8 PM.
This is the time when most streamers on Twitch start their serious broadcasts.
The dark hours after a long day’s work are when the highest number of viewers are wandering around, looking for something fun to watch tonight.
Among them, there is one place that has recently attracted the most people.
– Basic Mana 2nd Period
A simple broadcast title.
However, a broadcast that is absolutely not simple has begun.
[Lilha]
[Lilha!]
[rlhrlhrl]
[Lily, you good?]
[Riira]
[Did something happen?]
[Ao, it went crazy because of Taebaek’s drama yesterday]
[For real LOL]
[Yas’s broadcast, scary]
[Can’t resist the lecture LOL]
[Seating]
[Lily, how’s your body?]
[How many passed?]
[For real, almost reported to the cops]
As countless chats voiced their opinions, Deoen’s basic waiting screen stayed on for about 5 minutes before it was brightly switched on for the actual broadcast.
Lily standing on the podium and four students seated in front of her.
[Oh]
[5]
[Leo, wow]
[Leo and Yena? Crazy LOL]
[Familiar faces]
[Expected Leo, but there are successful ones]
[What’s with the Magical Girls LOL]
[There are four of them]
[Leo’s still cute today]
[For real LOL]
[Yena actually succeeded, huh]
[Yena’s… are you doing this without turning on your solo stream?]
Just like the last period, Yena in her school uniform and Leo with a puzzled expression.
Candy Star looking slightly nervous, and Beriard with an unreadable face.
‘Full of personality.’
It seems it’ll be fun to teach.
“Alright, it’s the second session. How has everyone been this past week?”
[e]
[e]
[I’ve been well]
[LOLOLOLOLOLOL]
[Lily, I couldn’t do well because I was worried]
[For real LOL]
[Seating]
“Before we start the second period on Basic Mana… There are some of you who succeeded in the homework I assigned. You all passed with excellent scores after just a week.”
The screen turned, showcasing each student’s face one by one.
Each one with a striking appearance.
“Alright, before we start the lesson, we need to do self-introductions, right? Who wants to go first?”
[?]
[LOLOLOL]
[?]
[Suddenly?]
[e~]
[Come on, are you gonna disrespect Lily and not introduce yourself when you’re learning directly from her?]
[For real, no manners LOL]
[PTSD is setting in, professor]
[I would have bolted out of there]
[Self-introducing in front of 120,000 people, LOL]
[This is not a talent show, right?]
[Ah]
In the sudden introduction time, as no one was willingly stepping up, someone suddenly stood up.
In the midst of everyone hesitating, someone suddenly stood up.
The person you’d expect to take charge in such a situation.
“Me, Sensei!”
“Yes. Yena, please come up to the stage.”
“Sure!”
Tap. Tap. Tap!
Yena walks up without any sense of tension.
[Yena, what theㅋㅋ]
[If a broadcaster can’t introduce themselves, what are they even doing? ㅋ]
[Yena’s overflowing confidence is infuriatingly amusing]
[ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]
“Hello! I’m the cute, cheerful, and sexy Yena, destined to be the top of Lily Academy! Look forward to it!”
Waaaah! Applause!
Clap clap clap clap clap.
[She’s doing it all by herself ㅋㅋㅋㅋ]
[Yena’s energy is insane]
[Why is Yena so hyped today?]
[ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]
[She’s even leading the applause, too ㅋㅋ]
[I wonder if something happened to Yena ㅋㅋ she looks like she ate something weird]
[She just introduced herself as cute, cheerful, and sexy]
[We need to see her live on Lily’s broadcast, ah]
[Wow]
[Yena’s land is everything]
“Cute, cheerful, and sexy?”
“Yes! Is it weird?”
Yena answers with an indifferent expression.
I’ve felt it before, but she truly is brazen.
[Sexy is a bit ㅋ]
[?]
[Yena’s land is indeed sexy]
[LOLㅋㅋ]
[Sex?y]
■
“I’m Leo. You all should know me by now, right? Hehe, right?”
Next up is Leo.
Surrounded by spirits, she smiled at the camera.
By the way, she’s currently back in a penalized state, unlike a few hours ago.
[Eh]
[If you don’t know Leo, you’re a spy]
[Isn’t the top student Leo?]
[You can’t top Leo ㅋㅋ]
[Leo, who awakened her mana… this can’t be stopped]
“Just so you know, Lord Leo completed this in 2 hours and 12 minutes. Naturally, she was the first to succeed.”
The students in the chat and the lecture hall are in awe.
A speed like this hasn’t been seen in ages.
Of course, the starting conditions were different, but Deoen’s users also had some penalties, so it’s comparable.
Next up is Beriard, who is cloaked in dark robes.
If Candy Star is the type that sparkles and catches the eye wherever she goes, Beriard is the type that blends into darkness and is hard to see.
The inside of his robe is pitch black, and he doesn’t particularly elaborate on his words.
“I’m Beriard. A Black Mage.”
Spreading the power of darkness, Beriard exclaims.
‘Not quite magic enough.’
In a way, he can be compared to Black, but he is significantly weaker than him.
The difference is that ‘depth’ is more superior in this case.
I caught the gist of his desire to keep it short and sent him right back.
She caught it and sent it back just like that.
[That’s a short horse]
[I want to smack that pose right on the back of the head]
[Can’t help it if they’re not good with words, right? LOL]
[Is the next one a magical girl?]
[I’m really curious about her]
[For real, LOL]
“Next up… Candy Star?”
“…”
“Candy Star?”
“Yes, yes! I’m coming out.”
Ugh. Candy Star stood up, tightly closing her eyes.
Her outfit reminded me of a pink princess.
Her voice was very bright, fitting her appearance, but it somehow didn’t feel like her real voice.
Maybe it was a job-related quirk.
‘Now that I think about it, she really had a fit when it came to introductions.’
And I mean a real fit.
If a camera had been on her, the chat window would have been flooded with “what’s wrong with her?”
Hua… Candy Star trudged along like she was being dragged to a slaughterhouse.
[What’s she doing?]
[Looks like she’s shaking]
[Is it PTSD? LOL]
[Yeah, introducing yourself to 120,000 people would be nerve-wracking]
Finally, in front of the table, she looked over at me desperately with her shaking pupils.
“…Is it okay if I don’t do it?”
“Yes.”
“…”
[So firm, Lily LOL]
[Is she a pumpkin or something?]
[What’s going on?]
Sigh. Candy Star let out a deep breath as her pink hair swayed, gritting her teeth.
Hah!
The pink starlight emitted from the candy gem on her chest seeped into her eyes.
“Magical girl! Transform!”
Paaah! The starlight twirled around her in a dazzling display, wrapping her in an overwhelming amount of pink magical power.
[?]
[?]
[?]
With countless hooks.
I have this strange impression that the caster is crying while the transformation continues.
Aside from that, I began to question if such a powerful person had been hidden away.
Finally, her new white boots dramatically struck the podium.
Bam!
“With the power of love and justice! Magical Girl Candy Star is here!!!”
“…”
In that moment, the silence felt as if a high celestial being had walked past, filling the lecture hall.
If I were in that situation, I would think.
“Hm. I guess it’s time to die already.”
[Hahahahahaha]
[LOL]
[Hahahahahaha]
[?]
[What was that, good intro]
[What did I just see]
[I’m dizzy]
[Whoa, whoa… ]
[Is this what it feels like to see Cthulhu?]
Is this the feeling?
[Ah…]
[Great catastrophe]
[LMAO]
[I’m definitely not taking a job like that]
The chat window was in complete chaos.
And it wasn’t just the chat window that was in turmoil.
“…Uh.”
“Wow, amazing.”
“There’s nothing normal about this.”
Beriard, who hadn’t said a word until now, finally spoke up, showcasing the sheer impact of Candy Star.
A technique that freezes everyone in an instant.
Even a grand mage who devoted their life to frost magic might find it impossible.
“Candy Star, you were the best. So please get up.”
“…I want to die.”
“You can’t die. You have a lecture to attend.”
“Fck fck fck fck…”
“Swearing is not allowed in the lecture hall.”
[LMAO]
[Shame Dealer is insane]
[With that level of power, why didn’t I notice until now?]
[For real, that’s gotta be top 100 ranker material]
[This is why hidden ones are all defective]
[Clearly seems embarrassed to use it.]
[It’s hilarious though, LOL]
[But that kind of thing is really scary]
“Uh, is it some kind of penalty? Job? Race?”
“Job…”
“A transformation penalty?”
“…If you introduce yourself to someone you don’t know, you must shout the activation phrase.”
“Ah.”
I didn’t ask for this, but unfortunately, it turned out this way.
There’s no helping it.
“Still, let’s give a big round of applause for Candy Star who put in so much effort!”
Clap clap clap clap clap.
Yena and Leo clapped enthusiastically.
“Waaaaah! You’re the best, the best!”
“You’re so cool, sister!”
[LMAO]
[Shaking my head]
[Shaking my head again]
[Check out the extreme way they’re killing it, LOL]
[Please stop]
[Lily, are you really a demon?]
[Activate PTSD]
[I seriously feel like committing suicide, LOL]
[Considering they’re holding on without leaving, they must really want to listen]
[Magic girl appears in front of 140,000 people! You’d want to die too, LOL]
[Lily looks like she’s having too much fun]
“….Enough.”
“Uh, ahem. Now, please enter, Candy Star.”
“But I’m smiling.”
“You don’t mean that. I’m not the type to scold someone for that.”
I’m normally a laughing person.
I’ve decided to be that way starting today.
