Time passed.
The assistant ranks of everyone except Pururu changed.
Ding!
◇ Assistant Rank Up ◇
● Subject: Yumi (003)
● Change: RED → BLACK
【Yumi】─Yahoo!
【Pururu】─Black and all that, tsk tsk.
Since Kang Geon helped out when making chicken, Ha Yumi’s rank also increased after providing additional support.
Ding!
◇ Assistant Rank Up ◇
● Subject: Rize Nova (004)
● Change: GOLD → PLATINUM
【Rize Nova】─Whoa. Time really was the answer.
【Pururu】─Ah, I’ve been caught up.
As Rize’s viewing time increased, his rank naturally rose even though he hadn’t provided any support.
Ding!
◇ Assistant Rank Up ◇
● Subject: Mysticism (002)
● Change: RED → BLACK
【Mysticism】─
【Pururu】─Whoa. How are you laughing at being black-ranked?
【Mysticism】─
【Pururu】─Right.
Finally, Mysticism’s rank also increased, thanks to the snack of rice crackers sent over.
And now that Yumi and Missy have been promoted to black rank, they can upload photos.
【Yumi】─[Photo]
【Pururu】─What is this squid? Did you buy it from the fish market?
【Mysticism】─
【Yumi】─It’s me.
【Pururu】─Ah! Sorry, sorry!
【Mysticism】─
【Yumi】─But even though I’m black-ranked, I can still upload photos? Didn’t you say Pururu that it was only from gold rank?
【Pururu】─I thought since my rank jumped two levels at once, it was only possible from gold. Seems black can upload photos and videos too. Haha!
【Yumi】─Videos can’t be uploaded. It seems that’s only possible from gold rank.
【Yumi】─And you said photo uploads cost 1 coin for gold rank? Black rank is 3 coins.
【Pururu】─Haha, platinum photos are free. Videos are 1 coin.
【Yumi】─[Photo]
【Yumi】─[Photo]
【Pururu】─Stop posting selfies, you crazy woman.
【Mysticism】─
While the assistants were actively chatting, Kang Geon had finished his lunch and was taking a nap inside the crystal dwelling.
The monsters were also taking a break from exploration.
Since it could be tiring to explore every day, Kang Geon designated today as a holiday.
【Pururu】─Our little one is sleeping soundly. It’s annoying that he’s sleeping next to Geon, but since he’s a spider, I’ll let it slide.
【Pururu】─But why aren’t the others sleeping?
【Yumi】─Maybe they’re not sleepy. Or they might be on alert for invasions from other monsters.
The assistants continued chatting amongst themselves while watching Kang Geon sleep.
Then, Ha Yumi made a proposal to the other assistants.
【Yumi】─Everyone.
【Yumi】─How about we have a meeting?
【Pururu】─Huh? What’s with this sudden meeting?
【Mysticism】─
【Rize Nova】─You’re saying we should gather to build camaraderie?
【Yumi】─Yes. It would be nice to bond and share information.
【Pururu】─What information are we sharing?
【Yumi】─We can’t watch the broadcast every day, right? So when we miss it, we can tell each other what happened. And we can discuss how to help Geon and coordinate support supplies so they don’t overlap.
【Pururu】─Hmm.
【Rize Nova】─That’s not a bad proposal. But our worlds are all different, so we can’t meet, right?
【Pururu】─Only you are different.
【Mysticism】─
【Yumi】─Oh. Rize, you live in a different world, right? Then, sadly, we’ll have to meet without you.
【Pururu】─Who said we are confirming the meeting? I didn’t agree to meet. Damn.
【Rize Nova】─That’s sad.
【Yumi】─It can’t be helped. If you’re sad, come to Earth.
【Pururu】─Actually, I don’t even exist on Earth. So, no meeting.
【Yumi】─Stop talking nonsense.
Ha Yumi was convinced that Missy and Pururu were humans living on Earth.
There was no possibility that those two were not from Earth.
Initially, the assistants invited by Kang Geon were those saved in his phone contacts.
Unless one had contacts from another world, there couldn’t be a chance that Missy and Pururu were from another world.
【Yumi】─I’ll pick a date.
【Yumi】─Let me know when you’re free this month.
【Pururu】─I said I’m not doing it.
【Mysticism】─
【Yumi】─Stop denying it and quickly let me know when you’re free.
【Pururu】─What do you mean when I’m free? This is crazy!
【Mysticism】─
Pururu and Missy repeatedly declined the meeting proposal, seeming unsatisfied.
Still, Ha Yumi didn’t give up.
She kept encouraging them until they finally couldn’t resist Ha Yumi’s persistence and accepted the meeting proposal.
【Pururu】─Sigh.
【Pururu】─I don’t want to meet with you, Ha Yumi, but I’m curious about how Missy looks, so I’ll go.
【Yumi】─Just tell me when you’re free.
【Pururu】─I’m free on the weekend. I have to work during the week.
【Yumi】─I see you work. No wonder you don’t come to the broadcasts sometimes.
【Pururu】─Yeah, I can’t watch the broadcasts when work is busy. I sneak in a peek when I’m free.
【Yumi】─Thank goodness it’s not openly watching.
【Pururu】─Sometimes I do watch openly. Geon’s broadcast can’t be seen by others. Haha!
【Yumi】─Got it.
【Yumi】─When is Missy free?
【Mysticism】─
【Yumi】─When are you free? Please respond in chat, not just emojis.
【Mysticism】─I’m unemployed.
【Pururu】─Oh. She typed again.
【Yumi】─Unemployed? So does that mean you’re free anytime?
【Mysticism】─Yep.
【Pururu】─You type well. Why didn’t you type before?
【Rize Nova】─Maybe she’s shy.
【Pururu】─Is there anyone shy about typing?
【Yumi】─There are actually quite a few people like that. Anyway, I’m also free on weekends, so let’s have our meeting next Saturday.
【Pururu】─Hmm. I can’t make it next Saturday.
【Yumi】─Why? Do you have an appointment?
【Pururu】─Yep, I have an appointment with myself. I’m planning to lounge around at home that day.
【Yumi】─?
【Mysticism】─
【Rize Nova】─Well, a promise with oneself is important too.
【Yumi】─Don’t act up, just show up on Saturday. I’ll pick the place.
【Pururu】─Cough. Next week seems too sudden, though.
【Yumi】─Just show up!
【Pururu】─Okay…
And thus, the assistants’ meeting was set, excluding Rize who lived in Lumina, not Earth.
*
Kang Geon woke up from his nap.
Deciding to take a break in his hideout and residence today, he continued to interact with the assistants while eating the leftover meat from yesterday.
Then, suddenly.
“Ruru!”
【Pururu】─Huh?
“You said you changed our home password, right?”
【Pururu】─Yeah, I thought a stalker might’ve seen it, so I changed it from 0000 to something else.
“Just let me know the new password. I want to know in advance.”
【Pururu】─Hmm.
Pururu thought for a moment.
The probability was extremely low, but he worried if that stalker might be mixed in with the broadcast.
While he was thinking, Pururu considered.
Is there really a stalker here?
The likelihood is lower than winning the lottery!
With such thoughts, he happily revealed the password he had changed to Kang Geon.
【Pururu】─It’s 7777.
“What? That’s just as bad as 0000!”
【Yumi】─Exactly. If you’re gonna change it, at least put in some effort!
【Pururu】─What’s the difference? 7777 is way safer than 0000.
“…Is that so?”
【Pururu】─Yep, usually thieves might try 0000 just in case, but hardly anyone would attempt 7777. At least that’s what I think.
【Yumi】─How would you know that, Pururu? With your knowledge of thief psychology, were you a former thief?
【Rize Nova】─Were you a rogue, Pururu?
【Pururu】─Shut up!
Just when Pururu typed in the password for Kang Geon’s house in the chat, there was a bang bang bang!
A woman who had been watching Kang Geon’s broadcast hurriedly finished getting ready to go out and rushed out of the house.
Then she called a taxi through a mobile app.
Arriving in front of an old building, she quickly walked inside, stopping in front of a certain door.
She took a deep breath.
After swiping the door lock up, she entered the password.
‘The password is 7777, right?’
Beep beep beep beep.
7777.
She entered the password.
Then a cheerful sound rang out, and the sound of the front door opening was heard.
‘Yay, it opened…!’
The house she came to was Kang Geon’s studio apartment.
And the person who cautiously stepped into Kang Geon’s home was a woman who operated under the nickname “Mysticism” in his broadcasts.
