The Mauga Spirit
As soon as I stepped onto the battlefield, a barrage of enemy attacks greeted me. I decided not to dodge, but to take them head-on. "They’ll heal me, right?" I didn't know much about that cat hero's skills, but surely a healer wouldn't lack a healing ability...
"Oh, what the?" I was thinking about pulling back since my health was low, but suddenly my Mauga started flying. "Ah. Is this a cat skill?" Looking at the string connected to me from above, it seemed that was the case. "Hahaha! I am the Mauga who flies in the sky!" I shouted while dealing damage from the air to the enemy Mauga. It felt incredibly good to fly and attack as if I were Pharah. However.
"Um... where's the heal?" My health was nearly depleted, and I desperately needed to recover. "Ugh... can't I get out of this?" Since the other healer was also a Lucio, it was hard for them to focus heals on me. "Whatever. I'll just keep shooting." Since Mauga's passive provided extra health and my E-skill healed me when I dealt damage, I focused on attacking.
"Oh. Nice job, our DPS." At the moment all attention shifted to me, our team's DPS took out the enemy Yana and Kiriko, causing the opponent's sustainability to collapse. "Mauga, come forth!" After landing, I engaged the enemy Mauga in a head-to-head duel and won. Though, our team did help a little...
"Wow. Mauga is actually fun."
"This round seems like it'll go smoothly, right?"
"Ah, cancel, cancel! It's probably going to be a disaster!"
"Hey, this is a broadcast, how can I shut up? That's like telling someone to eat bread without opening their mouth."
"Stop saying gross things and focus on the game." The game reached the first checkpoint. "What is this guy doing?" Suddenly, the enemy Mauga used charge to come at me and was just standing there taking fire. I simply stepped back and, along with my teammates, struck the Mauga down. "What is this, throwing?" As I thought that, the enemy Mauga's chat popped up.
"Are they trash-talking now?" At first, I thought the enemy Mauga was just annoyed at their own team.
"Was that directed at me?"
After that, the enemy Mauga explained in detail what the "Mauga Spirit" was... "Wait, you mean both of us stand there and trade fire so the variables are left only to the DPS and healers? Really? Isn't it just better if I'm good at the game?"
"Ah." Although the game I played was just one match, a realization dawned on me. "But, I like my current teammates?" They weren't typing weird things, and their skills weren't the worst.
"How did you know?"
"Hmm..." Well, I didn't think the enemy team was particularly bad...
"Okay, call!"
The enemy Mauga and I met, ignored the payload, rubbed our bodies against each other, and started trading fire. "Jahahaha! This is the Mauga Spirit!" We both felt our bodies heating up and continued the damage trade. "This time, it is my victory, friend." I wasn't sure if it was really a team diff, but the first duel ended with my victory. As soon as the enemy Mauga died, I changed targets and cut down the enemy healers, and the enemy Mauga, who rushed back upon respawning, died helplessly again. "Is this right?" At this point, it just seemed like they were bad...
"Still, they're a nice kid. Don't curse at them."
"Anyway, we reached the second checkpoint, and there's plenty of time left." I changed the subject and pretended not to know. After that, the Mauga approached me to greet me. I responded with my ultimate. "Nope, you're not getting out. Guys, beat them to a pulp!" Including the Cassidy and Kiriko who came in with the enemy Mauga, I racked up 3 kills and stuck back to the payload. "Overwatch is indeed a team game."
[VICTORY]
"Kyaa, this is why I play games." The game ended smoothly, and naturally, our team won.
"Oh, thanks for the high praise." I received the high praise (insult) from the enemy Mauga and immediately joined the queue for the next game.
"Hmm... this is the definitive Mauga Spirit." The next match was a Chinese map I knew, but we lost because the whole team was bad. In this fourth match, the enemy tank happened to be a Mauga, so I was effectively using the Mauga Spirit. "Hmm... I'm getting bored." After playing Mauga for three games in a row, the gameplay became too monotonous. "Let's just finish this round and think about other heroes or a completely different game?"
"Oho."
"Alright. Mauga is fun again!"
The fourth game ended in a nail-biting victory using our team's overtime. "Whew, that was tough. Is there anything I can do while taking a break?"
"Oh. You mean those custom games?"
"RPG? I'd rather play MapleStory than play an RPG in Overwatch."
"No, I haven't played since I was in elementary school."
"So! Hurry! Please create a room. Otherwise, I'm going to end the stream right now?" I quickly changed the subject.
"Ah. Okay." A viewer gave me their ID, so I accepted the friend request, and after adding selected viewers, I started the workshop game.
"Wow, that was fun." After enjoying various workshops with viewers for about an hour, I said my closing remarks and ended the stream. "Um... what was it. Ah! Punun-i, see you tomorrow. Bye!" I wasn't used to the name Punun-i yet, but I figured I'd get used to it if I kept saying it.
"Ring-a-ding, ring-a-ding."
"Hanna?" Oh, is it because we're eating together?
"Hello?"
"Hey. You got a girlfriend, didn't you?"
"Huh?" It seemed Nayang had misinterpreted the meaning of eating together.
"No? It's just a neighbor older sister I recently got close to..."
"Older sister? You're not even dating, and you use that title?"
"...I called you older sister too."
"That's on ChatTalk!" Is that really so important...
"But why did you suddenly say that on the broadcast?"
"What, just because. The Punun-i asked, so I said it."
"Ha... okay. But be careful from now on. Be careful of that neighbor woman too."
"Yes-yes. I understand."
"Hey. I'm not joking."
"Eh, I know."
"The kid who knows that. Ha... never mind. I have a good idea."
"Huh? What is it?"
"Don't hang up the call, just put it in your pocket and eat."
"Uh... do I have to?"
"You never know. Just in case..."
"If the call charges are high..."
"I'll pay for it somehow. Hurry." I hesitated for a moment.
...
"No. I don't think that's polite."
"What?! Hey Baek M..." I pressed the end call button and headed to Kang Hanna's place.
