Chapter 8: I was wrong….
[Hey, support, I’ve got a question.]
[…]
[Support? Sup? Kitty? You there!?]
[You calling me?]
[Is there another support here?]
[There’s three more over there?]
[What are you saying? Why would they be supports!]
[Then what are they!?]
[You @#^@#^!@#$!@$!^#&#$%&#$]
“Heck!? Why am I getting cursed at again!?”
–Calling a support a support and they deny it, wouldn’t you get mad? lol
–Can’t we call a support a support? lol
–They’re denying it while being called lol
–If they say no, it’s no lol
“…Oh, that’s what it means? Got it!”
[Haha, right, I’m the support!]
[Got it!! That’s what I’m saying!!]
[You’re an angry one, huh?]
[@^&#$^@#^%!@#%!#%!%!]
[Calm down, friend, what’s your question?]
[Why aren’t you buying items??]
[What’s that?]
[…]
“What!? What am I supposed to buy!? Items? What are those!?”
–Now that I think about it, did we tell her to buy items?
–We didn’t, right? Does a cat even need items?
–They don’t?
–They do.
–Crazy guy?
–Kkyakya donated 1,000 KRW.
[We told you to buy items at the shop!!]
“When did you say that!? I don’t remember!?”
–Right! That guy’s at fault lol
–Apologize! Apologize! Our Luna is innocent!
–Yeah! He’s wrong lol
–Should’ve said earlier! Like yesterday lol
–Right, his fault lol
Seriously, why don’t my Doolgis tell me things in advance!? I’m the one getting cursed at!
Is there something wrong with my team’s morals for cursing me over not buying items?
I mean, I could just not buy items!
[Forgetting items happens, why curse!?]
[@^@#$!@$!@$!^#&@#$&#&]
[Heck!? Sorry!! Don’t curse!!!]
[&#$&#$%@#$!@#!@#!@#]
“Heck!? Is something wrong with my team’s morals!? They’re cursing me like crazy!”
–Wow, I’ve seen curses I’ve never seen before.
–Never been cursed like that? You never played Rule?
–Yeah, why play a game with such toxic people?
–Right? Why am I playing? lol
–Look at this guy’s brain, he’ll play a long time lol
–^@#^@#^@#$@#$@#$@#$
–See, it’s a disease game!
“Heck!? I said cursing in chat gets you banned!”
[BLUEZ has been banned from chatting for 1 day.]
“…Huh? I meant to ban for 60 minutes!?”
–Wow, is this a 24x service or something? lol
–Ma’am!! Too generous here? lol
–Even a 24x EXP event wouldn’t do this lol
–My stomach hurts lol
–BLUEZ donated 10,000 KRW.
[I messed up, please unban me ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ]
“Oh! 10,000 KRW, of course I’ll unban you! Hold on!”
–Boo, capitalist streamer, boo
–Boo, money solves everything, boo
–Boo, dragging Luna to politics, boo
–Isn’t that a good thing?
–Boo, shut up, boo
“Oh!? 10,000 KRW, don’t I have to unban for that!?”
–Boo, should’ve taken 100,000, boo
–Right, 1,000,000, boo
–Boo, explain yourself, boo
–Explain, boo
“What am I explaining!? Wait, I died!?”
[Hey, you cat, why’re you standing still!!!!]
[Sorry, sorry, was distracted]
[I can’t stop cursing because of you!!!! Buy items at base!!!!]
[Ok ok, but what do I buy?]
[3$&^#$^@#$%#@$%#$%#$%#@#$]
“Heck!? They asked what to buy, why curse!?”
This game is terrifying.
One match, and I’m never playing again.
The game ended, and I watched my team leave while cursing, feeling heavy.
It even made me a bit depressed.
“Ugh, isn’t this game too scary!? I’m new, I can mess up!!”
–Right, our Luna’s not at fault lol
–Yeah, you can mess up, our Luna’s innocent lol
–But if we’re on the same team, I might say bad things lol
–Luna on our team!? No nice words lol
–If our support steals my minions, doesn’t buy items, and AFKs, you think I’d stay quiet?
–If I could stay quiet, I’d be a monk, not playing this disease game lol
“Sob, I’ll end the stream here. My heart hurts.”
–Don’t gooooooo
–If Luna goes, we’ll hurt moreeeeee
–If you go, I won’t eat!? If I’m sick, no hospital!!!!
–I might not go to work!? Huh!? I won’t!? No work!!
–Aren’t you jobless? Always here.
–For real lol
“But I went over an hour today!! So, Luba!!!!!!”
–Lubaaaaa
–Don’t gooooooo
–Lubaaaaa
–Don’t gooooooo
–Don’t gooooooo
<Stream Ended>
“Ugh, today’s stream felt so fulfilling. Hehe, viewers grew a lot.”
I’m happy about the viewer growth, but there’s a problem.
With more viewers, there’s more chat, including weird ones.
I think I need to get a manager to handle it.
But what conditions do I use? I don’t have money, sob.
‘Ding-dong’
The doorbell rang.
The only time it rang was for a gas inspection, but that was recent.
So it’s not the gas guy? Who is it!?
A thief!? A thief ringing the doorbell!? That doesn’t make sense!
“W-who’s there?”
“…It’s big sister.”
“…Eh?”
*
Someone who shouldn’t be here is in my house.
In my tiny, less-than-6-pyeong studio.
Min Hayoon, heir to the Zeus Group.
The pillar of our family, handling all domestic and international affairs for our parents.
‘Why is big sister here!? Wasn’t she overseas!? She was abroad before I got kicked out!’
“Hey, maknae, been doing okay?”
“U-uh, y-yeah, o-of course…”
My social anxiety doesn’t spare family.
I can’t even look at her face, answering with my head down. How pathetic am I?
Same blood, yet one’s the heir to the top-ranked Zeus Group.
And one’s kicked out, living in a studio…
“Maknae!? You okay!?”
She suddenly grabbed my arm.
Oh, I was trembling too much.
Making big sister worry.
How much more of a failure am I?
“Maknae. You’re not thinking bad things, right?”
“O-of course not. W-why would s-someone like me t-think that.”
I barely answered, watching her reaction, but breathing was hard.
Talking to someone in this tiny space!? Impossible.
“…Sorry for coming suddenly. This house, though.”
“N-no!! I-I’m f-fine with a h-house like this…”
Even with rent.
I’ve been covering rent with old allowance money.
The last overdue rent came from big sister’s money.
‘…I’m trash who can’t even pay rent?’
“…Maknae. There was a misunderstanding. We didn’t mean to kick you out to a place like this.”
W-what, even this place is too good for me?
If I’m kicked out from here, where do I go? Starve on the streets?
Sobbing, I clung to her leg.
She looked at me, startled.
“T-that’s not what I meant. Maknae, can you listen to me?”
“S-s-sorry. I-I-I’m t-t-trash, s-sorrysorrysorrysorrysorry…”
“Maknae!? Maknae!? Snap out of it!! Maknae!?”
“I-if I’m k-kicked out from h-here, I h-have n-nowhere…”
My mind couldn’t hold on.
It was hard when she arrived, but I reached my limit.
With those final words, I passed out.
