TS Vtuber Streaming Life - Chapter 47
The next day.
“Yes. Manager.”
[Um… Can I talk about that thing?]
“Yes.”
If it’s about what I’m going to do now, there’s nothing else, right?
[Doesn’t Mr. Yeon-woo have an alternate character?]
As expected.
“You know I won’t do it, right?”
[I know, but… since it’s gone to first place… ]
“I’m not doing it.”
[How about just once in a variety show…?]
“Whatever variety show it is, I would have to show my face and voice, so I’m not doing it.”
[Then, revealing that it’s Roze… ]
“I understand you’re currently obsessed with being first, but you know that, right?”
[Yes… No, but. Don’t you think it’s a waste for Mr. Yeon-woo?]
Having experienced being first definitely feels significant.
It was a close call, but giving up the title of hitting first place on the day of release feels a bit regrettable.
But.
“It’s fine as long as our group gets to first place; what’s there to regret?”
The single’s first release is steadily increasing in YouTube views, and since we have songs from Mr. Composer for the regular first release, I can certainly shorten the time compared to before regressions.
Within… two years, it should be possible, right?
[Wow… I didn’t expect to hear something like that from Mr. Yeon-woo.]
“Hmm… Is that a compliment?”
[Yes.]
“Well then, is there anything else?”
[Yes. Then, I’ll cut off all proposals for Mr. Yeon-woo related to an alternate character.]
“Oh, thank you.”
[If you’re thankful, please keep the incidents moderate-]
“Then, I’ll hang up.”
[No, I still have something to say-]
Click.
Well, now I guess I should start the broadcast.
[Received recommendations for today]
After explaining and preparing the broadcast title, I pressed start.
-ㄹㅎ
– 로하
– ㅎㅇ
– Can I recommend anything today?
Glancing at the chat coming up in the waiting screen, I played [Moment] as the opening song.
– Ah, this song is nice
– Isn’t this a song from your company’s singer?
– Is this an ad?
– Wow! This is good!
Do they notice?
I played it with the confidence that they wouldn’t catch on, but it’s just a little nerve-wracking…
While I was nervously restless with excitement, my part started to come up.
– This person is really amazing
– They sing well
– Personally, I think their voice is on par with Roze’s
Deleted message.
– Roze: Comparison is out
– hahahaha fool
Deleted message.
– But for real, the featuring voice is really good
– Does anyone know who the featuring is? Why is it a six-digit number?
It’s fun…!
As I watched the chat’s reactions, the song ended, calming the upward curve of my lips, and I turned off the waiting screen to bring my avatar online.
-?
– Why are you splitting?
– Did something good happen today?
– Why does their expression show when they tease someone?
… Can they tell?
I tried not to show it as much as possible, but maybe I couldn’t completely hide it.
-?
– Is that?
– Is this splitting?
Ah, it’s just people who are perceptive catching on.
Relieved by that and being conscious of the corners of my mouth, I turned on the microphone.
“Aah.”
– What is it?
– Was it a misunderstanding?
– What is it hahahaha trolling?
… But what should I say?
Saying it’s a company dinner feels awkward since I can’t reveal what it was for…
And I don’t want to make excuses unrelated to it either…
After a moment of contemplation, I opened my mouth.
“I went to a gathering.”
– A guy?
– Is it a guy???
Deleted message.
– This j*rk suddenly took a break and hung out with a guy?
Deleted message.
– Roze!!! Me!!! Horns!!!!
“There was a guy, but it was a group meeting.”
Of course, there were more guys.
… Mostly over 50 years old.
– Ah, what? Was it a gathering?
– Phew… I almost turned black for a second…
– I thought I was being ntr’d;;
Um… Are the chats I want not coming up?
The chat calmed down, but I waited for a moment for a full clarification.
– But why are you hesitating before saying it? It’s nothing special, right?
Oh, here it comes.
“There’s someone asking why I hesitated before saying. I was wondering whether to say it or not as I thought you all were going to go into a fit about whether I met a guy or not.”
Hmm, with that, I’ve cleared things up neatly.
“It was just a meeting, you know? I met with friends.”
Ms. Se-young could be considered a friend in a broad sense, right?
Oh, could Mr. Composer even be counted as a friend from a broader perspective?
– Thanks for being honest…!
– Nobody’s going to fuss over meeting friends, right? hahahaha
– Fact) It was crazy
Deleted message.
Fortunately, it seems the viewers accepted it, and the topic transitioned smoothly.
“Well then, let’s get some recommendations for what to do today.”
I figured I would change the topic to something they would be most interested in, as I thought I would slip up if I dragged it more.
– Game, let’s go
– Isn’t it too long since you sang?
– Please… asmr…
– Can’t we do a mukbang?
If I have something to play for games, I can consider it…
I’m not going to sing…
I don’t have the equipment for ASMR…
So why is mukbang here?
“Well, of all the things you mentioned, the most appealing one seems to be the game.”
There’s nothing but games.
But do I have a game to play?
It’s rare to have games that the viewers want to play that I haven’t played yet…
– A new title is coming out at dawn today; will you play it?
– A souls-like new title is coming out at 12.
– Aren’t you going to do a physical test?
Ah, so this is that time?
“[Are you talking about Shadow Soul 3]?”
The [Shadow Soul] series is a masterpiece that created a new genre of souls-like and produced many fans.
As a gamer myself, I had fun playing the first and third installments, banging my head against the wall.
The second one… well… it was a bit… so I gave up…
– ehhh
– ehhh
– yes
– ehhhhh
Anyway, I finished that before going back…
While [Beast Hunter] has multiplayer, the direction is different, so if I’m going to play, I should find fun in a different way…
Oh, wait a minute.
“Everyone, take a half-day off tomorrow.”
– Wow!!!!!
– Kidding!!!!!!
– Are you going to do this?
This method seems to be enough to generate buzz and should be fun, right?
[User ㅇㅇ donated 5,000 won.]
But why are we taking a half-day? Isn’t that just a quick play?
Ah, I got too excited and forgot to say the reason.
“I’m going to do a speedrun while playing as a king.”
If a Korean VTuber clears it first, it should definitely garner attention, right? After all, there shouldn’t be anyone who could beat a regressor in a speedrun.
[Supreme Roze donated 100,000 won.]
Everyone!!! Shout!!!! Great Roze!!!!
“Oh, thank you for the 100,000 won.”
– Wow!!!! Great Roze!!!!!
– Just shine, shine, shine!!!!
– I guess you really felt sorry for taking a break yesterday, huh?
Deleted message.
– Wow!!! I’m letting you go for taking a break yesterday!!!!
It seems I got caught slightly for delaying the announcement about yesterday’s break and lying just now, but with everyone’s excitement, it made me feel a lot more at ease.
“Then, until it opens, I’ll check the cafe for a moment.”
– ehhhhhhh
– Wow, I’m so excited
– I just called to take off tomorrow hahahaha that’s perfect hahahaha
Expending time checking the cafe like this, midnight approached.
“Alright, shall we get started?”
[Mission: Clear tutorial boss on first try]
[Remaining time: 29 minutes]
[Prize: 300,000]
– Can Roze clear the tutorial boss on the first try?
– hahahaha Roze should definitely clear it
– Those who don’t believe this should watch the rehabilitation video hahahaha
– Is this an influx? hahahahaha what a mission
“It’s been a while since there was a mission, right?”
After knowing my gaming skills to some extent, I hadn’t been given a mission like this; could it really be an influx?
“If I get assigned a mission and can’t clear it, that would be rude, right?”
– hahahaha
– Wow hahahaha look at the lines hahahaha
– That confidence is amazing hahahaha
“Oh, right. Just a moment.”
I think I forgot that?
– What is it?
– What’s that
– I can hear some rustling?
I’ve ended up buying something while I’s been playing games a lot on stream.
Click! Click!
“Ta-da! I got a gamepad!”
– Oh
– Isn’t that a pricey sound?
– The trigger sound is great!
It’s a gamepad that costs 200,000 won!
Before, I used to buy a 30,000 to 40,000 won one and replace it with the same product when it broke, but now since this is my job, I splurged!
– But weren’t you a mouse/keyboard user? Can you use a pad?
Ah, the viewers probably don’t know.
“I’m a pad user.”
– For real????
– But you had that physical with a keyboard/mouse?????
– Crazy gamer hahahaha was that me sealing the power?? hahahaha
Deleted message.
Anyway, I connected the pad and officially started the game.
As the grand background music and narration played, showing the bosses I would meet later, I finally became able to move the character.
“Hmm~ This dark atmosphere feels different after a long time.”
I tried moving around with the pad.
“Hmm~ This terrible control feels nostalgic.”
– hahahahaha
– for real hahahahaha
– The controls really s*ck hahahahaha
Since it’s been a while, I followed the tutorial slowly to get to pace.
“One-handed sword and shield should be enough, right?”
I picked the standard weapons for this game’s rules and donned a set of iron armor.
– Wow!
– This is it!
– Ah…! This is Shadow Soul!
As I proceeded through the tutorial, I came up against the tutorial boss.
[The Abyss Guardian ‘Darkon’]
Boom!
A giant wielding an axe the size of a human shape rushed towards me, stomping on the ground.
Timing the moment of his rightward large swing, I parried with the shield in my left hand.
Thunk!
I heard a heavy thud sound signaling a successful parry, and dove into the now staggered Darkon’s arms, plunging my sword into his chest.
Thud!
“Now, I just need to parry three more times, and he’ll d*e.”
Glancing at his health bar, it showed about 30% damage done.
As I pulled my sword out, I looked at the chat.
– ??????
– How is this possible????
– I followed along since it was so easy and then died, you j*rk
Deleted message.
Hmm… Are they going a bit overboard just trying to hype me up?
