[Title: From Today, I Withdraw My Support for Ga-wol]
As of today, I step away from mere support—
Ga-wol and I are one.
Any attack on Ga-wol is an attack on me.
If there are 7 billion Ga-wol fans in the world, I am one of them.
If there are 100 million Ga-wol fans, I am one of them.
...
If there is one Ga-wol fan in the world, that person is probably me.
If there are no Ga-wol fans left, then I am no longer in this world.

[Title: What Is Our Team's Management Doing?!?!]
Seriously, what are they doing?
We’re screwed for the summer league, you jerks.
The team next door found new talent like Camellia.
This time they even brought in Ga-wol, but why is there no news from our side at all?
You said we should expect something this time...
Please, just show us something, anything…

In-game, I assumed it was just a well-crafted avatar,
but who would have thought his face is practically identical?
He looked slightly different during his live cam streams,
but in cosplay, it’s like his real self made an appearance.

Traveler, or Nam Hyun, kept a tight schedule.
He started early with physical training.
After a light breakfast, he dived into morning practice until just before lunch.
Even during his personal time after lunch, he rarely took breaks.
Whether it was European leagues, or matches in North America or Asia,
he kept track of any teams he found noteworthy or that were getting public attention.
If there were no matches to watch, he’d grab a teammate for one-on-one practice.
Videos that didn’t contribute to his skill improvement were almost never on his radar.
Who transferred to what team, or who had what going on—
gossip like that had no place in his world.
But this...
There was no way he could ignore this.
[Announcement – Welcome, Ga-wol]

[Views: 93,000 | 21 minutes ago]
The video had been posted around lunchtime, British time.
At a glance, the view count was skyrocketing.
It was a hot topic among his teammates in the team messenger, even drawing out the usually silent Reaper.
Though he was curious about their reactions, first, he needed to watch the video himself.
When he hit play, Ga-wol’s face appeared on screen.
The first thing that caught his eye was Ga-wol’s trademark smirk.
Though shadows fell over him from the backlight, his unreal beauty was undiminished.
If anything, the darkness only added to his captivating, mysterious aura.
The most striking part, however, was that this video had been posted on Sigma’s official channel.
Its significance was unmistakable.
The moment his gloved hand touched Sigma’s logo, even Traveler couldn’t suppress a shiver.
“So he finally debuted, despite all the uncertainty.”
Even Traveler, who had known a bit about the situation, was affected by this.
For those seeing this news for the first time, their reactions must be wild.
Unsurprisingly, the comment sections and community forums were buzzing nonstop.
This excitement knew no boundaries—age, preferences, none of it mattered.
The chat had long passed the point of moderation; it was impossible to keep up.
On any site related to Infinity Black, Ga-wol’s name was on everyone’s lips.
Not even borders could contain this fervor.
Many of the comments in the racing chat were machine-translated.
Even Traveler himself had only heard about this through his British teammates.
The blazing enthusiasm showed no signs of cooling down.
Even as the video transitioned to an interview segment, the chat was unreadable.
As the whole world watched, the interviewer began with a simple question.
“Could you start with a brief introduction?”
“Um, I’m Ga-wol, an assassin on the Korean server. My real name’s Han Da-eun. I think it’s my first time sharing that.”
“Indeed, it is. Nice to officially meet you, Han Da-eun. You looked incredible in the video, but you’re even more beautiful in person.”
“T-thank you…”
Traveler recalled his impression of Han Da-eun.
Different from the Ga-wol he’d known.
When he’d first met Han Da-eun, there was something unstable about him, a subtle air of decadence.
Back then, the gap between the two seemed vast.
Now, it felt like Ga-wol and Han Da-eun had met in the middle.
It was probably more than just him wearing the same outfit.
To Traveler, this was more than welcome.
It meant his goal, the towering wall he aimed to overcome, was still standing strong.
The promise to one day crush it remained alive.
“I’m sure many people are curious about this. Ga-wol, there were quite a few teams that would’ve welcomed you. Was there a particular reason you chose Sigma?”
“Well… it was thanks to Luche. I’ve been a fan of his for a while and he’s helped me a lot.”

Did you know?
“Luce” means light in Italian.

If joining teams is about connections, shouldn’t our players be trying harder too?

“Could you elaborate a bit more?”
“I… have some health issues, and Luche’s story gave me a lot of strength. He’s also provided me with practical support, so if I ever went pro, I really wanted to be on the same team as him.”
“We might’ve missed out on Ga-wol if it weren’t for Luche!”
“Most likely. I probably wouldn’t have entered the pro scene without him.”
Traveler had a general idea of what he meant.
Both Luche, who’d injured his arm, and Ga-wol, who couldn’t use his legs, had shared struggles.
Even in the Arena, Ga-wol had blatantly shown favoritism toward Luche.
For Ga-wol to speak so openly, Luche must’ve done a lot behind the scenes.
Sigma’s influence in the medical field was exceptional.
Even if he didn’t know the full story, it was clear some irreplaceable transaction had taken place.
Still, this was a problem for him.
Traveler stroked his chin.
“So now if I face Sigma… I’ll have to consider losing the assassin duel just because Ga-wol joined?”
Having defeated Cerberus, Ga-wol’s one-on-one combat skills were top-tier.
This was the same Ga-wol who’d handed Reaper, one of the top three assassins, a 2-0 loss.
There were only a few players in the world who could match him in close combat.
The troubling part was Ga-wol’s lack of official match footage.
Recently, he’d streamed some ranked matches, but those were just for climbing the ladder.
That wasn’t enough to fully analyze a top-tier assassin.
And then, there was the Swordmaster.
The nightmare-like skill he’d displayed in only two matches—that was the real issue.
“Though he seems reluctant to use it, as a pro, we can’t ignore it.”
Whatever his past, or why he avoided wielding the sword, he wasn’t sure.
The glimpses he’d seen suggested it might be for psychological reasons.
But in the end, Ga-wol picked up the sword in a moment of crisis and won.
Just because it happened once doesn’t mean it couldn’t happen again.
If he wanted to aim for the championship… he’d have to prepare for Ga-wol as both an assassin and a Swordmaster.
His opponent was a beast who hadn’t even shown his full power against Cerberus.
He couldn’t overlook him simply because there was limited footage.
With his debut, Ga-wol had handed every team a daunting challenge.
As he organized his thoughts, the interviewer posed the final question.
“Do you have anything to say to those watching this video?”
“I’m always grateful to my fans. To the players I’ll meet in the future… hmm. Not really? I heard declarations are for challengers. Some challenger said that.”
"I heard declarations are for challengers - some challenger said that." 🥶🥶🥶 BARS
