Chapter 85

["Pfffft,"]

I heard dozens of laughs, some attempting to hold back their own laughter, and others laughing unrestrainedly.

[TsuNami: "I thought you said you weren't going to be drawing it..?"] She said while giggling.

I had an unreadable expression, albeit with a small twitching of my eyes.

"...No comment."

They began laughing even harder at my expense.

[Poodlefluff: "Hey Charlie, aren't you going to be wearing a Maid Costume next stream?"]

[Yvettel: "Yeah, when's that happening?"]

[wipL: "I definitely want to see that…"]

My eye twitched more violently as my mouth began smiling stiffly.

"...Ah, well… I haven't shared the poll with my stream yet…"

[bzoomster: "Are you trying to escape from it, Charlie?"]

One of the shy Valorant pros found the ice breaking and spoke up as well,

[boz0e: "You know, we can help you post the poll…"]

[Rykun: "Yeah… how about we post the poll for you?"]

[Redde: "Didn't Felix also say he'd sponsor your Maid Costume?"]

[LoafofBread: "You're getting a FREE Maid Costume, the only price you need to pay is to wear it."]

I laid my head down on my desk with a thud.

"...I don't know what you guys are talking about…"

Of course, I wasn't bothered, but it was to keep the stream entertaining. The others knew this as well.

The drawings of the rest started coming in. The guessers all guessed something about me in a maid costume and the drawings did not fail at all.

I had an inkling suspicion that some shared the message secretly to draw this because I highly doubt they recognized my face from a stickman drawing.

"...How can you even guess 'Charlie in a Maid Costume' when it is a stick man drawing..?" My face was perplexed and very disturbed.

Said stickmen artists did nothing to lower my suspicion and instead began laughing even harder.

I took my attention away from the game and read my chat and donations.

As usual, chat was very spammy and reading was almost very impossible. As for my chat moderators, I think I even caught one of them joining in the spamming.

[Chat:

CHARLIE IN A MAID COSTUMECHARLIE IN A MAID COSTUMECHARLIE IN A MAID COSTUMECHARLIE IN A]

It was just a sea of spam and I could do nothing but just watch the chaos.

…

I had just finished the stream and showed the little snippet of the song I had been working on for the past month. The response was very good in the stream and had been clipped on Twitter by one of the people we had been playing with.

I stretched my arms that had been tight after a long stream. Everything had ended on a great note and we had reached multiple peaks in viewers.

Well, since a major project was finally finished, I could allow myself some time to finally relax…

There were not many urgent things right now, and I wanted to enjoy some of my free time before things began getting hectic again… Since Summer was approaching, I did not doubt that the hectic schedule would begin very soon…

My door was opened abruptly and Charlotte happily rushed into my arms.

My arms naturally laced around her and I began patting her back.

"Had a good day?" I asked with a smile.

"Yep! I sold some pictures of you sleeping and got some pretty good m—" My cheek began twitching and I pinched her ear tightly. All warm feelings having faded away immediately at her familiar rascal-like behavior.

"What do you mean you sold pictures of me sleeping?"

She twisted under the painful grip and began slapping my hands away.

"Ah ah, I'm joking. Joking. It's just a joke."

"Ah? Why do I have a feeling it's not a joke?" My other hand began pinching her cheek. "What else have you done?"

She looked up at my tearfully, "It was just a joke. A joke, a joke." She slapped my hands away.

I let her go after her pitiful display. Her cheek was slightly red and her ear had turned from white to crimson.

"Big fat older brother. I'm angry at you now."

I waved her off, hiding a smile behind my face.

"Quickly tell me what's going on. I'm a busy man with a tight schedule."

"So busy that you can't talk to your sister?"

"Yes, I cannot waste my time for such an unproductive activity."

"Ohh, okay okay. Sorry for wasting your Esteemed's precious time," she began repeatedly bowing 90 degrees from her waist.

I laughed and looked at her eyes that twinkled with amusement as well.

"So… mind explaining yourself on how you sold pictures of me sleeping?"

She raised her arms up, wanting her innocence clarified.

"I repeat, that was a joke. Anyway, let's go out on a date with Natsumi."

I raised my eyebrows, "Let's?"

She patted my head, my fluffy hair fluttering around.

"Yes, yes. Come on, I'm bored. Let's go watch a movie or something… or how about a series? We were watching some interesting kdramas last time."

Before I could say anything else, she reached for my phone, unlocking it and calling Natsumi's contact.

I was a little embarrassed to see the call being picked up that quickly.

"...Haaa~? How come you weren't answering my calls earlier?

["Hi Ch—… Charlotte?"]

"Ah? You answered so quickly?" Charlotte stared at her phone with a smile, irritation tainting the smile.

["...Hi Charlotte!"]

She sighed as her cheek twitched. "Natsumi. Come over, let's continue the kdrama we were watching."

["...Huh? Ah… okay, okay. You didn't watch anything after we left off, right?"]

"I didn't, so come quickly. I've been dying to know what happens after that cliffhanger. I'll tell my butler to go pick you up."

"Since when do we have a butler?" I asked, fully knowing that she was referring to me.

She waved her hand at me and stared at the phone.

"Go on, Butler Charlie. Go pick her up."

I squinted my eyes at her and messed her hair up before leaving to pick Natsumi up.
