Chapter 24 - The Person Who Wouldn't Want to Take Bath
"Yes! It's time for the Ukankitsu and Mahjong collaboration tonight. Let's get started with a greeting from Karen!"
Two days after Valentine's Day.
Iori and Asumi were hosting a mahjong collaboration with two guests, complete with punishment games.
"Good evening! I'm Karen Azrael, the reaper angel here to take your life heart! Today, I'm going to teach everyone here the joys of alcohol and cigarettes by winning!"
"You're the weakest at mahjong, so what are you talking about? Today's stream is all about making you take a bath. And don't recommend that stuff to minors! Alright, next."
"Hello! This is Kokonoe Reina. We're streaming from Karen's house with three of us today. Tonight, I'm going for a yaku-man!"
As Asumi prompted, the two guests greeted everyone.
Karen Azrael was a tall beauty in a black robe with long blonde hair, wielding a large scythe. With her ample body, provocative eyes, and revealing outfit, she gave off an alluring vibe, but in reality, she was known as a hopeless person who indulged in smoking, drinking, and gambling.
Because of that, her fellow streamers and listeners from Progress referred to her as "Trass-rael." (TLN: Azrael → Kuzurael)
She's basically a full-fledged loser who doesn't bathe much. Today's mahjong collaboration was set up as a punishment game to get her to bathe.
To ensure the listeners could see everyone's hands, they were using mahjong apps, streaming from each of their PoV except for Iori's.
"By the way, Hyouka, your Valentine's outfit is cute!"
"Thank you! I got the best outfit from Mama."
"Oh, speaking of Valentine's, did you give anyone chocolate?"
"Umm..."
"Now that's interesting! Come on, little lady, tell this uncle who you gave it to?"
As they chatted before the match, the conversation shifted to Hyouka's new outfit and Valentine's Day. When the topic of chocolate came up, she hesitated slightly, and Karen and Reina quickly picked up on it.
[Wait, did you give someone chocolate, Ukamaru?] [I'm curious!] [It must be to Mama, right?] [Ukamaru is at that age too, after all!] [How lucky, I want Ukamaru's chocolate too!] [I'm curious!] [Hyouka gave us something, right?] [Such youth!]
Viewers began to react with mixed emotions. Meanwhile, Asumi silently wondered what to do, but somehow that vibe reached Iori.
"I got some. It went through the agency, though."
"Oh! So you really did give it to your Mama. That's sweet!"
"Was it homemade?"
"Nope, it was from a super high-end brand. It was really delicious."
"I'm jealous! I want some too, even if it's not homemade."
"Chocolate pairs great with wine, so I want some too."
"A-hahaha... I'll give both of you some next year."
In reality, Asumi had directly given chocolate to Iori yesterday, but even though she wasn't selling herself as an idol, she still had to consider her hardcore fans.
As Iori helped steer the conversation away from that "risky" question, he managed to turn it into a "Ukankitsu Tee~ Tee~!" situation. Emphasizing that it wasn't a serious or homemade gift should keep things smooth.
That way, Asumi sent a private message to Iori saying, "Thank you."
"Hey, Hyouka, Reina. How's the situation in that room?"
"It stinks. It's messy in there. I just want to go home already."
"No way. That's terrible."
"Seriously, if this keeps up, it's going to ruin the image of PROGRESS. Shouldn't we fire her quickly?"
"I'm tight with the boss, you know. I won't get fired. And I don't want to take a bath either."
"Why not just rename her to Trass-rael?"
[Trass-rael lol] [Trass-rael KUSA] [Trass-rael stinks] [Ukamaru, do your best] [Trass-rael lol] [Feel sorry for the two] [#KarenGoTakeABath] [Noe-chan...] [Trass-rael lol]
Asumi and Reina were commentating on Karen and her messy room with a hint of disgust, but Karen was completely unfazed.
While the viewers were either concerned for the two in such a pitiful situation or enjoying the jabs at Karen.
"――――So, if you come in last, you'll have to face a punishment game from the top. It's a simple rule. Now, let's get started."
Amidst chit-chat and jokes, Asumi was explaining the game rules, and it was already chaos.
Despite the chaotic stream, Asumi had already gathered twenty thousand viewers.
"Yeeeeeah! My scythe is buzzing! Kachsh!"
"Stop with the kachsh! Don't drink in front of minors. And put away the scythe."
"Well, we have Yoyo-san supervise us here."
"Dirty, stinky, alcohol trash... I can't take it anymore."
Asumi was leading the stream, Iori was doing the comedic commentary, Reina was narrating, and Karen was causing chaos.
By the way, since Karen was drinking, Yoyo was in the background to supervise.
So, it looked like a crazy collaboration stream, but everyone was managing to keep some balance as the stream began.
"Excuse me, Ron. Tan'Yao, Dora-dora, Aka(Red). Karen-san, give me some."
"Ugh."
"Didn't you hear? Karen Trass-rael, it's Ron."
"Guh."
"Riichi, Ippatsu, Chanta, Ura-dora 3. Oyappane, Inpachi please!" (TLN: Inpachi is a mahjong term that refers to 18,000 points, also known as the parent's jumping man (Oyapane). If the parent wins a jumping man, the score will be 18,000 points. Inpachi is one of the important hands in mahjong, and players often aim for this hand in their tactics. [src])
As the game began, it was Reina who dominated the table.
"Eek."
"Reina has incredible luck, you know."
"Uwaaa. I don't have any points leeeeft!"
[This is Zero-sama's incredible luck] [Koko-sama's luck is here] [This is a direct trip to the bath] [Taking points like it's breathing] [Too strong lol] [Hurry up and take a bath] [Karen Bath-rael is decided]
Reina kept winning, and she displayed extraordinary luck in gacha and game matches.
Her fans revered her as "Zero-sama" and "Koko-sama."
There was even a "Kokonoe Cult" for her, as she was famous for pulling miracles.
Despite not being particularly strong at Mahjong, she was once again showcasing her luck today, stealing points not just from Karen but also from Iori and the others.
"From here, from here! I'm going to get a Yaku-man! Kachsh!"
"Stop drinking! Reina, take her to the bath right away. There's no way she can win now. That angel can't even get Riichi."
"Okay, let's go take a bath."
"No! If I can get a Yakuman, I'll win! Don't underestimate me, you virgins!"
"Please be careful with your words, okay? You might get disqualified from tournaments."
"I'm sorry."
Even when her points were so low she couldn't even Riichi, Karen was still causing a ruckus.
While Iori and Reina struggled with her, Asumi, being a popular streamer with a massive subscriber count and experience running tournaments, skillfully used her authority to silence Karen.
"Alright, I can do this! Kan!"
"You don't need to take that Rinsan. It's Chankan!"
"Noooooo!"
In the end, Karen was thoroughly toyed with by Reina, and it was decided as a punishment that she would have to take a bath.
