Chapter 73: Thread 9: Unveiling Hidden Talents

73: Anonymous Explorer

I just subscribed to Kanakon-chan. From now on, I'll be watching both Kisaragi-kun and Asagao-chan at the same time.

Same here. By the way, Kanakon-chan is a full-time streamer, so she streams a lot during the day. As for Asagao-chan and Kisaragi-kun, they have school and requests, so a daytime streaming slot might be perfect for them.

75: Anonymous Explorer

It couldn't be helped. She was just too cute.

76: Anonymous Explorer

And from now on, she'll be a mid-floor streamer, right? I have to watch.

77: Anonymous Explorer

Kisaragi-kun should train more explorers. Then I'll watch those streamers.

78: Anonymous Explorer

Lol.

79: Anonymous Explorer

It's like Kisaragi-kun is a talent scout for underdog streamers. But honestly, he has a great eye for finding talented people.

80: Anonymous Explorer

He said he's been keeping an eye on her for a while. He definitely watches streams pretty frequently.

81: Anonymous Explorer

Wait, can you really tell just by watching streams? I can't spot any differences.

82: Anonymous Explorer

Don't worry, I can't tell either.

83: Anonymous Explorer

All upper-floor streams look the same to me. The only difference I can spot is the weapons.

84: Anonymous Explorer

Maybe explorers can see the differences more easily? If that's the case, I wish he'd find even more interesting people.

85: Anonymous Explorer

He doesn't need to collaborate with them, but I'd like him to at least introduce skilled streamers.

86: Anonymous Explorer

Like "The next breakout star, as seen by EX"?

87: Anonymous Explorer

But didn't Kanakon-chan gain more viewers because she collaborated with Kisaragi-kun and got advice on becoming a mid-floor streamer?

88: Anonymous Explorer

Dude, just focus on doing one deep-floor stream a month and collaborate the rest of the time to train others.

89: Anonymous Explorer

A training streamer? That's hilarious.

90: Anonymous Explorer

Please don't create a whole new genre of streams.

91: Anonymous Explorer

It's no surprise Kisaragi-kun took notice. I didn't get what was so special about her at first, but by the end of the stream, she was like a different person.

92: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞91

Well, the training was brutal, though.

93: Anonymous Explorer

It can't be helped. To survive the mid-floors, you need to push yourself to that level.

94: Anonymous Explorer

Stop with the "Kisaragi-kun method."

I'd rather take it slow... I don't want to train like I'm about to die.

96: Anonymous Explorer

But in the end, Kisaragi-kun didn't step in to help even once. There were a few close calls, and the comment section was freaking out.

97: Anonymous Explorer

She didn't lose any limbs, right? So it's all good.

98: Anonymous Explorer

Let's recall what Kisaragi-kun casually muttered during the stream:

"If you lose a limb or two, you won't die. And if it happens, can't you just reattach them?"

Is this guy insane?

99: Anonymous Explorer

You have to be a bit crazy to become EX.

100: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞99

Stop being so blunt!

101: Anonymous Explorer

Yeah, but still… there has to be something more to it, right!?

102: Anonymous Explorer

Well, it's the mid-floors we're talking about… maybe it's just necessary?

103: Anonymous Explorer

Y'all are way too conditioned by now.

104: Anonymous Explorer

Meanwhile, the anti-thread exploded again.

105: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞104

Just ignore them.

106: Anonymous Explorer

"They should report this if Kanakon gets hurt. This is practically abuse!"

These are the kind of people we're dealing with. Don't expect to have a rational conversation.

107: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞106

She agreed to the training herself. Also, while he didn't step in, Kisaragi-kun did secretly take care of a few extra monsters and dealt with some that snuck up behind her.

108: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞107

He does it so casually that you barely notice, but he's doing insane stuff.

109: Anonymous Explorer

It really reminds you he's EX level.

110: Anonymous Explorer

I'd be willing to risk some injuries if it meant getting that strong. I want Kisaragi-kun to train me too.

111: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞110

He's mostly just helping people hone their natural talents. It's not something anyone can do. I mean, I have no clue how to circulate magic, so it'd be impossible for me.

112: Anonymous Explorer

Yeah, it's tough.

113: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞110

Even if you paid him, you'd still need talent. Kanakon-chan is good at manipulating and circulating magic, which is why she benefited from the training.

114: Anonymous Explorer

I heard that EX Salaryman is the best at magic manipulation and circulation. He must be a close-combat monster with insane circulation.

115: Anonymous Explorer

He carries a shield too, so I'm betting he uses manipulation to make himself a tank.

116: Anonymous Explorer

Apparently, Kisaragi said Jinguuji Kaede is the most insane when it comes to using magic. Even he doesn't get how she does it.

117: Anonymous Explorer

Wait, not Kamishiro Rion?

118: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞117

I thought so too.

119: Anonymous Explorer

What's the next stream going to be?

120: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞119

Probably more of Kanakon-chan's training, right?

121: Anonymous Explorer

Bring out Jinguuji Kaede next time.

122: Anonymous Explorer

I want to see him dive into the deep floors with EX Salaryman.

123: Anonymous Explorer

EX Salaryman is mostly involved in teaching B rank and higher explorers, so maybe Kisaragi-kun could tag along?

124: Anonymous Explorer

Would that even count as teaching?

125: Anonymous Explorer

Absolutely not. I guarantee it.

126: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞125

The lack of faith is hilarious.

127: Anonymous Explorer

Next, he should collaborate with Panda. I bet after this stream, he's getting flooded with collaboration requests.

128: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞127

Of course, he raised Kanakon-chan from E-rank to D-rank in just one day. But I doubt he'll accept most of the offers.

129: Anonymous Explorer

He usually does pretty casual streams, and even though the collaboration with Kanakon-chan seemed a bit reckless, he clearly did his homework. He knew what kind of weapon she uses, her fighting style, and how well she manipulates magic. So the next new talent discovery collaboration will probably take a while.

130: Anonymous Explorer

That actually makes a lot of sense.
