Deep Sea Fish Hunting Specialty Broadcast – 31

EP.31 Train (4)

─Wow, that size is insane. I’m going diving right away.

“What did you say?”

─Take that back immediately!!!

─Wait, hold on.

─Admin, we apologize on his behalf.

─Please, just this once, we beg you.

The chat exploded with reactions.

An unknown newcomer viewer.

He had said something that should never be said on Parang’s broadcast.

No one had ever typed such a message before, so they didn’t know what would happen if someone did.

But there was one thing they knew for sure.

This broadcast, right now, was extremely dangerous.

Parang’s expression in the third-person view was colder than ever.

Without a word, Parang tapped on her phone and brought up the one-on-one chat mode.

If the viewer was unaware, she planned to sternly reprimand him; if he was doing it on purpose, she intended to ignore him.

─Wow, that size is insane. I’m going diving right away.

The first message he sent after joining the broadcast. Parang stared at it intently.

Fortunately, it seemed the statement ‘I’m going diving right away’ was a lie, as the problematic viewer asked a puzzled question.

─? Why are you all reacting like this?

─What’s going on?

─???

Seeing that he seemed to be just an ordinary newcomer, Parang felt relieved.

In this case, a stern reprimand would suffice.

It was an unprecedented situation, but not one she couldn’t handle.

“You can’t say you’re going diving on this broadcast. You can’t actually go diving either. Don’t dive.”

─But why?

“Just don’t do it if I say don’t. It’s really dangerous. There should be some videos on T-tube, watch those.”

‘Why are you so serious about this? They won’t even reach the monster layer anyway. Can’t you just ban them and be done with it?’ one might ask.

Parang knew the odds were slim.

But there was a precedent with Shin Yuna. The difference between 0 and 1 can sometimes be infinitely large.

And it could be a matter of life and death. If a hunter actually died because they went diving after watching her, Parang would be wracked with guilt for a long time.

Her unnecessarily kind nature was a problem in times like these.

“Hm.”

Vertea sat in front of the computer, stroking her chin.

Parang had reacted much more strongly than he had expected.

#

“Hmm….”

She had only intended to play a little prank, but the reaction was intense.

Did Parang really think she was seriously planning to dive?

It was absurd. Who in their right mind would watch her broadcast and decide to go diving?

‘Then again, she might think that….’

Parang might genuinely believe she was a crazy hunter planning to dive right now.

From Vertea’s perspective, that’s how Parang seemed.

She often appeared to be quite sharp, but she also had moments where she stumbled over strange points.

“…For those reasons, you shouldn’t dive. Understand? It’s really dangerous. If you must, only dive at the surface layer.”

Was she explaining all this time?

Vertea quickly organized her thoughts and smiled confidently.

Then she typed rapidly.

─I’m an S-rank, though?

Teasing a close friend was indeed the most fun in the world.

She could just buy her some Lotus biscuits later.

Vertea grinned widely.

#

─I’m an S-rank, though?

At that message, Parang’s previously calm expression slightly cracked.

“Even if you’re S-rank, it can still be dangerous. Don’t do it.”

─But I’m really strong. I’ve even caught a monster fish. That 8-meter-long shark.

Well, it wasn’t exactly a lie.

“That’s not a monster fish; it’s just a mutant shark.”

─Isn’t it roughly the same thing?

Her skill in subtly provoking Parang was top-notch.

Vertea had known Parang for several years now. She knew exactly how to push her buttons.

“Ugh! It’s different! Really!”

In the end, Parang crumbled under Vertea’s pinpoint attacks.

She stomped her feet in place. It was a habit that came out when she felt frustrated and overwhelmed.

And the viewers who watched the whole process felt something.

‘No matter how you look at it, it’s just trolling.’

That’s right. Unlike Yu Parang, who only watched [Surface Diving Vlogs], the viewers were veterans who had thoroughly explored the depths of internet broadcasts.

They could instantly tell whether someone was trolling or genuinely new.

But they never advised Parang about it. United in their thoughts.

‘Isn’t this a chance to tease the host?’

The Parang they saw on the broadcast was flawless.

A cool beauty who nonchalantly took down enormous monsters—that was Parang’s usual image.

What would happen if her emotions exploded?

They were too curious to resist.

“Seriously, don’t dive!”

Moreover, Parang was now showing some clumsy sides. The viewers felt something burning inside them.

As a result, the chat also united in teasing Parang.

─But why can’t we dive?

─It seems doable.

─Hmm, is it really that bad?

─I’m watching this underwater right now, and there’s no problem.

“Ugh, argh…!!!”

Parang’s face turned red.

Parang was red, and with another red Parang, together they made purple!

Unfortunately, Parang didn’t know any spells, so that was the end of it.

Anyway, Parang’s face turned red.

“I’m telling you, diving is really dangerous! You’ve been watching the broadcast, right? So why do you keep saying you’ll go underwater?”

─Honestly, it seems doable.

─Actually, I went diving yesterday.

“No, you promised last time that you wouldn’t dive again! I remember your username!”

That was a lie.

Parang’s insides, slick with oil, were set ablaze by that chat.

“No, if I say don’t do it, don’t do it!! Why won’t you listen to me!!”

Stomping her feet with a >o< expression on her bright red face, Parang even spoke informally, which was unlike her.

It was quite cute.

So, the viewers who had thought about stopping decided to continue.

It took Parang quite a while to regain her composure.

She had to threaten, ‘If you keep this up, I’ll ban you all!’

#

Parang swore to the heavens that she only intended to search the second car.

As quickly as possible, she would sweep through every corner, avoiding catching any monsters if possible.

This wasn’t just for this broadcast.

Whenever she had to go down to the East Sea Hive, she usually avoided the second car.

She would only occasionally clean it by sending a Kraken through the windows to sweep it.

If anyone asked why the great Yu Parang acted so cowardly, she could confidently answer.

‘Because I really don’t want to go in there.’

It was because of the dominant species in the second car. Parang hated having to see them. They were horrifying and utterly disgusting.

One might ask how someone who could catch Gorgons could find anything disgusting.

But the creatures in the second car were fundamentally different from Gorgons.

While a Gorgon was individually grotesque, these creatures were vaguely disgusting like Makula but did things that were utterly revolting.

The dominant species of the second car, Sakis.

A mutated species of whale louse.

Many people think whale lice only parasitize whales, but in reality, they infest almost any fish species, except freshwater fish.

When they mutate into Sakis, they can parasitize any species indiscriminately.

Of course, exceptions like Kraken exist.

Unfortunately, there were no Kraken-level monsters in the second car of the ‘train.’

So, it meant that parasites had taken over an entire car.

Hearing this, the viewers began to sense something was wrong.

‘Parasite’ had always been a symbol of disgust.

Viewers began to leave in droves.

The remaining viewers were shouting, ‘Can’t we call it a draw?’

─Teacher, how about we resolve this peacefully?

─Yeah, we were wrong earlier.

─But what can we do, the host is cute.

─You started it!!

The flow seemed a bit strange, but Parang understood their intentions.

What was disgusting to her was almost traumatic for them.

Even if she wanted to prevent diving, she believed it shouldn’t interfere with people’s daily lives.

A broadcast meant for public good shouldn’t do that.

And personally, Parang didn’t want to see that scene either.

Parang had teased her viewers many times, so she decided to let it slide this once.

She wasn’t being played. Absolutely not.

And then she remembered the statistics she saw during her meeting with Silo, showing that the number of diving hunters was exponentially decreasing.

The ones who had been teasing her earlier had no intention of diving.

Why didn’t she realize this earlier? Parang’s face heated up again.

But she quickly felt relieved, thinking, ‘At least no one is actually diving.’

“Alright. I’ll let it slide this time.”

─Thank you, thank you, thank you.

The fact is, the Yu Parang Endurance Squad is steadfast.

─Wow, haha.

─Rock.

─Extreme.

─Extreme.

“But I still have to show you.”

After all, she needed to conduct the search.

─Crazy woman, crazy woman, crazy woman.

─The fact is, the Yu Parang Endurance Squad is all dead.

─Haha.

─Rock.

─Me.

─Me.

“I’ll tone it down a bit. You should be able to watch comfortably.”

However, Parang already had something in mind.

─We worship you, we worship you, we worship you.

─The fact is, the Yu Parang Endurance Squad is back.

─Wow, haha.

─Rock.

─Extreme.

─Extreme.

Indeed, Parang could control the emotions of her viewers.
