Almond began scavenging after instantly killing an enemy. Everyone, including himself, noticed that his footsteps were lighter.

'It definitely feels different.'

He became a completely different player compared to his first playthrough. It was similar to learning how to ride a bike. He got the hang of it right away once he knew how to do it. That’s what it felt like to him right now.

However, Almond started from a different foundation compared to other people. This made his growth rate increase exponentially. He was more like an F1 racer than a biker.

He knew how to escape sticky situations with the perfect moves.

[Almond → Dodori]

[Eliminated!]

[91/100]

Thwack!

Another player tried to get in the way after the first enemy fell, but also ended up with an arrow in his forehead.

Almond shot him down with ease and zero hesitation.

Thud.

The opponent fell without even knowing who shot him.

Almond lowered his bow after confirming the kill. He seemed like a veteran instead of a beginner. It seemed as if he had used the bow hundreds, no, thousands of times.

— Is this really his second round? He seems like an expert.

— Wow, as expected from getting a bow early on...

— Yeah, the headshots without a helmet are so satisfying.

— A second headshot already?

— What the...

— Was the video not exaggerating?

— It looks like he's shooting without aiming.

His second headshot in a row surprised the new viewers. Their shock was understandable because the compound bow was designed to be challenging. It functioned similarly to a real bow, so people only familiar with guns had to train with it.

Almond used it like an expert because he was one. His experience as a professional archer gave him more than an edge over everyone else.

[RubySword has donated 5,000 won]

[You newcomers don't know, but Almond only hits headshots.]

One of Almond's first viewers declared to the newcomers.

— That's true.

— Ah, let's embrace the newcomers. Everyone gets surprised at first.

— Type true in the chat if you don't know.?

Long-time viewers got on the bandwagon of poking fun at the newcomers. It annoyed the newcomers, but what could they do? They needed to know more about Almond if they wanted to talk back.

"RubySword, thanks for the donation. It's been a while. Ah, please don't pick on the newcomers. I'm going to check where the blue zone is first. It's coming in 30 seconds."

Almond not only improved his gameplay, but also became more competent at streaming. He easily read the donations, felt the atmosphere, and responded accordingly.

— True.

— Don't act cool to the newcomers. Almond is busy climbing the ranks.

— It's better for him if there are new people!

The viewers would refuse to listen later if he didn’t tell them to refrain from teasing each other now. He learned this technique from watching Bubblegum's stream.
