Chapter 46 : Deokchun Island

Deokchun Island

Wooooong!

For some reason, it felt like I kept watching, but this time, the car scene was a bit different.

A blue Lamborghini was rushing forward, escorted by eight black Gurumas sticking close like bodyguards.

Deokchun had millions of dollars provided by PajiJik, which was supporting Deokchun Island, as he was still the server admin and needed to maintain some dignity.

Thanks to that, he was able to hire bodyguards, acquire a sleek sports car, and even arm all the bodyguards with pistols while still having money left over.

There were a total of 32 streamers holding heavily modified pistols that looked like machine guns to anyone unfamiliar with firearms.

Among them, eight were highly skilled streamers who had reached at least Platinum rank in FPS games.

Moreover, the equipment provided to them alone cost tens of thousands of dollars—so in rough estimates, hadn’t they already spent all the money that 200 streamers would have earned today?

Of course, the equipment was provided only during the escort mission, and it was planned to be retrieved afterward for fairness.

So at this very moment, no matter who targeted Deokchun, it wouldn’t be an easy situation.

It definitely shouldn’t be.

Bang!

A gunshot rang out from somewhere.

If, at this point on the first day, a gun was fired without a silencer, there was only one person on the server who could have done it—Yuki.

And with the gunshot, the situation slowly began to change.

Screeeeech!!!

Crash!!!

The black bulletproof Guruma that was running ahead of Deokchun suddenly smashed into the guardrail.

The Guruma, unable to withstand the sudden and immense impact, ultimately…

Boom!!!

It exploded in a massive fireball and disappeared into the flames.

Deokchun hurriedly turned the steering wheel to swerve past the wreckage.

[siutuho has burned to death.]

[houtiri has burned to death.]

[ralqi has burned to death.]…

The kill logs appeared, showing the deaths of the eight streamers who had been in the car ahead.

Someone had precisely targeted the same spot on the windshield of the speeding bulletproof Guruma, killing the driver with a headshot.

What the fuck. How is this even possible?

Deokchun regretted approaching Yuki just to say something to her and accidentally hitting a cat.

He should have just walked instead of showing off his Lamborghini.

But belated regrets couldn’t change anything—just like the eight bodyguards who would never return.

Tap… Tap…

The burning Guruma remained visible in the rearview mirror as Deokchun sped away.

“…Holy shit. Guys, I think we picked the wrong RP.”

• You dumbass.
• Even if you run now, it’s forced labor camp time.
• Stick to the RP, lmao.
• Honestly, heading to the labor camp might be the better choice now.

“Sigh…”

Deokchun’s hands gripped the steering wheel tightly.

The pressure was enough to make it feel like the Lamborghini’s steering wheel would break.

But it was understandable.

A driver had been headshot through the same spot on the windshield of a bulletproof car moving at 90 km/h.

That was beyond the realm of skill—it was insanity.

Even as those thoughts raced through his mind, the car kept speeding forward.

He wasn’t just running away—he was being hunted.

Deokchun knew how to make this situation much more entertaining for the stream.

Instead of just feeling hopeless and regretful…

“Ah, fuck! Kiana!!!”

Becoming the perfect, wretched villain and struggling desperately would make it much more fun.

• That headshot just now was insane, lmao.
• Not even at close range, but with a pistol? And through the bulletproof Guruma’s windshield?
• Was Yuki always this good?
• It’s not just her aim. The fact that such an insane sharpshooter is specifically targeting Deokchun^^ is hilarious.

As not only Deokchun but also the chat reeled from the absurdity, Deokchun clenched his teeth.

Running to the airport and starting an all-out battle seemed like the best plan.

“Alright! Gotta fucking run for it. Full-speed sprint!”

• Damn, Deokchun, this is pathetic. How did it come to this?
• You were laughing three hours ago when you heard it was Yuki…
• Seriously, nothing ever goes right for this bastard Deokchun…

He shifted gears and stepped on the pedal.

The Lamborghini’s engine roared like an explosion, accelerating like crazy.

But Deokchun knew.

Speed alone would never let him escape from that woman.

And as expected, at that very moment—

Bang! Bang!

Gunshots rang out again.

Deokchun instinctively jerked the steering wheel, causing the car to swerve dangerously but stay on course.

But one of the two shots had struck the side window, leaving a thin crack.

‘What if that had hit me?’

He didn’t even want to imagine.

Without a bulletproof car, he would have died instantly.

“Everyone, form a line! Get into formation!”

[Got it. We gotta listen to our employer…]

[Uh… but aren’t we all gonna die?]

[Don’t worry. We can just walk to the airport anyway.]

Flag raised.

But damn, everyone was really staying in character.

• In a situation like this, anyone would be immersed.

As Deokchun shouted, the remaining streamers tried to reorganize their defensive formation.

But the balance was already broken.

With just two shots, Yuki had completely disrupted their formation.

As the bulletproof cars instinctively swerved away from her direction, the entire flow of traffic turned into chaos.

‘If this keeps up, we’re all dead.’

Only one option remained in Deokchun’s mind.

“Kill her! Kill Kiana Reeves!”

• Damn, Deokchun.
• Yo, Deokchun should be an actor.
• Lmao, this is so cringy.

Click!

One by one, the doors of the seven bulletproof cars swung open, and the bodyguards stepped out.

He had bought them bulletproof vests. He had bought them pistols.

For the first day, this was basically god-tier status.

[Alright. We’ll form a diamond formation…]

[Got it. We’ll surround our employer and slowly spread out.]

The bodyguards who had stepped out of the bulletproof cars quickly dispersed.

Carefully aiming their pistols in all directions, they seemed completely immersed in the situation.

“Spread out! Find where Yuki is and close in on her!”

• Uh???
• That’s harassment. I’m reporting you.
• And say Kiana, dumbass.

With Deokchun’s command, the armed streamers spread out across the road.

Originally, these people were just content creators, but armed with Deokchun’s money, they were now more formidable than any mercenary unit.

After all, as long as they got paid, even if they died as mercenaries, they were some of the toughest people around.

But…

‘Something’s wrong.’

Deokchun instinctively felt that something was off.

No, if Yuki could be pushed into a corner this easily, would she have been able to rack up kill logs like this from day one?

And at that moment, an eerie silence filled the air.

Bang!!

A gunshot echoed from the end of the road.

Just one shot.

But the impact of that single bullet was more intense than any barrage of machine-gun fire.

[veon72 has been shot in the head and died instantly.]

A streamer who had been confidently walking forward suddenly collapsed.

A bullet was lodged in his head. He had even been stepping side to side, doing that signature GTA movement.

Deokchun, genuinely startled beyond RP, shouted out.

“Wha… What the hell?!”

No one could pinpoint her location.

The bulletproof vehicles were supposed to be shields for the bodyguards, but instead, they had become obstacles that concealed Yuki.

Bang! Bang!

Two more shots. And two more instant death logs appeared.

[moi_88 has been shot in the head and died instantly.]

[zert has been shot in the head and died instantly.]

“Ah, this is… fuck…”

Deokchun understood.

Yuki wasn’t just running away.

She was systematically dismantling the entire formation that was closing in on her.

And in the next moment, a different kind of bullet flew through the air.

[Ah… an incendiary round…]

A veteran GTA streamer muttered under his breath.

BOOOOOM!

A vehicle hit by the incendiary round erupted into flames with a deafening explosion.

BOOM!

A massive fireball shot up, engulfing the road in flames.

And beyond the raging fire, a single silhouette stood.

Long black hair gleamed under the light, and a figure holding a pistol lowered her hand.

It was Yuki… No, it was Kiana Reeves.

She still held her gun with a calm expression, as if this entire situation was playing out in the palm of her hand.

[It’s been a while, Bang Deokchun. Did you enjoy your little chase?]

She walked out of the fire, a pistol in one hand.

Like a judge who had just risen from the depths of hell.

Click.

“Ah. Yeah! Now this is going to get a lot more fun, Kiana Reeves!”

Deokchun pulled out his Combat MG Mk II from inside his coat.

Let me emphasize—no one else on this server has bought a better gun than this.

Even as Deokchun made his move, Kiana Reeves simply smiled.

[Oh, finally stopped shaking like a leaf?]

Deokchun smirked and raised his gun.

“Then you better brace yourself too, Kiana. This gun—it’s the best in the server.”

At that moment—

BANG!

A loud gunshot rang out.

“Fuck!”

Instinctively, Deokchun squeezed his eyes shut, but he didn’t feel any pain.

• It was a blank round, lmao.
• Yeah, she probably didn’t want to waste her real bullets.
• Look at him flinch.

“Hey. Shut up… Wait. Where did she go?”

Yuki had disappeared.

The bodyguards had hesitated, failing to unleash a barrage of bullets in what could have been a cinematic moment.

Then, a short cry came from behind.

[Hey, what the—?!]

Bang!

A bodyguard’s head was blown off.

Kiana was already behind Deokchun, standing atop a metal structure beside the road.

She casually twirled the gun in her hand.

[One down.]

She whispered.

Then, she disappeared behind another cover.

A moment later, a second bodyguard fell.

“Shit! Spread out! Take cover!”

Before Deokchun could even finish his command—

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Shots flew from the darkness, taking down bodyguards one by one.

Between structures, under guardrails, behind the pillars of the overpass—

Kiana seemed to have mapped out every possible movement in advance.

Her movements were flawless.

[Three down.]

A third bodyguard clutched his head and collapsed.

Fifteen people down already—nearly half the streamers had fallen.

Deokchun gritted his teeth.

‘At this rate, we’re all going to die!’

“We’re running out of bullets anyway! Just rush her and kill her!”

[Ah…!]

[Oh, that’s right. Kiana Reeves only has one magazine left.]

[If it’s a standard mag, she’s fired around sixteen shots… Oh. That means she’s out.]

Pfft.

A quiet chuckle rang out in voice chat, a smooth and alluring voice.

[Yeah. I’m out of bullets…]

Sching.

Though she was unseen, the sound of a blade being drawn echoed.

[But I have this.]

Oh.

Fuck.

Deokchun realized he was utterly screwed.

And that realization came far too late.
