I Became a Genius Swordsman in the Pretty Girl Game

The news that Utopia would be appearing on “Meeting a Hunter” quickly spread among the people.

In particular, those who had been suffering from a lack of new content and were desperately consuming whatever they could get their hands on, such as rewatching old videos and reading fanfiction, were the fans of Jin Yuha and Utopia, known as the “Cliff Flower” fan cafe.

[On the Cliff]

-Yuha, come quickly… I’m cold…

-You’re late… If you don’t come soon, I’ll turn into a grandma, Yuha…

-Hey, Jin Yuha! What are you doing now when your wife is hungry? Feed me!!!

└ I’ve prepared a meal made by Jin Yuha himself~ Link – Jin Yuha’s homemade food.jpg

└ Kuaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!

└ What’s going on? Kuaaaaaaaaaaah!!!

└ What’s happening?? Let me have a taste too. Kuaaaaaaaaaaah!!!

└ Kuaaaaaaaaaaah!!!

└ I love you, YuhaI love you, YuhaI love you, YuhaI love you, YuhaI love you, YuhaI love you, YuhaI love you, YuhaI love you, Yuha

-“Yuha’s Nose Climbing the Cliff” <= To be honest, I think this b*tch should be obligated to post pictures of Yuha three times a day

└ Okay

└ Okay

└ Okay

They had been going crazy with thirst, longing for any news or content related to Jin Yuha and Utopia.

Utopia had already proven their worth and their good looks during the American monster extermination request, and their fame had grown even bigger.

And then, it happened.

A post was made by “Yuha’s Nose Climbing the Cliff”, a user known for always sharing rare photos of Jin Yuha, and it caused a stir in the fan cafe.

[Utopia will be appearing on a broadcast soon. So… Should we watch it?]

It was just a simple line without any photos, but the impact was tremendous.

-Nose-nim, stop joking around and just post some mouthwatering photos of Yuha… What? It’s true? Hey, it’s true! It just became official! Utopia is going to be on “Meeting a Hunter”!

-What? What? What? What? What? What? What? They’re really going to be on TV?!

-Wow, aren’t they usually only active hunters on that show? I thought they didn’t invite students.

-Kyaa, Utopia’s class is crazy, for real, haha.

-But isn’t that show kind of famous? I heard it’s where they expose hunters who exaggerate their achievements.
└ Yeah, there’s always a lie detector artifact involved because so many people exaggerate their stories, haha.

-Hey, what about that corner where they read out questions from viewers?
└ Yeah, they’ll probably do that since it’s a fixed segment.
└ Then, what if my question gets picked and Yuha reads it…?
└ Crazy! This is my chance to show my true feelings to Yuha!!! Get lost, everyone!!! Haha
└ I’m going to write my question right now…
└ Haha, Cheetah is laughing. She already wrote her question as soon as the official announcement was made.

The clock in the fan cafe, which had been frozen for a while, started ticking again.

“Hello, viewers! ‘Meeting a Hunter’! Even before the show started, there was so much interest in our guests today!”

“Yes, indeed. I think this is the most attention we’ve ever received for a guest on our show. Our staff had a hard time because so many people were interested, and our servers even crashed a few times.”

“Wow, they crashed the servers? The anticipation for our guests is growing by the second!”

In the spacious studio, the two female MCs skillfully opened the show with a lively conversation.

Behind the stage, I swallowed my saliva.

‘Wow, I never thought I’d be doing this…’

Of course, in Velvet’s game, there were sometimes requests to appear on broadcasts or give interviews to magazines.

If you succeeded in such requests, you gained a lot of reputation points, but the other rewards were trash, so most players avoided them.

If it weren’t for the mana-boosting elixir refined from the Fire Dragon, I wouldn’t have done this either.

‘And in Velvets most characters have strong personalities, so they often screw up during broadcasts…’

If that happened, your reputation would take a huge hit instead.

I glanced to the side.

Lim Ga-eul, who was usually so confident, was trembling and said, “Se-Se-Se-Senior… I’m so nervous, there are so many cameras and people. Hand! Hold my hand!”

“Yes, senior, I’ll hold your hand.”

Lee Yoo-ri also seemed uncomfortable with this environment, as her face was stiff.

‘Thankfully, Kang Do-hee, Shin Se-hee, and Sophia have experience in this area.’

Mad Dog, Cheonhwa, and Sophia had done interviews before, so they were used to this kind of setting.

Ichika, I didn’t know what she was thinking, but she looked the same as always, which was reassuring.

At that moment, one of the female MCs, who had been talking about our achievements and watching our videos, made eye contact with me and nodded.

It was a signal that it was almost time for us to come out.

“Well, let’s stop talking and bring out our special guests for today!”

“Yes, everyone, please welcome them with loud applause and cheers!”

As majestic music played,

Waaaaaaahhhhhh!!!

Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap

To the sound of applause from the audience, I and the party entered the studio.

.

.

.

The MCs of “Meeting a Hunter”, Su-jin and Yu-jin, swallowed their saliva at the enthusiastic cheers and applause from the audience.

They had expected a warm response, but not to this extent.

The reaction was on a whole different level compared to when other hunters had visited the show.

As they prepared for this special episode, they had learned more about Utopia and familiarized themselves with Jin Yuha’s photos and videos.

They thought they had become somewhat used to his looks, and with their experience of interacting with good-looking celebrities and hunters, they believed they wouldn’t be easily surprised.

But as Jin Yuha walked towards them with a slightly lazy expression, they couldn’t help but stare with their mouths hanging open.

‘Wow… He’s even more stunning in person…’

‘…Is he even human? Is he using some kind of charm magic?’

The way he walked with a slight swagger exuded an air of nobility.

His long black hair, which he had grown out since the last time they saw him, was tied back, contrasting beautifully with his pale skin.

The photos and videos they had seen before didn’t even capture 50% of his true charm.

Of course, they didn’t know that his charm stat had increased even further after he reached 3-star rank, but that was beside the point.

‘…Is he for real?’

‘…Is he for real?!’

They couldn’t help but be amazed.

Now they understood why people praised him so much.

‘Oops.’

‘Oops!’

The MCs realized their mistake as they stood there, gaping at the Utopia party members.

They had forgotten to say anything after inviting them out, and this could have easily become a broadcasting accident.

“Ahaha! Sorry! I was so overwhelmed by your presence that I forgot what I was supposed to say!”

“Wow, Su-jin, you too? I was also just standing here with my mouth wide open because he’s so handsome!”

The MCs pretended as if this was all part of their plan, even though it was 100% genuine surprise.

“Ahem! Well then, let me introduce them! The hottest rising star of Velvet Hunter Academy, the gathering of geniuses, the party that has made headlines everywhere, from mid-term evaluations to Japan and even the United States!”

“Yes, we have the Utopia party with us today! Jin Yuha, please say hello.”

Jin Yuha bowed his head with a calm expression.

“Hello, I’m Jin Yuha, the leader of Utopia.”

“Yes, Jin Yuha, welcome to ‘Meeting a Hunter’!”

“As far as I know, this is your first time appearing in front of people on a broadcast, aren’t you nervous?”

“A little.”

“Haha, don’t worry, you’ll loosen up as we talk. Don’t be too nervous!”

“Oh, here. This is our signature lie detector artifact! Everyone, please wear these bracelets!”

Jin Yuha and the party members followed her instructions and put on the lie detector artifacts.

“From now on, you have to tell the truth, or the light will turn red. If there’s a topic you don’t want to talk about, you can say ‘pass’, and the light will turn yellow. Red means a strong penalty, and yellow means a mild one!”

The interview proceeded smoothly thanks to the smooth hosting skills of the two MCs.

“I heard that the first person to join you was Lee Yoo-ri. How did you two meet?”

“Oh, well, it was during the Camelia Forest raid before I entered the Academy. At that time, a dealer was supposed to back-attack… No, I mean, they were supposed to come, but they didn’t show up…”

“Kang Do-hee and Shin Se-hee were already famous as rising stars as Fighting Dog and Cheonhwa at that time. How did you end up forming a party with Jin Yuha? Many people were surprised by that decision back then.”

“Hmm, during the basic training, we were grouped with other male quota students and special admission students. I was surprised by Jin Yuha’s swordsmanship skills, so I approached him first.”

“I accepted the party invitation because I saw Jin Yuha standing up for another male quota student and thought he was trustworthy.”

“What about Lim Ga-eul?”

“Ah, I met him during the practical Gate training! At that time, my grades were at the bottom, and I was worried about failing. He taught me how to use my abilities!”

“I used to be a model, and on my way home, I was kidnapped during the mid-term evaluation. I had actually given up on the Academy because my family opposed it, but I forgot to cancel my enrollment. If I hadn’t met Jin Yuha, I might have been in real danger…”

“He saved me from an incubus villain.”

As the party members shared their stories of how they met Jin Yuha and joined Utopia, they also talked about his past achievements.

From excelling in the male quota system despite facing discrimination, winning the group battle competition, to his early villain exterminations, mid-term evaluation villain extermination, vacation demon extermination, Haeundae monster wave clean-up, Japan Forest villain extermination, American monster extermination request, and most recently, the Fire Dragon?

…Not to mention the countless times he had saved the lives of his party members and others, the extent of his achievements was mind-boggling.

As they listened to these stories, the two MCs were dumbfounded.

‘Is this for real…?’

‘Is this all true…?’

Their gazes naturally shifted to the bracelets they were wearing.

Normally, the lie detector artifacts would light up red and trigger penalties, creating funny moments for the show.

But from start to finish, the lights on the artifacts remained green, indicating that everything they had said was true.
