After Accidentally Helping a Famous Streamer Who Forgot to Turn Off Her Dungeon Stream, I Began to Go Viral as a Legendary Explorer ～ The Introverted Me Accidentally Dominating with My Mysterious Skill 'Ignore Rules' - Chapter 38: Karma - Yayoi's Miscalculation

Chapter 38: Karma – Yayoi’s Miscalculation

“What…why…⁉️”

That night, Yayoi Goyama stumbled upon a shocking article on her personal computer.

—Leaf King Chameleon’s Pheromones Have No Effect on Tsukushi Kirishima

—The Birth of a Young and Gentlemanly Hero: Tsukushi Kirishima

—Tsukushi Kirishima’s Popularity Among Women Skyrockets

Unbelievable articles like these were scattered all over the internet.

“Absurd… it’s just absurd!”

Earlier in the evening, Yayoi had spotted a boy and a girl entering the Tsukigaoka Dungeon.

Or, to be more precise, she had been tailing that man the entire time.

Tsukushi Kirishima.

She had pondered various ways to ruin him, but, well, the age-old method to bring a man down was a honey trap. So, this time, she thought to use a woman to tarnish his reputation.

Once she made that decision, the rest was simple.

Yayoi’s possessed skill was “Summon Monster.”

Among the monsters she could summon was the Leaf King Chameleon—a creature that released a massive amount of pheromones upon death.

So, she wandered around the dungeon until she found a suitable young woman. She planned to expose the woman’s clothing—thus making Tsukushi Kirishima lose his rationality.

Miru Ayatsuki was live-streaming at the scene, so all that was left was to broadcast this incident nationwide.

People in the know might realize it was the “Leaf King’s Pheromones” at play, but humans are creatures swayed by popular opinion. Any correct viewpoints would have been suppressed, and Tsukushi Kirishima’s reputation should have started to plummet.

But what actually happened when the dust settled? Far from tarnishing, Tsukushi Kirishima’s reputation had somehow been elevated.

Despite being subjected to the Leaf King Chameleon’s pheromones, he appeared unfazed.

Miru Ayatsuki reportedly asked him about it in her video, and his response was infuriatingly simple.

—”Eh? Oh, I’m just a hopeless introvert, you know. I wouldn’t even think of suddenly lunging at a girl, rationality or not.”

Exactly. Tsukushi Kirishima had a high level of resistance to women due to the intense bullying he had experienced in school. A mere whiff of pheromones wasn’t enough to dismantle his self-control.

“Why…why this…‼️”

Watching the video, Yayoi couldn’t help but slam her desk in frustration.

Who would have thought that her instructions for her son to bully him would backfire like this! And even more shockingly, that it would end up elevating his reputation!

It seems his popularity among women is soaring now. He’s being hailed as an unusually hard-working individual who has bravely weathered difficult days.

The whole situation was simply infuriating and unforgivable for Yayoi.

And there was more to be concerned about.

—Hey, it looks like this was orchestrated by someone named Yayoi Goyama. 

—Wait, Goyama? Isn’t that the same surname as the person who was crying and screaming before?

Incredibly, Yayoi’s true identity was gradually being revealed to the online community.

It had been quite some time since she had arranged for Yuichi Kirishima to be killed, but she never imagined that this would be dug up.

Originally, she had planned to slowly ruin Tsukushi Kirishima, but it seemed that luxury was no longer available to her.

She had to deal with him quickly to return to a peaceful life, both mentally and physically. After all, the downfall of someone as beautiful and intelligent as herself would be a loss for humanity as a whole.

“Speaking of which… that Miru Ayatsuki…”

When Tsukushi Kirishima had entered the Tsukigaoka Dungeon, he was apparently accompanied by a girl from his school.

When she followed them, that girl turned out to be “Miru Ayatsuki.” She had felt a sense of incongruity at the time, but…

“Could it be…? So that’s what’s happening‼”

When she realized, Yayoi abruptly stood up.

—Miru Ayatsuki is at Tsukishima High School.

—That very girl who was walking with Tsukushi Kirishima is Miru Ayatsuki.

She had read about it in some online article—Miru Ayatsuki tends to engage in risky live-streams, possibly to boost her view count. While there were various speculations about this on the internet, it could be a significant “piece of information.”

With that in mind, the good should be done quickly. To bring down Tsukushi Kirishima, she’d first have to socially destroy Miru Ayatsuki. That was Yayoi’s new resolve.
