    Chapter 48: Padlip makes Kim Cheong-ha dance

    After settling my symbol and everything.

    “Let’s just stream like this today.”

    Since I turned the stream on anyway.

    I decided to just broadcast at this time today.

    I feel a bit sorry for the viewers who might be at work, but turning off the stream now and turning it on again later feels a bit much.

    -Oh finally

    -Right, no way she just came to solicit donations.

    -As expected of the Captain!

    -She had a plan all along!

    -No black cows working right now, right?

    -Republic of Korea Home Security Guards, assemble!

    [Anonymous donated 5,000 Won]

    -Is a singing stream possible?

    “Ah, a singing stream…?”

    The inevitable has arrived.

    Seeing the chat, Cheongha quietly swallowed her saliva.

    “Sorry. A singing stream probably won’t work.”

    Thanks to my vocal cords seemingly following my voice actress’s, my range is wide, but singing openly still makes me a bit conscious.

    -Ah, too bad.

    -Your voice sounds like it would be really good for singing though.

    -Streamer’s voice is better than most voice actors.

    -Such wasted talent..

    -By any chance, are you bad at singing?

    “No, it’s not that I can’t, it’s just not the right situation to sing right now.”

    Still, the day to sing again will probably come eventually.

    Setting aside the topic of singing, which I couldn’t do anyway, I decided to proceed with the game broadcast.

    ‘Maybe FPS is the safe bet for now?’

    But playing only that might get boring.

    Playing Titan Hunter wouldn’t be right either, since it’s a story-driven game; it seems better to play it later in the evening when everyone arrives.

    “Should we try spinning the wheel this time?”

    Well, I don’t particularly like that genre, but what the heck.

    -Streamer, can you handle that?

    -The chat toxicity there is no joke…

    -Streamer, will you be okay?

    -RoL is good.

    -Go go.

    Due to it being quite a famous game here as well, the chat quickly responded.

    Let’s see, about 70% against and 30% in favor?

    “Still, you have to taste it first to know if it’s a landmine or not.”

    There’s a reason parents tell you to try eating something before deciding.

    Of course, I don’t have parents like that, but still.

    -No hyung… stop…

    -Teacher, some things in the world look like bombs at first glance.

    -Why, isn’t she a newbie?

    -They’re just gonna beat her down with parent-insults again.

    -But considering the streamer’s impression, it might surprisingly be okay?

    -No, streamer looks tough but is actually soft.

    -Remember the fainting incident, you guys lol

    “Ah, so parent-insults are the problem?”

    What, that’s actually quite mild.

    No, rather, thank you.

    Why refuse when others offer to insult my parents for me?

    ‘Actually, this is great.’

    I should install it right away.

    Cheongha immediately accessed the site.


    Ruler of Legend.

    A time-honored game that has firmly held the number 1 spot in PC bang computer usage for over a decade.

    However, contrary to its fame, the game’s image itself wasn’t very good.

    Bugs and balance collapse.

    Being an old game, it had many inherent problems, but if you had to pick the single biggest issue.

    =[No, you fcking motherless btch, what are you doing]

    It would be the dirty chat window overflowing with profanity.

    Due to the nature of team games, blaming others was always common, but this game was particularly severe thanks to its immense popularity.

    I’ve never played this game myself, but I’ve certainly heard of its notoriety.

    -Ugh ew

    -Already disgusting.

    -No, that guy messed up too, why is he blaming others?

    -This game is always like this…

    -Ah, my PTSD is kicking in…

    -Kill that guy.

    At the sight of the in-game chat starting with immediate insults, the viewers began to freak out.

    “Well, it can happen.”

    There are plenty of people in Japan who bet their lives on games too.

    Mainly in horse racing.

    Of course, this probably isn’t on the same level as horse racing, but if you focus on the game, it’s certainly possible.

    Isn’t this level actually quite mild?

    -But why is the streamer smiling?

    -Don’t tell me ㄷㄷ

    -Kim Cheongha / Unfilial daughter controversy

    -Kim Cheongha… M… Memo…

    “No, I wasn’t smiling?”

    Oops, my expression must have leaked through the avatar without me realizing.

    Still lacking as a pro streamer.

    I need to be careful.

    ‘Ah, but how can I hold this back?’

    Even as I kept reminding myself.

    I couldn’t hide the smile creeping onto my lips.

    Seriously, those people still occasionally show up in my dreams asking for money!

    Anyway, those people deserve to be insulted like this.

    =[Yeah your mom’s a prostitute]

    =[Yes, thank you. I’ll do better from now on.]

    After sending a message of thanks to the teammate who spent precious time delivering a refreshing insult on my behalf.

    Cheongha grabbed the mouse again.

    To be able to insult someone like that using only facts, Korea really is an amazing country.

    How long had passed while continuously playing the game like this?

    I slowly started feeling uncomfortable points.

    -But hyung, why aren’t you using Flash?

    -Ah, this is a bit…

    -This is really frustrating, actually.

    “Maybe because I’ve only been playing FPS games lately, I just can’t get used to it.”

    Cheongha muttered, looking at her character that had died yet again.

    Since I’ve been playing Golden Watch so frequently lately, going to the respawn point after dying has become a habit.

    The name itself implies it, right?

    Isn’t dying the normal way to get there?

    The problem wasn’t just that.

    “…..What should I buy from this shop?”

    After finally returning to the respawn area after dying, items I didn’t understand at all filled the shop window.

    What’s this sword?

    What’s that ring?

    And this… arrows?

    There were archer characters here too?

    Well, I’ll have to look this up online later.

    =[Fcking btch]

    “…..That seems to be crossing the line slowly.”

    Perhaps annoyed by my continuously calm reactions, the intensity of the insults gradually started increasing.

    Going beyond simple insults about parents, to personal attacks against me.

    And the most dangerous chat message was separate.

    =[No, are your ancestors pro-Japanese collaborators, you fcker? Turn off the fcking game, you idiot b*tch]

    “…..?”

    ….What, how should I handle this?

    Cold sweat automatically flowed from my forehead.

    [Chat system blocked]

    Saying one wrong word here felt like it could lead straight to ruin, so I quickly went into the settings and blocked that user immediately.

    Now that person can’t send me chats anymore.

    Alright, nobody saw anything.

    -What

    -??? Damn fast

    -Chat block block, for real?

    -Streamer knows what’s up after all.

    -No, is this person being Japanese really just a concept?

    -Like, for real.

    -Why does this person know Korea so well?

    -Alright, whose land is Dokdo?

    Alright, I am harmless.

    Harmless.

    Smiling as brightly as possible, I continued the broadcast.

    “Yes, Dokdo is Korean territory.”

    “If you say anything else unrelated to the broadcast, I’ll ban you.”

    I may look like this, but in my past life, I was strictly Korean.

    Would I, of all people, defend Japan?

    Nationality or whatever, you have to criticize what needs criticizing.

    ‘Really want to find a chat moderator…..’

    It was tiring having to ban the unleashed trolls one by one after so long.

    ‘If I ask the VIP, he’d probably do it…..’

    The thought briefly entered my mind, but I had to shake my head immediately.

    Being a chat moderator is time-consuming work anyway.

    Since you have to be present in the streamer’s broadcast almost every day, it’s better if you have plenty of money and time.

    Why would I ruin the life of a busy third-year high school kid?

    And looking at the censored chats, there must be many unpleasant things; how can I show those to a kid?

    I’ll just have to do it myself.

    After handing out temporary bans to a few troublemakers, I continued the game.

    Those people will probably return to normal once they calm down a bit.

    “Anyway, let me just buy something that looks good.”

    Quickly opening the shop, I bought a blue sword that looked strong.

    This seems good, its attack power is high too.

    -Huh? B.F. Sword?

    -What, does she even know what that is before buying?

    -Maybe just buy something else…

    -That one is good too, but…

    -Isn’t she spending too much money at once?

    -Guys, backseating is bannable, just watch for now.

    -She’ll manage somehow.

    -Don’t trust hyung?

    ‘Hmm, I just bought it because the attack power was high.’

    Seeing the reactions, it didn’t seem like a particularly good item.

    What is it, is the evolution tree bad?

    Still, with the feeling of ‘Well, I bought it, let’s try using it,’ I equipped the sword.

    “Let me try going in once.”

    I have to make use of it somehow.

    I spent all my money buying this.

    Since it’s a melee dealer, it should at least pull its weight.

    「With a single strike!」

    Returning to the battlefield, I swung the sword towards the enemy minions currently engaged in combat.

    Slice-!

    Hmm, it certainly cuts much more satisfyingly than before.

    Money is definitely accumulating well too.

    Just as I was deliciously farming gold.

    Kiiiing-

    An enemy champion quickly rushed over from the other side.

    Tadadak-!

    “Ah, wait a minute. My bad.”

    At the enemy’s frantic attacks, I retreated backward unconsciously.

    -No, engage!

    -You’re melee lol

    -You can’t escape with that anyway, so just hit them.

    Since dodging bullets has become a habit, I ended up retreating without thinking.

    The attacks I barely managed to land dissipated without hitting the enemy.

    -No, don’t run away lol

    -This person is definitely a beginner.

    -Ah, comfortable.

    -Knew this would happen.

    “…..I don’t think I can play this game.”

    Now that I look at it, the chat isn’t the problem; the game genre itself just doesn’t suit me well.
