[General] Summary of the AiAi Minecraft Situation
Sora wanted to make a beacon and asked Laura for help.
Laura went to the inland region to hunt the Three-Headed Ghost.
The Three-Headed Ghost’s aggro got drawn to Anna, who was secretly stalking Laura.
The Three-Headed Ghost killed Anna, and then aggro bounced to other creatures and continued moving.
Sora, wanting to get a Void Rod, took Chell and headed to the city.
The Three-Headed Ghost spotted Sora and killed her.
Chell sacrificed Sora and fled to the city, but eventually died, and the city was devastated.
[Comnts]
What’s up with number 3, lol
ㄴ Sora was secretly watching the stream and decided she wanted to stalk Laura.
ㄴ That’s insane, what a creep.
ㄴ Is Anna really a creep?
ㄴ Haven’t you figured it out yet from when she confessed to Rui?
What’s with Chell, lol
ㄴ She’s secretly nuts too.
It’s funny that Sora ended up in a horror ga by accident.
ㄴ She would’ve had to play anyway, since Laura sent her a gift.
Terrorist Laura, lol
===
[General] Why is Anna late?
When is she going to do the horror ga?
[Comnts]
For real, at this rate she’ll be a grandma before she plays it.
Shiroki Anna, do the horror ga before you turn into a grandma!
If she doesn’t do it, I’ll go to Seoul Station to buy poop.
ㄴ Buy it...?
I’m already protesting from ho.
Sora and Chell haven’t done it either, which is annoying.
ㄴ But Chell wouldn’t be that fun to watch anyway.
ㄴ She’s already done a few horror gas.
ㄴ Those Tsukuyomi gas weren’t scary anyway.
ㄴ Wouldn’t she get scared by sothing like In Last?
Anna should set an example as a senior.
ㄴ Absolutely lolololol

"Please save ."
9 AM.
Anna was kneeling in front of my room.
“…What are you doing this early in the morning?”
“Please save , Laura-sama…”
She was bowing so deeply that her forehead was touching the floor.
“…You can even step on my head if you want, just please… do sothing about the horror ga…”
“But can you really change things now?”
I looked down at Anna and spoke.
The culprits behind the 'EYEAI Minecraft Destruction Incident.'
Commonly known as the 'Terrorists,' they were supposed to play a horror ga as punishnt.
It’s a long-standing tradition for VTubers to play horror gas as a penalty. In fact, it’s common even among non-VTuber strears.
“Even if I were to change my mind, no one else would agree to it.”
The seniors want a horror ga, and the viewers want it too.
Even if I suggested a different punishnt now, it wouldn’t fly. It would only cause more backlash.
“You can use as a chair if you want…!”
“…It’s more comfortable to sit on a real chair than on a person. The height doesn’t quite match up, you see.”
“How do you even know that…?”
Well, I’ve done it a few tis. As the villainess I used to be, I had to put on so performances that involved forcing people to submit.
I once sat on a holy knight. Honestly, it felt pretty great.
‘Though, after that day, the Tower Lord would growl every ti they saw .’
The Holy Knight and the Tower Lord were kind of involved, so the Tower Lord openly disliked .
That’s all in the past now. I wonder what happened to the Holy Knight and the Tower Lord after that? They probably got married, I’d guess.
“I’ll do anything, just please spare …!!”
Anna clung to my legs… She’s becoming more and more annoying.
But her desperation was palpable. She’d co all the way to my house this early in the morning, after all.
“Well, since you’re here, you might as well help with the housework. I can’t cancel the horror ga, but I’ll propose a slightly less terrifying one.”
Rion was about to retire from VTubing. At this point, she was more of a manager than a VTuber and was working almost every day.
On top of that, she seed to be preparing sothing else, which ant her work hours had been getting longer.
As a result, the housework had started to pile up a bit.
Now that monetization was approved, the 6th gen was planning a commorative stream soon. Payouts would begin next month, and I’d been considering hiring a housekeeper.
“Thank you…! I’ll never forget this favor!”
It wasn’t that big of a favor, really.
We had told the viewers that the 'Terrorists' would be playing a horror ga, but we hadn’t yet announced which ga.
Honestly, Anna wouldn’t be able to handle In Last. She’s a scaredy-cat, after all.
In Last is eerie right from the start, and Anna would probably give up within minutes.
‘The viewers wouldn’t be too happy about that.’
When it cos to gas with a storyline, viewers watch streams anticipating how the strear will react to certain scenes.
But Anna wouldn’t even reach those iconic scenes in In Last, so it’d be one of those “this is boring to watch” monts.
And if you make scaredy-cats play a ga that’s too scary, the pacing slows to a crawl, so I’ll have to pick sothing moderately scary.
‘I’ve unintentionally boxed myself into a highball strategy. But a ga that’s not scary enough would be anticlimactic.’
For example, a free horror ga like The Witch’s House or Ib that Chell played before.
Those gas do have so creepy elents, but it’s more like “even spicy ssamjang counts as spicy food.”
Just because a ga has horror elents doesn’t an everyone will consider it a horror ga.
In that sense, side-scrollers like Outside or Small Nightmare have horror elents, but viewers wouldn’t necessarily see them as horror gas.
The Midnight series seems like the limit, but the physicality required is unexpectedly high, so Anna wouldn’t be able to handle it.
I need to pick a ga that will leave people saying, “She did a good job.”
I thought for a mont.
There’s sothing I realized.
Anna is absolutely terrible at housework.
“…Maybe you should just play In Last after all.”
“N-No…! Please give another chance!”
She couldn’t clean, and she was bad at washing dishes.
I gained a new appreciation for how good Rion had been. Now that I think about it, Rion once ntioned that Anna was a total slob at ho.
I vaguely rembered hearing that Anna didn’t do any housework in her own apartnt. Turns out that was true.
‘…So what exactly are Anna’s strengths?’
When I used to teach her in Labyrinthos, I rember thinking she was hardworking and had good traits, but now she’s making shake my head.
She’s a kind person, but… she can’t do housework, and sotis she’s just plain irritating…
“Just out of curiosity, what do you think about dating or marriage?”
“I don’t think about it at all! Honestly, Laura, I want you to take care of ! …Can I live here forever?”
“Don’t look at like that. I’m not taking you in.”
If she were good at housework, maybe I’d consider it. But I’m not interested in feeding and caring for soone else. If I had that kind of hobby, I would’ve gotten a dog or a cat already.
If I had ti for a pet, I’d rather play more gas.
I turned on my PC.
【EYEAI Discord Server】
General Chat
Tanaka Michael (2nd Gen):
[Who’s up for Minecraft today~]
[No 6th gens allowed.]
[@everyone]
Ayanokouji Sora (6th Gen):
[Why are we excluded?]
Tanaka Michael (2nd Gen):
[We’re rebuilding the city, lol]
[You 6th gens can play in your base, lol.]
Ayanokouji Sora (6th Gen):
[I’ll help with the rebuilding!]
Tanaka Michael (2nd Gen):
[Nah, it’s fine, lololol]
[It’s our base, so we’ll handle it, lololol.]
Yamaoka Gabriel (2nd Gen):
[Exactly!]
[Scrubs should just stay out of it!]
[How dare you try to take over a senior’s work! Tsk!!!!]
Ayanokouji Sora (6th Gen):
[What does “scrub” an?]
Yamaoka Gabriel (2nd Gen):
[What?]
“Hmmm.”
The Discord window automatically popped up when I turned on my PC. As I was reading the chat, I started craving tea. But Rion wasn’t here to make it for .
I tried asking Anna to make so as a test, but it ca out tasting weak. She added too much water, this brat.
“The 2nd gens are playing Minecraft today too?”
Maybe because she knew she failed with the tea, Anna brewed so coffee and served it to instead.
The coffee was drinkable, at least. I heard that even though Anna was bad at housework, she could at least make coffee at ho.
“Looks that way.”
“The 2nd gens always play Minecraft, you know. Especially Michael-senpai, he’s a Minecraft specialist VTuber.”
“Is that so?”
Anna explained that Tanaka Michael was the kind of person who travels all over the Minecraft world building structures.
He had created the parks multiple tis.
He built an underwater city in the sea.
He even made a floating island in the sky.
“That’s impressive.”
“On the other hand, he’s pretty much the only one who consistently plays Minecraft. The rest of us VTubers… well, we’ve lost interest in Minecraft lately.”
That was inevitable. My seniors seed to have exhausted most of the Minecraft content.
Other than the final boss, the Dragon, there aren’t many high-difficulty challenges in Minecraft.
And even the Dragon doesn’t require much preparation to defeat. Honestly, if you’re confident, you can do it with just iron gear, a sword, armor, and a bow. Diamond gear isn’t necessary.
There’s even a speedrun to beat the Dragon in a day, so the endga content in Minecraft is fairly easy to tackle.
“When there’s a new update, we might jump back in for a bit. But even then, most of it gets finished within a week.”
“Yeah, they mostly add new creatures or building materials. Occasionally, they throw in a new type of dungeon.”
But there hasn’t been any new endga content. The Dragon remains the final boss.
So, aside from Tanaka Michael, most VTubers had stopped logging into the Minecraft server. But since the recent incident, they’ve been logging back in to help with 'reconstruction work.'
“Co to think of it, the 6th gen collab ban has been lifted, right?”
“Not completely, but yeah.”
We were allowed to interact with the seniors on the Minecraft server, with the condition that our voices couldn’t be included in the stream.
“Wouldn’t you say that’s all thanks to ?”
Anna, looking proud, placed her hands on her hips.
“I breathed new life into the dying EYEAI Minecraft server, and thanks to my stalking of Laura, the 6th gen, who were stuck on a remote island, can now receive help from the seniors! All thanks to !”
“So, what’s your point?”
“…Please, appreciate my achievents. Do sothing about the horror ga, for real.”
It seed that Anna wasn’t going to leave until I eased the horror ga punishnt. …Was she always this annoying?
Ding, ding
A sound ca from the speakers.
Looking at the screen, the original woman who used to annoy was contacting .
“Inagika?”
Anna wrapped her arms around my neck, resting her chin on my shoulder as she spoke.
“Inagika is cute, isn’t she?”
“Have you been watching Inagika’s streams?”
“I watch them a lot. She doesn’t seem to have many friends like , so I personally feel for her. And don’t you think her twitchiness is kind of cute, like a little rabbit?”
“Well, depending on your perspective, I guess.”
“Oh! But! I like you way more than Inagika! I’ve watched all your streams! I even watched your 20-hour archive, every bit of it!! So, please… ease the horror ga punishnt…!”
“Stop repeating yourself. It’s getting tiring.”
I clicked the left mouse button to answer Inagika’s call.
[Oh…! Hi, Laura…! I’m streaming right now, but I’m muted, so you can talk freely…]
Muted. In other words, her mic was off.
Just in case, I opened Inagika’s stream on my second monitor. It looked like she was streaming Minecraft.
“I see. What’s up?”
[Oh, well, I saw you were online, so… I thought I’d say hi…]
“Hmm. Is that how things are with Inagika?”
Inagika stamred nervously, and Anna whispered quietly in my ear.
If Inagika knew Anna was here, how would she react? She might hang up right away.
Maybe Anna was whispering out of consideration for Inagika’s personality. In monts like this, Anna does seem like a kind-hearted person.
“If you have sothing to say, go ahead, Inagika. I’m listening.”
[Uh, yeah… Could you… log into Minecraft…?]
Today again?
I was planning to run the Labyrinthos Duel Mode for a bit. Why do people keep pulling back to Minecraft?
“Is sothing wrong?”
I was curious.
If Sora were asking for help, I’d understand, but for Inagika to ask was unusual. Inagika was the most experienced Minecraft player among us.
While I’m much better than Inagika at combat and adventuring, Minecraft values building and Redstone circuit knowledge more than fighting skills.
In that sense, Inagika was incredibly knowledgeable, and unlike , who hadn’t played Minecraft in two years, she was up to date with all the latest patches. So it seed strange for her to ask for help.
[W-Well, Sora and Chell went to the city… so I’m the only one left at our base…]
Inagika’s voice trembled. It seed like sothing serious had happened.
Guess I had no choice.
I logged into Minecraft.
“Hello? This is our first ti talking like this, right?”
In front of was an unfamiliar avatar. The voice greeting was lively, though a bit low-pitched.
“I’m Kisaki Rinko. I’m a fan. I always enjoy watching your streams.”
That’s how she introduced herself.
Kisaki Rinko.
One of only two 1st-gen VTubers in EYEAI, and the VTuber with the most subscribers among us all.
And aside from , she’s the only VTuber in EYEAI whose main content is Labyrinthos.
Or is she?
Maybe it would be more accurate to say she was the VTuber whose main content was Labyrinthos.
