Now That I Have Become a Woman, I Am a Vtuber

Chapter 404




“Let’s do a bit of farming before we go fishing.”

Right after entering the Mark server.

First, I harvested the crops I had planted.

-Whoa, they’ve grown a lot.

-Can you turn the webcam back on??

-So, are we really doing a karaoke broadcast today??

Still, there are people wanting the webcam. Was it really that good?

“Instead of the webcam, check out the full camera here. I’ll sing, but don’t get your hopes too high because it makes me nervous.”

There’s this pretty Miro character showing up in full cam, and yet they keep asking for the webcam.

And it’s not like I should say this, but if they want to see my true form, they can just turn on the TV, right?

Lately, I’ve been focused on drama filming, so I haven’t been doing ads or variety shows, but I’m planning to re-air a few variety shows that were recorded in the past.

Or they can just go to YouTube and watch the highlights collection.

-What I see now is fake…

-Karaoke broadcast, Umai lol

-Da Mi Ro

Then again, maybe the anticipation for me singing got everyone excited?

The viewers seemed really happy.

Moreover, the viewers who were packed earlier are sticking around now that I’ll be singing, instead of logging out of the broadcast.

If I check the Dwitch right now, I bet my broadcast is at the top.

Counting the other members who are broadcasting, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Dwitch has been taken over by the Celestial Realm.

“I’ve planted all the seeds, so should we go fishing now?”

My farm has grown pretty well, and harvesting and planting took quite a bit of time.

Still, I need to keep at it because honestly, fishing doesn’t earn much money.

I have to do some farming in between to save up.

-GG

-Is there a song list for today?

-How long has it been since we sang?

“Hey, don’t get your hopes up.”

But the viewers seem pumped with anticipation, judging by the chat.

Seriously… it’s just an impromptu performance with nothing prepared, so what’s so great about it?

“So, do you have any song requests?”

Packing up my fishing rod, I asked as I headed towards my usual fishing spot.

I’m planning to sing mainly the songs I want, but if anyone has a few requests, I’ll consider singing them.

-J-Pop, gimme!

-Let’s hit the turning point, shall we??

-Please sing at the concert.

“You want a concert song? Well, it might be easy to sing those.”

We arrived at the fishing spot while chatting casually, but the lake was completely empty.

This lake has turned into my exclusive fishing spot since I frequent it.

“I’ll summon our fishing mascot first.”

While fishing, I summoned a seal to the lake.

It’s cute, and when it’s in the water, it performs tricks, so summoning it has become part of the routine.

-Seal-chan, welcome lol

-What about Toma? Are we not seeing him today?

“Toma has his pride… that little guy is enough for the tricks.”

My Toma didn’t serve me just to perform tricks while I’m fishing.

He should be used for something more important.

-???

-Remember when you used him as bragging rights while going around the village? lol

“Anyway, let’s pick some songs first.”

As I swung the fishing rod to start fishing, I pondered what to sing.

I have enough MR, so anything is possible.

If I don’t have one, I can just find it on YouTube.

Since it’s the first song, I had plenty of choices, making it even harder to decide.

Hmm… which song should I go with?

Drip, drip.

Scrolling down through the saved MR list, a suitable song title caught my eye.

Perfect.

“Alright, I’ll start with ‘Serene Lake.’”

-Kyaa lol

-That’ll hit all the feels.

-This is the jam lol

And so.

After a long time, I turned on the echo and started Miro’s karaoke broadcast.

***

Here’s a streamer belonging to The Six wandering around The Six village.

“Everyone, fishing really makes money, right?”

-Yeah, yeah.

-It totally makes money!

-Come on, just do it already!

“No, isn’t that just a whale-hunting launch pad…?”

The streamer, who had only been farming since entering the server, grumbled while packing the fishing rod.

While whining like he hates the world in front of the viewers, the truth is he didn’t really mind fishing.

‘Whatever I do, the viewers always show up.’

From his perspective, The Six server was truly a paradise.

After all, the content is infinitely reproducible, right?

Just walking around could result in meeting other streamers, and he could keep this up for days with so much to do.

There’s not just demand, but plenty of it, so viewer numbers get pumped up.

If he happens to meet another streamer and manages to shine, the influx of viewers would come pouring in.

If he does something noteworthy enough to pop up in the server messages, the viewer influx would duplicate again.

He felt grateful to The Six for creating such a server.

‘I’m glad I joined The Six.’

He was originally a hardcore fan of the Celestial Realm and accepted the offer to get in without thinking twice.

At first, he wondered if joining just for fan reasons was a bit off, but once he was in, he found many benefits that kept him fairly satisfied.

Of course, he secretly hoped he could chat with the members of the Celestial Realm he was a fan of, but that situation didn’t really arise.

No, in fact, he had talked to other Celestial Realm members a few times in this server.

The issue was, he hadn’t managed to say even a single word to ‘her,’ who was the member he had watched the most.

Even in this server, she, who had caught the whale first and obtained a hidden job, was a daunting presence he felt burdened to approach.

If she were just a famous streamer, he could have at least tried to drop a casual word, but… she’s an actual celebrity, which felt miles apart.

Not just any celebrity, but a genuinely famous one who appears on TV.

Even his parents knew about her.

Last time, he heard his mom complimenting how well this pretty girl played the villain role.

Anyway.

Being on the same server and unable to say a word to her, he was content to rattle on about what’s happening in the broadcasts instead.

-Where are you heading??

-You shouldn’t go there lol

-That’s where ‘she’ is!

“Huh? What… Oh, I’ve made it to the lake already.”

Lost in thought, he had wandered all the way near the lake without realizing it.

Naturally, he had no intention of fishing here.

This place… well, what can I say… it’s a no-go zone?

It’s a spot with an invisible sign, after all.

Thinking he should turn back quickly before raising any misunderstandings, he turned his body away.

Going fishing at the pond like this…

“…♪”

…But then, a small singing voice came from the lake.

As a true fan who had been to a concert, he couldn’t forget that sound.

“…Is she singing right now?”

-Yeah, she’s in the karaoke broadcast.

-You should go check it out!

-Should we eavesdrop?

“No, well…”

Normally.

No, if he hadn’t missed the concert, he probably wouldn’t have acted so recklessly. But…

Visions of the concert scene flashed in his mind.

That energy and the singing.

He had been wondering when she would hold another concert.

Carefully making his way toward the lake, he felt like the lumberjack approaching a fairy’s pond.

His heartbeat raced as he climbed the stone steps.

Pushing through the grass, the singing grew louder and his heart raced with excitement.

And just when he arrived secretly and quietly at the edge of the lake…

“Ah?”

…It seemed he wasn’t the only one sneaking around.

“Shh.”

“Stay quiet and sit here.”

Like fishermen lured in by the siren’s call, the people were standing silently in the grass behind the lake, raptly listening to her singing.

“Wow… how does she sing so well without accompaniment?”

“Truly different….”

Watching the streamers mumble quietly about it, he couldn’t help but feel a moment of doubt about whether this was okay, but…

In the middle of the crowd, one person caught his eye.

A character with brown hair wearing a straw hat.

He was the eldest member of the Celestial Realm whom he had talked to a few times.

‘Oh, it’s cool, then.’

Like a guaranteed alibi, seeing him mingled in with the other streamers eased his mind.

If it had been an issue, Anna would have stopped him, right?

So, he blended into the crowd, becoming one of the fishermen listening to the siren’s song.

One song, two songs.

He was entranced, listening to her sing with the same voice he remembered from the last concert.

With his eyes closed, he felt as if he was right there at that moment.

Of course, there was no heat, and the cool air from the air conditioning even made it a bit chilly, but still, it filled him with a wonderful sense of nostalgia.

While he was soaking in a moment that might not come again, suddenly…

“Hmmm, I’ve been so focused on singing that I missed all the fish.”

The siren, who had been singing all along, paused and started chatting with the viewers.

“I’ll sell the fish I got and come back for the next song.”

After confirming to herself by opening and closing a box several times, she turned around, overflowing with fish in her hands.

And then.

“Ah?”

She came face-to-face with the audience who had been quietly enjoying her concert.

“Wahhhh!!!”

“That was amazing!!”

“Encore!!”

Only then did the streamers, who had been silently watching, break out in loud applause together.

A moment that would be etched in the history of The Six Mark server was born.

*

In that moment, Miro was….

“…What?”

She turned around at the cheers and clamor, looking utterly puzzled.

-LOL

-Did she really just notice?? lol

-Was she too focused on the song or what?

-They all went full on silent listening, lol

“Ah, no…”

Wait, when did all this happen…?

No… more importantly, did I leave the Mark mic on while singing?

Eek—

Her face flushed bright red.

…Thank goodness facial recognition doesn’t pick up on skin tone.
