Chapter 203: Beyond The Cheat

[○◇x...※☆?]

Challenging the Guinness World Record, reaching the 58th language.

The person on the other end of the call seemed perplexed by my lack of response and was asking something.

However, I couldn't respond.

Viewers also seemed to notice the anomaly, and the comments section began to stir.

>Iroha-chan, why did you suddenly go silent?

>Is it a microphone issue? (U.S.)

>No, her 3D model's mouth isn't moving either, so I think she's really silent (U.S.)

>Is it because the other person's pronunciation is bad, and you can't understand?

>What language is this in the first place?

>Is this... isn't it Afrikaans? (Arabic)

What, Afrikaans!?

I could feel my cheeks twitching as I read the chats.

It's not a mistake for Afrikaans, right?

Well, that language doesn't even exist.

Embarrassingly enough, I, being less knowledgeable, didn't even know the name of this language.

However, in a stroke of luck, the commenter from earlier kept posting and providing information.

>It's one of the official languages of the Republic of South Africa (Arabic)

>I'm working here in Saudi Arabia as a laborer, but I'm originally from there (Arabic)

>Strictly in terms of the number of speakers, it's actually the newest language derived from European languages (Arabic)

Currently, there are nearly 7,000 languages in the world.

Well, the count can vary depending on how you categorize them, but leave that aside.

Despite the decline in languages and dialects, a new language is stillborn at a rate of approximately 1 in 100.

In this case, when we say "new", it means that it has become an official language, so we're talking on a scale of centuries...

This is bad.

I completely messed up.

I'm familiar with the Republic of South Africa.

As the name suggests, it's a country in the southern part of the African continent.

Angu Ogu rushes over with a worried expression. I return a smile as if to say, "Don't worry.".

In this case, the certification officer has done well—after all, there are 60 languages.

Rather, there hasn't been a single mistake so far is a miracle.

To confirm, they had sent me the list of languages I would be challenged with in advance.

Well, I didn't really read it thoroughly before giving the okay!

<<... Ugh>>

<<Hey, are you really okay!?>>

Angu Ogu embraces my shoulders, and I am holding my head in my hands.

No, seriously, why didn't I check properly at that time?

It can't be helped, right?

The number has increased so much that I can no longer keep track of which languages I can use and which I can't.

And it said something like "referenced from the wiki" so I thought, "They must know more than I do, and it should be correct!".

<<Sigh~>>

Maybe the certification officer didn't make a mistake, and there was an error in the wiki.

After all, if there were languages not listed on the wiki, the viewers would have noticed and reacted immediately.

I never thought that not checking my wiki could be a disadvantage.

If I had been looking, there might have been an opportunity to notice a mistake somewhere.

<<Iroha-san, I'm terribly sorry, but due to the convenience of the caller, if we can't resume in 5 minutes, this challenge will end here. However, fortunately...>>

I shook my head in refusal.

Ending it halfway here is simply not an option.

Because if that happens... undoubtedly, Ah-nee will bring an even more troublesome plan!

For example, a rematch under more challenging conditions!

If that happens, I don't know how much my precious recommendation time will get taken away.

So, I absolutely have to do something here!

<<...Phew~>>

I have no choice. I took a deep breath, focusing.

At this point, it has finally begun, the true Guinness World Record challenge for me.

No, it's not just a record; it's a challenge to surpass the "past"!
