The Shocking Eunuch, Reborn as a Literary Girl

The confrontation begins in Chapter 32! (Please read on and vote!)

After all that commotion, Chiya Umehara achieved her goal of adding more chapters and raising prices, and even managed to refine her image by playing the victim.

Although there are certainly some people who still harbor resentment towards Chiya Umehara.
I think she's a manipulative woman, and I think she's greedy.

it's fine.

In a live stream where everyone overwhelmingly supports their own views, the few dissenters dare not voice their true opinions for fear of being attacked.

They can only lie low, keeping these grievances to themselves, waiting for the day they explode and get criticized, then they'll bring up these trivial matters from their memories as material to settle scores with themselves.

Just like when Little Bear Xia was dealt with that day.

However, that's not now.

After announcing plans for additional chapters and live streams, and temporarily stabilizing the public's opinion of the live stream, Chiya Umehara began her usual writing live stream today.

Compared to before, today's event was much more lively, and the atmosphere was more relaxed than the previous two live streams.

This made Umehara Chiya feel much more relaxed, and her update speed was noticeably slower than the previous two times.

The first two live streams showed a typing speed that clearly exceeded human limits, almost like a machine. From the camera's angle, it was so fast that his hands were leaving afterimages.

However, during this live broadcast, her hand gestures appeared elegant, composed, and effortless.

The rate at which the number of characters increases in the upper right corner also seems more reasonable.

He was typing away while humming a little tune.

The viewers in the live stream were also having some friendly discussions.

"Arisa-chan, I'm in a great mood today!"

"Since I'm in good shape, I hope I can create a good novel today! I'm really looking forward to it!"

"By the way, will Arisa-chan be streaming during the day from now on? Is she planning to stream and write full-time?"

"It's so great to see Arisa-chan every day from now on!"

This feeling made Chiya Umehara very happy.

The most pressing issue of money has been temporarily resolved.

There's no need to worry about my sister going to school anymore.

No need to worry about not being able to pay the rent.

It has already gained some initial popularity.

Although nothing has reached her ideal state yet—she's still at the bottom as a novelist and in the middle as a VTuber—she's not quite there yet.

Her assets are less than one-thousandth of what she had in her previous life.

But
It's ok.

Everything is moving in a better direction.

As long as people can see the road ahead, they will feel full of energy.

During her first two live streams, she kept quiet to avoid reading the comments that were criticizing her, and also to conserve her energy, hoping not to waste her already limited energy arguing with the chat room.

Now I don't have to work anymore.

Almost no one in the chat room is criticizing her anymore.

This made her unable to resist starting to interact with the audience.

"How many words will be updated today? That's a good question. Although the pace won't be as fast as before, the live stream will be longer, so... around 3 words? I'm not sure, but I'll try my best to finish the first volume of this book!"

"Thank you so much for the 20000 yen donation! Your extra chapter is already scheduled, please wait patiently!" "What will happen to Irieya-chan next...? Eh, that involves spoilers, I can't tell you. But you can look forward to the rest of the story~"

When she first started interacting with the audience, she tried her best to maintain her original "pure and gentle Vtuber" persona, speaking softly and gently, and being very polite when talking to everyone.

This is certainly not the real her.

However, after experiencing all sorts of intense and heated battles with the audience in her previous life, she now quite enjoys the feeling of non-aggression between them, with the audience and readers treating her with great affection.

It's better than having her live stream filled with insults directed at her parents, and readers constantly nitpicking and abusing her book, right?

If possible, she hopes to maintain this atmosphere, even if it's just through acting skills.

Originally
That was originally the hope.

She originally wanted to continue this gentle acting style forever and completely sever ties with her past self, who was seen as a mad dog by everyone.

But just then, she saw a comment on the screen.

"No, the chapter that was just updated was so boring! It was completely uninteresting and couldn't compare to the previous chapters at all."

Does this mean they're getting paid too much and aren't taking their writing seriously anymore?

"If all else fails, why not go back to work?"

At that moment, it was as if some switch hidden deep within Chiya Umehara had been flipped.

'This guy'

She clenched her teeth tightly, trying to control her emotions.

'I can't engage in online arguments. I have to maintain my current persona. I'm an incredibly gentle, genius, and beautiful young female writer; I absolutely can't be arguing with people online every day.'

'There's no need to get angry with someone like that. Others will help me criticize him. My reputation is so good now, he'll definitely get criticized.'

'I can't get involved; I have to play innocent, I have to act pitiful, I have to project a victim image so my fans will help me criticize him.'

She kept telling herself to calm down.

But in the end...
The instinct for bloodlust still prevailed over reason.

After half a minute of preparation, Chiya Umehara couldn't hold back and started criticizing.

"No, why would someone come here to teach me how to write a book? Can you even write a novel? And you're here to teach me?"

"I've already written such a long climax, and readers might be getting tired of the plot by reading it all in one go."

So this is a transitional segment, used to connect to the ending of the first volume later.

The purpose of this passage is twofold: firstly, to provide readers with a brief respite after a period of intense tension; and secondly, to organize the current information, clarifying the protagonist's sense of purpose and laying the emotional groundwork for the final battle.

"You only see this slightly bland part right now, have you considered what's to come? You can't even create anything, so why do you like to come out and give orders?"

"Get out of my way, you idiot! Don't read my novels or watch my live streams!"

She felt quite relieved when she said those words.

That's just how I feel.
That was a direct expression of his feelings, and it felt so satisfying to rant!
But she soon realized something was wrong.

'Holy crap, isn't this just repeating the mistakes of my predecessors?'

'Why can't I control my argumentative tongue?!'

Just as she was regretting it and thinking about how to make amends, she suddenly realized...
Wait a minute, the atmosphere in the comments section doesn't seem to be what she expected.

"Wow, Arisa-chan, you spoke so earnestly for so long."

"Arisa-chan is so cute when she gets serious www"
