Another window suddenly popped up beside the chat, glowing in a bright rainbow color.
「Acardthatwasmaxxedoutwithcash has sent a Super Chat:
NO... please... I’m gonna die... I already spent tons for super chat... since do#o isn’t allowed yet... (ᗒᗩᗕ) please? my... ’HANDSO, GLORIOUS, STRONG IDOL?’」
Si Hon’s eyes twitched.
"...Excuse ?"
He stared at the ssage for a mont before sighing and rubbing his temple.
"Fine... alright... System," he muttered. "Could I at least make them invisible?"
A familiar bluish window appeared in front of him almost instantly.
「Yes, you can Si Hon. Just scroll down on the stream window and you can see the settings there. (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ sorry Si Hon... I will be gone for a while by the way... ask your chats if you need anything... I’m going to be quite busy from now on.」
Si Hon paused.
For so reason, reading that made his chest feel strangely heavy.
"...Oh."
He scratched his cheek awkwardly before looking up at the floating window again.
"Well... thank you, Systemy. Thank you for being with since the beginning." His voice beca suspiciously dramatic as he placed a hand over his chest. "Actually... you only talked to once when I was dropped into Snowfall Mountain but— still. I’ll miss you."
A single tear rolled down his left eye.
"I swear! I’ll carry on yo—"
Systemy interrupted imdiately.
「...ಠ_ಠ I’m not going away. I’m just going to fix sothing and will be doing a lot from now on since because of... you know? I’ll just talk to you once you’re done here and escape... or once every shenanigans thing in your life is finished.」
Si Hon froze.
"...Oh..."
Silence.
He slowly wiped the tear off his face.
"That’s embarrassing."
The text window flickered once, and just before disappearing, the words shifted slightly.
「Good luck Si Hon. I will be sad if I co back and you’re not there.」
And then it vanished.
For a brief second, the tunnel felt strangely quiet.
Then—
Dozens of chat windows suddenly exploded across his vision again.
「WOOOOOO!!! Drama?!」
「DRAMA ARC!!! (≧▽≦)???」
「hm.... uh... kewk? Lmao... sob, sob. T^T...?...」
「This guy system Just said he should ask us? Whenever he doesn’t know sothing? What the f###?!」
「Agree, agree... well we should atleast do this, you know? Since... I’m pretty sure all the adm##### are busy too since there’s going to be an event soon.」
Si Hon only glanced at the chaos for half a second before his hand automatically moved, scrolling quickly through the interface until he found the settings button hidden at the bottom.
A new window appeared.
[Hide chats— make the chats invisible from anyone: once accepted you may no longer enable it again.]
[Accept / Decline]
Si Hon didn’t even hesitate.
He tapped Accept.
Then—
Nothing happened.
No flash of light. No magical sparkle. Not even a dramatic ding like the kind you’d expect from so legendary system setting being changed.
The streaming window simply... stayed there.
Si Hon stared at it.
"...There’s nothing happening?" he muttered slowly, squinting at the floating interface as if it might suddenly decide to start glowing if he looked hard enough.
The settings window had already disappeared, aning the change had definitely gone through.
He blinked.
Then blinked again.
"ಠ_ಠ ...That’s it?"
The response was imdiate.
Dozens of chat windows burst into existence in front of him.
「Special effects don’t an anything, Si Hon」
「Lmao bro expected sothing cool to happen (╹▽╹)」
「KEWK—he definitely thought there’d be so dramatic ani transformation scene or sothing (≧▽≦)」
Si Hon slowly rubbed his temple.
"I an... I kinda did."
Just then, another rainbow-colored window popped into view with an unnecessary amount of glowing sparkles.
「Acardthatwasmaxxedoutwithcash has sent a Super Chat:
Don’t worry about them, Si Hon. You can relax now. The stream windows are only visible to you from now on, so there’s nothing to worry about anymore. ( •̀ ω •́ )و」
Imdiately, several normal chat ssages appeared beneath it.
「This guy is actually pissing off」
「Is he aiming for super fan status or just flexing his wallet?」
「Probably both」
Si Hon stared at the rainbow ssage for a mont before scratching his cheek awkwardly.
"Could I ask sothing?" he said.
The chat paused for half a second.
"What exactly is a super fan?"
Silence.
Then the responses started pouring in.
「Super fan is... super fan... ಠ_ಠ」
「Bro how did even you reach level 20 and still ask that」
「Is this guy actually dumb, I ant Si Hon and the guy above my chats」
Si Hon slowly narrowed his eyes.
"You know, explaining things usually helps."
Another ssage appeared, this one sounding slightly more patient.
「Aigo... don’t mind those guys. Super fan is basically a special status. If soone becos a super fan they can elect soone to a m—」
Before the explanation could finish—
A rainbow window violently shoved itself into the middle of the chat.
Sparkles.
Shimring effects.
Unnecessary glitters.
「shutyourmouth192 has sent a Super Chat:
WOOHOOOO! Guys! Isn’t the weather nice today?!」
The chat imdiately exploded.
「BRO STOP INTERRUPTING」
「HE WAS EXPLAINING」
「WHAT WEATHER?! WE’RE IN A DUNGEON」
Si Hon blinked slowly.
"For sure that was definitely sent on purpose."
More ssages flooded in.
「Yep」
「100% trolling」
「Classic rich viewer behavior」
Another viewer tried again.
「Anyway like I was saying... if soone becos a super fan they can elect soone here to he a m—」
DING.
Another rainbow window exploded onto the screen.
「VeryResponsibleViewer has sent a Super Chat:
Si Hon did you drink water today? Hydration is important」
The chat lost its mind.
「STOP INTERRUPTING」
「THIS IS SABOTAGE」
「LET HIM LEARN!!!」
Si Hon sighed deeply.
"...At this rate I’m never going to learn what that ans."
One viewer tried a third ti.
「Okay listen carefully Si Hon. Super fan basically ans—」
Suddenly—
Si Hon froze.
The chat kept scrolling.
But his eyes weren’t on the ssages anymore. They were looking past them.
Down the tunnel behind the floating windows.
The darkness at the far end of the corridor shifted, at first it looked like shadows. Then the shadows started moving.
A lot of shadows.
The sound ca next, scraping claws, heavy breathing, stone grinding beneath a enormous weight.
The chat slowly began to notice it.
「...Uh」
「Guys」
「Why is the background moving」
「OH」
「I an OH NO!」
Si Hon’s eyes twitched.
"Don’t tell ."
More shapes crawled out of the darkness.
One Munches.
Then three.
Then ten.
Then—
The entire corridor behind him filled with twisted bulky bodies and glowing eyes.
One of the creatures leaned forward and sniffed the air.
Then its head snapped forward.
Directly at Si Hon.
For a brief mont— Si Hon and the monster stared at each other.
Then the Munches scread.
"HRRRAAAAHHHH!!!"
The entire swarm charged.
Si Hon didn’t even hesitate.
"Fuck this!"
He turned and ran.
Behind him the tunnel exploded with screeching monsters as dozens of Munches stord after him, claws smashing against the stone floor while the chat windows above his head completely lost control.
「HE FOUND MORE」
「WHY ARE THERE SO MANY」
「RUN RUN RUN」
「BRO JUST ESCAPED!!!!」
Si Hon sprinted down the corridor like his life depended on it. Which it absolutely did...
"I SWEAR," he shouted while running, "I WAS JUST TRYING TO LEARN WHAT A SUPER FAN IS!"
The Lair did not care and of course neither did the Munches.
They only ran faster.
