Chapter 139: Chapter 139 – Organized Drama, Framing?!

Once the stream started, the viewers started to pour in. Due to the drama, many people had been waiting for Max to start his stream.

Thus, the viewers gathering in his stream and watching the loading screen have already broken more than 12K. This wasn't the peak yet. Usually, it would still increase until he was an hour into his stream. Only then would it stabilize until he finished.

"There are many people..."

"It is. I don't expect to get this much audience in a morning stream."

BearGuy0G's video influence was clearly shown. Some of those 12K viewers must be haters. It was also apparent in chat.

— Yooo, is this the guy?

— He's streaming now? How can he report players because he didn't like them?

— Guys, I think we're being raided. Who the heck are they?

— Explain why you reported them! It's unfair!

— This noble me is confused. What the heck is going on? I just finished uploading my contest piece!

— Those guys are capping. Go away if you just want drama. There is nothing wrong with Breeze!

[I have watched BearGuy0G's video. Is that video true?]

Max looked at the chat and sighed. It brought too many curious people, more than what he liked.

'I can only explain it to them before starting. And maybe ban some buzzers.'

He glanced at Lily, worried at how she reacted to seeing the chat. And... just as expected. She looked angry.

"They don't know anything. Ma– Breeze, what are you going to do to them?" She turned to him and asked.

"Let's change the screen, and I will do the intro. Ah, will you introduce yourself too? It's your first appearance IRL, after all."

"Un, I can do that."

"Great. After that, I will briefly explain my stance about this drama and proceed to judge the video. The screens in front of us will be for us to see, and the two behind us will be for the viewers." He pointed at the four hologram screens floating around him as he explained.

Signaling that she understood, Lily held her cheeks and grabbed them, moving them around with her hands before settling with a smile. That was a truly unique way to prepare herself, he thought.

He also smiled friendly before changing the streaming stream to the camera.

"Hello, guys! Hahaha, we are back to my stream! It's a crowded morning. How are you? I hope you guys are fine because I am not. Thankfully, I have my friend with me to make me feel better." He looked at Lily, signaling that it was her turn to introduce herself.

"Lily Spencer, the daughter of the Spencer family. I am... Breeze's friend."

[I was the one who tied those trolls. From what I know in the forum, they only got banned in MidnightHeist and no other games. And yes, many players in the community reported them for trolling. We have proof.]

[Breeze... Fight! There is nothing going on, just go review the first video hehehe...]

Pretending to be oblivious to BearGuy0G's video was probably the only thing he could do now until someone brought it up again. He had no proof that the trolls weren't banned in other games. His credibility with those strangers was absolutely 0.

Thus... he secretly sent a message to Mr. Taka, asking for confirmation that the three trolls were only banned from Midnight Heist and not other games.

Thankfully, his viewers helped him fight the buzzers who believed BearGuy0G and the trolls.

"Well, it seems like something I didn't know happened. Those who know can link it to my Strike account. For now, let's get into the first video. Lily, which one do you want to watch first?"

The hologram screen in front of Max widened and showed a variety of videos with #BreezeContest and #EditorBreeze in their titles. The thumbnail was also varied; some used V-Shelter, and some used Knight Journey.

There was one who used his Midnight Heist's footage. Apparently, Lily was interested in that and pointed at it.

"What about that... Umm, NightyThief? The one with 240K views."

— NightyThief's video? I watched it and it's good! He can edit for real

— Oh, I know this thief! He loves prop hunt and thief videos a lot. To think he will fan-edit Breeze's content

— #BreezeContest, so he only aimed for the contest and not the editor position

— Let's watch it. I also didn't watch the videos for today!

The haters' chat was buried by his real viewers. They were impatient, waiting for the judging process and watching the videos together. It could even be called a watch party now.

"So this guy is that good? Let's watch the video. I have prepared my notes to judge and give him points!" He brought up a small hologram screen, complete with the keyboard, in front of him. "Without further ado, let's play the video!"

As soon as he said that, he pressed the play button. Suspenseful music rang from the speaker.

Dum... Dum dum dum!

The screen faded in from black, showing an urban bank from the sky. And then, it showed Max's masked character looking at the bank in the distance.

"A thief, huh? Let's do this."
