A Heretic in a Chastity-Reversed World Starts Live Streaming - 5

Chapter 5: Sponsorship

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

The next morning, Yuu’s phone rang.

“Nrgh… Probably the Association…”

The only contacts in his phone were his mother and the Association. Since he hadn’t been in contact with his mother in years, he figured it had to be the Association.

“Hello, this is Kishido speaking.”

“Good morning. Sorry to call so early. Is now a good time?”

“It’s fine. Did something happen?”

“We received a request from a company that saw your stream yesterday first thing this morning. They want you to promote a product. If you’re interested in sponsorship, would you like to hear about it in detail?”

Thump!

Yuu’s chest throbbed. His craving for validation kicked in.

“Could you tell me more about that?”

This was what people commonly call a sponsorship, and this time it was for promoting a new frozen karaage product. Apparently, the company’s PR person had watched Yuu’s nonchalant stream the day before and was so moved they decided to take a shot and reach out to him, even expecting rejection.

“Would this be on another livestream?”

“That’s right. They said they want your honest impressions.”

“If I’m good enough for them, I’ll do it as much as they want. Uh… Will the Association handle the arrangements for me?”

“I’m sure they’ll be happy to hear that and yes, we’ll handle the coordination. The product should arrive tomorrow, so please review it on a livestream at your convenience.”

“Got it!”

That evening, the review sample of frozen karaage arrived at Yuu’s place. He was a bit surprised that it arrived even earlier than Aina had mentioned.

“That was super fast… Well, maybe I’ll do a little teaser on stream tomorrow.”

Incidentally, since Yuu wasn’t registered on any social media platforms like H or others, he never announced his streams in advance. This meant his viewers had to stay extremely alert if they wanted to catch him live.

Yuu himself had no interest in social media and had no plans to sign up for one anytime soon. Normally, social media was essential for efficiently feeding one’s craving for recognition, but even without advance notices, plenty of viewers flocked to his streams on their own. As long as he could get that thrill during his streams, social media was an unnecessary tool for him right now.

◇◇◇

【It’s Announcement Time!】

He set the title of the livestream and immediately booted up Sphere.

—I’ve been waiting for this!

—I’m here for my Yuu-kun fix ~♡

—What’s the announcement?

—I’m waiting naked right now.

“I only started streaming yesterday, but I already got a sponsorship! I’ll be doing that stream tomorrow night, so come watch!”

—A company spotted Yuu-kun on his first day? That’s a top-tier scout

—I will definitely watch it~ ♡

—I hope the content will be spicy~

Concurrent viewers: 16,847.

Even though the stream had barely started, the viewer count already had Yuu riding high. Still, he wanted to reach even greater heights. His short-term goal was to receive 50,000 concurrent viewers at the start of a stream. He set that number in his mind and let the motivation build.

The journey of chasing validation is truly never-ending.

“Hmm… It’s not really a spicy project, sorry to disappoint you all.”

—No worries.

—Anything you do is spicy enough.

—Don’t make Yuu-kun look sad and also, thank you for the treat.

—Kyun!~ ♡

“As an apology, maybe I’ll do whatever the 5000th comment says~”

—!?!!?!?

Even the lurkers jumped in, and the comment speed skyrocketed. Naturally, Yuu was enjoying it all immensely.

(5000th) —Say “I love you♡” please!

Whoa, that’s kinda embarrassing…

—Nice one!

—I’m taking my clothes off right now.

—Hurry! Hurry!

—Wait, is he… Flustered?!

—My maternal instincts are breaking.

—Hah! Yah!! Kuuuu!!!

“Ugh… I think I’m a bit embarrassed…”

He had never in his life said “I love you” before. It was a surprisingly high hurdle, but what lay beyond that hurdle was pleasure for his self-recognition beast. Yuu made up his mind.

“Just this once, okay? …I love you all.”

—My heart is racing…

—Hawaa♡

—I want to be Yuu-kun’s Mama… ♡

—I was listening with headphones. My ears exploded.

—Audio clipping team, move fast!

—I love you toooo!!

—Bet a bunch of people are off comforting themselves now.

—BREAKING: I’m lactating.

—↑Please go to the hospital tomorrow

Comments clearly dropped off and slowed down. The pervy ladies were likely comforting themselves in utter devotion after hearing just that one “I love you”  from Yuu. A few minutes later, a clip of just the “I love you” line was uploaded as material for, of course, personal enjoyment. The devil worked hard, but the pervert worked harder. 

Concurrent viewers: 34,995.

That’s enough for today. It was short, and I’m still kinda embarrassed… But man, that felt so good…

—Yuu-kun, your face is beet red!

—My brain is melting…

—Let’s do something naughty~♡ I’ll be gentle, I promise~♡

—↑Please die

—Yuu-kun belongs to all of us.

“That’s it for today! I’ll see you all again tomorrow, so wait for me!”

Reluctant to end it amid cries of “don’t go,”  comment, Yuu cut the Sphere connection. All that remained was his lingering embarrassment and the echo of his fans’ reaction to his “I love you.” His satisfied craving for validation began to hunger for the next high.

“…This is addictive.”

That day, the audio clip of Yuu saying “I love you” was reportedly played over a million times.

“Yuu♡ I’m… Your number one♡ Nngh… No, I’m gonna—♡ I love you toooo♡ Aaahhhhhh♡♡”

Naturally, Aina, the elite officer at the Association, had also made good use of the audio clip meant for one’s self pleasure. The next day, Aina looked so drained that even those around her were worried about her.

【Everyone’s Favorite Frozen Karaage Review Stream】

“Alright, let’s do this.”

Yuu started the stream for his very first corporate gig: reviewing a new product. He had no experience with food reviews, so he was a little nervous as he activated Sphere.

—Karaage!?

—Yuu-kun’s food review!

—Are you nervous? So cute~ ♡

—I wanna feed Yuu-kun a bite.

—I couldn’t sleep last night.

Concurrent viewers: 21,433.

“Good evening! That’s right. Today I’m reviewing some frozen karaage. I’m going to pop it in the microwave a bit.” (チンして(chinshite)=heating something in the microwave. ‘Chin’ is from ‘ding!’ sound from microwave)

—Give me the peepee! (a pun from ochinchin=d!ck)

—Onee-san will ‘chin’ you~

—No dirty jokes while eating!

—Yuu-kun’s background noises are turning me on…

—↑Agreed

—I’m so hyped for this

“I’m back! This is what I’ll be eating today! It’s called ‘Giant Karaage: Super Garlicky.’”

Yuu especially loved strongly seasoned garlic karaage, so this product hit all the right spots for him.

“It’s so big you can’t eat it in one bite… I love it already. Okay, let’s dig in!”

—I want to be the meat juice.

—That crispy coating sound is way too erotic.

—I just took my panties off!

—↑Stop with the dirty jokes while eating!

—Audio clip team’s gonna be busy again tonight.

“Delicious! I love this level of garlic! I can’t stop myself… I’m going to grab some rice too!”

His unguarded smile pierced right through the hearts of the pervy ladies watching. Yuu completely forgot his nerves and just started eating like he normally did.

—“I can’t stop myself” + “I love you” = Audio clip fusion time. Audio team, move!

—Roger!

—That smile is blinding.

—I want to become a karaage.

—I’m buying this frozen karaage. Thanks for the great content.

—Glad to see he’s relaxed now.

—This is the best review stream ever.

—At this rate, he’s gonna get even more sponsorships.

“Yeah, karaage just goes perfectly with rice! This might be my favorite flavor I’ve ever had. I wish I could share it with all of you.”

—Munching Yuu-kun gives me life.

—He’s too cute…

—The gap from his dungeon mode is insane.

—I want to dominate him, but also be dominated… Thank you for the kink awakening.

The company would later express immense gratitude to Yuu, saying the stream truly conveyed how delicious the product was. And so, the “Giant Karaage: Super Garlicky” became the highest-selling product at launch in the company’s history, resulting in a happy outcome for everyone.

“Thank you for the meal. It was so good. I feel like I’ll want to eat it again really soon…”

Due to that single comment, the company began sending Yuu regular shipments of frozen karaage for free, but that was a story for another day. 

“Alright, that’s it for today! Thanks, everyone! The karaage was amazing, so definitely give it a try!”

―I’ll definitely eat it!

―There’s no one here who won’t buy it.

―The company really knew what they were doing.

―Great job on the stream.

―Good job~ Good job~

―When’s the next stream?

“Ah, I’ll be doing another stream soon. Make sure to come watch me, okay?!”

―Got it!!!

―Of course!

“Alright then, see you next time~”

After successfully wrapping up the corporate-sponsored livestream, he took a breather.

In the end, I basically just ate like usual, huh?

He reflected on his livestream a but, but since the response from the viewers wasn’t bad, he decided to call it a win anyway. With that, Yuu began thinking about the theme for his next stream. A dungeon run? A chill chat? Or maybe something completely different?

“This is a tough one~… Hm? Wait, that’s it. Alright. I’ve decided.”

Following his desire for self-validation, he set his mind on the content for his next livestream. 

“Workout livestream it is!”

He had no way of knowing that, later on, this livestream would be dubbed as a “fap material livestream” by perverted ladies.
