The World’s Strongest Bottom-Tier Dungeon Streamer, Who Buzzed Big after Streaming Post-ts Reincarnation Due to Immense Strength and Cuteness - Vol 1 Chapter 8

It all started with a breakfast where I hunted a Minotaur and made a steak out of its meat during my stream.

“I’m not exactly lacking common sense, you know? I do believe I possess powers beyond the ordinary. It’s not an exaggeration to say that I could be the strongest in the world.”

I confidently spoke in front of the comments pouring into the comment section.

Being praised for defeating lesser demons felt wonderful.

How happy this made me!

In my previous life, comments were sad like “CG fake,” or “Yeah yeah, I’m so strong, is this good for you?” But now… hehe, perhaps it’s the power of appearing as a girl.

I was ecstatic, endlessly reveling in the moment.

『Comments』

• • But you seem like you don’t have any friends.

However, this single comment…

“…Guh.”

Knocked me out in an instant.

“Oooh… no friends, no friends at all…”

I collapsed right there, crying out loud.

『Comments』

• • Ahh…

• • So, you really are the type with no friends.

• • If you have no friends, shall I become your friend?

• • It’s okay! I’ve been a NEET and internet dweller for thirty years with zero real-life friends!

• • Ahh, who was it that made this kid cry?

• • Wait, wasn’t there someone who wasn’t okay being alone?

Whoever said I’ve never made friends in my life, a sad and gloomy loner.

It’s fine. I was genuinely moved the first time I ate a cheese beef bowl, even though I had not eaten anything the days before.

“Ugh…”

It’s really okay.

Even if I don’t have friends, I have overwhelming power enough to live on my own.

Friends… friends… friends…

Ugh…

“…I really want friends.”

No matter how much I pretend, I desire friends.

I want to play and have fun with others. I want to play games together, laugh together, and travel together. I want to play card games, not alone, but with everyone.

Playing cards alone, building multiple decks for simulation—it feels empty.

I hate being alone all the time.

While I’m happy to receive responses from viewers who comment… I still find myself wanting more.

I really want to experience something youthful, just once.

『Comments』

• • Yeah, I want friends too, even though I’m a shut-in NEET.

• • Hey, cheer up!

• • Wow…

• • This isn’t just for laughs, this is serious depression. This isn’t just character talk; it’s the real deal.

• • I’ll be your friend! We could even go to a dreamland together!

• • How about Laina-chan?

Amidst these, a specific name pops up.

“Laina-chan…? That party-loving extrovert is supposed to be friends with someone introverted like me…?”

By looks, she was the epitome of a social butterfly.

She didn’t seem like someone who would be friends with me.

『Comments』

• • Exactly! You have Laina-chan!

• • Come to think of it, Laina-chan is perfect. After all, she was the start with Nanashi-chan, the perfect partner.

• • You have the best girl right there.

• • Am I not good enough…?

• • Laina-chan was also saying in her stream that it’d be nice to make friends. She wants to say thanks too.

• • There you go, Nanashi-chan’s first collaboration partner is decided.

But the atmosphere in the comments section seemed promising.

Can I do this…?

Am I actually going to do this?

Hehehe…

“Yes, that sounds nice… She’s a lifesaver, after all, and I met her eyes yesterday. Next time, we could talk…”

I am a lifesaver.

The initial impression must be high, so maybe she’ll become my friend, right? Yeah.

And if worst comes to worst, I could try to reconnect during another moment when she might need saving again…
