TS Vtuber Streaming Life - Chapter 118
[…Is it for real?]
“Of course.”
[Then! Burn the sign! I don’t trust you!]
Sua, unable to truly believe my words, dug a hole in front of her and filled it with lava.
“Yeah, whatever.”
And then I immediately threw all the signs I had into the lava.
[What…?]
“Why?”
[Is our youngest really the type to give up so easily?]
…Are they doubting this?
[But… I usually quit right before a brain freeze…? Aah! Headache!]
Hmm, I guess they were just in a severe state of doubt.
– Isn’t this the same as usual?
– ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Looks like doubts have taken over now ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– If they’re agonizing over whether to do it or not, they’re just the usual sadist?
ㄴDeleted message.
– Huh? Is Roje Somi’s Manitto?
The viewers’ reactions seem good enough.
“Somi, who’s your Manitto?”
Still, if this topic continues, I might slip up, so Sua changed the subject to who she picked.
[Will you tell me?]
“Yes.”
[Wow… it’s so bold it’s ridiculous.]
“Shall we exchange?”
[Huh? Really?]
“Yes.”
[Don’t lie.]
…That was direct.
“Hmmm… Then, shall we give each other one hint?”
[Hint?]
“Yes, something simple.”
– That sounds like a lie.
– It’s too much like a lie tone ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– Aha, this girl is trying to lie again.
ㄴDeleted message.
…I was genuinely thinking of telling her.
Of course, the information would be useless if she knew.
“If you don’t want to, then don’t.”
[Youngest… are you really my Manitto?]
Hmm…? Why does that conclusion come out like that?
Did I make some mistake?
[Why are you trying to give me information? Are you trying to confuse me by leaking false information?!]
“Don’t you watch too many mystery novels?”
What kind of reasoning led to that conclusion?
But since it’s a good method, I’ll just store it in my mind.
[I won’t be fooled by you!]
“No-”
[Aah! I can’t hear you!]
…She ran away.
– Karma is real ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– ㅋㅋㅋ Did the fishing fail? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– This girl will no longer work for fishing ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
ㄴDeleted message.
“Hmm….”
…With this, it’ll be hard to fulfill the one-hour mission together.
I don’t know what Sua is thinking, but at least it seems she will try to avoid me today.
“So then….”
I can’t compliment her today either….
And as for gifts… I can’t give them during the broadcast….
There’s nothing I can do for now?
“Um, ending the stream.”
Then I should leave early today.
At least I’ve been on for two hours, so that’s fine.
– Shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up
ㄴDeleted message.
– ???? Too early?????
– No, I’ve been streaming for long lately, what’s up
“As everyone has said, I’ve streamed for long lately, so it’s fine to cut it short for a day.”
After ending the stream, I need to ponder what to do for the mission.
“If you’re bored, watch the broadcasts of the other members and see if you can figure out who my Manitto is.”
– No ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Everyone already knows who it is ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– I knew right away when that started, you idiot.
ㄴDeleted message.
– Kyaa!!!!!!
“In exchange, I’ll definitely start the broadcast before 9 PM tomorrow. So please stop causing a ruckus.”
– Ah ㅋㅋ Then you have to hold on
– d*mn, you were going to do it anyway.
ㄴDeleted message.
– ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
– This is still your usual broadcast time, you fool, don’t act like you’re doing a favor.
Hmm, but at least it’s calmed down a bit compared to earlier.
[ㅇㅇ has donated 1,000 won.]
What if I’m late?
“Well, I’ll recite a line that you all suggested.”
There’s absolutely no way I’ll be late, so it’s okay.
– oK go
– Acknowledged
– ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Just try to be late, you’re dead ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
“Well then, I’ll really be going now.”
Click!
After pressing the stream end button and confirming that the broadcast was over, I stepped out of the soundproof booth with the computer still on.
“What should I eat for dinner….”
What’s left in the fridge?-
Ding
“Oh, a text came in.”
The moment I reached for the fridge door, I heard a notification sound and pulled out my phone from my pocket with my right hand while still holding the door handle.
“Oh.”
It’s from Yubin?
Did she send it to carry out the mission?
“The message says….”
[To Yeon-woo.]
Hmm, it’s a letter.
Looks like she chose to write a letter for the mission.
As I skimmed through it, it roughly praised me for being so nice and doing well on broadcasts, and so on.
“Hmm… I’m not really a good person, though.”
Well, anyway, it seems I have some content for tomorrow’s broadcast.
Since she used my real name, it doesn’t look like she’ll show the contents on the broadcast.
“Yes! A reading content idea is amazing.”
Now food-
Ding
“What? Another one?”
[Chicken gifticon]
…Is this the special gift she mentioned?
“Hmm, chicken is acknowledged as a special gift.”
Thank goodness it’s not some impractical, useless pretty trash.
Chicken is 100 times better for me than cosmetics or dolls.
“Wait… If that’s the case, then I’ve already succeeded, right?”
Wow… I’m jealous….
To end it without needing to think much….
“Then I should ask for funny lines.”
I need to balance it out myself.
***
The next day.
“Hmm… What should I do….”
For about 10 minutes, as soon as I logged into the server, I tried to secretly drop a gift and a simple letter into a box at Sua’s house to quickly clear the mission, but I ended up failing.
“Ugh… Now there’s no time….”
When I checked the time, it was almost 9 o’clock.
…It’s a shame that I didn’t have enough time because of singing practice.
No, I shouldn’t have made that promise yesterday….
“Ugh….”
But thankfully, since the broadcast is not on, I can take deep breaths since the microphone is off.
[Hmmm… Who could my Manitto be?]
The main reason for my failure is that Sua hasn’t come out of her house since she has been busy trying to guess her Manitto since earlier.
[Well, if we summarize the information that’s come out so far, it’s that Ms. Han-byul is the youngest’s Manitto….]
Ah, I shouldn’t know who’s who….
If I didn’t know who my Manitto was, hearing that information would’ve allowed me to use the process of elimination, which would’ve been good, but now that I know, what does it mean?
For me, it’s best if it stays hidden so that Sua can’t use the process of elimination.
[So the remaining candidates are Wooju, Terry, and the youngest.]
Hmm… It’s somewhat fortunate there are three of us including myself….
[But Wooju did compliment me today as well, but since she usually says nice things and praises me a lot, it’s really ambiguous.]
That’s true….
[Terry, I’m not sure about. I haven’t met her since the sign was erased at her house yesterday… neither have I with the youngest.]
I see?
[Ah… I want to narrow it down by one more….]
“Tsk… It’s no use. There’s not enough time to wait for her to come out….”
I guess I’ll just give up today and start the broadcast.
And if I’m lucky, I might stumble upon something like yesterday, right?
After making the decision, I moved cautiously and safely back to my house and started the broadcast.
– You idiot, Mark is on, why aren’t you streaming?
ㄴDeleted message.
– ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Roje has to perform her mission too, you guys ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– Even if Mark is here, the mission is more important…
– Ah d*mn, it’s before 9 o’clock
Hmm… Let’s skip the opening song today.
“Aah.”
– What happened to the opening song?
– Please give me a song.
– Did you finish your mission?
I need to quickly go back to Sua again.
[Huh? Youngest, what’s going on at our house?]
“I just saw a post on the café doubting if I’m Somi’s Manitto before turning on the broadcast. So I came to see.”
Starting the conversation like this, I might be able to fill up the hour if I’m lucky.
[Hmmm~ You came to me knowing that?]
“Yes.”
[What… Is the youngest really not?]
“I’m in a Schrödinger’s cat state, so I could very well be Somi’s Manitto or I could not be.”
[…Really?]
“Yes.”
[Who is my Manitto?! Aah… It’s giving me a headache….]
“Take some headache medicine.”
[…What? You’re the same as usual.]
– The fact is that from her perspective, this is a form of concern.
ㄴDeleted message.
– ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It’s so Tㅋ ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– At least it doesn’t seem like Somi is the Manitto ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– I wonder who she really picked?
ㄴDeleted message.
“But why is it so serious to find your Manitto? It’s still a day left, you know.”
[Ah… I want to get her to say some lines….]
…Why is she being so anxious?
“What lines do you want me to say?”
I decided to take a chance and probe her.
[Huh? Are you curious?]
“Yes.”
[Hmm~ It depends on who it is, doesn’t it?]
“Hmm… What if it’s Si-ru?”
[Si-ru is not my Manitto. It’s already been revealed who it is.]
“Please answer under the assumption that you’re right. I’m just curious about what lines you want me to say.”
[Hmm~ For Si-ru… I wanted to have him say a line from Boys Over Flowers, you know?]
“Wow….”
That cringy line?
…The future of me getting caught has become terrifying.
[Ah, if it’s you, it’s different, so don’t worry!]
“No… It can’t be less cringe, it has to be more so.”
[Of course!]
…But what does she mean by don’t worry?
“Hmmm… Can I ask what it is?”
[Should I tell you~? Or should I not~?]
“Just don’t do it.”
[…That’s no fun.]
“So what is it?”
[It’s a simple matter.]
“So, what is it?”
[I was just thinking of having you say a tsundere heroine line from a dating sim if you’re my Manitto.]
I froze!
“…Excuse me?”
What? d*mn?
