Chapter 104: You have to open an escape route

“Of course, they’re alive! Why?”

“Understood. Then the next question…”

I nodded lightly at the senior’s answer.

“Wait, wait. What was the intention behind that last question?”

Telling the subject the intention risks compromising the objectivity of the verification.

But considering the viewers, an explanation might be necessary.

This is a bit of demon-like cunning.

“It’s simple.

If you stand on the side of good, the wicked naturally become your enemies.

I checked whether you laid a hand on the benevolent, directly or indirectly.”

“What are you talking about!

First, you say people are trying to kill Miya, now you’re talking about Miya killing someone… That’s scary!

This isn’t a conversation two idols should be having!”

Is this about the fundamental principle that all Blooming Core Vtubers are virtual idols?

“It’s okay.

You need to pass the verification to live as an idol anyway.”

“I’ve been doing fine without receiving anything like that…”

• What happens if she doesn’t passㅋㅋ

• She’ll personally take care of herㄷㄷ

• Miya-chan, it was fun while it lasted…

• Leah-nim’s smile is chilling

• Forced smile ㄷ

Since it’s the senior’s house, my avatar is just an illustration that doesn’t reflect tracking.

It probably looks like my expression isn’t changing.

Of course, even if it did reflect, it would still be expressionless.

I’m aware that I might seem overly serious and the questions might appear a bit strange…

But I cannot show myself compromising when it comes to demons.

Especially now, when most Pias still don’t believe the RP as it is!

“Senior is in a situation where you can save a child in danger.

But at that moment.

A human who professionally hunts demons spots senior.

Will you still help?”

“How much danger is the child in?”

“At the edge of a cliff, hanging not by hand but by a precarious-looking rope.

Their life isn’t immediately in danger, but it will be soon.

However, if you help the child, senior will definitely die.”

• You can’t help in this situationㅋㅋ

• This doesn’t even qualify as a dilemma

• But she dies even if she answers wrong

• Senior will definitely die (by my hand)

• Let’s just say something nice and move onㅋㅋㅋ

“Sob… Okay.

So I have to sacrifice myself for you to accept it.

Guys.

It’s been fun.

Miya has to go save a child, so I can’t broadcast anymore…”

The senior made a sniffling sound only with her mouth, her eyes not drooping.

“You know this is a deduction, right?”

“Why?

It’s not a joke?

Miya will really save the child?”

“Yes.

If it’s not a joke, it’s even more problematic.

It looks like the hypocrisy of a demon wanting to gain favor with humans… It’s natural for everyone to value their own life the most.

Sacrificing oneself for a stranger is something only a hero like me can do.”

“That’s unfair!

I made a good choice!”

• It is unfairㅋㅋㅋ

• I feel like she would have found fault even if she answered honestlyㅋㅋ

• ??? : You’d abandon the child?

You heinous demon scum

• She just wants to bully her seniorㅋㅋ

• What’s with Leah suddenly praising herselfㅋㅋㅋ

• Self-worshipㄷㄷ

After that, questions like this.

“Senior, are you willing to apologize for the crimes committed by your kin?

If so, to what extent is possible?”

“Hmm… Maybe about a dogeza?”

“The chat just offered a good suggestion.

Is a naked dogeza possible, senior?”

“Kyaak!

Are you crazy?

Why are you reading something like that?”

“No.

Shame is a very important value.

I think it allows checking how much one can handle and take responsibility… Anyway, you won’t go that far, right?”

And also questions like this.

“Senior has been kidnapped.

And, it’s said that your blood can cure an incurable disease afflicting a hero like me.

Instead, blood must be drawn periodically for half a year.

Do you agree?”

“Isn’t asking that after kidnapping me coercion!?”

“No.

It was only like that initially due to the urgency of the situation; if senior doesn’t agree, you can leave immediately.”

“Then I can’t agree!

You said earlier that sacrificing unconditionally is actually a demon’s trick!”

“But this is also a deduction.

For a hero like me, a demon can surely invest about half a year, right?

You’re a demon anyway.”

“Leah… Are you sure this is how verification works?”

• No, seriously, what standard is she using for verificationㅋㅋㅋㅋ

• Miya, did you do something wrong to Leah?ㅋㅋ

• Ahem, this is establishing discipline

• Junior reversing the world order

• She’s really treating her like a demonㅋㅋㅋㅋ

• Why are you getting overly immersed in someone else’s RPㅋㅋㅋ

Usually, moral problems don’t have clear answers… but my questions generally did.

Because the subject is a demon, not a human.

It would be easier to answer if she was aware of being a demon herself, but it seems the RP isn’t that significant to the senior.

When the continuous questions ended, the senior looked slightly tired.

“Haa… I feel like I’m going through the Blooming interview again…”

• Miya looks a bit pitifulㅋㅋ

• Because Leah was completely seriousㅋㅋㅋ

• Listening on the radio, it really sounds like a pressure interview;;

• Didn’t they say it was their first meeting…ㅎ

“This is the last question.

If… there was an incredibly beautiful human in front of you, would you act according to your demonic instincts?

Or could you endure it?”

According to the senior’s RP, she’s a demon with very weak physical abilities, so her ability to seduce others might be developed.

“Uh, uh… I, I’ll.

Not… instinct.

I’ll try to endure.

I can endure.”

The senior showed signs of flustering while receiving many questions, but mostly her tone was exaggerated, her expression didn’t change much.

But this time, her eyes genuinely trembled faintly, showing considerable agitation.

• Leah, you sly fox

• Is she saying she herself is incredibly beautiful right now?ㅋㅋ

• Look at her tempting her senior after grilling her relentlesslyㅋㅋㅋ

• Senior, come here~!

• Miya seems genuinely flusteredㅋㅋㅋ

• Well, yeah, because her junior is blatantly flirting with herㅋㅋ

Looking at the chat, I realized the last question could be problematic.

“It’s a misunderstanding.

I hypothesized an incredibly beautiful ‘human’ in front of you.

I’m an elf.”

• Oh yeah~

• She didn’t deny being incredibly beautifulㅋㅋ

• Hah… Shall we start disciplining Leah now too?

“Then let’s move on to the next question.”

“No, you said it was the last one, Leah?”

“My explanation was insufficient.

The questions about senior’s choices are over.

Now, it’s personal information.”

“Personal information??”

There’s an important issue.

I asked questions to verify the senior’s morality, but what should I do if she ultimately fails?

Moreover, the senior’s answers right now haven’t been very good.

I evaluated each answer, so the viewers can also infer the final result to some extent.

If the senior had resisted, I would have had to subjugate her… But if she cooperated so readily yet failed purely due to incompetence.

I need to provide an escape route.

Since we’ll be interacting as senior and junior in the future too.

“Honestly, your benevolence was a bit lacking.

But perhaps because of the demons I’ve seen, I was strict even with a demon from ‘another world’.”

“What does that mean?”

“Senior.

What is the name for the demon world?”

“…The demon world is the demon world?

Do I have to call it something else?”

“Were there standards for dividing regions within the demon world?

What was the region where senior lived called?”

• ㅋㅋㅋ Forcing RP on her senior too

• People usually don’t build settings that detailedㅋㅋ

• But it feels like a familiar? question somehow

• Seriously, where have I seen this before?

“Right.

Miya is feeling déjà vu right now too…”

“Please answer the question first.

The demon world senior lived in wasn’t Mordus, the demon world from my place, right?”

“Ah, the place Leah lived.

No, it’s not.”

“Then senior has never committed crimes such as murder, robbery, arson, plunder, molestation, brainwashing, fraud, or theft in the demon world you lived in.”

“…Isn’t that obvious?”

“Good.

Although your benevolence is lacking.

I will observe you further.”

The senior, who had been replying weakly with a slightly dazed expression, didn’t answer at all this time.

“…Senior?”

The senior looked up, her eyes sparkling as if she had gained enlightenment.

“Right!

Curious Elf!

That was the nickname!”

Right.

That was the ID I used for a while when I was donating to various Vtubers.

“Hehe, Leah.

You got banned from my channel once, right?”

“You even remember the nickname from so long ago.”

“Yes.

It was such a peculiar question, and besides my channel, you were going around donating to other Vtubers, so it came up in the member chatroom too!”

• What are you talking about, why would Leah get banned?

• Ah, is it that maybeㅋㅋㅋ

• Wow, legend legend legendㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

• Then did Leah bully her senior because of resentment from getting banned?ㅎ

• Why are you guys talking about something only you know…

• What is it, let us in too!!!!

“Ah, everyone.

Leah got banned from my channel once for spamming excessive donation messages?

Of course, I didn’t know it was Leah back then~ The nickname was Curious Elf.

But do you know why she got banned?

It was because she kept asking the same questions as just now!”

• Huhㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

• She was interested in RP even back thenㅋㅋㅋ

• Prepared talentㄷ

• But why does she like elves so muchㅋㅋ

• The nickname is really honestㅋㅋ

• Curious (about other RPs) Elf (my planned RPㅎ)

“That’s right.

Senior was a bit harsh.”

“Sorry Leah~ I’m answering now instead!”

• Meaning the ban was originally justified…

• Curious Elf-nim, please hold back~

• Leah is getting many namesㅋㅋ

• She even acknowledged Choeun recently

• Is it Leah, Choeun, KungEl (Curious Elf), and ‘That Long One’?

• Four Names (Japan)

• Real Name Paramugson (Iceland)

• Elves can do anything (Germany)

• Not just one or two names (Netherlands)

• Memorizing them all is Mourinho (Portugal)

• RP-eh Jivchake (Serbia)

• Everyone’s creativity is insaneㅋㅋㅋ

“I only have one name!

Please think of the others as just different titles.”

To find a way to tease me in a completely unexpected situation.

Somehow, I felt like the Pias were also getting better.
