Doing This For the Best (3)

A moment of silence swept through the meeting room.

However, the minds of the two department heads from Tri were not nearly so quiet.

'Purple is going to coach someone directly?'

They had already guessed that Purple would introduce a skilled streamer from another field.

But they never expected that Lee Gyeongbok would personally teach the last participant.

'Since fighting games really depend on individual ability.'

Both the men's and women's divisions were composed of three-person teams, but in reality, matches were conducted one-on-one.

Moreover, the characters used in the competition varied widely. To coach someone else, you needed a broad understanding of different characters.

That's why teaching someone in a fighting game was never an easy task.

'But if it's Purple...!'

'It should be more than possible!'

Still, the two department heads soon found themselves convinced. If it was Lee Gyeongbok, then anyone would believe it was possible.

The reason was simple.

'He's a genius even Shoulder acknowledges.'

'Purple probably doesn't even need practice.'

Their 'general' standards simply didn't apply to Lee Gyeongbok.

On the third day of Metal Punch, he was already treated as being on the same level as Shoulder, and he was even officially included in the IVO guide. Not only that, he handled brand-new characters almost effortlessly.

There was more than enough evidence that Lee Gyeongbok was qualified to be a coach.

'If he teaches well, that alone will boost event attention.'

'Even if the other person can't learn, portraying the agony of a genius as a theme will definitely become a hot topic.'

Whether the coaching worked out or not, tri really had no reason to refuse. Thus, the two department heads welcomed his decision with bright smiles.

"If you could do that, we'd be grateful!"

"Wow, you really do only think about the broadcast after all!"

However, they couldn't simply rejoice.

They too had some sense of courtesy.

"But in this case, there's really nothing for us to help with."

"Exactly. Purple, you're busy, and we're just taking up your time..."

Even if it wasn't intentional, it might really come across as if the platform was going overboard with its demands.

"Well, then how about this?"

Lee Gyeongbok smiled as he spoke.

"I'm borrowing Genome's network, right? So I'd like to repay him a bit, but there's something I'd like Tri to help with."

"Us?"

"What kind of help...?"

As the two leaned in, Lee Gyeongbok revealed his suggestion. Soon, their expressions brightened.

"Oh! This is actually great. Genome is more than qualified!"

"Now I see why Purple's broadcast always goes so well. Your planning is top notch."

"Ah, it's nothing. I just think of whatever's more fun."

Lee Gyeongbok waved his hand with an awkward smile at their compliments.

"We'll get your suggestion confirmed right away."

"Yes, as long as Genome agrees, there shouldn't be any problem."

"Thank you. I'll ask Genome myself."

With the situation settled, Lee Gyeongbok and Park Juho were seen off by the two department heads as they headed back to the parking lot.

As Lee Gyeongbok got in the car, Park Juho let out a sigh of relief with a laugh.

"You really are something."

"What?"

"How do you think of ideas like that, on the spot?"

Belt buckled, Lee Gyeongbok snorted softly.

"It just came to mind naturally."

"Just popped up?"

"If I want to block platform involvement, I have to resolve it through my own network, right? Actually, someone came to mind before Genome did."

"Who? Not Eclipse, right..."

"No, I was thinking about connecting through Metal Punch."

Park Juho frowned as if he didn't understand.

"Yattaman and Triple."

"Ah."

When Lee Gyeongbok explained, Park Juho's eyes widened.

"Come to think of it, there are more Metal Punch streamers on the Japan side. But there's the language barrier, and you aren't exactly that close with them, so that'd be tough."

"Right. So I wasn't sure what to do, but when they said they'd introduce me to a streamer from another field, that popped into my head."

"Oh, you mean about how Yattaman learned from Triple?"

"Yeah. So I thought, why couldn't I try teaching, too? That's why I brought it up."

At Lee Gyeongbok's casual tone, Park Juho shook his head.

"You really are a character."

"Me?"

"You're so focused on broadcasting that you even catch those fleeting thoughts. Should I message Genome's manager for you?"

"Hm, I'll just talk to him myself. Since it's still early, I'll just send him a message."

"Whatever works for you."

As Lee Gyeongbok waved him off, Park Juho shrugged and started the car.

The vehicle smoothly pulled away.

Early afternoon, Genome's studio.

"Hyung, I'm here."

"Oh, you're here. Feels like it's been ages."

Lee Gyeongbok greeted Genome warmly.

"Sorry to call you in when you should be resting."

"Hey, what's there to be sorry for? After all, haven't I enjoyed plenty of coin effect thanks to you lately?"

Genome continued jokingly.

"In fact, I was already expecting this."

"Expecting what?"

"I didn't catch all of it, but I saw you recruiting with Shoulder on your stream. From when you had an open spot, I figured I should probably introduce someone."

"Oh? Then why didn't you say something?"

"Come on, it's tacky to jump in when nobody's even asked for help. So I just sat back and watched for now."

Lee Gyeongbok responded lightheartedly.

"Oh, then I guess I don't have to feel that grateful, huh?"

"Hey, don't be like that, or I'll sulk!"

The two exchanged some cheerful banter as they settled in.

Genome immediately opened a folder and displayed the list of unedited MasterDissection videos.

"Wow, you do have a lot."

"Told you. This is my flagship content for a reason. Since it's a female division participant, let's filter by gender first."

Genome selected videos featuring female streamers.

"These are all top talents in their respective fields—no one here is lacking in physicality. But the physical skills needed for fighting games are different, right?"

He opened another file. Next to the video list, a data sheet filled with numbers appeared.

"Uh...what's this?"

"You did this, too, remember? I compiled the results from the genome-level commando drills and the melee/ranged tests."

"Wow, you kept a record of all that?"

"Of course. These days, information is an asset. I always organize and send it to anyone who appeared. I even sent it to you, remember?"

Lee Gyeongbok rolled his eyes, then answered honestly.

"I think I saw it, but it looked complicated and I just closed it."

"Well, you basically didn't even need those numbers anyway."

Genome snickered and adjusted the data sheet filters.

"There are some older records mixed in, too. Let me narrow it to people from the last year."

The list shortened again. Then, he sorted by "dynamic vision" and "reaction speed."

"Yeah, these two are key for fighting game physicals. You're surprisingly knowledgeable?"

"Hey, maybe I can't play, but I know theory. Metal Punch skills auto-execute, after all."

Genome struck a mock-proud pose.

"Everyone here is great, but you're going to coach, right?"

"What about it?"

"They're all masters in their own right and have their pride. It's best to start with someone with an open mind, I think."

Coaching wasn't just about the person's ability—the attitude mattered, too. If their pride was too strong, they might push back during coaching.

"Good point. You know them best, so I'll leave it to you."

"Okay, I'll reach out to each one."

You couldn't make offers to multiple people at once. If several accepted simultaneously, it'd become awkward.

"But I really recommend this person. She's got a straightforward personality and is totally clean, without a hint of controversy."

"Oh, even better."

As Genome typed out a message, Lee Gyeongbok spoke.

"I'm not just asking you to help for nothing, you know."

"Hm?"

"There's a slot reserved for this event. We've finalized it with Tri, so it's yours if you want it."

"A slot?"

Genome blinked in confusion. All participant slots were filled, and he'd turned down offers before.

He hesitated, then asked:

"What? Don't tell me that if you can't get someone, I have to cross-dress?"

"What kind of nonsense is that?"

Lee Gyeongbok laughed and shook his head.

"This is a proper tournament, isn't it? Can it go without a commentator?"

"You want me as a commentator?"

"Yeah. But not just as a commentator—for a platform match, I suggested doing 'biased commentary'."

This was Lee Gyeongbok's request to the Tri department heads.

Since the participants were the 'representatives' of their respective platforms, why not have the commentators act as representatives, too?

"I think you'd do a great job."

Genome had commentated when Eclipse faced off against Lee Gyeongbok in EldenSoul. Lee Gyeongbok remembered how much the viewers enjoyed it.

Genome's eyes widened at the unexpected proposal, then his jaw dropped.

"Damn! Of course I'll do it! Who would turn down a big event like this?! Seriously, thanks, man!"

"I'm the one who should be thankful."

Lee Gyeongbok smiled, satisfied with the reaction.

"It's all for the sake of making things go well at Tri, they said. For me, I just want the people I know to do even better."

"Man! That's the right mindset!"

As the two basked in their satisfaction, Genome moved his hand and looked back at him.

"Oh, got a reply right away."

"Yeah? What'd she say?"

"Um... she wants to hear the details in person?"

"In person?"

Lee Gyeongbok smiled.

"That's even better."

* * *

While waiting for her to arrive, Lee Gyeongbok and Genome watched the MasterDissection videos.

"Man, even on replay, this is just insane."

"She really deserves the master title."

Lee Gyeongbok nodded in agreement at Genome's admiration. Her performance in the video was that impressive.

"So now you see why I had to prepare a separate test just for her?"

"True, the regular melee or ranged tests wouldn't be able to measure this."

Lee Gyeongbok smiled and nodded.

"Looks like she's got plenty of potential to become a fighting gamer."

"You think so? Oh, here she is."

As Genome rose, Lee Gyeongbok followed suit. There was a studio connection request notification, just as expected.

Sure enough, amidst a swirl of light, she soon appeared in the studio.

"Wow! Hello!"

With a bright voice, she greeted them, and Lee Gyeongbok's eyes widened in surprise.

She was wearing a vibrant neon windbreaker and an RGB-lit headset hung around her neck. Judging by her style, she looked like someone you'd see around Hongdae or Gangnam.

'Definite concept.'

But what really caught the eye was the pixelated sunglasses. That playful atmosphere screamed streamer.

"Oh, welcome! Thank you for making time for this!"

Genome quickly stepped between them, since both sides were meeting for the first time and needed an introduction.

"This here is..."

"Wow, it's really Purple! Purple's so famous, there's no need for introduction! It's an honor to meet you!"

"Haha, thank you."

"Wow, your voice is amazing. Now that I'm hearing it in person, it's clear the stream doesn't do Purple's voice justice."

Realizing she might have been too nervous, she quickly removed her sunglasses.

"Oof, I got too excited and was rude. It's only proper to make eye contact while talking."

"You're as high-energy as ever."

Genome snickered and cleared his throat, turning to her.

"Now, this person is the reigning champion of not just the DJ PRO tournament, but the Dance Disk Rotation competition as well! Also a permanent fixture in the Beat Sword global top 5—the undisputed queen of rhythm games!"

Rhythm games.

A genre that, if anything, demanded even more dynamic vision and reaction speed than fighting games.

"Genome! If you call me 'queen', it almost sounds like a villain!"

She smiled in embarrassment at Genome's introduction, but he ignored her protests and finished the introduction.

"The master of rhythm games: Decibel!"

She was the number one in her field.
