Ranker's Return

Chapter 671

Translator: rainbowturtle

“I think we’ve got past the difficulties, Supervisor-nim.”

Kang Ujong and Hyeonu each successfully recruited a person and talked with smiles of satisfaction.

“We’ve gained the tanker, priest, and magician. There are many resources for melee classes, so it will be easier to recruit players through connections and the audition.”

Kang Ujong laughed and lifted the latte on the table.

Bitter, yet with a soft scent of milk—the latte seemed to show his current state.

“However, they are all people I need to teach… maybe the most demanding standards will be given.”

Hyeonu sucked up the cold Americano with a straw. From now on, Hyeonu’s role became important. The skills of the melee classes in Crescent Moon depended on Hyeonu’s coaching.

‘I will be busy.’

In many ways, it seemed hard. Alley Leader Academy, Crescent Moon, and the main scenario—the things he needed to handle were piled up in layers.

‘I can’t give up anything.’

They were all made by him—Alley Leader Academy, Crescent Moon’s coach, and the main scenario.

“I want to ask you to continue the good recruitment to make the New Moon project easier, Supervisor-nim,” Hyeonu spoke to Kang Ujong with a sincere heart.

After gaining the emperor’s permission, Hyeonu moved to Tendmul first with a group of players, including Kim Seokjung.

Hyeonu, Kim Seokjung, Gang Junggu, Reina, Go Eunho, Ray, etcetera—it wasn’t strange when seeing the members. They were all named rankers.

‘Indeed, out of the people gathered here, there isn’t a single one who isn’t famous…’

There was also one strange name brought by Hyeonu.

Ray—he wasn’t a player known to have contact with Hyeonu. However, his presence explained the purpose of this group—Alley Leader’s streaming. To be exact, he chose members to participate in Alley Leader’s livestream. He planned to invite Reina, Kim Seokjung, and Gang Junggu as sparring teachers, as well as announce Go Eunho’s entry to Crescent Moon. There was a separate reason for hiding Yoo Hyeonsu’s recruitment and revealing only Go Eunho.

‘Go Eunho isn’t important.’

Go Eunho’s value in a professional team actually wasn’t that great. He was said to be the best priest in Arena, but this didn’t mean he was as overwhelming as Hyeonu. He was just a bit better than others. Of course, this could make a big difference among pro gamers, but that was all. It created a little difference. He didn’t have the ability to give ‘orders’ decisively. He couldn’t coordinate the battle.

‘Yoo Hyeonsu will play a role in the front and Cho Yeonghun in the back.’

Meanwhile, the two people not announced had that ability. It was why Kang Ujong coveted Yoo Hyeonsu in the past, and why Cho Yeonghun was able to play for Big Stars. Other teams were familiar with this information. Thus, he hid it.

“Then loosen up your body. I will be preparing the settings for the livestream. If you have any questions, ask me immediately,” Hyeonu spoke to the five people before making gestures in the air.

“Then you should decide. Who do you want to fight first?” Kim Seokjung looked at Ray and asked.

“Huh? What does that…?” Ray replied to Kim Seokjung with a silly expression. He was actually very flustered right now. He might be a ranker, but those in front of him were rankers among rankers. It was too much to be comfortable.

“Didn’t you hear from Hyeonu? The people here are your sparring opponents. So we have to set the order,” Gang Junggu explained the situation to Ray, who still didn’t seem to understand.

‘He said he was going to obtain good teachers, but…’

He brought monsters, not skilled teachers. Kim Seokjung, Reina, and Gang Junggu were all grandmasters. Kim Seokjung was ranked third after suppressing Rai, Reina was seventh, and Gang Junggu was ninth. This combination was ridiculous considering that Hyeonu was currently first in the arena rankings.

“Tell me if you can’t decide. I’ll take care of it. There are four people including Hyeonu. We can alternate between those who use weapons and those who don’t use weapons.”

Gang Junggu coolly decided the order. Reina used a sword and Hyeonu used a single-edged sword. The weapon was different, but in the end, they were still wielding something. On the other hand, Gang Junggu and Kim Seokjung were fist-wielding monks. If he had to decide the order, it was better to alternate.

“Is the discussion over?” Hyeonu approached and asked after setting up his streaming.

“Ah… No.”

“You haven’t done anything yet?”

“Ah… No.”

“Then I’ll just decide. First is me. Next it Junggu hyung-nim. Then it is Reina. At the end, you will fight Seokjung hyung-nim.”

Hyeonu arranged the situation like he had heard Gang Junggu’s words.

“Then during the break, we’ll do the sparring with the other student, Jamie,” Hyeonu spoke to himself.

Alley Leader Academy currently had two students—Ray and Jamie Moore. It was mostly Ray’s spars being streamed, but Jamie Moore was also constantly fighting on the side. His opponents had to be decided as well.

“Then I should do that.” Kim Seokjung waved his hand.

“Hyung-nim?”

Hyeonu looked at Kim Seokjung with a surprised expression.

“I am the last person, so I’ll keep fighting Jamie. Additionally, who will be so tough on him except for me?”

Kim Seokjung smiled.

“You are right. I understand, Hyung-nim. Then please.” Hyeonu smiled and nodded.

“Hello everyone?” At this moment, Jamie Moore, who didn’t know anything, appeared in the arena.

“Hey, come here. It will start soon.” Kim Seokjung waved to Jamie Moore. It was very happily.

[Alley Leader Academy with ultra-luxurious instructors (feat. surprise announcement)].

The moment Hyeonu’s livestream was created, viewers flocked like bees smelling honey.

-Ultra-luxurious instructors?Who is it?

-It must be at least two or more since it is plural.

-Even without seeing, I expect one of them to be Sijong hyung-nim.

-Then I expected Junggu hyung-nim.

-So five guys are streaming together?My eyesight will go bad.

Viewers who entered Hyeonu’s livestream talked about the title as always.

-Then what is the surprise announcement?

-Is it a dating announcement?

-Please refrain from speaking nonsense.

-Such low and dirty thoughts should be done alone in the corner.

People’s attention was naturally focused on who the ultra-luxurious instructors were. Some viewers were also interested in the surprise announcement at the end of the title but it was only a small number. In any case, most of the surprise announcements made by Alley Leader were always unexpected, so they were more interested in the instructors whom they might guess correctly.

-I only want one woman to come out.

-A woman?There aren’t many female rankers.The only female ranker I know is Reina?

-Ah, I see.Then Reina will appear.

-That is fine.However, I don’t think so. That is the problem.

-Yes, that is the problem.

Viewers sighed at Hyeonu’s connections. Just then, light appeared on the streaming screen that was only black.

“Yes, hello. I am Alley Leader. Today I will be holding Alley Leader Academy. We are working on the main scenario, but that doesn’t mean we can miss the academy.”

The colorful lights started to show the appearance of several people on the screen. It was from the face of Hyeonu, the owner of the livestream, to the faces of Jamie Moore and Ray, the students of Alley Leader Academy.

“Today, I have special guests. As a daily special instructor, I have the arena grandmasters Jin Sijong and Gang Junggu…”

-As expected, Hyung-nim is here.

-He really came here to teach.

-Junggu hyung-nim as well.

-As expected, he is a member too.

Viewers were happy and disappointed when they saw the faces they had expected.

“Additionally, there is Reina. We have three arena grandmasters.”

Just then, a face that viewers would love appeared on the screen. It was Reina.

-Reina!!!

-Oh my, Alley Leader!

-As expected, you have a discerning eye.

-You know how to stream. You are the best!

Viewers quickly changed their stance and praised Hyeonu.

“They are ultra-luxurious instructors that can’t be seen anywhere. Four grandmasters!”

-There are only nine grandmasters in the arena and four of them are here.

-So how much do I have to pay to go there?

-They don’t receive money.It is a lucky draw.

-Luck.? ?

Viewers realized that all four of them were arena grandmasters. They were so used to it that they often forgot about it. What type of people were Kim Seokjung and Gang Junggu?

“So don’t miss this precious opportunity, okay? Today will be constant spars. Ray will spar for 20 minutes and take 15 minute off. Jamie will spar for 15 minutes and rest for 20 minutes.”

Jamie Moore and Ray each had different sparring times. Jamie Moore had a relatively low physique stat and was still inexperienced. He couldn’t fight for long.

“I still think the difference is too much. In Jamie’s case, priest Go Eunho was specially invited here and will give Jamie a buff.”

Hyeonu revealed the last hidden face, Go Eunho, on the streaming.

-Go Eunho?

-A priest of New World?

-The sun king?

-No, what is this…

Viewers were surprised by Go Eunho’s sudden appearance. They were surprised about Go Eunho because he was different from the ones already here.

-Go Eunho doesn’t stream more than Sijong hyung-nim…

-So why bring him?Why did he come out?

-Alley Leader is also part of New World. It doesn’t seem that strange.

-Ah, right.Alley Leader is also a part of New World.

People speculated about the reason for Go Eunho’s appearance on the streaming, but nothing happened. Kim Seokjung, Gang Junggu, and Hyeonu were members of New World, so they brought him here as an acquaintance.

‘I should reveal it while they are interested.’

“I will make the surprise announcement now.”

Hyeonu saw the chat window and decided that now was the right time to reveal Go Eunho’s recruitment.

-Surprise announcement?

-What is it?

-Is it a dating announcement?

-Is he going out with Hyung-nim…?

-It must be Reina, you idiot.

-Why? There is the possibility of everything.

Viewers didn’t know what Hyeonu was going to say so they just said anything.

“The priest Go Eunho here has joined Crescent Moon a few days ago and will play starting from the next Spring League.”

-What?Who is joining as the player?

-Go Eunho in Crescent Moon?

-So the priests of Crescent Moon are Goddess Yuri and Go Eunho?

-What is this…?

Viewers literally couldn’t speak properly at Hyeonu’s surprise announcement. It was too abrupt.

-Go Eunho is the best priest of the Temple of the Sun.

Go Eunho, like Kim Seokjung, belonged to the Temple of the Sun. It was just that his class was a priest instead of a monk. He also earned a rare class for his fourth class advancement, the Sun’s Agent. The Sun’s Agent was a class that could only be acquired by those who had earned more than a certain amount of temple contributions among the priests of the Temple of the Sun. To date, no one except for Go Eunho had gotten the Sun’s Agent class.

-By the way, Goddess Yuri is the Moon’s Agent.

Such classes were present at each temple. Yuri’s affiliation was with the Temple of the Moon. Like Go Eunho, she had earned a certain amount of contributions at the temple and became the Moon’s Agent. Yuri was also the only Moon’s Agent.

-Crescent Moon is different, just based on the priests.

Viewers marveled at Crescent Moon, who showed an enormous scale from the announcement of its first recruit.
