Chapter 11: Kyaaaaaah!!!

After that, the collab stream with Miho went smoothly.

We got a game over because of a lich in the pyramid, so we made a new map.

Thankfully, the new map didn’t generate weird desert terrain, and we were able to gather cobblestones and farm resources the standard way.

We combined the wood we farmed with cobblestones to craft an ‘axe.’

Then we used the axe to mine stone and get flint to make a ‘pickaxe.’

Once the basic gear was made, there wasn’t much else.

All that was left was to dig down and endlessly farm resources, like slaves in a mine.

“…Should we end the stream soon?”

We’d been digging like slaves in the Aoji coal mine for an hour now.

Exhausted, I turned to Miho and suggested it.

“Yeah, we’re getting to that point. It’s been almost two hours straight.”

“Let’s end it… I don’t want to be a s*ave in the Aoji mine anymore…”

“Aoji mine? What now?”

“I’m being conscripted and forced to work without even minimum wage… Yuki-chan’s precious labor is being used just to mine coal…”

– LOLLLLL

– No way lmaooo

– Don’t end the stream ㅠㅠㅠ

– Already?

– If it’s not too much trouble, could you stream for 10 more hours

– Don’t leave, come play with us

“I don’t care. I’m ending the stream.”

“You really are?”

“Yeah. Keeping it going any longer would just make it boring.”

A true streamer knows when to end the show!

So this isn’t me quitting because I’m tired—no, I’m ending it to preserve the peak fun.

I just decided that right now.

Counterarguments only accepted in cash.

“Well then, everyone, Yukigenyo… Stay safe out there…”

“Thanks for joining us, everyone…”

– Yuba~

– Don’t goㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

– Yuki bye~

– OtsuMiho~

– bbyee

– You’re doomed if you don’t upload

– OtsuMiho

– Yuba~

And with that short farewell,

The collab with Miho came to an end.

The day after the collab with Miho.

My day began with a piercing scream.

“KYAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!”

A beautifully crisp scream.

And the one who screamed was me, as I scrambled up onto my bed in a panic.

Something black skittered across the wooden floor.

So grotesque in appearance it defied verbal description.

It was none other than…

Mister Roach.

“KYAAA!! K-KYAAAAAAACK!!!!!!”

Like a child who’d forgotten how to talk, I just kept screaming.

I couldn’t help it.

A creature scarier than cosmic horror itself was right in front of me.

The moment Mr. Roach scurried toward the left wall, I dashed to the front door.

I grabbed a rolled-up bundle of newspapers—my makeshift weapon of justice.

Then, holding the newspaper high over my head—

“DIEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!”

I started wailing on Mr. Roach without mercy.

Whap, whap!! WHUMP!!

The poor wooden floor cried out under the barrage.

They say cockroaches react a hundred times faster than humans, right?

That must be true, because he kept dodging every strike with those freaky twists of his body.

“AAAAAARGH!!!!!!”

WHUMP─!!!

After smacking the floor about a hundred times…

Mr. Roach wasn’t running anymore.

I finally checked the other side of the newspaper, and there he was—squashed so flat even Bear Grylls would approve.

“Ugh…”

Wearing a disgusted expression, I stuffed his corpse into a garbage bag.

Then I tied it up tight, sealing it shut so he couldn’t escape.

He probably won’t resurrect in that condition.

Then again, roaches are the kind to keep moving even after their heads are cut off, so… not totally impossible, but surely he can’t escape from a sealed bag.

Anyway.

Phase one complete, I began scanning the floor with laser focus.

Had Mr. Roach dropped an egg sac before dying?

“Looks like there’s no egg sac. Phew.”

Still, just to be safe, I needed to spray pesticide under the bed and between furniture gaps.

If he laid eggs, it could lead to a catastrophe like last time.

One time, a roach laid eggs in my rice cooker.

I didn’t notice at first, and it snowballed into a full-blown infestation.

I lost so much sleep because I kept feeling them crawling on me at night.

It got so bad, I basically lived outside to avoid coming home.

I’d squat near the front door, leeching Wi-Fi and scrolling forums to kill time.

Anyway.

My place had turned into a roach nest, way beyond what I could handle.

I ended up calling pest control to wipe them all out.

It cost me a fortune, but what choice did I have?

No way I could take on the Roach Legion alone.

“…Let’s get this thing out of here first.”

I took the bag with Mr. Roach outside.

Guess I was taking out the trash earlier than expected today.

---

Thankfully, even after searching my room again, I didn’t see any more roaches.

It probably crawled in through the pipes or something.

Good thing I don’t have to crush another one.

I’ve got a weak stomach—I can’t deal with bugs.

“Seriously, though… Why is this apartment such trash…”

No wonder bugs like roaches sneak in.

Apartments in better neighborhoods don’t have this problem as much.

And it’s not just bugs.

In the winter, cold wind seeps through because the insulation sucks.

There’s only a single-pane window too, which doesn’t help.

This place has the nickname ‘San Andreas’ for a reason.

Just walking down the street, you hear Chinese being spoken everywhere.

“Newer apartments these days look so shiny and nice. Once I start making money, I’m moving.”

Once monetization kicks in and I get my payouts, this broke life is over.

I’ll live in one of those faancy Seoul Gangnam apartments rich people live in.

Oh, and I’ll get a car too.

Might as well go romantic with a BNW.

Color? Green. Model? Peridot?

Peridot Green.

Yeah, that name has a dreamy vibe.

But… can I even drive?

I’ve had my license, but never actually driven.

It was during this silly daydream about future homes and cars that a message popped up:

[Manager-san: Yuki-san.]

[Manager-san: Are you ready for today’s stream?]

A message from my manager.

I quickly typed a reply:

[Yuki: Manager-san Manager-san!!]

[Yuki: A COCKROACH just came out of nowhere in my room!!!!!]

[Manager-san: Huh? A cockroach?]

[Yuki: It came out from under my bed]

[Yuki: Black, hairy, and had antennas aekshaksdf]

[Yuki: lsdfkjhsdf]

[Yuki: nawjfw]

[Yuki: bya35]

AAAAAAHHHH…

Yeah. Cockroaches really are cosmic horror.

Fear that defies human logic.

Just thinking about them makes my SAN stat plummet.

(SAN: short for Sanity, mental stability.)

[Manager-san: Okay, okay]

[Manager-san: Please calm down first]

[Yuki: …Okay.]

[Manager-san: Anyway, about the stream]

[Manager-san: I asked earlier—are you ready?]

[Yuki: Yup]

[Yuki: Sound setup is done, just need to go live!]

Today’s stream was a singing broadcast.

I was planning to sing a dozen or so songs live and hang out with Yuki-dan.

[Manager-san: That’s a relief.]

[Manager-san: I was worried since you suddenly said you’d do a singing stream.]

[Manager-san: And all the MR requests you sent were weird songs…]

[Yuki: Sorry lol]

[Yuki: But only doing normal songs is boring, right?]

[Yuki: So I made like half of them gag songs!]

What’s the fun in seriously singing only idol songs?

It’s not like I sing as well as Arin from gen 2.

I’d already built my image as a lewd-comedy character, so I had to lean into it.

Besides, that’s just how I am.

[Manager-san: ……]

[Manager-san: Fine.]

[Manager-san: We run things pretty laissez-faire anyway.]

[Manager-san: Just don’t start a flame war, please.]

[Yuki: Don’t worry! I’ve been good so far, haven’t I?]

[Manager-san: …You’re really saying that with a straight face?]

Uh-oh, manager’s mad again.

Did I screw something up?

I really thought I was keeping things within bounds…

[Manager-san: Honestly, we’re only safe because NewTube’s content guidelines got looser. If this was before, your videos would’ve been demonetized ages ago.]

[Manager-san: And you’ve already been suspended once for crossing the line in a girlcam stream.]

[Manager-san: Could you just be a little more careful?]

[Yuki: Got it, got it]

[Yuki: I won’t cross the line anymore]

[Yuki: Okay?]

Well… that’s a lie.

Tiptoeing on the edge is way more fun.

Sacrificing content for safety?

That’s a mindset no true streamer should have.

[Manager-san: Anyway, I’ll leave it at that for now]

[Manager-san: See you during the stream]

[Yuki: Yup!]

[Yuki: Byeee!]

“…A singing stream, huh…”

Will I be okay?

…Can I pull it off?

I’ve only sung on stream a few times, really.

And even then, it was just impromptu karaoke with background tracks from NewTube.

Maybe that’s why… I was kinda nervous this time.

“…Well, I’ll figure it out somehow!”

If I fail, then I’ll worry.

Right now, I just need to focus on getting ready for the stream.

“……”

I’ll be fine, right?

…Yeah. I’ll totally be fine.

But in the end, I couldn’t beat the nerves and, like a loser, started warming up my voice.

“Brrrrrr~”

W-what?

Gotta protect my vocal cords.

…It’s not because I’m scared, okay?
