[Today’s Miro Broadcast]

I turned on the broadcast.

Honestly, I thought about taking a break…

But I have to head back to filming soon, so I should at least stream during this time.

-????

-You actually turned it on, lol

-Welcome, lol

The viewers seemed genuinely surprised that I had decided to go live.

Of course, not everyone here must have heard that I appeared in a drama…

[Thank you for the 1,000 won donation, ㅇㅇ!]

Lady Soo-yeon has appeared!!!

-Oh my, Lady!

-How did you end up in such a precious place…

-Is your head alright?

“Haha.”

…Still, a lot of the people who just joined the stream probably have seen me.

I quickly changed the broadcast settings before more viewers could join.

“Today, we’ll have subscriber-only chat.”

I set it to chat for paid subscribers… and also limited the follow duration.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-But we can still chat~~

-Lady Soo-yeon, why are you treating us like this? ㅜㅠ

-Looks like you’re plundering instead of being noble.

…But thinking it over, the viewers with restrictions aren’t the ones who wouldn’t chat.

Normally, new viewers stir up chaos, but everyone seems to be focused and the chat is moving fast.

“What was that drama called… Chase? Looks like you all enjoyed it?”

-???

-Why act like you don’t know? (Seriously doesn’t know)

-Oh yeah, it was fun, lol

-Wait, did Miro see it too?

“Aah, I watched it with my family. But what do you mean ‘Lady Soo-yeon’? What is that supposed to mean?”

-????

-Lady Soo-yeon… Did you get hit and lose your memory? ㅠㅠ

-Moon Chang-won, you bad dude… How hard did you hit her?ㅠ

-You should know better…

…Should I end the broadcast?

After pondering seriously for a moment, I shook my head and spoke.

“Alright, everyone, shall we play a game?”

-Why are you dodging the question??

-Hmm… Should we play a game?

-Don’t talk about shooting guns!

-Can Lady Soo-yeon even play games??

-Do you play something like Ganggangsullae?

Come on… that Lady Soo-yeon.

I feel like this will go on for quite a while.

Well… I’ll take it as karma.

Since I expected this level of reaction since filming started.

“Ganggangsullae? No way, we’re playing a trendy game.”

-mz?

-Ooh?

-What are we doing?

The game I opened is the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, for which I’m currently the advertising model.

“Alright, this is the latest game.”

The chat fills with question marks.

-??

-??

-Oh crap, another Three Kingdoms game.

“What do you mean, another Three Kingdoms? This is long overdue.”

Thinking about it, I do have an ad model contract, and I felt like I was neglecting it.

Well, I’ve already fulfilled my contractual obligations.

Anyway, the feeling of jumping into a game after a long time is strangely nostalgic.

Of course, since the muscle memory is intact, I got into it smoothly.

“It’s been a while, so I’ll start with the basics.”

The setting is 190, Anti-Dong Zhuo coalition.

I quickly made a moderately strong character and started as a hooligan, aka neighborhood thug.

-Lady Soo-yeon, why are you in China? ㅠㅜㅠㅜ

-Could you go back to Joseon?

-Ah, no!

No matter how chaotic the chat got, I focused on the initial tasks first.

Soon enough, as the time comes for the Anti-Dong Zhuo coalition to stir, I have to seize the empty houses to build power.

Starting from the basics, as a hooligan, I was raiding nearby inns to grab some cash…

[Thank you for the 1,000 won donation, ㅇㅇ!]

Why has Lady Soo-yeon turned so crooked? ㅠㅠㅜ

-ㅠㅜㅠㅜ

-Please don’t do this. ㅜㅜ

-ㅠㅜ

-How can a noble’s child not know Confucianism? ㅜㅠ

“Wow.”

Judging by the atmosphere, it seems comments like that will keep coming in all day.

No, not just today; I think it’ll go on for a month.

Well, enjoy yourselves.

After all, viewers who would stop just because I said so aren’t around.

So I started to play the game comfortably.

“As a noble, collecting taxes from the common folk is a virtue!”

Crash!

My character smashed through the inn in the game.

-???!

-What the heck, lol!

“You commoners! Hand over your money quickly!”

[Oh no! Ah!]

The elderly couple managing the inn screamed and bowed to me.

-Oh crap, lol!

-You bad dude!

-You shouldn’t be doing this!

“Is this all you have? You should be getting hit some more.”

In a tone reminiscent of a historical drama, I spoke just like Lady Soo-yeon, smashing around while extorting money.

Crash!

-Dude, give back Soo-yeon!!

-That tone is awful, lol!

-This isn’t how Lady Soo-yeon acts…

Effort does not betray.

Even months after filming, the audience seems shocked at how well I’m speaking like Lady Soo-yeon.

“Hoho, it’s a satisfactory collection.”

Anyway, while I was busy extorting, the soldiers from the local lord started rushing toward me.

It seemed like they came to check on the ruckus and were startled at the sight of me.

[You thief!]

[In these chaotic times, how can you commit such vile acts?]

The soldiers were flustered by the wreck of the inn, but I picked up a nearby chair and threw it at a soldier.

Smack!

[Ah!]

“Who dares to call me a thief!”

-Am I not a thief??? (Seriously doesn’t know)

-This is crazy, lol.

-This dude is just going wild, lol.

I don’t know, I don’t.

I was just trying to play the game normally, but the viewers pushed me to this point.

I raised another chair and threw it at a soldier, and amid that, I grabbed the cheap club provided as a starter item and charged at the soldiers.

I set appropriate stats, but that was based on the standards of general officers in Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Ordinary soldiers were no match for me, and I knocked them all out and looted their weapons.

It was a shabby spear, but it was better than nothing.

With the spear in hand, I exited the chaotic inn filled with a crying elder couple and fallen soldiers.

“Where shall we go next?”

-This crazy woman…

-Seriously, this is a social evil, lol!

-What’s the Anti-Dong Zhuo coalition doing? They should be catching this nutcase, lol!

Anyway, after robbing all the nearby inns, the result was…

A full wallet and an even bigger bounty on my head!

“This is going to be tough.”

With such a bounty, the local thugs would have their eyes out for me.

And sometimes, when a legendary officer comes around, if a monster like He Jin shows up, it would be life or death.

Well, since I can defeat whoever comes my way and capture them to make them my subordinates, I gathered my gathered thugs and stormed the local lord’s house.

Being a small village, the lord’s power wasn’t significant.

Though there were hundreds of soldiers, they were…

[Take them all down!]

As I yelled in the game, my followers charged forward, and I bravely followed, making the soldiers panic and run away.

My infamy was well known in this village, making the NPCs scared in advance.

Thus, I became the new lord of the village quite easily.

-Ah no, ㅠㅠㅜ

-How can you use force like this…

-This isn’t how Lady Soo-yeon behaves…

Even as viewers continued to talk about Lady Soo-yeon, I started to grow my influence.

I dealt with any righteous warriors seeking me out, and while the stronger fighters of the Anti-Dong Zhuo coalition weren’t back yet, I worked hard to build my power in the empty houses.

And now that Dong Zhuo has moved the capital to Chang’an and the Anti-Dong Zhuo coalition has collapsed, the real power struggle was about to begin.

“That’s it for today.”

Satisfied with the power I had built, I saved the game and logged out.

-Ah…

-I was really enjoying it.

-Still, how about facing someone now? ㅋㅋ

The viewers, who were deeply engrossed, expressed their regret, but there will always be other chances.

As I switched back to the desktop, I briefly checked the viewer count.

Hmm, there’s still quite a few left.

Even though I played games for over an hour, my viewer count was still higher than usual.

Perhaps those who saw it in the community kept coming back, not being able to chat because of the limitations, returning over and over again.

Some among them might even settle into my broadcast.

Anyway, returning my gaze, I found the chat busily moving even while I was lost in thought.

-That was quite fulfilling, lol!

-Give back Lady Soo-yeon, you scoundrel!

-Will this be edited?

-So, are you going to share stories about drama filming soon??

“Goodness….”

Even after the game ends, they’re still looking for Lady Soo-yeon and the drama.

I wanted to chat a bit more, but I wonder if this can even be classified as casual talk.

Should I just spill the beans?

Honestly, I’m starting to doubt if the red pill or whatever would even have meaning at this point.

Yet, it feels a bit awkward to just bluntly say it.

So, I mentioned it casually.

“Filming wasn’t… too hard, I would think?”

-Right? It wouldn’t have been easy, lol.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-You’re really gonna let it out??

-How hard was it??

It was hard… Of course, it wasn’t easy.

I vaguely remember that the filming location for Lady Soo-yeon was very cold.

“It was probably filmed in winter, so it must have been cold… And with a historical drama, there are the costume issues…”

As I relayed this sentiment, the chat filled with question marks.

-????

-Winter???

-Did you film it then???

-What are you filming now???

“Oh.”

Did viewers misunderstand?

With my busy schedule lately, was it because of the drama I was filming now?

…They might not know the circumstances at all.

Especially since Lady Soo-yeon was a supporting role, they might think that I filmed it and it was just processed with CG.

“…I wouldn’t really know, right? Just a guess.”

-???

-Is there something else???

-Legendary, lol!

-What’s going on??

-What is it really?

[Thank you for the 10,000 won donation, Crafty Miro!]

What are you filming? What is this??

“Ugh.”

I misspoke.

“I don’t know. The broadcast is over.”

Normally, I would tidy things up, but… today, I felt too mentally worn out and just ended the broadcast.

-??????????

-What the heck.

-Where are you going?

-Ah.

-I’m sorry.

-Come back, please;;

I don’t know. Let them wonder on their own.

This is the price for bothering me all day.

After I cut the broadcast, the comments continued pouring in, and I simply shut down my computer.
