Gender Swap: The Introvert’s Broadcast
Chapter 191

There are many people in my contacts with great voices, but if I had to pick the one with the best voice, without a doubt, it would be—

"Ah, Ibaek-nim."

• "Ah, are you alright? I heard you hit your head, and the rumors about your pain even reached here." "I felt better after some time."
• "Ah…" "By the way, do you have some time?"

Actually, I didn’t expect much.

Ibaek’s schedule was widely known.

If there were no outside events, it was rumored that he stayed home.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Haha, Ibaek is funny as hell.] [Ibaek's coming? No way.] [But it's been a while, huh.] [It's been a while since it's Ibaek.] [Twispookjjikmareupne: If Ibaek comes, it'll be fun lol.] [For real, it'll be fun.] [Hwanhee: Ibaek is really pretty, though.]

• "Time? I always have time." "Well… then, can you come to Gangwon-do?"
• "Gangwon-do? I can do that."

Oh.

I didn’t expect that to work, but even though I was surprised, I felt good. I quickly moved away from the camera to give him the address.

"Then, come here."

• "Alright."

I hung up the phone, walked back to the camera, and started grilling the meat.

Sizzle—.

The pork belly was sizzling, fat dripping as it cooked to a golden brown.

Maybe because I hadn’t eaten meat in a while, it looked incredibly delicious.

"The meat is cooking well."

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Damn, this looks so good.] [I want a bite, just one bite, just one bite, just one bite, just one bite.] [Why is it only you eating, you bastard.] [Twispookjjikmareupne: Damn.] [What kind of meat is this?] [Looks like pork belly.]

"This is pork belly I got from the local butcher. It's called, uh, 'Bomeok-dwae,' I think."

When I first went to the butcher, I was confused because the meat was labeled 'Bomeok-dwae.'

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Bomeok-dwae, damn lol.] [Writing down what they ate before they die, so cruel..] [🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: But hey, you ate good food before you died, cheers.] [They say a ghost who ate well looks great.] [But what does 'Bomeok-dwae' mean???] [Barley-fed pig.] [This bastard is eating better than me lol.] [Is it really to the point where you feel inferior to a pig?]

I continued grilling the meat, bringing out a few things from the fridge, like kimchi and dipping sauce.

"Hehe, this looks delicious."

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Why do you say it like a pervert lol.] [Can't stop saying 'Bomeok-dwae'...] [It does look delicious though.] [How do you even resist pork belly with kimchi and dipping sauce?] [Twispookjjikmareupne: I'll watch how you eat.] [You not grilling the kimchi?]

Checking the chat, there were a lot of unsolicited food tips.

I mean, if it's a joke, that's fine, but there were quite a few people genuinely offering advice, so I gave them a warning.

"I'm eating this my way, so keep the advice in check."

I may not have eaten a lot of meat, but I've definitely researched how to eat meat properly through videos.

I wanted to make sure I ate it right when I did.

[Twispookjjikmareupne: Got it.] [But it does feel a bit off… Okay, fine.] [These bastards want to keep nagging lol.] [They want to offer advice non-stop, seriously.] [🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: I'm watching you, I’ll give advice on how to make the dipping sauce.] [The sesame oil ratio really matters.] [Let’s see.]

Ignoring the viewers' comments, I started making the dipping sauce.

My personal favorite ratio was just enough sesame oil to slightly dampen the salt, so it wouldn't overpower the taste of the salt but still be incredibly delicious.

Tap tap.

"Perfect."

I showed the perfectly made dipping sauce to the camera.

Then—

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Damn.] [Really well done lol.] [This is the proper dipping sauce.] [Sometimes you go to a barbecue and some idiot dumps sesame oil in, I wanna smack their face with a cold noodle bowl.] [Why a cold noodle bowl?] [Bang!] [Twispookjjikmareupne: Hmm...] [Twispookjjikmareupne: It's a bit off, but alright lol.]

The chat was full of compliments.

There were a few trolls trying to stir up trouble, but I didn’t mind.

After all, most people just like to stir things up for fun on streams.

"Alright then, everyone, open your mouths. I’m feeding you a piece of meat."

Saying that, I took a piece of well-grilled meat and held it up to the camera.

[Ahhhhhhhhhhh] [It's so tasty!] [Twispookjjikmareupne: Looks so tasty, damn.] [Let me have a bite, just one bite, just one bite, just one bite, just one bite, just one bite.] [🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Looks so tasty.]

After some back-and-forth with the viewers, I finished my meal, cleaned up a bit, and sat on the terrace with a view of the river, resting while reading a book.

"I’ll just read a book. It feels wrong to play games now that I’ve come all the way here."

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: What book?] [Leore, let’s go, Leore, let’s go, Leore, let’s go, Leore, let’s go, Leore, let’s go.] [Leore just released a new champion, don’t you wanna play?] [Just one match..] [Twispookjjikmareupne: What the hell is Leore, stop it already.] [Twispookjjikmareupne: Guys, come on.] [Seriously.] [You came to the pension to relax, and you’re asking for Leore? Legendary lol.]

For once, Twispookjjikmareupne made a valid point.

I came here to rest, not to play Leore. If I did that, I’d be a workaholic.

Thinking that, I continued reading my book when suddenly—

[ㅇㅇ has donated 10,000 won!]

• "Then, please play Yeongdo for me, please." [Oh, nice.] [Let’s go, Yeongdo! lol] [Please.] [Twispookjjikmareupne: This might be worth it.] [🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: I think I’m okay with this.] [Let’s go.]

The viewers suddenly started demanding Yeongdo.

It was a little surprising.

Usually, people don’t just ask like that.

"Um, Yeongdo..."

It seemed they wanted a dopamine boost from a video donation since the stream was getting dull.

Normally, I wouldn’t do it, but—

"Okay, confirmed."

Since the viewers needed entertainment, I agreed to unlock the video donation.

The price would be the same as usual.

"I’ve unlocked it, so please send them while staying within the rules. I can easily cut them off remotely if something weird comes through."

[Ah, damn.] [🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: I’m watching, don’t cross the line.] [🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Don’t even think about crossing the line.] [I still remember that fucking grapefruit..] [Kurrrrrrr.] [Ah, damn.] [Stay within the rules, guys lol.] [Already laughing, for real.]

So I unlocked the video donations, and a little while later—

[Twispookjjikmareupne has donated 10,000 won!] -(Video) Hehe [Ohh.] [Why is the first one that guy?] [Already feeling suspicious.] [🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: Don’t send anything weird.] [For real.] [The manager’s got our back lol.]

Twispookjjikmareupne was the first to donate.

Of all people, it was him.

He’s the one who always does the weirdest things.

So, I felt a bit suspicious.

"...Don’t send anything weird."

[Twispookjjikmareupne: It’s not weird, really; trust me.] [Would you trust yourself?] [You’re saying that without a conscience, huh? lol.] [Think about what you’ve done, you bastard.]

So the video sent by Twispookjjikmareupne started playing.

The title was "Mysterious Creature Found Behind the Door."

It seemed like a mystery-related video.

• "Eh, really?"

In the video, the man was holding his phone, peering through a locked door to see what was inside.

[🗡️All-powerful Cthulhu: What’s inside?] [Nothing, probably.] [Mystery trope) Disappears when you observe.] [Most mysteries are just lies.] [Twispookjjikmareupne: Isn’t mystery fun?]

The man pushed his phone towards a hidden spot, looking around.

How long had it been?

• "Coco ca…"

Finally, the man pulled out his phone and zoomed in to check the inside of the building.

Just then—

BAM!!!

A monster lunged at the camera at an incredible speed, sticking its face to the lens.

"Ah!!"

I fell backwards on the terrace in surprise.

"Ugh..."

I must have fallen on my back.

It hurt even more where I had surgery.

"Ugh..."

Just as I thought I couldn’t get up, I heard someone knocking on the door.
