During my short time as a streamer, I had received various proposals, but none of them seemed bad. Whether it's luck or not, I don't know, but I guess I could say there hasn’t been any that I could call bad so far. Because of that, I had a positive impression of "proposals."
“What kind of proposal?”
The moment I heard Harin was the one making the proposal, I felt like it probably wouldn’t be bad. So, I asked.
[Harin: Ah, it’s nothing special]
[Harin: Recently, there’s a server where streamers gather]
[Harin: to play games together]
[Harin: Want to join?]
An unexpected answer came back. A server where streamers gather to play games together.
“Is the game you’re talking about Leore?”
I was a little confused, just hearing "game" as it could mean anything.
[Harin: Oh]
[Harin: Not Leore]
[Harin: Do you remember playing Minecraft when you were younger?]
[Harin: It’s that.]
[Oh]
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: So, you're finally entering the major league..]
[대 다 마]
[환희: It's the place you can only enter if you have an invite, lol]
[망밍: Oh, I have an invite too]
[망밍: I'll give you mine so you can enter.]
From the chat, it was clearly Minecraft, a game I was familiar with. The game where everything is blocky, and if you know even a little about games, you couldn’t miss it.
“But, I’m not really that good at Minecraft.”
Of course, I could play it at a basic level, but I wasn’t particularly skilled. I had no real interest in Minecraft and hadn’t played it in a long time. I only knew the controls, but compared to those who had played it a lot, I wasn’t good at it.
[It’s fine if you’re not good]
[Who even needs to be good at Minecraft? Haha]
[We’re just gathering to chat, after all]
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: So, are you going to do it or not?]
[Harin: Please let me know if you’re in]
[Harin: I’ll put in the invite]
[Why is it just Harin doing this? I want to do it too]
[Forced exit!]
[Such a pain, we should seriously sue]
[Sue, seriously haha]
[Please go to America TV or something, stop lowering Twitch’s standards]
[Fact is, Twitch and America TV are the same level...]

“I’ll join if you send me the invite. I’ve been getting a bit bored just playing Leore all the time lately.”
I was enjoying Leore a lot, but after playing it all day, it could get a little boring. Sometimes, it was necessary to mix things up.
[Harin: Oh, then]
[Harin: I’ll send you the invite]
[Harin: One moment]
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: Minecraft sounds fun though]
[If it's Minecraft, of course I’d be in haha]
[Leore tier up? Forget about it, you can’t focus on Leore all day]
“I’ve raised my tier quite a bit already, though. It’s fine to take it slow from now on.”
My current score was 94 points in Master rank. Honestly, this was a very high score. There were only around 2,000 players ranked above me.
Saying this, I switched screens briefly. A moment later,
Ding–!
A file was sent from Harin, detailing how to join the server. The method was quite complicated. It was difficult to explain in words.
‘Do I really have to do all this?’
It felt like overkill just to join one server. I couldn’t imagine that there were that many people wanting to join, but since I received the instructions, I had to give it a try.
“Just a moment. I’ll try joining quickly.”
I hadn’t played Minecraft with anyone else much, so the process of joining the server was more difficult than I thought. It seemed to have a system to it. After some time passed,
[Harin: Have you still not joined yet?]
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: Haha, you can’t even join a Minecraft server]
[환희: How can you be this young and still not able to join a server?]
[Just quit]
[Seriously, this is ridiculous]
[강후민입니다: Just ask Harin for help if it’s too hard]
“No, I can do it myself.”
I hated asking others for help with these things. I could handle it on my own.
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: If you can do it]
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: Then just do it, you old man]
[Haha]
[Nothing beats Cthulhu’s sharp remarks haha]
[But seriously, it’s hard to handle this]
[When’s it starting? When’s it starting? When’s it starting? When’s it starting?]
[Please start already...]
[Harin: If it’s hard]
[Harin: Let me know, I’ll help you]
[No, Harin, why would you say it like that]
[Ugh, you’ll be stuck trying to join all day]
I didn’t like them mocking me in the chat, but I didn’t pay attention to it. After all, I would eventually manage to join the server, and that was all that mattered. After some more time passed,
“Phew, I’m in.”
I finally made it. The process was so complicated that I wondered if anyone else could have joined without help.
Thinking that, I switched the screen back.
“Done.”
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: 21 minutes to do it? That’s normal...]
[Seriously, just get help next time...]
[It’s all about pride]
[Oh, Damashii actually proved it haha]
[Harin: Oh, you did it]
[Harin: Then just stay there]
[Harin: I’ll be waiting by the entrance]
[강후민입니다: Don’t mess with my Damashii, you jerk]
[Looks like Damashii is really the best haha]
Following Harin’s instructions, I clicked the server link.
Then-
[Connecting...]
The message "Connecting..." popped up, and after a short moment.
Swoosh–!
An image I was familiar with appeared in front of me.
“Oh.”
It was a bit new for me, since it had been 2 years since I last logged into Minecraft. It felt kind of fresh, if that makes sense.
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: Finally in]
[Did you add a skin?]
[I bet you don’t have one]
[A Minecraft newbie wouldn’t have a skin haha]
[환희: I want to give you a new one]
“I have a skin!”
Saying this, I switched to third-person perspective and proudly showed off my skin. It was probably one I had received from someone I met online a while ago, and I had kept it because I liked it so much.
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: Whoa]
[Harin: Whoa]
[망밍: Whoa]
[강후민입니다: Whoa]
[환희: Whoa]
Everyone was astonished. It was understandable, as I hadn’t seen a skin this cool in Minecraft either.
“Cool, right?”
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: This is a bit weird to say]
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: Your character looks like they’d be really into LGBT]
[For real]
[Why the heck did you make it like that]
[You’d probably say you’re vegan but eat meat like a pro]
[Why is the hair purple?]
[It’s so confusing]
[강후민입니다: Where the hell did you get that skin? Whoever spread that, seriously, they need to be punished.]
“No, it’s just pretty. Why are you all being so rude?”
I honestly thought it was a very pretty skin, so I was a little disappointed by the reactions. As I was feeling upset,
-Damashii,
I heard a familiar voice.
“Oh, what’s that? Why are you so sparkly?”
Harin appeared in front of me, wearing expensive-looking armor.
It felt like someone showing off luxury goods in front of their friends.
‘...It does look cool.’
The black armor she wore looked incredibly impressive.
-Just, you know... I picked it up while wandering around.
“Wow...”
-By the way, let me show you around the server. It can be hard to adapt at first, but once you do, it’s really fun.
“Sure.”
As far as I knew, this server was a special place for streamers and BJs that opened as an event server.
So following Harin seemed like the best choice.
Step, step.
As I followed Harin, listening to her explanation about how the server worked, at that moment:
-Harin! Hi!
-Hi.
A woman’s voice casually greeted Harin. But then-
‘Wait a second.’
I recognized that voice from somewhere. I had heard it recently quite a bit.
From that, I could guess-
“Pine, is that you?”
It was definitely Pine.
[🗡️전지좆능한크툴루: Pine is here, wtf haha]
[Millions of won gone~~~]
[The one who handed over a million won to Damashii GOAT]
[This is hilarious haha]
[Pine, why are you here?]
[Pine, hi]
When I greeted her-
-Oh, um... Hi?
Pine’s response came with the tone of someone who didn’t recognize me.
