< Roast - Preparation (1) >
Episode 150
JD.
Ordinary men were called by those around them by such nicknames.
Of course, he also had a different real name, but since he was called Hado J.D, he was more familiar with it than his real name.
Besides, there were many other nicknames he was familiar with besides J.D.
‘Crazy guy’, ‘Torai’, ‘Bastard’, etc.
Rather, the nickname “JD” is wild enough to look like a nickname, but what can I do?
All of which he caused himself.
And actually, being called by a nickname like J.D. wasn’t too bad.
In any case, from his point of view.
Anyway, being called that way meant that he had a lot of interest, and he loved that interest very much.
So, what this man, J.D, was doing right now…
-“I’ll step on it properly.”
I was watching Dohyun’s video.
In the video, Do-hyeon was smiling confidently and wildly, responding to provocations directed at him.
Then the audience cheers.
Responding to a provocation with a more intense provocation is what they also wanted.
And it was the same with JD, who was watching the video.
“Good! Great!”
When Dohyun responded to the provocation by saying, ‘I’ll step on you’ without hesitation, JD grabbed his stomach and giggled.
Every time he burst into laughter, his iconic golden hair fluttered.
His laughter lying on the sofa continued until the video ended and his best friend and manager talked to him.
“Hey, JD. What’s so funny?”
“Oh, my best friend, Brady. You’re finally here. Good job.”
“········No. No. Don’t say it.”
“What? I haven’t said a word yet!”
When Jade spoke in surprise, a man named Brady shouted.
“When you said that with that look on your face, I’ve never been nice to you! You motherfucker!”
It was a cry that almost roared, so JD rolled his eyes.
A few times the blue eyes were hidden and exposed by the eyelids.
Soon, a vicious smile appeared on JD’s face.
Brady saw it and grabbed his head.
“Oh, damn it….”
Brady, a long-time friend of JD, knew.
JD with that expression can’t be stopped.
Even if he blocks it, J-D will have to do everything he can to achieve his will.
‘Cause it’s always been like that
Jade said as if declaring.
“I’ll have to take a break from the show for a while, Brady.”
“Are you taking a break from broadcasting? What are you trying to do?”
“Roast.”
“Lost? Damn it. If you’re going to play a game, just do it on TV. Why do you want to play games until you’re off the air?”
At Brady’s question, Jaydy shook her head.
He didn’t want to take a break from broadcasting because he wanted to roast.
What he really wants is…
“I can’t stand my hot fans any more!”
“Damn it. Are you going to tell me nonsense again?”
“Now I’m tired of looking from the outside! I want to go inside and play properly!”
“Yeah. Keep going.”
“I’m going to play! I’m going to play!”
JD jumped up from his seat.
His blue sapphire-like eyes gleamed with something resembling madness.
A deep smile spreads across his handsome face.
“With God!”
“What are you talking about, you idiot…”
Brady shook his head.
Thinking I can’t stop this madman any more.
this day.
J.D., a famous individual broadcaster in the United States, suddenly posted an announcement that it would take a break from broadcasting for the time being.
But none of his viewers knew why.
I just thought, ‘What kind of shit is he trying to do?’
This is the beginning of a great upheaval, a story that no one expected…
“I’m sorry! And thank you for accepting me despite the sudden declaration of war!”
“No, that’s fine. You don’t have to be too harsh.”
Dohyun waved his hand at Jesky’s nodded greeting.
Right after the broadcast ended, he was contacted by Jesky, who came via Dumdum, and was having a three-way meeting.
The reason was the sudden declaration of war.
Dum-dum, Jesky, and Do-hyeon have gathered to share a story about a topic that has been blown up without prior consultation.
And as soon as the story started, Jesky said that.
“I was worried that I was being taken too seriously. Were you offended by any chance?”
“I hope! I started it my own way, is it possible? It was good that the picture came out just right.”
Dohyun sighed in relief.
Intoxicated with the atmosphere, he said, “I’ll step on him properly,” and, depending on what he heard, made a provocation that could be very offensive.
No matter how much it was said that the explosion was done without consulting first from the other side, it might have crossed the line, so I was worried.
“Rather, I’m sorry. I started on my own without consulting…. I apologize once again.”
And it was the same with Jessie.
Usually, this happens only after some discussion with the broadcasters in advance, but this time it wasn’t.
No matter how good it is to gather topics together, if Dohyun expressed displeasure, he would have nothing to say.
“It’s fine. I’m really sorry for speaking so harshly…”
“No, no, no! That’s fine. Really!
The continuous apology between Jesky and Dohyeon to each other ended only after Dumdum intervened with applause.
pair.
“Come on, stop it. Anyway, both of you didn’t feel bad for each other, did you?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Can’t say that.”
“Then the story ends with this! Let’s cleanly fight each other during the Lost annexation!”
Dumdum drew a clear conclusion.
Dohyeon and Jeskey nodded their heads at the firmness that left no room for objection.
The three-way face-to-face ended with Dum-Dum’s arrangement.
After Jesky, who left the last word of apology, left, and when Dohyeon and the two were left, Dumdum bowed his head toward Dohyeon.
“Thanks to you, I made a big topic even before the start. Thank you, Kratos-sama.”
“No, nothing to say.”
Dohyun said, waving his hand once more.
In the first place, this declaration of war not only started with Jesky, but with Jesky, this interest has been of great benefit to him as well.
It would be nice to raise expectations and topics for the joint broadcast, but Dohyun also gained a lot of interest as his interest in himself grew.
Since it was a win-win result, it means that there is no reason to even receive thanks.
“It was good that the number of viewers increased thanks to me too. There are also a lot of clips.”
“Haha. I’m glad you said that.”
Dumdum smiled and continued talking.
“Actually, Jesky did it arbitrarily, but thanks to that, I’m also grateful.”
“You confirmed Kratos-sama’s participation. I was still thinking about what to say.”
Dohyun smiled softly at Dumdum’s words.
Is there no reason why he dares to reject Dum-Dum’s offer of annexation?
It would be like a light joke to ease his mind.
“By the way, I was going to start the project before the launch of the VGN broadcast program, but I’m going to have to crave it a little more.”
Dum-dum giggled, saying that the question message ‘When do you start the Lost merger?’ is pouring in.
That’s probably because, after Dohyeon and Jesky’s declaration of war on both sides, broadcasters who said they would also participate in a large-scale joint broadcast poured out.
When it is revealed that more than a hundred people are participating at the same time, of course, the personal broadcasting industry is bound to boil with this.
“By the way, are the preparations for the launch of the program going well?”
“It’s a broadcasting station business, so I don’t know too well. But from what I hear, it seems to be working fine.”
It was a cable TV program that suggested Dohyeon if Dumdum would join her.
Since it was still preparing for launch, Dumdum was working on such a large-scale annexation project in the remaining time.
‘You really love Hapbang.’
Even Dohyeon couldn’t help but act crazy enough to get such an impression from DumDum.
“If there are more stories later, I will tell them separately.”
“Yes, I would appreciate it if you did.”
Their story ended there.
It was Seungyeon who met Dohyeon, who broke up with Dumdum and returned to her waiting room.
She had already known that he was going to a three-way meeting, so she had come and waited.
“Yeah. It was fine. That person apologized right away first, and he didn’t care what I said. Rather, he said it was a good picture.”
“I’m glad. It would have been bad if there was any controversy, but it ended well.”
Seungyeon smiled brightly.
Since things have been done well, all that’s left is to raise awareness through the topic.
It was a very good thing.
“By the way, are you going to form a team to participate? Then there will be a shortage of people….”
“Team? Do you have to plan something like that?”
“Ah… that’s right. You don’t know anything about roast, do you?”
Seungyeon made a sad expression on her face.
Come to think of it, Do-hyeon didn’t know much about anything other than the games he mainly plays.
It was natural that even Roast didn’t know.
Because of that, she first started explaining the roast to Dohyun.
“Lost is a game that is usually classified as an MMO survival game or a sandbox genre. It’s a way of starting with nothing, farming, and building a stronghold.”
Lost.
As the title of this game is written with English words with meanings such as lost, lost, and [lost], the game proceeds according to its title.
This means that the player will start out with nothing really given.
It was like starting the game with bare hands as if I got lost and lost everything I had.
In that situation, the main play of Lost was to somehow survive, collect resources, establish a base to secure safety, and finally invade other places.
“You know what it feels like?”
“Yeah, but what’s the team?”
“The Lost can form a team of up to eight people. Probably, there is a high probability that everyone else will make a team full of eight people.”
“Eight people. Oh, so that’s why you said there were not enough people.”
When I heard that Dohyun was a team, what came to mind was, as expected, the Trickers’ military service high school girl Jean Jeonwoohoe.
The six members of the team are Kang Kang-woo, Do-hyeon, Seung-yeon, Quka, Plaid, and Jia.
However, the team that Lost supports is up to eight people, so they still lack two.
Besides, I don’t know whether they will or not.
“We need to hire a new staff, has anyone thought about it?”
“No, there is not.”
Dohyun shook her head at Seungyeon’s question.
He didn’t know anything about the game called Lost in the first place.
Of course, he didn’t know that he needed a team member, so he must have thought about who the lacking team member would be.
“Well, it would be easy to find a team member? Unless you’ve formed a separate team first, I think you’ll be able to bring them to the level of almost picking them up.”
“Because you are.”
Seungyeon pointed her finger at Dohyun.
Dohyun blinked and looked at the finger pointing to him.
“What should I say about Lost? Lawless Zone? Survival of the Fittest? Because that’s what it feels like. Killing other people and farming them is recognized as a decent play.”
This was called the so-called bandit, or street robbery play.
If it had been another game, it would have been reported as unmanned PK and was a subject of controversy, but in Lost, this is recognized as a fair play.
In that sense, a team with a monster named Dohyun had no choice but to become the target everyone wanted to enter.
“Maybe there are people who give up on bandit after hearing your name and go back. Because I don’t want to get revenge. If it’s a team like that, I’d like to join as well.”
Dohyun, realizing roughly what he meant, nodded his head.
It meant that there are many people who want to have reliable insurance in a game where fighting each other to death is common.
“Then let’s check the opinions of other team members first, and then select the insufficient number of people. There may be people who are absent from the communal association.”
“Your sister?”
“Of course I’m participating! Little brother! Let’s see your virtue after a while!”
Dohyun shrugged while looking at Seungyeon smiling and laughing.
In that way, preparations for a large-scale joint broadcast of their Lost began in earnest.
