TS Vtuber Streaming Life - Chapter 20

While sharing various behind-the-scenes stories about songs during the broadcast, a lot of time had passed.

“Wasn’t our rank at 10 PM 126th?”

– Yeah.

– Is it really possible?

– For real, let’s go for the charts!

With the support of our members and the efforts of the viewers, we achieved the current rank of 126th.

“Since 9 PM we were 135th, let’s try a bit more.”

– Please!!! Let’s go!!

– I’m really immersed right now!!! Let’s go!!

– Let’s really make it to the charts.

– d*mn!!! Everyone run!!!!!

Deleted message.

– Let’s make it happen!!!!

At first, some viewers were stubborn about not streaming, but as they started to see the potential, they began to put in effort from 9 PM, leading to an overheated atmosphere where scratching became more frequent than usual.

That means they are really engaged, which is beneficial for me…

“At 10 PM, stores will start closing, so the ranking fluctuations will be bigger at 11 PM. Plus, we have a total funding, right?”

– For real.

– If it’s around 110th at 11 PM, count me in.

Deleted message.

– Hey, hurry up and do it!

Deleted message.

– Please, let’s all try together.

“Yeah, streaming is free, but please don’t disrupt the flow.”

– For real.

– I’m really working hard, so let’s not say I’m not.

– If you’re feeling guilty, return to normal.

– Let’s just listen to the song once.

“Okay, anyway, let’s all do our best!”

– You better do it too, please.

– Let’s give it a try!

– Everyone, let’s spread out some gifts during this time.

Aren’t people taking this too seriously?

It feels like they are more engaged than I am while singing.

And that atmosphere continued until the 11 PM chart was revealed.

[109. 17↑ Our Story Solana(Solana)]

“Alright, looking at the 11 PM chart, it shows 109th, right?”

Wow, could this really happen?

Feeling that we weren’t far from making it to the charts, I looked at the chat window.

– Let’s really cheer up!

– This is possible!

– Wow, the café seems to be booming ㄷㄷ

– It rises a lot as stores begin to close.

– Wow, is this really happening?

The viewers also seemed to feel that it was possible, radiating even more energy than before.

“Right now, without any complicated settings, just listen to the song through the app once. Just click the three dots and check the AAC option, and then when you listen to the song, it will be counted.”

– Guys, let’s just listen once!

– Seriously, please let’s go!

– My hands and feet are trembling.

– Seeing the ranking is triggering a dopamine rush.

“And we’re going for a total funding! For those who haven’t downloaded yet, now’s your chance! It’s 700 won, which is less than the minimum donation amount.”

Taking advantage of this atmosphere, I started to encourage quickly.

[Anonymous donated 1,000 won.]

Yes, I’ll donate.

“Use this money to quickly spread out gifts at the café.”

– d*mn, don’t donate, just throw out gifts quickly.

Deleted message.

– But seriously, seeing the potential is makes me feel ecstatic.

– Guys, let’s go!

[Anonymous donated 1,000 won.]

Isn’t there any pledge for the top 100?

“A pledge?”

– Karaoke broadcast?

– Oh, singing?

– Since we’ve uploaded a song, we should sing.

Hmm… it would be nice to do something like a pledge.

Should I… sing?

“Then, if we go above 100th, I’ll do at least one hour of singing broadcast.”

– Oh!

– Sounds doable.

– From now on, I’m going dual-wielding.

Seeing such a good reaction made me feel bad for not singing more often.

But honestly, premium content is the best.

But have I sung at all besides during my debut and ‘Melt’?

… Even with premium content, it was way too little.

– I’m definitely doing this!

– I didn’t want to do it, but I guess I have to now.

– I’ll even do my parents’ songs.

Still, I think it’s good that I succeeded in encouraging them to have goals.

And with this kind of effect, it would be best to keep using singing as a powerful tool in the future.

Thinking about how shocked the viewers would be led me to venture into another thought.

“Seeing everyone’s spirits rise makes me think I should have said it earlier.”

It’s a pity.

If I had said it ten minutes earlier, we could have worked harder and achieved even better results.

– hahahaha

– What the hell.

Deleted message.

– Hurry up, you should send out more gifts quickly.

Deleted message.

– You, hurry up and send gifts too.

“Oh, I was continuously sending gifts from my other phone.”

As I continued to encourage and communicate, suddenly there was only one minute left.

I was constantly refreshing the music app on the computer. On the right side of the screen, a small clock was displayed.

“Wow… I’m so nervous right now.”

– ?

– Please at least add some tremble to your voice.

– Are you really nervous?

– Show some sincerity.

– Isn’t it just from excitement due to the dopamine?

Hmm… It’s not that I’m not nervous…

Of course, I am more excited than nervous, but still…

“Alright! Focus! There are 30 seconds left now. And since there could be spoilers, I won’t be looking at the chat window.”

Just then, the chorus of [Our Story] that I had set up as background music started, and my voice came out.

– Wow!

– Her voice is amazing!

– That song sounds incredible!

– It’s infuriating that you played this and didn’t do a singing broadcast.

– For real, so it must happen.

The viewers seemed to be focused on the broadcast now, with the chat’s intensity improving compared to earlier.

“5! 4! 3!-”

– 22222222

– 222222

– 22222222222222

– 11111111

– 1111111111

– 11111111111

– 11111111

“12 AM!”

I refreshed the music app to access the 12 AM chart and slowly scrolled down.

As I scrolled down slowly, the numbers began to rise gradually, and in the silence, I could only hear the soft whirls of the mouse wheel.

60th… 70th… 80th… 90th…

So far, there hasn’t been our song until 90th place.

This was expected but…

With a slight anxiety, I briefly paused the mouse wheel.

Suppressing the urge to look at the chat window, I continued to scroll down more slowly.

95… 96… 97… 98…

And then…

99.

[99. 10↑ Our Story Solana(Solana)]

“We’ve achieved 99th place!”

Filled with rising dopamine, I screamed unconsciously.

– Wowwwwwwwwwwwww!

– This is it!!!!!!!!

– d*mn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Deleted message.

– We did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

– Awesome!!!!!!!!

Deleted message.

– Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

– Wowwwwwwwwwwwww!!!

– It really happened!!!!!!!!!

– Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

The chat speed was as intense as during my debut broadcast.

Or is it even faster?

Everyone seems to be immersed in the achievement of success.

As I looked at the chat window, the momentary rush of dopamine settled down, and I could think clearly again.

“Hm… we did it.”

I was happy to have achieved it, but honestly, I didn’t think we could.

– ???

– Now that it has been achieved, why is she behaving like this?

– Haha, I think she’s embarrassed.

“Well, most of you probably haven’t streamed before, but you all did great. Thank you.”

Wasn’t this song released a while ago?

I don’t remember exactly, but I’m sure I never heard that it charted on the day of release.

Then that must mean it got there faster than before…

It must be my influence?

Feeling secretly pleased at the truth only I knew.

[Supreme Roze donated 1,000,000 won.]

Wow!!!! First original song climbing the charts!!

“Ah, the second donation of 1 million won today! Is this the first one today? Anyway! Thank you!”

[Old Welfare Center Black Body Snatcher Roje donated 100,000 won.]

That’s insane! The dopamine rush is overwhelming!

“Yes, thank you for the 100,000 won. I told you it would be fun.”

[Loser Generator Roje donated 10,000 won.]

This is so much fun, the song is great too, let’s go higher!

… Why do the nicknames of the people in my room all look like that?

“Yes, thank you for the 10,000 won. To go higher, you guys need to stream more.”

– Wow!!!! I’ll do more!!!!!

– Seriously, release some tension.

– But it is fun.

– I’m so thrilled!!!!

“Then, shall we just set a date for the singing broadcast and call it a day?”

– No no no no no!

– Please, just a little more!

– After working so hard, you’re just gonna leave now after seeing the results?

Deleted message.

Isn’t that a bit too harsh?

“No, there’s nothing else to do now. Besides, I’ve been going for a while now since before the song was released.”

– Rather, let’s go tease Wooju like before.

– This time let’s go tease Ms. Han-byul.

Um… going to tease…

While pondering for a moment and continuing to watch the chat window, a comment caught my eye.

-Breaking news) Terry is crying.

“Wait? Is Terry crying?”

Really?

– You’re the only one who isn’t crying, haha.

– Please cry.

– Doesn’t this person cry?

Why are these people forcing someone to cry?

“Viewers, I apologize to those editing the chart-climbing reactions… but if it was a lie, that would be weirder. Also, having at least one person remaining calm is better.”

– Just making excuses because you’re not shedding tears, haha.

– This person just isn’t sad.

– Climbing the charts is a happy thing, so why are they crying? That’s probably what they’re thinking.

Well, that’s true.

Even if I’m not feeling it…

“And this time, I won’t tease. If I tease now, I feel like it would genuinely take me down.”

After considering it for a moment, I decided it was too risky and opted out.

It was already awkward earlier too.

– Haha.

– Some people in Wooju’s room also didn’t like it earlier.

– The sense of impending doom is seriously strong…

Ding dong.

“Just a moment.”

Who could it be?

Feeling curious, I checked the name and changed my mind.

I’ll cancel my previous statement about not teasing.

Struggling to suppress the automatic smile, I answered the call.

“Hello?”

Getting a call first is an exception!
