Life is Easier If You're Handsome novel Chapter 239

"A Single Photo That Shook the Boxing World."

"Fists Against Fists—Was There Ever a Noble Reason?"

"The Most Primal Emotion—A Battle Between Males."

One fun little photo posted by Kim Donghu as a provocation...

had sent the entire boxing industry into chaos.

Until now, the narrative had been simple—Edward raged, Donghu calmly responded.

But this time, Donghu had landed a counterpunch so devastating that Edward might never recover.

Before, both fandoms had maintained a somewhat playful atmosphere.

Now, things had become too serious for that.

【 So you really think Kim Donghu can win? An Asian? Ridiculous. 】

【 Edward is the greatest boxing talent in history. 】

【 Just because he starred in Tarzan, he thinks he’s actually Tarzan? Idiot. 】

【 Go back to your country. 】

【 He’s out of his league. How dare a small country even challenge us? 】

【 I’ll kill you. 】

Edward’s fanbase had officially dropped all pretenses and started openly attacking Kim Donghu.

【 Do you know the sound a man makes when another man takes his woman? 】

【 This will prove how weak modern men have become. 】

【 Kim Donghu has already won. You’re just too blind to see it. 】

Kim Donghu’s fans refused to back down.

But in the West, his fanbase was clearly at a disadvantage.

However—

[Edward's current mood right now, lmao]

(A fan-edited comic cover of a black-haired, golden-eyed pretty boy.)

— Lmao, what else? He’s completely screwed now.

— One photo and he immediately realized the difference between them.

ㄴ You can see the dominance just from the picture.

ㄴ Someone even edited the comic to make the character look like Edward. Absolute legend.

[Edward’s coping email to the universe]

— I am an undefeated, heavyweight British champion with an incredible fortune.

— I have decent looks, a huge fanbase, and I’m a known boxing genius.

— I have the perfect career, yet...

ㄴ ???: Do you know the sound Jane makes when Tarzan takes her?

ㄴ This is the most devastating sentence in history.

ㄴ The whole world knows Edward had a crush on Evelyn, and yet Donghu sends this???

ㄴ The undefeated boxing champion just got turned into a fanfic protagonist.

[Didn’t we tell you not to pick up a black-haired beast?]

— The boxing world just adopted a monster.

— How’s that taste? Spicy, huh?

ㄴ Challenging Kim Donghu to a battle over a woman? Completely meaningless.

ㄴ Okay, fine, Edward is handsome. But next to Donghu? He’s a damn squid.

ㄴ Kim Donghu isn’t just Asia’s face. He’s Earth’s representative.

In Asia, the comparison was so one-sided that it wasn’t even a contest.

The West had plenty of top-tier fighters.

But in the East, there was no young, promising heavyweight like Kim Donghu.

Naturally, all of Asia rallied behind him.

And as the situation escalated—

“How much should we even sell these tickets for?”

“Has there ever been a fight this big? Honestly, we could fill Wembley with 90,000 VIP seats, and it would still sell out.”

Top Rank Promotions was in complete disbelief at the unprecedented level of hype.

In the past, they had to secretly gift tickets to important figures.

Now, that was impossible.

This translation is the intellectual property of Novelight.

Every single seat in Wembley Stadium had turned into premium inventory.

“...How many people are even going to watch this?”

“I have no idea. We can’t predict it. And who the hell do we even hire for the opening show?”

England, the land of Shakespeare.

Naturally, people were drawing comparisons to Romeo and Juliet.

A love story for the ages.

The stakes were growing exponentially.

Far beyond what anyone had ever imagined.

And just when they thought things couldn’t get any crazier—

Bang!

A breathless promoter burst into the meeting room, shouting—

“The British Royal Family just contacted us! They want to attend the fight!”

“...WHAT?!”

Absolute madness.

A nation was now involved?

The British Royal Family had never attended a boxing match before.

For polo, horse racing, or fencing—sure.

But boxing?

How the hell were they supposed to price the tickets now?

Panic spread through the room.

“We can’t just... suddenly raise the prices like crazy.”

“There’s still some time before the fight, right? It’s October now, and the match is in... April? May?”

“No. It’s been moved up. March. Edward pushed for it.”

“Did Donghu agree? This isn’t something one side can just decide.” freewёbnoνel.com

“He welcomed it. Said he’d rather get it over with quickly.”

“Hah. Insane. That’s unbelievably ballsy. But wait—wasn’t Tarzan set for April? Is his contract okay?”

“Tarzan was also moved up. To February. The studio’s in chaos too.”

“...Oh. Ohhhh. Okay. Yeah. That makes sense. Of course it does.”

Top Rank Promotions’ president, Bob, calmly rubbed his face.

Twenty-three times.

After taking a deep breath, he finally made a decision.

“Make everything top-class. My gut tells me... this fight will be watched by at least 100 million people.”

A legendary match that would never be seen again.
