Chapter 266: I Don't Need A Sponsor Or Do I?
Chapter 266: I Don't Need A Sponsor Or Do I?
[Hmm, my words are just entering dirty ears. Isn't there an old saying in South Korea? It is better to see it once than listen a hundred times. So experience it directly. Well, the less fortunate ones might not get the chance. Hahaha!]
"Haru-ssi? Two strange choices suddenly appeared in front of me…" Sang-ah asked.
"I am as lost as you are but there are 11 choices in front of me," Haru said with a lost look on his face.
'Yoo Sang-ah-ssi is quite lucky to have two choices, but Haru-ssi is something else even the protagonist only had 5 at the start,' Dok-ja thought for a bit before he interjected.
"Do it comfortably. Think of it as an aptitude test."
"Aptitude test…" Sang-ah muttered.
"Nobody knows what the situation is anyway. Why not do it comfortably?" Dok-ja said.
"Ah… I understand." Sang-ah nodded.
"I guess you are right," Haru said as he smiled a little before staring into space.
'Damn, no wonder the female employees were all over him, even though it was a little smile, but it sure is something,' Dok-ja thought and looked at his own choices.
'What does this even mean?' Haru thought while looking at his choices.

[A/N: If there are any peps who haven't read ORV(Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint), Try to guess the real names of these constellations No Cheating, and if there are people who have read it, I've made like 5 constellations so try and guess their names, I'll give you a hint for one, The real name of the constellation and their modifier are the same. Good luck!]
'Is this like a riddle? So they won't even tell their real names,' Haru deadpanned at the riddle-like names in front of him, this was like a username. There was only one thing he could think of….
'They are taking this streaming thing too seriously,'
Haru didn't take a liking to this sponsor thingy. He could rack his brain to try and guess these constellations' names, as a matter of fact, he has already guessed a few but that would be a waste of time to put too much thought into this, he had no intention of choosing a sponsor.
Sure, there might be advantages but there are sure to be disadvantages to it, nothing is free after and surely not in a world like this.
'Having someone who can dictate my moves would only limit me, but there is one of them is quite enticing….' Haru thought while looking at the list.
10. Desserts For Days
'.....No, No, Kurumi is the only help I need,' Haru cried as he decided to not choose anyone.
[The Sponsor Selection has Ended]
Haru looked at the words in front of him.
[The Constellation 'Noble Child of The Sun' is sad]
[100 Coins Have Been Sponsored]
'Why are you giving coins if you are sad?' Haru thought that this Constellation was weird.
[The Constellation 'The One Who Hates Food' is feeling complicated]
[100 Coins Have Been Sponsored]
'…' Haru's eyebrows twitched at this one.
[The Constellation 'Third-Rate Writer' is angry]
[He is saying that he'll write a Yaoi smut novel with you as the MC]
'These people are weird, But split the profits with me I know it'll sell quite nicely,' Haru deadpanned at the message.
[The Constellation 'One Who Likes to change Gender' is displeased with your decision]
[He is rolling on the ground saying that you will regret not choosing his awesome help.]
[The Constellation 'She Who Invites' is shaking her head at your inability to understand.]
[200 coins have been sponsored.]
[The Constellation 'Goddess of Love And Beauty' is saying she'll become your sponsor for sure.]
[300 coins have been sponsored.]
[The Constellation 'Noble Child of The Sun' is snorting at the Constellation 'Goddess of Love And Beauty'.]
[400 Coins have been sponsored]
[The Constellation 'Prisoner of The Golden Headband' has gone to prepare some Popcorn]
[The Constellation 'Secretive Plotter' is shaking his head since he already prepared some in advance.]
[The Constellation 'Desserts for Days' is eating parfait shaking his head since you could've had it if you accepted his sponsorship.]
'The Fuck? Do you think you can buy me with one parfait? At least make it 10 or something, I have a reputation to maintain,' Haru thought in anger.
[The Constellation 'One Who Hates Food' is angered by what you've done]
'The Fuck did I do?' Haru shouted in his mind since these constellations looked way more unreliable than they were making themselves to be.
[You haven't selected a Sponsor]
[Haha, is this true…isn't there one interesting choice? Well, yes. There will be another chance.] The Dokkaebi's crescent moon eyes stayed on Haru, Dok-ja, and Queresha for a bit.
[Now Now, everyone has finished the selection. Rest here for a while. I have to go prepare for the next scenario. I'll see you in 10 minutes!] After saying that the Dokkaebi vanished once again.
"Hello My name is Lee Hyun-sung," Hyun-sung came towards Haru after he introduced himself to him.
"Tsugikuni Haru, I can't say it is a pleasure to meet you because of the circumstances," Haru said while shaking Hyun-sung's hand.
'He has a strong grip and he is taller than me,' Hyun-sung looked at his hand and at Haru who was a little taller than him which was something Hyun-sung didn't see often.
"Also Dok-ja-ssi and Haru-ssi thank you for helping us if it wasn't for you guys, we wouldn't have survived," Hyun-sung said while looking at Haru and Dok-ja and pretty much everyone agreed to it.
'Well that is Hyun-sung for you, he is a very polite person just like in the original,' Dok-ja thought while using his skill.

Dok-ja looked at Hyun-sung's attribute window but he still wasn't able to open his own till now.
"Well…." Haru said while looking at Dok-ja bringing the latter out of his thoughts.
Haru drew everyone's attention while Dok-ja went and freed the insects which saved the people who were still alive, But there was one thing that everyone didn't look at….
"...We didn't really plan that," Dok-ja looked a bit awkward.
"That was a coincidence, it somehow worked this time. We were truly lucky," Haru said while shaking his head as Dok-ja nodded. Haru was lucky to be able to get an insect among the 12 people who were fighting.
Dok-ja threw the box before he knew it and didn't keep an insect for him because he wanted to see if Haru would be able to get it, but not only did he get one but he got one with the eggs and helped three other people survive. What happened wasn't something Dok-ja expected.
"Even if that is the case, You two have saved us from something much more horrid because even if we survive speaking personally I don't think I would've been able to live like a person after this," Hyun-sung said with a deep bow towards Haru and Dok-ja. Sang-ah felt the same way while Gil-young stayed close to Dok-ja.
"Our company sure has a lot of competent people," Myung-oh swung his arm around Dok-ja's shoulder while moving a bit away from Haru.
"I know Han Myung-oh-ssi," Dok-ja said.
"That is Finance Head Han for you," Myung-oh frowned.
"Myung-oh, What are you doing?" Haru interjected.
"What are you implying by that Haru….-ssi?" Myung-oh gritted his teeth as he had to call Haru respectfully; it seems the wounds from the last confrontation are yet to be healed.
