Chapter 31: Chapter 31 – First Collaboration [2]
Two people dressed in golden and silver armor appeared in a clearing, surrounded by tall trees that created a natural cover against many barbarians in the distance.
Because the game hadn't started yet, the enemies were frozen still, not even moving an inch. A half-transparent timer was hovering in the corner of the players' vision.
Not only that, when players entered the co-op Fort Siege, the weapon they chose in the waiting room automatically was carried over.
The silver-armored individual, Max, had two rare axes slung on his back. Meanwhile, Flexy had a longsword strapped on his waist.
"Alright! We're here!" Flexy spread his arms wide and grinned. Then he turned to Max. "I've explained the goal of this co-op before to you guys. But! Have you explained it to your viewers yet, Breeze?"
"I plan to explain it," Max answered with a nod and turned to the camera.
"Do you want to hear my explanation, guys? Bear with me, alright. Some of you may already understand how this works, but there might be people who have never watched Knight's Journey and are only here after hearing my beautiful voice." He added with a chuckle.
— What is this guy saying?
— Be careful, Breeze! Someone will stab you from behind tonight!
— This newbie is getting full of himself lol
— First time here! It seems this streamer is shameless!
— lolol
— I can't have a word... Flexy changed our kid to be shameless!
The viewers looked disappointed in the front, but they were actually having fun as some only sent laugh emoticons.
"I bet you guys are actually also staying to hear my voice."
He continued, laughing playfully to get his viewers' reaction. It worked, and the chat moved faster than ever.
"Hahaha, anyway, let me explain what we will do. I will just summarize it so it won't take long."
Max began to explain about the co-op Fort Siege and the objectives that he and Flexy needed to finish to end the challenge. On the side, Flexy nodded many times in acknowledgment, sometimes praising Max's explaining skill whenever he stopped to ask the chat. f(r)eeweb(n)ovel
After less than a minute, his explanation ended, and he asked whether the viewers understood.
— Yes yes, just play now!
— What's he playing? I came because I saw this stream in a recommendation.
— That was the end of Breeze's beautiful voice lol
— lolol beautiful voice
— ^^ He's playing Knight's Journey
"Great! Watch our run closely, and don't leave! I will probably explain something in the middle of playing." Max smirked and looked at Flexy, who nodded his head.
"Indeed. Some of you must've seen the clip. We will try to use that path in today's stream! Our goal is the world record, but don't get mad if we can't achieve it in our first stream!"
The chat mocked Flexy jokingly, and he ignored them and approached Max. Muting his microphone, he gestured to Max to do the same and only talked after he did so.
"I had a great reaction from my viewers. We will stick to the plan and do the first run to teach each other how we play. The second run will be the real one. We will stop after that, and you can teach me your wall run trick before we end it an hour later, whether I managed to learn it or not."
Flexy was famous for his energetic and fun streaming content, while Breeze's streaming content focused on his skill and an element of surprise that was fun and exciting to watch.
Combining both to create energetic but unexpected content would definitely work wonderfully.
"Right now, I am reaching 25 thousand viewers. This is a higher side in my Knight's Journey stream, so we need to do our best." Flexy extended his hand, and his smile widened. He also activated his microphone again as he was ready to play.
Max nodded with the same grin, activated his microphone, and bumped his fist against Flexy's.
"Let's do this. I will go first, and you follow me from behind!"
— lolol, I don't know what they are talking about, but his confidence is through the roof!
— Kill them all!
— Blood! We will see barbarians' blood!
— The axes will finally get their blood! My right hand is aching!
Breeze's viewers became excited at how confident he was even with a big streamer and undoubtedly one of Knight's Journey best players.
They liked that part of him. No one talked him down because they had seen Breeze's actual skill. He wasn't lacking, even when compared to StoneSword! After all, he solo-killed Trouser, which was said to be impossible to kill alone.
"Hahaha! I am confident in my ability, but if that's what you want, then I will let you go first!" Flexy answered enthusiastically and started the stage.
[Fort Siege will start in 3 seconds!]

[Go!]
Both of them ran out of the hiding spot at the same time. Max was running fast in front of Flexy, gripping two axes tightly in his hand.
A fort with an imperceptible wall stood tall on a hill. On the highest spot of the fort, a ripped flag was hit by the wind, ruffling around in its former glory. That was one of the objectives of this run. The other objective was inside the fort, so the best strategy was to split up when they were in front of it.
The barbarians that were frozen earlier started to move. They noticed Max and Flexy and shouted loudly to alarm the others in the castle. Afterward, they rushed at the duo with anger burning in their eyes.
Looking at them, Flexy turned a bit worried. There were too many barbarians, totaling 25. They had a bad Random Number Generation, known as RNG, and actually spawned more mobs than normal.
"Breeze! Can you handle some of them?" Flexy shouted at Max, who went a little ahead of him.
"I got this!"
Max answered and raised his right hand. He brought it behind his head as he kept running. When he heard metal touching each other from behind, he quickly threw his hand forward, and the axe was flying toward the barbarian with a bow and arrow, lodging between his eyebrow and killing him in one go.
"First blood is mine!" Max exclaimed without reducing his running speed.
He didn't notice Flexy's perplexed face behind him and started to mow down the barbarians with a feral smile on his face.
Looking at the big streamer's reaction, the chat burst into laughter.
— Hahaha! Look at his face!
— Lolol! That's why Breeze is the best. He's built differently!
— I want to be him! I envy him! Make me yours!
— STFU! Just enjoy Breeze killing the barbarians while Flexyboy is stunned!
— We need to clip this! Clippers!
— I got you bro!
It was just usual Breeze's streaming for the people from day 1 and 2. However, those who just joined today after knowing Breeze from Flexy's stream reacted differently.
— This guys nuts!
— Is he cheating?! No way he can move like that!
— The barbarians are nothing... They are more like Bruhbarian
— Barbierian fits more.
— Damn, you are good at puns. Come to him, Barbierian! Let him cut you in half!
— lololololol
Indeed... Just the usual reactions.
