Now That I Have Become a Woman, I Am a Vtuber - Chapter 159

Minecraft.

A game so popular it had once swept across the entire nation.

It needed no explanation—everyone knew it. Even if they didn’t, it was simple enough that no explanation was necessary.

And I was no exception.

How many hours had I spent playing this as a kid?

Even in middle and high school, I occasionally played with friends.

So, I wasn’t rusty or anything.

Sure, the game had been updated a lot, but the basics were still the same.

[Alright, let’s split up!]

Once teams were set, everyone scattered into the wild.

“Time to gather wood, right?”

[Let’s go chop some trees!]

Seo Eunha, my assigned partner, seemed familiar with Minecraft as well.

We were on Discord voice chat.

Obviously, we needed constant communication. If we relied only on proximity chat, we’d lose contact the moment we split up.

“Hurry up.”

– Do you even know how to play?
– Make an axe first, it’s faster.
– Want some tips?

“I’m a pro, don’t backseat.”

That wasn’t a lie.

I’d even beaten the Ender Dragon before.

Without hesitation, I chopped three logs and crafted a workbench.

“I’m a veteran, so I don’t waste time punching trees with my fists.”

I immediately made a wooden axe.

“Ta-da.”

– Damn, okay.
– The efficiency…
– Pro-level moves.

Who in their right mind still punched trees by hand?

I turned to see Seo Eunha struggling with a log.

[Whoa, you already made an axe?]

I swung.

Thud!

[Agh!]

Her character took damage and stumbled back.

[S-Senpai…?]

– ???
– LOL
– Weren’t we supposed to be gathering wood?
– Why are you gathering people?

I waited a moment.

Then swung again.

Thud!

[Ahh!]

Seo Eunha finally realized what was happening and took off running.

But—

Jump. Thud!

[KYAAAH!!]

A final blow mid-air.

[seoeunha314 was slain by miro1004.]

Her character exploded into pixelated loot.

“Alright, now that I have wood, let’s go mining.”

[S-Senpai…?]

– Are you stupid? She’s your teammate.
– Why are you like this?
– Actual team kill moment.

“Oh.”

Right. Teams.

Well—

“Item sharing! What a strategic thinker you are, Eunha.”

[H-huh?!]

– ??
– Sharing what?

[Donation: 5,000 won]
“Holding a grudge just because she kicked you from her stream, huh?”

“Hey—come on now, it’s not like that.”

I wasn’t being petty.

I was just optimizing our start.

I’d mine the iron for us.

Maybe even diamonds.

“Alright, time to gather stone. Where are you?”

[Uh… respawn point…]

“Okay, I’ll mine while you make your way over.”

[O-okay, wait a sec.]

I started mining stone, and soon enough, I spotted Seo Eunha running toward me.

A little slow, but alright.

“Why so late? I already got a bunch of stone. Here—”

[S-sorry!]

Thud!

I took damage.

“Huh?”

Did she just…?

Seo Eunha was holding a wooden sword.

Oh.

I pulled out my axe.

I wasn’t mad.

I had it coming.

Revenge was only natural.

But—

“Come at me.”

I wasn’t going down easy.

A senpai had to maintain their dignity.

---

Meanwhile, Anna was feeling sentimental.

[H-hello…]

“Nice to meet you!”

Her long-awaited collab with a junior had finally begun.

For so long, she had wanted to talk to them.

Unlike Miro, who could bulldoze through any social barrier, Anna didn’t have the same confidence.

So this collab was a big deal.

[Please, speak comfortably…!]

“Oh, really? I mean—okay!”

– So wholesome.
– This is nice.
– Her junior is so cute.

Just from this short interaction, Anna already adored her junior.

A soft voice, a kind personality.

Completely her type.

“Let’s build a great house!”

[Yes!]

“Any ideas?”

[Um… maybe a garden? With lots of flowers?]

A garden? Nice. But why stop there? They’d build a whole mansion.

“Oh… do you like flowers?”

[Yes! My character even has them in her hair.]

“I saw! It’s so pretty!”

[Thank you.]

Anna felt like she was going to cry from happiness.

As she peacefully chopped trees with her junior,

[seoeunha314 was slain by miro1004.]

A message popped up in the chat.

[Huh?]

Her junior sounded confused.

Anna glanced at the chat log.

Miro had killed Seo Eunha.

Anna sighed.

It was expected.

“What did Miro do this time?”

[I-it’s okay, right?]

“Yeah. It’s Miro, after all.”

[Oh…]

Gaeun immediately accepted the reasoning.

Anna felt a little jealous.

Miro had built such a strong image.

If Anna pulled the same stunt, people would think something was wrong with her.

Miro? She could do anything.

It was kind of impressive.

“She’ll take care of her, don’t worry.”

[Oh… okay.]

“She’s actually nice.”

She meant it.

Miro looked cold, but she was a good person.

Maybe a bit of a chaotic cat, but still.

[seoeunha314 was slain by miro1004.]

Again?

Anna chuckled.

Miro was a bit much sometimes.

But she turned back to gathering resources.

She and Gaeun were peacefully chatting, collecting food, mining stone.

Then—

[miro1004 was slain by seoeunha314.]

[Huh?]

Anna blinked.

Seo Eunha… killed Miro?

Now that was unusual.

Was it revenge?

Props to her.

Anna herself would have just waved a white flag.

Miro wasn’t unreasonable.

Surely, this meant it was over—

[seoeunha314 was slain by miro1004.]

Miro killed her again.

Well, okay.

That should be the end of it now.

Anna turned back to crafting a stone pickaxe.

[seoeunha314 was slain by miro1004.]

…Again? That was a little fast.

[miro1004 was slain by seoeunha314.]

“Ha.”

So it wasn’t over.

They were just… fighting.

Maybe it was a bonding exercise?

A way to build friendship?

Sure. That had to be it.

Anna tried to focus on her house.

[seoeunha314 was slain by miro1004.]
[miro1004 was slain by seoeunha314.]
[seoeunha314 was slain by miro1004.]
[miro1004 was slain by seoeunha314.]

…Okay.

This was getting ridiculous.

“Don’t mind them.”

[A-are you sure?]

Anna nodded firmly.

“They’re just playing around.”

Right.

This wasn’t a disaster.

They were bonding.

Miro and Eunha had just… really hit it off.

[seoeunha314 was slain by miro1004.]
[miro1004 was slain by seoeunha314.]
[seoeunha314 was slain by miro1004.]
[miro1004 was slain by seoeunha314.]

Anna turned and quietly walked into a cave.

Not to mine.

But to escape.
