[No way, dammit ㅠㅠㅠ]

(Scene of Sera being captured)

I got caught, huh?

– Princess ㅠㅜㅜ

– Ah, lolol

– Now that I’m alone, I can’t even escape, lolol

For real, lol, if you’re missing Director Kim, send a thumbs up, lol.

[Real-time crying Miro..]

(Scene of Sera being dragged away)

Wow…

– Thinking of Miro makes me go, oh..

– This is something else, isn’t it..

– She’s made the broadcast a bit teary, lol

– The squeaking sound is cute, lol

– For real, I thought her face wouldn’t match, but she’s just pretty.

[Miro’s looks are seriously insane]

Sera’s actions are super unlikeable, but it’s a shame she got caught.

– For real, lolol

– She’s basically a villain, lol

– She’s cute, though.

– For real, it’s all about looks for her character.

[Reasons why Sera is likable..]

(Scene compilation of Sera)

With this appearance, acting like a brat just makes her even more gap-moe, lol.

– For real

– She’s seriously pretty.

– Just looking at her face, I can’t hate her, lol.

– For real, it’s just insane.

[Sera’s end, looking at reactions on another site]

Everyone’s feeling sorry for her, lol.

Is this guy really a villain??

– Lol, this dude soaked the protagonist’s friend.

– Every time she shows up, it’s a visual treat…

– For real..

[Sera, Princess, can’t you get freed?]

Nam Kyung-min, you bastard, you have the ability to save her, lol.

– Why would Nam Kyung-min save her? She just got caught, lol.

– For real, lololol

– Honestly, he did hold her back, lol.

– Be thankful for covering for her all this time, lol.

[Nam Kyung-min’s reason for letting Sera get caught..]

Since she’s useless anyway, just sending her to prison until the protagonist deals with the situation, then pull her back out to marry her, yeah.

– That’s right, for real…

– They’ll get married, lol.

– If it were you, would you give up on Sera? lol.

– There’s no chance I could, lol.

[Miro, why don’t you just stop broadcasting and film a drama instead?]

The drama looks fun, lol.

– For real, lol.

– But still, they need to broadcast, lol.

– The drama is indeed fun.

– For real, over the past few weeks, the bait has been crazy, lol.

[Sera’s responses have come in more..]

(Compilation of community reactions about Sera)

The reactions are super positive, but isn’t she getting cast more elsewhere?

– For real, it’s nice, lol.

– Isn’t there any criticism?

– If you look, there are some.

– Who doesn’t get criticized, lol?

– I feel like she was already cast, though.

– Yeah, yeah, seems likely since she proved herself as a lead.

[So, how many years has Miro been acting?]

It doesn’t feel like it’s been that long since she started, yet she succeeded as a lead.

– The world is so unfair, lol.

– For real, what would it feel like to be born with Miro’s looks?

– That’s why Miro always seems so laid-back, lol.

– Ah, lol.

[Meanwhile, Miro is broadcasting right now]

When did she turn it on??

– You guys were trying to bait, and she was already live.

– Really? No way, lol.

– She turned it on right as the drama ended, lol.

– Did these idiots miss it? lol.

– What is Miro doing today?

– The previous zombie game where Miro was absent.

– For real, are they doing that?

– Yep, lol.

[Miro, why are you doing this now?]

Damn, didn’t they have a collab with all three of them months ago? Why start now?

– If Miro’s doing it, someone else has to match, lol.

– For real, Miro’s the standard.

– Enjoy it while it lasts, lol.

– Then do you want to see the Romance of the Three Kingdoms civilization, you jerk?

– Lololol.

[Wow, Miro’s screams are so tasty, lol.]

Feels like I’m hearing this for the first time watching the broadcast.

– ??? Does Miro also scream?

– Just watch, she’ll be startled by zombies.

– Wow, it’s really happening, lol.

[Is that game really that scary?]

Why is Miro so jumpy, lol?

– It’s super scary when you’re alone.

– For real… it’s a horror game.

– There’s a reason they’re playing multi, lol.

– Miro must be easily scared.

– That’s unexpected, I wouldn’t think so.

– She doesn’t play horror games, lol.

[Miro, the scream compilation, lol.]

(Miro scream clips 1)

(Miro scream clips 2)

(Miro scream clips 3)

I’m seriously losing it.

– Whoa…

– Hearing it like this, her voice sounds amazing.

– Wow, does she really not play horror games?

– For real, it’d be nice if she would, though.

– Would she? She hasn’t for three years.

– Damn, after three years she should be able to, right?

[Miro, can’t you just play a horror game for once??]

Is it really true that a virtual YouTuber in her third year hasn’t played a horror game even once?

– It’s Miro, so…

– Ah, damn.

– If Miro says she won’t, she’s just that kind of girl.

– For real, damn, she won’t even play League.

– She gave up on League, you idiot, lol.

– Is the League obsession still alive??

– Lol, for real, it’s strong.

[Wow, look at the mission money piling up.]

The fans are going wild listening to the screams, lol.

– I’ve never seen mission money stack up like that on Miro’s broadcast.

– For real.

– Right now, the fans must feel so secure, give her a thumbs up, lol.

– I’ll start with me, lol.

– Feeling super secure, lol.

– Today, I’ll definitely do it.

– For real.

[Mission money surpassed ten million, lol.]

Let’s jump into the horror game, lol.

– Are you gonna do it?

– If it’s ten, Miro might just do it, lol.

– Officially) She won’t.

– Damn, is that for real?

[??: Do I look like someone who’s lacking a thousand?]

(Link)

Damn, what’s with this?

– Lololol.

– Ah, for someone like Miro, it wouldn’t be sad.

– Guess she must be making a lot of money.

– Does the lead actor look like garbage now??

– I’ve seen them doing commercials lately too.

[??: So, if I just rack up missions, it goes up to a million?]

(Anna looking troubled)

Then I also..?

– You can’t, you jerk, lol.

– Lololol, you’re talking nonsense.

– Greed is truly insatiable, lol.

– You’re saving up for a wedding, aren’t you, lol?

– For real, lol.

– Anna’s getting married??

– Honestly, it wouldn’t be strange whenever she does.

– Damn, is she really thirty now?

– Wow, Anna is really thirty?

– Legendary, lol.

– Miro is having her solo concert at twenty-four with a lead role, and what’s Anna doing??

– Damn, these jerks…

[Miro, but she’s really amazing.]

She’s only just turned twenty-four, and saying it’s not sad she can’t make a thousand doesn’t seem strange, lol.

What’s amazing is that until twenty-one, she lived as an ordinary person, and it’s only been three years since she started streaming.

– Wow, looking at it this way, her growth is so fast.

– Can that happen in such a short time?

– For real, just amazed.

– Really, looking at Miro, it seems talent is everything.

[Miro has talent, but her drive is unreal.]

Whether she’s thoughtless or just easily influenced,

is it really okay to drop out of college because she thinks she can succeed in the audition and register at the Vocal Academy?

In conclusion, it’s a brilliant move, lol.

– Damn, thinking about it, it’s of no joke.

– Lololol.

– This crazy girl;

– Miro is indeed a famous airhead, lol.

– Just pure drive, goat.

– So this is how you succeed as a virtual YouTuber, huh?

– If you have that level of drive and look like Miro, it’s possible.

– Damn, that last part is the key, lol.

***

A few days after playing the Zombie Game alone.

[Since I dug a room, come in.]

“Yes.”

[Once you enter, the mode will automatically install.]

This time, I decided to team up with Loa for multiplayer.

While looking for someone to play the last zombie game with, I specifically invited Loa because she’s good at it.

I heard she’s known as a zombie shredder during collabs.

I’m kind of looking forward to it.

“But did you add a lot of mods?”

“Me? No, I just put in the basics.”

“There are quite a few mods to install when entering the server.”

– Yeah, it’s normally like that.

– The game is old, so there are plenty of user-made mods.

– This game is all about the mods, yeah.

As I entered the server created by Loa, the number of installed mods was a bit high.

So I asked her, and it seems it’s just the norm.

“What mods do you have? Is it very different from vanilla?”

“Not much different? Weapons or food are added, so zombies are tougher, and I added a few new traits and expanded the city on the map, plus a few new events that were originally absent.”

“…?”

That’s quite different, isn’t it?

Is this even the same game anymore?

– Lmao

– Damn, it sounds a lot with all that.

– Ah~ So that’s how it’s done.

Maybe the viewers felt the same because they started chatting, but there weren’t any special reactions, so I guess it’s just the expected norm.

Well, even with mods, the core is still the same.

Having gotten somewhat accustomed to it through single-player, I entered the game without much worry.

“Uh… there are a lot of traits, huh?”

And I hesitated for a moment at the many traits displayed in the character setup.

Why are there so many? What should I pick?

[Put them in according to the concept; I went with a retired soldier.]

“Wow…”

A soldier, huh? Sounds like a gun-wielding role. I guess her title as a zombie shredder isn’t meaningless.

“Then I’ll go with an axe murderer.”

– Whoa whoa whoa

– Look at that wording, lol.

– Zombie shredder and axe murderer combo, whoa.

While guns are good, I think this game’s melee combat has its own charm, so I focused on melee traits and began the game.

As I opened my eyes in a city I was somewhat familiar with, heading towards the fire station to get my axe…

“Uh, uh? That guy is running??”

[I added it with the mod.]

“Whoa!”

When I played in single-player, all the zombies walked.

But now, it seems there’s a zombie running amidst the walking ones, almost like a player.

Having never seen such a pattern during hours of single play, I was taken aback.

Now that I think about it, there seemed to be running zombies when I watched other members play before…

– Running, lol.

– This is getting intense, lol.

– That’s the real deal.

It looks a bit, no, very threatening.

But Loa is with me, and I have the vaccine mod installed…

With a little comfort in my heart, I quickly pushed through and stomped on it to kill it.

“Phew.”

– Whoa, lololol.

– Was that the loser Miro from before?

– She caught it, whoa.

“Is this a big deal?”

– No, not really.

– Chill.

“How should I match the tempo?”

– Lololol.

– You guys are something else…

Anyway, after that, I met up with Loa and began our survival.

[I’ll take care of all the zombies.]

“Wow…”

As expected of the famous shredder, whenever there were zombies, she would effortlessly shred them apart.

Heard she focused on shooting traits, but she was expertly taking out zombies with just her axe like me.

Whether they walked or ran, they all found peace in her hands.

And connected to that, I could comfortably farm.

Just as I was finishing up some farming in the small city, easier than single-player…

[Miro.]

“Yes?”

[Now that you’re getting used to the mode, should I call the other members?]

“Is there anyone that can come now?”

Loa suddenly suggested inviting other members.

– Oh

– Sounds good

– Let’s go, go, go!

– Are we having a group collab?

Though it’s true I only invited Loa, I didn’t do it solely for one person.

“I think it would be great if more come.”

Since we are playing multiplayer, having more people is nice, so I responded, and just moments later, one more person joined.

[I’m here!]

“Welcome.”

– It’s Maho.

– Wow.

– Is today group collab day??

– It’s been a while.

The person who joined was Maho.

I didn’t think she’d enjoy this kind of game, so it was a bit unexpected.

[Maho likes building and decorating houses; she’s our support member.]

“Oh, really?”

Seems like Loa could read my mind as she explained about Maho.

Well, it’s a zombie game, but overall, it’s a survival game, so she might enjoy building and decorating.

[Wait a minute! I need to set up my traits!]

“Take your time.”

So Maho entered the server first.

[Oh, wait! I heard when I came in that Haru is joining too.]

“Is that so?”

A little later, Haru showed up.

[I’m also here!]

“Hurry and come in.”

[Haru likes cars; she’s our vehicle repair specialist.]

“Oh… that’s unexpected?”

[Heard she got interested after the broadcast? The vehicle mod was actually taught by Haru.]

So cars… so she’s in charge of interior development?

If I treat myself and Loa as scouts and combatants, we’ve got a solid balance.

“Speaking of which, it’s been a while since the first generation gathered.”

[Should we invite others too?]

“Well, that would be nice.”

[I’ll give them a call!]

Being sociable, Haru instantly began contacting the other members based on my words.

After sharing the word, shortly after…

[I called Mile!]

“It’s been a while, Mile!”

[Miro, do you realize it’s also been a while for me? We haven’t collabed since year-end!]

“…Ahaha, we met outside once.”

[That’s true?]

Since my solo concert had a group song in the Celestial Realm that required filming, I had met the members once before.

That filming took a really long time… thinking about it now, all memories.

[Oh, by the way, Mile likes making clothes and tools; she’s our repair specialist.]

Loa explained again about Mile.

“Wow, we can leave weapon repairs to her.”

For cars, tools, and overall interiors.

Feels so secure and reliable.

– First-gen assembly, lol.

– When’s the last one coming?

– Isn’t there one left?

And with five of us from the first generation, viewers began searching for Anna, the last one.

I saw she was on air earlier… if it’s Anna’s personality…

[Anna will be joining too; we’re all gathering.]

Yeah, she’ll come.

So, after Anna expressed her intention to join last, it was practically a complete first generation group collab from the Celestial Realm.

[By the way, Anna loves cooking; she’s our chef.]

And again, our human wiki, Loa, enlightened us about Anna.

So cooking, huh.

So Maho is the house, Haru is the car, Mile is the tools, and Anna is cooking?

“…Then who’s doing the fighting?”

As I pondered, I felt something was off.

Right now, we have two for combat and scouts but four for interiors?

– Oh.

– That is weird, lol.

– Why is everyone so oriented towards interior?

This balance seems off; how did it work before?

My question was quickly answered.

[I did it alone.]

Loa’s calm and lonely reply.

…That’s when I realized why she’s known as the zombie shredder.

[Well, now it’s two of us.]

She doesn’t particularly love combat; she simply grew accustomed to taking on all the fights because she was younger.

…Scary, Celestial Realm!

Being older totally rules here…!
