2nd Round Carry As a Supporter - Chapter 200
Only Ranovel
Episode 200: People who stay, people who leave
One month after the sold cup finals.
There was an event where pro gamers gathered in one place.
that’s right
[Retirement Ceremony for World Championship-winning jungler Kang “Tommy” Yoon-chan]
Yoon Chan-yi hyung’s retirement ceremony.
Yoon Chan-yi hyung announced his retirement as he had promised.
“I wanted to leave when I was clapping all the time. I thought it would be refreshing to leave after accomplishing something. This is what I promised after failing to win the Sold Cup three years ago. And today, I am able to keep that promise. um, ahaha Oh, this is awkward. I wrote the script, but I forgot it all.”
A retirement ceremony lavishly arranged by Sharp Blaze.
Yunchan hyung, who was holding the microphone on stage, kept laughing as if he was awkward.
“Anyway, I’m really happy and grateful to be able to leave after reaching the top spot. Actually, I am really lacking, but I was lucky enough to meet good people.”
Saying that, Yoon Chan-i hyung turned his head.
Soon, our Sharp Blaze team gathered together and our eyes met.
“Don’t retire, Yunchan hyung! Uh heh heh heh…”
OK.
Jong-kwon suddenly bursts into tears.
Normally, it would have been a very sad atmosphere.
When that guy made a strange noise and cried, laughter burst out on the scene.
“Because I met younger siblings who thought of me like that. To be very honest, I had no expectations when I joined the Sharp Blaze. Probably no one expected it. That we would rule the world.”
It’s as Yoon Chan hyung said.
Part 2 Sharp Blaze called the Underworld Spirit.
The team members gathered there are all screwed up somewhere.
Even I didn’t have any expectations.
However, all players did not stop improving until the Sold Cup period.
We finally won the Summoner’s Cup as a team.
“They say that if the liner is good, the jungler is comfortable. I think this win is entirely thanks to my teammates. It was because he made me, who was only runner-up as a replacement member three years ago, into a winning jungler. My progaming career ends here, but I am not sad at all because I have five really good younger siblings.”
clap clap clap-
shower of applause.
After the official retirement ceremony was over.
Yunchan, who came towards us, said to his brother.
“I would be fine with one more year. Then we can aim for the Asian Games as well.”
In fact, after the Sold Cup finals, I held back Yoon Chan-yi hyung from retiring several times.
If you win a gold medal at the Asian Games next year, you can achieve military exemption.
If it was Yunchan hyung’s form now, it was worth taking a look at.
“Ahaha. To be honest, I haven’t thought about it.”
Yunchan hyung laughed and said.
“But my playing career ends here. As a player who was boiling inside of me, it feels like the passion has faded. I don’t think I’ll do well if I force myself to do more.”
but.
Yunchan hyung changed everything with the conviction that this year was his last.
As a result, he won the Sold Cup.
Seeing Yunchan hyung retiring like this makes me think of many things.
I also never drew after winning the Sold Cup.
I wondered what it would feel like to achieve my lifelong goal.
I have never imagined or wondered what it would feel like after achieving it.
To be honest, I thought about whether or not to retire.
“Don’t go, Yunchan hyung. Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Jongkwon is still dragging along.
I looked at him and sighed deeply.
“Why is Yunchan hyung leaving? You’re still on the team anyway.”
“Yeah, but… huh.”
Even though Yoon Chan-i hyung retired as a player.
I’m not leaving the e-sports scene at all.
He was re-recruited by the Sharp Blaze as a dedicated jungle coach.
“Yeah, but brother. Didn’t he say he had to go to the army?”
“It’s hard to go to the army these days, right? I think I still have 1-2 years to spare. In the meantime, I want to try my hand at coaching.”
Although my passion as a player is over.
Is your life as a coach starting now or something?
and.
Who is our team’s new jungler, coached by Yunchan hyung?
“Okay, thank you. Coach.”
“Take it easy, Gilsu. You can just call me older brother.”
[Sharp Blaze, Air Mall Blackwings jungler ‘Parker’ Gil-soo Koh fills the vacancy left by Tommy]
It was Parker who played in the air mall.
I gave a lot of opinions on this recruitment.
During the 2nd round of summer, he showed a very good figure compared to the team’s performance, as if he had awakened.
I was sure that if Yunchan hyung’s coaching was added, he would definitely grow into a great jungler.
“Hey, Gilsu. do you have a girlfriend?”
Parker, or Ko Gil-soo, is the same age as Sang-min.
After receiving a sudden question from Sangmin hyung, Gilsu hyung widened his eyes.
“No, I don’t have one.”
“That, is it? You pass.”
“that’s right! Dating is a luxury for a pro gamer!”
Jong-kwon, who had been procrastinating, suddenly intervened.
“By the way, Mighty player… No, Kyu-oh is dating Euna-nim, right?”
Then, Jong-kwon and Sang-min hyung looked at me.
“Lee Kyu Oh!”
“Kyu, Kyu-oh is Kyu-oh.”
Then Gilsu-hyung replied as if he was confused.
“What the hell does that mean?”
Soon, Isak put his hand on Gilsu’s shoulder.
“I am a person who is called a genius of hard work, and I have tried very hard to date a girlfriend, right? But there are things in the world that can’t be done no matter how hard you try.”
hmm.
Because Isaac hyung, who broke my limits with hard work, said something like that.
The sound is very different.
“Hey Jong Kwon. Come to think of it, are you meeting Siyeon well?”
“hmm? Nice to meet you! The other day, we went to a PC room together. He said he wanted to learn to brush! Hey, but when I go to a PC room, don’t the fans recognize me? This sieve tower, Hwang Jong-kwon!”
“… you will never be able to date for the rest of your life.”
“Oh, why is it a curse all of a sudden!”
I heard from Eun-ah that Si-yeon fell in love with Jong-kwon.
It seems that Jong-kwon didn’t notice.
That guy too.
He has a knack for kicking the fortune that rolls in.
“ah.”
at that time.
Sangmin hyung is startled when he suddenly sees his cell phone.
“What’s wrong?”
“Go, notice.”
The news is right.
[Team Sharp Blaze (Official)’s Sweet:
Free Agent Notice
Thanks You, Creator
The best period in the history of the Sharp Blaze club.
The contract with mid laner ‘Creator’ Jomulju has ended.
We will never forget the dedication and hard work the creator player showed to the team.
I sincerely hope that the future of your career as a player will be filled with only shining moments.]
[Flame Passion Shin Joo-yeop’s Sweet:
Sharp Blaze’s eternal emperor and secret weapon
to creator players
infinite thanks
A creator player who led the team to victory at every important moment..
#Always #In our hearts #Forever #ThanksCreator]
In many ways, it will be a sad day for our fandom.
Following the news of Yoon Chan-yi hyung’s retirement.
Because the water owner has left the team.
In fact, the club offered the owner a new contract with an annual salary of 100 million won.
Even with a multi-year contract.
However, the landlord’s brother declined the offer.
Actually, it is unavoidable.
Because no one wants to remain as a bench member.
and.
Although the transfer was decided.
There is no reason for Mulju hyung not to come to Yoon Chan Yi hyung’s retirement ceremony.
“Ooh, spy. Boo!”
Jong-kwon booing at the water owner hyung after he went to the bathroom.
In fact, even if you say it like that, the day the water owner decided to leave the team.
You don’t know how much he cried as he held on to the pitcher.
Please don’t go, I was sobbing while grabbing the hem of my pants, so I said everything.
Of course, the water owner was very sorry.
I thought about it several times.
In the end, I didn’t break my resolve.
“The next time we meet, I won’t look at you.”
“Yeah, but I was worried because I couldn’t find a place to look for it. You’ve got a good team. That, just stay.”
“What team would not take this emperor, secret weapon, Sold Cup winning mid laner and owner of the Akalin skin?”
“Now, since self-praise is getting longer, it gets really ugly.”
“Hey, you’re the real Bae Sang-min…”
Although Sang-min hyung always quarreled with Mulju-hyung.
Actually, the day the water owner hyung took out his luggage from the dorm.
I saw him weeping in secret.
Since the two of them are roommates, the empty seat must feel bigger.
Pretending otherwise, Sangmin-hyung especially took care of the water owner hyung more.
But it’s not even that sad.
It is very common for pro gamers to change teams every year.
Besides, the owner of the water eventually went to a good team.
[Square Gaming, Vanguard-Quasar Centered Rebuilding Declaration! Announcement of contract termination with JB-Cthulhu-Taktak]
[Stove League’s big hand, Square Gaming, catches big fish in a row! The first is Sold Cup Champion mid laner ‘Creator’ Creator]
[Square Gaming’s Sweet:
Welcome, Creator
The world champion mid laner and the emperor himself!
‘Creator’ Jomulju has joined Square Gaming as a new mid laner!
Please support the creator player who will write a new legend together with Square Gaming in the future.]
A lot of things happened in this Stove League.
Square Gaming embarks on a Quasar and Vanguard-centric rebuild.
Thanks to that, Acorn-Vanguard-Creator-Dogma-Quasar.
He was aiming to win the Sold Cup again by sweeping away all the S-class listings in the market.
It was a surprise for me too.
I didn’t know that Dogma would come out of LGS Telecom.
I didn’t even know that I would move to Square Gaming.
Originally destined to go to LGS, Acorn went to Square Gaming for some reason.
Since the team members are so good, it must have been difficult to refuse.
“You can do just fine there. Because you were Sharp Blaze’s mid laner.”
Isaac’s older brother hugged the water juggler.
Mulju hyung, who was the original member, is leaving.
Isak, who joined from the 2nd round of summer, is left behind.
The two grew up watching each other, were stimulated, and finally lifted the trophy together.
They are each other’s teachers and rivals.
“Um, even when I was unloading my luggage at the dorm, I couldn’t speak properly because we were bickering.”
Soon, the water owner scratched the nape of his neck as if embarrassed.
Then, as if he had made up his mind, he gulped down his saliva.
He bent his back at 90 degrees and said.
“Thank you so much to all of you. I owe you a lot.”
He is a water owner hyung who always acts rudely, grasps concepts, and bluffs.
This is probably the first sincerity that the water owner showed us.
That’s why it was written with respect.
To think that it came out at the moment of parting, really.
“…”
It was a team that was quiet for a while.
“Wow, look at the way you use honorifics for going to another team.”
“It’s great to draw a line!”
“Uh, uh huh. I already cut my hand.”
“No, sir! Even if these humans say thank you, it’s a mess, very!”
Soon, as usual, they started arguing.
but.
This ‘as usual’ will end today.
Thinking like that makes me feel strange.
“Thank you, water man. I will never forget the one year I spent with my brother.”
I also spoke with all my heart.
Then the water owner hyung laughed and pointed at me.
“As a Square Gaming player, I will definitely defeat you, this devil-like guy.”
“Then what is the role of the hero?”
really.
The same nobleman until the very end.
“Bye.”
“huh. Be well. I will never forget going to the pizza parlor in America with you.”
“I think we can forget about that.”
10 years in a previous life.
In fact, parting was very easy and simple for me.
An extension of business that doesn’t evoke any emotions.
however.
Saying good-bye to people you really loved.
I realize now that it is very bitter and painful.
*
After Yoon Chan-yi hyung’s retirement ceremony was over.
I was outside for a while getting some fresh air.
“Congratulations on winning the Sold Cup.”
The person who talks to me suddenly.
It was a quasar.
“thank you.”
“Um, sorry. I couldn’t keep my promise. And thank you. Thank you for bringing the Summoner’s Cup back to the SCK.”
The true quasar is still there.
Do you still care about that?
So the two of us stood for a while without saying anything.
and then.
“I thought, of course, that Square Gaming would be the one to recreate the glory of SCK. We were the last sold cup winning team in SCK, and for several years after that, we were called SCK’s strongest team. Then, a team called Sharp Blaze appeared. And they succeeded in winning the Sold Cup faster than we did.”
It’s like releasing a hidden story.
Quasar speaks in a calm tone.
“Mighty player. How does it feel to win the Sold Cup?”
I was also very curious.
How would you feel if you reached the top of the world?
Whether you’re happy, sad, thrilled, or futile.
but.
There is only one thing that comes to mind right now.
“I don’t know anything else, I want to win one more.”
It’s not that my enthusiasm has waned.
Rather, it burns even more.
Gone are the days of just blindly hoping for a championship.
I have a clearer motivation.
with nice people.
in front of loved ones.
I want to prove again that I am the best player.
“Next year, the biggest competitor will definitely be Mighty.”
I don’t know how Quasar felt about my answer.
but.
He smiled and held out his hand to me.
“All this year, I have been greatly inspired and grown by watching Mighty. Hopefully we can do that again next year.”
“yes.”
I answered by holding his hand.
“I will win again next year.”
Then it seemed like I couldn’t.
Quasar laughed and shook his head.
“Enough then.”
After a while.
“Kyung!”
A familiar voice calling me.
Eun-ah runs to me and takes me in my arms.
Eun-ah seems to have a habit of hugging me these days.
“Now they say they’re having a retirement party? My family is here too! My dad already took a selfie with a shotgun player, isn’t it crazy? Oh, and Eunhyuk skipped the academy and came after me, so my mother gets angry again…”
Those little lips that chatter.
In my previous life, I just felt distant.
He finally said goodbye to me.
but now.
“Let’s go! Everyone wait.”
tell me to come along
reach out a hand
“huh. let’s go.”
I held Eun-ah’s hand.
really.
It was warm again.
