Chapter 69 - Chapter 62 Mishap List
Thursday
Classes ended without incident, and it was club time. As usual, Mion and I unlocked the door and waited for Bell-buchou. She probably had a discussion with the production group she’s close to last night, so I was curious how that turned out.
“Shou-kun, please check the video I’m uploading today.”
“Oh, that’s right, last week was Thursday.”
“Yes. Are you going to do a live stream this week?”
“Maybe a relaxed one. Ah, but it might be better if Yata-sensei is here. It’ll be our first live stream since monetizing.”
There’s a chance some weirdos might get involved, and I’m worried about Mion. Until the channel develops a stable atmosphere like Majo Bell’s Manor, I think it’s better to have sensei’s supervision.
“I’ll ask if sensei can be there. I’m planning for Saturday night.”
“Roger. I’m fine with it.”
Replying, I checked the video scheduled for upload. The main content was showing me setting various traps during lunchtime before the live stream, and preparing paralysis knives as a trump card.
“I included the Anti-Paralysis Potion story, but should I remove it?”
“Ah, because of the player guild discussion?”
“Yes.”
I wonder. Haven’t they made enough money already? “I think it’s fine as is. I’ll consider it if Bell-buchou tells me to stop, but she said before that I could do whatever I liked.”
Just then, the club room door opened, and Bell-buchou appeared.
“Sorry to keep you waiting.”
“‘Sup.”
“Hello.”
Bell-buchou sat excitedly at her desk and put on her VR HMD.
“About yesterday’s discussion, we’ve decided to move forward with establishing a player guild!”
“Huh… So I’m participating too, after all?”
“Yes, everyone was delighted.”
“Roger. But Mion and I will just be providing our voices.”
Mion nodded at my words. Right. Even I would feel out of place at a meeting with strangers, thinking, Should I really be here?
“Um, did you tell everyone that Seth-chan is Shou-kun’s sister?”
Oh, that’s right. Seth was the one who suggested I be the external director, wasn’t she?
“I managed to gloss over that. I made it out that Mion-san, being my fan, helped me during the previous live stream, and that I asked for his help through her connection.”
“That’s a relief. I don’t get harassed in-game, but Seth (Miki) might not be so lucky.”
Harrassment reporting is fully implemented, and Seth (Miki), being a junior high student, is below the PK-target age. I think she’d be fine, but there’s still a possibility of MPK or other issues. And she also uses Saezutter.
“Mion, do you know Seth (Miki)’s Saezutter account?”
“Yes. She told me the other day, and I followed her. Want to see it?”
“No, not now.”
I was curious what she wrote, but she shouldn't be the type to cause a flame war. She—despite her choice of words—says sensible things.
“You had cream stew for dinner last night, didn’t you?”
“…Yes.”
Well, that much is fine.
“Everyone’s here~.”
Yata-sensei appeared and took her seat. I thought Mion would talk about the weekend live stream, but instead,
“Please check the video scheduled for upload today.”
That was first. Mion handed the video to Bell-buchou and Yata-sensei.
“Alright, I’ll take a look.”
“Yes~.”
“Ah, I’m good.”
If there was any problem, it would be if Bell-buchou halted the part about the Anti-Paralysis Potion recipe, but…
“I think it’s fine. I guess this brings us up to speed with the live stream.”
“Yes.”
“Just to confirm, is it okay to make the Anti-Paralysis Potion recipe public now?”
“Yes, it’s no problem. The national potion buy-up has finished, and now there’s more demand for regular Heal Potions targeting new users.”
Oh, the peak is over. Then I guess there’s no need to worry about it. I still feel bad that I couldn’t tell Nat.
“No problems~. Please upload it~.”
“Yes.”
She uploaded and published it skillfully, and the view count rapidly increased…
“Yata-sensei. I’m thinking of doing a live stream on Saturday; could you support us?”
“Yes~, I can~. What kind of live stream are you planning~?”
“I’m planning a visit to Shou-kun’s My Home.”
Ah, that’s right, the previous live stream ended in front of the cave. So it would be a tour of the inside of the cave and the ancient ruins, I guess? That forge room would probably make people envious.
“Um, if possible, I’d like to hold a meeting with the members who will establish the player guild before that, is that alright?”
“I’m free anytime, but… it won’t take long, will it?”
“To finish quickly, it would be better to have a ‘mishap list’ beforehand…”
Could you please stop using the term “mishap list”?
“I have one if my subjective opinion is okay.”
“Seriously…? No, I can’t tell if I’m messing up myself, so Mion’s subjective opinion is fine. In fact, it’d be a great help.”
“It’s not a mishap list, it’s an amazing list, okay?”
“Ah, yes, right…”
Bell-buchou and Yata-sensei, please stop smirking…
“Then, shall we make it from 8:30 tonight? I’ll tell them the limit is one hour, so don’t worry.”
“Huh? But today is Majo Bell’s live stream day…”
It used to be Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, but it changed to Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday, I think. Same day though.
“I was planning to take a break today anyway, so it’s no problem. Once I understood the player guild situation on Tuesday, I wanted to get it established by Sunday.”
“In that case… Understood.”
“Understood.”
I don’t want it to drag on too long either, so it would be good if it ended in about 30 minutes. I’m finally planning to do blacksmithing today.
“By the way, do you have that list now?”
“Yes. Here it is.”
Looking at the text data she handed me…

“Are these S, A, B ranks your subjective opinion, Mion?”
“Yes.”
I understood Nation Founding Possible being S, but were River Fish Capture/Cooking and Rabbit Meat Hotpot really A? Well, if Mion thinks so, it’s fine.
“May I see it?”
“Go ahead.”
Ah, Bell-buchou froze…
