Chapter 37 - Master Anatomy (4)

Ginom was puzzled as he looked at the excited viewers of Purple.

"Why do they like it so much?"

Unfortunately, Ginom had not seen the video of Lee Kyungbok pulling the golden shotgun. Due to the relatively hasty arrangement, he had only looked for physical data of the master.

"Great! The dice have already been rolled! The final winner will be decided by this!"

As Ginom spoke, the marble wall in front of him opened to the left and right. Behind the wall, which opened with a heavy thud, was a giant slot machine.

"This is the Command Combination Slot Machine!"

- Haha, it completely excludes physical attributes.

- Ginom, you're such a troll!

- Really, with dice and roulette already there.

- But if it's GodPlay, he might be able to manipulate it with his hand skills. Haha.

- That's it! Ginom is already a daughter of a good one!

Lee Kyungbok nodded his head at the chat reactions.

'Is he preparing other methods besides this? Well, if it's the same thing, it would get boring quickly. He really prepares a lot.'

He wasn't just there to boost his popularity. As a streamer, he couldn't afford to forget what he needed to learn.

Ginom misinterpreted Lee Kyungbok's surprised expression and smiled.

"Oh, there's no need to be surprised. You can't pull that big one yourself. That's a model for the viewers, and Purple, you just need to spin this one."

With that, he flicked his finger, and the floor opened, revealing a marble side table.

On top of it was a regular slot machine identical to the giant one.

- Haha, did you try to pull that one? - So cute! Haha.

- But if it's Purple, he might be able to pull that one too?

- Really, he might climb up with parkour.

- As a ninja, he might do a king jump.

Lee Kyungbok didn't bother to clear up the misunderstanding, seeing the viewers' enjoyment.

"The game is very simple. Each slot has words to form a sentence. It will be easier to understand if you see it yourself!"

Ginom then lightly pulled the slot. The leftmost slot among the four began to spin fiercely and then stopped.

[It is Ginom]

The word that stopped. Ginom immediately pulled the lever again. The remaining three slots spun fiercely and then stopped one by one.

[It is Ginom][who][gives 16 subscription cards][to Ginom]

The completed sentence.

"Oh, the command to give 16 subscription cards to myself is complete!"

- Haha, what a joke.

- Huh? You have to keep your promise!

- Really, life is a live performance!

- Give me one!

The viewers of Ginom jumped up at the result. Ginom exaggeratedly frowned.

"Hehe, these people are really something. You keep acting like this in front of the guest? We agreed to be sophisticated. Especially in front of Master Jang, Purple, you need to maintain your tone and manner!"

- You're really over the top, aren't you?

- He's serious when his money is on the line. Haha.

- Eek! Stop it! Leave our broadcast!

- Haha, if it was Purple, you would have given it right away.

- Hey, old friend. Act like a gentleman.

- If you act like this, we'll become Genomes too!

- Our brother is embarrassing even if we show him off. 😭

Lee Kyungbok couldn't help but laugh at the viewers' reactions. On the surface, it looked like they were fighting, but...

'He really is close to his viewers.'

He could feel that both the streamer and the viewers knew to what extent they could accept each other, which allowed them to enjoy it.

"Ah, for Purple, I'll pay. Got it? Show your gratitude properly?"

Ginom moved his finger as he spoke.

['GENOME' has gifted 16 subscription cards!]

The system message soon appeared in the chat.

- Loyalty! Loyalty! 😊7

- As expected of our brother! Such a generous spirit!

- Why is Ginom generous? It's because of GodPlay. Haha.

- Really, Ginom is moderately generous, right?

- Moderately generous, okay. Haha.

- I will never forget the subscription cards you gave. (Tear) (Tear)

- KingPlay! GodPlay! LightPlay!

Ginom smiled and turned back to Lee Kyungbok.

"As you can see, this is the method. The game is to take turns spinning the slots to complete a sentence! So, Purple, which do you choose, first or second?"

In reality, the sentence is completed by probability, so it doesn't matter much who pulls the lever first.

But after a moment's thought, Lee Kyungbok decided to go second.

"Since I've been in the lead all day, this time I'll follow."

- Haha, so funny.

- Consistent spirit from start to finish!

- The level of confidence is beyond lethal!

- Haha, please open the windows.

- Confidence (it's true)

- Kyah! That's why streamers don't lose!

The chat was filled with reactions that bordered on convulsions. Ginom grabbed the lever.

"Great. Then I'll go first! Who will be the first word?"

With a creak, the lever was pulled down. The slot spun quickly with a whirring sound.

The first word that stopped.

[Purple]

Ginom clenched his fist in reaction.

"Wow!"

- Haha, so funny.

- Brother? Hide your true feelings a bit!

- Zawa Zawa~ Zawa Zawa~

- I don't know!

- Really, it's too early to get excited.

Ginom shrugged his shoulders lightly and stepped back at the chat reactions.

"Now, it's Purple's turn! What word will come out?"

"What should I do?"

Lee Kyungbok asked with a smile, and the chat was flooded with question marks and "haha."

- What? What are you hinting at?

- This is... self-promotion...?

- Is this a provocation from a two-week streamer?

- Haha, if it's Purple, he can choose.

- Haha, keep the broadcast going.

- Is the top streamer's position in danger?

"Wow, my head really went blank for a moment. Everyone, remember, you can't act up in front of Master Jang."

Ginom exaggeratedly shuddered and laughed.

- Huh? Why are you blaming us for your mistake?

- Ginom? I don't know such a person.

- Are you talking about Genome?

- Haha, I know the moderately generous Genome.

Lee Kyungbok was amazed at how Ginom continued to lead the broadcast's atmosphere and grabbed the lever.

With that, a different feeling was quickly transmitted, just like before.

- Why don't you pull it?

- Is he scared?

- Haha, it's out!

- Scared? That's not in GodPlay's vocabulary. Haha.

- Really, will it work this time too?

- Last time, he took his time too?

- A big one is coming... A big one is coming...

- Info: Purple pulled the golden shotgun in his first try in Back.

Ginom's viewers were curious, while Purple's viewers couldn't hide their anticipation.

"Wait, first try?"

Ginom was genuinely surprised.

He had played Bio Crisis before and knew about the golden shotgun.

He knew Purple had obtained the golden shotgun, but he didn't know it was in one try.

At that moment, his attention was drawn to the chat.

Lee Kyungbok suddenly pulled the lever.

"Ah?!"

Ginom's exclamation of surprise made the chat burst into laughter.

- What?

- What!?

- Ah?!

- Oh!

- 555555!

Everyone's attention was on the slot. The word that stopped was none other than:

[To Ginom]

- Ah

- Wow, Haha.

- Ah, what is this!

- Haha, Master Jang is human too!

- Even the gods can't beat luck!

- Streamers win no matter who wins. Haha.

The chat was already buzzing as if the game was over with the first two words. Ginom also showed a relaxed expression.

"Ah, I would like to lose, but I can't."

- So annoying, Haha.

- Trolling in front of the gods? I can't stand it. Haha.

- Really, you can't do it physically.

- You're a troll, Ginom!

- Short for Genome troll? Haha, I'll start!

- What's with Purple's calmness?

- As a god, his mental strength is solid. Haha.

The viewers didn't know, but Lee Kyungbok had nothing to lose. So, he could remain calm no matter the outcome.

"Hehe, I'm not the kind of person who eats my guests. There's still a chance for a comeback! Let's see how much the stakes will be!"

Ginom pulled the lever as he spoke.

'If it's big, that would be great.'

The number of subscription cards set was from 10 to 100. At 10,000 won per card, the minimum expenditure would be 100,000 won, and the maximum would be 1,000,000 won.

But Ginom didn't find the expenditure wasteful. On the contrary, the bigger the amount, the better it would spread by word of mouth.

It was actually a cheap marketing cost.

Meanwhile, the slot stopped.

"Wow."

Lee Kyungbok couldn't help but open his mouth at the result.

[100 subscription cards]

The highest number came out.

But Ginom wasn't particularly surprised.

'As expected.'

Originally, the probability was set to be higher for larger amounts.

"Wow, how much is this!? A million! A million won is at stake!"

Ginom's words filled the chat with cheers and enthusiastic emojis. It was a natural reaction since the benefit would go to them no matter who won.

"Now, the last one! The final word that will decide the fate! The outcome now depends on Purple! Will his luck also be in the realm of the Master of Masters, the realm of the gods?"

Ginom flicked his finger as he spoke. At the same time, a low drum sound echoed, and the spotlight focused on Purple.

'The main character of the stage should be the guest.'

In fact, Ginom had planned to hand over the final turn to Purple, whether he went first or second. If Purple had chosen to go first, he would have pretended to be a coward to pass the turn.

"We don't know the outcome yet! The only word for a comeback is in the last slot!"

- Huh??

- One is too few, isn't it?

- A host who takes advantage of the guest, here!

- Ye-rim! Show the slot!

- Sakura? Sakura?

- Cold. The subscription card flies and pierces the chest. So sweet.

- Haha, what a great line!

- So sweet, really. Haha.

Most viewers already thought the outcome was decided. The slowly spinning slot only showed words that hinted at Ginom's victory, such as "gives," "sends," and "throws."

'Even if I pay, it's a bit strange.'

Ginom felt puzzled as he looked at Lee Kyungbok in the chat.

As a streamer, he naturally cared about his image, and a bonus was still a bonus. A streamer who sensed defeat would naturally show a negative reaction.

However, despite the commotion around him, Lee Kyungbok calmly grabbed the lever.

'...Could he really think he can turn this around?'

The moment this thought crossed his mind, Lee Kyungbok pulled the lever with all his might. Everyone's eyes were on the spinning slot.

A moment of silence.

While everyone held their breath, Lee Kyungbok smiled faintly.

He already knew the result.

[Takes away]

The word that finally stopped in the slot.

"Ah...!"

Ginom let out a convulsive cry.

- Wow? Haha.

- Really, a comeback?

- Purple! Purple! Purple!

- I said a big one was coming!

- Haha, who doesn't follow GodPlay?

- Reply? No, I'm Purple!

- Haha, buy Purple coins right away!

- Now! Follow quickly!

- Haha, can't resist free stuff!

- Apostates OUT! Apostates OUT!

- The gods want subscription cards!

- Long live... no, Purple!

- Deus Vult! Deus Vult! Deus Vult!

The chat was filled with enthusiasm.

Ginom, not acting, genuinely exclaimed in surprise.

"No, you did this? Is this real? A real documentary? Not a hidden camera? How did you do it, Purple?"

"Just pulled it."

- Haha, really.

- Really, what else can you do with a slot machine?

- Perfect to the end.

- Denying reality doesn't change it. Haha.

- ???: Why not a tie?

- No way, Ginom. Haha.

- Absolutely! No way! Haha.

- Documentary? It's a complete variety show. Haha.

- So much fun. Haha.

- Master Jang is different, indeed. Haha.

Ginom, seeing the chat reactions, soon clutched his head and put on a gloomy face.

"Wow, a million won... Everyone, I want to be alone. Please leave."

- Haha, if you want to leave, you leave.

- Ginom, go home! We want to play with GodPlay!

- Being kicked out of your own broadcast, what a situation. Haha.

Lee Kyungbok smiled and looked at the viewers.

"Today was a valuable experience. Thank you for inviting me."

- Huh? Why are you leaving?

- Please don't leave me!

- Stay a bit longer!

- Ginom, just get lost already!

- Haha, move on to the next broadcast and recharge the subscription cards.

Despite the numerous requests from the viewers, Lee Kyungbok only smiled.

"Still, it's a break day, so I won't play games. My editor and manager need to rest too."

- Break day (work)

- Rest (work)

- This is the welfare of the black company Purple...?

- Early dismissal on break days?

- What an inhumane combination!

- Haha, this hostage situation is too strong.

Lee Kyungbok lightly clapped his hands to draw attention.

"Thank you for coming today. Look forward to the next broadcast and visit my channel often! Tuba!"

- Tuba! 😭

- I already miss you. (Tear)

- Wait, isn't this Ginom's broadcast?

- Haha, how natural.

- I thought it was Purple's broadcast. Haha.

With that, the broadcast ended.

* * *

Late at night, in a bar in a bustling area.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

"Cheers!"

The Purple team and the Ginom team celebrated the successful joint broadcast with a dinner.

"Order whatever you want. We'll pay for everything!"

"Really, if you say that, I'll really order."

"Control yourself a bit."

Ginom laughed at the playful exchange between Choi Byunghoon and Park Joo-ho, who gave a warning.

"It's fine. How much can three of you eat? Don't worry, eat a lot."

"Thank you."

"Sure, it's fine!"

"Phew..."

The three friends showed different reactions as they filled their stomachs. After some small talk, when they were somewhat full,

"Hey, I'll go talk to the editing team for a bit."

"Ah, I'll go check with the manager."

Choi Byunghoon and Park Joo-ho left their seats. Thanks to this, Lee Kyungbok was left alone with Ginom.

"Thanks to you, the broadcast went well. Thank you again."

"No, I also benefited a lot."

Ginom started the conversation. Lee Kyungbok lightly clinked glasses with him.

'He's a good person.'

Even during the pre-meeting, he didn't feel
