Who am I?
Where am I?
Ah.
I remembered.
I am Lee Ji-ah, a poor person who was engulfed in black smoke and became a slave to God overnight.
This is the conference room of the Awakened Association.
“So, didn’t Mr. Kim Joong-hwan determine the truth? Lee Ji-ah’s ability is very useful to the Awakened Association..”
“Then shouldn’t we protect Lee Ji-ah even more? If a person who has just awakened enters an area where abnormal phenomena occur, the survival rate is less than 10 percent…”
“If you don’t investigate the abnormal phenomena and items, you will die! What have you heard so far!”
I told him that if I didn’t find the items and abnormal phenomena within 20 days, I would be disposed of.
Kim Joong-hwan immediately called an emergency meeting.
I was called into the conference room out of nowhere.
I demonstrated my ability.
I told him that I would die in 20 days.
That’s why I’m asking this.
I’m watching the high-ranking members of the Awakening Association raise their voices and mention my name in real time.
It seems like I didn’t do anything wrong, but I feel like I’m sitting on a thorn in my side.
Am I right?
If I had revealed the truth on the day I first visited the Awakening Association, things wouldn’t have gotten this complicated.
But.
It was an inevitable choice for me.
I had just awakened my powers, so I was out of my mind.
I was under a lot of pressure to broadcast.
I was even afraid that I would be dissected alive if I revealed my powers.
There was some bickering, but the meeting concluded.
I had to face the abnormal phenomenon and items with my own eyes within 20 days or I would be disposed of.
Whether I liked it or not, I had no choice but to enter the area where the abnormal phenomenon occurred.
The high-ranking members of the Awakening Association also understood this fact well.
Soon, the meeting turned to the topic of ‘How can I increase my survival rate?’
“Items aside, the problem is the abnormal phenomenon.”
“Let’s first notify all the Awakened. When new abnormal phenomena and items appear, report them first and then don’t take action.”
“Okay. In order to maximize Jia’s survival rate, it would be best to party up with another veteran Awakened… We’ll have to decide who is the most suitable person.”
Hmm.
As for my ability.
I think people are overreacting to me too much.
Of course, abnormal phenomena and items are completely impossible to obtain information about with modern human technology.
My ability to write a wiki that allows me to check information about abnormal phenomena and items is definitely a useful ability from the association’s perspective.
But.
The content of the wiki might not be much.
For example.
Black Smoke
Overview:
The black smoke that appeared in Izia’s house.
Aside:
Izia became a woman after being engulfed in this black smoke.
Izia’s race changed after being engulfed in this black smoke.
After being engulfed in this black smoke, Lee Ji-ah awakened her powers.
Like this.
The contents of the wiki can be surprisingly sloppy.
I have yet to use my powers against items and abnormal phenomena.
I don’t know how the items and abnormal phenomena articles will be written.
I don’t know.
You don’t know.
Even the Starry Star doesn’t know.
Anyway, no one knows.
Just because they’re a god doesn’t mean they have to be omnipotent.
The Starry Star might not be a divine being, but just a slightly smart mortal…
Bang!
“Kkueek!”
Tch, cancel! The Starry Star knows everything!
“…Jia?”
“Ah… It’s time to worship. Starry Star, I’m sorry! Thank you! Starry Star is a god and invincible!”
Ah.
The eyes of the people looking at me changed a little.
A little while ago, their eyes were filled with sympathy for me and greed for my powers.
Now, they just. You’re looking at me like I’m some crazy bitch.
I’m not a crazy bitch.
I’m just an ordinary fanatic.
“So.”
In the middle of the conference room.
A middle-aged man, presumably the highest ranking nobleman, spoke.
“What do you think, Lady Jia?”
“What?”
When I answered a little brazenly, the people around me reacted violently.
“Be polite to the chairman!”
Ah.
This person was the chairman?
No, I didn’t know.
I’m not interested in anything other than YouTubers.
Of course.
Even if I’m a fool who doesn’t know anything other than YouTubers, I can’t help but know the name of the chairman of the Awakened Association.
Chairman of the Awakened Association, Ye Jeong-hwan.
I remember his last name clearly because it’s unique.
This person.
He’s a national hero who saved South Korea from crisis in the early days of the abnormal phenomenon.
After calming down the people around him, he asked me again.
“You haven’t said a word since the meeting started. I’m asking because I wonder if you have any good ideas.”
“Well… I’m ignorant about the situation here, so I’m hoping you’ll figure it out.”
“The most important thing is Jia-sama’s opinion. No matter what decision we make, if Jia-sama rejects it, I have no intention of forcing it.”
Huh.
This is a situation I didn’t expect.
This person and the Awakened Association seem surprisingly open-minded.
But well.
If you ask me for my opinion, I only have one thing to say.
“I just want to live.”
“…”
“I don’t particularly want to benefit from Awakened activities, and I don’t want my name to be known. I’ve recently been hospitalized for a rather salty week. So…”
I hesitated for a moment before opening my mouth.
But then I nodded and said.
“Can’t you just give me someone really tough?”
In fact, I felt like I was going to die watching the meeting from the beginning.
This is not possible.
That is not possible.
Why are you so long-tongued?
You said that everything would be solved if you just gave me one really bad Awakened person.
You might point out that my tone is too rude, but……
Think about it, you guys have 20 days left in the life countdown.
Watching this frustrating meeting makes your mouth feel dirty.
Chairman, Ye Jeong-hwan thought for a moment and then said,
“Understood. The meeting has concluded.”
He nodded and continued.
“Let’s give her to Ji-ah.”
“Oh, no, Chairman! It’s too dangerous!”
“What will that crazy punk do..”
And that’s it.
The meeting ended.
After the meeting ended.
I was able to register as an Awakened person right away.
Just because I registered as an Awakened person, it didn’t mean I had to enter the area where the abnormal phenomenon occurred today.
The anomalies and items appear once every two weeks at random times.
No one knows when they will appear, so I can’t just stay in the anomaly zone all day.
On top of that, I have to turn on the broadcast once a day.
They say that they will contact me right away when a new anomaly or item appears.
My request to ‘give me someone strong, no matter who’s fine’ was actively accepted.
They didn’t tell me who it was.
They said that finding out the name in advance wouldn’t do any good or anything.
Here’s what I know about the awakened person.
She’s a woman.
She’s number one in performance.
She has a crazy personality.
These are about three things.
If someone who was well-informed about anomalies and awakened people was the one who could have inferred the target with just this information.
As I said, I’m not a YouTuber, I’m just an idiot.
No matter what, all I have to do is wait for the call, right?
It seems like the Awakening Association sees me as a valuable talent, so I think I can relax a little.
They wouldn’t let a valuable talent like me die.
Before turning on the broadcast, I watched Ayase’s broadcast like I usually do.
[Today, I’m going to start with a cafe tour for the first time in a while. Everyone, please take a seat.]
Take a seat
Cafe tour.
This is the Just Chat noodle content of the virtual YouTubers.
Since I’m going to be broadcasting for the rest of my life anyway, I guess I should open a fan cafe.
Hmm.
Decided, today’s broadcast content.
Let’s start with opening a cafe.
Originally, good things grow when you benchmark them.
Watching Ayase’s broadcast of a cafe tour made my heart melt.
This is healing.
Why do you go to clubs?
To me, Ayase’s broadcast is a club and dopamine.
While watching Ayase’s broadcast like that.
[Recent updates from the newly debuted virtual YouTuber…? I’m curious about this.]
Ah.
No way.
No way?
[Ijia? Wow, why is this person so pretty?]
…That’s right.
Who dared to post my information on Ayase’s sacred cafe?
Postponing information about other streamers on a personal fan cafe could be considered bad manners.
However, Ayase has a mindset that she can improve herself by watching other virtual YouTubers’ broadcasts, so she is very generous about mentioning other virtual YouTubers, especially other virtual YouTubers.
I know that fact better than anyone else.
That virtual YouTuber said he was an Ayase fan.
He’s a real kid since his debut.
The whole world is a kid…
[Oh, really? That’s an honor! Then, I’ll be a fan of Jia from today.]
It was quite embarrassing to hear my name mentioned in real time from Ayase’s mouth.
Of course, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t happy that Ayase looked after me.
If you’re a true Ayase fan.
You should refuse to be named by being mentioned by your nickname.
I haven’t seen a single named viewer have a good ending.
Of course, I’m not a viewer anymore, but a YouTuber.
Anyway.
I couldn’t hold back my embarrassment and sent a donation.
[donated 100,000 won.]
Hmm. But is that all? That YouTuber’s RP is too tough, so I’m not that good.
It was a mistake.
I made a mistake because I wanted them to stop mentioning me.
It was the first time in my life that I, a master of Bang Bang Bo, couldn’t do Bang Bang Bo.
[Don’t look down on other YouTubers! Do you think I wouldn’t know if you look down on me anonymously? Let’s see, your nickname is… Oh my. You shouldn’t say something like that when you’ve been a subscriber for 15 months. According to the broadcast rules, it’s a one-week ban.]
“Eeeeeeeee! I was wrong!”
On this day.
My world fell apart.
