Chapter Title: Midas A vs Gynix, 10 Million Won Bet
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Kangyul created a room as usual and invited his team members.
Today, Tteutteutteutt was absent due to work, so Jang Seongtae filled in instead.
Overall, their team's strength had risen considerably compared to yesterday.
Hello!
Hey Seongtae! ^^
Fighting, my twins! >ㅁ<♥
Use hearts just for me, please?
Shut up.
'Ugh, here they go again. If only Im Honggyu would play his part properly.'
Kangyul immediately started the clan match.
But the opposing clan was no pushover.
'Gynix?!'
A powerhouse clan in the top 10 of Sudden Attack and one of the top favorites for this tournament.
Kangyul's 'Midas A' was within the top 100, but compared to Gynix, they were still nobodies.
It's Gynix! Jackpot!
OnceNa's there too! Watch out for his sniping, boss.
OnceNa was already a pro running his own personal stream on AfreecaTV.
He was called Madwon for his overwhelming skill in mowing down opponents.
Madwon's the only threat. Let's do this! We can win!
Yes! We'll give it our all!
Kangyul's team all hit ready and waited.
But Gynix was taking forever to ready up.
Then OnceNa, seemingly by mistake, typed in all chat.
Do we really have to play these scrubs? That Honggyu guy's K/D is 20%? lolololololol
Lmao oops, that's all chat, oppa. Watch your mouth. The casuals watching will get offended.
So what? Calling scrubs scrubs. If you're mad, win.
'These bastards...'
Kangyul's blood boiled the moment he saw the chat mocking them.
He was about to fire back when someone beat him to it.
Hey, you rude prick. How do you know if we're casuals or not?
Your K/D and win rate say casual. Why so triggered? If you're not, no reason to be. Right?
Oppa! No talking to casuals lololol. That ID seems girly, probably baiting you on purpose!
Um, about that...
Im Honggyu tried to chime in, but the enemy team hit start.
The screen switched to loading.
Kim Min-a, fuming, grumbled at her keyboard loud enough to hear in the president's office.
'OnceNa doesn't seem that bad on stream, but damn, he's obnoxious.'
Back in game, Kangyul typed subtly.
(Team Chat)
I'll handle this, so stay quiet.
Got it.
Okay.
(All Chat)
OnceNa, if you're so confident, wanna 1v1?
What bet? Stop clinging. I don't play no-names. 1 mil maybe lol
1 mil? Fine, 10 mil it is. If I lose, I'll send it to your stream right away. If you lose, kneel on cam, apologize to Midas clan for talking shit. ^^ Call?
"T-Ten million? For real?"
"Boss, you don't have to go that far."
Kim Min-a and Lee Jaeyoung's shocked voices came from outside at the 10 million won bet.
But Kangyul wasn't one to back out once decided.
'No matter how good he is, who does he think he is to look down on people?'
You punk lol biting off more than you can chew. I'm streaming.
So call or what, punk? Scared?
Lol fine, call. Lose and run, my viewers will hunt you down.
'Perfect. Seongtae's my ace.'
No matter how hot OnceNa was now, Jang Seongtae was a future national treasure FPS pro.
SSS vs A-tier difference.
(Team Chat)
You all heard? All in, life on the line. Not for money—for our pride. Got it?
The match had begun.
The team focused harder than ever.
Im Honggyu clutched his shotgun too.
The clan match map was 3 Supply Warehouse.
Kangyul and Jang Seongtae headed to B point, while Kim Min-a, Im Honggyu, and Lee Jaeyoung went to A.
'Key is where OnceNa goes.'
If Kangyul could take him out, it'd be an easy win.
Bang!
Kangyul peeked B and took a bullet—HP halved.
(Team Chat)
OnceNa at B. Push A!
A team rushed on Kangyul's call.
But OnceNa had anticipated it, sending everyone but himself to A.
Worse, Kangyul died to OnceNa.
Seongtae got OnceNa but took heavy damage—HP under 20.
'We're losing this one.'
Kangyul spectated.
Then he spotted a shotgunner charging A.
'...Shotgun?'
Bang!
Bang!
Each shotgun blast nailed an enemy torso.
Two kills in seconds, then a grenade toss.
FRONT GRENADES!
BOOM!
'What? He took out three alone?'
Kangyul checked the ID.
[CharmingMan Honggyu]
Im Honggyu, who was always a liability in pubs.
Im Honggyu felt like he was sucked into the monitor.
Hyper-focused, tense as hell.
'...Higher K/D than Kim Min-a and my wish comes true!'
Bang!
Shotgun dropped another.
Tab check: 5 more kills than her.
'Yes!'
Honggyu glared at the screen, immersed.
The 10 mil bet? Forgotten.
Nice shot!! You're the best, Im Honggyu!
Kangyul thought Honggyu was fighting hard for the bet, unaware of his real motive.
Tough match expected, but it unfolded easily.
Not just Honggyu's explosion—Seongtae farmed everywhere.
Gynix sans OnceNa was mediocre.
With defeat sealed, OnceNa raged at his team.
Fuck. We lost cuz of you trash.
What? Trash? You accepted the bet solo, why rage?
Shut up. You're out.
OnceNa booted everyone but the girl—ugly toxicity that soured viewers.
Loser pays up—post the apology vid.
Fine, shut up. Watch your back next time.
OnceNa quit without waiting.
'Cocky bastard.'
Kangyul checked OnceNa's stream.
True to word, OnceNa knelt on cam.
— ...Midas clan, I was too cocky. Sorry. Sigh.
Viewers trolled if it seemed arrogant.
What kinda apology is this? Do it right go go go
Do it properly. Man of your word?
Don't be dirty, just win. Lose and whine ptui ptui cutting losses.
Guys, ease up. Lost cuz of team.
Fangirls get wrecked! Ptui!
— ...Hyungs, I'll do it right. I'm trash. Totally lost. Midas hyungs, won't trash talk again!
OnceNa bowed deeply.
Kangyul finally felt his anger ease.
Meanwhile, Im Honggyu didn't care about the apology.
'18 kills to 13. I won!'
Honggyu pumped his fist skyward.
Kim Min-a jumped at the sudden move.
"Eek! What's with the fist?"
"...A date!"
"Huh?"
Honggyu beamed.
"My wish. A date!"
