Chapter 8: Sudden Collaboration: Let's Train with Kuroneko-san 

[Discord]

21:49: Natsunami Yui - Are you okay?

19:49: Kuroneko San - Please help me.

19:49: Natsunami Yui - No.

19:53: Kuroneko San - If you refuse, I have no one else to turn to.

19:54: Natsunami Yui - Hmm, what should I do... I was treated like a pervert on the stream.

19:54: Kuroneko San - I’m really sorry.

19:55: Natsunami Yui - Then from now on, call me Yui.

19:58: Kuroneko San - Eh?

19:59: Natsunami Yui - You always call me by my full name, Natsunami Yui. We're peers, so just call me Yui.

20:12: Kuroneko San - I, I can’t...

20:12: Natsunami Yui - But it's okay for Matsuri-senpai?

20:18: Kuroneko San - Ugh...

20:20: Kuroneko San - But I add 'senpai' to her name and I've been a fan for a long time...

20:21: Kuroneko San - It's like calling Kimura Takuya 'Kimutaku'...

20:21: Natsunami Yui - Then do your best alone.

21:01: Kuroneko San - Ah, ah, ah, Y- Yui...san.

21:01: Natsunami Yui - It's Yui.

21:22: Kuroneko San - G, ggg...

00:12: Kuroneko San - Yui.

00:12: Natsunami Yui - Okay, leave it to me.

-- -- -- -- -- -- --

In the end, the only one I could rely on was Natsunami Yui-san, the only person I had any interaction with.

I judged that borrowing someone's help rather than facing the off-collab day alone would be less severe in the long run.

It took me about an hour to write the first line, as I agonized over it, causing my stomach to churn and my heart to race.

Events like off-collabs are best left to extroverts, not introverts!

Natsunami Yui suggested I should gain some social experience before the off-collab and set up a peer collab for her.

Though a collab is nothing short of hell, immersing myself in hell beforehand for the sake of the off-collab might be a necessary step to mitigate the future damage.

Although I don't know who I'll be collaborating with, the extroverted Natsunami Yui gave me her seal of approval, saying, "Kuroneko-san, they're the perfect partner for you." If she says so, it must be okay.

I know that in times like these, extroverts are incredibly reliable.

That night, the broadcast was set to take place on Natsunami Yui's channel.

I had been nervous, thinking I'd be talking one-on-one with a stranger, so having her there as a mediator was a huge relief. Well, there's still a high possibility that in a group of three, I'll fade into the background without contributing to the conversation!

Akailukman: Huh, so they are really doing a sudden collaboration.

Hhcdbh: Kuroneko-san~ Ganbatte~!

MiyyaML: So, does anyone know who's the secret guest?

Tnick2: Yui's really putting in a lot of effort for this

Jackofskill: Yui-tan is actually leading the second-gen members~ I’m so proud of her~

"Hey-o!"

Comments:

Khorne: Hey-o!

Naamu: Hey-o!

"Yes! Today, we have a training session for Kuroneko-san, who came crying to me yesterday!"

Comments:

Kuronekofan1: Ahaha~ I knew Kuroneko-san would bail her eyes out again

AAAa: Kuroneko-San!?

Vanussgaming: Ah, I knew it.

Aha: They’re being sweet off-screen too!

Nanook: I can only imagine the rest...

"So, today's first guest is Kuroneko San-chan!"

"Go-good evening... nya..."

Even though it's my second collab, it's still nerve-wracking.

But I've learned from my previous experience. I started the call an hour before the broadcast to ease my nerves. Because of that, I managed to greet everyone immediately when called, unlike last time!

That's social skills improvement right there!

"You did great with the greeting! We had a call beforehand this time. How do you feel, less nervous than before?"

"Y-yeah."

Comments:

Akailukman: Great job!

Vanussgaming: Kuroneko-san is growing

Mascow: We need to shower her with praise to make her flourish

Khorne: Yui-mama?

The chat was filled with praise for me.

Seeing all those compliments made me smile uncontrollably, almost making me let out weird noises.

This is it, yes!

Praise me more!

"Alright, let's call in the other guest. The one who will be Kuroneko-San's training partner is this person! Known for his unique personality even among the second-gen members! It’s to the point where no one has dared to collaborate with them yet! The magnificent Blazing Sword God Gaou!"

!?

"Hey, kid, what’s with that introduction?"

Comments:

Akailukman: Gaou-sama!?

Hhhhrn: This is bad!

Murfak: Of all people, Kuroneko-san's training partner is Gaou!?

Oh no, oh no, what should I do?

I wasn't told who the collab partner would be until this moment.

I thought it would be Toba Otoha, as I had previously mentioned he would be a good collab partner. But it turned out to be Gaou Kamitachi!

"Come on, Kuroneko-san, say hello."

"A-a-au-au."

"Hmph. To think I'd be partnered with a little kitten when I was told someone wanted to collab with me."

"I-I'm sorry."

Comments:

Azia11FU2: Don't apologize.

Pharaoh111: Gaou-san manner of speaking scare another girl once again~

Niggamancer: Ugh, this is frustrating.

"Why am I getting criticized!? Kitty! Stop crying! Do you want to be burned by the crimson flames!?"

"I-it’s the c-collab killer..."

"Kitty, you sure have some guts"

Gaou Kamitachi.

He refers to himself as "I" (using the archaic form "ware") and acts arrogantly towards everyone.

He often talks about "crimson flames" and "jet-black lightning," and it's his trademark to block haters in his streams by saying he's burning them with crimson flames.

Isn't it too challenging to train my social skills with someone who lives in their own world?

"I-I’m Kuroneko San–My hobby is reading, and I don't have any special skills..."

"I am Gaou. Today, I’ll make an exception and be your partner."

"Good, good. First, the challenge for both of you is to introduce yourselves properly."

"Me too!?"

Comments:

Kuronekofan1: Of course.

Akailukman: Hahahaha~ It sure is getting fun.

"Well, today's goal is to get used to conversing, so we'll discuss detailed challenges later. Let's start with some casual talk, or rather, let's go through the marshmallows!"

Ugh, another all nighter again.

Not sleeping for two days in a row is going to be tough on my body.

"We're going to go through not just the marshmallows we collected before the stream, but also the ones being sent in real-time, so keep them coming! Let's start with the first one."

[Marshmallow]

Hey-o!

I'm looking forward to the second collab with Kuroneko-san.

Have your impressions of each other changed after your first collab?

Please let us know if they have.

Impressions, huh.

I didn't have the presence of mind to really observe the other person during the first stream, so I can’t say my impression has changed much.

However, she frequently sends me messages behind the scenes, and she took care of me until late last night.

So, my impression...

"Mom..."

Comments:

Zzundee: Mom!?

H20Delirio: Mommy!?

Venusgaming: We have our first Official JK Vtuber mom.

Evanwootube: Kuroneko-san has been adopted by Yui-mama. I take it? How sweet~

"What are you talking about!? Seriously, what are you talking about!?"

"Uh, ah..."

I blurted out what I was thinking again.

Even though Natsunami Yui had warned me yesterday to be careful about that.

"Because you're so kind..."

"That's because I'm worried about you, and—oh, come on!"

"Yui-mama..."

"Hey, can I leave now?"

Comments:

Harambe: Gaou, go home.

Veernias: Change the guest.

Erendidnothingwrong: Just disappear quietly, Gaou.

Bang: Aren’t you embarrassed being between these two girls, Gaou?

"Alright, next one, next!"

[Marshmallow]

Good evening-nyan.

Since this is a training session for Kuroneko-san, I'd like to ask: what’s the best thing about joining Arutema?

"Well, for me, it's definitely making lots of friends. I chat with San and also with Riisu-chan off-screen, and I consider all my viewers as friends too."

"For me, it's that my world has expanded. Of course, I've traveled far and wide across the ages, but virtual reality is a new experience for me, and every day is enjoyable... There's no enemy threatening world peace here."

Comments:

Akailukman: Ah, Gaou-sama is giving subtle hints of his backstory.

Khorne: Classic chuunibyou.

"For me..."

What is the best thing about joining Arutema?

I joined because I wanted to be in the spotlight, but every day I get teased by viewers, and just the thought of a collab makes my heart race.

Honestly, there haven't been many good things.

Well, if I had to say...

"Every day is fun."

In real life, I still don't talk much.

But here, I have viewers and Natsunami-san.

Yeah, it's a life I couldn't have imagined before.

Comments:

Akailukman: I'm crying.

Thanos: Yui-mama, just adopt her already.

Jonggun: Is this her final stream?

Cho-Ill: It’s only been a few minutes.

"Kitty, you've grown."

"Who even are you?"

Comments:

Akailukman: LOL.

Hazan: Don’t act like you know her well, Gaou.

Vanussgaming: #GaouGrowUp

"Alright, next one!"

Marshmallow:

Embrace the crimson flames!

Gaou-san, it’s not right for you to collab with girls, can you stop?

"Embrance..? What’s this?"

"It’s my stream's greeting."

Comments:

Akailukman: For reference, Gaou-san says "drown in the jet-black lightning" when ending the stream.

Does Arutema only have weirdos?

"Embrace the crimson flames, nya."

Comments:

Akailukman: She's totally making fun of him.

ErenBeggar: That’s her teasing laugh.

I know I shouldn't laugh, but still!

Just because I have cat ears doesn’t mean I should add "nya" to the end of everything, but turning the greeting into a joke!

To a first-time viewer, it wouldn't make any sense at all!

Marshmallow:

Gaou-kun, you seem really popular with women.

"I think this is directed at Gaou Kamitachi, not us..."

"What!?"

Comments:

Haram: A complex.

Khorne: Kuroneko can’t do collabs, so please stop.

Nanook: Even in collabs, Kuroneko is alone.

"Well, Gaou-kun, you’ll be embraced by the crimson flames later by the viewers. Next!"

Marshmallow:

Gaou-kun, who do you prefer: Yui-chan or Kuroneko-san?

"Ugh."

"That’s harassment."

"I haven't said anything yet!"

"So, honestly?"

"...Natsunami."

In this era, only the host’s Live2D avatar moves during streams.

But if this were Live2D, I feel like Gaou would be staring at Natsunami-san chest.

"Hey, I actually have huge boobs under my clothes!"

"Shut up, kitten!"

Comments:

ErenBeggar: LOL.

Aha: LOL.

Akailukman: Turns out Gaou-san is just a guy after all.

Vernias: Well, Yui-mama charm is irresistible.

Khorne: Yui-mama has an excellent child raising body after all.

I can't take this anymore!

When I get an update or new outfit, I need to get a chest upgrade to show off my boobs to the viewers and Gaou!!

"Alright, both of you calm down. Let's wrap it up with some final thoughts since we’re running out of time."

"Ugh, busty bitch..."

"Excuse me?"

Yikes.

Comments:

H30Delirious: Oh no.

Zzundee: He crossed the line.

ErenBeggar: A highlight moment right there.

Akailukman: Uh-oh, daddy is sleeping on the couch tonight.

"Well, despite everything, it wasn't bad. I think I'll be more proactive with collabs from now on."

"Even though you still have zero volunteers."

"Shut up!"

With that, Gaou-san left the call.

Despite having his own stream right after this, he stayed until the last moment.

Even though he probably only heard about the collab today, he still came. Despite his manner of speaking, he’s a kind person at heart.

"So, Kuroneko-san, how was it? You seemed more relaxed compared to last time."

"Well, yeah. It’s my second time, and we talked before and right before the stream."

"That’s good to hear."

Comments:

Zzundee: Yui-chan, adopt her already.

"Alright!! The stream is ending! Gaou-kun will stream right after this, and this weekend, there’s an off-collab with Kuroneko-san and Matsuri-senpai! Please subscribe, like the stream, and follow us on Twitter! Bye-bye!"

"Bye-nyan!"

Comments:

Amodai: Bye-bye.

Khorne: Bye-nyan.

Akailukman: Drown in the jet-black lightning!
