[Illustrator??]
- At this point, I don’t even know anymore.
- Seriously, this person is a jack-of-all-trades.
[Isn’t this just a VTuber debut build-up?]
- A build-up that’s been three years in the making, lol.
- After three years, that’s just being an illustrator, not a build-up.
At this stage, nothing is surprising anymore.
Of course, Suhyun’s debut caught the attention of Lumilive fans.
It also drew some interest overseas, but that’s a story for another time.
What dramatically reduced the criticisms aimed at her was none other than the drawing skills she showcased during her debut stream.
“If you draw like this, voilà. Cristiano Ronaldo appears.”
She proved her skills live by completing a portrait in just a few minutes.
No one even bothered to check Suhyun’s SNS, and since Yui’s fans saw her work every day, they didn’t fully grasp her artistic skill.
[Now that I look, she really is an illustrator, lol.]
[As expected of Yui-mama.]
[How does someone draw like that???]
The sudden change in attitude was almost irritating.
Those who previously criticized her for taking screen time from other members were now shamelessly praising her.
If Suhyun had seen this and called them out, they couldn’t have said anything in return.
However, regardless of how the reactions of Lumilive fans shifted, Suhyun was now deeply engrossed in her new career as a VTuber.
Gradually.
Bit by bit.
Very deeply.
Vroom…
The character selection screen sparkled before her eyes.
How long had it been?
When was the last time she played this?
It felt like it had been years.
A-Class Legends.
The first game she became obsessed with, the first game she played with a burning passion.
It’s a battle royale where 60 players brawl on a massive map.
Each player selects a unique character, or “Legend,” with distinct abilities such as mobility, offense, healing, or defense.
Each Legend has clear strengths and weaknesses, so finding one that matches your playstyle is crucial.
Healing and defense roles, in particular, shine in team play.
A-Class Legends can be played solo or as a team.
Although she considered playing solo since there wasn’t anyone to collab with, team play seemed like it could create more diverse streaming content.
After all, guys love that sort of thing, right?
She imitated a female voice in team chat.
Using a voice changer to trick them—a classic.
These pranks are common, with plenty of videos already out there.
But few have a voice as good as hers.
Nowadays, some women act as if they’re streamers just because they’re female and flaunt themselves in team voice chat.
Ugh.
Those people ruin the reputation of female players for everyone else.
Because of them, female gamers like her end up facing backlash before even starting to play.
…
No.
What am I even saying?
Anyway, thanks to these so-called “queen bee” players, the perception of female gamers in A-Class Legends, her birthplace, was in the gutter.
Why do I call it my birthplace, you ask?
First, because A-Class Legends built my FPS skills.
Second, it heavily influenced my unique art style—not the drawing style itself, but the concepts.
The mix of sci-fi and superpowers became something I naturally adored.
Though I never liked the Legends’ designs.
They’re all horrendously ugly.
…
Am I rambling too much?
“Now then… Which Legend should I choose?”
- Just pick Ballistic.
- With Yuki’s playstyle, it’s definitely Octane.
- She’s just desperate to run away, lol.
- Don’t you know how to kite, you noob?
As expected of viewers from community forums, their way of speaking is ridiculously crude.
“Hm… Everyone, calm down.”
- Got it, Yuki!
- These disgusting weebs are even worse than cam streamers, lol.
- What did you just say, you ***?
“…Phew.”
Being a VTuber isn’t easy.
Even though it’s only my second day of streaming, problems keep popping up.
This is why quick-witted managers like Flying Cloud are essential.
The VTuber world has too many people eager to attack.
While I can’t empathize with them, I can at least understand.
Even among weebs, VTuber fans get targeted the most.
So how do regular people view them?
You can tell just by looking at the unmoderated highlight clips.
I may be new, but being a VTuber, I get hurt by these things too, even if I don’t say it out loud.
Sigh.
The toxicity is almost unspeakable.
Ding!
Huh?
A message…
[Flying_cloud: Suhyun, you should hire a chat manager soon.]
Oh no.
- Flying Cloud joined the chat, lol. You’re all dead now.
Ding!
Before I could even respond, another message popped up.
[Flying_cloud: And set your chat to be hidden during streams.]
“Ugh… Okay.”
I can’t beat Flying Cloud…
But chat managers don’t just appear out of nowhere.
Still, even a temporary solution seems necessary.
“Should I try a method I learned from a rabbit princess?”
Well, it was extremely effective in the novel, at least.
Might as well give it a shot.
“…Raise your hand if you were waiting five minutes before yesterday’s debut.”
- Hand.
- Hand22.
- Hand333.
- What’s so good about this that people even subscribed, lol? Are you Elon Musk?
Alright. Next, I’ll say…
“Would the first person to respond like to become the chat manager?”
- Yesss!
- OMG, so jealous.
- The Usahime method, lol.
[BlackLotusSea has been granted manager privileges.]
- (Manager) Bow down, you peasants, lol.
Message blocked by the manager.
As expected.
KaX-chan is always right.
With the trolls gone, the atmosphere had calmed down.
I quickly finished looting on the now less-crowded map.
I picked up the Flatline, a gun that stands out in no particular way.
I used to favor it back in the day because it reminded me of my pre-debut self.
It’s a reliable weapon—no strong points or weak points.
Good for mid-range, close-range, bursts, or single shots.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A bare-handed enemy charged straight at me.
Their fists, of course, never reached me.
“Did they fail to grab a gun…?”
[Inventory]
[Empty]
Huh.
Wait.
They really didn’t have a single item…?
“Are they… a little off? Why didn’t they loot anything…”
I thought it was strange but decided to move on.
Throughout this match, I kept encountering oddities.
“Wait, where did my teammate go?”
- Died right at the start, lol.
- Maybe they’re just really bad at this?
“People charging at me barehanded… What is this…”
- It’s already happened several times, lol.
- Stream snipers, huh?
- Nothing better to do, those lazy jerks, lol.
Oh. So that’s what it was.
I’d forgotten since this was my first time streaming a big game like this.
“Ahhh… Stream snipers…”
These people must have way too much free time.
- Wow, those still exist.
- If you don’t hide your screen, it’s inevitable.
- Sniping never really goes away, lol.
Well. I guess this is something I’ll have to get used to.
It’s a bit irritating, but isn’t it something everyone deals with?
Click—
I tossed aside an empty magazine and reloaded.
The cool sensation of metal and its slight weight wrapped around me.
“Everyone. Do you seriously not know what real stream sniping is?”
They say everyone experiences sniping?
That sniping never really disappears?
That doesn’t mean I have to put up with it.
They’re all dead. Those bastards.
These idiots don’t even understand what real sniping is.
- Ah, lololol.
She’s coming! She’s back!
- Misa’s nightmare. Lumilive’s disaster!
- Lolololol.
What can I say?
One word from me, and hundreds of comments follow.
It feels pretty amazing.
Is this why even shut-in loners like Nanoka can manage to become VTubers?
“Ha. Applaud me. I’m about to create another highlight reel.”
- Big Yuki, let’s go!
- We believe in you!
- You made Misa look like an ordinary player—what can anyone else even do, lol?
Even with a slightly bolder tone, it felt refreshing to say.
They laugh and speak without hesitation. Not a single person looks serious.
Kuhehe…
“Alright. Let’s move.”
There’s nothing more humiliating than getting sniped while moving with excitement.
Once I declared I’d deal with the snipers, the ones charging at me barehanded disappeared.
I guess they’ve decided to loot before trying to take me down.
But I’ve already cleaned out the area, so they won’t find a gun like mine anywhere nearby.
Even if they had a better weapon, they’d struggle to win—so what chance do these snipers have?
“Oh. There they are.”
Finally, you show yourselves.
- ? Where? Lol.
- Yuki, seeing things again…
Seriously, nothing’s there.
What do they mean they can’t see anything?
“Over there. Behind the rock on the right.”
As soon as I pointed it out, a thin barrel peeked out from behind the rock before vanishing quickly.
It was the muzzle of a sniper’s gun.
“How cute. Hiding the moment I call them out.”
I guess the viewers still can’t see it.
When I zoomed in as much as possible with my scope, the chat finally reacted.
- ???
- How can anyone see that, lol?
- Is she playing with map hacks?
“This much is nothing. Time to deal with them now.”
At that level, I can take them down head-on without worry.
I consumed a stim and sprinted outside.
My eyes stayed locked on the rock.
- What’s she doing?
- The snipers know where you are too, though.
“So what? My reaction speed is faster.”
The legend I picked is Octane.
A character who trades health for unmanageable speed.
At maximum velocity, I hurled myself into their range.
And at that moment—
Bang! Bang!
Two gunshots echoed from opposite directions.
The only one left standing was me.
“Tada! Yuki wins with ease.”
I confidently struck a smug face and flashed a V-sign.
- Lolololol.
- They couldn’t even hit her after getting her position.
- The snipers were average, but Yuki’s insane, lol.
“Hey. I’m not insane.”
I haven’t done enough to earn that title just yet.
That’s something I’d like to hear after an intense showdown with a truly worthy opponent.
Like… KillogNote or something…
Clack, clack.
Huh.
No time to even think. How harsh.
“I hear footsteps. To the right.”
- No time to breathe, lol.
“That’s…”
Acceleration.
I burst out the door, moving into the enemy’s line of sight.
Then, a quick backstep, a slide, and a switch to my pistol…
Bang!
“Here’s the thing. I’m the one not giving time to breathe.”
A moment of silence followed.
- Holy sh**.
- Wow, that was insane, lololol.
- Just GOATed.
- Pure aim, reflexes, and situational judgment—literally divine.
- Praise Yuki GOD.
- Is she a goddess?
The chat erupted in a flood of messages.
“Hehe.”
This must be why people become VTubers.
It’s so fun, and I only now realize it.
