The Capitalist Streaming of a Freeloading Hero

Episode 21

The Game of Constellations [Lyka]

When I logged in again the next day, the Constellations treated me like a madman.

└ ???

└ You freeloaded Jerathos’s flag?

└ For real?

Even though I hadn’t mentioned how much I sold it for, just the fact that I sold it was enough.

└ Freeloading… wasn’t a concept?

Excuse me.

It was never a concept for even a single moment, bros…

└ Wait, wasn’t the Room Owner a veteran player???

└ Selling Jerathos’s flag does smell like a real newbie move lol

└ Of course he’s a newbie lol How could a ■■■ player be a veteran???

└ Then how does a newbie know about Hidden Dungeons? lol

└ Why are you doing this, sir?? There must be a reason??

└ If you had just saved it for a bit, damn, it’s such a useful item in the Demon Realm!!

└ He’s still on the Island of Beginnings so the Demon Realm is too far away lol

└ Still thoughㅠㅠ That’s not something you can just buy with money….

Looking at the Constellations’ reactions, it seems these guys at least somewhat know what Jerathos’s flag is used for.

But they could never imagine.

The fact that my expression is sour not because I sold something I shouldn’t have, but because I sold it too cheaply.

Anyway, well…

What’s done is done.

└ But where did the numbered item go?

└ Aren’t you equipping Night Stalker?

Fortunately, I didn’t need to explain further about the numbered item.

└ You absolutely can’t equip that right now lol Why are you knowledgeable folks acting like this lol

└ Troublemaker out! I want to see the room owner for a long time ㅠㅠ

└ Room Owner, there seem to be bastards trying to screw you over?

└ Fortunately the Room Owner doesn’t seem that stupid lol

The Constellations had definitely played Lyka, since they knew how dangerous it was to equip numbered gear at low levels.

└ Joining a guild that can protect you might be a good method.

└ Yeah, if there’s a trustworthy guild, getting carried while… using numbered items would probably be best?

So I decided not to talk about my grand plan.

If I said I was going to liberate numbered equipment and freeload it, there would probably be many who’d really go berserk.

Why do I think that…?

└ Ah lol I want to see the Room Owner become a ranker quickly lol

└ How much time is left until ■■■ opens? Honestly, at this pace, he might really hit ranker within that time?

It seemed there were now quite a few who genuinely expected me to reach ranker status.

A ranker candidate freeloading numbered items?

Even equipment that’s been fully liberated…?

It’s a bit awkward for me to say this myself, but there’s nothing more insane than that.

-Alright, let’s go straight to grinding today too, bros!

So let’s end the chatter here, and at this point it’s right to focus on the main job.

└ Let’s gooo! Let’s do this!

└ You need to hit at least level 16 today, is that possible?

What’s the main job?

Farming, of course.

At least until I hit level 20, I don’t have time for fooling around.

└ I’m looking forward to what crazy shit this bastard will do today lol

So I couldn’t show them the kind of crazy antics(?) the Constellations were expecting…

And as I hunted frantically like that.

Ding-!

[You have gained experience.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have reached level 15.]

A day passed.

[You have leveled up.]

[You have reached level 17.]

└ ??? You hit 17 today?

└ Does this make sense???

And another day passed.

[You have gained a large amount of experience.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have reached level 19.]

└ The room owner was seriously planning to hit level 20 lol

Well, did you think otherwise?

* * *

During the two days that passed, the Constellations’ outcries got worse each day.

Were they bored because I was only leveling up?

Fortunately, that wasn’t it.

However… these guys seemed dissatisfied with my work attendance(?).

└ No, Room Owner. While I’m asking nicely, let’s work overtime today?

└ No way;; Where is there a player who leaves work at 8 o’clock??

No, punctual arrival and punctual departure.

What’s wrong with that?

└ The word ‘leaving work’ itself is funny as hell

└ And if work starts at 6, huh? You need to arrive by 6 and be completely ready to work for that to be a 6 o’clock start.

Excuse me?

└ So do more work ㅇㅇ leaving work now is unacceptable.

└ This is right.

└ Agreed.

Sigh…

As expected… all industrial accidents are definitely murder by capitalists.

It’s inevitable death and social murder.

So I must overcome this ordeal.

What do I mean?

I’m going to leave work.

-The mission tension is dropping, bros. We need some pacing control too.

And actually, it’s not like I can do it just because I want to.

It’s still premature to challenge Mrs. Kim Juyeon’s authority… should I say.

[‘Count Grape’ has sponsored 15LP.]

└ Pacing control my ass. Let’s just go no-life mode, Room Owner…

└ Count-nim lol look how he’s given up lol

└ Ah lol at this pace the mission will be cleared anyway lol

└ What; I didn’t watch today and you’re already level 19??

└ Yeah even filled 78% experience lol

└ Holy shit lol how many hours are left on the mission?

└ 18 hours lol even after sleeping there’s almost 10 hours left lol

Anyway, that’s how the 5th day of my return began.

Today, I punctually clocked in at 6 AM sharp and mechanically started preparing for hunting.

What was amazing was that even though all I did was hunt, the viewer count wasn’t decreasing but gradually continuing to grow.

[ON Air : ☺ 103]

Didn’t I have over 130 people 3 days ago?

That’s right, but you have to consider that these viewers gathered in less than 3 minutes after I started streaming.

In terms of peak viewers, yesterday I actually broke through 200 people.

Maybe today I might break through 250.

└ Starting tomorrow, you’ll at least stick to a proper work schedule, right Room Owner?

-No, I’m already punctually clocking in!

└ Hey, you should already be hunting at 6 AM to be punctual.

└ Right. If someone who clocks out at 8 has any conscience, they should at least keep their start time.

No, I’ve never been late!

Sigh.

Are there only black companies in the world where these Constellations live?

I don’t understand why they keep belittling the high-intensity work of 6 to 8 with virtually no separate meal time.

At this level, aren’t I a workaholic?

It’s unfair.

Of course, the Constellations had no interest in my sense of injustice.

└ Today’s the Ancient Moonlight Garden again, right?

Of course.

Until I hit level 20, there’s no hunting ground with better efficiency than here.

By the way, isn’t this place a party dungeon?

That’s right.

So I’ve been in a fixed 2-person party with Leo for 3 days now.

Leo perfectly matched my schedule.

‘I was really lucky I didn’t need to find other party members.’

Honestly, finding a party member better than Leo on the Island of Beginnings is nearly impossible.

Besides, I didn’t want to share information about the Hidden Dungeon with other players.

“Wow, you’re here punctually again today, hyung-nim.”

“Of course.”

This is the normal reaction.

“Thanks to hyung-nim, I feel like I’m becoming diligent too!”

Now our coordination is much better than the first day, so we’ve reduced our clear time by almost half.

Reduced clear time means our farming speed has gotten that much faster.

So I was quite grateful to Leo.

“Well then, you’re all ready, right?”

“Yes!”

This guy has even been helping me while wasting experience points since yesterday afternoon.

He already hit level 20 yesterday morning, so he can’t gain any more experience on the Island of Beginnings, but he’s still running dungeons with me.

Well, he’s probably doing this because party play with me is greatly beneficial for him too… but still, being grateful is being grateful, right?

[‘Ancient Moonlight Garden’ dungeon entered.]

Now that we’re so familiar with the strategy, we were chatting even after entering the dungeon.

“But Leo.”

“Yes, hyung-nim.”

“When are you planning to change classes?”

“I’ll do it when hyung-nim changes classes!”

“Me?”

“You’re going to hit level 20 today anyway, aren’t you hyung-nim?”

“That’s right.”

“So it’s fine if I can’t get experience for a day or so. Hehe. Thanks to hyung-nim, my leveling speed is already overpaced anyway.”

Speaking of which, class change.

Like Leo said, I definitely need to change classes today.

At the latest, I’m scheduled to hit level 20 within the morning.

Continue farming on the Island of Beginnings without changing classes?

I absolutely can’t tolerate that kind of experience loss.

“Right, I should start thinking about class change soon too.”

In that sense, I need to decide on my path soon…

Actually, I’m having some choice paralysis.

During beta, I always chose classes in the direction the fairy suggested, so this is my first time changing classes by my own will.

“Huh…? Weren’t you obviously going with a swordsman class, hyung-nim?”

“Why?”

“Well, because you’re completely talented in swordsmanship…”

Friend, I appreciate the flattery, but… my talents are actually all mediocre.

Calling the administrator fairy-certified ‘talentless Hero’ talented is a bit rude…

“Hmm.”

It was probably around the thousandth playthrough?

The fairy defined my talent in exactly one line.

It was such a cutting remark that I still remember it exactly.

-No, how can a person have nothing they can’t do and nothing they’re good at?

So my condition as a person is…

While it’s true I’ve used swords the longest, in terms of talent alone, bow or magic might be better.

Even if I chose summoning or spirits, I wouldn’t be particularly worse or outstanding in that state.

Oh, of course I have to exclude all the expensive professions.

Then the choices might be reduced more than expected…

“Ahem.”

While I was thinking about that, Leo suddenly made a dangerous statement.

“Anyway, hyung-nim.”

“Hm?”

“I’m going to keep following you until you won’t party with me anymore.”

“…!”

“So please don’t abandon me!”

What, that comment just now was kind of scary…

It’s quite burdensome when a handsome guy becomes obsessive.

└ Aaah!! Leo, no!!

Wait…

Constellation, what was that comment just now?

What do you mean no?

└ What’s so good about this dark guy!!

└ Your noona will take good care of youㅠㅠㅠ Hurry up and come to ■■■, our Leoㅠㅠㅠ

Sigh.

It seems there are quite a lot of guys with unwholesome thoughts among these Constellations.

Fortunately, there are some normal friends too.

└ Damn, our Room Owner isn’t that kind of person, okay?

I agree.

What if Leo had been a beautiful girl?

Then I could have played Lyka about twice as happily…

└ Do you think Leo would’ve partied with the room leader if that were the case? lol

└ For real lol

Ah, hitting me with facts is too unfair, isn’t it?

The Constellations are really being too much.

[Conditions have been met.]

[The master of the Ancient Moonlight Garden, ‘Shadow Lycan’ reveals itself.]

Well, anyway….

We were able to complete our first dungeon clear of the day at just past 10 o’clock.

[You have successfully defeated Jerathos’s minion, ‘Shadow Lycan’.]

And.

[You gain a massive amount of experience.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have reached level 20.]

Finally, I was able to successfully clear the second mission I received from the Constellations.

└ What kind of bastard is this… the bastard who first made that safe asset joke….

└ He actually succeeded? He actually succeeded?

└ He even had time left after getting a full 8 hours of sleep every day lol

Now, time to collect payment, right?

[You have successfully completed ‘Scoundrel 2nd Seat’s mission.]

[You receive 2000LP as a reward.]

[Your Fame increases by +2 as a reward.]

Kya, welcome 20 million won.

[You have received an additional mission payment of 250LP from ‘Three-Time Martial Arts Master’.]

[You have received an additional mission payment of 300LP from ‘Scoundrel 2nd Seat’.]

[You have received an additional mission payment of 150LP from ‘Seeking Cold Law Party’.]

…and so on…

After finishing all the collections, over 3,000LP in massive amounts was added to my inventory.

So the LP accumulated in my inventory right now is a whopping….

[Current Remaining LP: 255,246LP]

It was a massive amount exceeding 255,000LP.
