Park Sijun slapped his thigh while watching the video.
“To think such content exists!”
Just thinking about it, he could hear the view counts boiling over.
Who would dare to challenge it?
It had been planned many tis. Six years ago, from the mont dungeons first appeared. It wasn’t even fresh. ‘Dojo Breaking’—or running the gauntlet—was a common trope in RPGs.
It was even popular in AOS gas. Smashing through opponents 1-on-1, starting from the lowest tier users all the way to the top.
If you searched Kim Buja’s video channel, you could find a few such videos.
But it couldn’t be found in dungeons. Despite being such a common idea.
Why? Because even with all sorts of preparations and cheats, success was impossible.
So, there were many videos that only proceeded up to Normal, Rare, or Epic grades. Even those videos attracted a lot of interest.
It wasn’t simply because they were entertainnt-focused. It was because there were many people who didn’t know the specifics.
Normal, Rare, Epic, Unique, Special, Legendary.
What were the differences in dungeons according to each grade?
If one looked hard enough, they could find many summarized posts in communities, but personally feeling the difference by watching an organized video was a different field altogether.
As the limit of such videos usually ended at Epic, or at most Unique, the Dojo Breaking concept was eventually used by many users to prove their own and their party’s skills rather than for entertainnt content.
Even that died out at so point.
It couldn’t be helped. Even with video editing, it was too long.
Normal dungeons alone often took several days minimum, so when moving on to Rare and Epic where penalties were applied, one faced situations where worrying about clearing took precedence over the penalties themselves.
He had pulled that concept out. And under the title of challenging all the way to Legendary.
Normally, people would have cursed him not to draw aggro. But this was Kim Buja. He hung this mission on his very first dungeon strategy video after entering 2-Star dungeons.
As a user who cleared a 1-Star Legendary solo, heads tilted in wonder.
“Will it work?”
And then this thought occurred: ’For so reason, it feels like it might.’
Nevertheless, common sense and stereotypes shook their heads.
“Even so, 1-Star and 2-Star are different.”
The level of monsters rises by exactly 0.5 grades in difficulty. Instead, the scale of the dungeon and the number of appearing monsters jump by at least double. That was the biggest reason why even Normal dungeons took days.
Even Park Sijun hadn’t been able to challenge Rare dungeons yet.
A sense of envy arose needlessly. At the sa ti, he painted a picture in his head.
’If I shoot a video like that, the views would seriously be a jackpot. Subscribers would increase a lot too.’
It was a subject attractive enough that even Park Sijun, who pulled all sorts of stunts to gain attention to the point of repeating the sa phrases, felt drawn to it.
’Can’t I participate?’
’If I ask, will I just suffer humiliation for no reason?’
Just thinking about the insults he was still eating in the community comnts made him frown automatically.
Even so, if it were at all possible, he had the desire to join no matter how much he had to pay. But thinking about it rationally, it didn’t seem likely Kim Buja would accept.
“I won’t do it. If I get tangled up with that guy again and get ripped off, I’m not Park Sijun, I’m a dog.”
Then, he got a ssage.
“What is this?”
It was from Kim Buja, asking to et for a mont.

Kim Buja waved his hand and welcod him warmly at a coffee shop.
Park Sijun sat down with a straight face.
“Long ti no see?”
“What’s going on?”
“Didn’t you co knowing what it is?”
“What? The 2-Star Dungeon Dojo Breaking?”
It was a picture completely opposite to the situation just a few months ago, where Sijun sought Kim Buja for video views.
Park Sijun reacted this way because he also knew enough about Kim Buja. Even in a tug-of-war, he ended up being the one losing out; it was actually better to film from behind in his own way and include content about Kim Buja later.
It was the sa this ti.
Although tempted, Park Sijun wasn’t desperate. Raising his recognition through a video channel was ultimately a part of self-satisfaction.
He was a third-generation chaebol. Except for the fact that he still lagged behind Kim Buja, he lived a life lacking nothing.
Of course, Kim Buja knew how to handle a Park Sijun who comforted himself like that.
“Do you have a Legendary item?”
“You crazy bastard. Where would I get sothing like that?”
Park Sijun shook his head at the sudden question.
It was an out-of-the-blue remark, but he grasped the intention clearly. The calculation ended in an instant.
No, even if it was a profitable deal, he didn’t have a Legendary item.
“I won’t do it. Even if you tell to give you a shield and get carried on the bus, I won’t ride.”
No matter how much he liked receiving attention, he wouldn’t go as far as giving up his weapon just to get carried through a dungeon. Nor could he gain a profit equivalent to it through that thod.
An amount exceeding trillions was a sum untouchable even for Park Sijun.
“Really? Then it can’t be helped. I gave you a chance since our connection is quite deep, but if you’re not interested, forget it. I’m going.”
“What?”
The upper limit Park Sijun expected was around a Special grade item.
But before the conversation could even reach that point, Kim Buja left his seat.
There wasn’t even ti to say anything. He left without a shred of lingering regret, making Park Sijun wonder if he had missed an opportunity by being greedy instead of declining.
“What is with that crazy bastard?”
’It’s ridiculous.’
’He’s doing that on purpose to rip off more money, right?’
He waited, but Kim Buja did not contact him again.
One day passed, then two.
This remained the case even up until Kim Buja uploaded the video announcing the start of his Ti Attack.
