Chapter 66: The Hero’s Streaming Life (Part 2)

Well, I had to stream regardless. I couldn’t just quit because I didn’t like the options.

‘It’s not like it’s impossible.’

I hadn’t used axes much in ‘that world,’ but it wasn’t because I was unskilled with them. On the contrary, I was more proficient with them than most other weapons.

‘I really didn’t use bows or spears.’

I could say I used axes frequently because I owned a decent quality axe in ‘that world.’

“Well, it’s not a big deal.”

So, I could look at the roulette with a smile. Seeing my reaction, the chat went wild.

[Haha, Shihyun can do anything even with an axe]
[Seriously lol]
[Shihyun’s a monster who draws magic circles by hand and uses magic lol]
[For real, I saw that and
myself, had to change my underwear]
[How did she do that lol]

“Using magic isn’t that difficult.”

[ Magic, is that even difficult?]
[What am I even hearing right now]
[Teacher, it’s only easy for you…]
[Shihyun: Declares magic is easy]
[Haha, teach us then lol]

“Really. You just memorize and copy it.”

It’s true. Magic was quite easy for me. Of course, a certain archmage in ‘that world’ claimed that I was able to do such feats because I possessed a body optimized for magic, but I didn’t think so.

“You just have to memorize it well and draw it accurately.”

[???: I just memorized it roughly and drew it, and it worked?]
[Haha, she says drawing a magic circle activates it lol]
[Right lol, just draw and it happens]
[This person is overflowing with smugness]
[Queen of Smugness]

However, the viewers didn’t believe me.

I felt a little sad.

Why was I being labeled a braggart even when I was telling the truth! Where has the justice in this world gone!

A world where society and families have crumbled. A true apocalypse.

But that wasn’t the important thing right now.

I carefully folded my warm concern for the world and tucked it away in a corner of my mind, then looked at the last remaining roulette.

It was a roulette to decide what concept or goal I would play the game with. There were several options that were only applicable if the previous roulette had landed on PvP or multiplayer, not World Conquest.

“Well, I’ll remove all the options unrelated to ‘World Conquest’.”

[Too bad]
[Maybe remember them for the next stream?]
[Yeah, some people donated for those]

“Oh, right. I’ll make a separate note of the unrelated options.”

Saying so, I opened a notepad and wrote down all the options that weren’t related to World Conquest. After finishing the record with my hunt-and-peck typing, I checked the remaining options.

‘There aren’t any particularly difficult options for World Conquest.’

Most of them were requests to hunt certain monsters or wear certain outfits. As I nodded, the chat sped up again.

[Since several options are gone, should we spin again?]
[A second chance for those who were late?]
[Doesn’t seem fair]
[Well, only having four options is a bit lacking]

“Is that so?”

Now that I thought about it, they were right.

Spinning a roulette with only four options would be a bit boring.

“Then I’ll accept additional suggestions for 10 minutes.”

[Second chance!]
[I’ve been waiting for this]
[Hey, at least donate 10000 won before making a request]
[Seriously, trying to freeload with a 1000 won donation is a bit much]
[But anything is allowed]
[Lol]

A flurry of donation notifications poured in.

I checked the donation messages and added them to the roulette one by one. Surprisingly, there were no inappropriate or ban-worthy requests.

Considering that I had written ‘almost anything is allowed,’ it was quite miraculous.

“It’s good that everyone is being so wholesome.”

[Seriously]
[Considering you said almost anything is allowed, everyone’s doing a good job with self-control]
[Haha, we can’t show the goddess anything dirty]
[Shihyun is a baby, we must protect the baby]

“A baby? I’m an adult.”

[But your appearance is ‘young girl,’ isn’t it?]
[You do have a mature aura though]
[Shihyun, but don’t do this kind of risky thing in the future.]
[Yeah, there were no crazies today, but you never know]

“Hmm, you have a point.”

I hadn’t encountered them yet, but the streaming world was full of all sorts of bizarre crazies. They existed among both viewers and streamers.

I should take some precautions to avoid my stream being ruined or getting into trouble because of some weirdo.

[Yeah, right]
[There are crazies everywhere.]
[Seriously lol]
[Even just in Euning’s stream, there are constantly underwear-obsessed creeps and stalkers lol]
[What’s an underwear-obsessed creep?]
[A persistent crazy person who keeps asking what color underwear she’s wearing]
[Lol]

“There are such villains?”

Ugh, a creep asking about underwear color is a bit much.

I definitely needed to take measures to prevent such villains from appearing. I should set up banned words so they get immediately timed out.

‘I should also increase the number of moderators later.’

I thought to myself as I finished adding the requests to the roulette.

“Alright, 10 minutes are up. Closing suggestions now.”

[Nooooooooo wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait]
[Idiot lol, you missed it]
[It’s your fault for being late]
[No I couldn’t find my wallet]
[You should have kept it charged lol]
[Shihyun, can you make an exception just once? I have a request I really want to make]

“I’m sorry, but I have to keep my word. It’s closed.”

The viewers wailed at my words. They should have done it earlier.

As the chat said, it’s the latecomers’ fault.

Ignoring the wailing viewers, I pointed at the roulette and said,

“Alright, I’ve finished recording. Now all that’s left is to spin.”

[Spin spin spin]
[Judging by the options, it’ll be fun no matter what lol]
[What’s with the bunny girl? Was there such an outfit?]
[Yeah, it’s a modded one]

Goosebumps ran down my arms as I glanced at the chat.

‘I hope it doesn’t land on bunny girl…’

I might die of embarrassment.

“Alright, here we go.”

With my declaration, the roulette started spinning. The roulette gained momentum, like a fan.

Then, at some point, it stopped. I widened my eyes and checked what the arrow was pointing at.

[3 Player Kills in Battle Maid Outfit]

“Hmm…”

Battle Maid outfit…

‘At least it’s less revealing than the bunny girl outfit.’

But 3 player kills?

“PK means player kill, right? Killing other users.”

[Yeah, that’s right]
[Oh, killer maid]
[PK mission will be fun lol]
[My mouth is watering lol]

“I haven’t fully grasped the World Conquest system yet, so I don’t know, but are there any restrictions on PK in World Conquest?”

[Nope, free-for-all]
[You can even take someone’s head off in town]
[But if you do it in town, the guards will catch you.]
[The guards are pretty tough]

“Hmm, what if I kill the guards too?”

The guards didn’t seem that difficult.

[You’re thinking of killing them? ]
[She says you can kill the guards too lol]
[But people usually don’t]
[Yeah, killing NPCs is one thing, but random PK is considered unsportsmanlike, and you’ll become a public enemy]

“Ah, I see.”

I roughly understood the atmosphere.

‘So I need to create the right circumstances?’

I needed to make it look like the other person attacked me first, or create a situation where it wouldn’t be considered unsportsmanlike for us to fight.

‘Or I could kill all the witnesses.’

But that would be pointless.

I’m streaming, after all. The viewers watching the broadcast are all witnesses. I can’t kill them all, so assassination (or massacre) was out of the question.

“Hmm, this is quite a tricky condition.”

[But the axe will be good for PK lol]
[Creating the situation is the hard part, once the situation arises, Shihyun will do the chopping…]
[I wonder if we’ll run into some unsporting players? There are rumors of people targeting newbies these days]

“I hope I run into someone like that.”

I chuckled. But would I be that lucky? Things rarely go so smoothly.

I licked my lips and logged into World Conquest.

Then, I bought a suitable axe from the shop.

“Axe secured, now for the maid outfit.”

[No, not just any maid outfit, the ‘Battle Maid outfit’]
[ What’s the difference?]
[The Battle Maid outfit has metal plates mixed in]
[And it shows more skin]
[Oh lol, that’s a great outfit]

“Huh?”

What are they talking about?

‘Shows more skin?’

Doesn’t that mean it’s revealing?

My heart sank. I trusted the viewers…

With a gloomy expression, I wandered around the capital square, searching for this so-called Battle Maid outfit.

‘It might not even be in the capital.’

But I was wrong.

Surprisingly, the capital’s clothing store sold that bizarre outfit! It was even on display, as if it were a new product!

And the Battle Maid outfit was quite revealing.

“Oh no!”

I was in despair at the unbelievable truth.

To have to kill three users while dressed as a scantily clad maid… What is this? A cyberpsycho!

However, there was nothing I could do.

I had already made the promise. And I had received generous donations.

In the end, I had no choice but to wear this shameful excuse for an outfit called the Battle Maid outfit. It was the most mortifying thing in the world.

“I shouldn’t accept revealing outfits next time.”

I muttered to myself, but it was too late.

I felt like a farmer closing the barn door after the cow had already escaped.
