Chapter 51: We Don't Need Money, Just Bring Your Body
"Hopeless bastards."
Seo Juhwan shook his head and clicked his tongue. At that, Han Soo-ah and even Seo Juhui, who would normally nitpick and complain, cast their gazes downward.
Watching their expressions, he let out a soft chuckle.
"That doesn't suit you. You look so gloomy it's awkward. Stop it."
He didn't really intend to scold them. He was just a bit taken aback.
But Seo Juhui and Han Soo-ah came back with a reflective tone.
"...No, it's just. Even I think it was too reckless on my part."
"I'm sorry, Oppa. I just got discharged from the military, so it's still a bit rough, right?"
"Yeah. I spoke without thinking. Oppa, just forget about it. We'll try it ourselves."
Seo Juhui, speaking words she didn't usually say, scratched her cheek awkwardly.
He looked at the two of them with a strange expression, then said bluntly:
"Who said I wasn't going to help?"
At those words, both of them looked up at him with wide eyes.
Seo Juhwan shrugged his shoulders.
"But don't expect too much since I don't have specialized knowledge either."
"Of course not! I have a conscience too."
"Hehe. Thank you so much, Oppa!"
"Ugh. If you're thankful, then succeed later and repay me, okay?"
"I will! Don't worry!"
"Me too!"
Both of them answered with bright smiles.
These two are like puppies, really.

Back home, Seo Juhwan fell into thought.
"What should I start with?"
Seo Juhwan didn't have specialized knowledge about internet streaming either. He just planned to leverage his experience from before regression as an internet broadcast enthusiast. For him, who had lived as a couch potato, subculture like novels, comics, and streaming were very familiar.
"Hmm. First, I need to decide on a concept."
As always, selection and focus are important. To create regular viewers, the broadcast concept must be clear. Starting from zero recognition and touching on various things indiscriminately was pointless.
"Sigh. I have no choice. Lucy."
[Yes.]
"Show me the status windows for Han Soo-ah and Seo Juhui."
He hadn't confirmed their status windows despite it being a while since contact. One was his blood sister, and the other was even more like a younger sister than his own sister. What good would it do to know his sister's sexual desire and fetish? It would only feel uncomfortable.
However, now he needed to know what they were good at.
With the familiar system sound of a ding, the status window appeared.
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Height: 149cm
Weight: 42kg
Favorability: B+
Current Sexual Desire: D
Fetishes: Morphophilia (Medium), Ursusagalmatophilia (Low)
Talents: Gaming (D/S), Sleeping (B/A+), Sensitive Areas (B/A), Singing (C/B)
The fetishes were on full display. And there were two of them.
Did everyone have a fetish?
Lucy's explanation followed.
[Morphophilia is a preference where one derives satisfaction from size differences in specific body parts such as height and hands.]
[Ursusagalmatophilia is a preference for teddy bears and similar stuffed bears.]
"...Well, those are really fitting fetishes for Soo-ah."
Han Soo-ah did like teddy bears. Especially the perverted bears wearing red tops and exposing their lower bodies.
"I didn't know she liked big things. Is it because she's small herself?"
Come to think of it, she had always liked holding hands since childhood. Seo Juhwan's hands and feet were larger than average.
He felt embarrassed for some reason and skipped past the fetishes to check her talents.
"What? Why is her gaming talent like that? She doesn't even play games..."
A surprised voice escaped him. S-rank? What level is that?
[It's a blessed talent. An S-rank would be a genius that you could count on your fingers even looking at a global scale.]
After hearing Lucy's explanation, he wondered if he should have her debut on a professional stage right away rather than streaming.
While reading her talents, something strange caught his eye.
"Sensitive Areas? Could that mean...?"
[It means Ming Chi, referring to having a bright and clear energy.]
"...Ah, that Ming Chi."
Seo Juhwan felt embarrassed and scratched the corner of his eye. Soo-ah was somewhat bright. Being with her made the people around her happier too.
"Ahem. Show me the next one."
[Yes. Seo Juhui's status window.]
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Height: 157cm
Weight: 51kg
Favorability: B
Current Sexual Desire: E
Fetishes: Oculophilia (Low)
Talents: Editing (C/A), Design (C/B+), Photography (C/B+), Promotion (E/B+)
[Oculophilia, which your younger sister has, is also called eye fixation syndrome. It's a condition where one becomes obsessed with specific eye shapes or derives pleasure from licking eyes or being licked on the eyes.]
"I didn't want to know that..."
Seo Juhwan spoke with absolute sincerity and a disgusted expression. He had absolutely no interest in his sister's fetish.
"Still, eye fixation syndrome is quite shocking..."
His sister was really something. Could it be that her love for that one manga was because of her fetish?
"She didn't seem self-aware about it though."
[Most people don't know their own fetishes. Since there are so many types of fetishes, many people don't even think about them as fetishes in the first place.]
"That's true."
Who would go around knowing all about things like smell fetishes or eye fetishes?
Seo Juhwan stopped worrying about fetishes and shifted his gaze to talents.
"Oh!"
Another surprised sound escaped from Seo Juhwan's mouth as he checked the talents.
Editing, design, photography.
Wasn't this exactly talents meant for an editor? She seemed to be finding her own path well. It seemed she had worked at an advertising company before regression, but he wasn't sure how things would go this time around.
More than that, he wondered if she would have grown well on her own without his help.
"Hmm. I'm getting a rough idea now."
First, the concept would be a comprehensive gaming broadcast.
The first game to do would be...
"Psychic Watch."
A game that, despite not being available for a very long time, had captured the number one PC room occupancy rate across the country.
A game whose beta test would start two days later.
