As he took a sip of a sweet and slightly bitter cafe mocha, Hyeonu thought that he was going out more frequently lately .
‘It means I have more time to relax . ’
Hyeonu thought positively . He had never dreamed about it previously when he was still paying off the debt . However, he hadn’t come here today to play . It was a meeting about streaming .
“Alley Leader?” A young woman appeared and called out Hyeonu’s streamer ID that few people in the real world knew about .
“Sunny?” Hyeonu called out the other person’s streamer ID in a slightly awkward manner .
The woman’s identity was Sunny, an idol and representative reporter of World . Surprisingly, Sunny was Korean . She was an impressive beauty with black hair and double eyelids . The reason why the two people met was simple . In the fifth main scenario, Hyeonu had promised to appear on Sunny’s stream in exchange for being provided with information . Today’s meeting was to discuss it in detail .
“My streaming schedule is busy, so I only got in touch recently . I’m sorry,” Hyeonu apologized at the beginning of the conversation . In fact, he should’ve already appeared on Sunny’s streaming show as planned . However, the show was delayed due to the overlap with Alley Leader Academy and various things .
“No . I’m grateful to you . This isn’t a joint stream but a guest appearance . . . How can I be dissatisfied?” Sunny replied with an expression that would be obvious to anyone as a disgruntled one . Facing such a look, Hyeonu could only smile bitterly . There was no way out because it was his own fault .
“What about this Monday? Is it okay?” Hyeonu made a suggestion because he wanted to pay off his debts .
“Today is Saturday . . . It is a good time to advertise it . Yes, Monday is good,” Sunny agreed happily .
She streamed live five times a week . It meant the content that was already in progress wouldn’t be disrupted by a day’s delay .
“So what are you going to do on the stream?” Sunny asked while sipping her ice Americano .
“Do I have to think about that too? Sunny, I will do whatever you want to do . ”
‘Why is this man so passive? He should take the lead . ’ Sunny frowned at Hyeonu’s passive attitude . “Is there anything you’re confident in or want to do?”
Hyeonu pondered on Sunny’s question and barely managed to answer . “Then shall I teach you how to hunt in a special tutoring format? Sunny is famous for . . . ”
Sunny’s expression crumpled at Hyeonu’s straightforwardness . Seeing this, Hyeonu didn’t know how she streamed with such an honest face .
“I . . . ! My skills are a bit poor compared to my level and equipment . Well, I’m not that bad, right?” Sunny wondered . However, her momentum subsided like she had been stabbed .
“Then the content has been decided . Shall we eat together today?”

Sunny replied to Hyeonu’s meal proposal with a smile, “Yes, if you want . ”
A post was posted to Arena’s community . It was natural that it became the most viewed article in the community . Why? That was because it was a post about Alley Leader . It didn’t matter if it was true or false . The important thing was that it was plausible .
The post quickly spread to all Arena communities .
[Everyone, Alley Leader is unifying with someone else!]
[Alley Leader and Sunny’s joint stream . To be precise, it is Alley Leader appearing on Sunny’s streaming .
It is currently being talked about on Sunny’s stream . It isn’t a rumor . It is official . ]
-Broken Yuljae: Yes, I don’t believe it .
-Muscle Lion: If you’re this good at writing a plan, don’t trick people here .
-Gangnam People: ??? Really? Alley Leader will appear as a guest on another show?
-New Dog: This is real . I’m watching Sunny’s stream as well . It is coming on Monday . There are two days left .
People didn’t believe it . If anyone was asked about the identity of the highest-priced streamer on World, they would say Alley Leader . Why would he appear as a guest on another person’s stream? However, the truth of this controversy was soon revealed . Sunny’s stream didn’t have just one or two viewers . So, after the truth was revealed, people looked forward to Alley Leader’s new challenge .
Then Alley Leader’s reputation increased even further . He gained the image of a streamer who didn’t stop at the top and constantly challenged himself to find new things to do .

It took more preparation than Hyeonu expected to appear on another person’s stream . After all, it wasn’t his own stream, so he had to check things in advance and be careful about his behavior .
“Alley Leader, you have millions of viewers, so you won’t be nervous, right?” Sunny had been treating Hyeonu with ease since the last meeting .
Based on her twinkling eyes, she was planning how to make him appear on her stream again rather than liking him as a man .
“Not at all? I’m not the one shaking with tension . ” Hyeonu was a bit nervous, but on the surface, he acted like his vocation was a streamer . It was a natural bluff that no one would notice .
“Really? Then let’s get started straight away . The expected streaming time is six hours as promised . ”
Hyeonu nodded at Sunny’s words . Six hours—it was longer than the usual streaming time, but it wouldn’t be too difficult for the two of them .
“It’s longer than I thought it would be . . . But it will work out somehow . ”
Hearing Hyeonu’s optimistic words, Sunny laughed . Soon, the long-awaited stream began .
“Hello, everyone . This is your cutie, Sunny! Today I will be streaming with a special guest . Do you know who it is?” Sunny skillfully opened the stream with a cliched line . However, the audience’s reaction was apathetic . No, they ignored Sunny’s words because their attention was already focused elsewhere .
-Come out, Alley Leader!
-I took a break from streaming because I heard you were appearing here today!
-I’m here to catch a fugitive streamer . This is Sunny’s stream, right?
-Bloodshed won’t happen if you bring out Alley Leader and Tang-E .
‘Now, it is time for me to cut in . ’
At this moment, Hyeonu appeared on the streaming screen . Hyeonu had seen the chat window and thought it was time for him to show up . Sunny might get sworn at if he took more time . It was better to prevent such a situation in advance .
“Hello, I’m Alley Leader who came to play on another person’s stream today . It is nice to meet everyone . ”
Once Hyeonu appeared, viewers with familiar names started to give gold coins .
-Leader Groupie has gifted you 99 gold coins .
-Tang-E is the Best has gifted you 100 gold coins .

-Tang-E is Cute has gifted you 100 gold coins .
Hyeonu’s streaming fanbase and big donors appeared . Sunny was at a loss about what to do with the outbreak of gold coins that was different from usual . “Uh, thank you . Thank you for the 99 coins, 100 coins, and 100 coins . Thank you very much . ”
Hyeonu wasn’t the one receiving them, but he thanked the audience who presented the gold coins . “Thank you, Leader Groupie, Tang-E is the best, and Tang-E is cute for the steady gifts of gold coins . ”
The viewers who sent the gold coins found the obvious differences in attitude between the two people cute .
-There was a time when our Alley Leader was like that .
-He was really happy at just receiving gold coins . . .
-I don’t know about now . . .
-Should I give some gold coins here next time?
At the viewers’ words, Hyeonu quickly changed his attitude . Hyeonu was no different in front of the gold coins . Everyone was equal in front of gold coins .
“Oh, my! Thank you Leader Groupie for the 99 gold coins . Where else would I get this? It is all your virtue . ”
The viewers laughed and liked Hyeonu’s exaggerated words and deeds . This was the charm of Alley Leader . Alley Leader pretended to be proud and charming, but he did everything as long as the audience wanted it .
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ As expected, he was born like this .
-Isn’t this an automatic reflex?
-He grumbles but does everything he is told . ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-I can’t give good coins elsewhere because he is pitiful . ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
“Everyone, this isn’t my stream . Please take care . Say what you want to say, and I will receive the gold coins on Friday . . . ” Hyeonu dissuaded the viewers from pouring out gold coins . After all, this wasn’t his stream . Even if his viewers gave gold coins, Hyeonu wouldn’t receive any of the profit .
-Leader Groupie has gifted you 99 gold coins .
-Tang-E is the Best has gifted you 77 gold coins .
-Tang-E is Cute has gifted you 88 gold coins .
“That . . . Groan . ” Hyeonu was trying to dissuade the viewers again when Sunny pinched Hyeonu’s side and pulled him .
He couldn’t see the viewers’ chat window from this angle . Hyeonu was forced to stop speaking due to the sudden pain .
“Thank you, everyone . I’ll ask you to watch my stream on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays when Alley Leader doesn’t stream . ” Sunny smiled and promoted it to the audience . “Today, the content I am doing with Alley Leader is another Alley Leader Academy . It isn’t the arena, but he will take the time to teach me basic hunting tips and skills . ”
-I can already hear Alley Leader’s struggling voice .
-Our poorly skilled Sunny . . . No, she isn’t at the standard of a person . She is worse . . .
-It isn’t PvP but hunting?
-Isn’t Sunny a necromancer? How will he teach her?
-Don’t hit your head . You are already a stone head . What will you do if more brain cells disappear?
Hyeonu saw the chat window and laughed . It was the first time that a stream was overflowing with viewers teasing their favorite streamers .
‘How bad can Sunny be? Everyone is worried but me . ’
Now he had a question . How serious was the problem that there wasn’t even a single line of praise for Sunny?
“By the way, you’re finding it hard to hunt even though you’re a necromancer . . . ? Why don’t you just summon the undead, use some curses, and support them from behind?”
Hyeonu thought hard about it and couldn’t come up with a way that a necromancer couldn’t hunt . So far in every virtual reality game he had played, a necromancer required a lot of money and was hard to raise . However, it was superior for hunting alone .
-No matter what you imagine, you will see something beyond your imagination .
-In my view, running away after an hour or two is good for mental health . This is what I’m saying .
-Seriously, I’m choked up with frustration . I’m speaking the facts without any exaggeration .
“Is that so?”
Hyeonu thought the viewers’ words were just exaggerations . It should be so . However, it didn’t take long for him to realize that the viewers’ words were truthful .
