The Villain is Too Good at Broadcasting - Chapter 44

A new bait is needed (2)

After a brief chat at Chicken Box, Dongsoo hyung came to pick me up with his Ferrari.

 

“It’s hot outside, should we have a glass of beer?”

 

“It’s alcoholic, hyung.”

 

“Hey, it’s just a drink, well, let’s grab a beer.”

 

I wondered if there was a place that opens at 4 p.m., but surprisingly, Dongsoo hyung led me to a store he often went to.

 

“It’s my regular place. This is a place where I usually eat lunch, but it turns into a bar in the evening. The food is really good, so trust me.”

 

Entering the store skillfully, Dongsoo hyung ordered two draft beers and simple side dishes, then sat at a corner table.

 

“Are you shooting today?”

 

“Of course.”

 

The amount of sponsorship has not been settled yet, but there was an amount that Dongsoo hyung paid in advance last time.

 

I don’t have to worry about money for a while.

 

I quickly took a sip of the draft beer served in front of us and told Dong Soo-hyung.

 

“I’m permanently suspended from <Samurai Wars>.”

 

Then Dongsoo hyung put down his beer, clenched his fist and bit his lips.

 

He seemed to be holding back his laughter.

 

“I was wondering when you’d be suspended, Keuhuhu.”

 

“Is this funny? It’s actually a piece of content disappearing.”

 

“Hey, honestly, you shouldn’t have said that. You are the one who sucked the most from this content. Don’t you think so?”

 

“Haa…”

 

“Ah right, you can’t even make a secondary character because your physical information is blocked.”

 

“That’s right.”

 

“Kya, I’ll have to suck the honey left over from <Samurai Wars>.”

 

Silver, what do you mean honey?

 

He’d be glad if I didn’t curse much.

 

But let’s just think inwardly. If I tell Dongsoo hyung honestly, he’ll get hurt.

 

It was when the two of us were chatting like that.

 

“Excuse me!”

 

Two women, who were about to pay the bill, approached our table, and Dongsoo hyung glanced at me and answered.

 

“Ah, alright, I’ll take a pic-“

 

“You’re Streamer Sha, right? I saw the video on MeTube! Can we please take one picture together~?”

 

Huh?

 

Me? Not Dongsoo?

 

I was bewildered by the sudden request, but I quickly got up and nodded.

 

“Ah, yes, as much as you like.”

 

“Kyaaa! Hey, come quickly.”

 

“Why, who is this person?”

 

“Why? you know that! The video I showed you earlier!”

 

“Oh, that ninja?”

 

“Yeah yeah!”

 

The friend next to her seemed to not know much about broadcasting, but as soon as the word ‘ninja’ came out,  his eyes widened and he came to my side.

 

Are you a college student?

 

Two young women hugged me from both sides, and suddenly Dongsoo hyung became a photographer.

 

“I’ll take the picture.”

 

“Thank you! Hehe.”

 

“Hey…….”

 

Dongsoo hyung felt something was missing, so he secretly spoke to the woman. But the woman looked at Dongsoo hyung with her eyes wide open.

 

“What?”

 

“…….Nothing.”

 

“Thank you for taking the picture! I’m going to upload this on TGD today!”

 

Oh, the woman, she’s a NEET.

 

Wait a minute.

 

Then don’t you know about Dongsoo hyung?

 

But, as if unwilling to solve our questions, she went out of the store making a fuss with her friend.

 

It’s worth living in the world for a long time.

 

“…Don’t tell this to the others?”

 

“Pffft.”

 

“Ah, you shouldn’t be so excited about this though.”

 

Dongsoo hyung drank beer coolly, sighed and looked at me.

 

Then he smiled and said.

 

“Do you like it?”

 

“Of course…… It’s great.”

 

“Hey, it took me a long time for people to recognize me, and how could you……….

 

“Well, it’s understandable, I admit.”

 

“It’s all thanks to hyung. If hyung didn’t push me…….”

 

“Peel your teeth in moderation. I’m in a good mood, too.”

 

People are always so nice.

 

If it were me, I would have had a slight stomach ache, but Dongsoo hyung didn’t seem like that at all.

 

On the contrary, he was delighted as if it were his own business.

 

Seeing that face, I start to feel sorry.

 

I bumped into Dongsoo hyung’s glass and smiled.

 

But then.

 

Another fan approached our table.

 

This time, there was only one student, a male student wearing a school uniform.

 

No, what kind of store is this with a bunch of NEETs?

 

“Oh my gooood. You’re Lil Fatman, right?”

 

Wait a minute.

 

Something feels ominous from the start?

 

“Uh…… I think that’s right?”

 

“I’m sick of you, Lil Fatman! Keuhuhu, hyung-nim! I subscribed yesterday! My nickname is ‘Lil Fatman’s Hidden Nose Hair’.”

 

“Ah…… yes.”

 

“Hyung-nim! I sponsored a lot yesterday too!”

 

“…Thank you.”

 

“Can I take one picture with you?”

 

From nickname to atmosphere.

 

It was perfect.

 

A devil

 

My instincts were shouting that this guy was evil. However, I had to provide fan service.

 

Didn’t he say he subscribed to my show and sponsored me a lot?

 

The male student crossed my arms and smiled, and Dongsoo hyung couldn’t hold back his laughter and took a picture.

 

“I’m going to school tomorrow and I’m going to be an insider. Kya, such luck! Right, hyung-nim. Can I ask you for one more wish?”

 

…a wish?

 

Is it an illusion that it is considered the most sinister word in the world?

  

 

The boy looked at me with bright eyes, and soon said something vigorously.

 

“Can you give me one industry reward?”

 

“Industry rewards?”

 

“Yes, hyung-nim! I’d like to receive your reward!”

 

“PFFT!”

 

Dongsoo hyung burst out laughing as soon as he heard the student.

 

I looked at the boy with confusion.

 

“No, the industry rewards suddenly…….”

 

“Eiyy, hyung-nim, that’s your trademark, right? I’ve been talking about you even on other streams. Just once, please.”

 

He must be a madman.

 

But I let out a big breath, and then I nodded.

Okay, let’s do it.

 

It’s fan service, right?

 

I quietly put my mouth to the student’s ear. And whispered in a very small voice.

 

“I have to drink now, so scram, you fckin bastard.”

 

Then the boy shook his body and nodded.

 

“Thank you, hyung-nim! I’ll go in as soon as you turn on the broadcast every day! I love you, hyung-nim! Fighting!

 

The boy who brought the storm left the store faster than anyone else.

 

I smiled faintly as I watched the boy move away.

 

“You look good, Huuh? Hey Chansik, are you a superstar?”

 

“Hyung.”

 

“Why?”

 

“Do you like industry rewards, too? I’m just curious.”

 

“……Keuhum, alright, have a drink!”

 

You shouldn’t be drinking like this in the daytime….
