Chapter 8 – 8. Corporal Punishment (3)

‘It was close.’

I secretly let out a sigh of relief.

Despite using the physical coaching buff (small), the score was 1:4.
Considering that yesterday’s score was 4 to 1, each other’s scores were reversed in just one day.

‘All strategies don’t work now.’

The reason was very simple.
Because you’ve used all available strategies.

Surprisingly, Ryu Seo-yoon got used to one-on-one combat.
It’s only been a day, and no amount of embarrassing strategies I’ve come up with have worked.

Then, naturally, the aspect of her battles led to a physical fight, and her Masters, who had the physicality of her tier, couldn’t beat her.

If you use the physical coaching buff (middle), the story might be different, but it was impossible because you couldn’t use an item worth 10 points at a time every day.

“Unfortunately, you lost the last round?”

After coming out of the capsule, Ryu Seo-yoon said with a triumphant attitude.
Seeing that proud expression made me want to sell.

Controlling my expression, I said bluntly.

“From tomorrow, we will have a mirror match with a different character.”
“Yes?! Why? Is it because I win?”

Her embarrassed voice.
Yes this is it
She calmed down the corners of her lips and continued her explanation.

“Originally, the purpose of the 1v1 mirror match was to broaden the range of Seoyoon’s character. Is she going to do only Artemis for the rest of her life?”
“……That’s not it.”

After doing it a few times, I was able to instinctively know when to sell.
Right now was the perfect timing.

“As a pro gamer, you basically need to know how to handle all the characters. There are only a few characters that even pro gamers who say the character range is narrow can’t do, but like Seoyoon-ssi, I can’t do all but one. You won’t like me for beating me, you should see more than that.”
“Ugh, yes… “

[I sold Ryu Seo-yoon. Growth rate increases by 20%.]

[Acquired 2 selling points.]

Her face blushed at my open accusations.
Seeing her yearning for such a pretty and cute woman made her feel a strange pleasure.

She just had to put up with it.
If even the corners of her mouth went up, you could catch a shady thought.
She had to show off selling for the sake of her education only.
The moment she reveals her selfishness, she loses her trust.

Looking around her, she saw the other team members with disgruntled looks on their faces.
It seems that you are offended by my high-level remarks.
That’s right, a coach who openly makes personal attacks can’t look good.

As a result, even if it is an action that helps Ryu Seo-yoon grow, to someone who doesn’t know, it will only be seen as something that her bad-tempered coach wants for a ridiculous reason.

But I didn’t care.
Now that I care about my image, I have crossed the river of no return.

“Now let’s start team practice.”

The relationship between Seoyoon Ryu and I couldn’t get any worse.
On the surface, it seemed to follow my guidance method, but in the end, I wouldn’t be able to endure the current situation where I was just insulting and hitting.

That’s why it was necessary to give carrots too.

I was lost in her thoughts as I watched Ryu Seo-yoon enter her capsule.

###

After all the evening practice.
Unlike usual, she called her teammates together.

And handed out two sheets of paper to them.

“What is this? Coach?”

Baek Ha-yan, a supporter who was kind to me, asked me.
She is the only one who speaks in a friendly tone among the players who look at her with contempt even when I touch her. She was a player

“The first paper was written by myself.”

I looked at the paper in my hand.
It was the same content as the first paper they had.

“This is an analysis of ‘Arena’ game data from the past few days.”

Arena is a sensual yet logical game.
Sensibly avoiding attacks and matching skills are the most important elements in game play, but logical elements such as character up/down due to patches, meta changes, and combinations between characters cannot be ignored.

Of all the pro teams in the world, there is not one that doesn’t analyze the meta.
Of course, that doesn’t mean professional players don’t do meta-analysis themselves.

Most professional teams in the first division have several coaches, and they themselves analyze the meta to devise strategies, or even have a separate strategy analyst.

To them, games are no longer something to play and enjoy.

The paper I handed out to them was a kind of meta-analysis.
It is a report that summarizes which characters in each line have a good win rate, which items are preferred, which combinations are attracting attention, and even my opinions according to them.

The players looked at my report for a while and didn’t say anything.

“Is the Titan’s ‘Ogre Power Gauntlet’ not very effective? I’ve been going a lot lately…”

At that time, top laner Kang Yul asked a question.
She was so quiet and silent that I didn’t expect her to come forward and ask.
I answered briefly.

“It’s not bad, but it’s not an item that Mr. Kang Yul should go for as a sun item.”

The Ogre Power Gauntlet is a good item that increases your HP and ATK at the same time.
It is known to be more efficient than other items, and if you purchase it as the first item, it is more stable, so tank type characters often choose it.

However, at least I felt that it was an item that did not fit our team’s top laner, Kang Yul.

“Kang Yul-ssi, if you play Titan, the first item should be offensive rather than defensive.”
“Why?”
“Our team already has a mid laner playing defensively… “

I said, looking at her eyes hidden in her shaggy hair.

“Because Kang Yul-ssi suits aggressive play better.”
“……”

Swipe, she avoids my gaze.

As she moved between the teams seven times, she was always the one who only played a defensive role.
However, she had a higher win rate when aggressive taking characters.

‘Perhaps her previous teams her didn’t let her pick a character with her carry power.’

It’s not that the other teams did n’t recognize her gem her, which is her her.
Unless she is overwhelmingly better at playing offensive characters than defensive characters, most of the players with low skills like her are just given a character with a sense of stability.

Not all players can carry.
The rest had to play supportive characters, and there were no exceptions for players with inferior physical abilities like her.

“Aha, each line has a different comment.”

Baek Ha-yan, who had sneaked a look at someone else’s paper, said.

As she said, I wrote comments for each player that matched their preferences to her.
These were not unconditionally correct answers, but I hoped that they would be helpful in setting a direction even a little.

“If you haven’t read it yet, watch the rest later and look at the second piece of paper.”

I awakened their spirits, which had been concentrating for a long time.
Taking their eyes off the paper, they busily moved their hands.
And some of the girls couldn’t hide their surprised faces when they saw the second piece of paper.

“This is the tournament we are going to go to.”

On the paper, the words ‘Before the Fall of the Nuclear Arena’ were written in an old-fashioned font.
Overall, it was a sloppy and crude design, but this seemed to be the concept.
It is a so-called minor tournament.

“Hosted by Streamer Hackgu… It is a complete amateur competition.”

Some of the players seemed to be disappointed.
In particular, Ryu Seo-yoon could not hide his regretful feelings his openly.

It was a very low level tournament for her goals she had.

But I think this competition is just right for our team’s level.
The team rank is also tough, but it was greedy to hope to beat other teams that came together properly.

“Competition! It’s so nice to finally have a competition!”

Baek Ha-yan, on the other hand, seemed to be happy with the fact that he was just participating in the competition.
Looking at her smiling face her, I smiled involuntarily, but I held it in.

‘I can’t laugh yet’

For efficient selling, the atmosphere could not be relieved already.
I managed to manage my expression her in no time, and I jumped up from my seat.

“Baek Ha-yeon. Do you enjoy going to competitions?”
“Ah… Yes. I’m sorry, shouldn’t I just have fun?”
“You know.”

He uttered a lot of swearing words to her, who was very scared, and put her love her in her heart her.

“With Mr. Hayan’s skills, he will surely become a burden, but are you laughing now? It’s a board where you have to practice while reducing sleep!”
“Ah, ah… Sorry!”
“It’s not about being sorry. If you fail in this competition, it’s 50 percent, no, at least 80 percent, Baek Ha-yan’s fault. Because Mr. Hayan is the worst in our team.”
“Uh.. Ugh… Sorry… !”

[I sold Baek Ha-yeon. Growth rate increases by 15%.]

[Baek Ha-yeon’s obedience has increased by 5.]

[You have acquired 1 selling point.]

After pushing her her, she turned her head to look at the rest of her team.
The team members desperately started doing other things to avoid eye contact with me.

Of course, I didn’t mean to go smoothly just because I was avoiding it.
I took a picture of Ryu Seo-yoon as the second property.

“Mr. Seoyoon.”
“After… Why again…?”
“You were very disappointed because it was not a high-level competition, right?”
“Ah… No… There is nothing we can do about it at our level.”
“No. You can be honest. From my point of view, it is a low-level competition.”

At my words, Ryu Seo-yoon’s eyebrows rose slightly.
When I looked at her with her own soft expression on her own her, the girl who wanted everything at this time poured out her dissatisfaction her.

“To be honest… I don’t like it. Nuclear… It’s a broadcast that Jammins watch.”

Of course, I also wanted this time. It was the right time to sell.

“Since Seoyoon-ssi is at that level, it can’t be helped.”
“……”
“The level Jammin sees. If you play against the pros now, it will feel like twisting a child’s wrist to them.”
“…But, when I play solo lang, I match a lot with pros, and that much…”
“Write… “
“……”

When she showed that her heart was uncomfortable, her voice her went in.

“I’ve been told many times that solo rank and team games are completely different concepts. Ryu Seo-yoon in Team Game is literally Jammin. If you ban Artemis there, it will go down to the level of an infant.”

When I said it sarcastically, she blushed.

[I sold Ryu Seo-yoon. Growth rate increases by 20%.]

[Acquired 2 selling points.]

Well, the points and growth rates are sweet.

Nodding her head, I looked at them.

“Then, let’s all go in and rest after some individual practice. If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to sleep with that skill!”

They silently keep their mouths shut.
I yelled.

“Uh huh, won’t you answer me?”
“Yes…”

Their voices were heard, exhausted.

###

Today, after her private practice her, Ryu Seo-yoon came to visit.
Unfortunately, she only had one shot, and she was able to hit her calf.

“If Artemis goes 1v1 tomorrow, the score will definitely be 5:0.”

She pulled up her sweatpants in a rather confident voice.
Unlike the first day, his confident attitude her was cute.

I said in a slightly calm voice.

“It’s a meaningless score. Except for Artemis, all ADs are out of stock.”
“……I just did it. I am in a good mood today.”
“It’s a pity that I only hit one. I’ll be more alert if I get hit several times…”
“Hey, it’s okay. In the future, more than three generations will not fit.”

Suddenly, Ryu Seo-yoon seemed to have no objection to being slapped on her calf.
It was never something that happened because the two of us got along better.

The miasma in her eyes her.
It was because I clearly showed my will to make a 5-0 score and beat me with excitement.

The reason she became more cooperative than yesterday was probably because she realized it too.

That I’m serious about coaching.

And I had a vague expectation that if I just did what I said, I would be able to change myself who was really a one-character monster.

You must have felt it enough after experiencing one-on-one with me.

Anyway, now when I should be focusing on the corporal punishment, I turned my attention to her calves.
Her calves were stained a lot red because of her education.
I brought the cane to her trembling calf her.

[Road of Pleasure

A coach’s cane is filled with love!
It is a cane that gives subtle pleasure instead of pain.

20 points]

It was an item she had purchased before she entered her room.
A demonstration ceremony of a newly purchased expensive item.
My hands were shaking with anticipation.

“Now, wait a minute! Please hit me gently this time. It’s just one.”
“If you get it right, you’ll feel good about it too.”
“I’m not a pervert, so… “

Match!

The cane of pleasure fell on the red marks.
She lifts and lowers her pouting heels.
And a sharp gaze glaring at me.
Flushed face.

“What makes you feel good… “
“Everything is beating Seoyoon-ssi to make it better.”
“Heh, that’s it.”

Blinding her eyes, she pulled down her sweatpants and hurried out of her room.
Putting down the cane of pleasure, I tilted my head.

‘Isn’t that a good item? Well, if you use it once and see the effect, it’s a scam.’

I remembered her reaction to her, which was more blunt than I thought.
I fumbled with the cane for some reason.
