University Battle

Seueuk, seueuk.

I moved my body greatly, checking its condition.

I was a little worried because I got a belly punch inside LeoLe during my period, but thankfully, my period ended without much pain.

Of course, I turned into an Ottogi ketchup bottle once, but I got through it healthily without any problems.

Compared to when I first started having periods, this is nothing. Of course, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt. It just means compared to the first time.

As my body gets healthier, my menstrual cycle seems to be stabilizing, and the pain has decreased a lot.

I usually feel pretty bad when I’m banned from gaming once a month, my body hurts, and my emotions fluctuate, but now I’ve gotten used to it to some extent.

Usually, if someone experiences a lot of discomfort due to their period like me, they take painkillers or birth control pills to calm it down a bit, but I still can’t take medicine.

Even though I receive treatment from medical staff at the best medical facility in the world once a week.

“Hyu.”

It’s frustrating, but I understand.

A person who was almost dead suddenly revived! So it’s understandable to be cautious.

Anyway, after my period ended, Go-seo’s body is so energetic that you could call it the best condition.

At this rate, even though my period is over, can’t I use Awakening Mode and Dual Personality Mode?

I should play a few rounds after the mini university battle.

Today is the day for the mini university battle for [Nine University], which I belong to, in the evening.

It’s only been three days since I entered [Nine University], but I already feel a strong sense of belonging. Is it because it’s a space war game?

Although it’s called a university, it’s more accurately described as a club.

The guild is a guild within the game, and the university now is a virtual world, but instead of meeting in the game, we meet in a room, practice together, broadcast together, and have fun playing the game. It’s that kind of feeling.

No. Since fans give balloons, which is money, is it more like a temporary pro gamer team than a club?

Anyway, our university is having a friendly mini university battle today.

We’ll play a best-of-seven series, and if it’s 3-3, we’ll determine the tiers by ladder and have an ace match.

In the old days of space war pro matches, each team would just pick their desired ace to send out, but the space war ace match of today’s era is a bit different.

Since there are students with different tiers in each university, instead of picking an ace to play, we draw lots to determine which tier will play the ace match.

Instead, each university excludes one desired tier and then proceeds with the ladder draw.

I’m not participating in this mini university battle, but [Vita], a space war female streamer I picked, is participating.

I practiced and cheered with her so she could win, but I don’t think she will!

Why? Because when I look at her, she has no talent for space war. I feel it’s amazing that she’s reached her current skill level with effort alone.

I liked everything about her, but it’s a shame that her gaming skills are so poor, which is a bit disappointing.

If she had even slightly met my cut-off, we could have become best friends right away, but she couldn’t even get a toehold on that cut-off.

It would probably take about three years for her to reach a skill level that I would be satisfied with? I almost got frustrated and annoyed even when I tried to teach her directly, so it will take a long time.

“Welcome, Arang-ah!”

“Hi, Arang-ah!”

“Wow, you look so pretty today too.”

“Arang-i dresses so well? You look so pretty!”

As soon as I arrived at the university, the female students from our university who had arrived earlier greeted me.

As soon as I arrived, they complimented my style, but in fact, all these clothes were styled by Pinku, Anna, and Belly Cover.

In the virtual world, also known as the multiverse, it’s possible to hang out like you’re hanging out in reality, not just playing games, but also in rooms or large servers.

So what’s important?

It’s appearance.

In the virtual world, clothing and housing among the necessities of life are provided by default. However, these default provisions are mostly very ordinary.

So, if you want to wear clothes other than the default clothes, you have to buy and wear them just like in reality.

Like the cloud bed in my virtual room.

Actually, I didn’t think much about clothes. I don’t stay in the virtual room for long anyway, and I play games.

The only thing I wanted to buy was dolphin pants, but now the unnies, who I’m used to calling unnies, even buy a lot for me and put them in my loadout.

In the virtual world, you don’t change clothes like in reality, but you can change clothes just by clicking on the clothes you want, and there’s a loadout like an equipment window in an RPG game, so you can save your full outfit.

So, whenever you want, you can choose the style you want and just click the [Wear] button to change clothes right away.

The unnies set all of this up for me instead. And they do it randomly every day.

Today’s random outfit is a pure white dress.

It’s just an okay dress in my eyes, but I feel good because everyone likes it.

“Hello, everyone.”

I’m in a higher position as a professor in terms of rank, but no matter what, there’s at least a 10-year age difference, and if it’s a lot, there’s almost a 20-year age difference, so I, who have a strong Confucian ideology, greeted them politely again today.

If it were in the game, the rank would be determined by skill!

[Hyuk-su] [Broadcasting]

“Well, today is finally the day of the mini university battle.”

[Thank you for 500 balloons, Eosu-nim!]

[Let’s win today!]

“Thank you. We must win today. We lost last time, but this time everyone has prepared a lot and worked hard, right? We will definitely win.”

[Thank you for 100 balloons, Hanbaldwiro-nim!]

[You always get destroyed when you say that lol]

“Aheo! Today is Arang-i’s first university battle since she joined, right? We have to show them our strength. Arang-i was very shocked by our kids’ skills, right?”

“Me?”

“Arang-ah, you’re here? You came early?”

“Yes. I didn’t have anything to do today, so I came in advance.”

“Very good. Do you want to say hello to the viewers?”

“Hello. This is Arang.”

As soon as Arang-i appeared in Hyuk-su’s room, which already had many viewers, it almost doubled in less than 5 minutes.

This is because not only space university viewers but also viewers who like Arang-i gathered.

Recently, there have been very few opportunities to see Arang-i for the past month.

Twice for the LeoLe war event and twice for the space war broadcast. She only showed her face four times.

So when she appeared on Hyuk-su’s broadcast, everyone gathered to see Arang-i.

“Oh. A lot of people gathered. Is this the power of Arang-i? Then I will now receive challenge missions.”

When a certain number of viewers gathered, Hyung-su began to receive challenge balloons needed for this university battle.

The mini university battle has a lighthearted feel, but space war viewers don’t just want a friendly match.

They don’t just want to see people laughing and joking, but they want a game where people are really desperate and want to win.

Because of that, each university gathers challenge balloons.

They match the gathered balloons as closely as possible and combine them. And the university that wins takes all the combined balloons.

[Challenge Mission – University Battle Victory -]

[Thank you for 10,000 balloons, Jahan-nim!]

[Arang-i fighting!!!]

Hyuk-su and the university members were startled by the 10,000 balloons that came in as soon as the challenge mission opened.

10,000. Excluding the commission, that’s a whopping 1 million won.

The balloons piled up in the challenge mission instantly reached 10,000.

Usually, it’s 5,000 to 10,000, and if it’s an important game, it goes up to 30,000.

But the process of going up usually takes about 30 minutes, but today, 10,000 piled up in just 1 second.

“Heok! Thank you for ten, ten thousand balloons, Jahan-nim! No, ten thousand right away! You’re talking about Arang-iㅡ.”

Hyuk-su looked at Arang-i.

The music that plays when you receive 10,000 balloons began to play.

Usually, when you receive balloons, everyone dances together, and if you specifically mention a certain student or person, that person comes out alone and dances, thanking them for giving the balloons.

But he wondered if he could ask Arang-i to do that.

In the first place, Arang-i was too lazy to broadcast, so even if she started now, she could just succeed, but she wasn’t doing it.

Everyone looked at Arang-i.

Arang-i, blinking her eyes brightly in Vita’s arms.

Even if Arang-i is oblivious, she couldn’t not know the situation now, so Arang-i nodded and said.

“Thank you for 10,000, Jahan-nim.”

Everyone flinched at the very short and dry answer that didn’t feel like a real thank you, as if 1 million won hadn’t been spent.

But.

[Challenge Mission – University Battle Victory -]

[Thank you for 10,000 balloons, Jahan-nim!]

[KkiyahoOOOOOOOO! This is it, this is it!]

Rather, the viewer named Jahan was going crazy with joy. He shot another 10,000 balloons.

Being able to give something to someone you like is one of the things fans really want.

At idol fan meetings or famous fan meetings, fans give their favorite people gifts.

But there was only one way to give something to Arang-i.

Fan cafe? It’s just a cafe, and RyuTube? All donations are blocked, and even though Arang-i is a RyuTuber, Pinku Berry takes all the profits, and Munchkin Cat Guild members’ broadcasts? All the donations there go to those broadcasters.

In other words, it’s impossible to give Arang-i even one thing.

The only possible way is to give it directly at Asan Middle School, where Arang-i attends.

But that’s close to impossible.

Only students who attend the same middle school as Arang-i in the fan cafe can do it, but ordinary adult fans could only suck their fingers.

Of course, even shooting balloons now doesn’t go directly to Arang-i. But it’s a big deal that Arang-i is reacting directly.

“Hmm, is it a little much to just gloss over it with this?”

Arang-i recalled that her sense of money had become slightly numb while living as Arang-i, and once again called out the nickname of the viewer who had given 20,000 balloons so far.

“Jahan-nim, shall I show you something fun as a reaction then?”

Balloons rising again at Arang-i’s words.

[Thank you for 100 balloons, Jahan-nim!]

[It’s okay! You don’t have to do it! It’s really okay!]

“Really?”

[Thank you for 100 balloons, Jahan-nim!]

[Yes! Please don’t do it, I would appreciate it!]

The viewer Jahan desperately sent balloons, preventing Arang-i’s reaction because he knew what kind of accident Arang-i had caused every time she said she would show something fun.
