Chapter 314: [The Purpose Of Game Streaming]


    “YAHOOO! WOOHOOO! YAY!!!!”


    ?Ilyesha, calm down


    ?She’s freaking out, so funny


    ?Well, I totally get how she feels!


    “Well, I actually wanted to decline, but if I didn’t, it looked like I would have to face the international VTuber event without a solo song. That would have been problematic, or so the management said.”


    ?Of course, the management would be in trouble


    ?So, you finally couldn’t avoid singing anymore w


    ?Until now, we only had a few singing streams and fan-made ‘Boyiroid’ songs to console us, so I’m happy


    “Exactly! I’ve checked all the ‘Boyiroid’ songs that were released so far, but nothingpares to having an original solo song…”“Wait, is that what they’re called? It’s the first time I’ve heard that! Actually, for thisposition, we asked the producer who made those ‘Boyiroid’ songs. To be precise, he reached out to us, saying, ‘Let mepose it.’”


    “Really!? Well done, Producer-san!”


    “And because of that connection, there are some surprises in the song? The PV will be released soon, so please look forward to it~”


    “HAAAIIII!!!”


    “That’s a very enthusiastic response. And finally! In the demo version, it’s not implemented yet… or rather, it doesn’t appear, but in the official release, there will be a secret character in the gacha?”


    “We haven’t been informed of the details either. It’s very exciting!”


    ?Seriously! How much effort is being put into this coboration?


    ?Who could the secret character be?


    ?I’m so jealous… I can only y the Japanese and English versions (Ukrainian)


    “Oh…”


    Ament in Ukrainian catches my eye.


    I see, many of Ilena’s fans are from Ukrainian or Russian-speaking regions, but this game is not avable there yet…


    But this isn’t a problem that can be solved overnight.


    As I hesitate, Ilena deres confidently,


    “It’s okay!”


    She says with a voice full of confidence andpassion.


    “That’s why my streams exist, for people like that!”


    “…!”


    I had never thought of it that way.


    Game streaming isn’t just about enjoying someone’s reactions.


    It’s about sharing the fun with people who can’t y the game for various reasons.


    Ilena said she became a VTuber because she admired me, but she was already paving her own path, far ahead or perhaps in a different direction from mine.


    “But as for me… I still want people to learn thenguage and y the game themselves! So, Iroha-sama, if you don’t mind… could we do anguage-learning stream together!?”


    “Of course!”


    I would be delighted to coborate on something like that.


    In fact, I wanted to ask her myself.


    ?Seriously? A promise for the next coboration?


    ?So happy! Looking forward to it! (Ukrainian)


    ?By the way, could you also do another ASMR coboration?


    “I see! Iroha-sama, let’s do an ASMR coboration too!”


    “Stop with the bundling! It was a good story up until now! And no, I’m absolutely against it because Ilena does naughty things!”


    “No, no, I don’t?”


    “Staaare.”


    “… But idents might happen.”


    “See!?”


    “Just kidding! It’s a joke! We’ll do ‘normal’ ASMR!”


    “Really? Okay, fine.”


    “Without saying that… Huh?”


    ?!?!?!?


    ?Did she just say “fine”???


    ?Iroha-chan agreed!? She’s been so softtely!


    “Rea-Really!? Are you sure? You’re not misunderstanding, right? We’re talking about an ASMR coboration, you know!?”


    “No need to confirm so much. But just once… okay?”


    “…? YAY!”


    Well, it’s a reward and a thank you.


    For Ilena’s activities.


    “So, when should we do it!?”


    “Stop, stop, calm down! First, we have thenguage-learning stream, right?”


    “Oh, right.”


    “And I’m in America now… An offline cob is difficult. But I’m nning to return to Japan in about 1-2 months. If possible, I’d like to meet Ilena then.”


    “Of course! I’ll definitely keep my schedule open!”


    ?Ugh, the anticipation!


    ?1-2 monthster means around the end of the year?


    ?Wait a minute, does that mean Christmas!?


    “Um, Ilena-chan! So, think about the ASMR scenario by then, okay?”


    “Understood! Should it be the first night or the morning after the wedding?”


    “Why that choice!? Anyway, let’s focus on thenguage stream first… When’s your next free time?”


    “Please wait a moment. I’ll send my schedule.”


    “Got it. Once we align our schedules and are ready, we’ll announce it to everyone. So, that’s it for today’s stream!”


    “Iroha-sama, Iroha-sama!”


    “Hmm?”


    ?I love you!?


    “Cough, cough!?”


    “And that’s a wrap! See you~!”


    “‘See otsuka-re-ta arige-ta-’!”


    ?A satisfying stream with many announcements for the big event


    ?Iroha-chan got flustered


    ?See youter & goodbye! (Ukrainian)


    “Ah, Ilena, you got me at the end.”


    I muttered after the stream ended.


    Caught off guard, I choked a bit.


    After checking the schedule Ilena sent, I conveyed my avable days.


    She immediately replied, “Understood!”


    I’ve said it countless times, but being an independent VTuber has its strengths.


    With corporate VTubers, especially recently with Angauge, there are many ‘tentative’ ns like [We’ll record on one of these days!], making it hard to coborate.


    “Language stream, huh…”


    I noticed myself smiling unconsciously.


    Apparently, I was really looking forward to coborating with Ilena.


    ***


    The next day after such a game promotion stream.


    ?Iroha… I love you?


    ?No… Ogu, not there… stop, ah!??


    As I was being teased by Angu Ogu in the living room, which had be a daily routine…


    BAM! The front door suddenly opened.


    ?!?!?!??


    What!? Did I forget to lock it!?


    But who would open the door so dramatically… oh, I know one person who might.


    “Iroha-chan, Ogu! I’m here to visit~~~~!”
