Chapter 84 – 84. Hell Training (3)

Stairs in the emergency exit.
There is an elevator in the practice room building, so it was a space that was not used well.
Thanks to that, Han Yuna, the mid laner of Battle Angels, often used this place when she wanted to rest.

‘After… Now I can catch my breath.’

Almost half a year has passed since she joined the Battle Angels.
She’s had a lot going on during that time, but she always shied away from her team her, so it was a relatively peaceful day for me.

Of course, compared to other gaming teams, she was eventful at least that much.
The coach who harasses them every day, and the team members who are suspicious even at first glance.

Even recently, the coach was extending his evil hand to Kang Yul, who was on the quiet side.

‘I’m choking.’

Just being in the practice room made her chest feel tight and she wanted to shout.

I felt like I couldn’t stand it anymore after being with a coach who verbally assaulted his teammates every day.

Fortunately, she was cursed once while the other team members were cursed 10 times.

‘…I want to hear your voice, Doyun-ah.’

Today, I thought of her childhood friend her, Nam Do-yoon.

The man who is the reason she became an idol and the reason she became a pro gamer.

She wanted to become an excellent pro gamer herself one day and stand next to him, but it didn’t seem easier than when she challenged the idol.
She was full of talent in singing, dancing, and her looks her, but she was so weak when it came to games.

‘Are you sleeping already?’

Han Yuna fiddled with her cellphone, keeping her silent.
About an hour had passed since she texted Nam Do-yoon.
There is still no reply, perhaps because it is time for her to practice privately.

‘Shall I call you? No, I must be busy… ‘

They hadn’t even been dating yet, but because of her distance her, she felt a little more affectionate than in the past when they played in the same town.

Hanyu I entered her former career search site through her cell phone her.
She also searched all of Nam Do-yoon’s accounts that she knew.

‘Everything is offline… ‘

Nam Do-yoon was not playing games.
If so, are you in a meeting? Or during a dinner party with teammates? If not, am I going to bed early?

‘Let’s make a phone call.’

Han Yu-na finally could n’t stand it and picked up her cell phone her.

Turrrrrrr…
Turrrrrrr…

The cell phone connection tone rings quietly.
It wasn’t until after the time that I had to think about whether to hang up or not that I heard a man’s voice.

“…Hello?”
“Yes, Doyoon.”
“Uh. What’s up?”

It was a dry man’s tone, but only then did a smile come back to Han Yuna’s lips her.

She said in a tone full of laughter.

“No, it’s just that I didn’t see any text messages and didn’t reply. What were you doing?”
“Me? … Just this and that.”
“Hmm… Weren’t you doing something weird?”
“No!”
“Cuckoo… “

‘How long can we be in a relationship like this?’

The relationship between him and her, which started when he was 5 years old, has continued until now, when he is 22 years old.
Han Yu-na and Nam Do-yoon, who are good-looking women, have been asked countless times, ‘Are you dating?’

Even Nam Do-yoon is very busy these days because of his professional gamer activities his, so it’s not easy to meet him.
That was also one of the reasons Han Yuna became a pro gamer.

‘If I can stand by your side and play games someday, then I’ll make a confession first.’

“Your voice sounds very tired.”
“Yes. My grades haven’t been very good lately, so I’m practicing hard.”
“That’s right~ You’ll need my Pat Pat!”
“Am I a boy? Why are you patting?”
“I did not know? My Pat Pat has the power to cheer me up!”
“What the. Kuk-kuk.”

After her unpoetic arguing, there was a moment of silence between him and her.
The awkward silence made her inadvertently speak her true intentions of her.

“When should we meet?”
“Well… Sorry. I’m a bit busy these days.”

‘It’s off-season right now.’

Han Yu-na barely managed to get her thoughts out of her mouth her.
However, she could n’t hide the sadness in her voice.

She said in a slightly sad voice.

“Is not it… You are always busy tell me when you have time My mom wants to see you too.”
“Okay. If you’re meeting the lady, you’ll have to make time for what you don’t have.”
“What is it, Kick? He said he didn’t have time earlier.”
“I don’t have time to meet you, hehe.”

It was obviously a joke, but why do I feel sad?
Han Yuna, she said in a cold tone without realizing it.

“I’m glad. Actually, I’m a bit busy too. Let’s eat later.”
“Okay. What was your team like? It’s before the promotion. I have to work hard~”
“Yes. Right. So you practice hard too. You can catch up with me~”

After hanging up her phone, she thought for a moment.
Is it because of Nam Do-yoon’s attitude of treating himself like a true friend throughout the phone call?
In the old days, she used to get energized just by hearing voices, but now she’s not very energized.

‘…Should I practice too?’

We have a very important event ahead of us, the promotion match.
Actually, this is not the time to be like this.

Han Yuna trudged back to the practice room.
Just in time, there were flowers of laughter blooming in the practice room.

“Leader, you look really good!”
“I’m kind of embarrassed…”
“You’re so pretty, why are you shy!”

The topic of conversation was Kang Yul, who suddenly changed his hair to a bob.
When her usual messy hair her became neatly bobbed, even her gloomy image her changed 180 degrees, and her fairy her was no longer there.

How unconventional that transformation was, she even drew attention to Han Yu-na, who was on the outside in the team.

“Sister, it suits you so well.”

But why?
When Han Yu-na speaks, the gazes of the team members around her become serious.
It was the first time she received such a cold response, even though she was not friendly with her teammates.

When Yuna Han, taken aback, looked around her, Baek Ha-yeon approached her with a small smile and told her the reason.

“Because the coach told me to call Kang Yul’s unnie from today, ‘Leader’.”
“Leader?”
“Yes! Since leader unnie is in charge of a lot of things, it seemed appropriate to call her by an honorific.”
“…Okay.”

There was nothing wrong with it.
Anyway, she and Kang Yul were two years apart, and Kang Yul had enough character to be called her leader.

However, what Yuna Han thought was absurd was the atmosphere that had instantly cooled down.

‘Your obedience to the coach is amazing. It’s as if he touched a taboo.’

From Han Yuna’s point of view, she couldn’t understand how she was worried that she would offend coach Kim Jeong-soo.

But even after this, incomprehensible things continued to happen.

The only thing that changed in how the team members treated Kang Yul was not just his name.
It’s not like he doesn’t have hands or feet, but he quietly brought me a drink to drink, or got up and greeted me when I got home from work.

‘It’s not even a weakness, so why are you like that?’

In fact, Kang Yul was aware of the weaknesses that the other three team members would be ashamed of, but from Yuna Han’s point of view, who did not know that, it was full of questionable things.

In the end, Yuna Han, impatient, asked Baek Ha-yan, the person who seemed to be able to give the best answer.

“White. I understand that you call a leader a leader, but I do other things because the coach tells me to do them.”
“You mean something else?”
“That…Should I be more polite than usual? Even though she was the eldest sister, she didn’t go this far.”
“Aha. My coach didn’t tell me to do that. Just what… Leader unnie has done a lot for us, right?! Everyone is doing it personally!”

Was there a lot… ?
Unaware of her special training her, I did n’t understand, but she nodded.

She felt pretty good to look at anyway.
I don’t know if she was different, but if it was Kang Yul, she would be okay with being treated like this.

“…Okay. She seems like a good idea.”
“Hehe. We decided to prioritize the leader’s decision even in-game! If there is a center of the team, there will be no conflicting judgments, isn’t it?”
“Yes.”

The Battle Angels players begin to unite around Kang Yul.
And the importance of teamwork slowly began to emerge from the scrim the next day.

###

Standing in front of me was Kang Yul, who was messing with his hair as if he was a little awkward.
The word handsome is more appropriate than the word pretty.
In addition to that, thanks to his bobbed hair, tall height, and good physique of him, I could feel his healthy beauty of him just by looking at him.

“Your hair is pretty.”
“…Thank you.”

Kang Yul turned his head slightly at my indifferent praise.
It wasn’t empty words, but it was much nicer to see than when he was walking around sullenly with his messy hair.
I feel confident too.

However, the praise ended there.
Looking around the gathered players, I asked Kang Yul.

“Are you done scrim preparations?”

Right before, I had a 2v1 laning match with Ryu Seo-yoon, so I mercilessly painted it off and came out.
… Although it was ironic to say that he was bale after winning 2-1, but winning was winning.

Kang Yul nodded his head.

“Yes. I’m ready.”
“Okay. The Ozone Frost team has decided to help with the scrim today, so stay alert and learn at least a little bit.”

The players nodded their heads with bright eyes.
The first time I scrimped against Ozone Frost, I was defeated so badly that I couldn’t even hold my head up.
I couldn’t let the hard-earned opportunity for revenge go to waste.

In particular, Ryu Seo-yoon, who had a strong sense of humor, was grinding his teeth even more.
It would of course be impossible to win the 3rd set, so the look in his eyes his determined that he would have to win at least one set.

Looking at them, I silently nodded.

“It should be. What will the Ozone players think if they lose this time as badly as the last time? It won’t look like setting up a game team with girls. If you don’t want to be seen as such, you have to take care of yourself.”
“All right.”

Kang Yul responded to the light selling.

At the same time, message windows that start to appear one after another.

[I sold Kang Yul. Growth rate increases by 10%.]

[I sold Lee Ji-hye. Growth rate increases by 10%.]

[I sold Ryu Seo-yoon. Growth rate increases by 10%.]

[I sold white white. Growth rate increases by 15%.]

[Acquired 4 selling points.]

There is no more efficient way than to bundle up players and sell them.
With a hearty smile, I signaled to the Ozone Frost team that I was ready.
