Chapter 24: Streamer!

I returned to reality with the skills of a streamer.

Originally, Devil Fruits allowed only one power to be used per fruit, and with the Copy-Copy Fruit, it was possible to only use one ability from the copied fruit.

But after returning to reality, I realized that those restrictions had been lifted.

However, it seemed like the power of the Devil Fruit had also faded somewhat.

“…Hmm… the abilities are gone, but the foundation remains.”

With the Song-Song Fruit, it was about improving one’s singing ability, making the tone better.

The Sound-Sound Fruit allowed for deeper sounds and increased talent with instruments.

The Slippery-Slippery Fruit improved the skin and body shape.

The Fascination-Fascination Fruit enhanced atmosphere and behaviour.

It felt as though my appearance had improved, making it seem like my beauty had reached the next level. I was already a great beauty, but now it had gone even further…

‘…Thinking about it, if I keep adding different avatars’ appearances to my own, my face will keep changing. Would it be okay to reveal that on a stream…?’

As I was examining the slight improvements to my appearance, such thoughts crossed my mind, and I began to feel concerned.

Suddenly, a system message popped up before my eyes with a “ding.”

The same hologram window I saw when I awakened to the game lifestyle appeared and offered a solution to my worries.

[Would you like to fix your current appearance as the default?]

“Fix it?”

[Fixing means making your current appearance the base form. When adding avatars’ appearances, only part of the avatar’s features will be added, and the overall form will remain the base form. Additionally, if you return to reality, the system can adjust the changes, smoothing over them.]

“…So, you’re saying it’s okay to reveal this appearance to the public?”

[That’s correct.]

I hesitated for a moment but soon agreed that keeping this appearance as my base would pose no problem.

Both of my chosen avatars had black hair, and the eyes were a mix of azure and violet—slightly unusual, but still fundamentally Asian, with a base color of black.

Therefore, blending the two could still be considered appropriate for an East Asian look, especially for a Korean person.

This felt like the best option.

If I mixed in silver, blonde, or red eyes, I might be mistaken for a foreigner.

So, I nodded decisively, deciding to set my current appearance as the base form.

[Your current appearance has been set as the default base. Further changes to your appearance will be limited unless you unlock the option to modify it.]

The system message disappeared, leaving me with a final piece of advice.

“…Worry about my appearance is over. The only thing left is…”

Is it just my debut?

I paused and considered when to start my streaming career.

My bank account had about 1 million won left. It was clear that I needed to start earning money before that ran out…

‘I’ll debut tomorrow as soon as I wake up.’

I thought, but my confidence didn’t waver. With my beauty, I was confident I could attract viewers with ease.

Plus, my singing skills had improved dramatically with the Song-Song Fruit, so if I did a singing stream, I would be golden.

However, there was one problem…

“Clothes are the issue.”

I muttered to myself as I looked at my outfit. I only had men’s clothes, and I wasn’t even wearing any underwear.

The loose t-shirt was exposing my cleavage and shoulders, and the pants didn’t fit, leaving me essentially in an almost naked state.

This… wasn’t something I could go out and buy right now…

‘I’ll have to order them.’

I decided to order clothes online.

This would pretty much empty my bank account, so I really needed to start earning money soon.

With that in mind, I decided to clean my room thoroughly for the next day.

The Next Day

“…Almost done.”

The next day, I looked at the delivery that had arrived: a new computer, microphone, camera, and the clothes I ordered.

It was time for my debut stream.

I glanced around my room.

Originally, it had been a messy, musty room where a single man lived, but after spending a day cleaning, it now looked like something from a model home.

With the enhanced strength from this body, I could lift heavy furniture effortlessly and clean the space.

Whether it was because of my feminine sensitivity or the inherent talent in this body, I also had a knack for tidying up and interior design.

I’d seen a few posts on interior design, and with a little effort, I could transform a space into a refreshing environment.

I had cleaned the wallpaper well enough that I could remove the old stains with a special cleaner, and the white walls looked as fresh as if I had just moved in.

‘The soundproof booth was difficult, but I’ll manage. Singing won’t be an issue.’

I was satisfied with the newly transformed room and began setting up my computer in the place I had prepared for it.

“Is there a good stream I can watch…”

He muttered to himself, scrolling through Twitch during his lunch break.

He usually worked at a desk job, and during his free time, he liked to listen to live broadcasts.

Listening to songs was fine, but what he really enjoyed were streams where the host interacted with viewers and performed live.

It felt like a conversation, which helped him alleviate his loneliness.

He never actually subscribed or donated, content to just listen as an anonymous viewer.

He wasn’t keen on spending money on streams.

Since no one he followed was streaming, he browsed through Twitch, hoping to find a good singing broadcast.

Then, he spotted a stream that caught his eye.

[Debut] A Singing Stream Debut Today

“Debut today?”

He couldn’t resist clicking on it. The thumbnail hadn’t been set yet, so it was just a gray image, but he clicked anyway.

When the stream loaded, his jaw dropped.

“Hello, ‘Wolru Likes’! Thank you for joining today’s debut stream.”

The voice that penetrated his ears was mesmerizing.

The face on screen, though small due to the thumbnail, was incredibly beautiful—so beautiful, in fact, that he had to double-check whether she was real or if it was some AI-generated image.

She looked unreal.

Her flawless white skin, a small V-line face, delicate features, and long, silky black hair were all stunning.

The black T-shirt was tight around her chest, with the neckline low enough to reveal a hint of cleavage. A thin belt around her waist accentuated her curves.

She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, far surpassing any idols or actresses he’d ever come across.

For a few minutes, he just stared, unable to type anything.

‘Could a beauty like this really exist in real life?’

He thought to himself, his doubt clouding his judgment.

After all, the latest editing filters could make anyone look stunning.

Then, someone named “RiRiRi” commented the same thing, and the streamer responded to clear up the doubt.

[‘RiRiRi’ has joined the chat]

-???? Is this really your real appearance? Not a filter???

“Hello, ‘RiRiRi’. It’s not a filter. If you want proof… I could show you the task manager, or maybe just shake my head for you.”

-Quickly shake your head. If it’s a filter, it’ll be obvious.

“Alright.”

She immediately nodded in confirmation, and as she did, her appearance didn’t change. It was clear she wasn’t using a filter.

However, instead of worrying about the filter, both he and RiRiRi were captivated by her beauty.

As she shook her head, the motion of her chest caught their attention like a black hole.

-Wow… This morphing can’t be a filter. I’m convinced, goddess.

-Thank you so much.

After a moment, he found himself typing the same thing, and RiRiRi seemed to have had the same thought.

How could anyone not be entranced by such an appearance?

Even if it was fake, he would believe it was real. That’s how stunning her transformation was.

“Thank you for understanding, and just so you know, as long as you don’t cross the line, I’m okay with whatever you chat.”

-Understood!! -Thank you!

“Alright, I’ve been streaming for about 5 minutes now. I’ll wait another 10 minutes, and then we’ll start the singing.”

“…How well will she sing?”

He clicked the follow button, eagerly awaiting her beautiful voice and wondering how good she was at singing.

He continued watching the stream, wishing lunch time would never end.
