MasterDissection (5)
At Genome's words, the chat window filled up with question marks.
― New humanity?
― Did he mean god and just messed up?
― Hyung? Aren't you going too far with the jokes now?
― What is he even saying, lololol
― Oh, I get it lol, he means someone close to god
― Godple actually IS a god, though?
"All right, let's focus. I'll explain things a bit before the dissection."
Genome clapped lightly to get everyone's attention as the chat scrolled by at lightning speed.
"This could easily be misunderstood if you weren't listening carefully, so I'll walk through it step by step. First off, ordinary people obviously have their five senses. But we don't pay attention to all of them at once."
Genome tapped his own head lightly and continued.
"Why? Because our brains have a limit to the amount of information they can process. Plenty of people can't even do basic multitasking, right? Isn't that true?"
― So true, yeah
― I've got friends like that lol
― When the topic's 'friends', you know it's about yourself
― Back in the day, lots of streamers would have multiple games running on their PCs at once
― Grandpa...
Genome nodded along as the viewers chimed in.
"Right, limits might vary, but they exist. That's why the brain chooses what to focus on. It decides which sense to process first and how much attention to give it. You've all experienced how, when you get totally absorbed, your other senses kind of dull out, right?"
― Gaming's the classic example
― So true, sometimes I lose track of time completely
― On the flipside, if you can't focus, time really drags lolol
― If time goes too fast, it's time to do some planks
― Planks, what the heck lolol
― Tech neck is because of that too lol
― Yeah, you suddenly realize your neck and shoulders have inched forward
Everyone started sharing their own experiences. Genome clapped again to get them back on track.
"Okay, let me give you an example. You might have seen something like this while surfing the net."
With a snap of his fingers, a short text appeared.
[Guys, I can control your body lol]
[From now on, breathing will be manual.
From now on, blinking will be manual.
From now on, swallowing will be manual.
From now on, tongue position will be manual.]
The effect was instantaneous.
― Hey, you jerk!
― Manual mode effect is crazy lolol
― I suddenly feel super uncomfortable lol
― Hyung? Are you messing with me right now?
― There's no defending this one
― C'mon;; you have a reason for this, don't you?!
Genome chuckled at the uproar and raised his hand.
"Sorry, my bad. But the effect is clear, right? As soon as you become conscious of something you usually do unconsciously, your brain suddenly becomes aware of it. It proves how good we are at selective focus."
His smile faded. Now it was time to talk about Purple.
"So, I said that Purple's brain has all regions activated, right? But that doesn't mean Purple consciously controls every single action—that would be incredibly inefficient. BUT! If Purple puts his mind to it, he can consciously control even the tiniest movements."
― Oooooh....
-5555....
― Wow, that's how he does such insane moves?
-lololol
― So he really is new humanity lol
― Can you upgrade my brain, too?!
― Damn, look at hyung's dissection skills!
― There's a reason he's so amazing
The viewers were in awe.
"But there's something even more important."
Genome's analysis was just getting started.
― There's something even crazier than this?
― Isn't this already over the top?
― What? Why is this so interesting?
-lol can't wait
― Haha, this hyung's bad habit is acting up again
― We know you're good at broadcasting, hurry up and tell us!
As Genome dragged it out, the viewers clamored. He flicked his finger and displayed a new word.
[Synesthesia]
Question marks filled the chat window. Their incredulous faces were almost visible through the screen.
― Oh! I know what that is!
― Ah~ Synesthesia (I don't really know)
― I saw that word in my Korean textbook
― Like, the sunlight is crispy, or the sky is piercingly blue
― Oh, right! That's a synesthetic expression!
Genome clapped as some viewers showed off their knowledge.
"Nice examples. You guys are surprisingly smart! As you said, synesthesia is a concept commonly used in literature. It's when one sense evokes another."
― But why bring that up all of a sudden?
― No way...
― Purple has all five senses activated, right?
― Lol, godple's senses are synesthetic?
The viewers soon picked up on the direction Genome was heading.
"Yeah, but for Purple, it's not just a literary figure of speech—he might really have synesthesia. Ugh, it's tricky to explain since I don't have this kind of sense myself. What I'm about to say is pure speculation, so don't go spreading rumors, just listen."
Genome displayed Purple's brain scan on the screen again. It was still glowing brilliantly.
"All senses being active could mean all senses are interconnected. In other words, Purple could 'see' sound, or 'hear' smells—sensory experiences incomprehensible to ordinary people."
-????
― What is he even talking about?
― I can... see sound?
― Does that make him a superhero?
― There was that movie about a blind guy who sees everything through sound.
― Daredevil, you mean?
― Yeah, that's the one.
― So, is it like that?
The chat grew more animated. Genome calmly opened a new reference video.
"Look, guys, honestly, I know how weird this sounds. But if you see this, you'll get where I'm coming from. Focus up."
What he'd prepared was footage of Purple's basic physical test. It showed Purple racing through a dark forest, dodging traps.
"Those who watched the broadcast know—Purple didn't get caught in a trap, not even once. I know it sounds impossible, but it really happened."
― He never got caught? For real?
― I missed the live, I'm a jerk lol
― It was honestly amazing
― So true, 'Perfect' was on another level
― And yet, it actually happened
Viewers marveled as they recalled the scene. Meanwhile, genome pulled up another video.
This time, a close-up of Purple's eyes as he ran.
"Now, watch with me. See how Purple moves his eyes as he runs? But surprisingly, he's not actually looking at the traps."
The chat filled up with question marks again. Genome quickly explained.
"I marked all the places he looked for clarity. See? He's only looking at the shortest route forward—not once at the traps. What do you think this means?"
― Wait;;; Are you saying he dodged the traps without even looking at them?
― Is that even possible?
― Don't you have to see something to avoid it?
― Maybe he saw them from afar.
Genome addressed the chat and continued.
"Good point! I also thought, 'Maybe he's spotting them from far away.' That itself would be impressive, right? And, yes, sometimes his eyes were focused on distant traps, but that's actually impossible here."
He changed the screen to display a circle centered on Lee Gyeongbok.
"In real life, sure, that could work. But I designed this stage. The illumination is extremely limited. Traps past a certain range are in complete darkness—zero light. And with no light, can vision even work? Of course not. You simply can't see."
― Wow, damn, chills
― He really identified the traps without seeing them?
― So that means his synesthesia theory is correct?
― This is legendary
The chat was awash in admiration. Genome pressed on, switching to yet another video.
"Next up—the melee test. Remember this? Purple demolished it. Fifteen dummies each with a 0.5mm weak point turned to dust."
― That was honestly legendary lol
― And he did it all with just the gauntlets
― Damn, what insane control
― True, that was art
― No wonder martial arts are called 'martial arts', lol
Genome started the playback, this time in slow motion.
"What I want to highlight is this moment: Purple swings at one dummy, and others rush him from both sides. Meanwhile, a spear is being thrown at him from behind."
It was a hopeless situation for anyone else.
But everyone knew Lee Gyeongbok had already overcome it.
"When I watched this live, it happened so fast that I didn't even notice. But when I analyzed it frame by frame, I was shocked. Seriously, how did Purple know a spear was coming from behind?"
― Clearly, it must've been the sound.
― So obvious, isn't it?
― Actually, maybe there's more to it.
― Yeah, judging by how hyung's building this up, it must be something else.
― Genome! I give up thinking!
Most viewers assumed it was sound. But Genome shook his head.
"I thought that, too. But I was wrong. Listen for yourself."
He turned up the volume; the sounds were stretched to match the slow playback. The gauntlets and dummy collided with a long, ringing noise, and Lee Gyeongbok struck both dummies coming from the sides in quick succession.
"There's never a break in the noise, it all comes from close by. The faint sound of something coming from behind would be completely drowned out—so he shouldn't have known about it. But then what happened?"
The video cut in. Having cleared both dummies, Lee Gyeongbok twisted his waist and unleashed a backspin blow.
Clang! The gauntlet and spearhead collided, the trajectory shifted, and Lee Gyeongbok nonchalantly struck the dummy's weak point.
"See? He didn't just sense it; he deflected and countered it perfectly. Even watching with your own eyes, it'd be hard to pull off that move. If my synesthesia theory is correct, then this means he sensed the changes in the airflow as the spear cut through it."
― Wait;; other masters stumble over basic stuff, so why is he so much more amazing?
― Wow, it looks even crazier in slow motion
― Can't you tell? He's got eyes in the back of his head LOL
― He can sense the flow of air? Is that for real?
― Whatever it is, he's a god!
The chat window boiled over with excitement and confusion. Genome let out a small sigh.
"Okay, say he did hear it. But to gauge the distance with such precision? That would be a whole different kind of crazy."
He shook his head as he continued.
"Hey, I do feel bad for all the masters who came before, but compared to Purple, they're all just god-tier ordinary people."
― True, there's no denying it
― He's just... 'perfect'
― Masters now officially downgraded to 'god-level normies' lol
― Not a theory, just plain fact
― So there was only ever one true master lolol
While the viewers joked, genome wrapped up the reference videos and opened a new one.
"But wait, there's still one more. And this is the wildest part."
― Eh?
― Ek?
― Stop! Please stop!
― What, is today some kind of occult special?
― Are you going to shock us again?
― What now? Lol
― Hyung? Is this a Rickt Show? Right?
Nobody could believe him, but Genome played the next video anyway.
"This is the ranged, shooting test scene. The scene itself is proof of a divine-rank, but I couldn't help analyzing it. Here's what I found."
The data split into two feeds. One camera tracked the bullet Lee Gyeongbok fired, the other focused on the muzzle.
― Here comes another slow-mo scene lol
― Sloooow
― Godple can't even be analyzed with human eyes!
― True, nobody caught this yesterday
― When you see it like this, every moment is legendary
― Hoo, hitting dead center!
― Bullseye? Nope, it's a Purple-eye!
Flame roared from the muzzle, and the bullet drifted slowly toward the target.
"Here!"
Genome shouted, freezing the frame. Question marks filled the chat.
"Let's slow it down more."
He adjusted the playback. For a fleeting '0.000001' seconds, something was captured.
― Huh?
― What?
― No way lololol
― Is the gun barrel starting to turn?
― He can react that quickly?
-???: Not hard, honestly.
As the bullet hit, the gun muzzle began to shift ever so slightly. But that wasn't what Genome was trying to show.
"This is just a taste. The next part is even more unbelievable. Watch closely."
He added another screen. At first, it looked like empty space—viewers were confused.
"Zooming in here. See? Can't you see it?"
With the close-up, a tiny fragment marked by Genome became visible.
In slow motion, the fragment multiplied and transformed into a full target. At the same time, the bullet pierced directly through.
― Wowwww, lololol
― He figured out the aim point from that tiny fragment?
― Lol, this is a Rickt Show
― Fake, nice try
― Hyung? Are you trying to troll us or what?
― So this is the perspective of a god...?
Chat exploded in shock. But Genome had more.
"No, I don't think he even saw it. This is the first time I caught this."
Genome flicked his finger, rewinding the video to the moment when the target piece appeared.
Then the audio graph popped up.
"There was a sound when the target materialized. Unless you specifically isolated it, you'd never notice—it's that faint."
-?????????
― He heard that?
― No way, the gunshot would drown it out.
― So the synesthesia thing? Like, seeing the sound?
― Haha, there's no way he's human
― Lol, realized it, Purple's a reptilian
― Phew, thought he was a god, but he's an alien
― People in the chat losing their minds
Genome chuckled awkwardly at the chaotic chat, then clapped for attention again.
The videos and brain scans faded, leaving only Genome on screen.
"Okay, everyone, listen up. As you all know, I never do this, but... I have to give up on this dissection."
Genome's declaration of surrender.
An unprecedented event in the history of the MasterDissection content. After all, if the dissection were abandoned, what did the term 'Dissection' even mean?
But there was a clear reason for giving up.
"Purple's physical abilities... They're beyond my understanding. How could I explain all five senses merging together? It's something totally new. You could even call it a sixth sense."
― Whoa, that's a SixthSense-level twist!
― Yeah, that's some SixthSense stuff, wow
― Now I get why you called him new humanity
― Can't we get Godple back to explain it himself?
Genome shook his head as he read the chat.
"Nah, I doubt even Purple could explain it. Can you describe what your sixth sense really is? Of course you can't. There aren't even words for this. That's why I tried to find a term that'd be easy to understand. Synesthesia was the best I could come up with."
― Today hyung is just spitting facts
― True, totally logic-based analysis
― Wow... wonder what that feels like
― Seriously, I'm jealous
― The sixth-sense man, Purple...!
― Bet it's small... It's gotta be small...
― Wait, are you losing your mind? Lol
Genome clapped to get everyone's attention.
"Anyway, sorry this dissection wasn't super clear, but there's one thing I'll say for certain."
He looked straight at the camera, confident.
"No joke—Purple really is a legendary, heaven-sent genius."
A person beyond the threshold of ordinary humanity.
It was proof that someone like Lee Gyeongbok was, indeed, a prodigy.
