Mizuki takes a deep breath and nods to Takaki. Takaki nods back and enters his own VR space to watch the stream.
Takaki's mind is in in chaos. His sister decided to play the game directly on livestream so that the reactions look natural. He tried to convince her to try the game atleast once but it was futile.
Now, all he can do is wait.
Mizuki customizes her outfit in the VR space and with a bright smile, she starts the stream.
Waterbunny99 has started the stream.
"Helloooo viewers, missed me?"
As soon as the stream started, there were almost 390 viewers.
Mizuki, with her beautiful looks, sweet voice and a cute outfit, she immediately captivated her viewers with just a Wink.
Takaki was not surprised that she had so many viewers even though she does not stream regularly.
[MADmango : oh, she is back. what took you so long.]
[zrocker12: she is so cute today]
[redmanbald: I was waiting for you]
[renzyfrenzy: wow, I just joined a random stream. Didn't expect her to be this beautiful]
[hatemelol : What are we going to do today, bunny99]
[redyawn : It has been a long time, waterbunny99]
"I know that you are all excited. we are going to do something different today."
[bluebird: Different? Are you going to play a VR game by any chance, LOL]
[redlilily: That would be too funny. LOL]
[welcome23: Haha, who even plays a VR game ]
"That's right. we are going to play a VR game today."
[bluebird : ???]
[appystick : seriously?]
[baby24 : are you alright? ]
"Now, now, everyone. You see, My brother is promoting an indie game. so, as a big sister, I want to do my best to help him"
Mizuki, saying that with a determined expression immediately changes the mood of viewers.
[redyawn : so cute.]
[renzyfrenzy : A VR game on a stream. It's been a long time since i joined a stream like that. Just so you know, I am a newbie killer.]
[MADmango : Don't worry. she is good at 2D games.]
[trunk9897: 2D and VR are different. LOL]
[redstamp: Let's go see this indie game.]
[eraroll : haha, i will count the number of bugs. LOL]
[pinpill : Let's go. Go GO Go]
"Thank you guys. The name of the studio is sleeping squirrel. And if any of you want to play the the demo, it is available on ANY-net."
Saying that Mizuki logs in to the ANY-net and downloads the demo game on livestream.
"oh, i heard that it is a zombie game. so i am a little excited"
Hearing that some viewers feel intigrued and some viewres already guessed since the name of the game is DeathWard.
The moment the loading screen faded, the world snapped into place.
Cold air brushed Mizuki's arms. Opening her eyes, she finds herself on a bed in a creepy hospital ward.
Dimly lit lights and a desolated atmosphere makes Mizuki shiver but a small smile involuntarily creeps onto her lips.
The sensation just like that of a High-quality horror movie makes Mizuki excited.
Yes, she is scared, but it is not like she would stop because of it. Just like a few people can't stop watching horror movies even though it scares them. The fear is an enjoyment in itself. And Mizuki is one of those people who enjoys that fear.
[ringoapple : Wow, Look at the vibe. Completely unexpected. LOL]
[bluebanana : I am more surprised that the background is intact. LOL]
[ fieldpepper: She did not even start the game yet, guys]
While Mizuki is skimming through the chat messages, a system panel chimes in.
[ WELCOME TO DEATH WARD.
YOUR GOAL IS TO SURVIVE.
QUEST MISSION : ESCAPE THE HOSPITAL SAFELY.
SUB-MISSION: Obtain the access card near the doctor's corpse and enter the staff room. ]
Mizuki reads aloud the contents of the system panel and closes it. While wondering if she should explore her surroundings first or start the mission, another system panel chimes in.
[ HELLO
YOU CAN ADRESS ME AS SYSTEM
LET ME TELL YOU THIS FIRST
YOU FORGOT THAT YOU HAVE AMNESIA
DO NOT WORRY.
SINCE YOU WOULD HAVE MUSCLE MEMORY ALL YOU NEED IS A PUSH
READY FOR COMBAT?
I WILL HELP YOU
THAT PLACE LOOKS GOOD
STAND THERE ]
In the space accross the beds Mizuki could see a glowing marker.
The moment mizuki stands on the glowing marker. In a little distance, the grounds begins to crack and a zombie head pops out.
The zombie roars, while still in the ground.
Mizuki stares with a blank face
"Is that supposed to be a scare?"
The zombie head shows frustation and comes out of the ground with the help of his hands.
Now, the zombie stands there, almost 6 feet tall, with a smirk on his face and roars again.
[ THAT WAS SCARY.
BUT PERFECT TIMING
LETS USE THAT ZOMBIE AS A TRAINING DUMMY]
Mizuki twitches her lips and bursts in anger.
" I know that this is all scripted but can you be any less obvious."
Pointing towards the system, Mizuki flares up again
" In the first place, you are the one who told me to stand here.
And if you are going to act surprised, do it a little more sincearly. Hey, Respond to me system"
[WEakplum : Haha, calm down waterbunny, the system AI can't understand you]
[orca76 : But that zombie was scary, i got shivers, haha]
[ravenbee : yeah, yeah, I was scared to death, LOL]
[oakweed : Haha, my heart stopped when that zombie gave a smirk, LOL]
[weelseal : how can you say it is scripted bunny99, it is not, haha]
[reevsday : Waterbunny, watch out, that zombie is doing something.]
The zombie, clearly irritated stomps its legs angrily and rushes towards Mizuki.
