Master! The number of avatars has exploded!
The effect of the message was tremendous.
Everyone had clicked accept while cursing up a storm, sealing the contract.
You can handle them, right?
Do you think Im some run-of-the-mill grunt? Je-cheon rules over five demon realms. This is nothing.
Thanatos flashed a smug grin as he spoke.
Okay.
No worries there.
Bro, you really gotta go easy on me, okay?
How many times do I have to tell you?
Haha Just making sure you havent forgotten.
Oh? And howd you know Im forgetful?
Jeong Hoon grinned wickedly.
Bong-gu shuddered slightly at the smile, then forced an awkward laugh.
I figured
But what should we do about this?
...?
I forget things every minute.
What kind of nonsense is that?
So watch out. I might forget and beat the crap out of you.
Aw, cmon Cut the jokes. I might actually piss myself.
...A guy whos cleared up to the sixth trial?
Bro, look at the levels Im more than five times behind you. How am I supposed to compete?
Bong-gu kept yammering on, but Jeong Hoon simply ignored him and turned to Jang Dae-hwi.
Hed been busy checking the filming equipment ever since he arrived.
Dae-hwi hyung, whenll you be done?
Almost! Since you said its combat footage, Im setting up multiple angles.
Bringing in Dae-hwi hyung had been the right call.
Jeong Hoon could have filmed it himself, but to make it easy for everyone to watch and understand, he needed to put effort into the production.
Plus, since it was going up on HoneyTube, Jang Dae-hwi had gladly agreed to come.
Hyung, were starting with a live stream.
Yeah. The live cameras this one.
Jang Dae-hwi pointed to the camera positioned in the center.
That was the main camera for this broadcast.
While he hustled to prepare, Jeong Hoon texted Oh Jin-su.
It was a request to promote it as much as possible so the maximum number of people could tune in once the stream started.
At that moment.
The community boards were ablaze with one topic.
Saw the announcement on HoneyTube?
Even though the avatar contract message had gone out worldwide, the hot topic was the channel with over 100 million subscribers: HoneyTube.
What the hell? Shouldnt have accepted the avatar contract lololol
-HoneyTubes gonna teach efficient combat methods by job class?
Now theyre giving fighting tips lololol
Stream starts in 1 hour!
Rushing over right now
Fr, no true fan misses HoneyTube, right?
And then.
Announcement from Earth.
With Earth itself strongly recommending viewers check out HoneyTube, countless people queued up to watch the stream.
An hour passed, and HoneyTubes live broadcast began.
People flooded in.
Live Viewers: 3,054,112
It hadnt even been a minute, and viewers had already hit three million.
- Honey
- Holy shit, this is gonna blow up.
- In 10 years of watching streams, Ive never seen live viewers in the millions lololol
So many foreigners too
- They promoted worldwide, duh
- A channel Earth itself promotes lololol
- Fr...
Viewers kept surging by the second, rocketing past 10 million in no time.
Strangely, the stream was rock-solid.
No crashes, no lag, crystal-clear qualityperfectly watchable.
Welcome, everyone.
It had been ages since theyd heard Honey 1s voice.
The viewers went wild at the sound.
- Honey 1, its been too long!
- Honey honey honey!
- Lmaoooo this is straight-up farming them, right?
- But getting farmed like this is legal, yeah?
- True that
- Better than dying lololol
Honey 1 skimmed the fast-scrolling chat and chuckled.
Even with his face mosaicked, the silhouette of his smile sent viewers into a frenzy.
- Spill the honey tips already!
- I skip everything else but I never miss HoneyTube yy
- Liar, you watch YouTube? Human scum?
- Kinda harsh?
- Facts lololol
Now, now, no fighting, everyone.
Sensing the vibe heating up, Honey 1 deftly intervened like a ghost.
As announced, todays stream is a lecture on job-specific combat techniques.
First up: the warrior class.
When Honey 1 drew his sword, viewers were stunned.
- Whoa What grade is that sword?
- Look at that shimmering glow Legendary?
- Nah. Legendaries dont shimmer like that.
- Then what grade is it?
God grade.
Honey 1 revealed it without hesitation.
- God grade?
- Theres a grade like that?
- Cmon, thats too much of a joke.
- Right? lololol God grade doesnt exist.
Viewers didnt buy it.
A grade above Legendary.
Officially undisclosed, so only a handful knew about it.
Then Ill just reveal the weapons name and grade.
As if hed expected the reaction, Honey 1 immediately displayed the swords name and grade.
- Tyrant Titan?
- Holy God?
- That shits real?
- Wait, so God grade comes after Legendary?
- Fuck Were screwed.
The reveal sparked an explosion of reactions.
Then Honey 1 dropped another bomb, sending the whole world into chaos.
The grade after Legendary is Celestial. What we call Heavenly grade.
The grade after Legendary.
And this is a Celestial-grade weapon.
The addition came from the usually low-key Honey 3.
When Honey 3 revealed his Celestial-grade dagger, viewers shivered in awe.
- Whoa Insane.
- Grade above Legendary?
- Wtf are these Honey guys?
- Fr, whats their deal, walking around with impossible gear?
Honey 3 shrugged at the reactions.
All thanks to Honey 1 hyung.
- Ugh, that shrug is so infuriating lololol
- Honey 3, mind if I join the crew?
- Got room for a pet? I bark real good.
- Whered this mutt come from?
Sorry, but the rosters full.
Honey 3 said it smugly.
Anyway, thats not the point.
Honey 1 smoothly cut in.
- So whens the tips?
- Youre throwing in tips on getting high-grade gear too, right?
- No way Honey 1s that clueless?
- Cmon, its HoneyTube?
Viewers prodded, but Honey 1 didnt budge an inch.
Yeah. No tips on gear. As I said earlier, Im teaching you the most efficient ways to fight by job class. Ready?
Live Viewers: 132,119,372
Over 130 million viewers nowbasically the whole world tuned in.
Yes!
Alright. Lets begin.
Jeong Hoon started from the top job in New World and demonstrated down to Martial Artist at the bottom.
Skill usage could be covered via Thanatoss guidebook, so for warriors, he showed how to wield a sword more viciously.
For mages, archers, and gunnersthe ranged classeshe explained how to leverage their skills for maximum efficiency.
For thief, he focused on Honey 3, sparring to push his abilities to the limit.
- Unbelievable
- How are all these monsters clustered in Korea?
- Damn If wed had monsters like that, things would be way better now.
Foreigners were too busy marveling at Honey 1 and Honey 3s prowess.
For Martial Artist, Honey 1 set aside his gear and fought barehanded, passing on various tips.
Yeah. That about covers it.
The sparring session had dragged on for a full three hours.
Ha This is brutal.
Unlike the unscathed Honey 1, Honey 3 was on the verge of collapse.
- Lmaolololol
- Trying to die lololol
- No choice lololol He kept begging to stop
- Gotta go that hard to join HoneyTube
- Nah, I couldnt lololol
Viewers watched with pity but laughed merrily.
Honey 3 had otherworldly power, but compared to Honey 1, he seemed all too human.
See? Viewers say I look pitiful.
- Huh? Didnt say pitiful?
- Selling drugs where
- Replay the spar for review
- Review! Review!
As review flooded chat, Honey 3 paled and backed away.
Th-these people are trying to kill me!
Well edit a review video later, so check that out.
Luckily, Honey 1 had no intention of continuing.
- Tch
- So clueless fr
- Ill donate 1 mil if you do one more round?
- Waiting is torture
- Plz
Despite the pleas, Honey 1 didnt budge.
Thats the stream. Thanks for watching, everyone.
He declared the end and cut the live feed.
After the stream, Jeong Hoon approached Bong-gu and healed him with Divine Heal.
Good work.
Bro Didnt you say youd go easy?
I planned to at first, but your levels higher than I thought.
Hed realized Bong-gu had broken through during the warrior demo.
So hed upped the intensity.
As expected, Bong-gu read his sword paths effortlessly, defending and countering seamlessly.
Jeong Hoon got satisfying footage out of it.
Especially during thief: Bong-gus potential erupted.
He used skills 1 through 5 perfectly, showing everything a thief could do.
Even without tapping Dark Emperors power, this is impressive.
Bong-gu.
Back when he was a slacker, Jeong Hoon had seen him as just another slave tagalong.
Never dreamed hed grow this much.
Who knew he was a late bloomer.
Great job! Ill edit this into something awesome and upload!
Jang Dae-hwi beamed, pleased with the footage.
You too, hyung.
Huh?
Youre a warrior. Without combat sense, you wont survive going forward.
Jang Dae-hwi had storm-leveled to Sword Master.
But it was from low-level mob grindingsurface-level mastery.
He could crush weak foes with brute force, but against real threats, hed drop fast.
Got it! Ill study hard while editing.
Nah. You worked this hardhow could I just sit back?
Huh?
Pick up your sword.
Jeong Hoons target shifted from Bong-gu to Jang Dae-hwi.
Heh.
Bong-gu covered his mouth, snickering.
N-no. I gotta head back and edit for a quick upload!
Its fine. Ill heal you right after.
Im good
Now. Ill adjust the spar time based on your level.
With superior races incoming, everyone needed to level up max.
Jang Dae-hwi lacked experience and, frankly, any real sense.
Time for some Spartan training.
F-fine
In the end, Jang Dae-hwi set down the camera and drew his sword.
Moments later, his screams echoed out.
