I Became a Genius Swordsman in the Pretty Girl Game

Chapter 229



“Meeting a Hunter ─ Utopia Episode”

Trailer.

The appearance of Utopia filled the studio with cheers.

But soon, the two MCs spoke with serious faces.

“Th-That… I mean, the bracelet is saying it’s the truth…?”

“Uh, well… Are you saying that all of this is true…?”

Kang Do-hee coldly replied, “Why would we lie?”

“……So, do you have any evidence…?”

Shin Se-hee calmly nodded.

“Yes, of course, we can show you evidence. How about the most recent one?”

The screen transitioned to a letter.

[Have you ever had a girlfriend? If so, how many times?]

The trailer ended with a scene of Jin Yuha with long hair opening his mouth to answer the question.

It was a short but intense trailer.

-I was there in the audience. You guys have to watch this episode of “Meeting a Hunter” for sure. If you don’t, you’re not just losing half your life, you’re losing your entire life, haha

The honest promotion by the “Meeting a Hunter” production team and the collaboration of the audience members, who were like locusts swarming the internet even before the broadcast.

A few days later.

When “Meeting a Hunter ─ Utopia Episode” aired, people who were curious about the hype gathered in front of their TVs.

-DingDing It’s finally starting!

-Ugh, I’m a current hunter, but why are they so obsessed with them? They’re just students.

-Yeah, so… I’ll just watch it once since it’s so loud.

There wasn’t much reaction when the party members first appeared and had light conversations.

It was just praise for Jin Yuha’s changed appearance.

-Wow, he looks so cool with his long hair…

-I usually don’t like guys with long hair, but why does Jin Yuha look so sexy?

-Just looking at his face is entertaining, haha. Best broadcast ever

But as the party members started talking about Utopia’s achievements, the viewers’ reactions gradually heated up.

-What the hell… Are they saying all of this is true…?

-Huh? The lie detector artifact is green, though?

-Yeah, it’s obviously a lie, right? They’re just exaggerating, right? They’re only in their first year, right?

-They must have spiced it up.

-Expose this fake broadcast!!!

Of course, it was unbelievable.

No matter how hard they tried to believe it, the achievements they claimed to have accomplished were too outrageous.

Then came the MC’s remark that scratched the itch, the same scene that appeared in the trailer.

“……So, do you have any evidence…?”

Kuuuuuuuuung!!!

The Fire Dragon’s head appeared on the scene, and at that moment, “Meeting a Hunter” achieved a shocking momentary viewership rating of 45%.

-What the… Is this for real…?

-What the hell is Utopia?

-No, it has to be fake! It can’t be true!!!

After the broadcast ended, the internet went crazy once again.

The things Utopia had accomplished were shocking to the public.

-What the hell. Is this all a setup? Are they trying to deify Utopia or something? I admit they’re good, but there’s no way all of this is true! They’re only in their first year!!!

Even with the Fire Dragon’s head appearing on the scene, many people still didn’t believe it.

Then, at that moment.

[I was in the same party as Soup and Jin Yuha when we first met in Camella’s Forest.]

First of all, let me introduce myself. I’m Go Yoon-seo, a 3rd-year hunter. Soup is my close friend, and she was the dealer in Camella’s Forest. Ask me anything.

[Hello, I’m a male quota student at Velvet Hunter Academy, and some people seem to doubt that Jin Yuha won the group battle competition.]

I was a student who witnessed it in person.

I got goosebumps that day, for real.

.

[Testimony about the villain extermination during the early days of school.]

I’m a second-year student at the Academy.

You can check my previous posts to verify my identity.

I’ll tell you about the villain extermination during the early days of school.

There was a pink-haired idiot named Choi Ah-ram who failed that year.

I almost failed too because of her.

.

.

.

[Testimony about the demon extermination during the vacation.]

I was a victim who was kidnapped by a demon and rescued by Jin Yuha.

The video that Lim Ga-eul Supporter first uploaded with a middle school syndrome concept, that wasn’t a joke or a setup.

If it weren’t for Jin Yuha, who rescued me that day, I wouldn’t be here today.

.

.

.

People started posting testimonies with concrete evidence that couldn’t be denied.

So, what was shown in the video was not a lie, but the truth.

-Wow, so Jin Yuha’s just a crazy guy…

A user’s sentence perfectly summed up everyone’s thoughts.

It was only natural that Utopia was becoming more than just a party, but a syndrome.

After all, even before all these revelations, Utopia was already considered remarkable, and now they were learning about the even more astonishing things they had done behind the scenes.

It was only natural for people to be amazed and feel a surge of national pride.

Meanwhile, as this was happening.

In the fan cafe 【Flower on the Cliff】

This was a place where a different kind of madness unfolded.

Hundreds, thousands of screenshots from the broadcast were uploaded, and hundreds of comments were posted with every refresh.

-Yo, he’s gone crazy… What’s with that visual change??? He used to have short hair, but now that he’s grown it out, that male charm… I can’t take it…

└ What are you gonna do if you can’t take it?

└ He’ll break down every wall in his way.

-It’s also really interesting how they became friends with Utopia in the past. They were all saved or helped by Jin Yuha… I wish Jin Yuha would save me too. I’ve been trapped in my room for 28 years…

└ Haha, yeah, Ichika, he saved her from an incubus, right? Did Ichika mistake Jin Yuha for the incubus?

└ It’s possibility… It’s there…!

└ I also felt like I was being charmed while watching Jin Yuha on the broadcast.

-But forget everything else! Is he really a virgin with that face??? I can’t believe it even as I watch it, haha. If you’re not going to use that face, give it to me!

└ Dude, look at Jin Yuha’s schedule… Can you live like that?

└ Yeah, there’s no time for girls with that schedule… And it’s not a lie, look at the photos that Nose uploads. They’re always sweaty training photos.

└ That’s why it’s even better.

-I’m replaying the clip of him getting flustered and talking faster when asked if he has a girlfriend over and over again. It’s so cute!!!

└ A handsome virgin does exist!!!

└ Do such legendary creatures really exist!?

[Guys, those of you who watched “Meeting a Hunter” today, gather here for a moment.]

Let’s have a moment of worship for Yuha.

-Yu-men…!

-If Jin Yuha apologizes, his Academy life is over.

-“If you can’t answer this question, then you’re the dealer.” Jin Yuha said to the tactics instructor at the Academy.

-Jin Yuha: Yes.

-Questioner: Can you see into the future?

From Jin Yuha’s interview –

-Jin Yuha was bitten by a snake. Three days later, the snake died.

-“How did the Fire Dragon’s head look again? I forgot.”

As Jin Yuha wondered, a passing Fire Dragon cut off its own head and offered it to him.

-At the Velvet Academy, the instructor has to ask Jin Yuha for permission to speak.

.

.

The day after Utopia’s broadcast.

As I was leaving class, I sighed deeply.

“……This is crazy, it’s gone viral.”

I knew that appearing on the broadcast would increase my reputation and attract attention, but…

Well, I expected it to be successful, but it seemed to have been too successful.

Especially when I recalled what had happened in the Advanced Tactics class earlier.

I couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh.

As soon as the class started, the instructor suddenly raised his hand and looked at me, so I wondered what was going on.

“Well, I heard that if I want to speak in class, I need your permission, Jin Yuha. May I speak?”

“What?”

“Thanks for allowing it. Jin Yuha.”

Well, that was fine.

During the class, a problem came up, and the instructor raised his hand again and looked at me.

“Sorry to interrupt your break, but what’s the answer to this? Jin Yuha?”

“Dealer…”

“As I thought. Thank you for your guidance, Jin Yuha.”

Of course, the instructor was just joking, and the other students laughed as well, so…

It was probably just because my reaction was funny.

It was funny the first time, but the second time was a gag.

But the third time and beyond was just brain-melting!

As this back-and-forth continued throughout the class, my face turned bright red, and I felt embarrassed.

‘This is not okay…’

It was too burdensome, I couldn’t take it anymore!

‘Hoo… From now on, wherever I go, I have to make sure I’m always with my party members.’

At least I’ll feel more comfortable with them around, and since we’re all in Utopia, the attention will be divided.

Then, people’s gazes won’t be as blatant as they are now.

.

.

.

Jin Yuha had no idea that even this reaction was part of Utopia’s plan as he desperately searched for his party members.

The night of the “Meeting a Hunter” recording.

A girls-only drinking session to celebrate Jin Yuha’s purity and the fact that he had never had a girlfriend.

It was a bit of an odd reason to celebrate, but…

In fact, even though they hadn’t asked before, whether or not Jin Yuha had a past girlfriend was a major concern for those who wanted to get closer to him.

Everyone was happy, so they gladly raised their glasses.

Shin Se-hee, with a clear smile, spoke with a slight drunkenness in her voice.

“Making Jin Yuha famous is something that would have happened naturally sooner or later anyway, since he’s so exceptional. But the sooner we do it, the better. Mainly, for us…”

Lee Yoo-ri tilted her head.

“Hmm? Why? Jin Yuha doesn’t like it when strangers pay too much attention to him. Even if it’s going to happen eventually, why rush it?”

“Yeah, Yuha tends to be sensitive about others approaching him and puts up a strong wall.”

Sophia, who had been listening, clapped her hands as she understood what Shin Se-hee was getting at.

“Ah, I think I know what you’re trying to say. Jin Yuha feels burdened by the public’s attention, so if he becomes famous, he’ll naturally gravitate towards a place where he feels comfortable…”

“Hmm, a place where he feels comfortable…”

Kang Do-hee trailed off, but everyone knew what she was thinking.

“Us?”

Ichika, who liked certainty, drove the point home.

‘It’s true that he’s going to become famous eventually anyway, so it’s not a bad thing to make him famous a little earlier, is it?’

Everyone brought the glass to their lips and silently thought the same thing.

Gulp─

‘Then Jin Yuha will be more inclined to turn to us instead of looking elsewhere.’

For some reason, the alcohol tasted like honey.
