Chapter 37 : Let’s communicate

Beef is delicious.

It’s not for nothing that Joseon Dynasty rulers threatened people, saying they would punish them for slaughtering cows, claiming they were needed for farming. Once you taste it, you can’t forget the flavor, and people will keep eating it!

Of course, no matter what the rulers said, the wise ancestors ignored them like a dog barking at the moon and continued to eat beef.

The taste of beef is something that even the law can’t stop!

Even when the Kim regime was still going strong, there were testimonies that South Korean goods were still coming in, so it’s not like they could really stop anything just by saying not to do it.

“I still remember what we ate last time.”

“It was delicious, Master.”

“The best meat restaurants are the ones where they grill it for you. You can talk to each other while eating, how convenient is that?”

Of course, Miley didn’t really say anything, and it was just me talking.

But still, isn’t that a conver?sation?

Communication is so unique in this way.

Talking to each other is communication.

Even if only one side speaks and the other listens, it’s still communication.

Even if one side refuses, if the other side speaks, it’s communication!

In any case, ‘information’ has been exchanged between each other, so it can be described as a form of communication. Can you say that radio broadcasts or TV programs are not communication?

So, this is communication too.

Soul Frame, Neo City.

I asked the opponent who was lying face down on the ground, unconscious.

“Did you subscribe to Sno.1?”

“Shut up.”

“Oh, I guess not? Then…”

“f*ck, I did! I subscribed, so please stop harassing me. No, please harass me, SeongWon. Why do you fly over here and mess with me every time you see me? Huh? Let me grow a little!”

“Did you like? And turn on notifications?”

“I did it all. I did everything. So please…”

“But you’re still doing that nasty skeleton stuff.”

“?”

“So you have to be punished.”

“You b*tch.”

I left the skeleton, who still couldn’t stop his nasty behavior, in an unconscious state. I ignore the shouting.

“I think the drug called Overload is really scary.”

『Dr?ug』
『It’s definitely a drugㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ』
『It even harms those around you, so it’s totally a drug』
『Skeleton addicts probably don’t even know they’re being nastyㅇㅇ』

Once you get a stack built up as that skeleton and carry, you can’t stop Overloading and endlessly fall into the nasty skeleton, eventually becoming a skeleton yourself.

So, am I not a volunteer working hard every day for a skeleton-free Soul Frame?

“Well, shall we go find another bad person addicted to skeletons today?”

My teammate grumbled at my words.

“SeongWon, please stop firing so much.”

“No, are you really an AI? You just go crazy whenever you see a skeleton.”

“It’s okay. I can solo carry one Overload.”

Even with my answer, my teammate still grumbled.

“What do you mean solo, I’m going crazy.”

“No, what’s the difference between you and an Overload then?”

“Well, I don’t abandon my teammates.”

“?”

“I’m going crazy.”

It’s true, though.

I always participate in engagements.

But they don’t seem to agree.

Or maybe they just don’t want to agree.

Is this the kind of unfair treatment streamers experience?

I don’t know. But the important thing is.

“Ah, but I see Ion firing a beam over there. C?”

“We have to go for that.”

“Yeah, gotta go.”

I’m a good streamer who pulls her own weight.

I shouldn’t be compared to those nasty skeletons.

▣ But why does she hate Overload so much?

[Sno.1 broadcast clip, containing several scenes of SeongWon taunting unconscious Overloads]

Does she have some kind of skeleton phobia? She fires whenever she sees an Overload

─Overloads are originally disgusting
└Just look at their play style. They don’t engage, they abandon their teammates, they’re all about farming, and after getting all that, they play hero by themselves. They’re just super disgusting heroes, right? ㅋㅋ
─I think she lost once before because she couldn’t stop an Overload from farming. She’s been biased against Overloads ever since
└There was a reason
└She learned through learningㅇㅇ It’s an AI’s special feature
─But upvote if you just want skeleton addicts to die
└Upvote

▣ Doesn’t SeongWon do Yeo Dongbin?

I saw the Blinker battle video the other day, and it would be really cool if she did Yeo Dongbin, but she doesn’t.

─Maybe because it’s a Chinese character
└Ahem, it’s martial arts. Martial arts and Chinese are different.
└Isn’t Yeo Dongbin Xianxia, not martial arts?
─I think she likes ranged characters? Especially with mobility skillsㅇㅇ Yeo Dongbin isn’t a character with mobility skills
└He has sword flight
└Mobi?lity
└You call that a mobility skill? LOL
─Tell her to do it. She’s good at communicating
└Why doesn’t she communicate with Overloads then?
└Well… they’re not people, they’re bugs, right?
└[Deleted comment]
└That’s a cheat key to find skeletonsㅋㅋ

▣ But why is there so much talk about streamers in the Soul Gallery?

[A picture of SeongWon giving a thumbs-up]

I don’t dislike SeongWon, I’m just curious ㅇㅇ

─Streamer Gallery hates SeongWon
─‘Because some no-foundation newbie got lucky’
└Got you, spy
└That’s what those guys say. I accidentally pressed enter, and now I’m being treated like a spy;
─It’s a hot topic in the Streamer Gallery too, but they don’t like her because she buries the issues of the streamers they like, and honestly, she’s half considered a Soul Gallery pro playerㅇㅇ;;
└[Video of SSG Ready2Die saying that SeongWon’s skills are no different from a top-tier pro]
└The gallery owner already acknowledged her
─She started out with a kind of monster rookie vibe, and the first person she really got involved with on her stream was basically NoSurrender, so that’s probably why?

▣ But has anything about SeongWon’s personal information been revealed?

[Thumbs-up photo]

I’m curious about her face. Her voice is super sexy.

─There’s probably a reason why she doesn’t show her face. Like the old Durahan.
└Spy
└But it’s meaningless if she doesn’t turn on the live cam even if she reveals itㅇㅇ
─What if she revealed her face and she was a super-stunning beauty?
└I’d immediately donate 99.9 billion won
└Then SeongWon would re-donate the 99.9 billion wonㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
└ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋIs she still re-donating all her donations?
└Yep. That’s another reason why the Streamer Gallery hates her. More people are coming to the streams of the streamers they like and causing trouble ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

▣ I suddenly had a scary thought

[A picture of Pepe the Frog with a happy expression]

What if SeongWon is actually a super-stunning beauty?
And she’s not showing her face to give a twist?
What if the super-sexy-physical-soul-genius I’m supporting is actually an idol-level super-stunning beauty??????

─ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
└SeongWon is an AI, how can she show her face?
└Couldn’t she just upload a picture of the server room? I really don’t know
└The server room could be a little sexy…
─Delusional, seriouslyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Get a grip
└Yeah, the happy delusion is going too far
└Even if she’s not the ugly type, super-stunning idol-level beauty is what kind of otaku delusion is that? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

I was startled as I scrolled through my smartphone.

“No, how did they know?”

Could this guy be an employee of our company?

I immediately called CEO Cha.

“CEO Cha, did you spread this around?”

“Huh? No, I didn’t… Should we investigate internally just in case?”

“Yes, let’s do that.”

Just in case.

Thus, a mysterious internal investigation began.

*

*

Recently, the pattern of the broadcasts has been diversifying.

To be precise, I should say that I’m deliberately changing the broadcast pattern according to CEO Cha’s plan.

[‘CEO Cha’: Let’s increase the communication portion today.]

[‘To CEO Cha’: Confirmed. I’ll refer to document number 3.]

After sending the message, I raised my head again.

Then, I turned on a program in the interface and said.

“I’ll spin today’s communication roulette.”

At the same time, a large, flashy roulette wheel appeared.

I call it the communication roulette.

Viewers call it the ‘scam-biased communication roulette’.

The roulette has 25 slots, and each slot has today’s communication ratio written on it. The communication ratio increases by 2% each time, up to a maximum of 50%.

Yeah, yeah. Even so, I’ll play the game for half of the time.

『LetsGO LetsGO LetsGO』
『PleasePlease』
『Just not like three days ago』
『GodofAIAsimovTuringAlphaGoMicrosoftMuskPleasePrayForUsPleaseDontLetTheCommunicationBe50%PleasePleasePlease』

As the chat window filled with prayer chats, I spun the roulette program. Then the roulette spins.

[ReversalDanggaRabbit sponsored 1,000 won!]
[PleasePleaseNo50%]

After I first opened it, donations are still open.

However, after realizing that I have absolutely no intention of giving what is commonly called a donation thank-you reaction, viewers only throw what is commonly called a ‘thousand won punch’.

Still, a surprisingly large amount of money was accumulating every day.

[TatTatTasha sponsored 1,000 won!]
[SeriouslyNoImSerious]
[GrandmasterIksin sponsored 1,000 won!]
[ICantReallyHitYouWithMoneyLOL]
[Id0nt1ik2y0u sponsored 1,000 won!]
[Try hitting me with money ㅋㅋ See what happens]

First of all, the amount of 1,000 won is not that big.

1,000 won, 1 dollar, 100 yen.

In any case, it’s an amount that ordinary people can spend without much 고민, so donations have increased.

As the number of viewers increased to 6,000, more people seemed to want to chat for 1,000 won, thinking that their words were being buried in the rapidly rising chat.

In addition, the fact that the donations made go to child welfare, not me.

Viewers have come to perceive it as donating to a welfare facility rather than donating to a streamer.

In fact, every day when I broadcast, I add up the total amount of donations received that day, donate twice that amount, and do a show of ending the broadcast, so it’s not wrong.

So, the amount of donations that accumulate every day is about 1 million won to 1.3 million won.

Actually, it’s not just accumulated by thousand won punches, sometimes there are big hands, so to speak… high-value donors.

[CarrotRoast sponsored 100,000 won!]
[CameToDonate]

[NannaBellyFat sponsored 70,000 won!]
[CheckingTodaysGoodDeed]

Not huge amounts, just people who donate a reasonable amount. They were people who donated here knowing that I would double it.

“CarrotRoast, NannaBellyFat. Thank you for your interest in child welfare. I’ll remember you.”

I’m giving these people something like a donation reaction. It’s not overly exaggerated, though.

『DonationReactionㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ』
『ItsAnnoyingThatSheDoesntReactToThousandWonPunches』
『NormallyOtherStreamsDontReallyReactToThousandWonPunchesㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ』
『DonationRecommended』

Well, anyway, I’m grateful that everyone likes it. I thought so and watched the roulette wheel slowly stop.

This roulette has a very minor feature.

On the surface, it looks like a roulette program that streamers often use to add fun to their broadcasts…

Actually, it was a roulette that I coded so that I could control which slot it would stop on. I paid the company that made the roulette to make another one that looks exactly the same and I’m using that.

…Well, it’s just a rigged roulette.

“Oh, today’s communication is 30%.”

『f*ck』
『Ah, I see this is a scam, it’s a scam』
『Communication is good too~』
『She’s still playing the game, right? ㅋㅋㅋ 70%』
『But it’s a bit suspicious』
『LOL』
