Chapter 2: Iâm going to tell you the whole story, so listen up
Streaming in the other world is not that different from what Kanata had seen in his previous life.
There is no such thing as video games in this world, so there is inevitably a lot of rambling⊠but his chat is also open to things such as giving his advice on peopleâs problems.
âLetâs have a look at the messages. Erm⊠what does it say?â
Although it is said to be a consultation about some worries, he often receives a few boastful stories that people want him to read while everyone else listens to the now famous Haishin.
Apparently, the first letter he picked out randomly was that kind of boast.
[Yo, Haishin, listen to my saga.
Iâm a B-rank party adventurer.
Iâm not yet twenty, but Iâve been able to build up a certain amount of strength, and Iâm also the leader of my party.
The other day, a useless piece of garbage came to our party.
Heâs a piece of trash since he can only do things like scouting, weapon maintenance, and support magic.
When I told him this morning that I donât want trash like him and that he should leave the party, he cried and clung to me. It was painful.]
It was reminiscent of something Kanata had often read in a previous life, as if to say, âThis guy was destined to be a sucker.â
The senderâs name seemed to be Acta, but Kanata sighed and replied.
[Are you stupid? Being able to search for enemies, care for weapons, and use support magic is pretty competent. Why are you acting like youâre better than him?]
The person who told Kanata to read his story was one of his followers in his stream.
But Kanata doesnât care about any of that. He just says what he wants to say, honestly.
It is what makes him so popular. Either for his antipathy or, opposite to it, his frankness and objective opinions on any subject.
[When youâre an adventurer, you go to all types of dungeons, right? So, it would be helpful to have a scout who can find the monsters before they find you, am I right? And if he takes care of your weapons for you, you can save a lot of money compared to going to a store, no? Of course, youâll have to pay him a fair price for his services as a companion.]
There are still many things Kanata has to say.
There were many comments flowing on the screen, and while some certainly wondered if they should care about such garbage, most comments on chat were normal, saying, for the most part, that the person was horrible, etc.
[And support magic is not so useless either. Hey, man, has having that guy around made you feel better? Something that makes you stronger than usual? Think back often to all the little things that make you stronger or easier to fight. If that rings any bells, itâs a result of you benefiting from that support magic.]
After saying that much, Kanata drank the drink that was on hand.
The number of viewers got displayed at the corner of the screen, and it was quite successful, with over 10,000 people connected.
[Well, I donât care what you think, but youâre not a hero. Youâre just bullying the weak and getting all worked up about it. If youâre the party leader, you should pay attention to their skills and give them proper recognition. Otherwise, youâll die later wishing he had been there when you were.]
Kanata laughed and said, âWell, itâs just a paraphrase of a certain knowledge.â
It had been a while since he received such a template in another world, so he said many things, but Kanata wasnât sure if his message went through or not.
Even if heâs a bit of a bad character, heâs still one of his followers. Thatâs why he just hopes for him to live a long life.
[Letâs move on to the next message~]
Kanata looked over the next message, which was also peculiar.
[Nice to meet you, Haishin. I am the son of a certain senior nobleman.
Kanata took a deep breath as he was about to shout something that would never get across in this world, âExplode you Riajuus!â
[If youâre still going to let her go, then introduce her to me. I want a girlfriend too, you idiot.]
With that last remark, Kanata ended the topic.
Yes, even Kanata wanted to be popular and have a girlfriend.
But reality doesnât work like that. Even with unlimited magic power, itâs not something that could be achieved.
Even if his rank is S, Kanataâs current situation implies that there is no connection between the rank and the popularity factor.
âIâve said quite a bit⊠Hmm?â
Then, Kanata found a certain comment.
It was a coloured comment, meaning that the money was transferred to the account Kanata had created along with the text.
Itâs what we call throwing money in the previous world, and Kanata got to achieve that in this world.
[TLN: SIMP DETECTED :samuraidoggo:]
[From: Nameless Princess
Haishin-sama, I am happy to hear your voice today. This is my way of thanking you for all you have done for me. Please accept it by all means.]
Ten gold coins got sent attached to the text.
One gold coin in this world is 10,000 yen in the previous life, which means that someone donated 100,000 yen to him at that moment.
[EDN: $754 USD]
[Thank you, Princess âȘ, but you donated to me yesterday as well⊠Hey, did you borrow these from your parents or someone else? Are you sure youâre alright?]
Although he was grateful for the daily help, Nameless Princess is one of those followers who always donates money to Kanata.
Just thinking about it gives one the chills, but Kanata is not at all perplexed about receiving the money because there is nothing better than having it.
[No problem. Itâs all from my pocket money⊠By the way, Haishin-sama, may I volunteer to be your girlfriend? No, rather, let me!]
[Thanks, Princess, but Iâll ask for you when I get a chance.]
Kanata flushed lightly.
Her name is Princess, and she speaks like a woman, but Kanata knows about such people.
There exist beings in this world who pretend to be women even though they are men, a.k.a. nekama.
[EDN: Heh.]
He knows that as the only person who can stream in this world, Kanata is on their radar.
So he has no intention of meeting with anyone under any circumstances, and he definitely has no intention of revealing himself to anyone.
[Iâm going to finish up here for today. See you all tomorrow then!]
With those words, todayâs streaming ended.
Turning off the terminal, Kanata rests his back against the chair and exhales in a huff.
âI wonder if the streaming in the previous world was like this too⊠Itâs so much fun.â
With a giggle, Kanata left the room to eat his food.
The streaming Kanata does as Haishin is really popular. Little does he know that sometimes he can make someone change their behaviour and save someone destined to be unhappy.
Rather, it is not only humans who watch his streams. He would have never imagined he has followers among the demonic tribes, who are hostile to humans.
