Hobbyist VTuber Chapter 222

Official) Nael’s Red Pill.jpg

ㄴ Seriously, she’s pretty.

ㄴ I swear, she looks like soone you’d want to scoop up in both arms and cuddle.

ㄴ Hey...

Nael’s Red Pill is adorable—should we all press ‘♥’?

From now on, any attack on Nael is an attack on .

As the Illusionary Realm community heated up over the sudden discovery of Nael’s “Red Pill,” discussions about Nael’s behavior toward Ha-eun also started to erge.

It all stemd from an edited video of Star Athletics Competition, now being dubbed “Nael’s Red Pill Footage.”

Ha-eun-ssi is the best!!! >>> everyone else ‘miscellaneous’

Okay, but why would Lee Ha-eun even be a VTuber?

ㄴ That’s still a mystery.

ㄴ Honestly, she doesn’t have any reason to be one.

Wait, so Diah’s dog = Ha-eun’s dog was real???

ㄴ Ha-eun’s Instagram is full of dog photos, but what about Diah’s?

ㄴ Idk, on Twitter she only ever ntions how cute her dog is—never posts pictures.

From that point on, the community beca obsessed with hunting for more “proof” that Ha-eun and Diah were one and the sa.

If it turned out that Lee Ha-eun was actually VTuber Diah, there wouldn’t be a bigger scandal in the industry.

The only thing preventing them from reaching a definite conclusion was the lack of solid evidence.

Diah’s “Red Pill” mont—where her real voice slipped—had only lasted three seconds.

And there wasn’t a single drama or movie where Ha-eun’s voice had ever been recorded in a similarly husky tone.

On top of that...

“But if Diah really is Ha-eun... doesn’t that an the unicorns are screwed?”

So unexpected posts began appearing in the community, diverting attention away from the search for Diah’s true identity.

ㄴ You bastard.

ㄴ Delete this post.

ㄴ No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

ㄴ (Unicorn horn-breaking emoji)

The thread quickly devolved into chaos.

So were spamming Ha-eun’s romance scenes, while others were still determined to uncover the truth about Diah.

To Noeulis (Diah’s fans), she was essentially their virtual girlfriend.

If Diah turned out to be actress Lee Ha-eun, the emotional damage would be catastrophic.

Of course, there were those who brushed it off, saying acting is just acting.

But there were also those who genuinely feared the fallout from Diah’s “Red Pill” mont.

And so, as the Illusionary Realm community spiraled into its most chaotic state yet...

For the first ti, a post surfaced that seriously argued against the theory that Diah was Ha-eun—

And it actually had solid reasoning.

If you know, you know—this was Daramji’s ho base.

This translation is the intellectual property of Novelight.

Back in the day, when Daramji was the kid president of YouTube, every one of his live streams had its own restream running in parallel.

But those golden days ended five years ago.

Now? The place is a graveyard.

(Screenshot of Daramji’s old manager list)

(Screenshot highlighting user “D.A.”)

See this?

This was the D.A. Daramji always referred to as his “foundation” back in the day.

(Screenshot of D.A.’s New World TV profile, showing an account creation date of 12 years ago)

Twelve.

Years.

Ago.

For the clueless ones, I ca prepared:

(Old YouTube link of Daramji’s stream, tistamp 2:31~)

“Alright, we’ve finalized our new Illusionary Realm mbers! There are five of them, as announced earlier!”

“Oh, and fun fact—turns out the youngest mber used to be a regular viewer of mine on New World TV back in the day! I was shocked when I found out.”

In other words:

Daramji’s old New World TV manager = Illusionary Realm’s youngest mber = Diah = D.A.

Do you really still think Diah is Lee Ha-eun?

A seven-year-old Ha-eun was supposedly watching New World TV in its one-viewer days?

(Kicking frog )

Cut the bullshit.

One-line summary:

(Screenshot of a deleted Goryeo Rice Cooker post)

Idiot.

For now, nothing about Diah’s Red Pill was truly confird.

The theory that she was actress Lee Ha-eun was gaining traction—

But neither side had definitive proof.

Not yet.

***

"Ah, Woo Ah-reum scores 7 points!"

"Now, as long as Lee Ha-eun scores at least 4 points, Luna Entertainnt’s team will win. Alright, she draws back and—!"

While the Illusionary Realm community was in an uproar over Nael’s “Red Pill,”

the Star Athletics Competition resud airing after a brief comrcial break,

broadcasting Ha-eun’s archery finals.

At that mont, Ha-eun and Da-yeon were both seated on the living room sofa,

focused solely on watching TV.

They had yet to hear the news about Nael’s Red Pill being revealed.

"Okay, I get that you’re fast, but where did you learn archery?"

"Crash course before the match. Maybe... ten minutes of training?"

After briefly discussing Ha-eun’s archery skills—

—Whoosh!

—Thunk!

"Oh, 9 points! Luna Entertainnt wins!"

"Winning both the sprint and the archery! Lee Ha-eun is undoubtedly the champion of the won’s division!"

Ha-eun’s final arrow secured Luna Entertainnt’s victory.

And imdiately after, Da-yeon’s suspicious tone followed.

"...You’re gonna say you just followed the instructions again, aren’t you?"

"Because it’s true."

"You insufferable little genius."

Getting up from the sofa, Da-yeon then ntioned wanting to check out Ha-eun’s soundproof booth.

After all, she had already seen Star Athletics Competition live from the stands.

What really intrigued her now was the soundproof booth that hadn’t been there the last ti she visited Ha-eun’s ho.

More specifically, she was curious about the setup Diah used for her streams—

since Diah was Da-yeon’s favorite VTuber.

"I might need to buy one too. I wanna see how it’s set up."

"If that’s the case, then sure...."

Ha-eun led Da-yeon to her room, opened the soundproof booth’s door for her, then returned to the living room to continue watching Star Athletics Competition.

In other words—Da-yeon was now alone inside the booth.

"............."

That was why she hesitated for a mont while staring at Ha-eun’s computer.

And after cautiously peeking outside the booth to check Ha-eun’s whereabouts—

'...Just a quick look. Just for a second.'

Settling into the stream chair inside the booth,

Da-yeon finally turned on the computer.

She then grabbed the keyboard and mouse—

"Jik... bak... gu... ri...."

—And began searching for sothing she absolutely couldn’t let Ha-eun catch her doing.

Of course, Da-yeon knew it wasn’t exactly polite to snoop through Ha-eun’s computer.

But curiosity got the better of her.

What if Ha-eun was hiding sothing?

Sothing "not-so-appropriate" for minors like them?

Fortunately—or unfortunately—Da-yeon found no such content.

Disappointed yet relieved at the sa ti, she decided to open the internet and browse Diah’s streaming channel instead.

But then—

[ thatkxkd09 ]

"Huh?"

For so reason, the account that was logged in wasn’t Diah’s.

Even more surprising—

It was an ID Da-yeon had seen sowhere before.

'...No way.'

She instinctively moved the cursor to check the watch history and donation records of thatkxkd09.

And within seconds—

"...You’ve got to be kidding ."

She was greeted by a long list of records showing that thatkxkd09 had watched Hida’s streams.

Not just that—there were multiple instances of malicious donation ssages.

Among the infamous trolls that had persistently harassed Hida,

one of them had turned out to be none other than Ha-eun herself.

It was only after this realization that Da-yeon noticed—

Ha-eun had been standing right behind her.

"...What are you looking at?"

"?!?!?"

The sudden sound of Ha-eun’s voice sent Da-yeon’s heart plumting.

However,

if they were to compare situations,

At this very mont, Ha-eun was basically a criminal caught in the act.

"Hey, CottonCandy09. Seems like this witch has a lot of questions for you...."

Forcing a smile, Da-yeon offered Ha-eun one last chance to explain herself.

A bead of sweat ford on Ha-eun’s forehead.

But in her mind, Da-yeon wasn’t exactly in a position to judge, either.

"Uh, um... Da-yeon7-ssi? I don’t think you have the right to call out here...?"

Bringing up Da-yeon’s own account—the one she had been deliberately ignoring—Ha-eun went on the defensive.

Thus began a mudslinging battle.

"Oh, please. At least I had the guts to just na myself Da-yeon7. You, on the other hand, went with ‘CottonCandy’!"

"A... account nas don’t an anything!"

"It’s about intent, you sneaky little—!"

"Oh yeah? Then what about you always bringing up VR horror gas? If anyone here’s got questionable intentions, it’s definitely you!"

The argunt quickly devolved into a petty back-and-forth over who was more suspicious.

But in the end—

Both had to admit neither of them had the moral high ground.

And so—

With a final handshake,

they officially agreed to never pull anything like this again.

"Hey, Ha-eun. Let’s not be cowards hiding in the shadows."

"...Yeah."

Once the treaty between thatkxkd09 and ekdus7 had been signed, sealed, and delivered,

Da-yeon finally asked what she had co here for in the first place—

How exactly did one go about purchasing a soundproof booth?

"Having everything set up like this is really convenient. Feels cozy, too."

After examining Ha-eun’s booth for a while, Da-yeon made up her mind to buy one for herself.

However, there was one thing she couldn’t quite figure out.

"What’s this table for?"

She pointed at a small table tucked into the corner of the booth.

And the answer that ca back—

"That’s for when Diah’s cam is on. I use it for reviewing rch, introducing products... and snacking."

Ha-eun added that she’d be using it during her songpyeon-making stream tomorrow.

Rembering this, Da-yeon tuned into Diah’s stream about twelve hours later—

"Heh, looks delicious, right~? You want so~?"

Damn, that looks good.Oh god, here we go again.Please stop torturing us. 😭😭😭As expected, she was greeted by Diah’s usual playful voice.

And a bunch of beautifully made songpyeon teasingly close to the stream cam.

"Noeulis, say ‘Aah~’!"

—Whoosh!

—Nom nom nom.

"Heh, I’m gonna eat them all by myself~! Mmm, so good~."

Diah, you little—!Is it normal to feel the urge to slap soone right now? 😭😭Of course.SCREAMS IN FRUSTRATION.Da-yeon shook her head instinctively.

Diah was clearly ssing with the Noeulis on purpose, knowing full well they’d react.

And yet, they still fell for it every ti.

"Boyfriend? Yeah, right. They’re just her personal punching bag."
