“Uugh… it’s hot..”

It was Reina.

But why is she sleeping on top of me..

“Sigh.”

I remembered that the previous night, I had dinner with Reina, and as you can see, slept together in my room.

Reina’s sleeping habits were terrible, so I usually didn’t want to sleep with her.

I removed Reina, who was on top of me, and went downstairs to the first floor.

“Are you up~?”

“Yeah.”

When I went downstairs, mom was preparing breakfast and greeted me, while dad was watching TV with his back against the sofa.

“Breakfast is almost ready, so wake up Reina and come down together~”

“Okay. I’ll set the table and wake her up.”

— Clatter. Clatter

“Thank you~ Having only a daughter is nice, hoho”

“Just a while ago you said I wasn’t cute. And now you’re treating Reina like your own daughter.”

“Jealous?”

“Not. really”

“Huhu. Acting all prim and proper~”

While making silly jokes with mom, I woke up Reina and returned to the table together.

Today’s breakfast menu is oh… kimchi stew.

Not only is it one of my soul foods,

“Uugh..”

“Reina looks like an old man.”

Unlike her appearance which made it seem like she would whine about not being able to eat spicy kimchi, Reina was eating it refreshingly like an old man eating rice soup. It was also her soul food.

“Eeh.. I don’t want to hear that from Ara.”

“Same here.”

My parents watched us bickering with eyes that said we were cute, talking to each other.

“Hoho. Whenever I see you two together, you’re like twins~ Right, honey?”

“Haha. That’s right~.”

Dad was expressing agreement with mom’s opinion when mom’s scheme began,

“The atmosphere is so different with one more person at the table… honey, today shall we b..”

“Ah, that’s right, Ara’s mom. Today, uh, that, ah, my high school bestie Hochul contacted me about drinking together today, so I’m sorry I can’t have dinner with Ara~”

“Tsk-“

Dad didn’t fall for mom’s scheme.

Reina and I laughed as we saw dad sweating, and I felt mom continuously touching dad’s shin with her foot under the table, trying to seduce him.

‘Hmm. Maybe because mom and dad don’t have to struggle anymore. Hut, they’re young. Yeah.’

Perhaps because the difficult times of the past had disappeared, and the family had enough money to use for a lifetime and more, the damaged skin and wrinkles that seemed to prove their difficult life before I went to the otherworld had disappeared without a trace, and reality was filled with parents so young that if you asked a stranger on the street, they might mistake them for being in their 20s, which made me feel good.

It’s also partly thanks to the blood massages I learned in the martial arts world, using a bit of inner energy.

Unlike the otherworld where inner energy and mana can be accumulated through breathing, on Earth, it’s impossible to replenish them, so they’re not infinite and should be used sparingly, but I didn’t mind using them for the people around me rather than for myself.

Plus, I have enough stored to use lavishly and still have plenty left, yeah. {By blackmailing the goddess and bringing Kalkal (mana storage, inner energy storage) separately}

Hut. Anyway, if there’s a positive effect to their becoming younger, there’s also a side effect.

That is,

Perhaps because their bodies are not just healthy but overflowing with energy, mom’s attempts to seduce dad are increasing day by day. Might have a sibling soon…?

Father. Since father said I did nothing wrong.. this girl knows nothing about it.

“Kya! A sibling who looks like Ara would be cute~ Right, Ara?”

“A sibling. Yeah. I’d like to see that.”

Whether our encouragement reached mom, she didn’t give up.

“Since the kids are also saying so, right? Ara’s dad, let’s try our best…..”

“Not today… ah, why are you pouting again? Our Mrs. Kim~~”

Dad didn’t give in either.

After finishing the harmonious(?) and peaceful(?) breakfast, the time was 9 o’clock. It was a weekend so I didn’t have to go to school, and I was planning to play MOL all day but.

“Ara, you didn’t forget we’re going to the company today, right?!”

Ah. I forgot.

I couldn’t say ‘Sorry. I forgot’ to Reina’s face as she was excited about going to the company with a different feeling than the interview, so.

“…Yeah. I’m. Looking forward to it. Wo.w”

I forcibly raised my tension and.

“….u..yeah”

Reina, who noticed that I was now forcing my tension up (too much), responded while pressing her lips together.

Ah. So you know too. That I find this bothersome..

Maybe because Reina caught me, I rubbed my face with both hands, let out a big sigh, and went to the bathroom to shower in preparation to leave the house.

‘If I shower in cold water for 30 minutes. I won’t catch a cold… right.’

Since this healthy body had never fallen ill, I couldn’t come up with a shabby trick to skip the first meeting, and in the end, I left the house on what should have been a golden weekend.

2:20 PM, VT meeting room space

Ara wasn’t the only one suffering on this golden weekend

“Team leader… it’s a lively and good afternoon..”

After hearing a greeting from Manager Heo Miyeon that reflected the wear and tear of life as an office worker, Department Head and Team Leader Seok Gangcheol

“Haha! Miyeon, good afternoon~”

Unlike Miyeon, he responded with a fluffy expression.

“Eh. Team leader, you seem to be in a good mood today.”

“Yeah… is that kind of mindset how he got promoted to department head so quickly…”

“I don’t really want to learn that;;”

Even those who knew Gangcheol’s usually worn-out expression didn’t know why he was in a good mood, except for Gangcheol himself.

‘Haha!! Not having to see the kids…!!! My wife is at her parents’ house for the weekend, and I’m enjoying the solo life after so long…!!’

Originally, he should have driven there himself and gone to his in-laws’ house, but he told his wife he couldn’t go because of company work.

His wife looked apologetic and told him to hang in there, but.

Hmm~ no. I’m perfect right now. I feel more thrilled than when I secretly bought a capsule without my wife knowing. (She found out and severely scolded me.)

Already in his heart, his favorability towards Ara and Reina, who would be debuting as the first generation from his company, was soaring.

‘I’ll do anything for you! Hahaha!’

Well. If they became famous and the company grew, it would be good for him too, but. He kept such adult circumstances deep inside.

“Everyone, I’m sorry. For calling you on a weekend.”

Kim Yeji appeared with an apologetic greeting

“..It’s fine”

The team members under Seok Gangcheol answered with deflated voices, but

“No! It’s not! When the company calls, we must come! Hahaha!”

Seok Gangcheol answered with a booming voice, receiving disgusted looks from the team members, but he didn’t care.

He was very happy right now. (With his wife away from home.)

“Let’s move to the meeting room now. And the youngest team member, wait on the first floor and guide two very pretty and exotic-looking girls.”

With the CEO’s quick instructions, the management department, except for the youngest member, moved to the meeting room and waited for Reina and Ara, the talents who would lead them to success.

Hah. My weekend… Ah, I want to drop out of school..

If I drop out, every day would be a weekend…

Trudge trudge

Smile smile

Trudge trudge

Smile smile

Everyone’s attention on the street was drawn to the two women walking with completely different vibes, but they didn’t mind.

Adaptation.

They had received such gazes many times before, so they didn’t particularly care or respond.

“Ara.. it’s a good day, why do you lack energy?”

“Must be on my period.”

“Eeh.. Ara, you don’t have menstrual cramps..”

These girls having a conversation that didn’t match their appearance.

“Aah. I’m jealous. I wish I didn’t have menstrual cramps too..”

“I wish I had them right now.”

“That’s deceptive. Boo-“

As they talked about menstrual cramps with different purposes, they suddenly arrived at the company.

“Excuse me…”

When we expressed curiosity at the innocent-looking woman with round glasses approaching us.

“Ah. Hello… Um, are you two… (whisper whisper)”

I thought she was asking for our number.

You’re wondering why a woman would ask for another woman’s number? Well… Let’s look into that later.

Anyway, the woman who stopped me and Reina in front of the company whispered that she was Song Yunji, the youngest member of the management team of the company where we would debut as VTubers, and that she had been ordered by the CEO to guide us to the meeting room.

Thanks to the considerate CEO, we were able to comfortably arrive at the meeting room following Yunji.

-Knock knock

‘Come in.’

“We’re coming in..”

After knocking and hearing the voice telling us to come in, we entered through the door with Yunji in the lead.

— ‘Wow… they’re pretty.’

— ‘They’re VTubers..? Not female streamers?’

— ‘Are they both foreigners?’

Various reactions spread throughout the meeting room space, from statements like “of course they’re pretty” to speculation about whether Reina and I were foreigners, based on our appearance.

“Quiet.”

Before it got too chaotic, the CEO personally silenced the people in the meeting room and briefly introduced us.

“Thank you for coming. Everyone, the person on the left is Miss Reina, and the person on the right is Miss Ara. Foreigners? No, they’re not. They have Korean nationality and are Koreans, and I confirmed during the interview that they speak Korean well. Oh, and interestingly, these two are friends.”

Reina and I stood quietly behind, listening to the introduction being mixed by the CEO on our behalf, and the members who heard the brief introduction welcomed us with applause, without exception.

In return for the people who welcomed us without exception, we conveyed a greeting that meant ‘We’ll work hard~’ and walked to the empty seats in the meeting room, making our legs comfortable, and looked around at the people in the meeting room space.

Looking around, I wondered whether this place was unusual? Or if entertainment companies generally have this structure? The gender ratio was so unbalanced.

All women except for one muscular man who I had also seen during the interview.

‘Khee.. office harem life, I’m envious.’

Truly, any man who has experienced a female-dominated company would imagine various scenarios while the introduction to the subsidiary, which was the reason we were called today, began.

The presentation was given by the department head harem man (married man).

The important points were.

☆ Promotion is strong, support is strong, if there’s anything you want to do, just say it and we’ll make it happen! (Except for cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, laughter).

These three were the core, and there wasn’t much content that could be considered special or distinctive.

Well, it’s the first time for these people, as well as Reina and me, to step into the VTuber market.

Still, their enthusiastic attitude was good to see, and based on that presentation, various topics such as our contract-related matters (not done yet), what we wanted from the company, the concept the company was envisioning, and what concept we wanted were discussed, and the meeting progressed quickly.

The last highlight topic remained, and everyone’s posture changed. (Except for the CEO and Ara)

What to name the VTuber group. Over the last 3 days, this had been done by texting the CEO.

[Double Barrel] (Ara) <─ The CEO asked if I was serious.

[Fire Ice] (Reina) <─ She applied saying it’s like a couple nickname with Ara having white hair and Reina having red hair (don’t know about the couple part, but it only reminds me of keyboard pounding games.)

.

.

.

[Twins Tail]

[Angels]

Various team names submitted by the members in the meeting room were written on the whiteboard.

After each member completed their anonymous vote for the team name they liked, they gathered them and handed them to the CEO.

In a static atmosphere. The CEO slowly announced the results of the vote while holding the papers gathered in front of her.

-Gulp.

Someone swallowing

-Sweat.

Someone sweating

-Lord.

Someone praying

-Blank~

Someone spacing out (me)

The youngest stood by the whiteboard, and the CEO opened her mouth.

“Twins Tail, one vote”

“Kyak!”

“Double Barrel, one vote”

-Blank~

.

.

.

“Twins Tail, one vote”

.

.

.

“Angels, one vote”

.

.

.

“Twins Tail, one vote. With this final vote, Twins Tail has a total of 5 votes, and according to the majority opinion, the group name for this VTuber duo group will be decided as ‘Twins Tail’.”

With Kim Yeji’s words.

“Kyak!! Performance bonus!!”

Someone’s (the youngest’s) cheer and

“Aah… too bad. Hing”

Someone’s (Reina’s) sadness

-Blank

Someone’s (mine) state of no thought and no emotion

The meeting ended with various emotions mixed.

After the meeting ended, we all had dinner together and got to know each other by memorizing each other’s faces and names.

The day after the group name was decided.

Reina and I went to the company with our parents, looked over the contract conditions, and completed the contract.

(Reina’s mom is a lawyer, and there was an incident where she was suspicious because the contract conditions were unbelievably good.)

And now I was wailing.

The weekend had been completely consumed by the meeting and contract matters.

I secretly entered the capsule at dawn without mom knowing, got a smack on my back, and trudged back to bed, ending the most challenging weekend since returning from the otherworld, and went to bed. Zzz
