Bonus chapter – Curiosity Killed the Kat

-Flashback 2 days before Team Paradigm's first meeting took place-

"Hyah!"

I slashed the dire wolf that tried to bite me with my left dagger and stabbed the last one that lept onto my blind side with my right dagger.

I typed in the chat.

RandomGirl123: Nice game! Good luck with your homework UwU.

It's fine, the more I act cute and energetic in her streams, the less she would associate my stream account with the real me. I mean, she wouldn't actually think I would type UwU right?

However, it got flooded out quickly with all the people typing their goodbyes.

"Thanks, guys! I'll be introducing my entire team roster this Friday, so stay tuned all right?" She said cheerily before she turned off her stream.

What to do... I don't want to grind but Liz is already done streaming. Let's just watch other streams. Besides, I've been curious about someone ever since her match against my former teammate.

I tapped on the search button again and typed Murasame. The results show many streams but you could easily identify the one on the topmost list as the original. It has 748k current viewers. That's quite a lot on an uneventful weekday. I guess some people have plenty of time on their hands. With the streaming culture becoming this popular, it is probably the norm nowadays. Though I'm also part of those people now that I'm here so I can't really complain.

I opened her stream and I saw her playing 1v1, destroying her opponent easily while silently playing the game. I took a quick look at the stream chat and I noticed something... Weird.

Most of her stream viewers are Japanese based on their usernames. That is to be expected though mainly due to her nationality but thanks to the auto-translate function, I could understand what they were typing. Even though the chat is always flooded with the ongoing rush of words, most of them say almost the same exact lines.

Aoi-chan please marry me!

Murasame is as cool and stoic as always.

Aoi-chan is ignoring us again! Feels good!

Step on me miss Aoi-chan!

Ahhnn, I love how she ignores us like we're pieces of trash!

I sigh.

Japanese stream viewers, I couldn't seem to understand their thought process. Though to be fair there are a lot of weird communities like that. It was even featured on the news about some guys who bought bath water from streamers. I mean who in their right mind would even buy USED BATH WATER and then DRINK IT?! This was a mistake, curiosity got the better of me.

"...I think that is enough watching streams, I'll just go back to grinding."
