[Lily vs. Yena Legendary Match]

Author: Lily’s First Sword

(A short clip of a spear roaring in seven directions)

I’ve always thought Lily was insane, but today is really legendary.

With her Clone Spear and Spear Tornado, she tore everything around her apart, it’s crazy;;

Yena also got Mythical Equipment and even tried to follow along at the end, but Lily is just on another level for real.

What was the real Lily doing?

─ Lily is a god…

─ For real, it was spine-chilling when she tore everything apart, haha.

─ I thought Awakening Yena would win…

└ For real

└ In terms of specs and items, she was overwhelmingly superior, but Lily toyed with her, lol.

└ It’s insane.

─ What is the real Lily even?!

└ Newbie

└ Ah, lol, still a newbie.

└ Honestly, I don’t think I can believe anyone who comes out as Lily’s main anymore.

└ For real, there’s no one among pros or rankers who can do what she does. Maybe Sword Saint?

└ If Sword Saint was female, it would be believable, lol.

─ Yena…ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

[LOL LOL LOL Lily Gacha Fail]

Author: Yena-tang-tang

(A frozen clip of Lily holding a bracelet)

Yena desperately wanted that Mythical item, but she chose the mess box instead and ended up with a total fail, HAHAHA!

She was stunned for a moment but her cuteness is off the charts, lol.

If that’s the case, why did Yena-tang stop her, haha?

─ It is legendary.

─ How does Lily always pull legendary stuff? Haha.

└ Well… because it’s Lily.

└ (Nodding)

─ But in that case, wouldn’t it have been better just to give it to Yena? It seems off to gamble away a Mythical item like that.

└ I agree.

└ Yeah.

└ We seriously decided it purely by battle, so what’s the problem?

└ I mean, haha if Lily had just given her a little leeway, it would have been fine.

└ She’s a ranker in the top 100 with Mythical Equipment, if she lost, she should just admit it.

└ For real, haha, whatever Lily does with her victory is up to her.

└ Fact: Awakening Yena-tang had the advantage and if she had won, no one would be talking.

└ In the end, both just feel disappointed, why’s everyone making a fuss? Haha.

─ To be honest, I thought Lily would give her the Eye.

└ For real, lol.

└ Can’t believe I missed Awakening Yena-tang.

─ Why are they both going crazy though, seriously?

└ Yena-tang seems to have gone looking for a real fight, haha.

└ Whoa.

“Phew…”

The door of the connection device opened, and I returned to reality.

The current time is around 9 PM.

I originally planned to tackle a dungeon and engage in additional content or activities, but since Yena was weeping and a lot happened, we decided to part ways early.
I decided to break up.

“What should I eat?”

Usually, when it ends, it’s dawn, so I mostly just eat something or go straight to bed.

But now, in this awkward time, I feel like I should eat something…

‘How about some chicken?’

I stepped out of my room and plopped down on the sofa in the living room.

Through the cool floor-to-ceiling glass, the Han River and the night view spread out before me.

I moved to a house with a view of the Han River at a steep price, but aside from the mornings, I barely get to see it.

‘…Was I really missing reality?’

I certainly longed for reality back then, but now that I’m here, aside from sleeping, I end up spending more time in Deoen.

It’s a stark contrast to how much I hated that place.

“……”

Maybe it was because I had to come back that I felt a bit happy.

All I had left was that.

Knock knock!

“?”

While I was deep in thought, my expensive D 27+ phone buzzed.

Yena 9:31 PM

– Lilllyyyy…

It’s Yena.

Now that I think about it, she wrapped up her broadcast earlier than me.

She seemed a bit down and looked unwell.

Normally, Yena would continue streaming until dawn, but she turned it off and left Deoen right away.

Me 9:31 PM

– Yes. What’s up?

Yena 9:31 PM

– I’m sick.

Me 9:31 PM

– ?

What?

Yena 9:31 PM

– Inside Deoen, it was okay, but now my hands are shaking like crazy. The hand that used the technique is acting like it’s going to crumble.

Yena 9:31 PM

– Ah…

Me 9:31 PM

– Oh?

I scratched my head.

Was using the technique the problem?

Come to think of it, when I first used the Spear’s Roar in Deoen, I felt exhaustion creeping in from reality too.

However, Yena died once, and her body would recover after leaving the dungeon, so I thought she would be somewhat compensated.

“…I guess it’s because she’s not Celestial.”

Celestial techniques are usually only usable by Celestials.

No matter how well you know the principles and have the power, completely imitating them is impossible.

I’ve seen a few human swordmasters or outstanding races awkwardly trying to imitate them, only for their bodies or souls to collapse under the strain.

‘If it really is a problem… it might be a bit dangerous.’

After some thought, I typed on my phone.

Me 9:32 PM

– What room number?

“Ugh…”

Yena lay in bed, breathing heavily.
After using the technique that Lady Lily taught me, I experienced an overwhelming sense of fatigue.

It was a sensation I had never felt before while being Deoen.

It was as if all my mana was being drained out, and part of myself was being ripped away.

Of course, that sensation was brief, and after dying and resurrecting, I returned to a pretty normal state.

But…

“Wow… this is tougher than a 4-hour PT session…”

Returning to reality felt much harder than those intense training sessions from long ago.

My whole body felt weak, and my right arm was trembling uncontrollably.

I seriously thought I was going to die.

Yena left a message for Lily with her wobbly body.

The reason she contacted Lily instead of hospitals or other acquaintances was simple.

“No matter how I think about it… it’s related to Lady Lily…”

I definitely ended up like this after using the technique that Lady Lily taught me.

Furthermore, there were times when Lady Lily would feel exhausted or suddenly stop contacting me after using her big techniques.

Considering all of this… there was only one reason.

“There’s something about the technique.”

Me at 9:32 PM

– What room are you in?

Fortunately, Lady Lily seemed to be aware of the situation and asked about the lake, to which Yena replied with her trembling arm.

About five minutes passed.

Ding Dong~

─ Yena?

“Yes… I’m opening the door…?”

When I opened the door, there was Lily, fully dressed in black clothes, a black hat, and a black mask.

I had felt it before, but for a woman, she was quite tall.

Yena slowly raised her dizzy eyes and tilted her head.

“Are you taking the same apartment elevator…?”

No matter how alike reality and Deoen were, wasn’t it a bit too much to hide like this?

As Lily took off her hat and mask, my dizzy mind suddenly cleared up.

“Is there something on my face?”

“Oh, no. Please come in…”

She’s really pretty.

Yena felt once again how unfair the world was.

“Hmm… you’ve definitely overdone it a bit.”

I checked Yena’s wrist while she lay on the expensive bed, assessing her condition.

There was nothing wrong with her body.

I didn’t sense any internal injuries or damage to her soul that could cause issues.

‘…Honestly, it’s hard to feel souls.’

This is reality, not Deoen.

With just the body of an average person trained reasonably well, it’s not easy to sense a soul.

But still, there’s a feeling to it.
“There’s something to it.”

“…It’s a bit overwhelming.”

“It should be overwhelming. You’re getting a diagnosis from me.”

The Saintess’s treatment isn’t something just anyone receives.

Of course, it should be overwhelming, and of course, you should be grateful.

The diagnosis is complete.

“You’ll feel better if you just take a deep breath.”

“…Like Lady Lily did?”

“Yes, just like me.”

If Deoen were reality, the body itself would have to be treated due to issues, but Deoen uses a different body entirely.

The pain Yena is experiencing now is the pain the soul remembers from Deoen.

Naturally, it would hurt since the soul with that memory has returned to reality.

“What if it hurts so much I might die?”

“You have to endure it. Just think of it as a tough workout. It’s like muscle soreness.”

“…This is way tougher than PT…”

Yena, who is complaining unnecessarily, is sweating cold.

Still, using the Spear’s Roar and being in this condition is pretty impressive.

Usually, it’s typical for the body to be torn apart, and it’s common for the soul to get damaged as well.

The reason I taught her this dangerous technique is that there’s no one else who can use it, and even if you cast it and meet death, you can be resurrected.

And Yena did just that.

And seeing that the soul is intact, it seems I can teach her a slightly more advanced technique.

As she met my gaze, it seemed Yena felt a chill and turned away.

“I won’t use it again…”

“But you used it well. Don’t you want to learn something stronger?”

“Are you saying I should use it until I die?”

“You won’t die. It’s about twelve times worse than this? You won’t die, so give it a shot…”

“I’m not doing it!”

What a shame.

As I lamented, Yena pouted and turned her head again.

“…By the way, where did you learn things like this? It felt like you’ve known since you started in Deoen.”

“A frustrating human.”

“Huh?”

“Things like that exist.”

‘If once doesn’t work, try ten times. If ten doesn’t work, try a thousand times.’

Isn’t that enough to kill me?

“…That kind of thing exists.”

How did she read my expression? Yena hesitated and then spoke up.

“I…”

Grrrrr…

“…Are you hungry?”

“…….Chicken.”

I want to eat chicken.
