[Emergency Check Patch Notice][103]
04/02 23:00 ~ 04/03 23:59
This is really just one line.
What were you expecting?
But what will you do?
What can you do besides getting super mad or cursing at customer service? LOL
…
So my account was banned for cursing at customer service.

-Wa! I’m not even surprised anymore!
-Cursing at customer service will get you caught, dude;;
└ You should be grateful it ended with just an account ban. LOL
-What are they checking? There’s no announcement and it’s a legendary fail every time. LOL
-Must send a truck now, right?
└ Isn’t this really worth sending?
└ This isn’t a drama board, so no need for the fuss over trucks. LOL
└ Solo queue is a balance disaster, tournaments are rigged, and now emergency patches with no announcements for in-game issues? It’s totally worth it!
-No small business operates like this.
└ Riot Games gets a mysterious win. LOL

Do you see that? Someone who shouldn’t be there is right next to the player.

-How the heck did Adella survive? LOL
-Is this real? It seems plausible, doesn’t it?
-I’ve been following the stream, but it’s just unfair. I must have re-respawned from penalties about 20 times just to save Adella.
└ Exactly, that’s a bug. LOL
└ No way, it’s not!
-Meanwhile, character customization is abysmal.
-It was a fairly complete game, but there are still bugs.
-It’s pretty ridiculous for a no-name streamer to cause an emergency check just by finding a bug. LOL
[It’s disgusting how some are trying to bring NoName down. LOL][185]
Since when did the gallery just broadcast ACK?
Just write something that slightly annoys them and
it’s back to your gallery~
It reeks of promotion~
This streamer is disgusting~
The patterns are just so consistent! LOL
Why is NoName being mentioned so much?
Because in a game that’s been out for years, streaming the story mode, and being a rare streamer who gets immersed in the game, while also having a room leader skill at another level. LOL
Every little thing is seen as a game non-fan. I’ve been playing since launch, idiots! LOL
[Comments]
-Watching his boss fight gives me the same thrill as when Wagal first came out.
└ Back then, nostalgia was a thing, and honestly, NoName is more impressive objectively.
-They praise him as a pro, but anyone who makes gaming their job is a pro; it’s nothing special.
-If you look at the second division, there are so many cringy matches. LOL
-Three years without achieving a Champions Cup level in Korea is something.
-NoName’s identity has already been doxxed overseas.
└ The Yankees don’t hold back!
└ If he was exposed, that would’ve happened a long time ago. LOL The average folks in the doc got doxxed days ago for being forced into streaming.
└ Ultimately, it turned out well, didn’t it?

[Wearsoft’s Annoying Issues][31]
I knew there’d be a problem eventually.
They said they were making a new virtual reality game, took all the main developers from Wagal, and started ruining the operations little by little, leading to a huge mess.
Looks like NoName’s mental state has really collapsed; is he about to quit streaming?
[Comments]
-Anyway, those Wearsoft guys never shake off their old habits.
-Playtime is only a few hours, and customer service can’t provide any clear answers; they just keep saying to wait until the main office’s instructions come down. That’s ridiculous. LOL
-They didn’t mention if they’ll stream tomorrow, did they? I really hope it’s not going to be weeks again!
-I’m worried about the room leader; is his mental state good or bad?
└ In-game, he has a steel mentality, but it feels a bit like a flounder with years of Twish viewer’s instincts.
└ Oh, I felt exactly like that!
[NoName’s Most Adorable Moment][14]
I was gathering reserve energy to upload after the stream ended, but my mood got so wrecked that I’ll just do it tomorrow…
[Comments]
-No matter what, you’ve got to post that before leaving!!!!!!
-It was a perfect story, minus the ending, ah…
-It feels like the world has given birth to all sorts of unfairness.
-I vow not to play Wagal again if Adella isn’t returned!
-Can you please extract the audio of NoName singing? Please!
└ (Author) I’ll upload that tomorrow morning.
[NoName Voice Modulation Extraction][25]
I’m somewhat knowledgeable about this, so I made a voice modulation extraction program for personal use, but I can’t extract NoName’s.
There are two cases for this; either the genders differ completely, or the real voices are almost similar — it’s one of those two.
(Please don’t ask me to share this; you know it’s illegal!)
[Comments]
-Don’t you just use what’s sold at the streaming shop?
└ (Author): No, if it were that easy, just peeling off the overlay would be all that’s needed.
-This is chaotic either way. LOL
└ Rather, it’d be better if it were a child’s voice.
-NoName is like a baby… he needs protection!
[Thinking of going to Wearsoft for a one-person protest. Anyone want to join me?]
*
“Hello.”
[Na-me, how are you? Is everything alright? Have you eaten?]
“Yeah, well… I made do.”
[Ha, listening to you, it sounds like you’ve eaten only one meal again.]
In the dark room, the smartphone screen flickers on and off, illuminating the ceiling.
So, I flipped the phone completely and buried my face into the pillow.
The ongoing silence became awkward, and Professor Chun filled it again.
[Today, your energy seems really low. Is there anything wrong?]
“Nothing’s wrong. I feel totally fine! I might just be a bit tired from all the fun yesterday.”
[Sorry for waking you up early. By the way, Na-me, on the 12th… next Wednesday, do you have time? There’s someone who wants to meet you about the potion license contract, so I’ll come by your research lab for a bit.]
“Oh, I’m fine with that. Anytime works for me.”
[Great! Seems like it hasn’t been long, but it’s nice to hear your voice again. Oh right, I have to go to the academy tomorrow, so I shouldn’t keep you too long. Sweet dreams!]
“Yeah! You too, Professor Chun. Even if it’s not bedtime for you yet.”
The call abruptly ended and the notification light completely disappeared.
The room was just silent.
I felt like I was floating in a world of nothingness with no light or sound.
I think I had so much I wanted to say to Professor Chun during the call, but it ended up being a simple greeting.
The knot in my heart felt so heavy, so I finally rolled over and threw the blanket over my head.
“I saw that somewhere…”
Adella’s silver bob kept popping into my mind.
It felt like a winged cat was circling above my head, toying with me.
Adella is nothing more than an AI.
A character designed and given abilities and stories by a game company called Wearsoft and ultimately placed into an open world.
But it’s not surprising that I first failed to recognize her with silver hair and cat ears and a pair of slashed eyes.
In the photograph, she had really long hair unlike her current bob.
“The pendant of Al Zahab.”
Inside the pendant that the Demon King always carried in his past life was a photo of a person who looked exactly like Adella.
Was it just a coincidence that our faces matched up so well?
Could it be that I’ve reincarnated into the game world?
Such ridiculous thoughts made me chuckle. That can’t be!
For starters, the open world of the game was entirely flat. What I mean is, unlike what flat-earthers claim about the Earth being spherical, there were clear boundaries.
So as you approached the edge of the map, endless inclines would appear. Gravity acts towards the center.
However, in the world of my past life, the size of the Earth was exactly the same as today, to the point of it almost seeming like a parallel world, with the star constellations in the same positions too.
And no matter how realistic the open world was made, sensitive people like me must have certainly felt the alien disconnect from reality.
Everything my body did felt a millisecond slower than usual, or the flow of the Mana Stream appeared systematic rather than random.
But the most plausible hypothesis was completely dismissed as being perfect evidence, which just added to my confusion.
That merged with the overwhelming emptiness flooding in as the broadcast ended, giving me a headache.
20,000! That’s right, nearly 20,000 viewers were watching me.
So I should have been happy, ecstatic even…
Why? Why was that?
Now that I think about it, I ended the stream without even saying goodbye.
At such times, having a drink would make it easier to sort out my thoughts, but of course, there wasn’t a single beer can to be found in the refrigerator.
I wrapped my body-sized pillow with my arms and legs and hugged it tightly.
Just like when I was hugging Niobe to sleep, I might as well act cute with my pillow.
Yeah, that’s right.
There’s really nobody to talk to.
There’s no one to share anything about me.
No one to understand what I feel.
Maybe the reason I called Professor Chun was because I wanted to unload all these burdens.
But it didn’t happen… and the reason is pretty obvious.
Experiencing reincarnation, or realizing my past life truly brings extreme loneliness.
When I turned on the light to check why my pillow case was so damp, I found out it was from my tears.
How embarrassing, I felt like my body had unnecessarily large amounts of tears, making it hard to control my emotions.
I feel like I’m deeply experiencing the saying that humans are slaves to hormones, and while I tried to erase these trivial thoughts, they didn’t fade away easily.
Crunch…
“Ah.”
I bit down hard, suddenly feeling something shift, and a small stone-like thing was chewed in my mouth.
Gently wrapping my tongue around it, I spat it out, and a white object fell onto the bed sheet.
That was my lower tooth.
“Damn it, nothing works out.”
As I felt the spot where my tooth fell out with my tongue, a metallic taste of blood filled my mouth.
In the midst of that, I noticed that the tooth right next door also felt wobbly.
Thud…
I opened my mouth wide and stuck my fingers in to pull out the other one. This time it felt like more blood was gushing out.
I promptly threw both small teeth into the trash bin and lay back down on the bed.
The blood kept flowing, mingling with my saliva and swallowing down my throat with a gulp.
It’s already coming out of my own body, so it wouldn’t hurt to just swallow it.
Compared to the worries I had in my past life, this truly felt trivial, yet if I wanted to sleep comfortably for the night, I felt I should come up with a plan, so I brought my smartphone under the blanket.

[Ugh.]
I left that review and tossed my phone carelessly onto the floor.
Just as I was about to fall asleep, a ding notification sound rang out.
I crawled out of bed and squinted to check the message trickling in.
[Seo Maru: I think I’ll have time tomorrow afternoon; why?]
It was Yuna’s older brother, whom I had messaged before to ask for help with my editing work.
