Gender Swap: The Introvert’s Broadcast
Chapter 174

The design was finished, and I thought it would be a good idea to ask the viewers watching the stream for their opinions. While I could decide on my own, asking the viewers and getting their input seemed like a better option. After all, it made sense to pick something that the majority liked.

“Everyone, hold on a second. I just got a message.”

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Who’s that?]

[Who is it?]

[It's the girlfriend, it’s the girlfriend, it’s the girlfriend, it's the girlfriend...]

[It’s definitely not the girlfriend lol]

[Would it even be the girlfriend, you fools?]

[But if it's Dam, I’d believe it if he had one...]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: So when is this game going to end???]

[Wait a bit, Twispook, it'll be another week or so ㅇㅇ]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Damn it]

I quickly covered the screen and transferred the file from my phone to the computer.

“Ah, done.”

After setting everything up, I returned to the stream and spoke again.

“So, you know, a lot of people have been asking for merchandise, and the company made some samples for me.”

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Oh, you’re actually making it lol]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Honestly, I didn’t think you would make it lol]

[You’re really making this?]

[How much is it? That’s the most important part]

[For rice-eaters like you, how much it costs is the most important thing...]

[Other than that, please, I just hope the design isn’t bad]

[Is it 100 signed shirts?]

Curious, the viewers kept asking questions already. Well, it made sense since this was my first time making merchandise.

“Here are the samples, so take a look and vote.”

I displayed all the samples, from number 1 to number 4, on the screen. As soon as the samples appeared, the chat blew up with excitement.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Wow, the design]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Looks nice?]

[Really, the design is pretty good]

[This design seems pretty solid]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Give us the sale link! Give us the sale link! Give us the sale link!]

[No, you idiots, I told you to pick the prettiest sample, not the sale link]

[Where do we buy it from? Where do we buy it from?]

[I want to buy it too]

Some viewers didn’t quite understand, but I gave enough time for everyone to see, then started the voting.

“Just vote for the one you like~”

Of course, even if most votes went to one sample, they could still choose another sample if they wanted. Although, that was highly unlikely.

[Ah, this is really hard, I’m struggling]

[Really debating between 3 and 4]

[Papara-chi donated 10,000 won!]

Go with number 4!!

[For real, for real]

[Number 4 is really pretty]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: No one’s picking number 1?]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Number 1 is really nice too]

[Please, if you’re not going to buy it, don’t vote...]

[Yep, I’ll vote for the ugliest one lol]

After a brief pause, I closed the voting.

“Voting closed.”

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Damn it, I struggled so much and couldn’t vote]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Can we reset?]

[Let’s do a reset, just once]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: I voted for number 2 because it’s my style]

[No clue what’s going to happen now]

[Hwanhee: Number 4 is pretty]

When I felt like the viewers had calmed down, I immediately revealed the voting results.

[ Voting Results ]

1st: 4%

2nd: 12%

3rd: 35%

4th: 49%

“Looks like everyone loves number 4. I think it’s pretty too.”

Even someone like me, who doesn’t really have a good sense of fashion, thought number 4 was the most simple and pretty. So it made sense that other viewers would feel the same way.

I glanced at the chat to see how everyone was reacting.

[Twispookjjikmareupne: F*cking idiots]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: I said pick number 1, pick number 1, pick number 1, pick number 1...]

[Temporarily banned!]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Uh uh, Twispook, take a break]

[Hahahahahahaha]

[As expected, justice has been served, great job]

[Ah, that guy finally got banned lol]

[Good riddance]

[Nope, didn’t pick number 1~~~]

[Seriously, what a public enemy]

[Haha, this reaction is so funny for real]

Though there was a bit of an issue in the chat, it seemed like most people were satisfied. After all, with the voting results like this, I figured there were more happy people than not.

“Alright, now let’s finish the game we were playing.”

With the voting done, it was time to stop talking and just get back to the game.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Let’s go]

[Let’s play]

[I enjoyed the sub content lol]

[It was fun]

[So when’s the release date?]

[When’s it coming out?]

“...I don’t know when it’ll be released. It might be first-come, first-served.”

How am I supposed to know that?

A little time passed, and the RPG game I was playing started to show signs of nearing its end. I had seen most of the scenes I wanted from the class I was playing.

Hmm.

“Right, today I should promote the merch.”

The merch samples I had voted on earlier had arrived at home. Of course, I could sell them without promoting, but showing them off directly to the viewers would make them more excited.

Thinking that, I checked the merch samples.

“Hoodies, t-shirts, zip-up hoodies…”

It seemed they made all sorts of styles. They wouldn’t have sent so many samples otherwise.

‘I wonder if all of them will sell.’

I was a little worried about it. My YouTube subscriber count was 830,000. If only 1% of them bought something, I’d sell out, but that’s not very likely.

I wasn’t sure how many of my viewers were truly invested.

“Hmm…”

I thought about it and then went into my soundproof booth, turned on the stream, and started broadcasting.

[The stream has started!]

Of course, I wrote the stream title honestly.

[Merch samples are here (buy them, please)]

There was no point in pretending like I didn’t care about the money; the viewers wouldn’t buy that. I turned on the stream and, a little while later, viewers started pouring in.

[Viewers: 4,326]

It seemed like people were coming in quickly. Maybe because of the first-come, first-served comment I made earlier.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Hey hey]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Just in time for my ban to end]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: You’re streaming, phew]

[Let’s ban him again]

[That guy is really lucky lol]

[Hurry up and sell it, sell it fast]

[These idiots are so eager lol]

[Merch is really important]

I could really feel how excited they were.

‘...It’s not like I’m a 10 million-subscriber YouTuber.’

I wondered why they were so hyped over something like this. It felt a little strange, but it was probably good that they were excited.

“Alright, everyone, hi.”

[Hi hi]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: But the merch samples were made pretty quickly]

[For real]

[Thought the merch would take forever to make]

[Where can I buy them, please let us know]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: By the way]

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Isn’t the game almost over? Good things just keep piling up]

[Why does this guy sound so annoying every time he speaks?]

I greeted the viewers and immediately turned on the camera.

“...Is this okay?”

I checked the stream, and there I was, wearing a hoodie with a small beaver design on it.

“I tried this one on first.”

I hoped the response wouldn’t be bad. This was my first time doing something like this, so I was nervous.

Looking at the chat—

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Damn]

[Ugh]

[So cute, you bastard]

[Temporarily banned!]

[Everyone, stop typing for a second]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Dam’s embarrassed]

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Haven’t seen him like this in a while lol]

[For real, haven’t seen him shy in a while]

[This is Dam lol]

[Old Dam, wow wow wow]

The reactions were explosive. I had no idea what I did to get such a great response, but I figured good reactions were good reactions.

“...I’ll go change into the next one.”

Since the response was good, I hoped they’d like the other merch too. I left the stream running as I went outside to change. But then…

“Um... Oppa?”

I ran into someone I wasn’t expecting.
