It’s not that kind of malicious broadcast

Chapter 55 – The Deliberation Took a Bit too Long

On the 12th day of my break.

There were several legitimate reasons why my unplanned break had stretched this long, despite my resolution to broadcast diligently.

Truly.

Firstly, after that hour-long walk outside without properly dressing for the weather, my entire body felt achy… It seemed I had caught a cold or the flu.

I wanted to tell everyone that I was taking a break because I was sick, but I didn’t want to appear weak.

Given my deep understanding of the internet, I certainly didn’t want to mention that it was due to my period either.

The posts that flooded the forum right after my first broadcast still linger vividly in my memory.

And, to be honest…

The We Together board… was quite entertaining.

It was burning with fervor as if a massive protest were about to erupt… and naturally, as a human being, I couldn’t help but be curious about how far it would go.

I thought the intensity would naturally die down once they ran out of material to burn, but unfortunately, the firepower had explosively increased ever since I posted the announcement—and the hundred-odd comments on it made the reason quite clear.

… I merely mentioned “date unknown” because I didn’t know when I could broadcast again. Although I felt a bit wronged, I had to accept the small lesson I learned: honesty is not always a virtue for a broadcaster.

However, regardless of my realizations, the scale of the fire was growing larger by the day.

Eventually, a post entirely composed of fire emojis without a single Korean character had climbed to the top of the best posts.

I never knew people loved emojis so much. It was a new piece of knowledge to remember.

Considering how much of a spectacle it was, it almost seemed like a festival. I was actually worried that abruptly starting a broadcast might feel like declaring the end of a festival, and the viewers might not like it.

On the other hand, I had the desire to broadcast and transfer the exact atmosphere of this board to the chatroom. How much fun would it be to conduct a broadcast that made all these lively people collectively shout about how great rogues are?

But in the end, I couldn’t come to a conclusion either way. I spent my days conflicted, watching other streams, pondering, sipping light drinks, browsing the board, and playing games to keep my hands active. Before I knew it, the day would be over.

As I spent time like that, the board became filled with noticeably angry people, but occasionally, someone with an entirely different vibe would turn up and ask innocent questions.

『Title: When Does This Person Usually Broadcaast?』

“I found this channel through G-tube. When should I come to catch a live broadcast?”

– 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

– Ordinary folks, leave now! This is a battlefield!

– We don’t know either, 『expletive』

– Does she even have a G-tube channel?

-ㄴ GetDevoured Fan Tube (link)

-ㄴ HotCup (link) This one is mostly shorts

-ㄴㄴ No official channel, but there are two fan channels;

-ㄴㄴ There’s even a dark fan tube, so there are three LOL Find that one yourself

Fan tubes. I remember that “GetDevoured Fan Tube”. They oddly edited my grand Rogue Revival Movement duel.

For some reason, despite not streaming, this fan tube continued to edit my broadcasts. It seemed some viewers were finding my streams through that too.

Even during the break, gaining new viewers… Is this like how children are born even in times of war? I hope this newcomer avoids joining the protest mob and diligently practices rogue skills.

And so, on the 15th day of my break.

With the viewers seemingly having adopted a mindset of creating their own content when lacking any, they were now joyfully having a campfire, sharing videos, and enjoying themselves.

Some sharp individuals had even appeared, analyzing the gameplay.

『Post Content:』

Here’s Dodat’s perspective.

Post Content:

“This is the first skirmish. I’m not an expert, but it looks like they canceled the second hit mid-combo.

The canceled attack got blocked, but they used the almost non-existent recovery time to retreat and avoid it. But this looks like a pre-input; I can’t tell how they predicted the attack.

(video clip)

– It seems like they purposely dropped the sword, expecting to parry the attack.

– When the punch is thrown, you can see Dodat’s right arm moving, indicating the start of an attack motion. So, the counter registered, and then they finished with an execution move.

– Wow

– Seeing it in slow motion, GetDevoured is really good

– Wow, she really dropped the sword on purpose? Is she crazy LOL LOL

-ㄴ If she failed to counter, she’d just be a fool without a sword LOL LOL

-ㄴ She likes high risk moves

-If only she didn’t play rogue…

-ㄴ You’re definitely getting banned, I guarantee it

-ㄴ Everyone else who swore might be safe but you are definitely getting banned

-ㄴ Why;;

-Want to hit the non-streaming broadcaster harder, upvote here. I’ll start

-ㄴ Upvote

-ㄴ Upvote

-ㄴ Upvote

-ㄴ Upvote Upvote

I upvoted the post and jotted down the ID of the person who left comments implying that rogue is bad in my “Designated Public Defender List” notepad. It’s not like I’d ban someone just for leaving a single comment.

Anyway, it seemed like people were finding small pleasures and living happily.

『Title: The Duo Video Is Up on Arctube????』

“There’s a link:

(link)

Even though they did an offline duo, all the voice chat was recorded, lOL LOL. Her voice is so soothing. The broadcaster was even giving orders, it’s insane.

I feel like my head is going to explode…”

-Such bliss

-Daily sustenance…!

-We’ll savor every bit

-What would we do without Ark?

-ㄴ Her professionalism is on another level

-I’ve decided to be satisfied with this. Watching it five times is as good as a one-hour broadcast

-ㄴ Excuse me, but you’re drooling.

-… Are we now on the bargaining stage of the five stages of grief?

No one actually died, but it felt that way. And so, on the 18th day of my break.

『Title: This is the Saddest Thing』

“Why do we always get stuck with 『expletive』 rogues

When we say we hate rogues, you pull us into custom rooms and beat us up.

Even when we didn’t say we hate rogues, you called us public defenders and dragged us into custom rooms to beat us up.

We quietly said we’d watch rogues, and you kicked us out saying to broadcast rogue content.

Meanwhile, you show amazing two-handed sword Knight gameplay to Dodat, Revan, and Ark’s viewers,

And now you’ve completely disappeared from streaming… Why…?

What did we do so wrong…?”

– Tears falling down…

– Cried my eyes out and upvoted…

– The scariest thing is that even if she streams again, she’ll probably just broadcast rogue content as before

-ㄴ Maybe she’ll mix in some Knight content?

-ㄴㄴ You clearly haven’t watched her streams.

-I guarantee that because people here keep asking for Knight content, she will never broadcast Knight. From what I see, her goal is to broadcast rogue content and annoy the viewers as much as possible. You’re already 『expletive』 by now crying for rogues day and night.

The post, which seemed to have reached the depression stage of the five stages of grief, climbed to the top of the best posts.

… Summarized like that, it did sound… a bit harsh. It was a summary that left me feeling a subtle sense of guilt, not hasty enough to outright call it an “edit from hell”.

I had no intention of streaming Knight again… and the incessant Knight requests on a rogue revival board indeed turned me off from doing so even more…

Hmm…

Even though I had a strong urge to write a post explaining the misunderstanding, I couldn’t see any future where it wouldn’t just ignite another firestorm.

Judging by the atmosphere, the most certain response to satisfy everyone… wasn’t to write another notice but to start streaming instead.

Even though I knew this, I couldn’t bring myself to press the broadcast start button due to concerns about content. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say this was the true reason for the prolonged break.

As a broadcaster, I felt responsible for offering a certain level of quality content. Just because the purpose is righteous doesn’t mean the means can be disregarded.

Even during church outreach, they hand out Choco Pies.

Yeah.

I needed a Choco Pie.

Something that would make people want to stay on my broadcast. How could I show this charm so that people would keep watching my broadcast—and feel drawn to rogues?

The clue for this came surprisingly from another broadcast, and after about four days of preparation, I instinctively felt I had found an answer.

So to summarize, on the 19th day of the break, I finally felt ready for a full-on broadcast.
