Chapter 52 - Stream Comment Section
Around 6:00 AM, Japan time.
The streaming app had a function that would notify users when a specific streamer started broadcasting. Many fans and dungeon explorers who were keeping an eye on his movements used this function so they could come and watch as soon as Hayate began a dungeon clear.
Hayate had announced that he was heading from Thailand to America, so his viewers were aware that he was currently in the US and that his purpose for being there was to rescue Mary Tyler, the daughter of the US President.
Mary is also a popular Hollywood actress in Japan, so the number of people cheering for Hayate as he went to her rescue had grown quite large.
Hayate had started clearing the dungeon alone. There were other strange things too.
Unlike in the game, when you move your body vigorously to fight in the real world, you naturally get out of breath. There are very few explorers who can proceed through a dungeon while explaining monster weaknesses and commentating on the battle as they fight for their lives.
Among them, Hayate was a streamer that viewers could watch with a sense of security.
He always showed a sense of composure.
The only exception was when Rena was about to be attacked, when his expression would turn serious for just a brief moment. Incidentally, that momentary glimpse of his serious face is clipped from the stream videos by his female fans, spread on social media, and always livens up the trending topics.
Even as the comment section buzzed with talk of past streams, Hayate pushed through the dungeon in silence.
Viewers found Hayate’s demeanor strange.
Among the female fans who were always attuned to Hayate’s expressions, some noticed that something was wrong with him. Meanwhile, the male viewers interested in the dungeon clearing were concerned about something else.
Hayate stabbed the swords equipped on his manipulators into the dungeon wall and, ignoring most of the monsters he should have had to fight, ran along the wall.
If he had wanted to, he could have run along the walls as a shortcut when he went to rescue Rena as well. However, this utilizes his ninja abilities to some extent. Moreover, at that time, he was equipped with manipulators that were inferior to the ones he currently used, so he would have had to rely on his ninja powers more than he does now. That’s why he didn’t use this clearing method before, thinking it was too much of a cheat.
Hayate wanted to spread the word that you could fight coolly with the four-sword style, so he tried to avoid clearing dungeons without fighting monsters as much as possible.
However, a certain man had ordered Hayate to do just that.
‘Clear the Spring Dungeon at maximum speed.’
Following that command, the strongest streamer pushed through the dungeon via the shortest possible route.
