Chapter 6: Escaping The Room After 2 Years!

At first, I hesitated a little.

I hesitated once when she asked if I could explain, and the second time was when she asked if she could have my phone number.

But I thought if I did nothing, something really bad could happen to Inaring, so I found the courage.

Gulp-

I gave Inaring my phone number.

And right after.

Ring-ring-ring-

A call came from my smartphone.

Lee Nahee, as a gamer herself, had encountered many hackers and understood their mindset.

To explain it very briefly and simply, those b*stards have absolutely no conscience.

They have no conscience and are extremely shameless, naturally telling lies like it’s nothing.

That’s why Lee Nahee couldn’t relax until she saw the Charging Knight’s face in person.

‘Please answer, please……….’

The ringing lasted quite a while.

What if I gave her my number and it turns out to be the wrong person?

Or what if it is her, but she acts shamelessly like a typical hacker?

The longer the ringing went on, the more anxiety crept in.

Hoping it wasn’t the case, Lee Nahee waited like she was praying for the Charging Knight to answer the call.

And then,

Click-

‘She answered!’

She actually answered!

Lee Nahee hurriedly opened her mouth.

“Hello? Are you Charging Knight?”

-Uh, th-th-th-that,

That was the moment.

“…..Huh?”

Is the connection bad?

Her voice is quiet and hard to hear, and it keeps cutting out.

Plus, the tone of her voice is thin, almost like…

‘A woman’s voice?’

The moment she realized that, Lee Nahee unconsciously made a blank expression.

‘Could it be……….’

To confirm her guess, Lee Nahee spoke once again.

“H-hello?”

-Ah, yes. Ah, hellooo…………

“Gasp!?”

Sh-she’s really a woman!?

“Wait, Charging Knight, you were a woman!?”

-Y-yes……

Oh my god………., the Charging Knight who had been tormenting her for five months was a woman…….

And why is her tone so frail?

Her voice and tone were completely different from the image Lee Nahee had of the Charging Knight.

Unable to believe it, she asked again.

“A-are you really Charging Knight?”

-Y-yes……

“Wow…, seriously. I never expected such a twist.”

I guess you really do see everything after living a long life.

Anyway, that’s not the important thing right now.

Lee Nahee immediately got to the point.

“About that, Charging Knight.”

-Y-yes….

“You said earlier that you could explain, right?”

-Ah, yes!

She spoke timidly, but her voice rose with courage when asking the question just now.

At least I know that she’s determined to explain.

‘Whew……, that’s a relief.’

At least from her tone of voice and the way she speaks, she doesn’t seem like a real hacker.

It’s strange to think she’s a hacker when she’s showing her willingness to explain.

“That’s good then. First, have you thought of a way to explain?”

-Um… with a hand cam………….

“U-um……”

Can she really explain it with a hand cam?

Of course, there were many streamers suspected of hacking who explained with a hand cam, but I didn’t think it was a sure way.

Lee Nahee thought for a moment and opened her mouth.

“Um………, instead of that, can I make a suggestion?”

-A s-suggestion?

“Yes. Given the situation, I think people will want a clear explanation. So, um………, if you’re okay with it-“

Lee Nahee was a little nervous here.

Would Charging Knight accept this suggestion or not?

Still, there’s no clearer explanation than this.

Lee Nahee opened her mouth.

“Could you come to our studio and explain?”

Silence.

Silence fell.

As if frozen by the suggestion, nothing could be heard.

‘Is it not going to work………….’

Lee Nahee couldn’t help but feel deflated at Charging Knight’s reaction.

Honestly, I don’t want to think like this, but if she refuses this suggestion, I’ll have no choice but to think of her as a hacker.

But then, an unexpected question came from her.

-U-um, will Inaring also be there during the explanation broadcast?

“Yes? Since I’m planning to do the broadcast from my studio, I’ll be there-“

-Then I’ll do it!

“Huh? R-really?”

-Yes. If Naring-nim is there, I’ll do it.

Hearing the answer, Lee Nahee opened her mouth without realizing it.

Honestly, I expected it to some extent given her actions over the past five months.

This person, this person is also a true Nyaring?

“Wahahaha! Thank you, Charging Knight! Then when would be a good time? The sooner the better.”

-U-um, I’m okay anytime.

“Is that so? Then since we’re on the topic, how about today?”

-O-oh, today?

“
-J-just a moment.

I’ll let you know the studio address. Is that okay?” Yes.

Ha Nammi hesitated for a moment at Inaring’s suggestion.

‘Oh, today? Would today be okay?’

In reality, a NEET has no schedule.

She was just nervous and hesitating for a moment.

Of course, Ha Nammi herself also thinks that the sooner the better.

Having made that decision, Ha Nammi opened her mouth.

-O-okay. O-oh, I’ll come today.

“Yes. I understand. Then let’s meet at 1 p.m. then!”

-Y-yes……

Beep-

After the call ended, Ha Nammi blankly stared for a moment.

“……”

Inaring in person……….

As a hardcore fan who inherently loves her, exposing her true self is disqualifying.

Ha Nammi couldn’t resist.

‘How can I resist this.’

Her favorite Oshi asked her to meet.

It’s strange not to be able to resist.

‘Hehe, what should I talk about first when I meet her?’

Should I get an autograph first?

Ha Nammi unknowingly wore a happy smile.

‘Right, I’ll get an autograph first and th-then have a fun conversation-‘

And at that moment.

“Huh?”

A situation occurred.

The Time Click screen suddenly logged out.

“Wh-why is it suddenly logging out………oh?”

And the message that appeared in the center of the screen caught her eye.

The message read:

[This account has been temporarily suspended.]

“Ah……”

The moment she saw that message, she was able to understand the situation.

Looks like I…, got banned.

---

Two years of only being a room-bound NEET.

I was getting ready to go outside for the first time in two years.

‘Ugh, um……’

But when it comes to clothes……, there’s no way I’d have anything to wear in the first place.

I’ve been living in my room for a whole two years, so what, do I have anything to wear to go out in.

‘Still, it’s the first time I’m meeting Inaring, so I want to look normal.’

All I have is a white t-shirt.

And comfortable dolphin shorts.

Here, I was able to see another difference from the world when I was a man.

I used to only wear shorts, but those shorts had turned into dolphin shorts like this.

I had no choice but to go out in this outfit.

I put on my wallet, phone, and hat, and left the room.

“Ssip- Hoo……”

After taking a deep breath because I was nervous, I was about to leave when.

What in the world!?”

“N-Nammiya, what a surprise!”

“S,

“Ye, yes!?”

“Are you going somewhere? The convenience store? No, even when you went to the convenience store, you’d sneak out when no one was

there-“

My mother, who was in the kitchen, suddenly looked at me and was shocked.

“Na“,

I was also flustered.

I didn’t expect my mother to be so surprised.

No, come to think of it, I only went out when no one was home when I opened the door?

I had a conscience, so I didn’t have the face to see my parents.

‘Ah…, I went out without thinking too much…………’

I was just so happy to meet Inaring that I didn’t pay attention.

I forgot that my mother was home.

I scratched my head and replied.

“That is,

I have something to do outside.”

“Something to do?”

“I’m meeting someone I know.”

“What in the world!?”

My mother covered her mouth with surprised eyes.

I, is it so surprising that I’m going to meet someone I know?

“Really? Are you going to meet a friend?”

Not a friend.

But if I said no, she might stop me saying I’m meeting someone I don’t know.

I nodded silently.

Then my mother, with a more moved face, came up to me and started hugging me.

“Oogut!”

“Oh my god. Our daughter.”

Because I was short, I was hugged as if I was buried in my mother’s body.

Ugh, still, my height used to be around 170…………

It really hits me that I’ve become a woman.

“Our

Our daughter had friends.”

“Oh, um……”

Friends……, there’s no way I’d have any.

How could I have friends when I’ve been living in my room for two years?

Still, looking at my mother’s face, I couldn’t say no.

I didn’t think my mother would be so happy.

‘My mother hasn’t changed much?’

Whether I was a man or now, my mother hasn’t changed much.

My mother was the one who took care of me the most out of my family.

That’s what my mother said.

“

Where are you planning to meet?”

“

Huh?”

“

So that Mom can give you a ride.”

“Ah, you don’t have to do that……”

“Ssip- don’t talk back. It’s because Mom is worried.”

After saying that much, it was hard for me to refuse.

Honestly, should I say I was a little drawn to it?

I was going to take the bus or taxi in this body, but I’m still afraid to go out alone.

I nodded and said.

“Th, then to here………….”
