I brought the cursor to the weapon. However, I couldn’t press it and my hand was trembling, when Banye reached out to click it just like that.
I was horrified and avoided Banye’s gesture.
“W-wait a minute.”
This was practically gambling. No, actually, if you calculated the probability, it was worse than gambling.
I sighed, caught my breath, and brought the mouse cursor over. And then…… I locked the weapon.
When you lock a weapon, you can’t enhance or sell it until you unlock it. And once you lock it, it takes three days, meaning 72 hours, until you can unlock it, so enhancing it right away is impossible.
Watching me like that, Banye clicked his tongue.
“Did you chicken out?”
I was upset at the blatantly provocative tone, but I put down the mouse and shouted.
“Yeah, I chickened out! It’s better than losing a perfectly good weapon, isn’t it?”
“Why do you think you’ll lose it?”
“Because the probability of it breaking is high!”
“Throw away that defeatist mindset.”
I snorted at Banye’s words. No matter what Banye said, the weapon was already locked, and even if I unlocked it right away, I couldn’t enhance it for the next 72 hours.
“That’s enough, let’s hurry up and film the video.”
“Mm…….”
Banye acted reluctant, but without being too stubborn, he nodded.
“Okay.”
“Good!”
I personally turned on the laptop for Banye.
In my opinion, if Banye kept uploading videos like this, it was only a matter of time before he had more subscribers than Kwon Dajeong. After all, Banye had much better skills than someone like Sisi.
Even if he’s acting indifferent like that now…….
‘Once the NewTube subscribers and likes increase, Banye will gain momentum too, right?’
“Hm-mm~”
Thinking about the future paved with a flower path ahead, I naturally hummed.
Banye, who had been staring at me like that, turned on my computer next to him.
“Huh? Why that?”
“Let’s do it together today?”
“Me?”
“It’s good to have one more person appear when filming a video.”
“Mm…….”
I think a solo play video would be better though.
That’s what I thought, but if Banye wanted that, there was no need to stubbornly refuse. I nodded in agreement.
“Hyung, do you have two headsets?”
“Why?”
“I think we’ll be able to concentrate better if we wear them.”
“Ah, I do.”
Banye must be trying to make a proper video. I quickly found the headsets with an excited heart and handed them to Banye.
Banye logged in with the Aang character and asked me.
“Where should we go?”
“Somewhere you’re confident in…….”
“I’m confident everywhere.”
The way he said it so casually was so fucking cool that my heart pounded for a moment. Ah, damn, later when someone asks me ‘Where are you best at?’ I should answer like that too…….
“Then, um…… Ah!”
But before that, I had to choose which dungeon to run first, so I took out my smartphone and searched for Sisi’s NewTube.
Then I checked the strategy video he uploaded most recently.
“Let’s go to Scream Cave!”
“Scream Cave?”
“Sisi uploaded a Scream Cave strategy video. Wouldn’t it be good if we clear it faster than this?”
That really seems like a good idea…….
At my words, Banye stared at me with a strange gaze. Then he sighed and shook his head from side to side.
“Hyung……. You really are clingy with Sisi.”
“Wh-who’s being clingy! He’s the one who’s clingy!”
“Your obsession…….”
Banye trailed off his words, shrugged his shoulders, and sat down without saying more.
I was a bit annoyed at Banye for saying I was obsessed with Sisi, but it was a topic where only I would lose if I kept digging into it, so I shut my mouth.
And just when we were about to enter Scream Cave.
“Ah.”
“Why?”
“Let’s practice once before we go?”
Banye was already really good, but if we practiced, an even better video would be filmed. As expected, Banye decided to do it properly.
I nodded proudly.
“Okay.”
And I started running the dungeon with Banye.
* * *
After Banye went to the dining table alone to edit because he said it was distracting if someone was watching, I logged into Banyecredit and chatted with the guild members.
When we’d been chatting for a while, Banye suddenly appeared in the guild chat.
[Guild][Aang] Uploaded
[Guild][Aang] Aang2
[Guild][Anajokiwojo] The title is so sincere
[Guild][Suckeot3] Going to watch
I also quickly went to watch the video.
We ran Scream Cave a total of three times, and the first time was full of mistakes because I was relaxed thinking we were practicing…… But the second and third times, I ran it pretty well too.
So I was looking forward to seeing which attempt’s video he uploaded…….
“Wh-what is this?”
From the start of the video, I could see myself getting hit by the first attack from a monster and flying away.
I never made such a stupid mistake in the second and third runs, so this was definitely the video filmed on the first attempt.
“I think he uploaded the wrong one……!”
When I refreshed, the view count had gone up as if someone had already watched it.
I played the video with a sour expression. And as the video progressed, my expression rotted more and more.
[Wow, amazing…… He’s really good…….]
[Incredible…… You’re really a genius.]
“…….”
My voice ceaselessly praising Banye was recorded as is.
Moreover, that wasn’t the only part where my voice came out.
[Aah! Aaaah!]
[I-I’m dying. Banye! Save me!]
[Aaaah!]
……Even the part where I screamed while messing up in the first round was fully recorded.
Moreover, that mess-up was quite embarrassing.
Banye catching the incoming monster in one shot and immediately moving to the next space. And I tried to do the same by using a skill after seeing that, but I got hit by the monster flying in after jumping and fell straight down.
Because it alternately showed Banye’s cool moves and me acting like an idiot, the skill gap stood out even more.
I huffed and ran to confront Banye. Whether I came or not, Banye was looking at the monitor.
Feeling ominous at his face strangely holding back laughter, I quickly approached and looked…… There was already a guild chat full of [ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ] from guild members who had checked the video.
[Guild][Anajokiwojo] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ fuck this is so funny
[Guild][Neda] This is the funniest video I’ve seen this month
[Guild][Suckeot3] Ahㅋㅋㅋㅋ so this is why Banye drags around a puppy
[Guild][Bokgak] ㅋㅋ
[Guild][Neda] I should try going to a dungeon together next time too
[Guild][Anajokiwojo] So fucking noisy though
[Guild][Anajokiwojo] But it does seem fun to drag around ㅇㅇ
Unlike Banye who at least pretended to hold back his laughter, the guild members had nothing to be reserved about.
My face turned bright red as I smacked Banye’s shoulder and back.
“What is this, what did you upload!”
“You told me to upload it.”
“I said it was a practice video!”
No wonder he didn’t say a single word when filming the first video! I thought it was just because he was concentrating, but he was planning this from that moment!
My teeth ground together.
“Delete it right now!”
“If I’m going to delete it, I’ll delete everything and won’t upload videos anymore.”
Banye smirked and made an extreme move.
I was so upset that my lips trembled. No, but it’s too precious to delete……. In my eyes, unable to tell him to delete it, the guild members’ chat came in again.
[Guild][Suckeot3] Banye plays way better than usual
[Guild][Suckeot3] Is it because he has a pet following him ㅋ
[Guild][Anajokiwojo] Well, yeah, there’s a scrub next to him as a comparison ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
I snatched Banye’s laptop and struck the keyboard with fury.
[Guild][Aang] Stop
[Guild][Aang] Don’t tease
[Guild][Haeyam] The main one is hereyam
I tried to stop them while pretending to be Banye, but I was caught immediately.
Once again, laughter poured out.
[Guild][Neda] Enjoyed watching it……
[Guild][Suckeot3] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[Guild][Bokgak] ㅋ
[Guild][Nanneomukeoeyeowo] It’s funny ㅋㅋ
Even Nanneomukeoeyeowo, who I’d somewhat trusted, said that.
I was upset and hit! Banye’s back again, but Banye silently took the hits while still smirking. I was suspicious to the point of wondering if he earned money every time I was humiliated.
To me like that, Banye went one step further and asked teasingly.
“Why aren’t you writing on the bulletin board today?”
“…….”
“You usually rush right over to write, but you’re not writing today.”
“Would you write it if you were me!”
Banye ended up getting hit by me one more time and giggled. The curved eyes were pretty, but it was also true that I was pissed off.
Even after getting hit by me, Banye said things like “If hyung won’t write it, I’ll write it,” making me angry, and finally after I sulked and went into my room, he followed me and pretended to appease me. But he absolutely wouldn’t take down that damn video.
However…….
On the third day after that video was uploaded. Suddenly, I received a message from Sisi.
