Chapter 42: [New Clothes and Growth]
<<Magical girl! ? So cute!>>
Eximed Angu-ogu, who hade to the unveiling distribution.
Yes, my new costume is a magical girl.
>This is a transformer girl.
>I see a trantion and transformation trancebination.
>So cute! (U.S.)
<<Right? I''m thinking that the magic stick here is a globe.>>
<<Oh. I''ve be an international VTuber recently, haven''t I?>>
<<Oh, and then there''s the magic circle effect. The letters scattered throughout the screen are the letters of each country.>>
<<Haha, interesting! I think it''s a very nice design that incorporates international elements.>>
<<Right! I have to thank my mama! Oh, it''s not the Irohaha one.>>
>Thank you, Mama! (U.S.)
>The globe is spinning with the swing of your head.
>>Frilled neck is cute.
<<Thank you foring today.>>
<<You gave me a message on my birthday, too, didn''t you? This is a thank you for that.>>
>Sending a surprise message instead of singing together was a good idea. (U.S.)
>Manager did a good job. (U.S.)
>Ogu was crying, wasn''t she?
<<Nah, I wasn''t crying! I don''t know when Iroha even got my manager involved.>>
<<From the very beginning? Ogu''s manager is bilingual and has many meetings in Japan, right? I had a chance to consult with her about some minor nuances I was having trouble with.>>
<<What?>>
<<On the other hand, I also got help when I was having trouble with behind-the-scenes work.>>
<<Uh, something like that happened behind the scenes. ….Gurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!>>
>Ogu barked.
>The wife is burning with jealousy (U.S.)
>Iroha is good at stirring up ogu w (U.S.)
<<Hey, manager. I have something important to talk to you aboutter.>>
<<No, it''s just a "business friend" in a good way. As expected, the only person who even falls asleep on the phone is Ogu>>
<<Hey!? You there!? >>
>You''re talking about falling asleep? (U.S.)
>Even falling asleep calls!? (U.S.)
>10,000 yen wedding gift
<<Stop it! Don''t spacha at this time! Oh no! So much for this story!!!>>
<<Yeah, that''s right. We''ve got guests waiting for us after this, so we should wrap it up soon. Thanks so much foring today!>>
<<……Huh. You''re wee.>>
Angu-ogu said with a pouty attitude, and then, as if she couldn''t stand it any longer, she blew up.
I blew up too.
I wasn''t really angry. It was just the usual banter.
I was distracted. This time, I really should end the call.
<<See youter. Bye-bye.>>
<<Goodbye. I love you!>>
"Ah."
The call was cut off, and the Japanese-speaking crowd was buzzing in thements section.
Angu-ogu must have lost his mind.
>She just said ‘I love you!''
>She was confessing!
>I mean, doesn''t that mean they''re already together?
After thinking about it for a while.
I nodded, feeling annoyed.
"Ogu confessed to me ?."
<<WRONG.>>
My ears were ringing.
Angu-ogu, who had returned to the call in a hurry, was shouting.
"Japan, everyone, it''s different masu. That was an aissatsu. It was not a confession. <<You know what I mean! It''s just my habit～!>>"
>Always!?
>Habit! ? ! ? ! ?
>Grave digging. LOL
"Watashi, eigo, wakarimasen."
<<Lie! Iroha, exin it to everyone properly!!!!>>
＊ ＊ ＊
And so, the unveiling of the new clothes ended without incident.
I was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Everyone readily epted my new costume design.
That was another proof that I had established myself as an international VTuber.
Besides, my domestic visibility was also increasing.
Not only among viewers but also among my peers.
The trigger was getting a regr quiz project.
The project was famous, and a different VTuber woulde as a guest each time.
My friendships were rapidly expanding.
Recently, I''ve been able to invite overseas VTubers to participate in the quiz project by interpreting for them.
Everything is going well. And it should be.
Even thementary is going very well.
No, it''s going too well. It''s going too well.
".. Is my ability growing again, is it?"
Somehow my memory of Japanese has also improved.
That''s also the reason why I won the quiz project.
I no longer forget Japanese words once I see or hear them.
I can pull out information rted tonguages, even trivia that I can''t even remember where I learned it from.
"I think I could even memorize all the Kojien and English-English dictionaries now."
…… Well, I won''t do it!
It is indeed too much effort, and most importantly, it is not beneficial.
For example, acquiring knowledge at Eiken Level 1 is meaningless to me.
Because all the words that appear there are almost jargon words.
In other words, learning thenguage does not increase the number of VTubers I can promote.
What I need is shallow and broad knowledge. Deep knowledge is not a priority.
"Or no way, am I afraid?"
I can''t imagine what would happen if this ability grew faster than now.
Or what will happen when I''m not even myself anymore?
"That''s ridiculous."
I snapped out of my thoughts and turned over.
Then I heard a beep and a message ring.
I''ve been getting so many invitations to participate in projectstely that I''ve had to decline more often.
But this time, I had no choice but to participate.
Because it was something important, something that could be a clue to my abilities.
What is this project?
＊ ＊ ＊
"Chiki Chiki! A n to have VTubers from all over the world just say [Stupid]!"
"Ooooooooooooooooo!"
I screamed with my tension maxed out.
