When I, a streamer with some more than 10 registered subscribers, announced my retirement with a face-reveal; as all my viewers were the Madonnas of the school, I ended up losing my current place at school all in all. - 01_The end of the Streamer

01_The end of the broadcaster
I have been a streamer for about a year now.
I have been delivering game streams, chat streams, and even singing streams.
Although I didn’t show my face, I think a nobody like me, having made it this far maybe a feat for myself.
The number of subscribers to my channel is 14.
Well, to be honest, I can’t say I have a lot of subscribers.
Compared to the big names, I’m no better than a little dust.
I started as a streamer to find fulfillment after failing in my high school debut, but as it is now, it doesn’t look like it’s going to grow, so maybe it’s time for me to retire.
I’m sorry for those who have subscribed, but I have nothing to gain by continuing to do this job for as long as I am there.
I’m sure the people who are looking at me are dark and awkward as well, the same race of people who are as unsocial as me.
Okay, since this is the last time I’m going to face reveal, and then close the stream altogether.
I start preparing for the broadcast, setting up the thumbnail (an illustration I made myself), writing down the topic in the summary column, and gave out the notification for the streaming slot.
Then, let’s begin.
In the chat box, the number 12 was displayed.
Yes, for some reason, my viewers start watching much earlier than I actually go online in the stream.
It’s not like I’m notifying them beforehand about the event from somewhere, but they are really quick to start watching.
I am grateful for that, but given that I have a small subscriber count and with that how most of the subscribers are already ready within just 3 seconds after I start the streamer, it becomes a little frightening.
Before I know it, the number was already 14, and that’s all of them.
When I tell them to look at the summary section, and the chat section goes wild.
『 Retirement Stream?! Why!!! 』
『 But you’re my favorite streamer. 』
『 Without you, I would have nothing to live for. …… 』
and so the 14 members of the chats sent chat one after another, in which the conversation started to take shape.
“I was thinking I’d like to focus on my day job. So I thought it was time for me to retire. Please forgive me for being so selfish. After this, I’m going to show my face, and then go on and close the slot. In terms of time, I would say the face stream will be for about 5 seconds at max.”
『 Eh? The last stream will be only five minutes…” 』
『 That’s just too fast. 』
『 I guess it can’t be helped, since he has a real life to work upon. ……’ 』
While some people are reacting sadly, others are understanding my situation very well.
“Well then, since I am going to prepare to show my face right away. Please wait a moment.”
I switched the delivery screen from the current while blank one to a live-action one.
The camera face was right now facing towards the same table where I always place my hands at.
『 I’m kind of sad to see the end so early, but I’m really looking forward to seeing the face of my favorite streamer. 』
『 It’s the face-reveal of my favorite streamer, so I have to take a good look at it and enjoy. 』
『 As you just said, at least we must enjoy these last moments to the fullest. 』
I wonder if this is really a conversation between dark-unsocial, unrooted boys, well, I don’t really care about that though.
So, showing my face, huh. I wonder if I could encounter any abuse after that.
There’s no weird someone mixed in with the reflection in the back, right? Okay, the curtains are properly closed.
The only background is only the blank wall. I am all set.
Ready to go any moment.
“Okay, since I am all set and prepared, I will be proceeding, okay.”
『 Doki-Doki 』
『 I hope he is someone cool. 』
『 I have to burn it into my eyes. 』
I moved the camera lens so that my face was in the picture.
and with this, is my face. ……
『 Eh, you’re kidding me right. …… 』
『 Wai—wait a minute there. …… 』
『 You’re kidding me. …… 』
And I closed the frame right then and there.
