“Wow, there are so many people today!”

– No kidding, lol

– Should we do a quick ant-swarming before the content starts?

– So many indeed

Since I made an announcement beforehand for this broadcast and we just wrapped up the debut song for the third generation, it seems viewers have flocked in substantially today.

Aren’t the other celestial members streaming?

The third-generation members should be doing something too.

“Anyway, let’s get started with the first episode of Miro’s counseling!”

– Episode 1?

– Is there gonna be a second episode?

“The second episode? Hmm… depends on the response? If it’s good, there might be more.”

Looking at the issues that have come in, this might be the first and last episode… but who knows what the future holds, so I’ve tossed a little bait.

“Let’s read through the concerns now.”

Before the stream began, I had a chat with the manager and selected some posts just based on their titles, so I’m planning to read those first.

“The first story is about someone getting caught by their girlfriend watching Miro’s broadcast—interesting, right?”

– ??

– What?

– Damn it;;

Right from the first story, the mention of ‘girlfriend’ has triggered an intense reaction in the chat.

Whoa, I can’t start off with my heart wounded like this.

We’ve got a long way to go.

“Let’s see… hmm.”

The overall content of the post describes how the narrator’s girlfriend gets jealous after catching them watching my broadcast.

“Strange… I wonder what there is to be jealous about.”

There’s nothing romantic going on in my broadcast…

If I had to say, it’s more like a radio show, I guess.

It’s just something nice to have on while doing other things.

– Maybe they searched for ‘red pill,’ lol

– Lol, I didn’t make a girlfriend just to watch Miro’s broadcast

– Isn’t this just deceiving?!

“It does seem a bit deceptive, yeah.”

Logically speaking, there’s no involvement with another woman, and the girlfriend gets jealous over watching a VTuber… feels more like half a deception than a real concern.

“Okay, I’ve read through it, so let’s wrap it up.”

Since there are many other posts, I decided to conclude quickly.

My conclusion is….

Clack—

I clicked on the narrator’s ID with my mouse and gave them a week-long suspension.

“For the sake of mending your relationship with your girlfriend, please take a break from watching Miro’s broadcasts. How’s that for suitable advice?”

– I agree

– Solomon’s got a girlfriend now, huh;;

– Haha, lol

– The masterpiece, Miro

– Damn, this is it, haha

Well, starting off like this, I continued resolving concerns.

There were quite a few blatantly deceptive posts too, so while chewing through them, I found one that stood out.

“This one sounds interesting. Next up, we have a story about someone’s love interest watching Miro’s broadcast… Let’s take a look at that?”

– Hell no, no way

– ??

– Ban this fictional tale, lol

“Well, we’ll figure out if it’s fiction by reading it.”

Honestly, I had my doubts at first, but the more I read, the more it felt real.

It turns out, it’s someone from university, and they were doing a project together, and they noticed her listening to Miro’s songs.

A girl watching my broadcast… well, given the view count, it’s not that there aren’t any female viewers, but I became curious.

“So, I’m a bit intrigued by this one. Should we call them?”

– Sure

– Let me hear their voice

– Go for it

“Are you there? If so, please drop a comment on your post.”

I’m assuming they’re watching now?

Since they wrote it in the café, I waited, and soon enough, a comment popped up.

“Great. Please add me on Discord for a quick chat.”

I shared my secret account set up for viewer interviews in a private comment.

In no time, I got a friend request.

“Wow, this profile picture seems to be a selfie, huh? I wonder if it’ll be okay to show it on the broadcast.”

– Damn, lol

– This is seriously messed up

– Can we just cancel today’s content?

“Everyone, please refrain from malicious slander and jealousy… Keke, hold back.”

– Did you just laugh?

– Haha, can’t believe it

– This bet must have gone wrong for us, right?

Anyway, while I was waiting, a message popped up from the viewer I added.

They confidently said it was fine to appear on the broadcast, and I couldn’t help but be impressed.

“Wow, so they’re okay with being on broadcast with their selfie? Clearly… they must be quite confident.”

The profile picture looked like it was taken in front of a mirror, and they were definitely on the good-looking side among regular people.

“Okay, here we go. Let’s connect them for a chat.”

– Haha, they are indeed good-looking

– Today’s been so exhausting…

– Just stop already…

[Ah, um, hello.]

“Hello, viewer, nice to meet you.”

[Um, I’m a bit nervous.]

“What’s there to be nervous about?”

Now that we were connected, it was time to start the official interview.

“So, your love interest watches my broadcast, right?”

[Yes, the profile music is one of Miro’s songs.]

“Oh really? Which one?”

[Um, ‘Turning Point.’]

“That’s not my song, though? You must have mistaken it.”

– Hahaha, oh my god

– Isn’t that your song, though??

– Then whose song is it? Haha

Wha… ‘Turning Point’ isn’t by Miro, it’s by artist Mirro… looks like they mixed it up.

[…I think it was ‘Calm Lake.’]

“Oh, I see! That one is nice. It’s Miro’s biggest hit, right?”

If we exclude the songs from the Celestial Realm, I’d say ‘Calm Lake’ probably ranks highest among individual tracks.

The music video views on YouTube are something else too.

– Isn’t ‘Turning Point’ your biggest hit? Haha

– What are you trying to hide now? Haha

More than that, I feel a bit mischievous.

Checking the narrator’s ID, they seem to have a high rank in the fan café, so now I’m thinking it was done on purpose.

“Ah, I have another question.”

[Yes?]

“Is your love interest pretty?”

[Uh?? Oh, of course! She’s super popular.]

– No way, haha, why would someone like that watch your broadcast? Haha

– Are you really flirting with that kind of person?

– I just hope this guy’s delusions aren’t real

“Hmm… is she prettier than me?”

[Huh? Um….]

– ???

– Damn, is that even a question?

– Crazy, right?

I could feel the narrator’s awkwardness through the call due to my sudden question.

Let’s see how they’ll answer.

[W-well, I don’t think so… ]

Oh, wow.

I didn’t expect them to admit that outright.

“Well… you should say that your love interest is prettier.”

[Uh, no, not that it’s not true….]

– Damn, haha, they’re honest, aren’t they?

– But if she watches Miro’s broadcast, wouldn’t she be watching this too?

“Good point you made in the chat; isn’t your love interest currently watching my broadcast?”

[Uh, that part is not concerning. From what I heard, she only watches some YouTube videos now and then.]

“Is it alright if I edit this and post it later?”

[Um, yeah… by then, we should be on good terms, so it should be fine.]

“Wow… look at that confidence. Being a social butterfly isn’t easy, huh?”

– Seriously, it’s not easy, damn

– Is that confidence?

– Damn, don’t watch the broadcast anymore

“You hate social butterflies, right?”

– Damn

– So do you

– Damn, damn…

[Haha… I’m not that type! I like anime!]

“Well, making a statement like that won’t help matter.”

Lately, even social butterflies seem to be into stuff, and who would’ve thought it was true?

How much more will they steal from the outsiders? It’s quite something…

Anyway, I wrapped up the interview after asking more questions that piqued my interest.

Even though it was a counseling session, honestly, there wasn’t much to say.

What’s there to think about? Just go confess your feelings.

If it goes well, great; if not, too bad.

From their profile and attitude, they seemed like an alpha male, so I just wish them the best.

Once we finished with this narrator, I moved on to the next post.

“Now, what story should we check out? So many good ones to choose from.”

– What’s there to choose from, damn

– Miro, I’m really hurting here

– Today’s broadcast is just brutal, seriously.

Looking at the chat, it seems the last narrator really hit home, and everyone seems to be hurting from it.

Well, that’s ironic…

“Who told someone to send in a bizarre story? If it gets filtered, what’s left are only these, right?”

This is something they all brought upon themselves.

Honestly, I didn’t want to do this counseling session either.

– I get it wrong, so should we just end the content now?

– We’re sorry

– Just let it be that you won this one…

“No, no, there’s still more to go. The next story is… someone’s female friend has been flirting with them lately? Oh boy, just reading the title seems fun. What do you think?”

– What do you think, damn!

– Just stop the content; it’s killing me

– Social butterflies are messing with us, damn…

“Alright, let’s read this story. ‘Hello, Miro! I’m someone who came across your year-end 24-hour broadcast on YouTube.’ Wow, a fresh viewer!”

– Damn, another new viewer?

– Let’s dodge this damn thing…

Seeing how frustrated people got today was honestly entertaining.

Even if I lost a bet, it felt like victory.

Ah well, the good feelings kept me reading through the other issues.

**

“Whoa, should we take a break?”

By the time I realized it, I had read through several stories, and quite some time had passed.

– Finally a break

– Should we just turn it off now?

– Today’s been utterly miserable…

– Can we just have a ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms’ episode instead?

– Civilization would work too; please end this torture, ugh

While taking a moment to pause and read the chat, there were plenty of groans filling the room.

Well, it’s understandable; they’ve been listening to others’ romantic troubles for over an hour.

Honestly, apart from romance issues, there were some that caught the eye later on.

Still, questions about relationships between men and women remained the most common.

“However, there seem to be quite a few social butterflies out there. I wonder why they post these relationship problems on my counseling board?”

– Seriously, right…

– It’s probably because you’re a girl, you know?

– Aren’t you an expert??

“Miro doesn’t really know a thing about those male-female relationships…”

– Damn, haha

– So absurd…

– I actually wish I didn’t know…

– Damn, let a male controversy happen and see what unfolds.

Watching the audience’s reactions, I chuckled.

Like I’d ever have any male drama?

Not a chance.

“Well, joking aside, since everyone seems to be struggling, let’s wrap it up here.”

– Thank you…

– If you feel sorry, could you play some League of Legends…?

– What do we do now…?

“Well, since the content’s done, I guess it’s time to sign off.”

– Damn…

And just like that, the counseling segment wrapped up successfully.
