Chapter 54
[Upvote if this guy becomes the second voice actorㅋㅋㅋ]
(Wayo's younger brother using Bochan after being badgered into it)
Him using Bochan is fucking hilariousㅋㅋ
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-What's Bochanㅋㅋ
-Who is that??
ㄴ Wayo's second voice actor
ㄴ Seriously?? Was the first voice actor a man too?
ㄴ What do you think?ㅋㅋ
[But why is he using Bochan?ㅋㅋㅋ]
Why does an app like that even exist?
-Yeongukno sent it to him and told him to use it
ㄴ What a fucking psychoㅋㅋ
ㄴ The fact he actually uses it when told to is legendary
ㄴ Noona's friend, so yeah..
[But seriously, can someone really change this much?]
(Avatar Before/After)
Why does he look so innocent?
Suddenly, I can see the philosophy behind Wayo's avatar.
-Seriously
-That was an innocent-looking avatar??
-The first voice actor's version really didn't suit it at all
ㄴ Seriously
ㄴ That avatar was actually worth the money??
[The second voice actor losing it among the noonasㅋㅋ]
(Wayo's younger brother losing it while being peppered with questions)
Oh, the second voice actorㅋㅋ
Look at that expression.
-This is what a VTuber isㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-The second voice actor's going to stay forever, right?ㅇㅇ
[But seriously, he must be computer-illiterate]
The fact that he hasn't even played games and doesn't know how to turn off a stream is so unbelievably pure.
-Makes you think of that possessed Rell girlㅋㅋㅋ
-A computer-illiterate extrovert VTuber really does have a market, huh?
[Just make the second voice actor permanentㅋㅋ]
The stream gets so peaceful when he's not constantly having a battle of wills with the Rell girlㅋㅋ
-Seriouslyㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-That Rell demon bastard..
ㄴ Raek is gourmet, though?
ㄴ Fuck offㅋㅋ
[But where is Wayo, and what is he doing?]
What, is someone else doing the stream?
-Sleeping his ass off in the back
ㄴ ??
ㄴ Seriously
ㄴ ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[Second voice actor: I have a girlfriend right now]
?? If all that mystique suddenly disappears, upvoteㅋㅋㅋ
-#WayoAgain
-Bring back the first voice actor..
-Fuck it, I'm just not watching the stream
[Hey, but how badly must Wayo have bullied this kid]
that he won't reveal a single piece of information.
-Seriously, he clamps his mouth shut whenever Wayo asks him something;;
ㄴ He could let one thing slipㅋㅋ
ㄴ Wayo's way of keeping him in line is top-tier bb
[Is it really true that Wayo and his younger brother aren't far apart in age?]
People don't usually get bullied that badly.
-They must have an age gapㅋㅋㅋ
-The claim that they don't is a lie. I knowㅇㅇ
-Seeing how she disciplines him, they're practically aunt and nephew.
ㄴ Seriously
ㄴ If his noona is much older, she'd basically be his aunt.
[Second voice actor: Noona made me do all my exercise]
Doesn't this have the vibe of at least a ten-year age gap?
Apparently she made him exercise since he was young.
-Seriously
-Does Wayo actually have some age on him?
-This is incontrovertible, folksㅇㅇ
[Wayo confirmed to be in his thirtiesㅋㅋ]
No wonder he was so good at streaming—he was in his primeㅋㅋㅋ
-Prime age is valid
-The age when streaming skills peakㅇㅇ
[Wayo's really aged like shit…]
Let's just have the young, bouncy second voice actor do it.
-Young, sure, but is he really bouncy?
ㄴ Then what, he isn't?
ㄴ Those arm muscles were scaryㅋㅋ
ㄴ ?? Have they ever been shown?
ㄴ (Wayo's Dubai Chewy Cookie stream link)
[Wait, the second voice actor was the guy who made Dubai chewy cookies?]
Fuck, I thought “younger sibling” meant a younger sister.
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Bochan's performance is insanely good, seriously
[But if Wayo is in his thirties, everything does make sense]
No wonder I couldn't understand how he could treat his day job however he pleased.
If he's a seasoned veteran freelancer, then it checks outㅇㅇ
-Upvote if everything suddenly makes senseㅋㅋ
-So he was a well-off auntie in his thirtiesㅋㅋㅋ
[The wronged bastard in real time..]
(Gangseok's wronged expression)
??: Fuck, we are friends, aren't we?
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Seriously
-The most wronged bastardㅋㅋ
[Wayo, has he never once mentioned his age?]
But why did I think he was in his twenties?
-At least Haeganom and Yeongukno call him noona
ㄴ Then how old are those two?
ㄴ Mid-to-late twenties
ㄴ ??
-Doesn't his voice sound kind of young?
ㄴ You can tell that?ㅋㅋ
-Anyway, let's just say he's in his thirtiesㅇㅇ
ㄴ Seriously, just call him prime-ageㅋㅋ
[We all know you read Wayo's community]
If that pisses you off, you know what to do, right?ㅋㅋㅋ
-Seriously, turn on the half-cam and prove itㅋㅋ
-Wayo looks at the community?
ㄴ Seeing him use memes, definitely
ㄴ Yeah, he's the type to browse the gallery after ending stream too
-ㅗ
ㄴ ?

I woke up feeling incredibly refreshed.
A darkened room; I was lying on the bed, and the evening glow showed through the window.
“Ugh….”
When did I fall asleep?
I stretched deeply, and joints all over my body popped.
“Ngh.”
Why is my back so stiff?
Yesterday—or was it today?
So, while we were doing the collab…
“Ah, shit….”
I ended up sleeping soundly.
Ha~ Maybe it's because I'm getting older, but my stamina isn't what it used to be.
More importantly, how long did I sleep?
I told them to wake me up in ten minutes.
“Tsk.”
And I think I fell asleep on a yoga mat, so why am I in bed?
Did Aseong move me?
I'll have to hear this from the person involved.
After quickly washing my face, I looked for Aseong first.
“Hey, Kim Aseong~”
Aseong was watching TV with Mom in the living room.
That punk was just sitting there watching TV like nothing had happened.
“You're up, noona?”
“Why didn't you wake me?”
Aseong furrowed his brow at my words.
“Do you know how much trouble I went through because you wouldn't wake up?”
“Oh, did I?”
Actually, I had expected as much.
There was no way Aseong hadn't tried to wake me and then simply given up.
I must not have woken up.
“No, you did get up.”
“Oh, you did?”
“You wouldn't wake up, so when I called Mom, you got up.”
Ah, well, of course I'd get up then.
But why was I in my room?
“You told me to turn off the stream so you could sleep.”
“Huh?”
“So I turned off the stream and moved you to your room.”
Oh, so that was the behind-the-scenes story.
“So you did manage to turn it off?”
More importantly, the Aseong I knew only knew how to click things on a computer.
How did he turn off the stream?
“The noonas told me how.”
“Oh… really?”
The noonas…
I wanted to ask what had happened, but one look at Aseong's face told me he was thoroughly miffed.
A guy, sulking like this.
Well, no matter.
If it happened on the stream, there were plenty of ways to find out, weren't there?
“Good job, little bro.”
“I'm seriously not doing it next time.”
“Okay, okay.”
He looked a little tired too, and didn't seem to have caused any major trouble.
Feeling at ease, I returned to the streaming room.
Then I immediately went into the community,
the gallery that had talked about me a lot for the past year.
At a glance, there were indeed many posts from yesterday.
There was everything from claims that Aseong was the second voice actor to all sorts of other things.
“He's pretty popular…?”
Honestly, the reaction was different from what I'd expected, so I was a little dumbfounded.
What was Bochan? Had he done that too?
I thought he'd turn off the stream after ten minutes at most.
Looks like the stream continued for quite a while after I lay down.
I briefly played a clip of Aseong using Bochan.
[No, um… how am I supposed to make this sound? No, more importantly… hmm….]
He looked incredibly awkward with the stream itself.
Maybe it was because Wayo's avatar was pretty? At a glance, it even gave off an innocent vibe.
“What the hell.”
…Bochan's performance is pretty good these days?
Where did he even get a Bochan that good?
Looking at the community, it seemed Yeongukno had given it to him.
He wouldn't be using it himself, so did he cobble it together somewhere?
With that question in mind, I checked the flow of the stream after I went to sleep.
It looked like they hadn't gone back to the tanker.
Well, it wasn't a place to take a beginner.
Since I was the team's strongest fighter and commander, the stream obviously couldn't have progressed.
Maybe that's why most of the remaining stream consisted of turning off the game and chatting.
To be honest, around this point, I started to feel sorry for Aseong.
Haeganom and Yeongukno.
Surrounded by them and the viewers, he was getting interrogated with question after question.
I could see why he'd looked tired as soon as he saw me.
…I should be nicer to Aseong for a while.
Maybe I should just buy the coffee myself too?
Even while I let Aseong enjoy some freedom for a little while,
I kept checking the community.
[Hey, but how badly must Wayo have bullied this kid….]
He seemed to have kept the embargo well, too.
He hadn't said anything particularly weird either.
Maybe our little bro has a talent for streaming?
Above all, it was ridiculous that public opinion had skyrocketed just because he used Bochan.
Do these bastards just like a woman's voice?
They obviously know he's a man.
Anyway, they're so obsessed with appearances.
Shouldn't they look at a person's inner self too?
Well, anyway.
Just as I was about to conclude that there was no problem except that viewers would obviously overdo the “second voice actor” bit when I went live,
I didn't notice anything strange until I reached the newest posts.
[So Wayo is in his prime?]
[No wonder his banter was so folksyㅇㅇ]
[He definitely didn't have twenties vibes.]
What the fuck.
Why am I in my thirties?
No, these bastards—how did they spin the topic this way?
A quick look showed that it had apparently started with something said on the stream.
[We all know you read Wayo's community]
If that pisses you off, you know what to do, right?ㅋㅋㅋ
“Good grief.”
I left a comment and immediately started preparing to go live.
Still, I'd abruptly abandoned the stream and gone to sleep, so I should turn it on and apologize first.
Too bad I couldn't clear the tanker… tch, that was a shame.
While preparing the stream, I also drafted rough messages to Haeganom and Yeongukno.
In a way, I'd completely bailed in the middle of the collab, so along with saying I'd passed out, I sent a prostrating emoji.
“Tsk.”
More importantly, I had no idea how people would react.
I'd seen the reaction in the community, but the stream reaction would be different.
Would they start by looking for Aseong again?
Viewers are the type that, once they latch onto something, keep hanging onto it for quite a while.
Right, since he'd even used Bochan.
That would probably be the main topic.
Something like “prime age” was obvious and not funny, right?
Surely it wouldn't be a topic that followed me into this stream too….
-Welcome, Prime-Age Wayo
-Welcome, Auntieㅋㅋ
Oh, for fuck's sake.
“Haa….”
I sighed once, then said,
“All right, say hello.”
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Still got itㅋㅋㅋ
Whatever.
Let's call it payment for abandoning the stream and sleeping so soundly.
