Chapter 6: [Lunaverse Burger Shop] Yuki-dan, be careful with your wallet! [Yuki/Lunaverse] (2)

– ???: This is EZ. I’ll show you some pro-level gameplay.

– Puhaha

– lolololol

– Ahahaha

– Instant karma LOL

– hahahahahaha

“……”

There was a time I believed that…

Can’t blame me, right?

The early game was easy enough to say stuff like that without thinking.

Most of the customers made normal, straightforward orders too, so it was only natural I let my guard down.

[Leotard: I don’t like postmodernism. Uh… how should I put it… it leans too much into pluralism and irrational thought, I suppose?]

[What?]

[Okay]

“……”

A request so incomprehensible, I had no idea what he was saying.

I immediately clicked the [What?] button to ask again.

[What?]

[Leotard: Let’s just go with something classic. Ah, and add a bit of red to it, if you can.]

[What?]

[Leotard: A classic burger with extra ketchup.]

“If you just wanted ketchup on a classic burger, what was all that about postmodernism? That made zero sense.”

– So true

– Literally sounds like a college exam passage…

– Like those Korean SAT reading questions

– Just use the damn kiosk LOL

– Freakin’ kiosk lmao

“Well, the customer is king. Gotta do what he says…”

I headed to the kitchen and began assembling the burger.

Bun, patty, ketchup, ketchup, tomato, cabbage.

I stacked the ingredients in order, then squeezed mayo on top.

“Haah, get ready for a big load of the white stuff~”

Sploosh, splurt!!

– LET’S GOOOO~!!

– Sploosh splurt

– WTF LOL

– Please stop…

– Why does the mayo sound so cursed

– It should be a wholesome sound… and yet…

– I’ve been gaslit…

“That’s just because Yukidan are all pervs. I didn’t do anything wrong.”

– Excuse me LOL

– That’s YOUR fault!!!

– Give me back my innocence…

Ignoring their nonsense, I placed the top bun and finished the burger.

And so it was complete: Yuki-chan’s handmade, protein-packed, super-creamy mayo-loaded special burger!

I wrapped it up and served it to the customer.

Did I get it right?

The man, who had been expressionless, smiled as he took the burger and paid.

[+$5]

[Leotard: Tastes like a Renaissance served with a side of Michael Jackson!]

“…Still have no idea what he’s talking about.”

What the hell does a Renaissance with Michael Jackson even taste like?

Also, now that I’m looking, his name sounds a lot like “leotard.”

No wonder he’s crazy.

Guys in tight suits always seem to be out of their minds.

That’s exactly why I never got into tokusatsu as a kid.

(TL note: Tokusatsu is a Japanese term referring to live-action films and television programs that make extensive use of practical special effects.)

[Bob: Bun please]

[What?] [Okay]

Then came a customer with an oddly simple order.

“…Huh? Just the bun?”

– ?

– ?

– Bun?

– A burger made of… bun

– It’s not a Hamburger, it’s a Ham ger

– lol

– Ham ger lmaooo

– hahaha

[What?]

[Bob: Literally just that. No ingredients. Just the bun, please.]

Even after double-checking, the order didn’t change.

He wanted a burger with nothing but the bun.

“Uh… Okay. Got it…”

I made a face, but followed through with the request.

I grilled the sliced buns, didn’t add a single other ingredient, and wrapped it up.

When I handed it over, the customer smiled and took it happily.

[Bob: Yes! This is the taste!]

– He really just wanted bread

– Yep

– Bro just go to a bakery…

– Jean Valjean core

“But honestly, don’t hamburger buns taste kinda good by themselves?”

That soft, pillowy bread.

Even without butter, grilling it lightly on a greasy grill would probably make it tasty.

Come to think of it, I haven’t had bread in a while.

Actually, when’s the last time I even had carbs?

Like… three days ago?

“…Ugh, I’m hungry…”

Now that I was thinking about it, my stomach started growling.

The graphics alone hadn’t triggered it before, but…

Was it imagining the taste?

Suddenly, I couldn’t stop salivating.

I want a burger.

A cheeseburger, stacked with gooey cheese.

Soft buns with two juicy all-beef patties on top.

Melted cheese dripping down the sides.

A tangy mix of ketchup and savory mayo.

Fresh cabbage and tomato to balance the richness.

And the pièce de résistance—pickles.

I’d press that towering cheeseburger down…

Open my mouth as wide as I could…

And take a massive bite…!!

“…Ah.”

– lolololol

– Growl

– Hahaha that’s adorable

– so cute…

– That stomach growl LOL

– Guess she really was hungry

– Grrrrr…

– 700

I must’ve imagined it too vividly, because my stomach actually growled.

It was loud enough to get picked up on the mic.

Blushing, I cleared my throat and tried to play it off.

“Ahem… I’m just hungry. I’ll eat something after the stream…”

– lololololol

– Sounds so good

– Feed me too nom nom

– Lazy gay confirmed…

– Yuki, you made me hungry, take responsibility—man, now I want a burger

– Ordering chicken right now lol

To be honest, I don’t even have rice at home for after this.

I’ll probably sauté some bean sprouts or something.

If I don’t eat something, I’ll pass out.

[End of Day 4]

[$109]

While I was chatting with Yukidan, Day 4 ended.

Clicking through the screen brought me to the shop screen.

[Cheese – $100]

[Pickles – $100]

[Bacon – $100]

[…]

“Day 4 already over, huh. Let’s see what I can buy.”

– Cheese

– Buy cheese

– Mint choco

– Gotta get cheese

– 100 bucks = instant cheese, no question

Everyone was voting cheese.

Well, cheeseburgers are basically the gold standard.

Also, after imagining one earlier, I was really craving it.

[-$100]

[Cheese – Purchase complete]

I bought cheese right away and hit “Next” to continue.

<<Day 5>>

The chirping of birds accompanied the scene of the counter.

A few seconds in, a woman appeared with a child in tow.

[Kathy: Cheeseburger. It’s for the kid.]

[What?] [Okay]

And when I read the order, I couldn’t help but mentally scream with a hundred question marks.

“…Sorry, what?”

– What?

– ?

– If it’s for a kid then…

– So what?

– ?

– ??????

[What?]

I re-confirmed the order.

And the reply shocked me even more.

[Kathy: I said it’s for the kid. That should tell you everything.]

[What?]

[Kathy: Since it’s for a kid, it should be free. You seriously can’t do that much?]

[Satisfaction -50%]

“……?”

– lolololol

– What kind of realistic NPC behavior is this

– Bruhh

– What is this game

– Karen customer alert

– Suddenly this game feels like a horror sim

– Seriously…

– Is this a game or a documentary?

So… she wants me to give her kid a free burger?

…That’s just theft.

And asking her to clarify dropped the satisfaction meter by 50%.

“Come on, this totally counts as a Karen, right? I’m not just being sensitive?”

– Yep

– YEPYEPYEPYEP

– Absolute Karen

– For real

– Why does this game piss me off

– Time to teach a lesson

“Nope. Time to bring the hammer down on this Karen.”

– ?

– Gonna refuse service?

– What’s she gonna do?

– oh no…

– Karen vs Yuki

– I’m scared…

– What are you planning…

– yikes

Ignoring the nervous Yukidan, I returned to the kitchen.

Grilled the sliced buns and placed them on the board.

Then grabbed the mayo bottle—

And squeezed it onto the bun like there was no tomorrow.

“TAKE THIS…!!”

SPLURT!!!

– Not again?

– I’m losing it

– Mayo mode on

– Degenerate…

– lololololol

I squeezed the white, sticky mayo onto the bun raw.

But this time, I didn’t stop with just one.

“AND AGAIN! AGAIN AND AGAIN!! TAKE ALL OF IT!!!”

– LOL

– How many times is she squeezing it

– lmaoooo

– Just mayo?!

– That’s a mayo burger lol

After about 10 squeezes, the mayo was stacked as tall as a regular burger.

I placed the top bun on and finished it off.

“Slippery, sticky, and rich! Yuki-chan’s Extra Creamy Mayo Burger is ready!”

– lol

– I’m dead

– Degenerate…

– “Extra creamy” bruh

– Why is the wording so trashy

– Manager-san crying again today…

– Instant demonetization

– DDDDEGENERATIONNNN

[Kathy: You call this a burger? I’m so disappointed!]

The woman left in a huff, dragging her child with her—and didn’t even pay.

Well, considering there was no meat and it was just full of mayo, can’t really blame her.

“Serves her right. Hope she never comes back.”

– Like she ever would lol

– Mayo burger wtf

– Breaking food safety laws live on stream…

– SCANDAL

– lolololol

– Still a satisfying outcome

– Honestly, this was cathartic

– I didn’t know mayo was this lewd…

– hahaha

– I’m losing my mind

– goinginsanegoinginsanegoinginsane

– I’m gonna snap

“Breaking food safety laws? Come on! A burger full of love can’t be dirty!”

That’s right—it’s a love-filled burger.

If I hadn’t emphasized the word “love” weirdly.

If I hadn’t blushed while my avatar made a suggestive face.

Yukidan would’ve agreed, right?

– LOL

– Omg no

– Double dose of love = smells like something else

– bruh

– Degenerates

– Can’t look at mayo the same again

– For real

– This is all your fault, Yuki…

“This isn’t my fault—it’s YOU guys who are twisted. You pervy Yukidan.”

– ?

– ?lol

– That’s a stretch

– Just say “lol true” and move on

– LMAO

– Hypocrisy levels peaking

– lol true

“Hypocrisy? Yuki-chan is the picture of purity, thank you very much.”

– LMAOOOO

– Purity?!

– Fuckin’ pure, huh

– Already corrupted

– Yep~ Instant demonetization

– omg lol

– Was this only Day 2 of streaming?

– Wait the first stream was just a teaser

– At this rate, degeneracy is the default

Corrupted? I’ve been holding back, okay?

I’m resisting the urge to cuss, and keeping the dirty jokes light.

If I were still the old me with no filter…

‘Buhiiit… Buhihihihit! Yuki-chan’s super-thick premium X-juice~♡ Shooting white sticky stuff all over your food~♡’

…

Let’s stop there.

Going VTuber was the right call.

If I didn’t have a company keeping me in check, I’d probably be arrested by now.

Not just a red pill—I’d be on the red list.

Even I don’t want that.

“Anyway, hasn’t it been about an hour?”

I glanced at the clock.

It was nearly 10 PM.

Since I started around 8, I’d been streaming almost two hours.

– It’s over

– Nearly two hours already

– Wait it’s 10pm??

– Time flew

– No way… right?

– You’re not ending already, are you?

– No way you’d wrap it up here~

“Yeah. I’m ending the stream.”

– ?

– ?

– ?!?!

– What?

– ?

– You can’t do that

– Already?

– Just 2 hours and you’re gone?

– At least give us 5 hours!

“I mean… I’m tired too. And I need to eat.”

Honestly, playing a cooking game made me starving.

Even though I’d been making cursed mayo burgers, even the pixel lettuce looked good right now.

“I’ll stop after finishing Day 5. Just one more round.”

I continued chatting and playing with Yukidan.

Thankfully, there were no more weird orders after that lady, so I breezed through.

I wrapped up the burger I’d been making, served it, and the screen faded to black.

[End of Day 5]

[$109]

“That’s it. Day 5’s done.”

– Nooooo

– Lame lame lame

– You serious?

– Ending it like this is mid

– Sad

– Don’t gooooo

– STAYYYY!!!!

– Where you think you’re going

“Thanks for watching today’s stream! See you next time! Yukigenyo~”

– 😭😭😭

– Yukigenyo~

– Nooo…

– Yuba…

– Yukigenyo!

– okgn

– bye bye

[The stream has ended by the streamer.]

And so, my second livestream came to a close.
