A Basement-Dwelling Loser, the Inquisitor – Chapter 241

[Let’s talk (It’s important!)]

[Talk | 9544 viewers | 00:00:21]

─Rene, what were you thinking during that broadcast earlier???

─I’m sorry, for real, LOL, I’m sorry, for real, LOL, I’m sorry, for real, LOL

─Stop the dumb power struggle… stop the dumb power struggle… stop the dumb power struggle…

─What’s the important talk? Is it related to that broadcast earlier?

─The chat window is going wild

─What are those so-called managers even doing? (no idea)

─Anyway, once everyone sees the mama-tong, I’m sure they’ll all calm down, LOL

─That could actually be an apology for that broadcast earlier, for real

About two hours later, the broadcast was back on.

In no time, a lot more Rebongi than usual flooded in, starting to spam the chat window.

I’m not sure why, but judging by the atmosphere, it seems like that apology broadcast from two hours ago was the problem.

Usually, right after I start streaming, I’d have about 7,000 viewers.

That said, if they’re talking about power struggles, I might have messed something up again?

Or, maybe like Tuni said earlier, since I apologized, people are just coming at me even harder?

I still can’t figure it out.

“Is it okay to start slowly…?”

“Yes. I don’t even want to see this kind of chat anymore.”

At Tuni’s words, I nodded and unmuted the microphone.

“Hello, everyone….”

─Why isn’t the camera on? Why isn’t the camera on? Why isn’t the camera on? Why isn’t the camera on? Why isn’t the camera on? Why isn’t the camera on?

─Starting off right into a power struggle, huh, Tenny, LOL

─So this is what you meant by spamming, right? You know I’m agreeing, right, you crazy girl???

─What the hell are those manager freaks doing, damn it

─For real, it’s a bit much today

─Because of that so-called apology broadcast, it looks like Rebongi is super riled up, LOL

“Ah, I’m planning to turn the camera on a bit later, so please wait a moment…. For now, I’ll start with the important talk…”

─Are you really going to spout the same nonsense after earlier? Hehe;

─Skip the nonsense and just turn it on

Seems like there was definitely something wrong earlier in the apology broadcast.

“Um, I’m not sure why, but I’m sorry if that apology broadcast upset you… But first, I’ll go into the important talk…”

─Oh, here we go with the ‘important talk’ bullshit, LOL

─For real, just turn it on instead of babbling

So it was definitely tied to something in the earlier apology broadcast.

“Uh, you remember how I wanted to add some rules to the chat window in the last broadcast…?”

─Oh, you mean the ‘no power struggles’ thing? LOL

─Here we go again… here we go again… here we go again… here we go again… here we go again…

“This time, I really want to set it straight…”

─For real? Are you actually going to do it properly this time without a disaster???

─Please, for real, just do it, Rene. Sometimes looking at the chat is just too cringy

─Are you really trying to kill this free atmosphere?! Damn it???

─Why do I even watch your broadcast if I can’t type like this? (genuinely no idea)

The chat window was being flooded at an insane speed.

I silently watched it and thought.

Is this really the right way?

It seems like all the Rebongi who like me and the vibe of my broadcast are completely against it…

As I was lost in thought, Tuni gave my shoulder a gentle tap, and when I turned to look, Tuni just tilted her head slightly.

This was the gesture we predetermined to show that she would step in as well.

I quietly nodded.

“Ah, hello, everyone?”

─?? Who is this?

─It’s Tuni

─Tuh, LOL

─What’s this? Is she with you?

“Yes. Hello everyone, I’m Tuni. I’m currently with Rene.”

─Were you beside her during that so-called apology broadcast too?

─Tuni, please, help stop this power struggle from Tenny…

─What does it feel like to watch her power struggle from the side?

“Ah, yes. I was beside her during the apology broadcast. Rene’s power struggle? Well, technically, a power struggle is kind of content for broadcasts, but if it gets too intense, it can be a bit uncomfortable, you know?”

─Wow, what a straight talk, Tuni, LOL

─So just admit it already, you beast!

─That’s why she did the apology broadcast, duh;

─Is that even an apology broadcast? It was just a power struggle, LOL

“But if you’re going to talk about all this, shouldn’t we change the chat window first?”

─?

─What? Aren’t Rebongi supposed to be on our side???

─I believed in you, I believed in you, I believed in you, I believed in you, I believed in you, I believed in you

─Please, help me. Lately, just looking at the chat makes me feel sick

─Were you just here to support that beast?!

─Is it because you’re both women? You seem to absolutely relate to that nonsensical beast talk, huh; [Message Deleted]

“This one can step out for a moment… Everyone, Rene’s been through the earlier apology broadcast and also this, I’m the one who asked her to talk about this. Honestly, I didn’t really get the earlier one either… but still, I’m starting this conversation.”

─It feels a bit off to have some outsider meddling, LOL

─Rene, did we piss you off or something? Why are you throwing this nonsense if you’re mad at Tuni???

─For real, something feels a bit off right now…

─This broadcast feels like it’s looking down on the viewers, LOL

“Yes, that’s true, I admit it. Meddling in someone else’s broadcast doesn’t come off great either, but I felt like I couldn’t just sit still. Everyone, when you put your hand on your heart, do you really think the atmosphere of Rene’s broadcast chat is normal right now?”

…Is this truly how my broadcast should go?

I was thinking about this as I listened to Tuni’s words.

─No, no, no, please, let’s set some rules, really, there are just too many disgusting people

─Straight talk) I support Tuni

─For real, I’d like it if the spamming and the dirty jokes would stop

─These idiots keep spamming so much that no matter how consistently I say it, it still gets buried, T.T.T.T.T.

─There are truly disgusting people you can see here

─What? Did the moral squad suddenly take over, LOL [Message Deleted]

─Did you hire someone to moderate the chat?

But suddenly, the public opinion in the chat turned upside down.

And most of those messages… were from Rebongi who had been watching my broadcast since the beginning.

I felt like I was seeing a ton of names I hadn’t seen in ages.

─Honestly, having clueless newcomers dictate the broadcast vibe really felt disgusting, hehe;

─For real, the role of old Rebongi = healing while getting irritated by the main chick’s crazy antics, but at some point, it flipped upside down

Then there were my very first fixed viewers.

Lainel and Moriarty.

The two were also siding with Tuni’s argument.

Even those two, who had often joked around at my expense until recently, were now saying such things.

I began to feel a bit of a crack form in my initial thoughts when I felt that this was how it needed to go.

“Am I right, Rene? I feel like a lot of people think this way.”

“Uh, yeah…”

─Looks like a setup with the secretly cursed girls, LOL

─Yeah, this is how it’s supposed to be on this broadcast, LOL

─Another set of newcomers is just going crazy, huh

─So aren’t they newcomers? Among those going wild, is there even someone who has been there when Albion challenged for the head of the chat?

─Is it starting to become a named thing? You vile little child, LOL

─For real, the original squad of 15 Guardians looks lowly now to the newcomers?;

“Oh no, please… don’t fight…”

Suddenly, fights breaking out in the chat window.

“Are you guys for real!”

“Eh?!”

Bam!

As I tried to intervene, Tuni slammed her hand down on the desk and spoke.

“Seriously, those of you swearing. Do you really, really think that this kind of chat atmosphere is acceptable? Is it really how you think?”

─If not, then what?

“How can you say that? How can you think that it’s normal to type that kind of chat to a girl who’s just in her early twenties?!”

─I don’t know why you’re fussing about someone else’s chat culture, heh;

“What do you mean ‘who am I?’” Tuni said.

“I’m Rene’s friend. I’m an older sister figure. I’m the one who taught Rene about internet broadcasting. And I’m the first Rebongi who became a fixed viewer of Rene’s, before anyone else.”

Tuni continued.

“So, I won’t just sit by and watch. Even if all 10,852 viewers here oppose it, I’m going to make changes.”

As Tuni said this, she was crying.
