Greatest Streamer System

"… Come in."

"Un… Thank you."

In the end, Max couldn't refuse Lily barging into his new apartment. She was adamant about 'helping' his situation and explaining to his viewers that he wouldn't do something like abusing his position.

'She has a nice intention, so it's hard to stop her. Besides, watching videos by myself is boring. It's nice to have company.'

Before going to his apartment earlier, Lily bought a new set of clothes and changed her sweaty exercise clothes. She was now wearing a navy blue oversized shirt that reached her knees and a baseball cap. Her hair was also let down. It was a simple outfit, but she still looked charming in it.

"Have you eaten breakfast yet, Lily?"

"No… I was thinking of ordering a salad or something."

"Then, that's perfect."

Max smiled as he walked to the kitchen that was connected to the living room.

"Feel free to sit anywhere. I will prepare some breakfast and drink for both of us. We should eat before I start my stream. Besides… I still needed to change my clothes afterward."

"Thank you."

He began to take out the breakfast he prepared earlier and made some tea for themselves. Preparing it was easy, as it was just a simple salad. He just added the caesar sauce he bought from the grocery store, and it was done.

"Thanks for waiting."

He put two bowls on the table and sat on the sofa next to Lily. They began to eat in silence. It was a bit sad. If only they didn't need to take care of their calories, Max would've gone all out and prepared some good meals.

After finishing eating, he went to his room to change his clothes. When he opened his closet, he saw the box where he saved the miracle ticket inside. This was the reason why he wasn't worried at all, even if he became the center of the new drama.

Based on its description, the miracle ticket was a way out to settle all his matters. However, he wouldn't use it. It was a waste of such a good item. Also…

<Quest:

- Drama King?!

Being involved or becoming the center of attention because of a blunder is something normal for a streamer.

It might be the fall or the growth spurt, depending on how you settle it. As a streamer, you should've found the way out yourself.

Use this drama to progress and spread your streamer name without using a miracle ticket.

Progress: 0/1

Reward: 3x C-Grade nutritional supplement.

Deadline: 1/3 days

Failure to complete this mission will result in your streamer's reputation. Bad rumors that will hinder your growth will spread in the community. The system judges this is enough penalty.>

He finally got another quest after a few days. There was no way he would waste this chance.

'The reward is good. The effect of the B-Grade nutritional supplement from before has been dismissed slightly. I should be able to stream longer with a C-Grade supplement.'

By no means was the reward big, but it was what he needed the most to get used to his SR faster. The system really looked out for him.

And because he got the quest yesterday when BearGuy0G talked about it in his stream, the deadline had advanced slightly. In short, he just had 2 days to settle this drama, or he would fail to prove himself. And the system didn't seem to add more penalties this time.

'Well, I can only do my best.'

Thinking so, he looked at the mirror. His appearance was neat and looked good. His hair was also combed perfectly. Because this was his 3rd stream IRL, he wanted to look as good as possible. Not to mention, Lily would be there with him.

'At least I want to match her beautiful appearance. When my viewers see her appearance IRL, I bet they will make a fuss again.'

After everything was ready, he returned to the living room. When he walked back, he could hear a soft tune in the air.

"Hmm~ Lala la~"

A soft, melodic voice reached his ear. He thought it was… beautiful. When he got into the living room, he saw Lily on the balcony, facing outside with a bright smile. Her face, lit by sunlight, looked like an angel.

"Lala~ Hmm… huh?"

Noticing his figure, she stopped humming. She turned around and entered the living room, closing the sliding glass behind her.

She looked at his appearance before nodding, "You look ready."

Max was frozen for a while. He felt his heart beating a bit faster. It was… something mysterious for him. But it was something familiar.

'What the…' He screamed in his mind. Blood rushed into his head, making his face turn slightly red, and he hid it with his hand. 'Naaaah, dude… Really? Am I such an easy guy?'

He knew what happened. However, he couldn't believe it.

"Max?"

Lily called out to him once again because he was spacing out.

"Ah," That voice brought him back to reality, "My bad, I was spacing out. I am ready to stream now. There are around 100 videos that I must watch and judge. It may take a long time. So, don't hesitate to tell me if you're tired or want to go home. That's perfectly fine."

"No worries, I am free. I can accompany you until midnight if the need arises."

'That's not it…' Max held back from sighing.

It seemed like she misunderstood what he implied. Her face was brightly lit with expectation, like a kid excited to go on a school trip.

'She's so pure. Does she not realize that she's alone with a guy in his apartment? Not like I will do anything, but still…'

If that was her stance, then he would just respect it. He sighed and went to move the sofas, preparing it to where he made his video a few days ago.

Watching him pushing the couch, Lily decided to help. Thanks to that, the preparation was finished just a few minutes after 10 AM. He was a bit late, but it was understandable.

Both of them sat side by side, separated by a small table. The camera was ready, and the wireless microphone was working. Furthermore, he had already set the clickbait title as usual.

Yes, he purposely did not add any drama in the title or something to show that he didn't care. But… if the viewer brought it up later, he would talk about it.

'It's a trick often used by streamers back then. Heh, I don't care about drama because I do nothing. But if my silence makes you assume something bad, then I will talk. Or something along those lines.'

He was prepared.

"I will start the stream."

"Alright. I am ready."
