“I had something that I really had to do recently… um. So I had to take a break, you know?”

─Is this guy enjoying it on purpose?

─Did you just find that out now?

─What’s with breaking someone’s head for nonsense…

“Fortunately, I finished that thing yesterday, so I was able to come back earlier than expected…”

─Something you have to do) Preparing for VTuber event

─I really don’t get how preparing for a VTuber event relates to this guy needing a break.

─Surprisingly, only one guy in this stream knows that.

─I don’t know whether to thank you for turning on the stream or to curse you…

“V, V, VTuber? I don’t know what that means at all…”

─Just hide your trembling voice and speak, Tenryun.

─Why does this guy make me angry every time I watch the stream, yet I keep watching?

─There’s a VTuber named Rene who just debuted ^^ you idiot ㅎㅎ

“…Ah. Rene? Actually, I was watching that person’s stream before I came here… it took me by surprise since we have the same name… What a coincidence…”

─Coo?incidence.

─I get surprised every time you stream, Tenryun…

─Wow, you must’ve really been surprised!

“She seemed to have prepared really hard. I think she deserves to succeed. She doesn’t seem to be a heretic…”

─For the fans who are desperate for a fan meeting, that’s a big compliment ㅋㅋ

─How can every word you say be so infuriating?

─Is this guy a split personality?

The Rebongi are trying hard to provoke me, but such low-level provocations won’t work on me. I’ve already decided to treat the Inquisition Officer Rene and VTuber Rene as different beings.

“Ah… Right. During my unavoidable break, strange people kept coming from the New Dimension…”

─??? : Rebongi are strange people.

“…Hmph. Those people aren’t Rebongi…”

─Get a grip, get a grip, get a grip, get a grip, get a grip, get a grip, get a grip.

─Damn, that comment…

“Wait a minute. There wasn’t any chat like ‘Damn, female dog’.”

─Gasp ㅋㅋ

─Why are people peeking into private matters like this… it’s so humiliating…

─Ugh, trash.

─Ugh, apologize!

It’s strange.

I was just sexually harassed, but why does it feel like I’m the one in the wrong here?

No matter how much they think of me as a man…

No, even if I were really a man, isn’t that excessive?

I’m not particularly upset, but it’s absurd…

“…Anyway, since I’ve returned, I’ve been thinking about what I should do, and I thought we could look at the Remagal…”

─Translation) I will now start a public execution.

─Oh no, lol.

─Wait, just five minutes, Rene. I’m sorry, I messed up, and I’ll delete it right away!

─Preparing to sue with a PDF ㅇㅅㅇ

Why do people twist their thoughts like this?

I just thought it would be genuinely fun to watch together…

“Well then, let’s start reading some concept posts from Remagal…”

I said that and pulled up the concept post page on the broadcast screen.

【Title: I’m sorry to the gallery members, but let me write one article】

“Pfft…”

And when I looked at the title of the top concept post, an involuntary laugh escaped me.

─Gasp ㅋㅋ

─Starting off tough, huh? ㅋㅋ

“W-what an idiot, this person? Writing is something you do, not something you do… hehehe…”

─You’re really doing this on purpose, damn.

─Damn, fox-like woman.

─Don’t be fooled, don’t be fooled, don’t be fooled, don’t be fooled, don’t be fooled.

─Mom, my horns have grown stronger…

─Don’t laugh like that, damn, it makes me confused.

─Honestly, it’s possible.

Huh?

For some reason, the chat window is noisy.

Was there a strange chat or something?

…Well, it doesn’t seem like there’s an actual issue, so it’s fine.

“I don’t know what you’re saying, but hehehe. Anyway, I’ll watch this first…”

I said that and clicked on the concept post, and what welcomed me was a long text that didn’t even have proper spacing.

【Title: I’m sorry to the gallery members, but let me write one article】

【Author: ㅇㅇ】

Hi Rene, I liked you the moment I saw your first stream. I wanted to confess before your break, but I was too cowardly at that time. Now in front of this many people, I want to say that I love only you, gathering my courage… Every time I see you on the stream, my heart races, and you’re all I see in the New Dimension and the gallery, and I’ve only thought about you since last November. It hurts so much just to see you go on a break… I’ve been thinking about how to express this in the best way, I want to confess to you in front of everyone. Will you be my girlfriend, Rene? Or will you be my only sun? I’ll be your moon. I’ll be waiting for you in the gallery after the stream. Love you, Rebongi.

ㅇㅇ🔹 : Now who’s going to stream?

Parutabi: Is this Temple Run?

└Araaktta: (Template idiot rectangle)

└Parutabi: (Template idiot rectangle)

ㅇㅇ: What the hell, when was this outdated Gatel-dak meme?

└Remagal: You know that…

It’s good there are no ㅇㅅㅇ here.

─Uh… the post came out with no spacing, so it’s hurting my eyes.

It’s hard to read.

But it’s not unreadable, I guess…

“Umm… there are a few lies in here. No one watched my first stream…”

─Damn, don’t respond seriously!

─Isn’t this guy from the gallery? Why is he reacting to this?

─If every time you talk about heretics and stuff, it could be someone not knowing…

─Why does it sound so sad that no one watched your first stream?

─It’s originally a Gatel-dak meme, you idiots…

─It’s still used a lot, so what’s wrong with that?

“The only chance would be the second stream, which might’ve been seen by the Lainel and Moriarty, right? You two aren’t them, right?”

─Nope, not me.

─Would someone like that write this?

─Call my name too! Call my name too! Call my name too!

─Why am I jealous, damn?

─National heroes ㅇㅇㅇㅇㅇ

“…Anyway, I’m thankful that you like me. I’ll do my best going forward.”

Most of the chat says why respond to this, but I think they’re writing it because they like me, right?

At least, that’s how I see it.

It’s not easy for someone to invest their time for a stranger.

“So now let’s move on to the next concept post.”

【Title: Honestly, Rebongi that are possible are amazing ㅋㅋㅋ】 (12)

【Title: Let’s analyze the actions of the gallery master.jpg】 (11)

【Title: I drew fan art of the gallery master’s avatar】 (22)

【Title: Let’s see the master’s superior moves】 (16)

【Title: I want to receive the master’s superior seeds…】 (13)

【Title: The world’s best streamer.jpg】 (8)

【Title: The world’s worst streamer.jpg】 (19)

【Title: How do I see a guy, you guys? No way!” (18)

【Title: I’m not gay, but I have a crush on the gallery master. (9)

What to do.

There are too many post titles that I hesitate to click on.

─I’m sorry…

─Sorry, Rebongi!

─Please spare me the lawsuit, Rene…

─I’ll delete it right away! Just please forgive me this one time, please!

“…I’m not going to sue. By the way, do you guys write those kind of posts in other streamer’s fan cafes as well?”

─No way.

─Seriously.

─You’ve made my taste this way…

“Then that’s a relief. Just in case, don’t do that in other places. Got it?”

─Rene unnie… Rene unnie… Rene unnie… Rene unnie…

─You keep seducing me first, damn!

─Heuuuuuuuuuuhhh

─I feel like my dirty heart is being purified…

─That’s too cruel, Rene…

─It was just the Rebongi who liked your stream…

─Isn’t a public execution a bit much?

“No, didn’t you all enjoy it?”

After briefly skimming the latest concept posts and chatting with the Rebongi, I felt a strange thrill watching the chat window flood down so quickly.

Is my stream really worth watching for 592 people?

I’m grateful, yet curious.

“Then… today…”

─If you say the broadcast ends here, I seriously won’t take it.

─Don’t test me, Tenryun.

“Hmm…”

Is it normal to say I want to end the broadcast after saying that? Or am I a bad one for feeling that?

But I wasn’t planning on saying that, so isn’t it their fault for provoking me with such words?

To put it in a difficult way, it could be self-defense, right?

─Unnie, you’re not really planning to go, are you? You’re not, right?

─My hands and feet are starting to thaw, Rene… I’m still cold…

“No, you guys… I wasn’t thinking about leaving, but you all made me flustered…”

─You said that, yet you lead into it, damn!

─I just feel like slapping you right now, seriously.

It hurts my heart looking at them trying desperately to insult me.

I’ve told them that they can show me any side of themselves in the gallery, but is that really the right thing?

Isn’t it right for them to accept whatever I display as a streamer?

“Well then… I’m thinking of playing the New Dimension from now on…”

─Hahaha, yes, here comes my YAS.

─What are the popular kids doing? It’s hard out there, but YAS is here.

─Please replay the Albion Hunt, please replay the Albion Hunt, please replay the Albion Hunt.

─Damn it, when will you show the high-tier PVP? It’s suffocating waiting.

“…”

At that one comment, the chat immediately exploded.

I had no idea the New Dimension was this popular of a game.

That said, it seems the Rebongi each have different wishes.

To be precise, they seem to be divided between PVP and Albion Hunt.

Originally, I was going to play a PVP ranked match and aim for an S-rank today, but since it’s a recent content, it’s understandable that there are many Rebongi who want to see the Albion Hunt.

After all, it’s only our party that’s cleared the Albion Hunt so far.

“Hmm…”

A variety of thoughts rushed through my head.

Should I go with what I originally intended?

But would it be wrong to ignore what the Rebongi want…?

PVP is what they want too. More than anything, the proper start of my stream was PVP.

While I was in this dilemma, unable to say anything…

= ‘Chagaeun’ donated 500,000 won.

Hello, Rene. I’m Streamer Chagaeun. I’d like to have a conversation with you, if that’s okay?

A huge donation just came in.
