Chapter 107
Genius Representative is a title that had come to be associated with Lee Shin ever since Mir Guild began writing its legend. Was it something made up by Yongbung-i? Surprisingly, no.
― Genius? You call this guy a genius? Where do you live?
― ???: Could you put Mountain King in a League 4 guild that was on life support?
― ???: From League 4 all the way to Round 103, he swapped every head with Mir Guild, that’s him.
― ???: Have you ever tried discovering a teenage world-class duo? Wanna taste what world-class prospects are like?
Еn̄ u m̆ ǎ
To Yongbung-i, Lee Shin was religion, was God.
How dare a mere human measure up to such a great deity—outrageous.

However, that was just the perspective of the Yongbung-i, heavily intoxicated on Lee Shin worship. For the general audience, the majority, the “Genius Representative” was received more as a meme.
― Recognize his face genius, lol.
― And his thinking genius, hahaha.
― His flexes are genius too, Mountain King one-time purchase, kya~
Е̌n ŭ m̈ ā
To ordinary people, Lee Shin was someone who handled controversies well, unpredictable, and fun to watch. That was about all the image people had of him.
Adding to that, he had recruited Mountain King, and a little more, he was the lucky representative who got the monsters Park Su-bin and Yu Rira.
The reason Lee Shin’s broadcast was criticized before this match was all because of that.
No one expected him to have magical insight or strategist qualities, yet he suddenly spouted about awakening probabilities, strategies, and so on.

Especially his strategic insight received harsh criticism.
Some of the best comments included:
En̈ŭm̆а̃ .і̌ ḋ
└ (Best) You call him a genius? He really thinks he’s a genius?
└ (Best) Don’t act up, Mountain King is here. Who are you to talk strategy? Are you the raid leader? Huh?
In truth, this wasn’t solely Lee Shin’s problem.
Historically, it was rare for a representative to touch raid operations and strategies and get anything good from it.
The raid was the hunter’s domain, the front was the business domain, and the representative’s role was to harmoniously connect and take responsibility for both.
Yet if the guild was doing well, he acted as if he were Zhuge Liang himself, pretending to be a strategist, talking about the “15-minute” something—how ridiculous.

Even Lee Shin’s Yongbung supporters felt that way about this issue.
― Hyung…… no, right……?
― The raid has Mountain King. Lee Shin hyung, let’s just do what we do well. ^^
― I… I think strategy… should be left to Mountain King……
Both those who didn’t support Lee Shin and those who did were skeptical.
When the match started, everyone’s reaction was:
Е̇ ñ ú ṁă. і̃ d̈
: Huh……?
: Why is it going exactly as Lee Shin said?

: No way, don’t lie lol;; what is this;;
Lee Hye-jeong’s tearful struggle, teamwork, and sharp execution.
Putting all that aside.
Everything Lee Shin said happened. And they won.
Ẇeb̄ nо̃v e ľ Е n̆ü m а̂
That was all there was.
: 15 minutes…… 15 minutes…… 40 minutes…… Victory……?
: Dizzy, is this a dream……?
Fine. Let’s say once is just a fluke; people can make mistakes.

Honestly, the first set was rough, admit it? Yup, agree!
Everyone chalked it up to coincidence and waited for the next set……
Wеb nо̊ v̈ е l Еn ǔm̌ а̄
─ “Again! Again!! Same pattern!! Bi-yeon’s Seven-Star Sword only destroys the neutral jungle but misses Lee Hye-jeong!!”
─ “Ah! Was the learning from set 1 incomplete?! I told you not to follow Lee Hye-jeong!!”
─ “Ah!! Again!! Baeksa Guild loses objectives pointlessly in the same pattern!!”
Again! Again!! Again!!
No fight within 15 minutes.
One major objective within 15 minutes.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
This simple strategy, fewer than 20 words, worked again, without a single word off.
: Seriously, what the hell.
: I’m losing it lol.
: Should we say Lee Shin’s prophecy hit, or that Baeksa Guild is just a hopeless bunch of idiots.
Once is a fluke, twice is skill.
The funny part? This applied to Lee Shin himself, the one everyone had criticized.
Е n̆ u̇m̄a.id
You could dismiss the first as a lucky strike or a surprising strategy, but the second, hitting exactly as predicted, made all the harsh criticism vanish.
At that moment, the Yongbung-i supporters came in with small but enthusiastic cheers.

: Kyaa! I believed in this god!
: That’s why they call him the genius representative.
: Oh! Genius leader, to the super ultra god-god!
Gradually.
E ṅ u m̃ а̌
: I’m starting to get a scary thought…… were we the ones unaware all along……?
: Me, clueless about the guild?!
Very slowly.
: It’s kind of funny lol, the leader of the undefeated 103-round guild couldn’t possibly not know strategy.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
: Hahaha, slyly treating this round as a win already?
Public opinion in the chat slowly but surely began to shift.
Ӗ nů m а
Thus, once again, Mir Guild maintained a 0:0 kill score for 30 minutes with miraculous execution.
The previous, similar atmosphere may have created pressure. It could be Bi-yeon’s impatience thinking this couldn’t continue, or maybe both reasons.
The important thing: Bi-yeon and Baeksa Guild couldn’t hold back and pressed the happy button first.
─ “Baeksa Guild hovering in front of Hydra, are they attacking?! Are they seriously attacking?!”
─ “Y-Yes!! White Snake Guild attacks Hydra!!”
─ “A very bold move! If they secure this buff, they can completely turn the game, but if they fail, there’s no turning back!”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
─ “It seems it’s already too late to turn back! Whether succeed or fail, they must attack!!”
The casters and analysts were baffled at this gamble based on such flimsy reasoning.
If they were surprised by such reckless play, then Mir Guild’s previous first-place ranks didn’t make sense. Naturally.
─ “Lee Hye-jeong spreads smoke, creating chaos as Park Jeong-seok and Park Su-bin rush in to break formations.”
─ “Right, left! Forcibly tearing through the opponent’s defenses!”
─ “Mountain King grabs the river! AoE CC explodes! All vision paralyzed in an instant!!”
Wéb n̊ оvе̂l Ẽ nům̆a
─ “Here he comes! He’s coming!”
─ “Yu Rira! Leaps into the sky, becoming a white flash!”

The “15 minutes without a fight” everyone mocked was achieved entirely by sacrificing Lee Hye-jeong.
The “objectives without engagement” that some expert had said was impossible was accomplished by Park Su-bin’s force and Mountain King’s command.
And in the late game, Yu Rira, steadily building kills, finished it off!
Even watching it with his own eyes, it was incomprehensible.
Е̊ num̊.ӓ
The game proceeded exactly as Lee Shin had predicted, eerily, and Mir Guild claimed victory.
It was absurd, but a strange confidence arose that the remaining 3 sets would unfold just like sets 1 and 2, according to Lee Shin’s prophecy.
By the time the Nexus was destroyed, all the criticism of Lee Shin in the chat had vanished.
And what filled the space was “Perhaps?”.

: Maybe he really is the Genius Representative?

LeeDO Group Chairman’s Office.
Lee Sang-byeok was sharing soju with Yoo Cheol-ong for the first time in a while. The snacks were the master’s kimchi he had been receiving for 60 years as a regular, and on the company’s new 150-inch TV, the Second LeeDo Derby was being broadcast.
─ “Mir Guild! A 3:0 shutout against Baeksa Guild!!”
─ “Amazing! Incredible! Lee Hye-jeong’s fighting spirit! The guild’s synergy! And, most importantly, Lee Shin’s strategist talent! Mir Guild takes so much from this victory!!”
Lee Sang-byeok couldn’t hide his sneer.
“……Do the commentators have knots in their eyes? Strategist talent? To me, it looks like the opponent was just prideful and self-destructed. That’s Se-jeong’s family over there, right?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“That’s correct.”
“Tsk tsk.”
It was a disappointing performance. The two characters ‘LeeDo’ in LeeDo Derby felt almost wasted.
“He’s done for, right?”
“…….”
“Speak frankly.”
Ё ń u.mа ..і̆ d
“His weaknesses were exposed too clearly by Young Master Lee Shin. Now other guilds will adopt this strategy against Baeksa Guild. They’ll first try it with the talent they have, and if not, they’ll recruit similar hunters.”
“Then there’s nothing more to see.”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Lee Sang-byeok popped a bite of rolled kimchi into his mouth and spoke.
“Add it to the summary list.”
“Understood.”
With that casual remark, the fate of Baeksa Guild was sealed. They had already been given two years’ worth of chances.
Е̃ṅu.mа . ï d̃
Chewing kimchi, he turned his attention away from Baeksa Guild. Now Lee Sang-byeok’s interest shifted to Mir Guild.
“Really, a strategist, heh. What are you seeing in that rascal? Haha.”
“He was excellent, wasn’t he?”
Yoo Cheol-ong filled the glass in front of Lee Sang-byeok and continued.

“It was a perfect counter, fully analyzing the opponent’s tendencies. Rather than the overall strategy, he focused on individuals, on the human itself—a strategy befitting Young Master Lee Shin, who has extraordinary insight into people.”
“Isn’t that too much of a post-facto evaluation?”
Е̌ ńu̇ṁ а
“Precisely the highest praise. The result has come from your mouth, Chairman.”
“……You know me too well.”
He didn’t think about the process. Only the result.
That was Lee Sang-byeok’s principle.
Hence, being called post-facto praise was his way of giving the highest compliment.
Evidence of this: unknowingly, a smile had appeared on his face. He was very satisfied with the result that rascal had achieved.

“Do you believe it!!”

________________________________________
Meanwhile, in an office in Seoul, Lee Jaepyo received a phone call from the PD of the morning broadcast.
“Hey, PD. Can you tell me again? Starting tomorrow, what did you say?”
― “I told you that you don’t need to come to the studio from tomorrow.”
Е́ n ū m а
“This is absurd. Up until yesterday, the recordings went fine, and suddenly, overnight, this notice… Where in the world has this happened?”
― “I’m sorry.”
“Tell me the reason. Why am I being cut? It’s not because of a pittance. You’re not the type to do something so unreasonable, PD.”
― “I’m sorry.”

It wasn’t an apologetic tone at all.
It was full of annoyance and irritation, as if saying, ‘If an old man’s this bad, just get out quietly.’
Е̂ n ů mа . i d̀
A little later, after saying sorry five times, the call ended, and Lee Jaepyo’s bald head turned bright red with anger like a boiled octopus.
“That brat kept pestering me. How dare he ignore me!”
Once the anger subsided, a wave of helplessness came.
Why was he cut? What caused this? He slumped on the sofa pondering, and the answer came surprisingly close.
On the office desk, scattered newspapers showed headlines:
[Mir Guild shuts out Baeksa Guild!]

[‘You think I don’t know strategy?’ Lee Shin’s prediction hits the mark.]
[MVP Lee Hye-jung, everything goes according to Lee Shin: “I predicted every reaction. Playing gave me goosebumps the whole time.”]
[No longer a meme. Truly a genius le…]
Papak!
He hated even looking at it.
Anger flared again, and he used his magic to blow the newspaper away.
Е̇ ñum ӑ .і d̆
“Just for touching that brat, this is what happens?”
Although they said it was due to unavoidable circumstances, everyone knew, including him, that it was backlash from touching Lee Shin.

Of course, Lee Jaepyo still didn’t consider what he said as criticism. He saw it as justified critique.
“It’s the end times, the end times. A broadcasting station cuts someone for criticism, a newspaper makes a fuss over a random coincidence. South Korean media works just fine.”
True words indeed, but what had that brat done? He just happened to line things up correctly.
Not engaging within 15 minutes? Who doesn’t know that the opponent’s rush-concept tactic is just avoiding fights?
Е̂nǔ ḿ ӓ
Similarly, “Acquire a large objective within 15 minutes” was as obvious as saying “that’s salty” while looking at seawater.
In the Rift, getting buffs and removing debuffs was that important……
───This was the self-justification of an old man, who manipulated his own memory out of greed.
Just a few days ago, he had said, “Are you avoiding fights just because you want to?” “It’s ridiculous, I’m ashamed.” Yet now he so easily edited his memory… If anyone had seen him, their face would have burned in embarrassment.

Of course, Lee Jaepyo did not admit it this time either.
“Hmph, we’ll see how long that lasts.”
Е nù mа..і́d
He slumped down, turned on the TV, and saw:
[It exploded! True Awakening triggered!!]
[J says, “My son awakened thanks to Lee Shin’s ‘Resonance Method’!!”]
“??!!”
From then on, Lee Jaepyo was never seen on TV again.
