◈ Saving a Famous Streamer in the Hidden Dungeon
Chapter 7: That time when I got attacked because Kokko forgot to end the stream.
“And with that said, I have learned new ways to defeat monsters in the hidden dungeon from Kazuki-kun! Everyone, if a time comes and you enter the hidden dungeon to fight, be careful of the Goblin's Insta Kill skill! Just poison them! Now then, that's it for today, everyone! See you next time!”

[Goodwork Goodwork]
[That was a really good job.]
[888888]
[Ah]
[Please buy Kazuki-kun a delicious potion.] (Miracle Chat: 13$)
[That dude is acting conceited, it’s annoying.]
[Kazuki already has both fans and antis, it’s hella funny.]
——
“Good work Kazuki-kun! Thanks for today! I really gained a lot from this!”
——{Comment}——
[Huh?]
[They’re still on it.]
[You forgot to end the stream.]
[Heeey! Kokkooo!]
[She ain’t noticed it.]
[Kokko, you forgot to end the stream.]
——
“Hmm!? Don’t tell me this is…! An EX potion!? What the heck’s up with it! The effects are unreal!”
——{Comment}——
[Lmao]
[Lmao]
[ROFL]
[That’s a cute reaction.]
[Ah, I suddenly want to drink a potion.]
[This is good advertisement.]
[They’re acting as if they forgot to end the stream to advertise the EX potion for sure.]
——
“Still, I feel bad about this. I can't just accept something this expensive so casually. I'll definitely return the favor someday.”
——{Comment}——
[He’s a good dude.]
[This would even make an etiquette instructor smile.]
[He’s polite even when he’s young, you guys should learn from him.]
[Nah, ain’t he just trying to make plans to see Kokko again?]
——
“Ahaha, you don’t need to really—! That’s the one I got from my sponsors after all! If anything, please take more!”
——{Comment}——
[That’s no good, Kokko.]
[A future where Kokko makes the sponsors mad…]
[The sponsors are likely grateful for capturing Kazuki's impressive drinking scene.]
[Kokko, please notice it already!] (Miracle Chat: 2$)
——
“Ah, what are you planning to do from here on? Are you planning to continue your exploration, Kazuki-kun?”
“Nah… I’ll call it quits for today. Truth is I'm running low on items. I was planning to go shopping. Well, I might do some light exploring after that.
“T-Then…um, if you’d like, could we go shopping together…?”
——{Comment}——
[Ha?]
[Ha?]
[Hmm?]
[Kokko?]
[Oi stop messing around seriously, Kokko what the hell are you saying? This is a prank. You really like messing with us viewers you bitch!]
[No good. She’s making a cunning face.]
[Kokko’s hitting on him lmao]
[Don’t get excited in the dungeon now.]
[There’s no way Kokko.]
[Right here, misconduct with a minor. It’s a crime y’know.]
[Getting a boyfriend right in front of the viewers? What a terrible streamer.]
——
“…eh, I’d rather not.”
——{Comment}——
[Ahahahahaha]
[Lmfaooooo]
[(Sad News) Kokko got rejected lololol]
[I t ' s g e t t i n g l i v e l y n o w .]
[Kokko really got rejecteeeeeed KEKW]
[Kazuki, it's impressive how well you know your place.]
[Who do you think you are, rejecting Koko like that? I'll kill you!]
[Don't you dare collaborate again, you anti who can't appreciate Koko's charm!]
[Well done.]
[What’s wrong? Wanna have a talk?]
[Cry on my chest kekw]
[Kokko looks teary-eyed]

“…eh, I’d rather not.”
I cut off Kokko’s proposal instantly. Oh god. I accidentally said what I was thinking out loud. Actually, no. There's no reason to dislike it. Being able to go out with Susukino irl as a fan would be a dream come true.
But y’know, it’s just not good…
This isn’t it… To me…!
I don't have any casual clothes suitable for going out with Koko!!! Shopping with Kokko?? I really want to go! But more importantly, I don't want to be judged for having tacky casual clothes!
“I-I see! Sorry, I was being too overfamiliar when we aren’t even friends yet…”
“No! That’s not what I meant! Really, it's not like I'm buying anything extravagant, and I was planning to just quickly get it done nearby... It feels kind of unfair to drag you along!”
I hastily tried to cover up for her apparent disappointment. Yeah, that's right. I've inadvertently turned down her kind gesture. I’m really sorry!
...I’ll go after I get some advice on clothes from my classmate!
“Yep, I got evaded. Well, it’s fine anyways. On that note, Where do you usually get your dungeon items from? I usually buy them from an online store, do you perhaps have a secret spot that you buy them from?”
“A secret spot… Well, I usually pick up supplies from the home center on my way back from school. I can't help but check out the discounted items that are left over.”
“Heh. I wanna do something like that too—! Now then, let’s go shopping together when we become more familiar with each other!”
“Well, sooner or later… Haha…”
—Yeah, as if. After finishing that exchange, I returned to my room and as I said earlier, rode my bike to the home center…
“Yamamoto Kazuki… I was waiting for you…! Hihihi! You piece of trash who tricked Susukino Kokko…!”
For some reason, a chubby man near the entrance said something like that to me, so I felt uneasy and kept my distance…
And at this timing, I suddenly got a call from Kokko.
“Ka-Ka-Ka-Kazuki-kun—! What should I do? It seems like I forgot to end the stream from earlier, a-a-and apparently people are saying you rejected me live—!? Eh!? That’s not it, right!? You didn’t reject me, right!? You just promised me to meet up at a later date, no!?”
“Ah… yeah. I see. I understand what’s happening now.”
“Wha? What-? What do you mean?”
“Nah, it’s nothing. The listeners are just teasing, so don't worry about it. Now then, I'm a tiny bit busy right now so bye-bye.’
Kokko seemed like she had more to say, but dealing with the suspicious person in front of me was the top priority at the moment, so I do hope she'll forgive me for brushing her off a bit.
Now then… Judging off Kokko’s talk, this dude most likely listened to our talk after the stream’s supposed end, and since I said I was going to the home center closeby, he waited here to ambush me…
Which means he’s most likely not alone. This is the home center near my high school, but there are still several home centers nearby. If I take the train for one or two stops, there are even larger home centers available.
If you expand the range that much... And with all this unnecessary energy... Could they be… No way!
“Are you by any chance part of the ‘Susukino Kokko Fan Club’...?”
The loud laughter in response to my question was already the answer.
“Fuhahahaha! We, the 'Susukino Kokko Fan Club' are against you, Yamamoto Kazuki! We don't like you! Therefore, we've decided to thoroughly crush you!"
Kugh! How unreasonable! The 'Susukino Kokko Fan Club' is an unofficial members-only circle, but it's rumored that some pretty shady people have gathered there!
Being targeted by these people is the worst outcome here!
“We propose a duel to you, Yamamoto Kazuki! If you lose, you’ll never have anything to do with Susukino Kokko again, do you understand!?”
“A duel… You say…!?
What the hell is this…! It turned out to be a pretty damn interesting proposal for some reason!?
