Chapter 8

For the Record, That Sound Just Now Came From My Thigh

9 min read2,007 words

["Yes, hello, Lady Seongnyeo Nice?"]

[Seongnyeo Nice: Yes, hello.]

-Seongna-nim has arrived, trembling

-Tell me how to land Puga properly

-How the hell do you rotate buffs??

-Isn't filling holy power hard with a one-handed sword?

Perhaps because follow restrictions were on, the broadcast chat window was in a fairly clean state.

Maybe it was because everyone had seen my one-handed sword saintess's performance a few days ago.

Of course, the Iaseu Gallery was the exact opposite situation.

[Title: Wow, crawling out here shameless as fuck lol]

[Title: You said you quit, so why are you here?? Seriously curious]

[Title: Now the fucking F2P bitch is crawling onto broadcasts ;; Iaseu is ruined, just]

The sight of them pouring out insults, saying an F2P like me was appearing on a broadcast.

If it were the old me, I would have been hurt by such words, but now, I didn't feel much of anything.

Because I now knew well that being swayed by such reactions was exactly what they wanted.

Then suddenly, the title of a post I'd seen today came to mind.

[The voice of Seongna, this son of a bitch, is already predictable lol]

The title of the post mocking me, saying my voice was predictable.

How would the author of that post react upon hearing my voice, indeed?

Not just that person alone, but how would the Iaseu Gallery over there, cursing me out, react?

They'd probably be greatly confused.

If someone called me an F2P, I would answer that I am not an F2P.

If someone called me malicious, I would answer that I am not malicious.

But if someone called me a troll bug, I didn't have the confidence to refute those words.

Ever since childhood, seeing a neatly organized desk made me want to mess it up wildly.

Seeing books properly arranged on a shelf, I would want to stick one book in backward for no reason.

Before the dominoes were completed, I would want to knock over the middle and ruin everything.

I wanted to change things in a perfectly complete state into an unstable, incomplete state.

If that was defined as trolling, then I was an undeniable, definite troll.

Now, what kind of person must the user 'Seongnyeo Nice' look like in these people's eyes?

No matter how positively I thought about it, wouldn't they be someone with an unlikable impression?

Having monopolized every single unlikable factor one could receive in a community—F2P, trolling, trolling, maliciousness—they might conjure the worst possible impression.

In reality, my original appearance had matched that expectation to some degree.

But what do you know?

Heaven went and changed my body, didn't it?

From a male possessing all sorts of unlikable appearances, to a beauty that anyone would turn to look at at least once.

I lost my military savings and my third leg in exchange, but in the current situation, it didn't particularly feel like a loss.

Guess I need to crunch the numbers again.

Just the fact that I went from a beast to a beauty meant one more thing to troll about.

Now, back to the main point: how would these people react if they heard my voice now?

The moment they found out that a malicious user causing havoc in an extremely male-dominated community was actually a girl, great chaos would probably unfold.

And trolling was not so different from chaos.

After a moment of deliberation, I clicked the mic button on the Discord window and unmuted.

"Hello."

["Yes, Seongna-nim.. huh? Huh??"]

"I'm Seongna, raising a saintess character."

It was quite an impromptu choice even for me, but as expected...

The result was beyond expectations.

-????

-What the hell

-What's with that voice??

-It was a girl??

Wait, hold on, a girl?

The chat window spamming hooks nonstop, repeating only "was it a girl?" like parrots.

["No, wait... I mean, that's... huh? No, wait a sec..."]

Brother Edeo, showing a reaction as if his thoughts had stopped, making his years of experience amount to nothing.

[Title: [Breaking] Seongna is a girl???]

[Title: Shock) Seongnyeo Nice = a girl lololololol]

[Title: That psycho who spammed cringe pics on the gallery when bored was actually a girl with an insane voice? No fucking way]

The Iaseu Gallery users, having completely forgotten about pouring out every insult except flat jokes just moments ago, focused solely on the fact that I was a girl.

"Pfft..."

Their flustered appearances at this unexpected development were pure comedy to me.

"Kkhuhu... kkheuh..."

Ah, this is fun.

-Damn, what's with that laugh???

-Edeo, what's your relationship with Seongna?

-Noona, I'm dying noona, I'm dying noona, I'm dying

-Edeo, turn up the voice volume, fuck

As expected, trolling is fun.

[Userㅇㅇ has donated 1,000 won!]

[Edeo, what are you doing, hurry up and turn up Seongna-nim's voice, I can't hear it well, ffs]

-Agreed

-Edeo, if you have sense, turn up the volume

-But seriously, the voice is fucking good

-Please laugh once more noona please laugh once more noona please just once more noona

The chat fills up in an instant, and the viewer count jumps like crazy.

All of this was what Edeo, who had planned this stream, had wanted, but Edeo himself was in a state of brain freeze.

"Uh, huh? So... huh?"

-But why's he like this?

-Why's this guy stunned?

-Edeo, get a grip and turn up Seongna's voice

-No but really, Seongna is a girl??

A collaboration with Seongnyeo Nice, evaluated as a malicious user in most communities.

Edeo, who had decided to drink from a poisoned chalice, had been prepared for most sudden situations.

As a result, Edeo had been confident he wouldn't be flustered by any variable, but now he realized that had been an arrogant judgment.

'No way... she was a girl?'

No, it was largely because he hadn't considered such a variable from the start.

Before today's stream, Edeo had exchanged some casual personal conversation with Seongna for a smoother broadcast.

[Edeo: You said you were discharged recently, right? Then which unit did you serve in?]

One of those was the story of Seongna's military days, having returned after recent discharge.

At the time, he had brought it up without hesitation because he believed Seongna was a man.

When two or more males gather, it is a biological instinct to bring up military stories.

[Seongnyeo Nice: Me? I'm from the 6th Division.]

[Edeo: Oh, Cheorwon?]

[Edeo: Isn't that the front lines? That's rough. I was from Baekgol.]

[Seongnyeo Nice: I was a headquarters admin soldier, so it wasn't exactly the front lines.]

[Edeo: Wow, admin soldier? You really had it sweet.]

[Seongnyeo Nice: Being an admin soldier is n-not sweet at all.]

[Seongnyeo Nice: It's really h-hard, some places are incredibly hard.]

[Seongnyeo Nice: They said there was no one, so I pulled a ton of duty shifts in my last year, okay?]

[Edeo: I was joking, joking.]

And, it's another biological instinct of men to get touchy when the unit they served in is called a cushy gig.

So Edeo had naturally been convinced Seongna was a man. That belief had been thoroughly betrayed right now, however.

["Mr. Edeo? Are you okay?"]

A beautiful voice that tickled and seeped into the ears.

Judging appearance by voice alone would be premature, but at least he didn't think the owner of this voice could have an ugly appearance.

Rather, because he didn't know her face, Seongna's voice had the effect of making him look forward to her appearance even more.

'Get a grip, you idiot Edeo...!'

To think he'd space out at a few words in a woman's voice when he was quite old.

Slap!

Edeo barely composed himself by slapping his thigh.

-What's he doing? lol

-Sudden thigh clapping lol

-Is he an M?

He was met with ridicule from viewers for his sudden antics, but the viewers' mockery was unimportant.

Because Edeo had something he absolutely needed to check.

"U-um, Seongna-nim..."

["Yes."]

-Woooo!

-Turn up the voice volume, Edeo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-Soft voice is so good

-Noona, please do ASMR just once

The first words Edeo uttered after coming to his senses were—

"A-are you... a military service veteran?"

It was quite unexpected.

[Edeo, did you hit your head or something?]

Was the fact that I was a girl that shocking?

Brother Edeo had completely forgotten about hosting the stream, repeating strange words.

["Ah, ah, I'm sorry. Why am I like this..."]

Well, I was content to just eat my ramen until he came to his senses.

-Slurp...

-What's this sound?

-Sounds like eating something

-Isn't that the sound of slurping noodles?

Hmm... the mic picks up even this much.

I should be careful.

["Um... Seongna-nim."]

"Yeees."

["I know this is a really stupid question, but are you... a woman?"]

Hmm... asking if I'm a girl.

When I lowered my gaze, two substantial lumps came into view.

Lumps that were neither big nor small. But what I could say for sure was that whoever bore them couldn't be a man.

"I am, right?"

["Why...?"]

"Mmm... Is that some kind of offensive joke, asking why I was born a girl?"

["No, that's not it... I... ah, I'm sorry."]

-Edeo can't get a grip lololololol

-Edeo, you'll end the stream abruptly and get beaten by the missus

-Madam, Edeo can't keep it together in front of a girl, you know?

Hmm.

I wanted to quickly preach the greatness of the one-handed sword saintess.

Does this guy have no intention of hosting the stream?

[Userㅇㅇ has donated 1,000 won!]

[Everyone drooling over just the voice is fucking hilarious lol. Voice changers are so good these days.]

The moment I wondered if I should step in, a single donation arriving at the perfect timing changed the atmosphere.

The question everyone had thought of in their heads but couldn't bring themselves to say out loud.

It was how to believe that I was really a girl.

-Is that so?

-Huh?

-For real, voice changer performance is insane these days

-I've used one too, and seriously, you can't tell at all

-N- how would Namgung-hyung..

-No no, you fucking catfish bitch

When humans face a fact they absolutely cannot accept, they pour all their strength into denying that fact.

It is a defensive thought process that erases unacceptable events from reality to protect oneself.

Just like these people.

"Voice changer, how do we believe you're a girl, hmm... that's a good question."

Of course, the opposite is also true: the moment truth is proven, that thought process shatters to pieces.

"How can I prove that I'm a girl?"

[Userㅇㅇ has donated 1,000 won!]

[If you clap while talking with a voice changer app on, the sound glitches. Verify with this ggg]

Hmm... clap while talking?

"That's easy."

Come to think of it, Brother Edeo was clapping his thighs earlier.

...Should I try too?

Slap!

"Ah—"

Slap!

"Ow."

Did I hit a bit too hard?

Well, this should be proof enough.

"See, the sound didn't glitch, right?"

-True that

-It didn't glitch at all?

-The sound quality is kinda shitty, but it's not a glitching sound

The chat's doubts about my gender had completely disappeared.

It was a bit of a shame that it was resolved so cleanly, leaving nothing to troll about.

["I-I see... Now that we've confirmed Seongna-nim is a woman... let's proceed with the stream..."]

Brother Edeo, whether finally coming to his senses, began hosting the stream.

"Ah, right."

I should collect the trolling bait I'd scattered beforehand.

"For your reference, that sound just now came from my thigh."

["...Huh?"]

Slap!

"I did it like this, and you can hear it well, right?"

It was the moment Edeo's mind, which had been coming back to reality, got stunned once again.

-OMG OMG OMG

-Noona, are you really crazy?

-Woooo! Woooo!

-I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead I'm dead

-Edeo, turn the volume up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Everyone likes it too much.

...Should I slap it one more time?
