ridiculous! It’s a party I created after searching overseas, and it’s a party I made by diligently spending my own money to recharge Pioneer Power!!!”

It became difficult to breathe.

[LaBelleAr < This btch was attracting a sht ton of attention, turns out she was just a fraud using an operator account to cheat]

“No. It’s not true!”

Nausea welled up.

「Ah, fck, I joined the MiddleSchoolerJjang clan for nothing ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ」

『▶A sucker appears ㅋㅋㅋㅋ』

“T-trust me a little. I haven’t even written an explanation yet! Why are you only listening to Heretic and cussing me out?!”

I felt an unpleasant burnt smell tickling the tip of my nose.

◆Renako’sBabyPalaceExplorationTeam◆

「Clan Leader!!! Explain yourself!!!」

“Ah…”

[So when is that sniped btch getting permanently banned? (12)]

“Ah… Ah…”

◆Shuri◆

「Let’s wait until the Clan Leader posts an explanation, shall we?」

「From what I can see, it just looks like she spent a lot of money diligently on the game.」

“Why am I… getting so worked up about this…”

─ Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!

I just threw my smartphone on the floor.

A sense of powerlessness I had never felt before in my life engulfed me.

Is this the depression Kwon Se-ah felt?

I don’t know for sure, but suddenly I didn’t want to do anything.

“…Explain what, how. Let’s just quit.”

─ Beeeeeeeeep!!!!

At the same time the loud fire alarm stopped ringing, a flood of water poured down from above my head.

Ah, come to think of it, I was boiling pasta…

“Besides this, Kwon Se-ah can do many things. She has 4 billion won in her bank account…”

The moment I muttered and stood up from my seat.

I very foolishly stepped on the water scattered on the floor and fell.

***

“Are you feeling a bit better, Young Miss?”

Elodie, who was contacted that the fire alarm in our house had gone off, quickly came to the house and rescued me.

Thanks to her, I was able to avoid catching a cold after being sprawled out in the kitchen, soaking wet.

Elodie, appearing like a hero, brought a towel, dried me off, and even changed my clothes.

“Yes… I’m okay now.”

“It seems you had a bit of a bad incident. But good things will happen soon.”

“…No, I’m just not going to do it.”

“Oh my? What are you referring to?”

Why am I telling Elodie this story?

If I had to say, this person is closer to an “inssa” (insider/popular person) and probably knows nothing about community stories.

“I was blamed for something I didn’t even do… and it became too famous… No, it’s just… It’s something Unnie wouldn’t understand, but I’m not going to do it anymore.”

“Are you referring to Galaxy Train?”

“Huh? Huh? Unnie, did you see it? That post?”

My heart sank.

“I don’t know what you’re referring to, Young Miss.”

“Huh…?”

“However, Galaxy Train was running on the smartphone you threw on the floor. So I thought it might be related.”

An empty, tired laugh escaped me for no reason.

“Anyway… I’m sorry, Elodie unnie. I’m not going to play Galaxy Train anymore.”

“… … You’ve returned to the Young Miss of the past.”

Elodie gave a wry smile, took my hand, and gently stroked it.

“But it’s alright. The ground cannot always harden after the rain.”

Her concern for me was so palpable that I couldn’t say anything for a moment.

“Hehe, still, I thought I could finally talk about ordinary hobbies with you after a long time, Young Miss, so it’s a bit disappointing.”

“I enjoyed it too.”

Having otaku talks with Elodie was truly enjoyable.

…In my life, would I ever talk to such a beautiful mixed-race woman about side-boob or butts being too big?

That strangely tingly sensation, like being in a women’s bathhouse, honestly made me feel a sense of anticipation.

“…I was going to tell Unnie about Modreda, but it’s become really disappointing.”

“Oh my? What did you want to say about Modreda?”

“Hmm… You saw the figure in the dress room, right? Did you play through the game story? Modreda first appears as a knight in armor, but when she uses her ultimate in the story, her armor comes off.”

My heart pounded, and I excitedly moved my mouth.

“At that time, her bare face and like this, her chest are all exposed… and her chest is like, incredibly huge~! If it were really that big, it would be incredibly agonizing if she sweated inside the armor, right? I wanted to say something like that.”

“Oh my… Thinking about it, it certainly looks stuffy enough to worry about heat rash.”
Elodie covered her mouth and giggled.

“I thought Modreda didn’t wear a bra at all, so inside that hard armor, it would chafe incredibly, and the tips would hurt.”

“Pfft…! Elodie unnie! What are you thinking?”

A laugh burst out of me for no reason.

Ah, talking about Galaxy Train is fun after all.

…Honestly, I didn’t want to quit.

I want to continue being 1st in clan wars, and in PVP, I want to completely crush the face of Heretic, who falsely sniped me, and make her cry.

No!

In the first place, I want to make her do a naked dogeza (bowing on all fours) to apologize for the false sniping!

“…Elodie unnie. As expected, I’m just going to keep playing Galaxy Train.”

“Oh my… Miss Se-ah?”

“This is my favorite hobby. I don’t want to give up.”

I pushed the blanket away with my hand and got up.

The depression that had been weighing down Kwon Se-ah, the youngest daughter of a chaebol family, was now gone.

“In the first place, most of the things that person sniped are just forced connections, you know? If I bring accurate facts and refute them, honestly, it’s only a matter of time before that person looks like a fool.”

I tapped my palm with my fist and continued.

“And for something like this, just casually writing a post on the gallery is weak in impact, you know? You

need solid facts and a strong impression to completely change public opinion.”
“Miss Se-ah…”

“So, for now, I’m planning to do the explanation via an internet broadcast. And I need someone to add 100% perfect-looking facts to my story… Ah! If I ask Chief Secretary Lee Eun-byul about this, she’ll probably connect me, right?”

Thinking about calmly refuting Heretic’s false sniper post made my heart tingle.

It’s rough, but making a plan makes my heart pound (so much)?

“Then, first, Chief Secretary Lee Eun-byul, about the Galaxy Train Korean server… Huh? Elodie unnie, why are you looking at me like that?”

“Ah, well…”

Elodie’s eyes reddened, and she rubbed them with the back of her hand.

 

“Seeing you not say you’ll take medicine like before is so admirable…”
“I-I have absolutely no intention of taking medicine anymore, so please don’t worry.”

What kind of young lady was Kwon Se-ah originally?

As soon as Elodie heard my words, she hugged me tightly and even patted my butt.

“Ugh, ugh…! W-wait! Just! Elodie unnie! Stop this!!!”

… … I’ve regained my spirits thinking about refuting that internet sniper post, so this is embarrassing, you know?!

Anyway! Prepare yourself, Heretic! I’ll refute you grandly in a way an ordinary user can’t even imagine!
