Moments ago.

Yoon Seah, at the forefront with Akari, fought valiantly, taking down dozens of players, but…

“I’ve got you now!”

In the end, she conceded distance.

“Kill her!”

Japanese players, with infuriated expressions, drew their weapons.

Akari put up a good fight but couldn’t block every player approaching.

Swoosh!

A gleaming blade lunged towards Yoon Seah.

However,

Ssshh!

“Bye-bye~”

Yoon Seah stuck out her tongue playfully as she stepped into the veil of void.

The blade sliced nothing but the empty air.

“What…….”

Then, out of thin air, only her bow appeared.

Twang!

The bowstring snapped, and a Japanese warrior was pierced through.

Seong Jihan had disappeared, and everybody thought the first set was a loss.

But unexpectedly, Yoon Seah, joining the national team for the first time today, demonstrated a surprising performance.

Viewers from both nations had polarized reactions.

-Seong Jihan disappeared, why…?

-What are the Japanese warriors doing? Can’t they handle one girl who’s debuting today?

-Come on, win the first match!

-Are they seriously going to waste the chance Mizuhara created…?

With the game evening out after Seong Jihan’s disappearance, where Japanese viewers had briefly harbored hope, now they despaired.

-I didn’t know Yoon Seah was such a good player!

-Wow, really… these are some messed-up plays lol!!

-What was that? She can even dodge attacks from national-level players?

-Is she hacking?

Korean viewers, ready to concede the first game, were enthused, feeling like a new hero had joined their team.

And so, unable to suppress Yoon Seah, the Japanese team increasingly found their numerical advantage shrinking.

Ssssh…

As Seong Jihan appeared out of nowhere, their expressions turned to despair.

“Se-Seong Jihan… He’s back!”

“Mizuhara is…”

“She’s not here… was she taken down?”

“Da-dammit…! We should have finished it before he came back!”

“Let’s… Let’s head for the fortress for now!”

As Seong Jihan appeared, the Japanese team began to back away.

Despite all their preparations, as they had originally intended to defend, everyone prepared to retreat.

“Seah. If I wipe them all out, will I take the MVP from you?”

“Ah. Uncle. That’s a bit… it’s my debut match, let me have the MVP once.”

“Hmm…”

Seong Jihan stroked his chin, then thrust his sword at the enemies.

Fundamental Divine Arts, Annihilation God’s Secret – Myriad Ghost Sealing Gods.

The shadow sword quickly transformed into a giant vortex.

“Oh. Uh…!”

“That’s a black vortex!”

“If you get sucked in, you’re dead…!”

“Resist it somehow!”

The retreating Japanese players began to be drawn into it.

They struggled to avoid being sucked into the Myriad Ghost Sealing Gods , but the strong suction made them float helplessly in mid-air.

However, the Myriad Ghost Sealing Gods was slower than usual in absorbing them because Seong Jihan was in control of its power.

“Before you get sucked in, take more of them out.”

“Oh, you’re giving me the chance? Got it!”

Determined to grab the MVP title in her debut game, Yoon Seah eagerly pulled her bowstring.

Pluck! Pluck!

One by one, the Japanese players were pierced.

Difficult to block arrows while being caught in the vortex.

Warriors could last a few rounds, but supporters and mages were straightforward targets.

“This should secure the MVP for me.”

After counting the number of enemy players Seong Jihan had dispatched,

Whissssh!

He increased the suction strength of the Myriad Ghost Sealing Gods.

With that, the slowly drawn-in Japanese players were all swept into the vortex.

In a flash, they were torn apart.

= Player Seong Jihan wraps up the game immediately upon his return!

= Was he controlling his power earlier, just to let Yoon Seah have the MVP title?

= Truthfully, thanks to Yoon Seah buying time, the victory was assured even without the controlled effort…

= Still, he made sure to buy the time!

In the Space League, Seong Jihan demonstrated overwhelming strength.

Having been temporarily sealed by the sudden emergence of a Japanese player, unable to use his powers.

As soon as he began to take full action, the first set ended rather uneventfully.

=The MVP of the first game is…….

=Ah. Indeed, it goes to Yoon Seah!

=She held her ground well on the frontlines in the first game together with player Akari!

=Another prodigy appears on the Korean national team!

The first match MVP went to Yoon Seah.

Although Seong Jihan later piled up the kills, even without that, she had clearly earned her MVP title.

-Wow… Yoon Seah is disgustingly powerful; an archer shielding warrior assaults at the frontline lol

-Why is everyone from that family like that?? What are they taking?

-The national team’s lineup is insane compared to a year ago lol

-Yeah, they ran at the bottom of the rankings until Seong Jihan showed up lol

-I almost considered immigrating during those times.

Entering 2021.

With the Sword King joining and the emergence of a new talent Yoon Seah, the Korean national team significantly strengthened.

On the other hand, the atmosphere on the Japanese side, without tangible reinforcements, was grim.

-The chance Mizuhara created…

-Ha, but we can win! Ban Seong Jihan, and Mizuhara can seal the Sword King!

-What about Yoon Seah then? She was the cause of the loss in the first set.

-Ah… as expected, we can’t beat Korea.

-Unless a supporter map is chosen, it’s impossible…

Russia’s consistent victory card against Korea, the ‘Golem Duel’ supporter map, became Japan’s only hope.

In Golem Duel, the supporter’s abilities alone determine the winner.

Even with the monster-like Seong Jihan, he couldn’t dominate the game here.

=The Japanese coach bans Seong Jihan and selects the Golem Duel map!

=As expected…The first game was unusual! Japan’s supporter strength is definitely an advantage, making this their only winning formula.

=Coach Noh Youngjun pulls out Southgate….

=Oh… as expected. Japan selected the Golem Duel map!

And then…

As the Japanese coach got their desired Golem Duel map, Noh Youngjun’s brows furrowed.

‘This is… becoming a real problem every single time.’

Golem Duel, a supporter map.

It was a map where victory was determined by golem versus golem, and where the player could only provide buffs and healing to their golem.

Unable to partake in the combat themselves, it’s almost the only map where the all-encompassing Seong Jihan couldn’t wield his might, after Russia had fun with this map in a previous match.

Ever since then, every country facing Korea prioritized this map.

And then,

=Ah…….

=Again, the Golem Duel map proves tough……!

=Japan’s golem is putting serious pressure on ours……!

The Korean national team couldn’t bridge the perceived gap in supporter strength.

And they ended up facing defeat.

-Ah, really hate that map lol

-Can’t Seong Jihan participate in the Golem Duel?

-He doesn’t have supporter abilities, he’d be useless even if he did

-That’s the only counter map for Seong Jihan lol

-Ah… at this rate, Seong Jihan. You have to charm Sophia! Naturalize her!

-He has a partner, right? lol

-I authorize polygamy!

After losing because of the Golem Duel in the second game.

The Korean audience was like, oh well, too bad, bring over Sophia, but then…

“Uh. Uh…….”

“The third game also lands on the Golem Duel map!”

As the third game also fell onto the Golem Duel map, the mood became grim.

-No… wait. Isn’t this statistically improbable……?

-With a 70 percent probability on the select card to land a map. So each country’s probability is 35 percent, very possible…….

-But two times in a row is a 12 percent chance…

-So, what’s the probability of the Golem Duel popping up again?

-Multiply 35 percent three times and that’s 4 percent lol

-Ah f*ck… surely, we won’t hit that 4 percent, right?

Thanks to the Japanese coach’s divine card drawing skills.

Even as Coach Noh Youngjun banned Japan’s best supporter Sakura in response.

= Ah…… We lost the third game.

=With player Sakura banned, we might’ve thought we had a chance…

= Still, our supporter strength is no match for Japan!

The third game, just like the second, ended with the same result.

“Ah. Uncle… Sophia says she wants to come to Korea, should we actively pursue her naturalization?”

“No need. Why bother with that?”

“But really, if Golem Duel strikes three times in a row, isn’t that the end?”

“What’s the chance of that happening?”

“If only Jiah were here…….”

Priestess Seong Jiah, who had shown remarkable abilities as a supporter.

Had she been on the national team, they wouldn’t have been exploited so unilaterally.

Unable to compete in two games, Seong Jihan and the group could only watch the screen.

=The Japanese team has casually scored 2 wins with an air of ease!

=On the flip side, Coach Noh Youngjun’s hands are trembling while picking the cards.

=Ah, the Japanese coach picks Golem Duel again! How persistent!

=No, but surely, it won’t be playing Golem Duel three times in a row… right?

=There can’t be a fourth consecutive Golem Duel at 4 percent probability!

=Just don’t land on it in the fourth game! No bans or select cards are given in the fifth game!

And then the map for the fourth game was chosen.

“Ah……!”

The fates of the two coaches intertwined.

* * *

The next day, at the Sword Palace Penthouse.

[The Republic of Korea struggles to win 3:2 against Japan!]

[Korea got toyed in the Golem Duel map! Weaknesses exposed.]

[The only game Seong Jihan can’t partake in, Golem Duel map. What’s the counter strategy?]

“I really thought we were going to lose my debut game in a ridiculous way.”

Yoon Seah sighed deeply while reading the news articles.

Compared to when facing Japanese warriors, the moment the Japanese coach drew a card felt a hundred times more nerve-wracking.

-Oh, I almost lost and went bankrupt…

-Indeed, gambling is not a good idea for sure.

-I turned off the TV when drawing the cards because I was shaking so much. Lol.

-How can we not solve this Golem Duel map? Really want to ban the map itself ㅡㅡ

After the intense card drawing by the Japanese coach yesterday, many people seemed to have their hearts pounding.

Everyone was only talking about the Golem Duel map.

“The Japanese are criticizing the coach for not selecting the Golem Duel map from the first game.”

“Twice in a row was enough. They ask too much.”

“That’s it, uncle. Ah~ but my debut articles are buried because of that Golem Duel!”

“They aren’t gone, are they?”

To the disappointed Yoon Seah, Seong Jihan pointed to the headlines on the portal site home page.

[1st Game MVP Yoon Seah has a successful debut!]

[1st Game MVP Yoon Seah. 4th Game MVP Yoon Sejin. 5th Game MVP Seong Jihan. The family takes turns claiming the MVP.]

[The series MVP goes to Seong Jihan…]

The news articles touched on Yoon Seah’s impressive debut at the Korea-Japan Series.

“Uh… still, it feels like the limelight was stolen by the Golem Duel map.”

She wasn’t satisfied with the amount of news coverage.

“That can’t be helped. The game was almost lost, after all. Blame the Japanese coach’s card-picking skills.”

“It won’t do, uncle. Let’s bring Sophia over. With her, the Korea national team is sure to win.”

“No need. No need to bring her over.”

“Eh, but with Sophia, we could definitely win the championship!”

Yoon Seah argued with disappointment, but…

“We’ll win even without her.”

Seong Jihan waved it off, dismissing the idea.

“Eh, but when you have a surefire card to win…”

As Yoon Seah was about to express her dissatisfaction at Seong Jihan’s firm rejection, her phone vibrated.

“Oh? Uncle. Sophia’s in Korea.”

“…Why?”

“Huh? Uncle, Sophia says she’s in a hurry to see you. It’s really urgent regarding the Priestess.”

An urgent matter……

Something urgent… related to the Priestess.

“Alright. Tell her to come over.”

“Yep! I’ll let her know.”

Thus, Yoon Seah, right there and then, called Sophia.
