Chapter 117
“You idiot, do you not have eyes?”
This was Falcon Eye’s usual style. He didn’t sugarcoat his words and had high standards. He didn’t hesitate to curse if necessary.
His streamer nickname ‘Falcon Eye’ was rumored to come from his ‘spicy eyes’, as in his sharp and scathing critiques.
“Anyway, these idiots in the community seem to carry their eyes just for show. Or maybe, they don’t have brains?”
– He’s back!
– That’s it, lOLOLOL
– He’s always like this when reviewing Suhyuk, lMAO
“Come on, folks. It’s not just that I’m spicy. These guys genuinely lack both eyes and brains. And who are the people upvoting this garbage? If any of you are here, raise your hands.”
– Hands
– 🖐️
– Feet
– 🤚 🤚 🤚
– 🤬 🤬 🤬
“Manager, ban anyone who cursed. Those who raised their hands, kindly leave. You don’t deserve to watch my stream.”
Falcon Eye’s spice didn’t spare even his viewers. Initially, this level of provocation caused backlash, but it had since become an established part of his persona.
“I’ll explain why I’m saying this in the review. It’s not just venting; it’s the core of today’s review.”
Click-
The screen shifted. Showing the Players Channel, it displayed a highlight reel of Suhyuk’s gameplay.
“The full version is too long, so we’ll use this new video. Don’t worry; I got permission in advance.”
The actual review began.
“… Go to hell!”
The beginning of the trial.
The scenario titled ‘Warrior’s Qualification’ started playing on the stream.
“The start is a bit random. Suddenly, he’s told to fight some weird warrior.”
Boom!
The initial scenario ended almost too easily.
“A piece of cake, right? Just from this, you can see that Suhyuk’s level far exceeds the 5th floor. One-hit kills, seriously?”
– It was easy though
– Can’t argue with that
– He hasn’t lost a single fight since the 4th floor, it’s expected LOLOLOL
The stream soon moved to the scene with Viola’s entrance.
“There’s no need for that. He’s not our enemy.”
– She’s here
– The big moment
– Big entrance, whoa
– I’m dying, noona!
The chat quickly intensified.
The Valkyrie of Asgard, Viola, had appeared.
“Honestly, I was surprised. A Valkyrie on the 5th floor? The scale suddenly got huge.”
Even in significant trials, gods-like beings such as Valkyries rarely appeared. While Valkyries weren’t widely known, their presence alone indicated that the scale of the 5th floor wasn’t ordinary.
Moreover,
“To the one who possesses the power of lightning, why are you here?”
The Valkyrie treated Suhyuk with utmost respect. Falcon Eye swiftly added his commentary.
“This ‘power of lightning’ is the core of this trial. It’s also the reason Suhyuk was given this test.”
– Is it because of the Thunder Cave?
Snap-.
“Lee Suhyuk Panty Hyung, very precise.”
Falcon Eye pointed out a viewer’s chat while snapping his fingers.
“Those who have watched Lee Suhyuk’s stream will know. The reward from the Thunder Cave. That was the key that connected to this trial.”
The conversation between Viola and Su-Hyuk was quite interesting even without any action. Especially as stories that could attract viewers’ interest continued to flow from Viola’s mouth.
The mission of Asgard. Muspelheim. The treasure desired by two gigantic forces. It was a grand scale, hard to imagine as just a trial on the 5th floor.
But then.
“It’s strange, isn’t it? It’s just the 5th floor, but why is the difficulty this high?”
It was a common question among all the viewers. It seemed excessive for a trial that was supposed to be merely on the 5th floor.
However.
“Don’t be fooled. The scale is grand, but the difficulty isn’t high.”
As if to respond to that statement.
“Then, should we retrieve that?”
“No. That’s impossible.”
Viola answered Su-Hyuk’s question.
“Seeing this, it’s clear, right? Doesn’t the Valkyrie outright say it? ‘It’s impossible.’”
The video continued, and Falcon Eye matched his comments to its pace.
“From the beginning, this trial wasn’t about reclaiming the Heart of Thunder. That’s probably something for much later, above the 5th floor.”
An abnormal route. Understanding that explanation wasn’t hard.
Lee Suhyuk had taken such trials before.
『’Falcon Eye Panty Thief’ has donated 100 points.』
‘Didn’t he get the lightning like that?’
The lightning. A reward obtained through an improbable route of defeating the giant tribe’s leader. Lee Suhyuk’s trials always deviated significantly from the predetermined path.
“That’s right, that’s it!”
By now, the video had fast-forwarded to the meeting with the new Valkyrie, Belveim.
“If it were originally, they would meet a new Valkyrie here and safely escort Viola out of the city… Something like that.”
Swoosh-.
The video quickly transitioned to a battle scene between Lee Suhyuk and Belveim.
“The trial became skewed because Lee Suhyuk uncovered the Valkyrie’s betrayal.”
-Screw it, I’ll go my own way LOLOLOL
-He’s a real tough guy
-He never follows orders LOLOLOL
Lee Suhyuk’s trials were unpredictable. Rather than following the given trial, he always sought the best possible outcome within it. And that was precisely why viewers were captivated by Lee Suhyuk’s streams.
“Uncovering the Valkyrie’s betrayal and defeating her. That was the route to obtaining the legendary-grade reward, the Heart of Thunder. And Lee Suhyuk was the one who pioneered that path.”
Bang-!
He punched the desk once and raised his voice.
“But what about these idiots? Struggling from the 5th floor? Do you morons really think this looks like the real 5th floor difficulty?”
Without even glancing at the video, Falcon Eye lashed out at the viewers.
“And frankly, it’s not even struggling. What about any of it looks like a struggle? Huh?”
-Oh… I get it…
-Calm down, hyung…
-I just got here and I don’t know what’s going on, but I’m super sorry
-I can’t tell if this is spicy or mild flavor
The stream wasn’t much different from Falcon Eye’s usual style. He was unhesitant in his criticism, and if necessary, he didn’t refrain from swearing.
Speaking without a filter was exactly Falcon Eye’s style. But this stream was slightly different. Usually, Falcon Eye’s harsh criticism was focused on the player, the subject of the review.
However, in this stream, the target of Falcon Eye’s ‘spicy flavor’ were the community users who were undermining Lee Suhyuk.
“Fire Surge-!”
In the meantime, Lee Suhyuk’s test was entering a new phase.
The final chapter of the test.
It was the stage where demons of Muspelheim swarmed.
“Ah, ah… Demons…”
Silvas, the knight, was frozen in place, unable to properly respond to the appearance of the demons. The walls crumbled under the giant’s fist, and flames roared.
“Climb up! Quickly!”
“Come this way!”
It was utter chaos.
There were at least dozens of visible demons in front of them. Each one of them was strong enough that only Viola could barely stand against them.
“Seriously, look at this. How could this be a level 5 difficulty?”
『’NostrilPimple’ has donated 100 points.』
『No way, that was all a big lie』
At the timely donation of the negative message, Falcon Eye narrowed his eyes.
“Yeah. It was a lie.”
-Wait, that’s a lie?
-Yeah, it was all fake LOLOLOL
-One demon was just messing around with illusions LOLOLOL
-Can’t they get rid of those spoiler jerks?
The sudden donation message made the latter part of the video play a bit earlier, but it wasn’t bad. Thanks to it, he could more smoothly continue with the necessary comments.
“But it has to be that way. If it were real, it would be an impossible test from the start.”
That was something Lee Suhyuk had said as well.
“This is exactly what impressed me about Lee Suhyuk in this test. His control and skills were already known.”
Falcon Eye quickly skipped the video. And at the prepared point, the video stopped, revealing the scenery of the holy ground where countless demons had disappeared.
“The real one is that.”
-?????
-What the heck is with the skip
-I was enjoying that
The viewers who were engrossed in the video expressed their dissatisfaction.
“Those who want to watch it, go to Lee Suhyuk’s channel and watch separately. I’ll continue my review.”
One of the purposes of this stream was to promote Lee Suhyuk’s video channel. Most of Falcon Eye’s stream revenue came from live viewer donations, so sharing that influence had its effects.
“After all, whether it’s Asgard or Muspelheim, isn’t it impossible for them to intervene significantly here? That’s what the system has set.”
“You killed Belveim, using this guy.”
“A demon with illusion abilities. If that demon was hiding something…”
Lee Suhyuk’s detective show.
And the final touch was the last comment that only the viewers could hear.
“Above all, there is no such thing as an impossible test to pass.”
Clap, clap-clap.
In the end, Falcon Eye applauded.
“This is confidence.”
– There’s no such thing as an impossible test to pass.
– That was a saying synonymous with Blue Eyes’ legend, Lee Suhyuk.
Many streamers who followed Lee Suhyuk’s concept often mimicked his words. But among the many concept streamers, none truly understood what Lee Suhyuk meant.
No.
To be precise, there was no one who could actually put it into practice.
“It’s the confidence that comes from the certainty that nothing I can’t do will ever appear in the test.”
That’s something you can only understand when you have that level of skill.
“But the creepiest part is that it’s true. Wasn’t it? Every test that Lee Suhyuk couldn’t clear was an illusion.”
Lee Suhyuk’s video had reached its highlight. The reason for Belveim’s betrayal. Viola’s fury and the Valkyrie falling into illusion again. And the one-on-one matchup between Lee Suhyuk and the demon.
“Do you think I only know how to use illusions?”
“I don’t care.”
Boom-!
A black lightning bolt struck down over Lee Suhyuk’s head. The owner of the lightning. It was a technique synonymous with Lee Suhyuk.
“No matter what you know how to do.”
And at that moment.
“Now, I’ll conclude with the final review.”
Click-.
Falcon Eye paused the video there.
“There’s no such thing as a test I can’t pass. That confidence, certainty, and insight all coming together in his play.”
-???
-Wait, a moment
-Why stop here???
-Falcon-hyung???
Question marks and frustrated messages quickly filled the chat. The one-on-one matchup between Lee Suhyuk using his signature lightning and the demon of Muspelheim was the highlight of this test.
However.
“Lee Suhyuk isn’t just good at fighting. As a ‘player’ in the truest sense, he has the ability to control the test itself. This is my final review for today.”
Falcon Eye shamelessly ignored all the complaints and concluded the review. And concluding the review meant.
“Sorry guys, that’s it for today’s stream.”
It meant the review content stream was over.
-What the heck
-This is too much
-Are you kidding?
-Going to join the Suhyuk squad? Will I really go?
Falcon Eye laughed delightfully at their intense reactions.
“Falcon-bye~.”
