The Case In Which Streaming In Another World Led To The Creation Of A Massive Yandere Following - 116: I Am A Streamer!

Chapter 116: I Am A Streamer!

“So, Rosa-dono, is it really safe for Kanata-kun?”

“Of course. This isn’t some grand event to welcome Haishin; it’s a discreet affair. Even my subordinates won’t know that we’re fetching Kanata. It’s quite safe, actually.”

The Royal Academy that Kanata attended would go on break tomorrow, so Maria was having this final check-in with Rosalynde through the terminal. Kanata, overhearing this from the side, seemed uneasy, as if he still wasn’t used to being treated like a state guest.

“Seriously, I can’t get used to this. I mean, I am Haishin.”

“Indeed. You could even say you’re one of the most valuable beings in this world right now. So, making various arrangements for your sake is important.”

“True. If anything were to happen to Kanata, I’m prepared to take my own life.”

Kanata sighed at the grim sentiment, but he could sense that Rosalynde was absolutely prepared to carry it out.

“We’ve considered interference from other countries to some extent, but there won’t be any issues. If they dare to intervene, I will annihilate them.”

“You’re really dependable. The title of ‘War Deity’ is not for show, it seems.”

(… I can’t just escape from such ominous discussions, it seems.)

Kanata thought, having already resigned himself to the situation. 

With a final word of counting on her for tomorrow, they ended the call.

“Phew.”

“Tired?”

“Yes… Even though it was just through the terminal, I can still feel something like the War Deity’s aura being transmitted.”

Maria appeared really tired.

Wondering what he could do for her, Kanata suggested, albeit simply, “Should I give your shoulders a massage?”

Maria, who initially hesitated, finally said, “If you would, please,” and sat down on a chair.

“Then, excuse me.”

Kanata said as he lightly touched Maria’s shoulders and began to slowly massage them. 

He varied the pressure, sometimes soft and sometimes a bit stronger, all the while gauging Maria’s reactions.

“Ah… this feels really good. I’m obviously tired, but I think my shoulders might also be tense from various things.”

“Various things?”

“You know, like having big breasts?”

“…?”

“Fufu, you’re so cute when you’re flustered, Kanata-kun ♪.”

Kanata wanted to complain about her abrupt topic change, especially considering she was a princess, but he chose to remain silent, fearing she might make fun of him even more.

“Would you like to massage them?”

“Please stop.”

To be honest, for a moment, Kanata nearly asked her if she was serious. 

Though such remarks from Maria were hardly befitting of a princess, he understood that she said with him in mind. 

What Kanata couldn’t notice, since he couldn’t see her face from his position, was that Maria’s cheeks were also flushed, and she was genuinely shy.

“In any case, the event in the Empire will proceed as planned, so I’m counting on you all!” 

: Whoaaaaaaa!!

: Finally!!

: Looking forward to it!

: Long live Haishin-sama!

: So we can meet you in person!

: Please take care, Haishin-sama!!

Kanata informed his listeners about the upcoming Haishin event just around the corner. Not only the citizens of the Empire who would likely come to the event in person but also fans from other countries seemed to be eagerly awaiting the day.

(If I remember Rosa’s words correctly, dignitaries from other countries will be there too… So scary.)

Still, as Haishin, Kanata felt no need to engage with them. In fact, he was encouraged to focus on his own activities rather than worry about such matters.

“I never thought the day would come when an entire nation would host an event for me.”

It was a heartfelt sentiment.

Kanata had started streaming because it seemed fun, and that simple desire had led to events of this magnitude—all thanks to his continuous streaming.

“… It’s quite moving, you see?”

: You’re really sentimental today!

: But it’s kinda nice, isn’t it?

: It’s like our usual casual chat, but… it’s really good!

: This side of Haishin-sama is wonderful too ♪.

Receiving affirmation for being himself could sometimes be toxic, but as long as there was no malice involved, Kanata was content.

(Streaming… Streaming in another world, huh.)

Upon reflection, this was truly a remarkable feat—no, an outright triumph. 

Back in the day, most stories about other worlds that Kanata had read involved reincarnated individuals with cheat-like abilities—embodiments of male fantasies who overcame challenges with overwhelming strength and formed harems by saving beautiful women. Kanata had loved those stories and had even dreamed of them.

(And here I am… I mean, sure, I’m using cheats, but I’m neither a renowned adventurer nor a hero vanquishing a demon king—I’m a streamer! Really, life is so unpredictable.)

While it was true that he had met a multitude of beautiful women, Kanata had no plans to stop streaming.

As a pioneer who had introduced the culture of streaming activities to this other world, he would continue living as Haishin—the streamer. And that was the kind of reincarnated individual Kanata was.
