I Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 65

Title) You Fucking Bastards With Dead Mothers You Son Of A Bitches

Princess Chaenggu

(Video of Chaeyu conceding a goal in 30 seconds)

Fuck! I received Orichalcum from a nice person so the picture quality got better and stuttering disappeared, but what’s the fucking point?! Now I just get to watch us concede a goal in 1 minute in crystal clear high definition, fucking goddammit!

ㄴ Heavenly Demon: Calm down. You might succumb to Heart Demon at this rate.

ㄴ Sword Matstar: Looks to me like she’s already fallen into Heart Demon?

ㄴ FR, if a named user acting in-character loses it to this extent, she’s definitely fallen into Heart Demon lol

ㄴ LMAO but how do you even concede a goal like that?

ㄴ Passed the ball directly to the opposing team’s forward, kekkkk

ㄴ Isn’t that goalkeeper from the Satan League? I thought he played well there, why is he like this?

ㄴ Chaenggu-ification in progress. No worries lol

ㄴ Princess Chaenggu: Shut up! It’s only his first season, isn’t that too harsh?!

ㄴ Wait;; You were the one cursing out parents and swearing first.

ㄴ Princess Chaenggu: The me from back then is gone. I have regained mind and body peace once more.

ㄴ Look at her being totally shameless LMAO

ㄴ Wild Grylls: Uh... Are you okay?

ㄴ Princess Chaenggu: I showed you an unsightly side of me. I am so sorry.

ㄴ Wild Grylls: It’s alright. By the way, is it really Orichalcum?

ㄴ Princess Chaenggu: I transplanted it right away without checking, and seeing it work so well, it’s definitely Orichalcum!

It really was Orichalcum. That fact alone was enough.

From now on, in addition to Mature Mandrakes, I should include other pieces of Orichalcum on my trading list.

’Since it’s an ore, it probably won’t be insanely popular.’

Unlike Mature Mandrake which could be consumed by humans, Orichalcum was difficult to handle.

At best, it would be used for overheating prevention like Princess Chaenggu did.

Still, since it was said to be a costly mineral, I could trade it reasonably.

ㄴ King Reor: As expected of Chaenggu LMAO Freeloading goal yummm~

ㄴ The Lep-deungi appears without fail LMAO

ㄴ That guy keeps popping up lol

ㄴ Wild Grylls: What’s a Lep-deungi?

ㄴ Leor fans are called Lep. Combining that with camel cricket (gopdeungi) makes it Lep-deungi.

ㄴ Wild Grylls: So it’s like an affectionate nickname.

ㄴ King Reor: I’d prefer if you called us Lep instead of Lep-deungi. Also, hey man.

ㄴ Wild Grylls: Yes?

ㄴ King Reor: Are you still gonna support Chaeyu after seeing that disastrous state?

ㄴ Wild Grylls: Where I used to live, there’s a saying.

ㄴ King Reor: What is it?

ㄴ Wild Grylls: "If our defensive line concedes 3 goals, our attack just needs to score 4."

ㄴ Sounds kinda retarded, but it makes sense...!

ㄴ What a brilliant answer LMAOOOO

ㄴ Sounds like something a man who found ultimate enlightenment would say? Lol

ㄴ Princess Chaenggu: What a truly wonderful saying! Stop blowing weird ideas into him and get the hell out!

ㄴ King Reor: Now I want you even more. I will definitely turn you into a Lep-deungi. Is there anything you want?

ㄴ Wild Grylls: How about meeting up in person to cheer together? Then I’ll become a Leor fan.

ㄴ King Reor: Woah bro;;;

ㄴ LMAO

ㄴ Ah lol

ㄴ Practically a rejection kek

A person needs grit and backbone. What’s the point of abandoning fandom just because the team is weak?

Among sports fans I’d seen so far, very few abandoned their fandom voluntarily.

A primary exception was when the club committed a nuclear-level repulsive act.

Such as tossing away a player who was the icon of the team just because they lacked money.

’Is there an iconic player here too?’

Not just a team icon, but players representing an entire era.

However, this world contained various races, and Demons and Elves in particular had extremely long lifespans.

Since the definition of an ’era’ might differ across races, it felt somewhat ambiguous.

Title) How many years is a normal sports player’s career lifespan?

Wild Grylls

Where I lived there were only humans, but how is it for Demons and Elves?

ㄴ Every time I see you, your gimmick is so weird. What do you mean "only humans" lol

ㄴ Wild Grylls: I’m serious, man. Anyway, how about Demons and Elves? Do they play consistently for 100 years or something?

ㄴ Nah, those cases are super rare. Generational turnover is surprisingly fast.

ㄴ Wild Grylls: Why?

ㄴ It’s because of knees. Knees get ground into powder, so lifespan doesn’t mean shit.

ㄴ That, plus humans keep advancing tactics, so long-lived races get left behind.

ㄴ To put it nicely, classic; to put it harshly, outdated. That’s why they keep losing to humans recently lol

ㄴ Wild Grylls: Ah I see

ㄴ Plus humans have insanely high ceilings, so their peak impact is wild. Some crazy human scored over 100 goals in a single season.

ㄴ What’s that guy up to these days?

ㄴ Retired and living a peaceful life, I think? Rumor has it he even got knighted.

ㄴ Let’s Grow Trees: We Elves are working hard without backing down either! Recently, numerous Elves have been active in Mephisto!

ㄴ You mean the guys caught planting trees over there?

ㄴ Didn’t they get caught and deported? Lol

ㄴ Nah, he was so good that he got off with just probation. Man, if you’re good at sports, everything gets forgiven;;

ㄴ Still, seeing stuffy Elves enjoy sports feels odd.

ㄴ Ever since the Elf Queen ascended, she’s been pushing cultural opening hard. Problem is she crosses the line too often LMAO

ㄴ Probably few monarchs have as stark light and shadow as the Elf Queen lol

Or so they said.

Still, because Demons and Elves had long lifespans, their youth lasted longer, meaning longer career potential.

On the other hand, humans possessed extremely high peaks, making them the closest beings to ’championships.’

’That’s why complaints about inequality don’t come up as often.’

Each race clearly had distinct pros and cons.

Seeing this made me realize that living beings were the same everywhere.

Title: Honestly, Grylls pretending to know about sports is fucking disgusting

"Hmm?"

I was watching highlights posted by Princess Chaenggu when this caught my attention.

A post drew my interest.

Though it wasn’t particularly damaging, I clicked on it out of curiosity.This story is hosted at NovelPing.

Honestly, Grylls pretending to know about sports is fucking disgusting.

If you’re serious, post a hilarious sports joke. Then you’ll prove you’re a true sports fan.

ㄴ Wild Grylls: I’m just a casual fan who enjoys it normally. If I offended you, I apologize.

ㄴ Woah wait. If you act like that, what does that make me? Anyway, drop a joke.

ㄴ LMAO won’t give up on demanding a joke till the end

ㄴ Didn’t you see the joke this guy pulled earlier? Said if you concede 3 goals, just score 4 LMAOOOO

ㄴ That’s football. Gotta toss in a baseball meme too.

ㄴ Wild Grylls: OK, hold on a sec, wait.

That was easy. Where I lived, the internet was developed far beyond simple boards.

It was a place overflowing with bizarre memes and jokes. I just had to pick an impactful one.

???: Please put it in.

(Photo of a fan clutching their head and weeping)

PUT THE DAMN BALL IN THE STRIKE ZONE FOR FUCK’S SAKE!!!

ㄴ LMAOOOOOOOO

ㄴ LMAOOOOO

ㄴ You came up with this on the spot? LMAO

ㄴ I only saw "Please put it in" and thought it was an NSFW pic LMAO

ㄴ Is this guy crazy LMAO

ㄴ Don’t Abandon the Hero: Ah! I thought it was explicit material, but it wasn’t!

ㄴ Wild Grylls: I don’t have many pics. I just scavenged that one while browsing the Gallery.

ㄴ Don’t Abandon the Hero: Can you reveal your Gallery photo album?!

ㄴ Wild Grylls: Sorry, no

ㄴ LMAO

ㄴ This bastard saved a few LMAO

Honestly, how could anyone resist? If you resist, you’re not a man.

Especially since there were other races besides humans, sparking immense curiosity.

...Except Dwarves and Beastfolk.

As vivid photos from back then flashed in my mind, I shook my head vigorously.

Wounds on the body could be healed with an Elixir, but trauma in the soul was difficult to cure even with an Elixir.

Chaeyu vs Leor: Major crisis for Chaeyu! But Elicto makes the save!

Chaeyu vs Leor: Another crisis for Chaeyu! Hit the defender and out of bounds!

Title) Chaeyu vs Leor: Kares WONDER GOAAAL!!! Conceding another goal, Chaeyu!

While I was looking away briefly, Chaeyu conceded another goal.

Conceding in 30 seconds, and now conceding again 10 minutes later.

For the record, the person uploading match videos was Princess Chaenggu.

Seeing her upload steadfastly even as her supported team conceded showed her mental fortitude was formidable.

Title) Chaeyu vs Leor: Kares WONDER GOAAAL!!! Conceding another goal, Chaeyu!

Princess Chaenggu

(Video of conceding a clean long-range goal)

Fucking useless bastards.

Or wait, did her mind break past the limit into absolute enlightenment?

It was a pitiable situation, but there was nothing I could do.

All I could do was steadily watch the videos she uploaded.

I didn’t know anything about football tactics and was strictly a casual fan.

’Doesn’t it look like they’re just defending too much?’

Watching the clips, Chaeyu seemed busy frantically defending.

Wouldn’t it be better if they became a team that scored 4 goals instead of conceding 3, like I said?

Well, as I said earlier, I had nothing I could do besides cheer.

Title) Chaeyu vs Leor: Stoppage time over. Leor leads by 2 goals.

Princess Chaenggu

(Video of players walking into the locker room)

Wow, the video quality is damn good, hehe

FUCK

ㄴ Can’t hide the rage LMAO

ㄴ By the way, the video and audio quality really got insane. Is this the power of Orichalcum?

ㄴ I wanna get Orichalcum too...

ㄴ Upvote if you’re a gallery user who wants Grylls to give out free stuff LMAO

ㄴ Starting with me first lol

Not a chance. Unless someone offered me something good, there would be no trade.

Furthermore, I had no choice but to look through tinted glasses when trading with named users from now on.

The named users I traded with before were people who offered goodwill without expecting anything from the start.

Above all, since most items could be bought in the auction house, I could afford to be strict.

Chaemes United signs Kios for 100 billion Eura!

Dumbasses

???: Did they forget to save the game?

It’s too early to be disappointed.

As half-time arrived, all sorts of memes flooded the Gallery. A familiar flavor.

I chuckled while reading through a few of the posts.

Who said it? That losing teams possessed an aura of their own.

That aura sublimated into comedy, giving birth to endless jokes.

King Reor has requested a trade. Would you like to accept?

"Huh?"

While browsing the Gallery, something unexpected happened.

King Reor, who bickered with Princess Chaenggu at every opportunity, sent a trade request.

Blinking in surprise, I hit accept first to see what this was about.

If it were a total stranger, it might be different, but I accepted because his handle was familiar.

[King Reor: Hello.]

You accepted!

Hello.

[Wild Grylls: What’s the matter?]

[King Reor: Uh... Well, by any chance, do you have any extra Orichalcum left...?]

It seemed he was aiming for the Orichalcum. His tone was polite right off the bat.

I could roughly guess the reason, but let it pass.

[Wild Grylls: I do have some, but King Reor-nim, do you also have broadcast magic?]New chapters come out on novelping dot com first.

[King Reor: Seeing the video Chaenggu uploaded, I just couldn’t hold back...]

While making fun of her endlessly, inside he had been envious all along.

Still, at least he was honest. Though a die-hard fan, he wasn’t a bad person.

Though he teased Princess Chaenggu occasionally, it could pass as typical banter between opposing fans.

I can’t give it for free.

[Wild Grylls: Do you have anything to offer in return?]

[King Reor: A jersey wouldn’t work, right?]

Sorry, but I’m a Chaeyu fan.

I don’t think that’ll do.

Trying to leech off me? Get out of here.

...Is what I wanted to say, but I held back. Since I didn’t know what he might offer yet.

Besides, King Reor was just testing the waters, so he didn’t seem too disappointed.

[King Reor: Then how about a crystal orb engraved with Light magic?]

[Wild Grylls: What’s that?]

[King Reor: It’s literally what it sounds like.]

If you tap the crystal orb a few times, Light magic activates automatically.

I thought Grylls-nim might need it?

No, no.

I was asking what Light magic is.

After that question, there was no reply for a while.

Being completely ignorant about magic, I had no choice but to ask.

[King Reor: It’s easiest to think of it as a spell that shines a bright light.]

A small sphere floats above and illuminates the surroundings.

You’re offering to give that to me?

[Wild Grylls: Isn’t that expensive?]

[King Reor: It is a bit pricey, but for the sake of broadcast magic...]

[Wild Grylls: By the way, what race are you...?]

[King Reor: Just a demon ahjussi who loves football.]

A win-win trade for both sides. I accepted his trade.

With Light magic, exploring areas like caves would be a massive help.

Knowing nothing about magic, this was an excellent trade for me.

[King Reor: It activates as long as you channel mana into it, so it won’t be hard to use.]

Thank you.

[King Reor: Before the trade ends, could you cheer "Leor fighting" just once?]

[Wild Grylls: Sorry, I can’t do that hehe;;]

[King Reor: T_T]

The trade concluded there. I immediately checked the item I received.

"Hmm?"

But this guy—or rather, Demon—even sent over a jersey.

Chaeyu’s jersey was white-based, and Leor’s was also white-based.

The difference was that Leor’s had stripes.

Furthermore, the animal on the crest was a hawk, not a deer.

’Talk about dedication.’

Smirking, I carefully stored the jersey away. I didn’t post about it separately.

If I made a post, Princess Chaenggu might feel betrayed.

Even though we were strangers who had never met face-to-face, I didn’t want to betray someone who helped me.

Chaeyu vs Leor: Half-time over. Leor kicks off.

It seemed half-time ended while I was trading.

Chaeyu vs Leor: LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

And Princess Chaenggu’s mental sanity completely collapsed.

Wondering what happened, I opened it up to find they had conceded another goal as soon as the second half started.

Naturally, the comment section exploded. Among them, King Reor’s comment was the highlight.

ㄴ King Reor: Hey Chaenggu. Don’t worry too much. You just need to score 4 goals now kek

ㄴ Princess Chaenggu: You fucking bitch.

ㄴ LMAOOOO

ㄴ ???: "If our defensive line concedes 3 goals, our attack just needs to score 4."

ㄴ A golden opportunity to prove it LMAO

ㄴ Believe in Grylls’s words!

How could someone be so good at pushing buttons?

However, a 3-goal deficit in football meant they were virtually overwhelmed.

It was at a point where calling it a day and preparing for the next match was better.

’Well. Who knows, maybe they really will score 4 goals.’

Princess Chaenggu would probably watch the game to the end without giving up.

I also checked the clips she uploaded periodically.

And did the collective prayers of all Chaeyu fans produce a miracle?

Chaeyu vs Leor: Kone pulls one back!

Scoring a pull-back goal.

Chaeyu vs Leor: Kone scores another! Chaeyu closes the gap to 1 point!

Not stopping there, they scored a chasing goal,

Chaeyu vs Leor: Kone HAT-TRICK! Chaeyu brings it to a draw with a WONDER GOAL!!!

They actually leveled the score. And then...

Title) Chaeyu vs Leor: Stoppage time COMEBAAAAACK GOAAAAL KRRRRAAAAAGH!!

Princess Chaenggu

(Video of player taking off his jersey in celebration after scoring the match-winner)

DAMNNN IT ALLL!!! I BELIEVED IN YOU GUYS ALL ALONNGGG!!!

ㄴ Wow holy shit, this actually worked LMAO

ㄴ Chaenggu bastards maxed out their dopamine LMAO

ㄴ What’s up with these guys? Why are they playing so well all of a sudden LMAO

ㄴ Ditching all defense and just going all-out attack actually scored all of them LMAO

ㄴ ???: "If our defensive line concedes 3 goals, our attack just needs to score 4."

ㄴ I bow down to worship you, oh Prophet.

ㄴ It really was a prophecy LMAO

ㄴ Conceding 3 goals and scoring 4 LMAOOOO

A miracle had occurred.
