Chapter 61
Currently, AI deepfakes were a very sensitive topic in Korea.
However, under the Director’s auspices, this AI deepfake was not considered a sensitive issue.
It was seen as a traditional ethnic game that aimed to satirize from olden times, like mask dancing.
Just looking at the neighboring town, there existed a Director who had learned the dances of the entire world.
“Cute… cute… more cute…”
Ugh…
Every time the video of AI Aurora appeared, genuine hate and disgust bubbled up within me.
“Do you really want to see my cute side that badly…?”
Why on earth do you want to see the Director being cute?
Deep down, I knew the reason, the person who created AI Aurora knew it, and even Akachan, giggling nearby, knew it.
But just knowing the reason didn’t make it any more acceptable.
Due to AI Aurora, chosen by the algorithm of MuTube,
the Akagallery was already occupied by AI Aurora, and the situation was similar in other communities.
“Akachan, how’s the arena update going?”
“Yes, I’ve almost completed all the tasks.”
The arena, a newly prepared PVP content.
It seemed we had been biased towards PVE content for a while.
Now was the perfect opportunity to launch a separate PVP content.
This wasn’t on the list for the upcoming showcase in the second half of the year,
since it wasn’t substantial enough to introduce in a showcase on its own.
“What about the Republic?”
“The Level Republic has already completed its update.”
Level Republic.
A massive tomb called ‘Echo of the Wraith’ located north of the imperial capital.
If you go further up from there, you’d find the Level Republic.
What’s special about the Level Republic is that, firstly, it was ruled by orcs.
You might think, “What kind of republic is ruled by orcs?”
But the politics in Level Republic is solely based on ‘strength.’
It’s a republic formed by an agreement between the beastmen and orcs,
which has led to a logic solely determined by power, a habit that has persisted for a long time.
“There was no such country in my time.”
For a millennium, the Borus Empire maintained its state.
And Elderheim, the land of longevity. Those were the only two.
“Level Republic is just a side story.”
There were no hunting grounds or dungeons.
Just the arena as a PVP content and some small stories from the sub-regions.
And some slight rewards? That was all there was to this sub-region.
It served merely as a launchpad for the arena. That’s about it.
“Sigh…”
Just thinking about AI Aurora made me want to sigh.
I had no intention of enforcing any sanctions as long as they didn’t cross the line.
But it was incredibly difficult to see myself acting cute when I didn’t even do it myself.
I felt like broadcasting with Pera would be like sheer bliss in comparison.
‘Speaking of which, should I turn it on?’
It had been several days since my last stream.
I didn’t quite remember, but it felt like the timing was right to go live.
I moved to the capsule, accessed Akare, and logged in as Pera.
‘By the way, didn’t I have a nun outfit in my avatar?’
Since the official release, they had been consistently releasing new avatars,
and among them was the nun outfit.
Each avatar set was approximately 20,000 won in real money.
Currently, my appearance was not particularly pleasant to behold.
The distinctive full armor of an Inquisitor and a cape emblazoned with a cross.
Without the cross, it was hard to distinguish between a warrior and an Inquisitor,
making me wish for a change in fashion.
So, I impulsively bought the nun outfit avatar.
I later thought, “Why did I buy this?” but
it should definitely feel better to wear than full armor.
While I was trying to think positively, a familiar voice echoed from behind me.
“Pera-nim, could you please look over here?”
“What? When did you get here, Akachan?”
Dressed as a mage, Akachan waved at me.
“Hold the ceremonial silver dagger neatly with both hands.”
“Are you trying to take a screenshot or something?”
Nods—
I was dissatisfied, but I decided to follow Akachan’s instructions for now.
*Click!*
“Is that good enough?”
In response to my question, Akachan flashed a very satisfied expression and gave a thumbs up.
“Perfect. This is top-notch male welfare.”
Seeing someone so delighted over a single screenshot felt strange, but I chose to overlook it.
After all, Akachan hadn’t made any unreasonable requests.
“Now, I need to start the stream…”
Don’t you usually decide what content to do before turning on the stream?
I was really clueless in this area, so I found myself deep in thought.
What should I do once the stream starts?
“Today is the reset day for Elder Lich Raid.”
“Oh, already that time? Just right!”
The boss raid resets weekly.
Wow, it’s been a week since the Sabape incident, hasn’t it?
“Then, the Major Corporation Party is probably running the Elder Lich Raid right now?”
Since Elder Lich Raid can be tackled weekly, it provides significant rewards.
As long as the level gap isn’t overwhelmingly huge, it’s always beneficial to run it.
So I checked the status of the Major Corporation Party online,
and sure enough, they were indeed going through the Elder Lich Raid.
Excluding Pagu, who only streamed live on MuTube,
the combined viewer count of the other three was a whopping 90,000.
90,000. This was the perfect opportunity since so many viewers were missing out right now!
With that thought in mind, I hit the start button for the stream.
[Pera11’s stream has started. – Akashic Records 1 second ago]
[Pera11’s stream title: Elder Lich Raid]
After starting the stream, I began my checks before the Elder Lich Raid.
First among the supplies that would greatly aid in the clear was the holy water.
Isn’t it true that priests don’t need to use holy water? You might question.
But sometimes in an Elder Lich Raid, you can get caught up in patterns leading to absurd outcomes.
To deal with those situations, holy water was absolutely necessary.
Well, depending on the usage, holy water can be used not just for removing debuffs, but also to deal massive damage to undead monsters.
At least for today’s stream, I wasn’t planning to use holy water in that way.
That information wasn’t yet revealed among the users.
“Akachan, how many holy waters do you have left?”
“About five.”
“That should be enough.”
I had a total of six holy waters left in my inventory.
Anyway, I probably wouldn’t use more than three, so it was okay to set off like this.
By now I imagined a decent number of viewers had gathered.
With that thought, I opened the chat window.
―――
Wow, look at this
Wow, it looks like you’re taking care of all the orphanage kids by yourself
Crazy dudes
This is a domestic praise gallery
Freaking nutjobs lol
Wow, just wow lol
Huh lol bang lol boom lol
Wow, baby food dispenser lol
―――
A rather chaotic chat greeted me.
***
Inquisitor, Pera.
When she turned on her first broadcast, she was clad in full armor.
Full armor was equipment that only Paladins and Inquisitors could wear among the priest class.
You’d think she didn’t wear full armor during her priest days?
That thought occurred, but unfortunately,
even during her priest days, Pera wore gear that did not highlight her figure.
Looking at the nun outfits from various fantasy novels and the attire of the saint who often becomes the heroine,
one might doubt whether this was a saint or a prostitute, as the skin exposure was considerable.
However, unlike such shameless clothing, Akare’s church preferred strictly proper attire with no exposure whatsoever.
Thus, the nun outfit set sold in the avatar shop was like hope for both priests and cultists.
Basics of avatars could also be worn by NPCs you have good rapport with.
Did Raven become the church’s disciple through a job event?
In that moment, they would don the nun outfit and shout “Iluwait!” while sharing love.
But Pera put on the nun outfit set?
For the first time, her previously concealed figure was revealed by the full armor,
and it even looked remarkably good, so intense reactions were quite understandable.
Most importantly, Akare’s character customization had various constraints.
To prevent scenarios that could be seen as suspect, whether it was an overly young child being doted on or other undesirable uses.
This also applied to the precious parts of men or women’s breast sizes.
Men’s precious parts were to be higher than the global average.
For women, the cup size was capped at D. Their breast size couldn’t exceed that.
There was only one way to lift these constraints.
That was if your real-life body was larger than D-cup.
In essence, Pera’s real size exceeds the constraints!
That leads to such a conclusion.

Wow, look at that lol [6]
I’ve already written 5,000 characters in my notebook [12]
The chat is so absurd lol [5]

―――
From Pera’s stream inception,
the wise ones(?) fled to the gallery and poured out their base desires.
At least it was a better option than directly defecating in the chat,
but one wrong move could lead to a hardcore life start.
“…”
Upon witnessing the lowly chat, Pera froze up.
Being treated this way while acting as a Director was familiar to her.
But being the subject of such base desires in real time was new, so she felt a bit flustered.
However, Pera soon collected her thoughts and sighed.
She then scrolled the chat to pause at the most heavily laced section of depravity.
“Everyone.”
―――
Gasp
This is shocking, right?
Wow, this is serious
Let’s squeeze out a settlement
Crazy dudes can’t hold back
This is a bit…
―――
Even other men shook their heads at the level of sleaze displayed in the chat.
Because of that, no matter what Pera said, it wouldn’t seem strange.
In the awkward silence, what followed from Pera astonished everyone.
“The chat isn’t a restroom where you can freely use it… so, please, restrain yourselves.”
I expected words related to lawsuits to come out, but instead came a comment to lighten the atmosphere and a warning for those who crossed the line.
“This time, I’ll just temporary block them, but next time, I will ban them.”
She addressed the viewers overstepping the bounds as if it didn’t bother her in the slightest.
In that moment, everyone shared one common thought.
Is she an angel?
No, she’s a saint.
Moreover, a saint with a very big heart.
Jingle-!

[ㅇㅇ has donated 10,000 won]
– Who is the person next to you?
―――
“The person next to me… is a acquaintance. They decided to become my broadcast manager starting today.”
“…?”
Suddenly pointed out, Akachan gestured to herself with a finger.
Seeing that, Pera stared at her wide-eyed,
and overwhelmed, Akachan had no choice but to nod in agreement.
“Isn’t this the Golden Sun user who tried to take my precious party member during the Sabape incident?”
―――
Season 2 Ban ㅋㅋ
No wonder this feels familiar
Gasp
Is that person combat power D-grade or higher? – [Message deleted.]
Does that wizard have a big heart, too? – [Message deleted.]
I recognized them
Oh, right
– [Akachan has been appointed as manager.]
―――
Seeing Akachan in action made Pera switch to the vanguard.
There, she formed a party with Akachan and was about to enter the Elder Lich Raid.
Jingle-!
―――
[ㅇㅇ has donated 10,000 won]
– Could it be that this person has such extensive knowledge of Akare that they’re dubbed the saint who eats rice, a core player, a crazy girl, a Menhera beautiful girl, and the manic Inquisitor who judges every cult in sight while shout-out-ing in-game galleries, Pera-nim?
―――
“…..”
―――
Yo yo yo lol
Is this for real?
Summarize that long one
Pera = ㅁㅁㅁ is cleverly worded lol
And it’s an addition too, damn lol
Hey hey hey
―――
Shocked by the fluid initiation, Pera finally let out a timid resistance.
“I’m really not that kind of person…”
