The Case In Which Streaming In Another World Led To The Creation Of A Massive Yandere Following - 135: Something's Not Right...!

Chapter 135: Something’s Not Right…!

“Ah, hey Haishin!”

“Hmm? What’s up, ○○?”

The young man was feeling a mysterious world.

It was a world where he had become close friends with Haishin, someone he had always admired, as if they had been together since childhood… truly, it was like a dream come true.

(Hmm… How is this possible? Well, never mind. If this is a dream, I want to enjoy it… after all, I’m spending time with Haishin-sama.)

Being with Haishin was enjoyable in itself for him. Despite Haishin standing in front of him in his usual mask and cloak appearance, he was so happy that such things didn’t bother him.

“Is everything okay with your work? I’d hate for something to happen to you, and if you’re tired, make sure to take a break, okay?”

As Haishin said this, standing beside him, the young man scratched his cheek shyly. 

Despite Haishin being an admired figure, someone who should be in a different place from himself, his down-to-earth personality and way of speaking… everything felt so comfortable to him.

While hoping that these moments would continue, he still believed that Haishin, who delivers his voice to the people of the world, is the best.

So was Haishin’s childhood friend audio experience.

“I-is this for me?”

“Yeah. I thought it would suit you.”

The woman was at the peak of happiness. 

The owner of the voice she could only hear through her terminal, Haishin, was talking beside her. Just being the closest to him for now… that was enough.

(I’m the closest to him right now… Ah, how wonderful!)

Even though his expression was hidden behind a mask, she could tell he was looking at her kindly. 

The woman was so immersed in this moment that it didn’t matter to her what Haishin’s true identity might have been. 

Yet, the question of what all this was never ceased. But that didn’t matter… the satisfaction was enough.

“Hey Haishin, is streaming really that important to you?”

“Of course. It’s what I want to do most.”

“…”

“What’s wrong? Are you saying you want me to pay more attention to you than to streaming?”

“I…”

Oh, how foolish she lamented.

She loved the streams and had always watched them… and that wouldn’t change, yet she found herself wanting to be Haishin’s only one.

How happy would that make her, how fun would it be…

“I really appreciate it, ○○. If that’s the case, just stay close and watch over me—your support is all I need.”

“Ah… yes♪”

Normally, the woman was someone who fully embraced her flamboyant appearance, but now she was as demure as a quiet girl… If this was a dream, she wished never to wake up.

(If only he could talk to me like this forever, his voice making my ears melt. How wonderful it would be.)

So was Haishin’s dating ASMR.

“…Huh?”

“…Oh?”

Kanata exhaled a sigh of relief under his mask.

The moment the voice and ASMR played, it was clear something amusingly odd had happened between them.

It wasn’t that they were causing a commotion, but rather, they were too quiet… Without any reactions, they simply became silent as if they had been immersed in the events of another world.

“Well, I think that’s the end… Shall I remove the earphones?”

The earphones were removed from their ears, and they both stared at Haishin as if in a daze. 

Everything had been adjusted so it should have been fine, but Kanata wondered if perhaps it had failed, seeing their excited, yet unsubsided expressions as they began to speak.

“Haishin-sama… it was an incredible time! It felt like I really became childhood friends with you—no, I was in that world!”

“Haishin-sama… it was wonderful! Even though I knew it wasn’t the real world, it felt like I had become close to you… It was like experiencing a sweet dream!”

“Oh… okay…”

That much, huh?

Kanata was filled with doubt, but what was certain was that they were both satisfied with the Audio experiences and ASMR.

Hearing that they could feel like childhood friends with Haishin, or in a close relationship with him, fans and listeners couldn’t keep silent, eagerly throwing gazes filled with anticipation as if to say they couldn’t wait for it to be sold.

“Well… uh, since there are still some people who won through the lottery to experience it, let them try it first, and after that, we’ll start selling it, so please wait.”

As a great cheer erupted, Kanata felt almost blown back by the force of it but managed to hold his ground, then passed the earphones to the next person led onto the stage.

The new pair appeared excited, yet Kanata couldn’t shake off the feeling that something was off… Nevertheless, he continued, and once again, they too underwent a transformation.

“…??”

Wondering if there was some kind of strange malfunction, he listened for himself but found nothing amiss… it was actually quite normal. 

Listening to it himself felt somewhat embarrassing, but perhaps wanting to reassure Kanata, Rosalynde offered to give it a try.

“You sure?”

“Of course.”

As it turned out, Rosalynde’s reaction was notably unchanged.

If anything, her face seemed a bit red, but with no obvious reactions, Kanata was relieved. 

Indeed, this was the valiant Rosalynde.

Thus, Kanata’s Audio experiences and ASMR were spread to those who came to the event.
