“As expected of Alley Leader. Crescent Moon has won 4-3 with this and will also take home the PvP event.”
“This is their fourth consecutive victory. It is also the first time in a long while that we’ve seen four straight wins in the league. Of course, if UK Heights wins today, then they will also have four wins like Crescent Moon. However, it is impossible for them to be number one due to the difference in the raid time attack.”
“It’s a scheduled result. It is nearly impossible for Charlotte Dragons to beat Crescent Moon with their power. In the end, they couldn’t reverse the difference in power.”
The commentators expressed their thoughts, saying it was natural for Crescent Moon to win. The questions they had at the time of the opening match of the league had long been resolved. Now, no one questioned Crescent Moon’s power. Rather, Crescent Moon was said to be too overwhelming.
“Crescent Moon’s power is unique in South Korea. They won’t be pushed even against the best teams abroad.”
The commentators picked out Sunny as the biggest power of Crescent Moon. Of course, this was among the five players aside from Hyeonu, whom everyone already knew was the strongest player. The reason why they excluded him was that he moved separately from the rest of the team during the sieges, staying out of most of the battles. Thus, there was no need to talk about him. Instead, they talked about Sunny, who had the rare necromancer class, as the key player.
“Player Sunny is at the center of it all. I never dreamed that a necromancer would be so powerful in the siege. It came out for a moment last year before disappearing. I thought it was a pity.”
It wasn’t that there had been no necromancers before Sunny. The problem was that there had been no environment for necromancers to play a proper role at those times. The environment hadn’t been a big deal, but the skill ranking of the necromancers had been too low. Naturally, their undead had been very weak too. Necromancers weren’t used in the pro scene because their powers were often not strong enough to kill even one person.
“It’s different now. No, perhaps only Sunny is different. Still, it is certain that the choices for necromancers have increased. Each team will have to work on a new combination,” Chae Yunho raved about Sunny.
He thought that Sunny presented a new paradigm to the pro scene.
‘To be exact, it was presented by Alley Leader, the one who recruited Sunny.’
“We will start the next match. The second match consists of UK Heights, who have won three consecutive...”

Crescent Moon’s waiting room was calm. Everyone looked at the television of the waiting room in comfortable positions. Four games were being shown on the television.
“Who is going to win?” Mason asked as he opened a box full of macarons. His gaze was directed at Lee Hoon, who was staring at the macarons.
“Maybe JT Telecom will win? It is because the other side isn’t their opponent,” Lee Hoon replied while gulping.
The macarons were shining brightly. In particular, a pink macaron with a flavor unknown to him attracted his attention.
“Right? What are they thinking if they lose like this? Won’t they be ashamed of themselves?” Mason said.
Lee Hoon shook his head. “Ashamed? Who knows... If they stop just because of this, they should give up on being a pro gamer. Pros need to overcome their shame.”
They were still amateurs if they stopped just because they were ashamed. Pros had to go beyond it.
“By the way, what is with your hand?” Mason caught Lee Hoon’s wrist. There were two macarons in Lee Hoon’s hand.
“Why? Let’s eat together. There are a few more boxes. I’m so hungry.” Lee Hoon showed a pitiful expression. It was full of sincerity. Lee Hoon was very hungry right now.
“If this were something bought with money, I would give it to you. But this was a gift from a fan, so I just can’t. I’m sorry.” Mason struck Lee Hoon’s hand with his other hand that wasn’t holding onto Lee Hoon’s wrist.
Lee Hoon—who just got hit on the back of his hand—momentarily released his grip, and the macarons naturally fell back into the box.
“I don’t have any fans who gave it to me!” Lee Hoon shouted while rubbing the back of his reddened hand.
Mason had many fans who gave him things. In particular, female fans gave all types of gifts.
“Yes, just give it to him. I feel sorry for him just from seeing this,” Hyeonu muttered from where he lay on the sofa. Hyeonu was frowning. He couldn’t watch the game properly due to the argument between Mason and Lee Hoon.
“Hyung, you give it to him then. Hyung got a lot more than me after all,” Mason grumbled at Hyeonu.
Hyeonu was overwhelming when it came to the number of gifts he had received. Dwayne, Yuri, and Sunny had also received a lot of gifts. Mason had received quite a bit as well. Lee Hoon was the only one who hadn’t gotten any. Still, the combined number of gifts for the five people was still less than what Hyeonu had received.
Hyeonu got up and looked at Lee Hoon’s face while asking this question, “Mine? Hoon, do you want these? In any case, what’s important to me are their hearts.”
“Yes, please.” Lee Hoon nodded quickly, so much so that he was worried about what would happen to his neck.
“Okay. These were given by fans, so you must never throw them away, understood?” Hyeonu wanted a promise from Lee Hoon.
It couldn’t be taken back. If Lee Hoon chose to take some, he had to promise to eat them all unconditionally. If they had been bought for Lee Hoon, it wouldn’t matter if he threw them away, but these were the fans’ gifts to Hyeonu. So they should not be thrown away.
“I understand, Hyung.” Lee Hoon nodded vigorously.
It naturally wouldn’t happen. To be precise, the gifts were food, so he would never throw them away. Such words weren’t in Lee Hoon’s dictionary.
“Then take anything from the boxes on the left over there. It doesn’t matter how many you take.”
The moment Hyeonu gave permission, Lee Hoon headed to the gift boxes that filled one side of the waiting room.
‘How many should I take? One? Two? Um...’
