Calleum Artori

Mission and Kamado. (SITO - 47)

I didn't accept the mission instantly. Whether I liked it or not, I was "The Streamer." So, I waited for the stream chat to fill up, as there were only about a hundred people at the moment.

I don't think it'll take long for most viewers to arrive, as I had warned yesterday that I would accept a mission early and go to another world.

I'll wait for about an hour, then, after that, tough luck for those who don't show up.

While I waited, I pulled up a chair and lay down, enjoyin...

Interlude 3. (SITO - 46.5)

POV: Anthony Edward Stark [When received Devas' letter].

Multiverse… My world was like a comic book…

Honestly, I didn't know what to think. What should I do now? Have an existential crisis or a panic attack? Maybe both?

Or just pat myself on the back, since I was famous throughout the multiverse?

I'll go with the pat on the back… Maybe the panic attack too, but for now, I had letters to read.

DS had sent me a box with four letters. Taking the first one, as ...

Finishing up most things and the mission. (SITO - 46)

POV: Devas Asura

Rin had a good idea, but seeing it now, the outcome was kind of obvious. But still, a good idea.

What would happen if I threw an "Artificial Sapphire" or a mana stone into the matrix?

Absolutely nothing.

The matrix didn't consume the mana, and the impurities that already existed weren't purified because it didn't do that.

It just fused everything into a larger "Artificial Sapphire" with impurities from others.

More mana, more dirt. It was u...

Ignorance is bliss. (SITO - 45)

POV: Helena Oakwood.

"Create for free, don't even think about charging anything for it!"

I had just returned from Dylan's room, where my son had asked me about the price, how much I would charge to create a sapphire condenser matrix for his friend.

I said it would depend on the size, of course. It wasn't cheap or easy to make that matrix, as I used a special ink made of expensive materials and a special brush.

Dylan had said he would ask Devas about the size and then t...

Shopping, dye, and studies. (SITO - 44)

POV: Devas Asura.

It's been a few hours since I woke up; right now, I'm at the "market," or rather, the commercial part of the kingdom.

"I still don't understand why you don't want to use materials from home. If it's something about money, forget it. I won't charge anything," Dylan commented, his voice coming from the small mirror hanging from my earring...

... Yes, I put on an earring, on the left ear to be precise.

I considered the right ear, as it's the dominant sid...

After. (SITO - 43)

POV: Devas Asura.

I'd like to say that the first thing I did upon waking up was to quickly get up, alert and ready for battle, but it wasn't.

The first thing I did when I woke up was sigh in relief, my body no longer aching, my bones no longer feeling like overheated metal, my blood no longer resembling magma.

I must have stayed there for a few minutes, with my eyes closed, breathing slowly, savoring the moment, savoring that my body didn't hurt like hell.

Seriously......

Village Jille (5) (Final). (SITO - 42)

POV: Anthony Edward Stark.

It was an ordinary morning. I had woken up early, as usual. After all, DS, that crazy guy, woke up at four in the morning and always started the stream at that hour.

I couldn't lose to a kid half my age. After all, I had my pride.

I even went back to working out. I couldn't afford to be out of shape, not now that I knew the world was much more dangerous than I expected.

Keeping my body in shape was just the first step, along with technology a...

Village Jille (5) (Part 1). (SITO - 41)

I'd like to say I stood there because I was confident, maybe showing off a bit, but that would be a lie.

I stayed put not because I wanted to, but because I had to, due to a variety of factors, with my limitation being the main one.

The inventory cost nothing, no mana, energy, vitality—nothing, but using it required concentration.

My evolution, so to speak, also involved my mind, my brain. My thoughts had quickened, remembering things was easier, thinking came more natural...

Village Jille (4). (SITO - 40)

At the moment I heard the scream, I felt my muscles tense, and my heart began to beat faster.

It wasn't a conscious reaction, but rather my body responding to the information I had about that phrase, the information I knew would follow.

My eyes unconsciously went to the Minimap, where I knew the supposed army was. What I saw was not a good sign. In the time I wasn't looking, the number of enemies had grown significantly.

Looking over, at the red dots, I would guess about sev...

Village Jille (3). (SITO - 39)

And everything gets complicated once again...

I sighed as my thoughts raced.

Why would goblins pretend to be a foolish race in the eyes of everyone? What would they gain from it? To be underestimated and hunted as monsters?

Unless...

A thought crossed my mind. I quickly pulled up the stream messages, a specific part, actually.

[Description: A matrix of Mystical Symbols created by a genius of the goblin race on orders from their king, seeking revenge against Terra...

Village Jille (2). (SITO - 38)

I took advantage of the fact that I was "just" pushing the car and pulled up the upgrades menu. I had a feeling things were going to get ugly later on, so I'll use as much help as I can get, even if it means spending my SP.

-//-

[Live Map LV4: 50,000 SP]

I had spent over five hundred thousand SP last week. Some of that SP went into buying things for the stream, mostly camera angles, so I wouldn't have t...

Village Jille (1). (SITO - 37)

"Hey, Dylan, can I ask you something?"

The car journey, even though it was faster compared to walking, would still take about an hour, maybe two, since, well, Terraria didn't have paved roads, and the few dirt roads they had were complete and utter crap.

I also had to be careful while driving; the Humvee might be an excellent car for these dirt roads, but it didn't fully compensate for my inexperience.

There was a huge difference between driving on paved roads and driving on...

First group companion. (SITO - 36)

POV: Dylan Oakwood "Rookie Guide"

I sat at one of the tables in the main hall of the Guild, waiting for "The Golem" to return, or as I now knew him, Devas.

"The Golem, can't disagree with that nickname, especially seeing him in person," I murmured as I watched the man present proof of his mission to one of the Guild attendants and a little girl. The proof was the lifeless bodies of a complete Direwolf pack.

I shuddered slightly as I saw the corpses appear one by one, reachin...

Organization of the stream and Guild missions. (SITO - 35)

It had been almost two weeks since my stream had become more popular. A lot of things happened during that week, but the main one was me getting more involved with Terraria and the Guild, completing more missions.

At this moment, I was finishing up a mission for the Guild. It wasn't anything difficult, just an extermination and reward mission. This time, the target wasn't slimes but wolves.

Interestingly, it didn't occur to me, but yes, there are "normal" animals in Terraria, or a...

New viewers and update. (SITO - 34)

It wasn't really hard to find the forge. Even though I hadn't been out for three months, the memory was still fresh in my mind. After all, it was one of the first places I went when I arrived in the kingdom.

After marking the shop on the map, I entered and had a brief chat with Markus, who was at the reception.

A quick conversation later, I had found out that yes, three months had passed. So much so that Markus asked if I was okay, as when one of his clients disappears for so long...

Rewards and Pylon. (SITO - 33)

The first thing I "felt" when I appeared in Terraria was the change in the environment; in this case, the mana that existed in the surroundings.

I thought it would be an unpleasant sensation, but no, it was exactly the opposite. It felt like I was "lighter," more "free," so to speak. It was as if I were now breathing correctly, and before, in HOTD, I was on top of a mountain; the air was more "rarefied," so to speak.

I hadn't felt this difference the first time I went to HOTD, pro...

Journey. (SITO - 32)

-//- 2 months and 2 days until the return to Terraria. -//-

Four days had passed since I separated from the group. I won't lie, it was kind of lonely without company, but nothing I couldn't adapt to. Of course, I wasn't really alone either.

[GeniusBillionairePlayboy]: This is the second bank you've raided! Are you trying to match my wealth by any chance? DREAM ON! (Iron Man throwing money emote).

[RedHuntressLive]: Why though? I don't think Terraria has the same currency as ...

Farewell. (SITO - 31)

After the little episode of Saya imitating a koala and clinging to my back, I put the tsundere down and finished the conversation with her father, who was now looking at me as if he wanted to kill me.

Ending the conversation, I came to the conclusion that it wouldn't hurt to help them for a little longer, and it wouldn't disrupt my plans. In the end, I ended up staying a bit longer while killing zombies on the way to the port and escorting the trucks.

Of course, the thought crosse...

Next morning. (SITO - 30)

I ran my hand through Saya's hair gently as she drifted off to sleep. Glancing to the side, I could see a smile on her face as she embraced me.

"I thought racial features weren't that important, but apparently they are," I mused to myself.

Even though her racial features were C-, they really meant something. Despite Saya being a virgin, she had stayed with me for over four hours before going to sleep.

I retrieved my phone from my inventory and saw that it was eight in the mo...

Interlude 2. (SITO - 29.5)

Pov: Fukasaku "Pa".

"Say, Pa," my wife, Shima, or as we currently called each other in our old age, Ma, asked. "Aren't you going to tell me what that strange scroll you and Jiraiya-chan started carrying is?" She leaned in, sitting next to me as we watched Jiraiya-chan train our new recruit, Minato-chan.

I picked up one of the fried larvae with the tongue that Ma had made. After swallowing, I replied.

"Not yet. But soon, I think Jiraiya-chan and I have gathered enough."

Explanations and Saya. (SITO - 29)

The conversation I had with Saya's parents was a quick affair. It seems like both of them realized that being on the road for more than nine hours was tiring and didn't hold our group for too long.

The brief conversation was just them explaining what was happening and summarizing some plans they had. Based on the estimates they gave me, in less than three days, they should have everything ready to start moving the property to the island, and they hoped everything would be finished in tw...

Thoughts. (SITO - 28)

Some minutes had passed since my discovery about my status and the subsequent revelation of my title. In the meantime, Saya's father also turned on the radio with news that I needed to share with the group. All of this together left me still somewhat dazed as I sat at the table with everyone.

"Pass me the salt, please, Hirano-kun."

"Of course, Kiriko-san."

I was basically on autopilot, vaguely paying attention to the conversations around me. "The Streamer," that was the titl...

Family and status. (SITO - 27)

"Have you finished talking with your friend? I was a bit worried for a moment, but Hirano-kun said it was better to leave you two alone."

Matsushima said relieved as she handed me back the radio. It seems Kohta acted quickly and got them out of there before they saw too much. He probably came up with some excuse when I drew my sword, maybe said they saw it wrong or something.

We were sitting next to the Humvee that I pulled out of the inventory without anyone seeing. Well, I was n...

Monster. (SITO - 26)

I sighed as I shook my head. I was at the back of the group that was now following the police officer back to the mall, or, in this case, now that I knew her name, Matsushima.

Can't say I know who she is. If she's part of the show, I didn't recognize her, since I only watched the anime while on Earth. Well, not that it would change much at this point.

I also took the opportunity while the group talked to the cop to step back a bit and put the Humvee in my inventory. No matter how ...

Unusual night and a policewoman. (SITO - 25)

I drove for a few hours while listening to the rest of the group singing along to the songs I played on the radio. I left the playlist on shuffle, so it didn't get too repetitive; I even hummed along to some.

After a while, I stopped the Humvee in case anyone in the group needed to use the bathroom or just stretch their legs. Having Saya in my lap while driving was nice; I could tease and play with the tsundere the whole way, but it also cramped my legs' circulation, which wasn't so gre...

Battle, conversation, and departure. (SITO - 24)

We didn't run straight to the main gate. I didn't know how many zombies there were, so I asked Shizuka to drive diagonally, in a way that if there was a massive horde, I would just shout for everyone to jump in the car to get out of here.

Luckily for us, the gap in the gate was a hole, probably caused by the fall of an excavator or something like that. It was large enough for a big car to pass through, which helped, as the horde outside couldn't get in all at once.

From what I cou...

Thoughts and Bomb. (SITO - 23)

I didn't linger in misery for long; I didn't want to keep the rest of the group waiting, and I also wanted to start the stream. It's curious how I used to view streaming as an obligation, but I was starting to see it as something fun.

Interacting with viewers got me more excited. It was strange at first, but it seemed like I had gotten used to it, adapted to streaming in a way.

Shaking my head, I looked one last time at the face in the mirror and went to take a shower. Nothing too...

Conflicting emotions. (SITO - 22)

The first thing I felt upon waking up wasn't pain, no, oddly enough, it was warmth and a sense of tightness, as if I were in a nest or something like that; it wasn't unpleasant, if I were to say.

Opening my eyes, I found myself under an unfamiliar ceiling. This was starting to feel like some kind of cruel joke at this point. Well, if the softness I felt on my back was any indication, at least I was in a bed and not lying on the grass. Once was enough for me, thank you.

The first t...

Stones in the path. (SITO - 21)

We began the journey with various news, some good, others not so much, and one in particular that made a part of my body turn as blue as a Smurf.

Well, let's start with the bad news. It started raining, which in itself wasn't bad, but it forced us to close the car window and the sunroof, and even with the air conditioning on, it was still hot, well, too hot in a way.

There was also the fact that I didn't know the streets of Japan because, you know, I didn't live here. So, I had to...

Departure, the beginning of the journey. (SITO - 20)

"Alright, help me hold this part now, hold that side while I secure this one. I'll need to use my right hand to weld this piece." Kohta and Takashi quickly moved to the left side while I held the right side and started welding.

It was already the next morning. Yesterday, after dinner, the group split up to sleep. The girls took the main bedroom in the apartment, while the two boys and I slept in the living room. Not on the couch, of course. I retrieved three beds from my inventory and s...
