Chapter 80: Large-Scale Rampage Incident
“…D-US?”
“Yeah. That’s right. D-US.”
Jeong Nayeon nodded at Baek Woohyun’s question.
The viewer who set the mission this ti used the nickna D-US, and it was an affirmation aning they weren’t the Anonymous Viewer 62 he had hoped for.
Going further, she brought up the mission content and showed that the na D-US was stamped on it. Confirming that they were completely different people.
“See, it’s not them, right?”
“I guess so.”
Baek Woohyun was sowhat disappointed but on the other hand accepted it as an expected result. He had already predicted during the mission that it probably wasn’t them.
However, his thought was that whether the newly appeared D-US was related to Anonymous Viewer 62 or just an ordinary viewer was sothing to observe further.
Because the behavior of suddenly appearing and setting a mission without any chat didn’t seem ordinary at all.
Jeong Nayeon, on the other hand, was happy thinking it might be the appearance of a new big spender chairman.
“Oh, and.”
“…Yeah?”
“About the disciple content we’re preparing this ti.”
“What about it. Did so problem occur?”
“No, the opposite. It’s going too well. So well it’s almost a problem.”
Jeong Nayeon smiled brightly, saying application and recomndation emails were pouring in like crazy.
The fact that even applications were nurous, not just recomndations, really ant the Hackphysical disciple content was receiving trendous interest.
Unlike recomndations which were naturally nurous since so people just sent them in, applications required the broadcaster themselves to directly express their intention to participate.
“That’s why I was sorting emails with Seongcheol until just now. There are really so many that just checking them is difficult.”
“It definitely seems so.”
Just looking at the fatigue showing on Jeong Nayeon’s face, one could guess how many emails she was processing.
Of course, compared to Baek Woohyun who was occasionally tornted at night by nightmares and specters of his terrible past, she was in fine condition. Strictly speaking, compared to Baek Woohyun.
The very fact that she had to be compared to Baek Woohyun, who sported prominent dark circles, was proof of her fatigue.
“Well, anyway, it ans the disciple content is receiving a lot of interest, so it’s not a bad thing.”
Jeong Nayeon shrugged her shoulders saying what’s good is good, and continued.
“First, Seongcheol and I will check the emails and narrow down the candidates, then you can choose from there who you want to take as a disciple, Woohyun.”
In short, Cha Seongcheol and Jeong Nayeon would act as the primary filter to screen out problematic individuals, and Baek Woohyun would make the final choice.
In so ways, it might seem like the two were arbitrarily narrowing down candidates, but thinking from a content perspective, it was unavoidable.
It would be better than bringing soone with several scandals recorded or whose reputation wasn’t very good, only to beco fodder for gossip.
Moreover, Baek Woohyun had also declared he didn’t particularly care who he taught.
“Isn’t it too fast to go straight to final acceptance after docunt screening?”
“Then should we do an interview in between? Actually, I had a plan that included an interview. I dropped it thinking you’d find it botherso.”
When a response ca back saying there was a plan to the question thrown as a joke, Baek Woohyun blinked.
“What kind of plan was it?”
“I was thinking of selecting them like an audition program. Having candidate disciples perform missions you give them.”
“Hmm-“
“But I figured it would burden you since you’d have to run it, so I just scrapped it.”
This was Baek Woohyun who had refused broadcast appearances just because communication was awkward.
Would he participate if asked to beco an audition program judge and give missions to candidate disciples?
Jeong Nayeon was negative, and Cha Seongcheol felt the sa, so the two quietly buried the disciple audition plan they had briefly considered.
Though they were prepared to bring it back out anyti if Baek Woohyun showed interest.
“If you want, I can plan it again, what do you think?”
“Hmm. Keep it for now. Let
think about it more.”
“Got it! Think comfortably and let
know. Oh, and do you want to see the people we’ve narrowed down so far?”
“I want to see.”
Hearing Baek Woohyun’s imdiate answer, Jeong Nayeon put on an ‘I knew it’ expression and brought up several people’s profiles in the air.
Proving her words about the email inbox bursting weren’t exaggeration, even after filtering once, there were dozens of disciple candidates.
In the profiles listing nas, photos, and ‘Reverse Planet’ PVP tiers, videos presud to be their own gaplay were playing.
“……”
Baek Woohyun carefully examined the dozens of profiles. Not just looking at personal information and moving on, but ticulously watching even the gaplay videos.
He had no intention of only accepting talented people as disciples, but still, given the sa price, he wanted to take soone with great growth potential as his disciple like a red silk.
This was content he had already discussed with Jeong Nayeon and Cha Seongcheol. Naturally, both agreed with his opinion.
After all, having disciples grow rapidly made for better broadcast material.
‘Number 1 and Number 5 look good. Number 9 isn’t bad either.’
Fortunately, there were quite a few who caught his eye appropriately.
Like Number 1, a female broadcaster still only in Bronze tier but showing clear talent, or Number 5, a male broadcaster in Silver tier who only used close-range builds.
Number 9, a male broadcaster who was a Gold gatekeeper, seed to have potential to rise to at least Diamond, maybe even Master if a few bad habits were corrected.
However, Baek Woohyun didn’t think about choosing them, for a simple reason.
Unlike them who received lukewarm evaluations of being decent or not bad, there were others who could clearly be said to be excellent.
And even two of them.
‘Number 32, Number 33.’
Number 32, Silver tier female broadcaster ‘Jeong Areum.’
Number 33, Gold tier male broadcaster ‘Jeong Daun.’
The rare twins ‘Areum’ and ‘Daun’ instantly captured Baek Woohyun’s attention among the many profiles.
Naturally, it absolutely wasn’t because their skills were outstanding. They seed to have exactly the skill level of their tier. What you’d call locals, so to speak.
However, their talent was different. The light of talent visible only to Baek Woohyun was burning brightest among all the profiles.
Earlier, the Gold gatekeeper broadcaster was said to be at least Diamond? From what Baek Woohyun saw, these two seed capable of reaching at least Master.
Depending on how well they absorbed his teachings, Grand Master also seed possible.
“Number 32 and Number 33 look good.”
“Number 32, Number 33? You an the twin siblings?”
“Yeah. They really catch my eye.”
“Perfect! They’re actually the ones I was going to recomnd!”
Jeong Nayeon smiled broadly and listed the advantages of choosing the twin Areum Daun siblings.
“They’re already famous for being twin broadcasters. If we take them as disciples, the disciple content’s popularity will explode.”
“Definitely.”
“Plus, by teaching both male and female at the sa ti, we can show that your teaching doesn’t discriminate by gender.”
“Hmm.”
“The ‘Areum, Daun’ siblings are famous as rivals, so it’ll be good to watch them compete over who ranks up first.”
At the advantages flowing like water, Baek Woohyun quietly nodded.
Of course, he chose them not for the reasons Jeong Nayeon ntioned, but simply because their talent shone—but well, isn’t what’s good just good?
He should be happy that those talented enough to take as disciples were also helpful for broadcasting.
“Good. First, let’s keep the Areum Daun siblings as strong candidates, and next-“

–Kyaang!
What greeted Baek Woohyun upon logging into ‘Reverse Planet’ was the barking sound of a Lightning Wolf.
As if happy about his appearance, the puppy ran back and forth at his feet barking kyaang kyaang. Who would think this was a Lightning Wolf from the Reverse World seeing this?
To begin with, just the barking sound seed a million light-years away from the Lightning Wolves that growled or howled.
“……”
–Kyaang kyaang!
Baek Woohyun sat down and grabbed the puppy to examine it, and the creature squird as if ticklish.
From its size that fit in both hands, one could tell this creature still needed considerable ti to beco a proper Lightning Wolf. Or experience points.
Either way, it seed difficult to beco an imdiate asset. Unless he planned to involve a creature no different from a puppy in battle.
-“So cute~ The kyaang kyaang is totally cute~”
-“Makes
want to raise one.”
-???? Cute
-Dogs really are cuter than cats
-I am pretty cute hehe
-? Who’s the crazy person above
‘Nothing special.’
The information about the Lightning Wolf he checked at Jeong Nayeon’s advance request didn’t have particularly special content.
Just because it was the first pet obtained didn’t an it had any amazing effects, and the content itself was similar to pets other people obtained after the recent pet system update.
To begin with, pets seed designed simply as mounts and battle assistance, so powerful effects weren’t given.
“……”
–Kyaang kyaang!
Baek Woohyun put down the Lightning Wolf he had picked up and stood up.
The pet would eat experience points and grow on its own anyway, so there was nothing he could do for it right now.
So he’d just do what he always had to do.
Just as he concluded that and was about to move toward Otherworld Managent Bureau headquarters.
Beeeeeep─!
An ear-splitting warning sound erupted from inside Baek Woohyun’s pocket. A sound loud enough to be called noise pollution.
Despite the sudden situation being enough to cause confusion, he calmly pulled out his smartphone to check with a sunken expression. It was behavior born from experience ‘over there.’
If he rembered correctly, the warning sound currently ringing was a ‘Reverse World Rampage’ alert.
[Sender: Otherworld Managent Bureau*

-“Huh? Wait. A Reverse World rampage?”
-“A Reverse World rampage already appearing? Really?”
-How will the story go with this happening ????????
-Seems like it’s about to change for real
-Actually when Kim Hana appeared, the original story was already gone
-???????? Now who knows what’ll co out
‘A rampage incident as expected.’
“…Tsk.”
Baek Woohyun clicked his tongue at the content exactly as expected and tried to put his smartphone back in his pocket.
He would have, if only the smartphone wasn’t going crazy vibrating while spitting out overlapping beeeep─! warning sounds.
While sirens wailed around him, he quietly looked down at the smartphone that had beco a noise bomb itself.
