Gender Swap: The Introvert's Broadcast-Chapter 83: It’s Dangerous for Tama to Focus on One Game
Since the Minecraft server was set up, I used to play a lot in the beginning, but recently, I hadn’t been playing much at all.
The reason was simple.
There was just too much to do.
Even if I wasn’t playing Minecraft, I was still busy with playing LeoRe.
That’s why I hadn’t been getting into Minecraft lately.
“A big event?”
I asked because I’d never seen a particularly good event with the word ‘big’ attached to it in my life.
Oh, I heard they’re adding a new feature this time. Let’s play Minecraft together. It’s been a while since we last played together.
Hmm.
That actually seemed like a good idea.
Spending the whole day just playing LeoRe felt a bit too much, so taking a break with Minecraft didn’t sound bad.
Thinking that, I ended the LeoRe session.
“If we’re going to play LeoRe, let’s do it a bit later. For now, I’ll play Minecraft. Anyone who came for LeoRe, just wait a little.”
[🗡️All-Knowing Cthulhu: LeoRe can wait.]
[🗡️All-Knowing Cthulhu: You can do it later.]
[You can wait, right? LeoRe can wait.]
[Fact is, the person who said they’re not doing LeoRe right now is the owner of this broadcast...]
[What happens when you say that to the owner, lol.]
[Oh, haha, who cares about official stuff.]
[This is absurd.]
[Minecraft is fun.]
[Kang Hoo-min: Let’s bond a bit, we barely talked last time.]
The viewers probably imagined me chatting and playing Minecraft with other streamers, but that was far from the truth.
I was going to play alone.
If I talked, it would be with people I already knew.
I wouldn’t avoid anyone who approached, but I wasn’t going to initiate anything either.
With that thought in mind, I logged into Minecraft.
Vroom-
When the loading finished, I saw a familiar scene.
It didn’t look like the “big event” was related to the map.
I had thought it would be more fun if the map changed, but it seemed like it was something else.
I glanced around for a bit and then asked.
“So, what’s different?”
This was the most important question.
If nothing had changed, there was no real reason for me to keep playing Minecraft.
When I asked, I got the following answer—
Now... when you receive donations, it gets applied to the game. Based on the donation amount, you get items like meat, or even experience points.
That was an answer beyond my expectations.
It was so surprising that I was almost caught off guard.
The idea that donations would actually give you in-game items was so interesting.
I responded with curiosity.
“How does that work, then?”
It seemed better to first set up the donation system and then hear the details.
Time passed, and I was able to connect the donation system to Minecraft.
Now, when a donation came in while I was connected to the game, depending on the amount, either good or bad things would happen to me.
There was something particularly strange about it.
[Donate 500,000 KRW and instantly die.]
If I received a donation of 500,000 KRW, I would die right on the spot.
That was incredibly bizarre.
I couldn’t help but think, How does someone even create a system like this?
“Wow, how do they even make this system?”
Of course, I was from the tech side, but I didn’t have deep knowledge about gaming systems, so it was quite fascinating.
I wondered what the underlying principle was.
With that thought, I carefully said—
“Can someone donate 500,000 KRW so I can test this out?”
I wasn’t trying to make money, I was just curious how it worked.
The idea that I would die instantly after a 500,000 KRW donation was very intriguing.
So, I made the request, but—
[EggIsGood donated 1,000 KRW!]
No one’s going to donate 500,000 KRW so easily, huh.
[For real.]
[🗡️All-Knowing Cthulhu: Who the heck would donate 500,000 KRW here? Haha.]
[No one’s that much of a sucker.]
[Mangming: 500,000 KRW comes up now and then.]
[Mangming: I think I’ve seen two people do it so far.]
[???]
[Is that real??]
[There are two people who don’t mind wasting that much money. What is this world coming to?]
I didn’t really expect anyone to do it.
Who would donate 500,000 KRW to my broadcast?
With that thought, I kept talking when—
[OctopusSukhoe donated 5,000 KRW!]
If you keep streaming for a week, I’ll give you more!
One viewer made a very tempting offer.
But I wasn’t all that interested.
The promise of donating more if I streamed for a week was unreliable.
“If you think I’m going to stream like that for a week, you’re just asking for trouble.”
I wasn’t the type to bet my life on uncertainty.
If the reward wasn’t guaranteed, I wasn’t a fool to waste my time on it.
“If you keep trolling like this, I’ll just ban you right away. Don’t try to get attention like that.”
I said it firmly.
If I let that kind of trolling get attention, it would become a hassle to deal with later.
With that said, I was about to start Minecraft when—
[OctopusSukhoe donated 100,000 KRW!]
I’ve made the first payment. Please stream for a week with fun content.
A donation of 100,000 KRW came in out of nowhere.
I was surprised to see 100,000 KRW, but even more shocked that the person I thought wouldn’t donate at all actually did.
I was taken aback and said—
“What’s the effect of 100,000 KRW?”
This was the part that really caught my attention.
Since 500,000 KRW had the instant death effect, I was curious to see what cool effect 100,000 KRW might have.
I turned my head from the chat window on the right and looked at the Minecraft screen on the left, hoping to see something interesting.
Then—
Grroooaaar-
Zombies started swarming from all directions.
It seemed like this was part of the event.
“Ugh, what is this? Compared to instant death, this is boring.”
I had thought there would be a grander event, but it didn’t seem like it.
With that thought, I decided not to worry about it—until—
Boom!
[You have died.]
My character died.
All the items I had gathered in Minecraft scattered across the ground.
At first, I didn’t fully comprehend the situation.
“...I died?”
But after a moment—
“Wait, my items...”
I could finally assess the situation objectively.
All of my items were gone.
The only thing left was some non-perishable currency I had exchanged earlier.
[🗡️All-Knowing Cthulhu: Wow, you’re screwed.]
[🗡️All-Knowing Cthulhu: What do you do now?]
[HaHa, seriously?]
[Are zombies really that strong?]
[How can you die to a zombie with one hit?]
[Dam-a probably thought he could survive a few hits, but he got killed instantly.]
While I was in disbelief, Harin revealed something I didn’t know.
What? You died to a 100,000 KRW zombie? Normally, zombies spawn, but there’s a 20% chance that a 100,000 KRW zombie appears and kills players before disappearing.
“Why are you telling me this now?”
Technically, it was my fault for not knowing, but still, could she not have warned me about it?
I felt a bit disappointed.
I told you it was a big event, didn’t I? You should have paid attention.
“...I guess so. Ugh, this is frustrating.”
I sulked a little before heading back to where I had died.
Maybe some of my items were still there.
But there was nothing left.
All that remained were the zombies burning in the fire.
By the time I revived and rushed back, other streamers must have taken all my items.
“...This is really frustrating. Why did they take all my stuff?”
I had started playing Minecraft just for fun, but now, the situation made me feel a bit annoyed.
It wasn’t fair for me to be the only one who suffered.
[🗡️All-Knowing Cthulhu: Well, at least you made 100,000 KRW. Drink up.]
Visit frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓ for the b𝘦st novel reading experience.
[Made 100,000 KRW, so it’s not bad.]
[But seriously, lol. You just died instantly.]
[Kang Hoo-min: I’m checking the replays of all the streamers who are broadcasting on Twich right now. Once I catch the culprit, I’ll make a list and report it.]
You have been temporarily kicked!
[Shut up and think that to yourself.]
[Hwan-hee: If someone sees this, they’ll think Dam-a’s the villain, lol.]
And so, the Minecraft session, which had started as a fun break, took a turn I hadn’t expected.
A week passed.
Thud thud-
“This is it.”
I had started digging a trap.
If someone wearing normal armor fell into it, they would die instantly.
[🗡️All-Knowing Cthulhu: Wow, Dam-a really turned dark, lol.]
[How did Dam-a end up like this...]
[Kang Hoo-min: Hmmm, very appropriate stance.]
[This is right, lol.]
While I was digging the tunnel,
I told you, you shouldn’t go there like that.
A somewhat familiar streamer started walking toward the trap.
