Chapter 32 : Always Hits

So-seong asked,

“Time Sorcerer, is it possible?”

“Just a moment.”

The Time Sorcerer hid behind the wall, subtly giving heals.

Nanmi seized that moment and pulled the trigger.

Bang! Ding!

“Nice! Let’s push in!”

“Okay!”

So-seong was impressed.

She just catches everything I tell her to.

If I tell her to get the healer, she gets the healer, and if I tell her to get the dealer, she gets the dealer.

It feels like asking an AI.

“Please keep giving orders.”

“Oh my, orders, Nanmi-nim? How dare we give orders? This is a request worthy of bowing.”

Just like Seo-jin said, she catches everything we tell her to, so we should be politely asking instead of giving orders.

Since Nanmi-nim catches them all, the game is so easy from the perspective of a teammate.

For example –

“Nanmi-nim, can you perhaps get Milray? I think Milray has their ultimate ready.”

Both sides had their ultimates charged.

4ze wanted to use their ultimate to push forward, but the Monk Milray would definitely counter with their ultimate.

But it’s okay.

“Just a moment.”

Currently, Milray was hiding behind the wall.

They must have realized that our team’s Ninja 4ze had their ultimate and was preparing to counter.

It wasn’t like there was no way at all.

I hooked onto the wall and jumped upwards.

Whoosh!

In the rising view.

Milray hiding behind the wall was visible.

I jumped too blatantly towards the enemy team’s formation, so the enemy team’s tank and dealer turned their aim to catch me.

I probably wouldn’t survive, but I was throwing myself at the enemy team prepared to die from the start.

The rising body gradually falls downwards.

However, my aim is accurately fixed on Milray’s head.

I pulled the trigger.

Bang!

“!?”

And then.

I guess a pro is a pro?

The moment they appeared in my sight, and the moment I pulled the trigger, Milray used their ultimate right away.

Monk, Ultimate Mandala.

An ultimate that makes you invulnerable for 6 seconds and heals nearby allies for 300 per second.

In other words, an ultimate that makes yourself and surrounding allies invulnerable for 6 seconds.

On top of that.

The enemy team’s Tank Danding-nim’s bullets pounded my body.

In the end.

I died without even killing Milray-nim.

But whatever, the goal was achieved.

“Nanmi-nim! Nice!”

The moment our whole team saw the Monk use their ultimate, they started to retreat.

A temporary retreat to avoid the Monk’s ultimate.

The enemy team, who tried to start a fight while the Monk’s ultimate was active after catching me, was taken aback.

And the moment the Monk’s ultimate ended.

Swoosh-

4ze’s sharp blade, which had been saved up, revealed itself.

-Receive my sword!

Ninja’s ultimate, Single Sword.

Duration 6 seconds.

A powerful ultimate dealing 110 damage per hit.

It has the disadvantage of being a melee weapon, but there aren’t many users who can hit the nimble and small Ninja’s body up close.

Especially when the tank jumps into the formation and it becomes a free-for-all.

So the result was.

[4ze] > [Milray]
[4ze] > [SOON]
[4ze] > [Hippo]
[4ze] > [Danding]
[4ze] > [EVER]
[4ze] > [Ro Steak]

[All 6 enemies eliminated!]

“Seo-jin, nice!”

“Wow…”

I was a little impressed here.

Is this what it’s like to be a Ninja master?

I didn’t think they’d eliminate all 6 enemies, no matter what.

They sliced them all up without losing a single kill.

“What should I do? I feel bad? I think I stole the highlight.”

After the game ends, the highlight video is shown at the end.

The highlight definitely seems to belong to 4ze-nim.

I readily agreed.

“I guess so.”

“Haha, just kidding. It’s all thanks to Nanmi-nim. I was able to eliminate everyone because Nanmi-nim drew out the Mandala.”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“····?”

 You learned well from Ina Ring.

A brief moment of leisure.

But that leisure time ended quickly.

Because the next fight started right away.

“They’ve changed it all.”

“Looks like they changed it to target Nanmi-nim.”

Tank Monkey Man and Armored Soldier.

Dealer Ninja and Racer.

Healer Time Sorcerer and Monk.

It was the most textbook charging combination.

Considering our combination, it’s easy to get caught and there are many counters…

“Monkey Man jumped!”

At So-seong-nim’s cry, I immediately turned my aim towards Monkey Man.

The moment I was about to fire a bullet, Monkey Man’s head quickly turned back and then looked forward.

It was a move to avoid the head.

But even that looked slow to my eyes.

I immediately fired a bullet.

Bang! Ding!

Monkey Man’s HP instantly became half.

But here, I realized I made a mistake.

‘Ah.’

The Ninja and Racer were running towards me to catch me along with Monkey Man.

I immediately moved the mouse and aimed at the Ninja’s head.

No, not the Ninja.

They were using Deflect.

I immediately gave up on the Ninja and aimed at the Racer’s head.

But with just one shot from Monkey Man, it wasn’t fully charged yet.

Ding ding ding ding ding!!

The Racer’s 30-round magazine was all aimed at my head.

At the same time, electricity was released from the energy cannon held by Monkey Man, starting to scorch my body.

Quickly decreasing HP.

Even in the slowed vision, it was easy to see the HP decreasing rapidly.

And the charging gauge wasn’t fully filled either.

But there’s no choice.

Seeing the HP decreasing rapidly before it was fully charged, it looked like I was going to die.

There’s no choice.

I have to shoot.

Bang!

Ding!

“Wow…”

In the end, I died to SOON-nim without even taking out one person.

But even though I died, I was rather impressed.

‘There’s a case like this.’

Sniper’s charging.

I was killed before filling the entire gauge.

This was definitely a strategy.

A strategy to check or defeat me from the opposing team.

The tank took my fully charged bullet with their body, and the dealers took advantage of that short moment to quickly get the kill.

In terms of time, it was only 1 second.

That was the time it took to kill me.

‘Is this what they call detail?’

Physical ability is important, but I felt an insurmountable wall in the pro’s game management.

As expected, pros are different.

Each and every one of them was devising strategies in real-time to respond to my aim.

Flexible thinking.

I realized that you can’t solve everything with physical ability in the world of professionals.

Well, it’s not a solo game, it’s a team game, so it’s natural.

But thanks to them?

‘Let’s try again.’

Thanks to them, I learned that a momentary mistake can determine victory or defeat.

So… let’s focus a little.

---

Meanwhile, the opposing team’s voice chat was very noisy.

“Hey! Assume Nanmi-nim will hit no matter what!”

“Okay.”

“We’ll hide, and the tank will ping Nanmi-nim’s location! This time, the Armored Soldier-nim should follow Danding and match their

movements! Just think of it as facing an aimbot!”

“Yes, sir!”

All the teammates who met Nanmi as the opposing team recognized it.

Nanmi will hit no matter what.

And also, hit with a speed that they cannot react to the moment they expose themself.

This can be really difficult from the opposing team’s perspective.

They couldn’t play properly because they were paying attention to Nanmi.

They have to expose their bodies to heal and deal damage, but that action itself couldn’t be done properly.

‘Really, how can a person’s reaction speed be like that?’

But there was no one who didn’t know that it was pure physical ability.

A truly terrifying reaction speed and accuracy.

They crush everything with physical ability, no matter the strategy.

Of course, that doesn’t mean there’s no way at all.

In fact, the strategy just now worked well enough.

Millennium’s main healer Milray shouted energetically.

“Guys. Let’s seriously try to stop Nanmi-nim’s winning streak!”

“Yeah! Let’s do it!”

“Okay! Let’s go!”

Just one thing.

We just need to target Nanmi-nim no matter what.

Just Nanmi-nim-

-I can see everything.

“!?”

That was the moment.

The moment the opposing sniper Nanmi-nim activated their ultimate.

Milray immediately reacted to that and shouted.

“Hey! They’re definitely going to climb the building with the hook! Catch them then!”

They activated their ultimate, but currently, all the teammates were hiding behind the wall.

We’ll know their location, but we won’t be able to shoot.

So there’s only one thing Nanmi-nim can do.

Use the sniper’s only mobility skill, the hook, to rise high and snipe.

But… contrary to expectations, Nanmi-nim didn’t use the hook.

‘…What is it?’

Then the Tank Danding shouted.

“Hey. Nanmi-nim is on the payload right now?”

“Huh? Ah!?”

We got tricked.

Nanmi-nim, who had been showing aggressive play based on their physical ability, was now being passive.

Even with the ultimate activated.

In other words, we were tricked in the mind game.

We thought that Nanmi-nim would play aggressively, trusting their aim with the ultimate activated.

We, who were hiding to avoid Nanmi-nim’s sight, were awkwardly being tricked.

However, this was not the time to worry about such awkwardness.

The situation itself was turning very difficult.

With the location revealed by the ultimate.

Since they didn’t use the hook, it was clear they were waiting for the right time.

“Hey, we have to stop the payload, so I’ll try to jump in.”

In this situation, Danding said.

We can’t keep letting the payload move.

Danding immediately threw their body towards the payload-

Bang! Ding!

“Ah, f*ck. Wait, wait.”

Danding, who was about to rush but was immediately hit in the head and hid behind the wall again.

They took critical damage in an instant, so if they rushed towards the enemy lines, they would die without even trying to stop it.

“Wow… how do they shoot the head as soon as you expose yourself?”

There, Milray thought.

‘Wait… could it be…’

Milray simulated it in their head several times.

At first, they were embarrassed by Nanmi-nim’s aim and thought, ‘Surely they won’t hit even this, right?’ But after seeing them hit, they were

convinced that they would hit no matter what and were playing accordingly.

Nanmi-nim’s aim is the same as an aimbot.

So no matter how much they think about it, there is no answer in the current situation where all the locations are known.

Danding said to their teammate, the Armored Soldier.

“Armored Soldier-nim, please put up a barrier first and jump in as the vanguard.”

“Yes, sir!”

But before Milray could stop them, the Armored Soldier was already flying towards the payload.

Following behind, Monkey Man Danding jumped and stuck to the payload.

If this happens, there’s no choice.

I have to expose myself slightly to heal-

Bang!!

“Ah.”

In the end, the situation unfolded exactly as they had predicted in their head.
