Greatest Streamer System

"Thanks for waiting! Hehe, I did my best making this."

Nina's voice pulled Max out of his surprise. She finished at a perfect time.

Noticing him spacing out earlier, she asked out of worry while putting two dishes on the table.

"Is there something bothering you?"

"Well, something like that."

He smiled wryly as he scratched his cheek.

"Two of my new friends, famous streamers that I met in that program, asked to play a game together tonight. I felt a bit conflicted whether to agree to their invitation or not."

"Hmm?" Nina hummed, confused, "What's the problem? You guys are just playing together."

"That's the problem."

Max sighed tiredly.

The problem wasn't playing together itself, but who he would play with.

"One of my friends likes having fun… And he will do anything, even if it will kill him, to make everything interesting."

'I can imagine the chaos Flexy caused. He didn't hesitate to lie to me because he had fun seeing me panicking. That damn bastard…'

But that chaos would probably be well-liked by the viewers, boosting his likability.

Also, there was his promise to solo Turret with a knife only.

'I might need to log in first, do the challenge, and then create a new world to play with them. That will be fun.'

His lips curled up into a smile.

'Let's make it a whole mess and drag StoneSword, Flexy, and LilyPixel into it.'

Nina didn't bother him and only smiled while watching. She was about to say something to make him feel better, but that wasn't needed anymore.

'He has found the solution.' She thought in his mind.

She clapped her hands and got Max's attention.

"Now, now, let's think about that later!" She chirped excitedly and took a spoon from her bowl. "For now, let's eat before it gets cold. Hehe, I won't forgive you if you leave even a single scoop of soup in the bowl. You know, chop chop?"

"Ha-haha… Alright. I have finished planning for tonight, so I will enjoy this soup that you made."

"Good." She was satisfied with his answer.

***

Max logged into his Lobby at 3 PM. He planned to deal with his challenge first and a collaboration with those three people tonight after resting for a bit. That was the best idea he could think of without disappointing anyone.

Setting up his stream, he was ready to go anytime. Naturally, he also changed the title.

[Guirella Stream! I have a sudden plan tonight, so let's kill Turret before that! #V-Shelter #Survival #KnifeChallenge]

"Alright."

[Livestream Starts!]

The people who followed Max's channel immediately got the notification of his livestream and gathered.

[Viewers: 6720]

It was indeed a bit low compared to last night, with only half of the peak viewers. However, it was mostly because most people were still at work and didn't expect him to stream at 3 PM.

— What the? Why did he suddenly stream?

— He got a sudden plan? It's not a date, right?

— … Damn it! I swore to myself to get a girlfriend before maidenless Breeze!

— Bastard! Don't say that you have a date with LilyPixel tonight. Don't say it!!!

— *Sob* After I gave myself to you. How can you? BREEEZEEEEE!!!

"Sorry, guys."

After appearing in his shelter and putting the big-ass sniper rifle down, he looked at a camera with a sad look.

"That's the way it is. I got a date planned tonight." He continued while smirking, looking down on those people in chat.

— Noooo!!!

— GODDAMMIT!!!

— My love… You are the one that only showed for a moment. I appreciate this…

— Who's the unluck– the sacrifice that you are dating? And what kind of threat did you use?! SPILL IT!!

— Guys… Did you forget that this motherlicker is handsome? He can get any girl he want to

— Yeah, I can offer myself to him too!

— Wait, guys… Are we sure that he's dating a girl tonight? That's the question!

— Indeed. So, what's the answer, Breeze?

"Heh." Max sneered at the chat.

He acted arrogantly and wiped his nose with his thumb. Then… his smile fell from his face.

"It's with Flexy and StoneSword. Goddammit!" He answered with a sad tone and raised his voice at the end, "I want to play together with a girl, just the two of us. Why are they bothering us!! Why!!! God! Please answer me!!"

Max slumped on the floor while wailing.

— As expected

— I am god, and I say you are fated to be maidenless

— They are real ones. Real bros!

— My boy, you got real friends

— Good job, brother. You protected your sister from this monster!

— Hmm hmm… Approved. Bros before hoes.

"Right, they are good friends. Flexy gave me 15K dollars, and StoneSword brought me to fly in his private jets."

— …

— That's…

— Dude, you should be more grateful for having them as friends!

"Shut up! If they are really good friends, they won't stop me from having fun! I mean, bothering me! They should give us space and support us!"

'Not that I mind.' He added in his mind. 'But they give me a good topic; it's a shame if I miss it.'

He only played along with the viewers while promoting tonight's collaboration. While pretending to be angry and disappointed, he set the atmosphere and told them he would play with Flexy and StoneSword tonight.

It made it more interesting and made viewers curious about what would happen when the three of them met. On one hand, there was angry Max, who got his date ruined, and the others were the culprits behind his anger.

"Damn it. I am so angry that I want to destroy something."

Standing up, he took out his knife and boot knife, holding each in his hands, and stormed out of the shelter.

"Fuck you, Turret! I will kill you and make you a centipede soup! I am not afraid of your big body even without the sniper!!"

— Yeah! That's the way!

— Kill Turret! Imagine it having Flexy's face while you're at it!

— Should I give you a mod to make Turret's head a Flexy or StoneSword's face? It's called DeepFake

— That Infected is doomed

"That's a good idea! I will imagine that and put scars on that smirking face."

With that, he went to the warehouse where Turret spawned.
