Chapter 124: Are you a career professional?

Even though I was scammed, it wasn’t a big deal.

It’s not like the work I have to do changes.

Digging up land, picking fruit, making things, fishing… It was all stuff I had to do anyway, and I hand over the points I get from these actions to Representative Tom Nook.

That’s how this game is. In some ways, it’s no different from the Minecraft I played before.

No, it’s even more so. That game lets you go on adventures and even fight dragons, but this is a truly peaceful game.

I definitely knew that when I picked it up and started playing, but I lost interest faster than I thought.

“This is boring…”

[Lol, I knew it]
[That’s what this game is like;]
[What were you expecting?]
[The streamer should stick to games where she kills people with guns, ㅇㅇ]
[The popular game chosen by women in their 20s, Animal Crossing, gets cut off by Mollru]

That’s right, what the viewers said before I started the game wasn’t an exaggeration.

They couldn’t picture Mollru enjoying this game normally.

They said that someone who ran a gambling den instead of doing architecture in Minecraft would never play like that.

Is that really the case? Have I also become addicted to stimulating content like my viewers?

Did I want a tense battlefield where lives are at stake with the slightest mistake, or a game that releases dopamine just by looking at it?

If so, I can’t enjoy Animal Crossing. I should quit right away and find another game.

That’s what I was thinking when.

-If you’re really like that, make a bug-catching net and beat up the residents

“You can hit the residents?”

[Yeah, with a bug-catching net]
[Sudden interest]
[Why did her voice suddenly brighten?]
[The violence goat]
[I’m scared ㅠㅠ]
[It seems like I can already see the future of the residents]

It’s not like I hadn’t thought about the idea that came in the donation.

I tried talking to the residents as they passed by, and when they turned around, I tried to swing the tree branch in my hand through interaction.

But I only did a strange motion and didn’t actually swing the branch at the residents.

So, I thought there was no such violent function in the first place.

I found out that I needed a bug-catching net.

Suddenly interested, I quickly crafted a bug-catching net.

I swung it at a resident walking around the island.

-Ouch! What, what are you doing, kweaek? It was a mistake…? I hope you don’t do that again. Kweaek.

Oh ho. Such a reaction.

The option of quitting the game was erased from my head.

It seems like I have something to do on this island after all.

[At this point, I’m starting to feel sorry for them]
[I’m getting PTSD, please stop]
[Moll-boongs are reminiscing about their school days, kekㅋㅋㅋㅋ]
[What’s with the avatar shaking and the laughter?]
[If you had the cam on, it would have been really creepy]
[It’s a reward for them, these guys are just exaggerating]
[‘True madness’]

-You’re going too far, kweaek-! You did it on purpose, don’t lie, kweaek-!

Even to the viewers who told me to take the smile off my face, I couldn’t stop giggling. What can I do if it’s funny?

“This has a subtle taste to it. If you get too close, they’ll talk to you,
so you have to adjust the distance, and if you go too far,
the bug-catching net won’t reach, so you have to calculate the range… You need some kiting skills.”

[Please don’t use your kiting skills for this]
[Why are you analyzing that?]
[Ah ㅋㅋ She’s swinging it after calculating everything]

<KweaekIsPitiable donated 10,000 won!>
-If you keep hitting them, they might get kicked out of the island ㅇㅇ You have to hit them moderately

“Ah, they get kicked out of the island? That’s not good. This is the most fun I’ve had so far.”
[No, they don’t get kicked out]
[Rather, Kweaek will run away somewhere else]
[I know that they move out if their affinity drops]
[They don’t move out just because you hit them with a bug-catching net;; Don’t troll]

To sum it up, residents have to have worries to have a chance to move out, but hitting them with a bug-catching net doesn’t create worries.

I could swing the bug-catching net with peace of mind.

“Hitting them where they can’t see!”

[Finger gun!]
[Your finger gun hurts the most~]
[Six King Gun!]
[Seriously, the ways she torments them are so varied lol]
[Hit them harder, full swing]
[Kweaek is dying ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]
[The National Duck Association will remember this…]

-Kweaek-! Stop it, I’m really going to get angry, kweaek-!

Kweaek, with a reddened face, huffed and puffed and raised its tail.

For reference, Kweaek is the name I gave it. It had its own name, but it seemed more fitting to add the sound “kweaek” to the end of every sentence.

I lightly ignored the viewers who were exaggerating and calling it a name change.

“How did he know I was hitting him when he couldn’t see me? He’s more sensitive than I thought.”

I joked like that and continued talking.

“But did Kweaek just get angry at me? I was just joking…”

[Gasp]
[Hey, are you really angry?]
[Why are you like that? We were just playing]
[Can’t friends even joke around?]
[Why are you getting serious when it’s a joke;]
[Kweaek is angry, everyone]
[I’m too scared to joke around lololol]
[These guys are scarier ㅅㅂ]
[I’ve heard that line a lot…]

“Well, if you don’t like it… I don’t like people who don’t like me either. I’m not playing with you.”

I moved away from Kweaek, picking up cherries and tree branches, and then slowly approached again.

But Kweaek’s condition was a little strange.

“What’s that spinning around above its head?”

A blue sphere was spinning around above Kweaek’s head, and it was clear that it wasn’t in good condition.

[It’s depressed]
[Depression inducer Mollru]
[What should we do with Kweaek ㅠㅠ]
[This person is really bad]

“It’s because it’s depressed? It’s true that it’s less energetic than before.

Seeing it walking around with its head down like that makes me feel a little sorry.”

[A little sorry (while continuing to swing the bug-catching net)]
[Are you a psychopath?]
[Psycho Mollru ㄷㄷ]
[First day after moving in… The neighbor is a little strange]

-Leave me alone, kweaek…

“Leave you alone? Don’t talk to you? Was I the only one having fun?”

[Ah lol, it’s sulking]
[It’s sulking, it’s sulking]
[It’s crying, it’s crying lol]
[Is the streamer a veteran? Why is it so realistic?]
[Just by looking at Mollru’s face, you can tell she’s at the top of the school caste]
[If it was in school days, I wouldn’t be able to make eye contact and would secretly peek at her ㅇㅇ;]
[Lol ㄹㅇ]

“A veteran? What veteran? I was a complete model student.”

Well, I’ve never seen Ji-eun’s student record, but she probably was.

If she had been bullying people at school, she would have already been buried.

And if she was a bully, she wouldn’t have any contact information for her school friends in her phone book.

<BullyMollru donated 10,000 won!>
-Thank you Mollru, it’s all thanks to you. I’m not even surprised by this situation anymore

That’s a line I remember. It was a drama that my mother and Ji-yeon were watching with interest when I went to my parents’ house a while ago.

It was about a protagonist who was bullied at school taking revenge on the bullies.

I was really shocked at the scene where they burned her arm with a curling iron.

Along with the thought that kids these days are really scary.

Because the story was realistic and stimulating, I, who don’t usually watch dramas, watched a few episodes with my family before leaving.

“Uh… but who are you?”

I decided to match the situation with a few lines that viewers remember.

[I’m someone who was in the same class as you…]
[Hello Mollru, I’m a Moll-boong, do you remember me?]

“Ah, ah… Moll-boong. Long time no see. Nice to see you. Your vibe has changed a bit?”

<Mollboong1 donated 10,000 won!>
-You’re still the same. The things you do are still the same as before

“Well, I’m pretty much the same. But what do you mean by the same as before?”

<ThePerpetratorDoesntRemember donated 10,000 won!>
-Why, you used to bully kids, me too… Seeing you bullying Kweaek? It makes me think you’re the same as before

“That was something I did when I was immature in school, Moll-boong. Why are you so angry?”

As expected of a popular drama, most of the viewers seemed to know the content and lines. I enjoyed the role-playing and continued to immerse myself in it.

“What, are you doing this now to get a sincere apology? How old are we now to be saying things like that. It’s already past. Huh? What do you want me to do now?”

[The streamer is a veteran lololol]
[Please stop please stop please stop please stop]
[Do you remember Kim Jin-woo, class 6, grade 2 at Hwahong High School? You’ve probably completely forgotten about it, but I’m still struggling because of you]
[It reminds me of the old days…]
[Tears are streaming down my face, teacher ㅠㅠ]
[Mollru/Controversy/School Violence Allegations]
[Is the streamer really a bully?]

“I’m not.”

I continued the stream with ridiculous allegations that I was a bully.
