Chapter 106
[25,000 Viewers]
For a broadcast turned on after a two-day break, it brought an incredibly successful turnout.
Maybe it came out like this because they thought it was the last stream.
“Yes? Oh, today I just turned it on casually. I’m planning a calm broadcast just chatting.”
He didn’t intend to go long; the goal was just to hang out with people.
It wasn’t like he hadn’t played when gaming, but still, there needed to be days to unwind like this.
-Is it right to do this after a two-day break
Even after a two-day break.
-Aren’t you going to join Hyeopwi anymore? Aren’t you going to join Hyeopwi anymore? Aren’t you going to join Hyeopwi anymore?
-You promised to be the Cult Leader. You promised to be the Cult Leader. You promised to be the Cult Leader. You promised to be the Cult Leader.
-Just come back…… It really feels like we’ve been abandoned.
-Our Hyeopwi is good. They don’t bite.
The chat window was uniformly chaotic.
[‘Haeseok’ has donated 100,000 won!]
[Turned it on to collect money, you bastards. Stop whining and quickly toss in donations.]
Donations were the same.
Though two million won had popped off a bit ago, it wasn’t turned on to collect money.
“Thank you for the donation.”
That was that, and being thankful was a separate matter.
Leaning comfortably against his chair, Seojun spent time reading the chat window and donations.
In the meantime, it seemed a lot of fun things had happened in For Hyeopwi.
First.
[‘ㅇㅇ’ has donated 30,000 won!]
[Is it true that not a single ranker switched to the Demon Sect? lololololol]
-A setting sun, that’s what it is
-Who’s going to go to a crumbling house just because one lucky shot popped off? lololololololololol
-Only the streamer is left ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
-3rd place suits the Demon Sect perfectly
This kind of unfortunate but expected news arrived.
[‘Dangso Faction Switch Declaration’ has donated 40,000 won!]
[???: Thanks to me, the Heretic Faction and Demon Sect could win on the battlefield. Now there seems to be only one faction left to receive my help! So now I’m going to take on a new challenge!]
-lololololololololololololololololololololol
-A true god of hit-and-run
-Weren’t you in the Demon Sect because you lost a bet? Why are you talking like you carried? lolololololol
-Selling at the peak and running lololol
Ridiculous news also arrived.
That guy probably left for somewhere else because he judged the Demon Sect had no hope once he figured Seojun wouldn’t come out for at least the next battlefield.
As expected of him. He talks weirdly but accurately assesses the situation.
[‘There Was No 1st Place Competition Though’ has donated 30,000 won!]
[This battlefield was fun, admit?]
-Admit it
-Looks like only the Demon Sect was like that?
-The Orthodox Faction wasn’t fun.
“Ah. There was a 1st place competition too.”
Originally, the 1st place competition was supposed to be an element that drew as much attention as which faction would win, but it ended without receiving any attention because Seojun piled up fame so overwhelmingly.
[‘Reason the Demon Sect Can’t Help But Go Crazy’ has donated 20,000 won!]
[It’s over 3,500km from the Demon Sect to roughly the center of the Central Plains lolololololololol These bastards aren’t going crazy for nothing. What evil demonic arts. That distance is more evil]
Oh.
Come to think of it, that’s true.
Seojun clapped.
“It wasn’t the law of the jungle for nothing. It must take strong stamina just to get to the Central Plains.”
He’d discovered an important secret of the Heavenly Demon Church.
-What kind of fights have you been through, Demon Sect hyungs ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
-Just to launch one invasion, you have to travel from Seoul to Busan over 8 times lolololololololololol
-No, we won the battlefield, so why do you keep teasing us? It’s annoying
-Because it’s the Demon Sect!
The viewers communicated by sharing posts from the community and asking Seojun questions.
He’d done it lightly before starting as well, but doing it properly like this was even more fun.
“Alright. Then from tomorrow, I’ll come with a different game.”
-Are we…… just getting the sweet part sucked out and being abandoned? Still, it’s fine. Since we won……
-ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
-Still, since the battlefield is over, those who will keep watching the streamer’s broadcasts, upvote lololololol
-Okay
-Okay
-Fine. Nothing to see anyway
Reading the chat with an excellent mindset, Seojun spoke.
“You know what kind of broadcast I’m doing tomorrow, right?”
The notice was already up.
That he’d be doing a collab with Taeu tomorrow.
Taeu doesn’t play For Hyeopwi.
It’s not because he dislikes the concept…… it’s just that it’s complicated and the entry barrier is too high.
So the viewers might not know, but still, most people who come to Seojun’s broadcasts like this also check I-Tube.
In other words.
-Classmate fellow streamer collab? This is unmissable lolololololololol
-Get ready to open up each other’s dark histories
-How are two friends living together both streamers? lolololololol Looks like there’ll be tons of fun
-Taeu’s a pretty big streamer too
-Homework broadcast ㅊㅊㅊ
The reaction seemed good, so that was a relief.
Just because it’s called a homework broadcast doesn’t mean you should handle it like homework.
Ads make up a big part of a streamer’s income.
The previous ad for Movie Soft was for justification purposes, so this could essentially be considered his first proper ad.
“Then, see you tomorrow.”
Just do well like usual.
The advertiser probably proposed the ad after seeing that side of him.
Judging from the meeting, they seemed to regret it a lot.
Anyway, just like usual.
* * *
Having finished his broadcast, Seojun didn’t emerge from the capsule.
Since he hadn’t entered it at all, just getting up from the chair was the end of it.
Taking a sniff, Seojun smiled faintly.
A delicious smell wafted from the living room.
Ha.
Late-night snack after the stream ends.
“This is crazy.”
Could this be what life is?
Experiencing a new happiness he hadn’t felt in his previous life, Seojun stepped out of the room with a solemn expression.
On the living room table, delivered chicken sat conspicuously.
It feels like we keep eating chicken every time, but it’s actually even better.
Seojun solemnly set out cups, opened the fridge to take out cola, and prepared the utensils.
“Seems like he’s still streaming.”
Taeu seemed to have received the food, placed it on the table, and gone back in to stream.
“Should I watch his stream?”
Seojun turned on Travel on his phone and entered Taeu’s stream.
[I’m telling you, no!]
As soon as he entered, Taeu was shouting.
Realizing that the soundproof booth was incredibly effective since it didn’t leak into the living room, Seojun seriously pondered whether he also needed one.
Anyway, what was he saying no to?
[No, everyone. I’m still Master tier. Master. Don’t you know it’s top 0.1%?]
-(Former) Why didn’t you attach it?
-Going on about it just because you lasted a day lolololololololol
-How long will you brag to us!
-Master appeal lolololol
Having suddenly entered, it was hard to grasp the context, but Seojun caught on from Taeu’s subsequent words.
[Burden? Tomorrow, I’ll carry. Just watch. I’m a talent freak too, you know?]
Since he said tomorrow, it was clearly about the collab.
Seojun immediately lifted his phone and moved his fingers.
-?
His chat, as a channel VIP, was shining with various effects.
It’s especially noticeable.
-Hi, Seo
-Hi, Seo
-You came right after ending the stream, and now the streamer’s here too
-Hi, Seo
Everyone except the channel master welcomed him.
[What’s that question mark? Huh? Say it quickly. What does it mean.]
-lololololololololol
-Other people also sent question marks, you know?
-How absurd was it that you said you’d carry that the person himself showed up? lolololol
[If you don’t speak quickly, I’m coming out to the living room? Huh? Just. In real life, you’re not even a jab.]
Taeu throws a jab at the camera.
Seojun scoffed and moved his fingers again.
-ㅋ
[Huh? Wow, you scared? Everyone, I can’t do this. I need to discipline him now, so I’ll end the stream.]
Alright, just come out quickly.
Seojun tore open the chicken packaging.
Soon, the door opened and Taeu came out.
“Hey!”
“What.”
Taeu coming out of the room and Seojun sitting at the table locked eyes.
“Nicely done.”
Just as expected.
Instead of a jab, Taeu gave a thumbs-up.
“Thanks to you, I caught the perfect moment to end the stream.”
“Really?”
“Even if not, the food gets cold and tasteless. You appearing at the perfect time to give me a hint, as expected, you really have a natural talent for broadcasting.”
Taeu sat down and poured cola into a cup.
“I see.”
So that could be seen as hinting to end.
“I’m telling you.”
And he started chugging it down.
Wearing an expression saying ‘Try something else,’ Seojun spoke.
“So when is this discipline happening?”
“Cough. Gack.”
“Luckily you didn’t spill it.”
“Gack. No, what discipline? We’re friends.”
“You said we weren’t friends.”
“When on earth did I!”
“Before, when I said I’d follow that amazing method you told me about taking a break on the last day of the battlefield and you said we weren’t friends.”
Taeu rolled his eyes as if he didn’t remember such a thing.
Seojun wasn’t the petty or grudge-holding type.
However, Seojun was someone who would even edit in nonexistent memories to make a situation favorable to himself.
If Seojun can recreate memories that didn’t exist, it’s only natural that existing memories would be summoned immediately.
“Ahem. How can we not be friends? Huh? Just think about our school days. How much bread I bought for you.”
“That’s true.”
“Isn’t that a typical proof of friendship among friends?”
A correctly established friendship indeed.
Mm-hmm.
Seojun nodded and grabbed some chicken.
“I always order the late-night snack around when the broadcast ends, and! When the delivery comes, even if I’m still streaming, I go out to receive it, and! Huh? Huh?”
Taeu seemed to realize his situation while passionately speaking.
He shouldn’t have realized.
Seojun quickly answered.
“Yeah. Thanks.”
“Right? I don’t need to go to the gym tomorrow and get up on a ring or anything, right? Right? Seojun? Friends can’t fight, right?”
“I’ll think about it.”
“Hmm.”
“What are you thinking about?”
“Thinking about going to my family home and sleeping? No way you’re coming to my place tomorrow morning to wake me up, right.”
After that.
The two chuckled.
“By the way, what were you talking about with the viewers earlier on your broadcast?”
“The collab?”
“Yeah.”
“Oh, that. They kept provoking me, saying I’d drag you down tomorrow, so I fired back a bit.”
“Really? But isn’t that true?”
“What.”
“Isn’t it literally a drag if you can’t properly support me?”
“Hey!”
“What.”
“I told you you’re the one supporting me!”
“That’s meaningless, you know.”
“Anyway, you do it!”
It was truly fortunate that Park Hyeoksu had no idea they still hadn’t decided on their roles.
