Chapter 35

– Hey Parang, about your broadcast…

– Can I be a guest tomorrow?

Parang’s eyes widened.

– Vertea? On the broadcast??

– Honestly, it’s a bit sudden, so I’m surprised. A long-time friend suddenly says, “I’m going to do a broadcast.” Honestly, I can’t quite picture it.

And Vertea broadcasting? I have to admit, there’s a slight sense of unease. She’s good with words and usually speaks well, but the thought of her doing a broadcast is a little…

Vertea is a scholar. She knows a lot and has exceptional learning abilities.

And she enjoys explaining what she knows to others. It’s not about showing off her knowledge or bragging.

It’s a pure desire to spread knowledge because she hopes others would know it too.

Vertea can be a bit intense in that regard.

– On my broadcast?

– It’s fine, but why?

– I just think it looks fun.

– The idea of stopping people from diving isn’t bad either.

– To be honest…

– Monster Fish lecture.

The future of deep-sea broadcasting is bright.

It must have been today’s broadcast of Parang that sparked this idea.

It’s a classic move for her.

– Plus, people in Europe are starting to dive more too. We have to stop it.

“Hmm.”

Parang didn’t outright deny that.

According to the graph Silo showed earlier, the number of diving hunters was steadily decreasing.

It was the same not just in Korea, but abroad too.

A suspicious account posted Parang’s broadcast hot clip, which suspiciously appeared frequently in the global YouTube algorithm.

Initially, Parang brushed it off as “just good luck,” but now she understood the reason.

Simply put, YouTube is owned by Silo.

These days, Korean translation-style chats are gradually increasing.

– Amazing! What is that?

– Mysterious! Pa-lang, you are the best!

– What the hell!! What is that!! What the hell!!

It makes me chuckle every time I see it, holding back laughter.

In essence, it means Parang has become quite a celebrity even abroad.

But despite the popularity, there are still people diving steadily in Europe and America.

– Recently, someone dove down to 500 meters,

Since Parang’s broadcasts only showed the East Sea and the South China Sea, it felt like tales from another world.

When physically far away, it’s natural to feel distant emotionally.

In that sense, if Vertea or other Oceanos members started broadcasting, it would surely have a positive impact.

They would be showing the conditions of the sea where they want to dive.

– So I’m thinking of guest appearing on your broadcast just once to get a feel for it and then focus on activities in Europe.

Parang thought it sounded good. It was a request from one of her closest friends, after all.

She had some ideas ready regarding excessive explanations.

– It’s not impossible.

– Great. Then come out.

– Huh?

– I’m at your house.

“What?!”

In her shock, a voice escaped.

Hurriedly running to the door, there stood Vertea.

In the dark of the night.

“Sorry. I forgot to consider the time difference. It was definitely afternoon when I warped.”

“Oh, right.”

That’s a lie. There’s no way someone who’s constantly diving around the world would forget about time differences.

She just wanted to see Parang’s surprised expression.

Parang, who gets caught in this every time, fell for it again.

“No, how did you… eh, fine. Come in.”

“Thanks.”

Once Vertea entered the house, she skillfully made her way to the guest room.

It’s because she often has to travel globally for whale hunts.

If anything is in the East Sea, they’d stay at Parang’s house; if it’s in the Caribbean, they’d stay at Diego’s.

As a result, your house becomes my house, and my house becomes your house.

Since they all work in combat, everyone is somewhat indifferent to such issues.

“See you tomorrow.”

“Yeah.”

And so, the next day.

[ ??????????????? ]

[ Author: JustNowPosted ]

(Parang’s broadcast capture screen. The title reads ‘East Sea Exploration Day 2 (Collab)’.)

Collab???????

– What the hell, were collabs even possible?

– With who?

Is it that Monster Fish expert from before?

Looks like that might be right based on the context.

– What the hell, the host collabing, haha, never imagined that.

– Since it’s a collab, does that mean no viewer abuse today?

Oh

Oh

Poor beings.

“Hmm~ Hmm~”

Vertea and Parang lay side by side underwater.

The time spent waiting for viewers to join.

Neither of them disliked the feeling of floating in the water, so they positioned their hands behind their heads and crossed their legs.

It felt like lounging on sunbeds by the beach.

Both of them lay in the same position.

Essentially, all the women of Oceanos are beauties.

With someone pretty next to another pretty person, viewers are pleased at both ends.

Moreover, whether it’s Parang or Vertea, they both exude a mysterious aura, so with both of them peacefully floating, it appeared like a painting.

At this moment, viewers could forget the usual brutal broadcasts and truly enjoy some healing.

‘Should I try playing some appropriate music next time?’

Parang thought.

A sound of soft piano music would be nice underwater. It seemed like a good idea.

Glancing with half-opened eyes, she noticed quite a few viewers had joined.

She nudged Vertea who was beside her.

Vertea understood this and stretched out her body, yawning.

As usual, checking the camera and sound levels.

“Ah, ah, can you hear me?”

– It’s awesome!

– It’s clear!

– Who’s next to you?

– Who the heck is that next to you?

Vertea began her fluent self-introduction.

“I’m Vertea Pavron. Nice to meet you.”

With her fluent Korean mixed with some French softness, it gave a somewhat classic vibe.

Her calming tone complemented it perfectly, captivating the viewers enough.

– “What a cutie…”

– “Marry me!”

– “Sorry, Parang…”

“I just want to mention in advance that Vertea is also watching the chat live.”

– “What?!”

– “What?!”

– “Wait…”

“Alright, just continue.”

“Ah, okay.”

Vertea calmly continued her speech.

“Uh, um. I’m Vertea Pavron. I reside in Paris, France, and currently, I research Monster Fish as a profession or a hobby? Either way, it’s what I mostly do. I’ve known Parang for several years, and today I begged her to let me appear because it looked fun. Nice to meet everyone.”

– “Let’s broadcast together then!”

– “That host and that friend, LOL!”

– “So there are two hosts now, LOL!”

– “Does that mean double the viewer abuse?”

– “No, it can’t be!”

For viewers, this was the first time meeting one of Parang’s acquaintances. Immediately, various questions came flooding in through donations and chats.

– ‘ㅇㅇ’ has donated 1000 won! –
[ Is this the person who contacted the host last time about Monster Fish research? ]

“Correct.”

– ‘ㅇㅇ’ has donated 10,000 won! –
[ What’s the host’s personality like usually? ]

“Hmmm.”

Vertea pondered over this question slightly.

“In the water, she’s really cool. Sharp, meticulous, and strong. She’s exactly the image you see on her broadcasts.”

– “How about outside the water?”

“She’s a disaster.”

“Hey!”

– “LOL”

– “Friend says she’s a disaster outside the water.”

Of course, teasing a close friend is the most entertaining.

Yuparang’s cool beauty concept (surprisingly, she thought so herself) was being peeled away once again.

“Everyone, she’s a total disaster outside the water. She trips if you step on her foot, gets gloomy when someone steals her food, and also…”

“Stop it!! Stop!!!”

– “I’ve never seen the host flustered before.”

– “Imagining the host getting gloomy when her food gets stolen is sort of painful.”

– “Where does it hurt?”

That viewer disappeared for a while after that chat.

– “Are you entering the East Sea Hive today?”

– “Right? Is it safe?”

– “I’m a bit worried since she seems to just be a researcher.”

Parang had seen Vertea’s combat strength several times, so she knew it well, but Vertea was a different case.

Since she introduced herself as a researcher, there’s this weak image surrounding her.

But Parang quickly corrected that misunderstanding.

“Don’t worry. Even if Vertea goes into the hive alone, she could take them all out and come back.”

Vertea added on.

“Just because I’m a researcher doesn’t mean I’m weak. To research those things, I usually have to be strong. I need to see them with my own eyes and even take a bite out of their flesh to do research.”

– “Now that you mention it, it makes sense.”

– “Insane.”

The viewers began looking at Vertea a bit differently. From a weak researcher to a maniac Monster Fish lover.

Then, there’s a question that inevitably arises.

– ‘Glowing Monster’ has donated 5,000 won! –
[ If the two of you were to fight, who would win? ]

“She would.”

Without a hint of hesitation, Vertea responded.

The viewers had hoped for a back-and-forth over who would be stronger, and maybe for them to witness an underwater power battle if lucky.

However, Vertea’s confident reply crushed that anticipation in an instant.

– “Wait, does that mean the host is that strong?”

– “Why are you so surprised? The host is strong as hell.”

– “No way they could wipe out a hive alone.”

– “She did that yesterday, will do it today, and again tomorrow.”

– “Come to think of it, that’s true.”

The viewers couldn’t help but realize Parang was an impressive figure.

– ‘ㅇㅇ’ has donated 1,000 won! –
[ Voice recording ]

“She’s a total disaster. If you step on her foot, she…”

“Stop! Stop!”

Parang quickly skipped the voice donation.

– “She gets gloomy when her food is stolen.”

– “I really can’t hold back.”

Watching the chat lampooning her, Parang couldn’t help but smile.

Sometimes this kind of atmosphere where everyone enjoys together isn’t bad.

Moreover, Parang had worried a bit about whether Vertea would fit in with the broadcast.

She seemed to be adapting well, which relieved her.

“Alright, let’s start today’s broadcast. We’ll head into the hive.”

Also, the viewers faintly sensed it. This was different from Parang.

From Vertea, there was somehow a similar vibe to the host.

In how she had Parang shaking in her boots, they recalled the image of Parang torturing them.

And then…

■■■■■■■■■■-!!!

“Alright everyone, take a good look at this mouth. You see the red dots inside, right?”

– “GHHHHH”

– “What the #*%?! Red?!

“Don’t freak out, and look closely. I won’t turn the camera off until you admit you’ve seen it.”

– “Oh man, today’s definitely not easy.”

– “There are two hosts, there are two hosts, there are two hosts.”

Bad premonitions are never wrong.
