After returning to his residence, Seiji couldn't wait to open the system and check the new options.
"Playing basketball" required teammates and opponents, "Singing" and "Dancing" required an audience, and only "Writing a diary" and "Drawing" were available as long as he had something prepared.
Seiji immediately went out and bought a notebook.
"Writing a diary" lit up. He sat in front of the table and clicked on the option.
Suddenly, he had an urge to record everything that happened today, and his memory of everything that happened today became clear.
He followed this urge, picked up a pen, and started writing.
As it was his first day of school transfer, there were many things he could write about today. By the time Seiji finally finished writing, thirty minutes had passed.
"Ding dong!" A new system sound that he had never heard before rang out.
Seiji immediately checked and found that he had two points to exchange.
In the "Tools" option, the lowest "Sports — Track and Field Activation Card" required 20 points, and it seemed that he couldn't exchange for it right away.
After doing it once, the "Writing a diary" option turned dark, and relying on the same option to keep earning points would not work.
"If I want to get more points in a short period of time, I have to do different things …" Seiji rubbed his chin.
Was the system forcing him to develop in many ways?
"It's a dating sim system, but the more I use it, the further away I am from being an otaku!" Seiji complained to himself.
Wasn't that right? After transmigrating, because he had the system, other than working, he basically relied on the system to train. In the eyes of others, he was just a sunshine handsome guy who was passionate about living and exercising.
Where did the otaku race setting go!
Now that his Sports Points had risen to a sufficient level, and he was starting to get tired of working, Seiji actually wanted to use the save and load function to earn some quick money, stop working, and stop training, and enjoy the otaku food of this world.
However, the system's new "action" option, as well as the tempting "items", instantly destroyed the idea that had just surfaced in his mind.
"Alright, System, you win. I'll do it, I'll do it!" Seiji exhaled.
Growing on his own was also quite fun. With the help of a cheat like the dating sim system, he wanted to know just how much he could grow.
Of course, as an otaku, his hobbies wouldn't change, so he would try his best to develop in that direction.
Right now, the number of options for "actions" and "items" was still relatively small, but Seiji believed that as long as certain conditions were met, the number of options would increase.
It was very likely that in the future, there would be options such as "writing novels," "drawing comics," and "creating games"!
He could not recreate the classic works of his original world, but he could create his own. With the System, anything was possible!
Compared to moving artworks that he was familiar with from his original world, he was more interested in seeing new artworks from his own world. That would be even better! He couldn't wait to experience the joy of being a creator.
Now, it was time to start with one's feet firmly planted on the ground.
Seiji went out again and bought the colored pens and sketchbooks for "Painting". He then chose "Painting" (Required 15 Art Points).
However, he didn't know if it was because his drawing was terrible or something else, but he only got 1 point.
Seiji also learned something else. Choosing different options would give him different points. It might be related to his stats, or it might be related to the final product … in other words, the quality of the "operation".
In that case, the same option would give different points depending on the quality of the "operation"?
Seiji felt that it was quite possible. However, he would have to wait until tomorrow to test it out.
After going through "Diary" and "Drawing" once, the remaining options were "Basketball (requires 20 PE, 15 Communication)", "Singing (requires 15 Music, 15 Learning)", "Dancing (requires 15 Music, 20 Sports, 20 Charm)", and "Working (requires 20 Communication, 20 Sports, 20 Learning, 20 Charm)".
It was impossible to play basketball, and if he worked, he would need to go to the store. As for "Singing" and "Dancing" … was he supposed to make Mika an audience member?
Suddenly telling someone to come watch him sing and dance — what kind of idiot was that?
However, it would be a pity to give up. Unlike "Basketball", which required teammates and opponents, "Dancing" only required at least one audience member.
As Seiji thought about it, his gaze accidentally fell on his high-end computer, and a light bulb went off in his head.
Perhaps it wouldn't be limited to a face-to-face audience, but online audiences as well?
In Sakura Island, livestreaming was already a popular industry, and this computer, as well as the apartment's internet speed, were all suitable for livestreaming!
Seiji was tempted, and just as he was about to sit down in front of the computer, his stomach started growling.
'Alright, let's eat first …'
…
Flying Fish Who Loves Cats was a true otaku.
She hadn't been staying at home for a very long time, but something had happened to her that forced her to stay indoors.
Although that incident didn't have any actual negative consequences, and the instigator was punished, the scar in her heart still made it difficult for her to go out and face people.
Her older sister and best friend were worried about her, but they didn't force her to do anything, and her psychiatrist agreed to let her rest for a while.
That was why she stayed at home peacefully, surfing the internet, playing games, reading manga, watching anime …
Ironically, this was exactly what the person who had caused the scar in her heart had been doing all this time.
Flying Fish felt disgusted and repulsed by this, but she didn't want to give up on these hobbies. Giving up something that she truly loved just because of that person was undoubtedly a form of admitting defeat!
There was nothing wrong with being an otaku, nor was there anything wrong with her own hobbies; it was only that person's fault. That was what Flying Fish believed.
Tonight, she was also surfing the internet.
She entered a familiar livestream website, and when she saw that the streamer she liked wasn't there, she randomly scrolled to the end of the page and searched for a newbie streamer's room.
Compared to the popular streamers, she preferred streamers that weren't that popular, but had their own personality and style.
Of course, these types of streamers were rare, and the few she had found before had all gradually become popular streamers.
Perhaps she had the ability to discover new streamers?
With this realization, she preferred to discover newbie streamers even more.
Scrolling to the end of the page, she found a pitiful streamer's room with only one or two viewers.
Flying Fish clicked on the one she liked, and when she didn't like it, she clicked on it again and again.
Then, she clicked on the room of a streamer named "I Only Beg for One Person."
"H-hello!"
As soon as she entered, she saw a boy wearing a silver half-mask nervously greeting her.
"Flying Fish Who Loves Cats … thank you for clicking on me. If you could spend a few minutes here, that would be a great help to me." He spoke in a slightly different voice, which was obviously altered by the software.
"Pfft …" Flying Fish couldn't help but laugh.
This was the first time she had ever seen such a streamer, and this boy's jerky and nervous words and actions inexplicably struck her cute spot.
Although he was wearing a silver half-mask that only revealed the lower half of his face, she could still tell that he was quite handsome, and his body was quite muscular. In terms of hardware alone, he was stronger than many male streamers.
"Er … I'm going to start singing now, and I'll even dance a little later. I hope that you can watch to the end."
After saying that, the streamer "I Only Beg for One Person" began to sing. He was singing the theme song from the popular anime "Honey Candy Girl" that Flying Fish loved!
Flying Fish smiled as she looked at this boy who was still a little nervous.
To be honest, his singing was quite average. It wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't good either, and it didn't contain any emotions. It was just an ordinary singing, the level of an ordinary middle school student at a karaoke bar.
The song wasn't long, and it ended very quickly. The boy seemed rather happy.
"Thank you for listening to the end. I'm going to dance next, er … you can laugh all you want since I can't see it."
Flying Fish burst out laughing for the second time.
Since he had made her laugh twice, she added it to her collection and even gifted him a few "apples," which were virtual currency for tipping streamers.
"Thank you for the apples, but you don't need to give me these. It's fine as long as you can watch to the end of my performance." The masked boy paused for a moment before smiling.
His smile was quite tasteful. Flying Fish couldn't help but think that he must be quite a handsome boy in real life, and that it would be great if he could take off his mask.
On the screen, the masked boy turned on the music and began dancing to the music. It was a rather simple otaku dance.
At first, his movements were rather stiff, but he slowly relaxed and even purposely exaggerated his movements.
By the end, Flying Fish was already covering her mouth and giggling incessantly in front of the screen.
'Too cute, too cute, this boy!'
"Take off your mask, cute handsome boy ~" She couldn't help but type out this bullet comment.
"Oh, that won't do. I'm very shy, kind beauty ~" the boy responded.
Flying Fish almost collapsed on the table.
"How did you know I was a beauty?"
"Of course it's my sixth sense!"
"That's amazing; I'm indeed a beauty — the type that can be an idol."
"Idol, let's go to the sky together!" The boy pointed to the sky, spread his legs, and swayed his hips.
Flying Fish laughed out loud for the third time.
The boy finished his dance, exhaled, and returned to the screen.
"Oh, thank you for watching my performance; I'm going to log off now."
"Eh? You're not going to stream for a little longer? I can help you get more viewers ~ "
"Thanks, but there's no need for that; it's fine as long as you're by yourself." The boy smiled sincerely.
Even though Flying Fish knew that he was just being polite, she was still slightly moved. His smile was just that charming.
Ahh — why didn't he take off his mask? Damn it!
"I hope that you can come tomorrow as well. Goodbye." The screen turned black after saying that.
He really turned off his stream just like that? Flying Fish was slightly confused, but she did have an impression of him because of his personality.
Tomorrow … at the same time tomorrow, he decided to come back and watch again.
Flying Fish felt a tiny bit of anticipation in her heart.
…
"Whew — I'm finally done." Seiji took off his silver mask and heaved a sigh of relief.
Thanks to his kind online friend, "Flying Fish Who Loves Cats," he completed the two action options of "singing" and "dancing," which earned him 2 points.
Viewers were also viewers, so his idea was correct.
It was just that this method wasn't very stable, and he wasn't sure if he would have the luck of meeting another viewer tomorrow.
"A top-tier streamer earns a million a day, while a low-tier streamer earns nothing," he commented to himself. After starting his stream, he waited for nearly thirty minutes for his first viewer, and he almost gave up.
