Bottom-tier voice actress wants to become a big star on VTuber.

That means the cat won't be available for another two months. Otherwise, you could just attach it to Rion Takamiya and switch back to use a skill when the cooldown is over.

"Ah! Hi, I, I understand."

As long as she doesn't deliberately yell, Kagura Mea's voice is actually quite nice; after all, she was marketed as a cute voice streamer when she first debuted.

"Speaking of which, you've only just met her, and you're already not using honorifics anymore. Why are you still calling me Rion-san?"

Perhaps because it hasn't aired yet, Rion Takamiya's voice really sounds like that of a young lady from a wealthy family. It's no wonder she has a family crest and has to visit the main family for the New Year.

"Huh? But aren't you a senior?" Shimizu Toru realized that he hadn't used honorifics when he called Mea, and quickly made an excuse.

"Liar! Isn't Lily your senior too? You didn't use honorifics either!" Rion Takamiya was clearly very dissatisfied with him, who was targeting her specifically.

"That's because before I could even react, she had already called me Tou. I couldn't keep calling her 'senior,' could I? That would be too unfair."

Upon hearing this, Rion Takamiya replied without hesitation, "Then I'll call you Toru from now on. Think about what you should call me?"

"Uh...o jou sama?"

"Uh-doki!"

Rion Takamiya was completely overwhelmed by Toru Shimizu's voice, which also affected two other people in the voice channel.

Especially Kagura Mea, who already really liked Ikemen voice acting and had made a few mistakes with it, immediately made an ominous "Oh ho ho ho" sound.

Only the relatively resistant Lily in the sunset could sigh, "Tou, you are truly a sinful man."

----------------------------

Why is everyone voting for recommendation? Can someone send more razor blades? I'll use them to replace them.

Volume 1: Chapter 21 Inviting a beautiful girl to eat spicy hot pot?

In version S9, two new ranks, Iron and Grandmaster, were added, and each major rank was changed from five sub-ranks to four.

From then on, the lowest skill level in League of Legends changed from Bronze V and Bronze V to Iron IV. Of course, if you can't even break through Iron, you can basically say goodbye to the game.

To teach Mea how to play top lane, Shimizu Tou played five games of Renekton in a row, explaining everything from kiting, controlling rage, and managing minion waves to how to divide the battlefield in team fights.

Of course, he also taught Yuhi Lily and Takamiya Rion how to farm, dominate the battlefield, initiate team fights, and protect the AD carry.

Noticing that they had absorbed too much knowledge at once and their minds were already dizzy, he clicked his tongue with a hint of regret: "That's all for today. Try to integrate it when you play by yourself later."

No wonder people like to point and comment when watching others play chess; the desire to teach is indeed a flaw ingrained in everyone's DNA.

Because we kept getting the opposing team to surrender at 15 minutes past 1:30, all three accounts reached Gold IV, and we could finally start playing five-player ranked matches.

At some point, Ye Shi, who had secretly entered the voice channel, asked, "Live stream? Or are you just watching alone?"

The phrase "eating alone" was something Shimizu Toru mentioned in his live stream yesterday, and I didn't expect him to remember it so quickly.

"I have to go to the company tonight to perform, so I won't be broadcasting. You can do whatever you want."

Hearing this, Lily in the Sunset couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why do we have to hold the song recital at the company? Is it a 3D song recital?"

"3D is still a long way off. The main problem is that the soundproofing in my apartment is not very good. Normally, it's okay to talk at this volume, but if I sing, it's easy to give away my identity as a streamer."

Of course, there are advantages too. As an apartment specifically rented to international students from the University of Tokyo, the rooms have natural gas, so you can cook with an open flame.

Most apartments in Japan do not offer this service, for fear of causing fires and unnecessary losses; tenants at most use induction cookers for cooking.

So even though schools teach home economics, most people never have the chance to use a natural gas stove again after graduation.

However, once she makes money, Shimizu Toru will definitely move, since she can't go to the company every time she holds a concert.

In addition, he also wanted to plant some fruits and vegetables before spring was over, so that he could at least feel at ease eating what he grew himself.

"Hey~ Can I go to your concert to hear you sing? Or how about we grab a bite to eat?"

Lily in the sunset gave a live demonstration of how a positive angle can bridge the gap between people. People with social anxiety would probably never be able to say something like that in their entire lives.

Shimizu Toru was already used to setting off immediately when a dinner party was mentioned, and had no concept of Japanese locals having to book other people's time a week or two in advance.

He immediately nodded and said, "Okay, come directly to Ikebukuro, I'll treat you to mala tang."

—It's not the six-yuan kind, don't get the wrong idea.

A few years later, it became a sensation throughout Japan, to the point that people had to queue for two hours to get a bite. At this time, it was still relatively unknown.

Even Mea, who frequently streams on Bilibili and has nearly 300,000 followers, doesn't know what that is, let alone others.

So Shimizu Toru gave them a brief introduction, which immediately piqued Takamiya Rion's interest: "It sounds delicious, I want to join in!"

"A noble lady actually gets curious about commoners' food? Anime wasn't lying to me after all." Master Ye just made a casual remark, not intending to join in the fun.

He's actually a bit slow to warm up to people. He's fine with people he knows well, but he would never meet someone he doesn't know well in person. He feels safer with someone on screen.

Mea was similar, even a bit more sensitive than him, to the point that she occasionally seemed a little neurotic and simply didn't speak.

When the broadcast started, viewers found that they could only hear the sound of clear water; there was no one in the live stream room at all.

Moreover, in order to prepare for the evening's song performance, he didn't say much, only offering a reminder during the gank.

I said I've arrived, then hit someone with a long-range Q, and pounced in leopard form.

On this day, players on the Japanese server finally witnessed what a "wild king" truly meant, and what it meant to leave nothing but desolation in his wake.

The opposing jungler only saw his own red and blue buffs at the very beginning of the game. After that, as soon as they respawned, they were immediately stolen by Qingshui Tou, who also cleared out his jungle completely.

After the game, I checked the statistics panel and found that the CS difference between the two opponents was more than 100. This was only because they surrendered quickly; otherwise, it could have been close to 300.

The scene was so bloody that viewers in the live streams of people like Xiyang Lili were urging Shimizu Toru to go easy on them.

Otherwise, the Japanese server, which already had a small player base, would lose dozens of players a day because of his actions.

"www, the audience is saying you went too far and might make other people quit the game."

Qingshui Tou, who automatically enters boosting mode whenever she plays Nidalee, raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "Then I'll play Nunu, and I'll only help you gank and counter-gank."

Indeed, given their current strength, forcibly elevating them to a higher level would be of little significance.

It would be better to be an on-field coach, teaching them how to play while honing their teamwork.

Who knows, maybe they can even win a championship in a similar tournament like V-League in the future?

After figuring this out, Shimizu Toru greatly reduced his aggressiveness, but the junglers he was matched with still often didn't see his red or blue buffs.

Because he always gave his own to Master Ye and the others, and then went to steal from others, he was even more of a bandit than Zhang Mazi.

Coincidentally, in patch S9, Riot Games removed the jungle experience compensation mechanism that had propelled Spicy Hot Pot to god-like status last year, and the "starvation jungler" strategy never recovered.

Adding to the version issues, junglers who start with blue buff and slowly farm until level six before ganking are actually more likely to win games than carry junglers like Nidalee and Kindred.

Therefore, after switching to Nunu, Qingshui actually ganked the lanes more frequently, making all three lanes strong and healthy.

In team fights, besides using his ultimate to divide the battlefield and control enemies with snowballs, he mainly acts as a disruptor, drawing enemy fire.

By letting others get the kills, the team atmosphere improved a lot. After all, who doesn't want to get kills in a game?

They played until after 5 a.m., and only after receiving a private message from Jiang on Line did they reluctantly log off the game.

"If you remember the location, send me the location and store name. I'll get ready and go catch the tram."

"Why don't you just come pick us up at Ikebukuro Station? Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll get lost."

Hearing what Lily Yuhi and Rion Takamiya said, Toru Shimizu thought about it and realized that Ikebukuro's exits weren't as outrageous as Shinjuku's two hundred, but fifty was already a lot.

Jinling Xinjiekou, which is known as the No. 1 subway station at Southeast University, only has 24 exits.

Even locals often get lost and go to the wrong exit at the station, which is a unique cultural experience that shouldn't be missed.

So in order not to get lost, Shimizu Toru tries to take the Arakawa Line whenever she goes out, and only considers other routes if that doesn't work.

------------------------

I received over thirty razor blades in one night. Thank you all for your support, godfathers. I'll add an extra chapter tonight.

Volume 1: Chapter 22 Self-Revealing Identity

Ikebukuro Station is Japan's third largest subway station after Shinjuku and Shibuya.

If we only consider the East Neon Railway line, its daily passenger flow is second only to Shinjuku Station.

There are eight lines from four different railway companies that can be transferred here, and it is also a major commuter transfer station for travel to Saitama Prefecture.

The area already had a large flow of people, and when I arrived at Qingshuitou it was right during the evening rush hour, so the place was packed with people.

"What a blunder. I should have arranged it for the weekend."

Although he described to the two women in the group chat what he was wearing that day and where he would be waiting for them.

But with so many people around, Shimizu Toru was a little worried that the two girls wouldn't be able to see her. After all, given the average height of Japanese girls, in a crowd, she would probably only be able to see their chests.

Just as he was thinking about calling Lily in the Sunset, her voice suddenly rang in his ear: "Tou?"

Shimizu Toru quickly looked up and saw a girl with shoulder-length short hair, her face clearly made up, and her clothes and voice matching her slightly androgynous appearance standing in front of her.

"Lily? How did you recognize me?" He didn't post a selfie in the group chat, after all, that would be a bit too narcissistic.

Upon hearing this, Lily in the Sunset smiled and pointed to the passersby who kept glancing in their direction: "Haven't you noticed that you've become the center of everyone's attention?"

If someone is suspected, you naturally have to come up and ask. If you're wrong, you can just apologize; it's not a big deal.

Touching the mask on her face, Qing Shui thought to herself, "Thank goodness I didn't show my face directly, otherwise there would have been a traffic jam."

Before he could ask how long it would take for Jin Hanhan to arrive, the slightly taller Takamiya Rion walked up to him and took his arm directly from Yuhi Riri.

"Lily~ Sassi, it's been over a month since we last saw each other, hasn't it?"

Both of them debuted last year, so they must have had meals together privately more than once.

"Yeah, the last time we met was when we recorded Valentine's Day audio together."

After replying to Rion Takamiya, Lily Yuhi immediately looked at Toru Shimizu and said, "By the way, this is Toru. What do you think? Isn't he super handsome?"

"Kaku! I didn't expect you to actually be a boy, Tou. I thought you were a girl like Lily."

Upon hearing this, Shimizu Toru's lips twitched, and he said speechlessly, "So the reason you came here without worry is because you thought it was a women's gathering?"

It's not surprising that Rion Takamiya misunderstood, mainly because young male voice actors, whether in reality or in the fields of anime and game voice acting, are mostly female.

Boys with a boyish voice like him are as rare as Higashi Yukiren—if we're talking about falsetto, there are more boyish voices like Suzuki Masaru's.

"Hehe~ Don't be angry, how about I treat you to some barbecue later?"

As expected of the young lady who would lend 50 yen to Maimoto and Riki without even asking for a reason if they asked her for money, Takamiya Rion immediately offered to treat them to a meal.

Although Shimizu Toru was short of money, he still felt a little embarrassed to ask the girl to pay the bill on their first meeting.

Even if they secretly paid the bill under the guise of going to the restroom, they should at least split the bill.

Besides, a barbecue meal while chatting would take at least an hour, so I'll have to go back to the BBQ restaurant Xuxuyuan, the designated BBQ spot in the V-circle, to see just how delicious it really is.

After exiting Ikebukuro East Exit, Shimizu Toru took the two directly to Zhang Liang Malatang, located in Higashi-Ikebukuro 1-chome. As for the other chain, Yang Guofu, they would have to wait a few more years.

Hello, welcome!

As expected of Ikebukuro West Exit North, the waiter spoke fluent Mandarin, leaving Yuhi Lily and Takamiya Rion completely bewildered.

Shimizu Toru gave them both a reassuring look, glanced at the dishes with Chinese and hiragana translations, and said, "The soup base is 300 yen, and each side dish is 100 yen, right?"

If you convert it, the soup base costs about 20 yuan and the side dishes cost about 6.5 yuan per serving. Surprisingly, they are not weighed together, but each serving is divided according to its weight first.

"Yes, we also have drinks, beer and barbecue. Would you like to try some?"

Hearing this, Shimizu Toru glanced at the freezer and saw iced tea, plum juice, cola, Sprite, and even coconut palms. It felt just like being back in China.

After thinking for a moment, he simply took three cans of coconut palm and led the two of them to choose vegetables.

"Wow, amazing! Tou, you're not really a transfer student from China, are you? Your Chinese is so fluent."

Although she only knows how to say "hello," "thank you," and "xiaolongbao," Xiyang Lili can still tell whether others stutter or not when speaking foreign languages.

"China shouldn't have a surname like Yuzuru, right? So Toru is actually of Chinese descent!?" After adding a portion of tripe to her basket, Takamiya Rion felt she had realized the truth.

After taking a deep breath of cold noodles, Shimizu Toru said with a pained expression, "Is it possible, I mean possible, that my surname isn't actually Yuzuru?"

"That's true, how could they debut using their real name?"

"I don't know if anyone debuted as a live streamer using their real name, but there are indeed voice actors who haven't used pseudonyms and have done voice acting in the adult entertainment industry."

Who is it? It's so hard to guess.
