I Quit Being an Idol and Became a Youtuber - Chapter 67

[Returning VTuber’s Recent Developments](The Island Survival Logo)

=This guy started playing a dinosaur game right after returning.

I left immediately out of curiosity, d*mn it, hahahaha.

-That’s the essence, you b*stard.

-Oho, how dare you?

-VTuber fans are really something, hahahaha.

Isn’t this a dinosaur nerd?

-What?

-But that game looks unexpectedly fun.

-If you lose, you had to do a dinosaur impersonation penalty, hahahaha.

-Oh, hahahaha.

#[Kim Cheong-ha is hilarious, d*mn it, hahahaha]

(Cheong-ha’s gameplay scene)

=This girl got excited making an adult Alosaurus and fell off a cliff due to inertia, dying, hahahaha.

I can’t even, d*mn it, hahahaha.

-Oh, hahaha.

-Didn’t control the speed well? Hahahaha.

-Uh? (d*ath)

-Oh, she looks suddenly cute… I can’t stand it.

-You’re falling for Cheong-ha.

-She’s really controlling like cr*p, hahahaha.

#[Tyrannosaurus: The Loser of the Era Defeated by Spinosaurus]

(Spino vs. T-Rex chase)

=Our ruler, Kim Cheong-ha, proves that.

-d*mn you, you b*stard.

-I came in after seeing the title.

-??? : Cancel that, don’t say that…!!

-?? : Ace!

-Donut guy, hahahaha.

-Once again, One Piece wins today…

-But the ruler is sh*t, hahahaha.

-There’s only one in Korea anyway, hahahaha.

-Emperor: 1, total population: 1.

-This makes it look like a total mess, d*mn it.

-Now, repeat after me. Spino is a giant heron. Sign it quickly, you b*stard.

-Tyrannosaurus is the loser of the era defeated by Spinosaurus.

-For real, hahahaha.

#[VTuber’s Rating of Dinosaurs]

=Tyrannosaurus: A slow lizard baby, pure raw damage.

=Succomimimus: Is that a slug, or a dinosaur?

=Allosaurus: Hey, this is surprisingly fun, ahh!

=Dooly: Surprisingly good but Spino is faster.

=Dilophosaurus: d*mn b*stard.

-Seriously, why is there no fabrication in this? Hahahaha.

-It’s hilarious that he actually said all that himself, hahahaha.

-Meanwhile, what is Spino even doing?

-With 8 tons, it runs faster than 1.5 tons, hahahaha.

-Looking at it this way, that game balance is really messed up.

-But it’s only fast when boosted, normally it’s the slowest.

#[So that’s why the impersonations are happening]

=If you want to see Kim Cheong-ha go “Gyao~” no matter what, you should really vote for this.

-Really support it.

-No, downvote it.

-That’s fine.

-So what voice impersonation do I really need to do?

-VTuber impersonation? Possible.

-Oho… Are you a loli or an older sister? That’s the problem…

-So it’s really weird, d*mn it, dude.

-You better say it’s either a baby or an adult, d*mn it.

-Why are the voice acting people so serious about dinosaur voices?

-Well, who cares, it’s fun.

-We just need a dopamine rush, that’s enough.

#[Cheong-ha’s Voice Acting Suggestion]

=How about this one?

(Character picture)

It’s a gacha game character, and according to the setting, it’s a were-Tyrannosaurus.

Being voiced by the same streamer, it might have a decent vibe?

-d*mn, how did you find something like this? Hahahaha.

-Why does this even exist?

-This is pretty unique…

-Fact: But in the meantime, the design is well done.

-Should we just go with this?

-But I can’t do a roar impersonation…

-There’s probably a roar among her lines?

-Yeah, there is.

-d*mn, let’s hurry.

#[Wait, I just heard it]

=How the hell did Jang Bi-so record this? The lines are cringy as hell, d*mn it, hahahaha.

-So true, hahahaha.

-The lines feel like a bit of a middle school disease, though, hahahaha.

-But during events, she’s super adorable.

-After all, she’s not just recording one game…

-By now, she should be used to it and look fine, right?

-Agreed, at her level, she’s almost a celebrity.

-No way, come on.

-But sometimes when she does a cam stream, she’s prettier than most celebrities.

-This is for real.

-But the OST was done by Cheonseolhwa, right?

-Fact: She probably felt super embarrassed after finishing the recording.

* * *

“So, you guys brought this, huh?”

-Yeah.

-Now, you can’t escape, right?

-We worked hard to pick this out…

-Wah-wah, praise us.

-Well done~

-This deserves some praise for real.

Sigh, this is crazy.

I quietly stared at the character picture in front of me.

The first thing that caught my eye was the pitch-black purple hair.

Hmm, this has a similar color scheme to my avatar.

The difference is, my hair is navy blue like the name Cheong-ha, and my eyes are purple too.

While I’m wearing just a black dress, she’s in a maid outfit?

And maybe because of the expression? The impression looks similar to the real me.

Coincidentally, our eyes both have light colors.

What’s this, a mixture of my avatar and my reality.

Is this the Sakamiya Ren of this world, or something like that?

“Okay, I see. Well, since you wish for it…”

Thinking about it, it didn’t seem too hard.

As I mentioned last time, I’ve done a lot of voice acting.

Isn’t landing a human dubbing better than a dinosaur roar I’ve never done before?

“Oh, here are the lines.”

So, I searched for the compilation of the character’s lines on YouTube.

I clicked on the video that appeared at the very top.

But…

“??? No way, what is this…?”

In an instant, a barrage of lines hit my ears.

I unconsciously pressed the back button.

Hey, this is a Tyrannosaurus.

Huh? The king of dinosaurs, right?

But what are the lines?

‘Become delicious~!, Frozen to d*ath.’

Is this a prayer you say before eating your prey?

Something like that? Huh??

No, more than that, what’s the reason for this character’s existence in the first place?

The basic design seems alright, and the production company is famous, so it might sell well.

-??? What is this?

-They said it was a T-Rex! Hahaha.

-The king of dinosaurs (laughs).

-Fact: All other lines are just middle school disease.

“Ugh…”

Still, I can’t break the promise I made.

I desperately watched all the compilations to find at least a better line.

‘…Grandma, just let me roar.’

Thanks to the bizarre lists, I felt a moment of reality check.

Yet, in the end, I managed to pick one line.

Turns out, the first line about the omelet rice was just for events, while the original character had slightly different lines.

The problem is…

「…Get lost.」

「Don’t come near me!」

Hmm, what should I say.

Those lines still feel a bit middle school disease-ish? It gives off that vibe.

Wow, I’m curious how the person who recorded it did it.

I heard it wasn’t a professional voice actor but a streamer instead.

Forget skill for a moment, I bet after recording, they experienced a reality check thoroughly.

“…Don’t clip this, seriously. I won’t let it slide.”

The moment a single word I say goes out,

Huh? That day, my stream is done for.

-Hey.

-Dam.

-Guys, let’s quickly put the cameras away.

-Yep (holding the phone).

Leaving behind a slightly uneasy audience, I started listening to the lines once more.

‘What’s better here?’

Should I go with middle school disease, or cuteness?

I should probably choose cuteness, considering the demand…

[Anonymous donated 1,000 won]

=Hurry and decide. The public sentiment is turning.

[Anonymous donated 1,000 won]

=Then should we just do it all? Hahaha.

“Ha… I’ll try once.”

Since sitting here and thinking won’t change anything, I decided to just go for it.

Right, huh? People want to see someone struggle with this.

Both sides seem to have decent demand.

“Ugh…”

Let’s see, my line is this?

It’s a bit more of a middle school disease than a traditional cute line, but whatever.

“Ah, for today, I’ll be your maid— Ugh.”

Boom-!

Ah, this is impossible.

Desperately reciting the lines, Cheong-ha ultimately slammed her fist onto the desk.

Thinking that someone was watching me in real-time felt a bit.

No, a lot different.

No matter how much experience I have, this isn’t the same as being observed by just the director and other colleagues.

This is me performing for countless strangers.

What’s more, I’m a VTuber, so my expressions are being sent out live.

The pressure from the fact that even NG scenes get streamed without edits is on a whole different level.

-Hahahaha.

-Long time since I’ve seen the host shotgun scene.

-What’s up? You need to finish it.

“Dammit…”

So the first attempt failed.

“I’ll go again. Moe Moe— Kya.”

…The second also failed.

Sigh, I think I messed this up.

After repeating several attempts.

“…No matter what. By your command, I will now begin the hunt.”

I finally succeeded in reciting the entire line.

Ah, so embarrassing.

-Ah, my ears…

-My ears are in paradise.

-This is what vacation feels like.

-For real, hahahaha.

“…For now, I’ll just end the stream today.”

I declared the end of the stream immediately after seeing my excited audience.

-???

-What did you say?

-What did you say, bro?

-Did the leader go crazy?

-Is this dude really sane??

I don’t know, if it goes beyond this, my brain can’t hold on.

“For now, I’ll turn it off. I’ll turn it back on later when I come to my senses. Okay?”

Right now, I’m in a state of clarity, and I don’t think I can do a proper stream.

After declaring the end of the stream, I fell back onto my bed.

As I buried my face into the cool pillow, the heat from my embarrassed head began to cool.

“…I wonder how the world is doing these days.”

Yeah, thinking about it, it’s about time for the COVID season; let’s take a look at how the world is doing.

Let’s see how Japan plans to manage their pandemic.

I hope the Prime Minister does his job properly this time.

Korea still has to be handling it well, right?

When I logged onto the internet, the first thing that appeared was:

[Famous girl group Cornelia prepares for a legal battle with their agency…].

It was news about our group, which was in the midst of societal conflict.

“Ugh.”

A legal battle, huh?

Just hearing that makes me feel dizzy, and Ren quietly closed her phone.

At least it seemed like there wasn’t much of a stir in Korea.

Still, I felt like I needed to throw on some more clothes.

‘A legal battle…’

Well, to be honest, I’m not too worried that anything massive will happen.

A few circumstances and evidence have come out, and there’s even some internal whistleblowing.

More than anything, there are people who could support our team.

Specifically, the weight class of support Si-on can request is pretty significant.

If they mess up, that company won’t even dream of advancing overseas.

“I don’t know what will happen, but I’m really looking forward to it.”

Just a moment ago, I was feeling down from reality check, but imagining that made the corners of my mouth rise.

Ah, this is what excitement feels like.

Should I just turn the stream back on now?

I contemplated briefly, but ultimately decided against it.

After all, I didn’t say I wouldn’t stream today, and I hinted I would later.

Looking at the computer for too long isn’t good for my eyes, either, right?

I figured it would be better to just give my eyes a break.
