Chapter 34: Emergency Monster & Comment Responses

“So… are we ready?”

Deep within the Tsukigaoka Dungeon.

Dressed as Miru Ayatsuki, Miyu conspicuously held up a medicinal herb in one hand.

“In today’s video, we have everyone’s favorite, Tsukushi-kun, showing off an incredibly dangerous ability☆ Tsukushi-kun, what’s the name of this ability?”

“Uh… well…”

Nervously, I spoke into the smartphone that had been propped up on a stand.

“Well, let’s call it a surprise. This is actually my first time doing it, so please stay tuned.”

—Yes.

Miyu, being the famous streamer that she was, would broadcast anything that seemed likely to garner views.

Her suggestion to broadcast this new ability wasn’t just for trial’s sake but because she thought it would make an interesting stream.

Well, if it makes me money, then it’s more than welcome.

There were no drawbacks, and for me, it wasn’t a bad proposition—but…

“Hm? Tsukushi-kun, what’s wrong?”

“No… I just feel an eerie presence, sort of.”

“An eerie presence?”

“Yes. I can’t quite put it into words, but…”

What should I say? I had been feeling as if someone was “watching” me for a while now. It wasn’t as if this presence was about to attack, but it just felt creepy.

“Ah, come on~ Tsukushi-kun. You know I’m not good with ghosts, right?”

“Haha, sorry. I’m probably just overthinking—”

“—ROOOOOAAAAAR!”

The horrifying roar echoed at that very moment.

It was a loud, powerful voice that felt as if it could shake the entire dungeon.

Although Tsukigaoka Dungeon wasn’t supposed to have any particularly strong monsters, the sudden appearance of a large one suggested something else.

“An emergency monster…?”

Miyu furrowed her brows in puzzlement.

Well, it was understandable. Just recently, the Red Dragon Gilgarias had appeared in a nearby dungeon. The likelihood of emergency monsters appearing consecutively in the same region was said to be extremely low. I hadn’t even considered that something like this would happen here again.

“Ah…”

It seemed the viewers were making similar observations, as Miyu showed me the smartphone.

Ristoria: Something feels off… I think they’ll be fine since Tsukushi-kun is here, but be careful.

Distoria: “50,000 Yen Ticket.” OK, Miru-chan. If you’re going, I won’t stop you. In return, Kirishima boy, you’ll protect her. This is a matter of man-to-man friendship. Got it?

Myu: Ah, Tsukushi-kun close-up, close-up!

Misato: Whoa, so cool!

Yukiria: Well, since Kirishima has received a new ability, I don’t think there’s a problem. He blasted an incredible fire spell just the other day.

Ristoria: Just be cautious about one thing, Kirishima-kun. I’d really like to discuss it with you in person, but there are too many mysterious aspects about your father. All I can say is, be careful around someone named Yayoi Goyama.

Misato: Hm? Who’s that?

Ristoria: I don’t know the details, but I feel like someone with the name Kirishima had trouble with her in the past.

Chocola: h, Yayoi Goyama? I think I’ve heard of her. If I remember correctly, she was heavily criticized on a women’s forum.

Myu: Speaking of Goyama, that’s the same last name as Kento Goyama, who you defeated earlier.

Barufu: Wow, this is getting creepy.

Chocola: I’ll go dig around that old women’s forum. Hang in there, Tsukushi-kun!

Yukiria: Having those forum ladies as allies is super reassuring, isn’t it?

“Yayoi…Goyama…”

I quietly repeated the name that had been written in the comments section.

I’m sure the principal mentioned something similar this morning. If everyone in the comments is bringing it up, it must not be a trivial matter…

“What should we do, Tsukushi-kun? We could pause here and assess the situation,”

“Yeah, let’s think it over for a bit—”
