TS Vtuber Streaming Life - Chapter 57
After finishing my schedule at home, I packed my things to return home.
“Mom, I can’t eat all of this.”
“Eat it.”
“No, I’m not saying I won’t eat it, I’m saying I can’t eat it!”
“Eat it.”
“What if it goes bad?”
“Eat it all before it goes bad.”
Before the regression, since I had lived alone for a long time, she didn’t take care of me much, but now, since it’s been less than a year, she’s gone overboard with her care.
…But at least I won’t have to worry about side dishes for a while.
“Well then, I’ll get going.”
“Be careful of catching a cold.”
“…It’s still autumn, you know?”
“Does that mean you won’t catch a cold in autumn? You can catch one in summer too.”
…I have no counterarguments.
“Fine, I understand… Oh, if you’re curious about my recent activities, watch my broadcast.”
“I’m not going to watch. You’ll manage on your own just fine. I won’t say anything about your life unless you commit a crime. Especially about your private life.”
Well, my mom really is cool. This is why I like her, you know?
“Oh, but hurry up and get yourself a boyfriend. Since you’re in entertainment now, having a celebrity son-in-law would be nice.”
…Anything but that related to dating.

“Ugh…!”
After finishing organizing my things, I stretched.
“Ahh…! It feels good….”
Hmm, should I buy a massage chair next time? Everyone says they’re great…
Since the house has become larger than before I moved, I’m having fun buying furniture one by one.
Well, I’ll think about that later; for now, I need to do my broadcast.
I opened the soundproof booth door and entered, turning on the computer. As the expensive desktop I bought lit up beautifully, the three monitors in front of me also powered on.
“Ahhh…!”
Before regression, I wanted to set this up but couldn’t due to money!
As someone who cannot help being a gamer, I find that my satisfaction with the new house is highest when I look at my soundproof booth environment compared to other things.
Anyway, I quickly started preparing to turn on the broadcast. I’d like to procrastinate a little longer, but since today is the Chuseok special Yutnori broadcast I mentioned before, there’s not much time left, so I need to hurry.
Having finished preparing, I turned on the broadcast.
-Oh please… change the opening song…
-Hahahaha, it’s comfortable once you get used to it.
-Are you still not giving up?
As I played my commute song again as the opening music, complaints surfaced once more.
Hmm… Will it disappear completely in about three months? For now, I didn’t care much since those comments would vanish if my commute song became established as part of my broadcast culture.
After the song ended, I turned on the microphone.
“Aah.”
-Oh
-Oh wow
ㄴDeleted Message.
-Your voice sounds a bit different though?
“Hello.”
-Did you change the settings?
-The sound quality is cleaner.
-Did you buy a new microphone?
“Hmph, how is it? You can definitely feel the difference, right?!”
Mmm! Even I can tell it improved a lot compared to before! Everyone recognized the results of the effort I put into setting things up right before going home, which automatically boosted my energy.
-What’s happening? Hahahaha
-Why so cute today? Hahahahaha
-?
-Anonymous
-Hahahaha, they’re excited because they noticed the change?
-Did you not eat well or something?
“…Please don’t say anything to ruin my mood on purpose.”
Ah, d*mn it. Saying things like that…
-Anon
-Roje is cute.
-Hahaha, I’m serious!
-Roje is indeed cute.
…As expected. In this kind of chat window, the only option is to cover up with a bigger topic, so I quickly turned on my avatar.
“Ta-da.”
-Oh wow
-What is this? Is it a traditional outfit?
-It’s so pretty!
-Hey, is this our meeting outfit?
ㄴDeleted Message.
-You look great in a hanbok.
“I prepared this traditional outfit for Chuseok.”
The topic in the chat switched to my traditional outfit as I planned.
“Shall I share some behind-the-scenes stories about the outfit?”
-What could be behind the scenes about an outfit?
-Ohhh
-Yes.
While it’s not a lot, there is some backstory to making this outfit.
Basically, creating one live 2D avatar outfit costs a lot of money, so while we were at it, the designer from our department made sure it was something that anyone could see was pretty.
Since my avatar has a character with black hair and black eyes with a cold impression, the color tone only suits cool colors, so the designer worked hard on adjusting the colors.
After reviewing, since the draft wasn’t to my taste at all, the designer worked even harder right from the start.
…Why is it that all I have is about how hard the designer worked?
-Hahahahahaha
-Poor designer…
-Drawing artists can’t help it, huh? Hahaha.
-Is it that better quality comes from working harder? How do you put up with it? Hahaha.
Well, since the results are good enough, the designer should be satisfied with it.
“After all, a hanbok looks best on someone with black hair and black eyes, right?”
-For real, haha.
-Your character’s colors are ridiculously biased, haha.
-But for real, it’s true.
-Haha, a hanbok really does suit black hair and black eyes.
I went on to explain the details of the outfit.
“Now, let me share some stories about Chuseok… No, I’ll talk about this later.”
-Why?
-Tell me now!
-I’m getting anxious! If you don’t tell me now, I’ll explode!
ㄴDeleted Message.
Hmm? The reactions are more intense than I expected.
Alright, I should use that.
“I was going to postpone it since it might be a bit long…”
-Is there anything that’ll take long?
-You have that much to say after 3 days?
-I’m so curious!
“Well, I’ll throw out a little spoiler and talk more about it later.”
-Oh nooo!
-Just tell me!
-I’m getting anxious! If you don’t tell me, I’ll explode!
ㄴDeleted Message.
It’s chaos…
“If you’re curious, you can just watch until the collaboration ends. Just hold on for a bit.”
But I have no intention of changing my mind. There’s not much time left until the collaboration anyway, and creating curiosity will attract more attention.
“Hmm… Put simply…”
-What is it?
-I’m getting frustrated, just spill it already, you j*rk!
ㄴDeleted Message.
-You usually are very straightforward, but why are you being so vague now?
“I got caught doing VTuber stuff by my family.”
-???
-Did you not tell them????
-Hahahahahaha
-Lol, for real! Hahahahaha!
-Was it a public execution? Hahahahahaha!
-????????
-Haha, it makes sense that you were worried.
-Lol.
ㄴDeleted Message.
“I’ll only say this much.”
-Argh, you j*rk!
ㄴDeleted Message.
-You should have just not said anything at all.
ㄴDeleted Message.
-What? You’re just leaving it here????
ㄴDeleted Message.
-Hurry up and tell us!!!! If you don’t, I’m going to explode!
ㄴDeleted Message.
“Like I said earlier, if you want to hear more, you can just stay seated until the collaboration ends. It’s simple, right?”
-I guess I was taken hostage, huh? Hahaha.
-That’s why you said you’d spoil us…
-Ow… I have to wake up early tomorrow…
Hmm, looks like it’s working well.
After checking the reaction, I entered Discord.
“Hello.”
[Oh, Roje’s here?]
[Did you arrive?]
“Yes.”
[So, is Wooju unnie the only one who hasn’t come yet?]
Today’s collaboration members are Yerin, Yuna, and Min-seo. There’s no particular reason for it.
The last time I asked who was available today, these three responded first.
As always, first come, first served is the cleanest way.
“It’s courtesy for younger people to arrive first. We should show consideration for the elders.”
[…Did something happen during Chuseok? Your combat power seems to have increased?]
Ah, it seems I haven’t shaken off the way I talked while playing with my aunt.
-Hahahahahaha
-When there’s a 7-year age difference, it’s like night and day, haha.
-Is it really being elder…?
-Oh boy, if 27 is considered elder, I should probably d*e if I’m over 30.
ㄴDeleted Message.
-Increased combat power, haha, that metaphor is spot on, haha.
“Well, nothing special happened. Just that my family found out I’m a VTuber?”
[What?!]
[Um… Is that really not a big deal?]
“Ah, they also found out I dropped out of college.”
[…Huh?]
[What?!]
-Did you not mention dropping out of college?????
-No way, hahahaha.
-You have a lot to hide, don’t you? Hahahaha.
-You should have told me that, you j*rk! Hahahaha!
ㄴDeleted Message.
-You mean you’ve not mentioned it for over six months? Hahaha, you crazy girl.
ㄴDeleted Message.
“If you’re curious about what happened, you can come over to my stream after the collaboration ends.”
-Hahahaha!
-No way, were you promoting? Hahaha!
-I’ve said it before, but you love the buildup, don’t you? Hahahaha!
ㄴDeleted Message.
As we exchanged a little update talk, Min-seo came in.
[Ugh! Sorry for being late! Did you wait a long time?!]
“Um, did you eat a lot during Chuseok?”
[Um… I did eat some, but why?]
“I’m just curious if the changes in your real body weight affect internet speed.”
Ah, that’s not what I was trying to say. As I was about to rephrase, I heard Min-seo getting angry.
[Hey! I didn’t gain that much! I can’t say that, but I really didn’t gain much! Should we meet up? Do you want to check?!]
…For real, my aunt wrecked someone.
I looked at the chat window, resenting my aunt who contributed greatly to my current state.
-What a crazy girl, hahaha.
ㄴDeleted Message.
-She’s really getting worked up, hahaha.
-She’s nitpicking just because it was a little late, hahaha.
-Wow, this is classic quotable material, hahaha.
-I wonder what really happened during Chuseok? Hahahaha!
-Wooju’s reactions are so good, hahahaha.
-You were already good at handling things, but this exceeds all limits! Hahaha.
…Anyway, it’s my aunt’s fault.
