Misunderstanding (11)

“No way!”

“Is that so…?”

“This is absolutely not okay!”

As soon as Pinku-unni connected through Anna-unni’s connector in the next room, and as soon as I told her the title I had in mind, Pinku-unni freaked out and said it wasn’t okay.

Living as a man, being a guild leader and raid leader a few times, I thought I was quick to read other people’s minds and moods, but lately, I’ve realized that the things I think and the things that actually happen are flowing quite differently.

‘Is it because I’m so influenced by Arang-i?’

I know that my mental age has been dropping a lot recently. But that’s beyond my control.

I only sleep, eat, play games, and get massages, so there’s no way my intelligence will go up. Even if it does go up, only my game intelligence goes up, and my real-world intelligence can only go down.

When I think about it, I know almost nothing about this world.

What kind of jobs are there, what do schools look like, is there still a military, is it unified…?

‘Oh… thinking about it like this, I really don’t know anything?’

Ah, I know one thing. There’s a Mom’s Touch brand?

‘Hmm… I guess the big thing is that I don’t really need to know.’

“Arang-a, shall we start…?”

“Huh? Yeah…!”

All sorts of random thoughts disappeared at Pinku-unni’s words.

When I was a man, once I started thinking like this, I would endlessly fall into a swamp, spending the day wallowing in depressing thoughts.

‘But I don’t do that anymore. This must be Arang-i’s pure influence, right?’

The important thing is not to cause an accident…!

A huge accident like this one shouldn’t happen again.

“3, 2, 1.”

Ttiriring.

Before starting the broadcast, Pinku-unni had 미리 posted about the broadcast on the fan cafe, so this time too, as soon as I turned on the broadcast, the number of viewers increased like crazy.

-Huh? Why is Arang-i there?

-Arang-a…

-Ah… could this be a video Arang-i left before she died?

-Ah, I guess that’s it… Arang-a… I hope you live well in heaven.

-Let’s live happily in heaven!

-It’s so sad. That such a young and cute child had to die…

-If there’s a God, I really want to punch him in the face.

As expected, people are thinking of me on the broadcast not as a live broadcast, but as a kind of will I filmed before I died.

In that short amount of time, I was already a dead person, and the viewers weren’t even thinking that I was alive.

“Everyone… hello…”

Starting with my greeting, the viewers started to grieve, using crying emoticons or words expressing crying.

“Everyone, you might think I’m dead… but actually, that broadcast you saw… it wasn’t that I died, but just that I fell asleep… I’m sorry for making everyone misunderstand…”

This time, I tried my best not to say the words directly, but slowly, and after thinking a few times, I spoke so that people wouldn’t misunderstand anymore.

I bowed towards the camera.

While everyone was grieving at Arang-i’s apology, they doubted their ears.

Will. They thought it was a video Arang-i left before she died, but the words coming out of Arang-i’s mouth were not about before death, but about after death.

Misunderstanding, sorry.

As soon as those two words were heard, everyone started to think, is this not a video Arang-i recorded before she died, but is the Arang-i being shown on the broadcast right now actually the living Arang-i?

This is because in this day and age, there is enough technology to record something, copy the appearance of a specific person as is, and create a fake video.

But that was impossible.

That’s only possible with cell phones and computers, not with connectors.

The connector that creates the virtual world has overwhelming security compared to any other device, and its own discrimination function is superior, so it is absolutely impossible to use or even store a fake video using the connector.

In other words, what’s coming out in the video right now is not a fake recording, but Arang-i is actually alive and speaking directly.

Unlike Arang-i’s worries, the viewers were happy about the news of Arang-i’s survival.

After the news of Arang-i’s survival was 알려진 through the Leole community.

The Leole community was even more fired up than when they 착각했을 that Arang-i had died.

-Arang-i was alive?

-Arang-i didn’t die?

-What? Is Arang-i really alive? Really?

-She didn’t die…?

-Arang-i is alive! She didn’t die!

-Wow… that’s a relief. Really a relief.

==

That’s a relief.

Really a relief.

The current public sentiment of the viewers was not bad.

It was a situation where all sorts of criticisms were bound to come out, such as being deceived, being an attention whore, and being rude.

Luring viewers in, showing them a seemingly dead appearance, gathering all the aggro that could be had in Leole, and then saying, “Actually, I didn’t die!”-but the public opinion wasn’t bad.

Usually, there would be a lot more 욕 if it were someone else. People are reacting like this because they know the situation I’m in right now.

“Next time… I’ll think a little more… carefully before… speaking and acting…”

-Next time? Is there even a next time!?

-Huh? So are you going to be broadcasting periodically like this?

-But is your health really okay?

-What about your body? Is your body really healthy?

“I’m really not planning on broadcasting anymore… and my health is getting better and better…”

I told everyone the truth.

“I’m really getting healthier… and I’m still getting checkups… exercising… and getting treatment… to get healthier…”

-Really? That’s a relief…

-So you have to keep getting treatment…

-What kind of disease did you get?

-You have to keep getting treatment?

Since it was my last broadcast, I answered the viewers’ questions one by one, thinking there wouldn’t be any big problems.

-What happened to your arms and legs? Is it because of the disease?

-Hey, you son of a bitch above, are you crazy!?

-Hey, you fucking insensitive bastard

It’s time to talk about this now. Anyway, at the last offline event tournament, all the Korean fans know that I don’t have arms and legs.

“Arang-a. You don’t have to answer questions that are hard to answer. No one will say anything.”

Pinku-unni, thinking that I was having a hard time answering because I was hesitating for a moment, kept being behind the camera and then came next to me and hugged me.

“It’s okay. A lot of people know anyway.”

“Okay…”

“My arms and legs were all necrotic due to the disease and were amputated… I’m also working hard on rehabilitation to use prosthetic arms and legs…”

-Ah…

-That’s really too much, too much…

-How can they take the arms and legs of such a young girl;;;

-Is rehabilitation training very difficult?

“All the nerves are dead, and the doctor-unni said that my mind itself is refusing to have arms and legs, so it seems like it will take time to rehabilitate…”

-Ah…

-Wow, you can’t even use prosthetic arms and legs comfortably…? Is this right?

I slowly and carefully told the viewers about the situation I was in, and just when I thought it was all over to some extent, Pinku-unni, noticing that, appeared once again and wrapped up the broadcast.

“Thank you all for accepting Arang-i’s apology today. As Arang-i said yesterday and today, this is her last broadcast.”

“Yes… today will be my last broadcast… not because I don’t have much time left to live… but because… I don’t really like broadcasting…”

-헐, so you’re never going to be on broadcasts or anything like that again?

-Ah, then isn’t that the same as being dead!

-헉, does that mean you’re closing the fan cafe too? It hasn’t been long since it was created…!?

“Ah… it’s just that I’m not broadcasting… Pinku-unni’s RyuTube… and my fan cafe will continue to operate…”

-Phew…

-I almost couldn’t see Arang-i again

-If the rehabilitation training goes well, do you have any plans to hold a fan meeting…?

“I don’t have any plans for a fan meeting… Actually, even if I do a fan meeting, I don’t have arms and legs, so I think I’ll be showing you an ugly 모습… and I can’t shake hands… and I can’t hug… and I can’t walk…”

-Ah, no, that’s not it!

-Beat that bastard to death!!!

-Wow, he’s a devil… he’s a devil

The viewer who brought up the fan meeting seemed flustered as he typed, and then other viewers also typed in a flustered manner, saying it wasn’t a real-world story.

“Ah… do they do fan meetings in the virtual world these days…?”

Certainly, thinking about the virtual room that the Mead raid team is running, it seems like a fully possible story.

Then there’s no chance of a dangerous accident happening, and safety is guaranteed, so it seems like a very good method.

“If it’s a virtual world fan meeting… I’ll think about it later and tell you… Lastly, I’m sorry… Were you all surprised…? Eat something delicious for dinner and sleep comfortably… I’ll end the broadcast here…!”

Pinku-unni also bowed towards the camera with me and ended the broadcast.

“Huaaa…”

“You worked hard, Arang-a. Let’s go eat a delicious dinner now.”

“Yeah… I want to eat bossam…”

As soon as I confirmed that the broadcast had ended, I slumped into Pinku-unni’s arms.

After doing a broadcast myself, I feel like streamers are really amazing.

Ugh, just reading the chats that the viewers write makes my eyes spin.

On top of that, I was worried about what would happen if people hated me, or if they would indiscriminately criticize me, so I’m quite tired.

I’ll never do a broadcast again. I’m just going to live quietly playing games…!
