- Chapter 68: Sawakaze Kazuya's Perspective
“Armed Girls? What the heck is that?”
“This is a band group that has started activities centered around a man named Gouda Taketo, who is at the forefront of the most popular channel on netTube right now.”
“Gouda Taketo?”
“A few months ago, he was the only male netTuber, but after posting a video insulting Kazuya-sama, he was heavily criticized and disappeared.”
“Hey, are you telling me that guy over there is the fatso who came after me? You’ve got to be kidding me.”
“I was collaborating with female netTubers, but did you really not know? Well, it’s fine. He didn’t have his own channel, so I was a bit careless too…”
*****
“I’m so hungry…”
A slovenly, flabby body. I felt a bit peckish, as usual, I called for Mendou Mil, the person’s caretaker, and housekeeper. At that time, I thought of her as just a housekeeper.
I called Mil, but I was told to wait a while because she can’t leave her hands off it right now.
I don’t have a mother. When I told her to get out because she was being a nuisance, she disappeared before I knew it. Then, before I knew it, I was living with Mil, who wore thick glasses and was so unfriendly that she didn’t feel like a woman at all. I secretly called her the robot woman.
It’s been about five years since I got my own house.
Guuuu…
My stomach is demanding something to eat.
“How dare that Mil be so cheeky, that little brat!”
Even if I complain, I know she won’t move, so reluctantly, I stand up from my usual spot (the gaming chair) and slowly drag my heavy body, plodding along.
However, there are stairs to go to the dining area.
I hated these stairs. It’s because I had previously lost my footing and tumbled down them.
At that time, there were only about two steps left, so it didn’t turn into a big deal…
I was carefully and slowly making my way down each step, but as I suddenly thought about what to eat when I reached the dining room, I missed a step.
“Whoa.”
My belly was sticking out more than before, and I couldn’t see the stairs well, which was also bad. I hit the back of my head several times and finally stopped.
“Ugh, ugh… it hurts…”
“Kazuya-san! Are you okay?”
There, I lost consciousness, and when I regained it, I recovered the memories of my past life. There are many vague parts, but I was probably already a working adult.
After that, while trying to slim down my unbelievably overweight body, I thought about how to live in this world, but I couldn’t come up with anything.
But well, since I knew I would get the male allowance even if I didn’t do anything, I wasn’t that worried.
It took half a year, but fortunately, when I lost weight, I realized I was quite a handsome guy.
And also, this world is male-dominated because there are few men.
“Who is this fat guy… Gouda Taketo?”
And then I found out that there was only one male netTuber. It was just a coincidence. I was struggling with a game and thought, “If only someone could guide me,” so I looked it up. In the past, I would never have watched a female netTuber’s videos, but now I don’t care about that. In fact, female netTubers often have a lot of exposure. Maybe it’s because they don’t have many opportunities to see men, so they don’t even realize it.
“This fat guy is just playing games, and even during live streams, he barely engages in conversation, almost ignoring everyone. It’s like, why is he even doing live streams? I could do that too.”
In my previous life, I was never popular at all, but in this world, with this appearance… it didn’t take long for me to realize that.
*****
“Haha… Your channel subscribers are now less than a tenth of mine. Haha… Serve you right.”
At first, I was nervous while streaming videos, but I realized that the women in this world aren’t overly accustomed to men, so if I just throw out a few kind words, they get into it right away, making it easy.
Besides, my telekinesis.

Psychic insight is a mind control ability that makes no sense, but Charm Up increases my own charm, so if I use it while spreading smiles, everyone will definitely blush.
If I give them a little compliment and cheer them on, I’ll get lots of tips flying in, and the laughter just won’t stop.
Kazuya-sama, Kazuya-sama… you’re practically my follower now. It feels good.
So, I casually started streaming videos to entertain everyone… I wonder why streamers who don’t entertain anyone even bother with video streaming. When I mutter something like that, the women start commenting, “There’s no point in watching a fat guy’s stream, should we just unsubscribe?” and they go ahead and do it on their own.
And the moment the fat guy realized that was a masterpiece. He was like, “Don’t overstep your bounds, you upstart.” “Don’t invade my territory,” or something like that. What territory? One male netTuber, me (Kazuya), is more than enough. I didn’t say that, but it was funny to see my fans tearing him apart.
That fat guy lost my interest when his subscriber count dropped to single digits and he stopped posting videos.
To be honest, I’m not interested in men at all; I’m only interested in women.
So, yeah, I made a new song to quickly boost my subscriber count here. In a world where there are no male musicians, singing with my looks is bound to go viral.
Well, it’s the result of thinking about what to do to create a harem the fastest, but subscriber count equals money. Truly a win-win situation. I’m grateful to the person who came up with this system.
Since there are no male musicians, I can easily pull out new songs from my past life memories. Well, I don’t remember everything perfectly, so I pieced together the songs I do remember to create them.
I used the music editing software, and where I couldn’t, I had the unnecessarily talented Mil do it. She’s unsociable… no, she just looks like she finds it bothersome. Plus, she’s always nagging. I let it slide because she’s useful… and her physique isn’t bad either, so one day I’ll make her squeal.
I recorded vocals for a song that turned out pretty well and uploaded it as a new track. The response has been more amazing than I expected. I might be a genius. The number of subscribers is skyrocketing, and I can’t stop laughing.
Even a request for a comment asking me to appear on the year-end music show. I see, I had forgotten about that. Even if people don’t watch TV, it still gets turned on normally, and it helps to get my name out to a wide audience. There might even be women who don’t watch netTube. As expected, appearing on TV is essential.
After that, I started thinking about how I could possibly appear on TV.
Just asking to leave on my own would be uncool. So what to do? I’ll have the women who don’t even need to think about it take action. If I just respond to comments with something like, “I’d be happy if such an opportunity arose,” everything should go smoothly from there. There’s no need to rush.
And then… yeah, I want to go to school. If I go now, I’ll definitely be popular. It’s unthinkable not to go when I know I’ll be popular.
I immediately informed Mil about it and instructed her to contact the school, but she kept shaking her head. She said it was dangerous because there was no precedent.
I won’t listen to her story, but I want to hear Mil’s unfriendly story.
It seems that Gouda Taketo will be doing a live stream to apologize.
“Huh? Gouda Taketo? Who the hell is that? School is more important to me than some guy I don’t even know.”
I want to be pampered by everyone.
Judging that I couldn’t use Mil, I decided to gather information about the school first.
“…Kazuya-sama, I watched the distribution by Taketo-sama, and he apologized to you as well. He bowed deeply and sincerely…”
“Shut up, I don’t care about that guy at all. Go away, you thick glasses ugly!”
If you come closer now, they’ll find out I’m looking up school stuff.
“Haah, even if your appearance changes, if your heart remains the same as before, it will eventually come back to you.”
“I don’t care.”
As long as it doesn’t get found out, it’s fine. After all, making this woman squeal is not an option. It’s annoying, so I’ll kick her out at the right moment.
In the end, since Mil wasn’t responding, I directly sent an email to Tsukimi Academy, where I’m enrolled. Of course, I made it look like Mil sent it.
“Kazuya-sama, it would be troubling if you acted on your own.”
Of course, I was scolded by Mil, but I had anticipated that. I can just brush it off. I’ve already received a response from the school welcoming me, so there’s no way they would go back on that now.
Only five male guards came, and Mil quit being a housekeeper. There was no need to kick her out.
The new guardians are Rinko, Kyoko, Mikan, Ichiko, and Suika. I heard that although Mil was also a male guardian among these five, she applied for the five new guardians because she couldn’t protect me alone due to my growing popularity.
It seems that Mil herself acknowledged her own lack of ability and declined to be my guardian.
If you ask me whether I have any complaints about Mil disappearing without even saying goodbye, to be honest, I have no complaints. Rather, I feel relieved.
Because the new officer assigned to me is a very likable, beautiful, and glamorous woman. Moreover, she says she is a big fan of mine. It’s completely different from Mil, who had no charm whatsoever. Well, her body was good, but even with thick, heavy glasses and an unfriendly face, I didn’t feel anything.
“””””Kazuya-sama, thank you for your cooperation.”””””
The greeting hug was truly wonderful.
Well, taking this opportunity, I deepened my relationship with them, and a month later, they became my wives…
