Chapter 2

Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

That day, Masaki worked past seven in the evening and quickly hurried home afterwards.

\n

Today’s collab is hosted on Ringo Mikan’s channel. Therefore, there’s not as much to prepare for the stream compared to normal.

However, there is a meeting at nine regarding the collab.

\n

「Crap, I’m getting nervous……」

\n

The other party are people with millions of subscribers. He knows that he’s obviously out of place; if most of the viewers say they don’t know him, he wouldn’t mind it at all.

\n

In his mind, Masaki isn’t thinking 「No matter what, I have to make this a success」, but rather 「No matter what, I can’t make a blunder」.

Since Masaki does not care for increasing his subscribers, he’s readied himself around the thought that「It’s fine as long as I don’t give off a bad impression」.

\n

A little before nine o’clock, he joined the Discord server he was invited to.

\n

『Aah, I’m so nervous I’m about to barf. Shit, help me……』

『You better not say something like barf in front of the person himself. He’ll definitely be disgusted………………ah, crap』

『Eh, what, what is it Ringo. Oi Mikan. What’s wrong………………eh, ah』

\n

The moment he joined, Masaki knew that he came in at the wrong time.

Forbidden girls’ talk. So called forbidden because it should not be heard by others.

\n

「Go, good evening……Today um, I look forward to working with you today」

\n

For now, he greeted them to somehow change the awkward atmosphere.

\n

However, the two didn’t react directly to him.

\n

Instead.

\n

『Crap, Mikan daifuku¹ 』

『Who are you calling a daifuku』

『His voice…………is so pleasant, I might not make it through today’s collab』

『Disgusting, creepy, what you just said was beyond gross』

「Eh, umm」

『Dangerous, anymore and my ears will be impregnated‼ I need to plug my ears‼ Ah, but, I want to hear more of his voice……』

『Sorry about that, Masaki-san. This girl, she’s acting like one of your troublesome viewers』

「No, umm, I appreciate the compliment……」

\n

As for Masaki, he’s troubled on how to react.

There’s one person who already threw away her sense of reasoning and another who wants nothing to do with it. For Masaki, it’s difficult to choose which position he should take.

\n

「Umm, about the meeting……」

「Let’s see. Then let’s continue it without her」

\n

It seems Ringo has decided to ignore Yuugure for now. Perhaps the depth of their friendship between the two of them makes it possible.

\n

Masaki received a general explanation after that.

\n

The overall plan is to have Yuugure host and lead while Masaki and Yuugure answer questions from the viewers. They aren’t told the contents of the questions beforehand but Masaki deemed it OK since the questions will be ones approved by management.

\n

『Ah, this troublesome viewer will probably say something disgusting later so feel free to give her the cold shoulder. You can also openly retort against her. Most of her viewers don’t care about that. You won’t get flamed as long as you don’t take it too far』

「I see…………that’s amazing」

\n

Yuugure was completely treated like a rat by Ringo. So this is the world past one million subscribers, Masaki meekly admired.

\n

『Well then the stream is about start. I look forward to working with you』

\n

Ringo’s voice promptly brought back his nervousness and shifted his attention.

\n

And from here on out, a hell-like collab began.
