Martial Arts Returnee's Game Broadcast

Chapter 87

64 Hours.

The last broadcast had the longest duration.

Viewers on their way to work.

Viewers on their way home.

Exhausted viewers falling asleep.

It got to the point where viewers took turns watching in shifts.

‘I roughly understood.’

It had been a long journey,

and a long period of watching,

but thanks to that, she had realized a few key insights.

‘Outstanding martial arts can move people.’

The peace and unity in the chat.

It was achieved under the force of her power.

"I follow a strong woman and worship martial power, bowing my head. What’s wrong with that?"

"The followers themselves bow to me and eagerly yearn to be ruled. Such overwhelming power is truly magnificent!"

"Haha! More, more! Lower your heads and wiggle your hips!"

The rightful ruler of the demonic sect.

Heavenly Demon, the pinnacle of the million-member sect, armed with devotion to martial power and faith in the sect.

A woman who might have had a bit of a strange mind due to the side effects of the Heavenly Demon Martial Arts.

‘Back then, I thought she was a crazy woman, but the Heavenly Demon’s demonic world wasn’t entirely wrong.’@@@@

The Heavenly Demon’s ideal world could never be realized.

Her followers couldn’t show eternal loyalty either.

But the possibility of it,

that possibility,

began to sprout again in the modern-day chatroom,

transcending dimensions.

‘People want to be ruled by the martial arts of a strong woman.’

Otherwise, how would so many people gather in this chatroom and cheer for Mute Swordsman in the modern world, where entertainment abounds?

‘Unlike the followers in the barren Ten Thousand Mountains, those who came down to the central martial world collapsed before the worldly desires of the mortal world.’

The followers of the demonic sect had endured marches spanning thousands of kilometers.

What caused their collapse wasn’t the noble martial arts of the central martial world or the authority of the imperial palace.

It was the pleasures and desires they could not enjoy in their barren mountain land.

It wasn’t the Heavenly Demon who ruled above everyone,

but the courtesans who served below everyone.

Hao Moon broke the unity of the demonic sect,

planted desires in the innocent followers,

and made them stop and rest in comfort.

The Heavenly Demon, who had risen with the loyalty of a million followers,

stopped her steps toward the imperial palace

when the followers betrayed their own loyalty.

"Even the righteous martial arts of the martial world’s top leader, the Hunyuan Thunderstrike, couldn’t surpass the majesty of the Heavenly Demon Martial Arts, and even the great Shaolin, known as the Mount Tai of martial arts, was closed down."

"The Heavenly Demon, who ruled the world without fear, couldn’t even trample on the heads of the foolish followers who betrayed their loyalty."

North wind is cool, snow and rain are harsh

With those who love me, I shall leave hand in hand.

Empty and evil, so why hope in vain, it is time to leave.

When the subordinates, drunk in pleasures, halted their march,

the Heavenly Demon missed the perfect opportunity to strike the imperial palace.

Unable to hide her exhaustion,

she recited a line from the classic poem The North Wind from the Book of Songs,

and returned to the sect with those who followed her,

never again involving herself in worldly matters.

‘Followers and viewers are different.’

Unlike the Ten Thousand Mountains, which lacked any pleasures,

modern society is overflowing with pleasures in all directions.

Despite all the pleasures and joys available,

viewers still gathered to watch her broadcast.

How could they fall as the demonic sect’s followers did?

‘Though we were divided in the martial world due to conflicting ideas, we were still friends who supported each other’s dreams.’

Thwack!

"???"

"What did we do?"

"Why are you hitting me? ????"

Pat pat

"???"

"(Not sure what’s going on, but it feels good)"

"Mama..."

Thwack!

"No, stop hitting me!!"

"Oww, ouch!!"

"Where did that whip come from, seriously?"

"Ahhhhh!!"

Pat pat

"Phew... I’m letting you off just this time."

"Eheung.."

"But where did you learn to whip and pat like that? Hahaha."

"Whoever taught you, they did a great job."

"Seriously, lol."

Min Woo-sung, who had taught Ha Eun-eung fixed vision,

might not be happy watching this in real-time,

but at least the viewers enjoyed this unfamiliar playstyle.

Whipping and patting.

To the viewers, this might have seemed like a dominant-submissive concept,

but it was exactly the same as how the Heavenly Demon treated her followers.

The atmosphere in the chat changed sharply,

like swinging between heaven and hell.

When the chat finally quieted down with the repeated training,

Mute Swordsman nodded,

slipping the whip into his belt.

"Was I supposed to do reactions, not train people?"

"I like it, though?"

"Her basic attack is like an area attack, hitting all the viewers at once, that’s why, you idiot."

"Lmao."

"For real, lol."

"Is there really a basic attack area like Mama Swordsman?"

"Swordsman (whipping)"

"It’s not even the 20th-century army, what is this ‘unit whip’?"

"Do-S Swordsman, please stop!!"

"Ahhhhhh, please stop with the whipping!!!"

Even though new whipping-and-patting reactions were added to the mindless V1 tool reactions,

her mischievous broadcasting skills remained unchanged,

and the viewers' reactions didn’t change either.

The chat, which had quieted down with just whipping and patting,

soon flared up again with just a few donations.

Ha Eun-eung crossed her arms in dissatisfaction.

‘When Heavenly Demon whipped, it didn’t allow for such slackness.’

Heavenly Demon controlled the followers with just a few whips.

Perhaps because they were not yet as powerful as she was,

the viewers didn’t quite stay in the peaceful, cheerful atmosphere as she wanted.

She knew something was wrong from the start when the whipping began,

but anyway, just like the demonic sect followers who were tame after a whip,

Ha Eun-eung could only be troubled by this.

Why weren’t the viewers becoming obedient after being whipped?

There was one thing that seemed clear.

‘Well, back then, the Heavenly Demon was a much stronger martial artist than I am now.’

Without regaining her full strength,

she couldn’t control everyone with just whips.

It was still a matter that required time.

‘Time is enough. Just like diligent practice refines martial arts, I can keep whipping until it works.’

Thus, whipping-and-patting reactions became a new addition to the legacy of mindless V1 reactions.
