There’s a saying: “Luck is 70% and skill is 30%.”
It means that most of what happens in a person’s life has a significant luck factor involved.
They say it’s 70% luck and 30% skill, right?
No matter how much one hones their skills to make that 30% shine, if luck isn’t on their side, nothing can be done.
And, honestly, I’ve never really been that lucky.
[Ah… Ahhhh…]
[How many times has this person watched the movie? LOL]
[I just got here, what’s going on?]
[I have tons of coupon codes, but why does every result look the same?]
[Wow, Lennok full skin!]
[If they’re giving away a Lennok limited edition skin, maybe it’s better to pass on Camilla and just go with Lennok? – Message deleted]
[Whoa, if you say that…]
[Renting it’s like a sharp knife, LOL. The host is mad now, better behave!]
“Phew…”
Even though it couldn’t possibly be, I rubbed the back of my neck that felt stiff.
I watched the movie on opening day, the second day, and even the third day.
From the first screening to the last, I watched it in full time. I ended up with a whopping 15 coupon codes.
Now, I was live broadcasting, trying each one out with the viewers.
Sure, I could’ve checked them alone beforehand, but this felt much more fun. It was like doing a gacha on a stream!
With that in mind, I started entering the coupon codes, but the results were far from smooth.
-Thank you, Adventurer, for watching Abyss: The New World! Did you enjoy the movie? Here’s your reward!
-Raging Theodora Emote (Rare)
“Hmm…”
[Wow! Theodora!]
[This emote is totally expressing the teacher’s current feelings.]
[If nothing comes out after opening all this, should I just spend money to buy it?]
[That’s the only option.]
[Honestly, buying AP to get it would’ve been cheaper.]
[Seriously, how many times did you watch the movie?]
[A woman repeating the same movie suspiciously often.]
[I heard many others kept watching it just for the skin, not just the host.]
This isn’t what I wanted, you know?
I wanted to proudly draw the Snowflake Queen Camilla on stream, strike a cute V-tube pose, and show the Camilla artisan that this kind of stuff is a piece of cake.
But judging by the situation, it was looking like a public execution show. More like a funeral with a festive touch, you know?
“Last 5… Let’s see what I get.”
[Why am I so nervous about this?]
[Let’s play some background music and go for it.]
[Is this a prayer meter?]
[I saw someone made a probability chart, and it was less than 0.1%.]
[But still higher than a mobile gacha game.]
[If they were really going to go for it, they should have brought 30 cards instead of 15…]
[Then they would have had to take a week off.]
[If Snowflake Queen Camilla shows up, it’ll be legendary, lol.]
In the heavy atmosphere, I started entering the remaining coupon codes one by one.
And the result was….
“Ah….”
Unfortunately, all were losers. The only saving grace was that I got one hero-grade skin, but to me, who was only looking for Camilla, it was just garbage.
“That’s disappointing.”
I had expected it, but I couldn’t hide my disappointment. The viewers, perhaps because they had listened to my story of living in a movie theater even through my break, enthusiastically comforted me.
“Looks like I’ll just have to buy the Snowflake Queen Camilla directly. It would have been great if she came out from a coupon.”
[For real, right? ㅠㅠ]
[So disappointing.]
[Shouldn’t Kayak just get a skin for free through special admission?]
[For real, lol. Everyone else is slacking on Camilla while she’s grinding like crazy.]
[Seems like a lot of Camilla users showed up because of Kayak.]
[Does Eonix not give preferential treatment to the original members?]
I had just come back from watching a movie late last night and immediately turned on the broadcast as soon as I woke up today.
So I hadn’t washed up or eaten anything yet.
I decided to ask the viewers who had come to my stream from early morning for their understanding just one more time.
“Can I quickly run and wash up? I just woke up and turned this on right away.”
[Yeah, go ahead.]
[No wonder you turned it on so fast.]
[I’ll order some food for you, haha.]
“Thank you! I’ll be right back.”
…
And so, I briefly stepped away and returned.
It was 9:20. I thought I’d be quick and just take a moment, but it ended up taking over 20 minutes.
If I really set my mind to it, I could usually finish washing up in 10 minutes. There were many differences from that time, but the biggest factor in taking so long had to be my hair.
It’s long and when I wash it while flailing around, it gets tangled up. It’s surprisingly, or rather, the part that takes the most effort while washing.
Moreover, recently I had come across Vtube videos on how to manage hair to keep it smooth, and it made me overly conscious, so I ended up being extra careful while washing.
Having obtained the beautiful and perfect body of Camilla, I thought I might as well take good care of it.
Anyway, it was when I quickly dried my hair and came back.
“Sorry, did you wait long?”
[You’re back?]
[^^7]
[Feels like we really live together…]
[Oh my]
[Wha-wha-wha-wha-whatt?]
But the reactions in the chat were a bit odd. Somehow, it felt like the number of viewers had increased a lot compared to before.
“…? Did something happen?”
[No no, lol, nothing happened.]
[These guys really can’t lie, lol, it’s so obvious.]
[Something did happen… but you probably don’t need to know.]
[I just came in, so I don’t know.]
“Hmm….”
It seemed like something had happened, but based on the chat, they didn’t want to tell me.
In times like these, there’s always a method. I narrowed my eyes and stared at the chat window, then picked up my phone and accessed the Abyss gallery.
-What’s the gallery master doing right now?
-Looks like they’re showering.
-LOL, how could a worker miss this broadcast?
-So the teacher sings while showering too.
-A legendary gallery broadcasting the sound of a woman washing herself from Thursday morning.
“Hmm.”
I roughly understood why people were mumbling. As I was slightly spying on the gallery and chuckling, someone confessed.
<User ㅇㅇ donated 1,000 won!>
-The teacher, they were enjoying it while listening to the sound of you washing!
“Really?”
[Why are you saying that?]
[You’re the worst;;]
[Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry!]
[It felt like ASMR.]
[But… the broadcast host was wrong for tempting us first.]
[This shower cast in the morning is just too provocative.]
“Shower cast? What’s that?”
The chat stirred up. In the midst of that, I caught onto some common words and inferred their meanings.
So, it means they’re broadcasting the sound of washing. There’s a whole culture around it with a special term for it.
“I didn’t intend to… Shower cast? I didn’t know that was a thing….”
[Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry!]
[It’s so shady that I have no words.]
[In another sense, it’s MZ, huh?]
[Not MZ, it was underground, lol.]
[Is this normal chat for a woman’s broadcast?]
[Even if you hate men, I’ll be calm.]
I felt like the reactions were a bit over the top.
“It’s my first time broadcasting and showering, but you want me to be careful? I mean, I didn’t react that shocked or anything.”
Of course, I just learned now that such words exist and that there are people who like that kind of stuff.
Having spent a long time as an internet ghost, I kind of understood the male psyche to some degree.
I didn’t feel like screaming, “Eww! Gross! Perverts!” like they might think.
Just in case, I should check the replay after the broadcast ends.
But judging from the lack of messages from my two editors who are constantly monitoring my stream, it seemed like there were no issues.
[You’re so nice!]
[LOL, others were freaking out!]
[If it were another room, they’d get banned immediately!]
[There’s no room as chill as the Kayak room.]
[Everything’s allowed except insults towards Camilla and severe harassment…]
[It’s the best among the women!]
I added one more line to ease the atmosphere.
“I think if I were a guy, I wouldn’t have been able to resist. I mean, how can you hold back when you can hear such a beautiful woman showering for free?”
[Huh?]
[You called yourself pretty…]
[??? : I think Camilla’s chest looks a bit smaller now. How do I know? Because Camilla is my lover!]
[Kayak is cute even when she’s full of herself ㅎㅎ]
[If you keep fueling the fantasies of the teacher’s broth lovers… ]
[Taking praise for being a rare beauty to the extreme, Riri was raving about it…]
[Why not just set up a VIP channel and charge for just the sounds?]
[Things like Likey or Patreon are really popular these days.]
“Umm… but that’s a bit much. Like, would it really earn a ton of money? I’m not really desperate for cash, so I don’t think I’d do that. Today, I just started the broadcast early for washing.”
I declined their suggestion to sell shower sounds.
It’s fine if sounds accidentally leak during the broadcast, but that feels like it’s deliberately trying to entice the viewers’ desires. Anyway, way too deep.
And so, after a brief return, I was chatting with the viewers.
