Chapter 376 – Studio [1]
Rather, why didn't the enemy fight the campers together? There were only less than 50 of them. Annihilating them would be doable if they did it right.
— Fck you FreakingNoob! I will kill you in the next game!
— Shiet! How could you do this to me, fellow viewers?! I wanted to have a fair 1 v 1 duel!
— This damned game is unfair! My neck just got cut slightly and I died
— The arrows rain is cheating, I tell you! It's cheating! We can't even move at all!
Well, the answer was in the chat too. Selfish individuals made teamwork impossible. Especially, since the safe zone was large enough for people to spawn, gathering them before they could run off alone was probably impossible.
'It will become chaos, indeed.' He thought as he watched OperationMLF climb the podium once again.
The blue-haired streamer offered congratulations to the winning team and some words that sounded came from an entertainer. Then, he offered the streamers to enjoy themselves here and said that those who didn't want to stay were free to go.
Max had no other reason to stay. After saying goodbye to his teammates and exchanging contact with some of them, he left the Lobby and returned to his.
And thus… Today's streaming came to an end.
[Livestream Ended!]
He felt more drained than usual even though it was just a 90-minute gaming session. He returned to MadLad's Lobby and chatted with the other three for a while, hearing them complaining about his ruthless plan and game style.
However, they also had to admit that Max was pretty good. Lightning was idolizing Max again, asking for many tips and tricks.
Max decided to share a little bit before he logged out. It was time to re-learn more knowledge about party etiquette and spend time with Lily.
***
A few days later, two days before the party.
Lily suddenly shouted out of nowhere.
"I did it!"
She jumped from the couch she used to lie down on and threw his arms in the air.
Max looked at her in confusion, raising his head from the hologram screen. He didn't understand what happened, but it must be related to the song she wrote.
"Have you finished them all?" He decided to ask as Lily looked pretty happy for it to be just a simple achievement.
"Un! Finished them all!" She beamed with a bright smile as she answered. "7 songs, including the remaster for the first one. It's all finished."
He became happy for her.
Having seen her hard work for the past few days, not even streaming at once and spending her time in front of the screen, he could guess how hard it was to create them.
'The rest would be recording, remixing, and then shooting the music video. There is still much work, but at least she can rest for a while now.' He thought.
"I am happy I can finish before the party." Lily said as she took off her headphones, "I want to at least record that song with you and release it in the morning. Umm, do you think we can record this together today?"
"Today?"
"Un. I want to prepare for the party tomorrow and… Can that scary man make the MV in just a day?"
What a quick-moving schedule. And did she want to abuse BloodSucker that much? Asking to make a music video in just a day.
'Well, he will be able to do it as long as all footage needed to edit it is prepared.'
"I think so," Max answered and rose from his seat, "Are you planning on revealing your identity in the music video too?"
"That's the plan. I will rent the studio first." She said as she went to the balcony and called someone.
"So we have to take footage of her singing, then." He muttered while stroking his chin, thinking about things they could do to make this music video memorable.
While Max knew nothing about music, he had learned how to make a good video to support his streaming career. In his past life, he spent most of his time watching tutorials and many videos.
If he had to say, he knew how to make a video that was out of today's cliché and template. And that said much because most of today's music videos looked similar to each other when he checked them.
'They count on real VR assets too much and neglect what's important. Simplicity.'
A good video didn't need to be complex. Even a video taken from one camera at the same angle could be good if the concept was fitting.
Anyway, they could talk about the music video later. The most important thing was, he had to be careful when revealing Lily's identity as the singer, White Lily. They had to do it with a bang and at the end of the video.
Lily returned from the balcony.
"I have booked it." She exclaimed, getting closer to him. "It's in 2 hours, so I need to prepare fast."
Max smiled wryly. When Lily decided on something, she wouldn't stop until it became reality. He had come to realize this after living with her for a few days.
"Alright, I will also prepare." He said, "My parts didn't change that much, right?"
"Un, well… I added a few parts to make it longer. Is it okay?"
"It's okay. I have tried to sing a lot lately, so I believe my vocal is also warmed up and could take it."
The moment he sang a lot was when he sang Cadence in Viking's Era and then just a casual hum when he was live streaming.
"If I need help, I will definitely ask you, teacher Lily." He grinned at her, making her pout at his teasing attempt. Discover exclusive content at empire
"Teacher… I am not a teacher."
"But I need you to teach me how to sing." He added, patting her head, "That makes you a teacher, no? I will mess up a lot, so please don't blame me for it. I will take a shower and change my clothes now. You prepare what you need for the recording in the meantime. I will also tell BloodSucker about the MV."
Lily watched him leave and enter the bathroom while still pouting. When he disappeared, that expression immediately changed into that of shyness.
"Teaching him… It's the first." She muttered, clenching her fist. "I will make sure he's able to sing. Un, I won't hold back at teaching him. I will be a teacher."
