Capítulo 75: Chapter 75
"Thank you mimopipo11 for the 5 gift subs. Thank you very much!"
From behind, I heard Charlotte's voice.
"Charlie. I want to try playing."
I immediately disabled the camera and muted the mic.
I was currently streaming and playing rocket league as it seems to be one of the games many people have been enjoying so far with levels of popularity not short of Among Us.
[Chat:
Charlxiesimp_: IS THAT HIS GIRLFRIEND
Makaaaayllll: NO FUKEN WAY NOOOOOOOOOO
carfootballplayr: lol charlie u should play rumble its rlly fun
ARDEnnnnnNN: CHARLIE YOU HAVE A GIRLFRINED?]
I glanced at chat quickly and looked back at Charlotte.
"Uh… Chat is… freaking out right now."
She stated the obvious.
"...Yup."
She stuck her tongue out.
"Can I play, though?"
I glanced at the viewer count. 82,000. Not bad for solo gameplay.
If I played with Reed or somebody else, I'd probably be at 100,000 right now.
"Okay. I can't turn on the camera, though."
"No. Turn it on."
I frowned.
"You want people to see you?"
"Ye—"
"Really? Why?"
"...My friends are watching your stream and… they bet me two hundred dollars if I could appear on your stream."
Two hundred dollars...
Here comes again the topic of security. Also one of the reasons I was hesitating whether I should go on the popstar career path instead of an otherwise low-key one.
I sighed.
"You want… 200 dollars for your face to appear on the internet forever and to have 82,000 people see your face?"
She nodded hesitantly.
"I also… I've been in many schools plays before and I think it'd be good for me if I can get some public exposure."
"... I see."
I shifted uncomfortably in my seat and asked her another question.
"What do you want to be when you grow up?"
"I want to be an actor."
She stated with a fire in her eyes.
The passion of her statement cut short my hesitation and an appreciation rose up from inside my heart.
Back on Earth, I don't think she was at all interested in acting.
It's surprising that she's very passionate about it now…
It kind of makes me feel a little shameful of myself. Although I've been practicing a lot for my career, the passion I hold for this isn't as palpable as hers.
Though I do enjoy doing what I do, it's not the same as her where she loves doing what she does.
If I could have a passion for all of these things I've been gifted the ability to do… how would I progress here?
Rather, what is my passion?
Do I just enjoy living life with a system? Getting famous?
Or do I just enjoy the system's level system that allows me to get good at everything I want to?
Sigh. So complicated.
I looked back up at her eyes.
"Have you told Mom and Dad about it?"
"Dad was the one that gave me the idea to appear in your stream."
"Okay… are you completely sure about this?"
This question was a useless question and it was more for my concern than for her affirmation.
The flame in her eyes already told me what she wanted.
"Yes."
I turned the camera on and unmuted the mic.
"Hello, everyone. Please welcome my sister to the stream."
[Chat:
Bookieworm: THERES THE GIRLFRIEND OMG
Dreamcat: THATS HIS SISTER
nathanbrox: bruh chill lol thats his sister
chemmeme: is everyon in charlies family blessed with google looks
pianotechniq: wow i stan
Pamelia123: hi charlotte!!!!!!!!!
Jayavay: google looks?
chemmeme: good* srry autocorrect]
"Hello everyone!" She waved to the camera with her signature cute smile.
Her arm was shaking and her breath was rough, though. She barely just said 'hello everyone' and did with the tensest voice I've ever heard.
Her hands were roughly gripping each other in nervousness and her legs were shaking.
I looked at her eyes and patted her hand.
She stared back at me and her composure looked to be regaining.
Good. She got used to it so quickly. She's definitely something else.
She threw her hallmark V sign at the camera and closed her eyes while smiling.
What's she doing? Is she trying to gain simps at the age of 14 years old?
Chill out there.
On the controller, I queued up for a ranked game.
"Okay. Charlotte said she wanted to play so she'll be playing."
I felt her stare on the side of my head.
I stared back at her with a confused smile.
She merely kept her stare on me.
"..."
"..?"
I handed her the controller and a game was starting.
"Charlie…"
I looked at her, "...Yes?"
"...How do I play this game?"
…
"We're in a casual game right?"
'(Teammate): What a save!'
'(Teammate): what a save!'
'(Teammate): what a save!'
Our teammate was being toxic to her and what a save'd her mistakes.
She, however, did not see messages and I pretended I didn't either.
Meanwhile, the chat was going ham on the guy and some even declared they were sending him friend requests to bash him for provoking such an innocent girl.
"We're in a ranked game."
"...Wait, what?"
"Yep."
"What do you mean? What happens if we lose?"
"I lose my rank."
"Wait wait wait. Then why are we playing?! Quickly! Switch it to Casual!"
"No. If we leave the game we get banned."
"What?! Really? Why are we Ranked?! Charlie!"
She nervously clicked the buttons on the controller while I laughed my head off.
"Charlie if we lose it's your fault!"
"You're the one that's playing though…"
"You're the one that chose the ranked game!!!!"
She began banging my leg with her fist.
"Charlie! Do something."
"Nono, you've got to score a goal."
I took pity on her as she was on the verge of tears and took back the controller.
She harrumphed and slapped the back of my head.
"You're rude."
"Not rude."
"You are mean."
"People learn best when under pressure."
She hit my arm and glared at me.
I glanced at the viewer count.
123,211 people
Hahaha. After switching the title of the stream to 'Playing Rocket League with my sister' I gained a massive increase in viewers.
The chat was hysterical and exclaiming how adorable Charlotte was and some wanted to be her mother or older sister. Even some males jokingly said they wanted to be her mother.
Used to the shenanigans of chat, I merely laughed at their antiques.
I'll crack open that achievement egg in no time.
I ended up scoring a few goals to tie the game and ended the game with a banger overtime goal.
It really is unfair how quickly I learn the mechanics of a video game.
Even better is that the Gaming skill helps my game sense a lot and I don't frequently make many positional mistakes.
"See Charlotte? It's not that difficult."
She slapped the back of my head.
[Chat:
Trboooo: so violent
Twelfthbrother0: charlie blink twice if ur being abused at home
Haaghuman: LOL WTF]
The chat remarked on how often she slapped my head and how she repeatedly hit me.
I'm glad others are taking notice of the abuse I receive at home.
Reading the chat, she hugged my arm and insincerely apologized.
"I am very apologetic for beating you up, Charlie."
…
"Run up the cardio, Charlie boy!"
Liam was belly-laughing and having fun making me do exercises.
Meanwhile, he was also taking many pictures and exclaiming on how fun this is. That he never gets to do this.
The others meanwhile facepalmed and I merely did what he said while presenting myself as best as I could to the camera.
"Pause!"
I stood up quickly and took a bottle of water. Of course, this was another pose.
"Click!"
"Alright, that's it for this set. I think I took more than I needed but that's fine! I believe there's another athletic set?"
"...Mr. Liam… I believe there is not another sportswear set."
"I believe you are wrong."
"Sir…"
"Alright, next time there's another haul of sportswear just call me up and make sure to call up Charlie as well!"
"...Yes, of course."
"...Should we not have taken the pictures of the athletic wear after?"
"No, it's fine! The rosy complexion he has now is perfect for the refreshing mood of spring!"
Everyone was speechless at his eccentricity.
It does make a little sense though…
Or am I just turning weird being around other weird people?
…
"Keep working hard, Charlie!"
Hard work is my motto!
Or rather, it became ingrained into me because of the secret feature of A Master's Disposition.
I gave the crew a thumbs-up as they happily danced and fooled around.
Curious about the Achievement Egg's progress, I opened up my stats.
[Title: Trending, Hot Topic!, Streamer

Wow. I guess appearing worldwide on TV really is a gamechanger huh.
The stream with Felix and Arden also helped a lot I think. It's not everyday people get to see a famous singer and actor eating a mukbang together.
Of course, streaming is also very helpful as the viewers I now get per session are at a high rate so the achievement points gain will in turn be great as well.
In my pocket, my phone vibrated.
Speak of the devil.
(felix: omg charlie we should have our two sisters meet)
I quickly typed on my phone.
(Charlie: did u watch my stream?)
(felix: ye man that car game looks rlly fun but wouldnt they be best friends like us?)
(Charlie: does arden have a younger sister too?)
(felix: he does)
No way.
(Charlie: theres no way)
(felix: lol im joking he doesnt)
I sighed.
(Charlie: u rlly r a monkey)
(felix: :crying-emoji:)
(Charlie: i agree they should meet tho im sure itd be fun)
(felix: definitely)
I pocketed my phone and wiped my face with a towel.
"Charlie, do you need anyone to send you back home?"
I raised my hand waved it at them.
"Thank you. I came here by bicycle."
"Oh dang, okay. We'll see you later, then."
I went to the corner and patted the bicycle's seat. The bicycle I was gifted after that one Crocodile advertisement.
I wonder when it will be released?
"I'll see you guys tomorrow! Thank you for your hardwork."
I waved at them and set off to the road on my bicycle.
…
Well, since I'm on the road I think I can get a few snacks or maybe a boba.
Charlotte likes boba.
(Charlie: Charlotte, I'm near a boba and grocery store. Do you need anything?)
(Charlotte: Yah can u bring snacks?)
(Charlotte: Amelia is coming over soon)
Huh? It's pretty late… Oh. Right. It's a Saturday.
(Charlie: It's late. Is she sleeping over?)
(Charlotte: yap)
(Charlotte: shes asking if arlo can come over too)
Arlo?
What in the sis-con?
Does go to every single of his sister's sleepovers?
(Charlie: Yeah)
(Charlie: Tell her he can)
(Charlotte: ok thx)
(Charlotte: just bring the usual snacks)

(Abel: Charlie u have space for everyone right?)

(Natsumi: lets go go go go!!!!! Im almost here Charlie!)
(Elle: omg thats not fair u live so close together)
(Catherine: ur already out?!?!?)
(Natsumi: Lol no. I just live so close I can say I'm almost there anyway.)
When… did we agree to this?
(Reed: IM LATE TO THE CHAT BUT LETS GO IM PACKING UP MY PIJAMAS.)
(Alex: WHAT IF WE ALL BRING OUR HALLOWEEN ONESIeS AND USE THEM AS PIJAMAS)
Everyone agreed.
Tomorrow's a Sunday… Aren't Sundays to spend time with family?
Have you all asked permission from your parents?
Rather, do I have my parents' permission?
Sigh…
Well, I don't think I can say no after everyone's already so happy and excited.
I texted in my family's group chat explaining how everyone decided to have a sleep over at my house and my parents fortunately agreed happily.
(Mom: I want to meet all of your friends Charlie ! What should we prepare for dinner?)
(Dad: Hahaha your friends were exactly like mine. They always crashed at my house.)
(Charlie: It's fine mom. I'll cook dinner.)
(Charlie: How do you even deal with them dad?!?!)
(Charlie: They're like 17 people.)
