Chapter 21 - Why Not Me?

On the screen is shown the MeTube account Doctor-Vader: 999k metubers, earning dashboard, comments all over the screen ,everything that Lui has ever wished for is now in front of his face.

Lui: I-I can't believe it!

Daiji: Eh?! So you actually didn't know about me?

Lui: What do you mean? You just showed it to me.

Daiji: Ah! Ah! And here I thought you were lying at first and couldn't say you were my fan, but it seems you actually didn't know that I was a MeTube star.

Lui: I didn't know!! But how did you make it? How? Like, tell me everything specific, please! I want to know everything,what tags you use, what titles, how you make the thumbnails? The description of the video, does it matter? Do you use other social media to promote yourself? Huh, Daiji?! What?! Tell me every single detail!!

Daiji: Hmm… about that… well, I am kinda gifted, you know. Hehe.

Lui: Huh? Gifted? So you mean using religions makes you like this? Hmm… well, when I think about it, religions are all over the world and have been for a long time. Many people find them relatable maybe… I see, I never thought about religions, but this one is really informative. What else?

Daiji: Well, it's not like that actually...

Lui: What? You mean to keep a personality that doesn't fully confirm anything? If you say something fully about one religion, then the others will feel inferior, so by not fully confirming a belief, it turns into multi-religion content, so all kinds join together without any line separating them? Could it really be this simple?

Daiji: Oi, you are not even listening to me!!

Lui: No, I am listening to you, and I will try these two methods for my MeTube channel.

Daiji: Let me finish my sentence!!

Lui: Oh, so you are going to tell me even more tricks and tips? Thank you, really, I will gladly listen to all of them,just make them as detailed as possible.

Daiji: I didn't… I don't know how I got famous. That is the truth. sighs

Lui: Uh? You… don't??????????????????

What are you saying, you don't?! You showed me the channel,you achieved everything that any other MeTuber could have ever wanted! What do you mean you don't know?!

Daiji: I really don't know!!

Lui: What nonsense are you talking? When did you start your channel? What was the amount of metubers you had then?

Daiji: I started it 3 weeks ago with a total of 100k metubers since day ...…

Lui doesn't believe the words he just heard from Daiji. 3 weeks,3 simple weeks and Daiji earned 100k metubers. In comparison, Lui has spent 7 months and hasn't gotten more than 100 views with no more than 1 metuber which is himself, on another account.

Lui: Do you have any laptop or PC here? I wanna check something right now!!

Daiji: Huh? Well, there is a PC upstairs, but I have the laptop right here on the couch. takes laptop, gives it to Lui

Lui (thinking): He is definitely lying to me. There is no way he has been on this only for 3 weeks. That is absurd. I spent so many months on it and didn't achieve anything significant. It just doesn't make any sense… but I will put his lie down right now. I hate people who lie the most. Why lie? Why make promises when you can't keep them? Why… I hate them!

searches on SocialSword

Lui (thinking): Okay, now prepare yourself… to get demolished from your lie. types doctorvader2683, channel name, results show up

Lui (thinking): What is going on here? How can he earn this many metubers from just one video?!

speaks to Daiji

Lui: Oi, you have 999k metubers now, right? You said earlier that you started 3 weeks ago and had 100k on day one is that your channel or are you lying to me?

Daiji: As I thought, you didn't even bother to listen to me till the end, did you? As you saw, I earned around 100k metubers on day one, then I just uploaded normally, and well… I was getting double the amount every day.

Lui: Double?? Like… day one? Wait calculates Day 1 = 100k, Day 2 = 200k, Day 3 = 400k, Day 4 = 800k… wait?! That would end up way more?! What are you saying? It wouldn't make sense,by day 4 you would have over 1.1 million in total, but you only have 999k!!

Daiji: That's because MeTube stopped it. They thought I was scamming, so they set a limit on how many metubers I can gain which ends tomorrow.

Lui: MeTube? You got restricted?

Daiji: Yeah, they said something like that in an email. But they still pay me a lot of money, though.

Lui: How did you do this? What are you, a prodigy?! Do you know how much I've tried these past months to earn money online? While you ,you earned that many metubers from day one… starts laughing

Ahahaha… ah, this life is not fair at all. You were drowning in metubers and don't even know why, while I was thirsty for even one person… ah, I hate this. I want to earn money. Please, I don't care what methods you used, just tell me how you make videos. Help me with my channel ,I want to earn money too!

Daiji: Sorry, I can't help you with your channel.

Lui: Huh? So this is it? After all, you're all the same. Everyone wants help for themselves, but when others ask, they push them down. You just want all the money for yourself. I get it… I can't blame you. I know money is attractive. I just hoped I could help my parents somehow…

Daiji: But you can help me! What do you say? I think you understand MeTube better than me. Maybe you can help me become even better. Of course, I will pay you a ton of money. So what do you think… as a job?

Lui: Job? Me?
