[TS] Starting the Broadcast - Chapter 115

As soon as I wake up early in the morning, I wash up and sit in front of my desk.

I turn on the computer and search for the name of my target on YouTube.

I check if there are any newly uploaded videos, and if not, I find and play existing ones.

Observe, grasp, imitate.

I repeat simple tasks to the point of boredom.

At first, just the voice.

Then, gestures that could be characteristic of that person.

Should I say it's fortunate that I don't have to imitate expressions thanks to being covered by a mask?

Anyway, I tried to imitate even one more point that could be mimicked.

"Then I'll start."

Around 10 AM, I eat a late breakfast/lunch and head to the academy.

And I continue practicing.

I have Seah and Arin take on Alice's role to practice the duet song, and repeatedly sing songs prepared for rounds 2 and 3 at the top of my lungs.

If I didn't have the Fatigue Recovery 3 ability, I would have gotten vocal nodules several times already.

That's how much I strained my vocal cords.

"Nom, nom."

I roughly fill up consumed calories with energy bars and check the special talent corner to be shown in the middle.

And repeat singing practice again.

Even the two who were actively helping with practice at first ended up running away out of boredom later.

"Good work."

"Alright, go home safely."

The director sees me off happily, expecting me to raise the academy's honor again this time following the JYC Entertainment audition.

On the way home, I stop by a convenience store to buy instant rice and ready-made food.

As soon as I get home, I put the food I bought in the microwave and wash up simply.

I change into comfortable clothes and bring the food to my desk.

I eat while observing videos again.

High notes, low notes, shouting sounds, swallowing sounds, spitting sounds... I try to capture all the characteristics of the target's voice.

One entertainment was added to that.

'Beautiful Assistant Alice... I figured out who she is.'

After acquiring the voice impersonation ability, I've become almost expert level when it comes to voices.

When I narrowed down the target's identity to actors and searched, I was able to find the protagonist more easily than I thought.

'As a beautiful assistant, she should help the magician's stage befitting that name. So, let's not feel too bad.'

The plan was gradually revealing its form.

---

-Let's go in, let's go in, let's go in.

-Host quickly open the door! If you don't open soon I'll break in!

-How long has it been since a regular broadcast?

-For real, with how I feel now I think I could even lick Hani's feet.

[Hanithighlickuser has been chat banned for 3 minutes.]

-Kick ㄲㄲ

-But does Hani really appear in Survival Game today?

-ㅋㅋㅋ You believe the gallery user's brain speculation?

The firepower was tremendous from the start compared to usual.

It seemed to be because it was a regular broadcast after a long time, not a mobile broadcast.

At times like this, it's easier to manage the chat window if you start strong from the beginning.

"Hello. 4th year reserve forces special warrior graduate. Ladies League winner and master of voice impersonation. Number one in heavenly voice and dance reactions. Master of internet cooking recipes and..."

-ㅋㅋㅋ The more I listen the more ridiculous it gets.

-Why did you become so shameless while we didn't see you?

-Stop talking nonsense and turn on the cam first.

I failed to seize the initiative.

Anyway, since I've been neglecting viewers lately, I turned on the cam without complaint.

-ㅓㅜㅑ! This is what I'm talking about.

-Overwhelming thanks!

-Today's exposure is crazy!

"No, excuse me? It's just a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, are you all in your right minds?"

It seems everyone's been starving(?) as they start bundling up with the weather getting colder.

I decided to proceed steadily without being shaken by strange reactions.

"Today's broadcast will proceed simply. We'll talk and then watch the Survival Game video when it's uploaded. The end!"

-?????????

-Is this perhaps a declaration that you'll coast through the broadcast?

-ㅋㅋㅋ Is there a BJ who spends a third of the broadcast time just watching a video?

-Unnies, my hands are numb and my head is shaking;;

-Does conscience exist for the host?

"Conscience? Right, you said it well."

I was a person with many grievances tied to the word conscience.

I practiced so hard and even did rolling dance, but I was backstabbed by devilish viewers who abandoned their conscience - that person was me.

I get PTSD as soon as I hear the word conscience.

The anger, sense of betrayal, desire for revenge from that time!

-Hehe, as expected Hani-nim is a broadcasting genius.

-An excellent choice. A perfect broadcast plan that no one can complain about!

-Hani for the National Assembly!

... Ugh! These sycophants.

When I access YouTube and go to the LegenohTV channel, I can see one video scheduled to be made public at 7 PM.

Fortunately, it doesn't seem like the video upload will be suddenly delayed or anything.

I decided to talk about recent happenings with viewers with peace of mind.

"Pepero Day has passed and now the only big event left this year is Christmas. But you all have girlfriends, right?"

-Ruthless! Ruthless! Ruthless!

-ㅋㅋㅋ If we had girlfriends would we be watching broadcasts here like this?

-Stop the fact violence!

-Are you joking with me now? Let's fight! I can't stand it.

"Why are you getting so angry? I can ask, can't I?"

-You come out this shamelessly?

-Please manage your aggro, host. You're being targeted now.

"No, I was going to rest if you were all busy dating. If it's like this, I was going to ask you to be with me that day."

-Is Hani a goddess! Is Hani a goddess! Is Hani a goddess!

-I'll set aside not just that one day but the whole week!

-ㅋㅋㅋ Look at her taming them.

As I talked with viewers about Christmas plans, it was soon time.

I access the LegenohTV channel and wait for the video to become viewable.

-Thump, thump.

-Isn't that Hyena and Haeyun in the thumbnail? They're blatantly grabbing attention ㅋㅋㅋ

It was as the viewer pointed out.

They place Hyena and Haeyun, two of New Continent TV's top 3 female camgirls, in a confrontational structure, and arrange their respective team members behind them.

-If it's a survival game on an uninhabited island, aren't Retro and Choegochangwon too advantaged? They're both good at this kind of thing.

-Ah, it's completely different from that. Even if Retro camps in the mountains and goes around outside a lot, he uses all modern equipment. This is throwing them in with just their bare bodies ㅋㅋㅋ

-For real, just starting a fire will be extremely painful.

"Ah! The video opened. I'll watch it right away."

-Ooooh!

-Survival Game! Survival Game! Survival Game!

As soon as I click the video, an impressive logo that clearly took a lot of effort crosses the center of the screen.

Followed by a heavy feeling background sound.

Someone was walking out from a shaded area of the dark screen.

The protagonist was BJ Legenoh in a suit.

"Nature that is always with us... How much do you know about its dangers?"

That appearance of opening his mouth with a serious attitude like a documentary.

It focuses people's attention and makes them anticipate what's to come.

"Mountains, seas, sky, land... We say we've conquered nature, but that may be an illusion and terrible arrogance."

Photos capturing beautiful natural environments flash by following Legenoh's hand gestures.

And what reappears is nature's wrath, judgment cast upon humans... terrifying natural disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis, typhoons, volcanic eruptions.

"Can humans really survive in the face of this enormous calamity that cannot be resisted? Survival Game! We will now begin."

The screen fades out and Legenoh's figure blurs and disappears.

Soon after the screen brightens again.

Helicam? Drone?

The view of nature looking down from the air was incredibly beautiful, as if filmed from above.

The name 'Mangsang Island (妄想島)' flashes by as a caption at the bottom.

"The name sounds a bit creepy. Since they said it's an uninhabited island, it must be an arbitrary name, right?"

-Yeah;; There's no island with that name in reality.

-Wow, the start is awesome. I'm really looking forward to it. As expected of Legenoh's class ㄷㄷ;;

-After all this, they're not going to drift, right? ㅋㅋㅋ

The screen changes again.

This time it's the shore.

The mudflat appears first, followed by the blue sea behind it, and a boat approaching while cutting through the water surface.

The boat stops at an appropriate position and soon a rope ladder and one boat are lowered.

The zooming screen shows the figures of people using the rope ladder to transfer to the boat.

It was exactly 8 people.

The group approaching Mangsang Island (妄想島) while rowing the oars with difficulty.

As the distance gradually closes, expected faces reveal themselves one by one.

The previously announced members: Mureuppak, Onecue, Mubak, Hyena, Achimjeomsimddaeng, Retro, Choegochangwon, and Haeyun.

You should know Hyena and Haeyun without explanation.

Beautiful women occupying the top 3 female camgirl positions of New Continent TV along with Bora.

Mureuppak and Onecue are typical game BJs whose broadcasts are similar, but their appearances are completely different.

Mureuppak with a huge build (which can be read as fat) and Onecue who is skinny and frail with skin as white as a woman's... Worried chats were already appearing among viewers.

Saying Onecue might collapse there and be taken to the emergency room.

It seemed his weak image was quite firmly established.

Next were Mubak and Achimjeomsimddaeng... commonly called Ajeomdaeng.

Both were mukbang BJs.

Now that I see, it seems the organizers deliberately recruited BJs like this.

Looking at them all together, the confrontational structure is blatantly revealed.

It was the same for the next players, Retro and Choegochangwon.

They were both BJs who mainly do content moving around outside like travel, camping, survival, etc., so it seemed they would be the core of each team while the other team members cooperate to proceed with the survival game.

[You are castaways on Mangsang Island (妄想島). Your goal is to survive on this island for 2 nights and 3 days. Good luck.]

A creepy premonition left by red, bold text.

That's how the full-scale survival game began.
