BTOG 218 – Nana’s Stream #Answering questions

“Have you reflected?”

“Maybe.”

“What do you mean, [maybe]?”

“Ha-ha-ha.”

<She’s definitely not sorry.>

<That’s right, lol.>

<Her face is back to the stupid one she had at the start.>

<Funny Face (: ▹) >

“Haah… at least it was a good demonstration to proof your power…”

“Right?”

“I don’t look so smug. I can’t say anything if Muscle Corporation protested to me for breaking their stuff like that.”

Rinne complained while sighing bitterly because, the fact is, that was a bit of a problematic act.

If someone destroys their stuff so easily, the first thing to be subject to suspicion is the strength of the product.

To make it worse, Nana did it in front of so many eyes. If the makers misinterpret, this act can be considered as carrying out a negative campaign against the company.

“It was sturdy though?”

“Did that look sturdy to you, Chat?”

<It was like breaking chewy ice cream in the middle.>

<Looks soft indeed.>

<Even with ice cream, it would be impossible to fold it at that speed.>

<Enough, I believe her power is real… so ……(shudder)>

“Haa… whatever, at least it properly functions as proof of Nana’s power. Let’s just get that out of the way and move on to the next question.”

“Okeyy.”

Nana replied lightly and lay down the torn shaft against the gym wall.

“Well, the next question is… TADA! Here it is!”

[Are you good at sports?]

“Oh?”

“Not much different from earlier.”

“But, Rin-chan. I’ve lost a lot of sports.”

Rinne seemed a bit bored by the same kind of question, which came right after Nana showed off her superhuman physical abilities, but Nana thinks otherwise.

It was a fact that Nana had lost many times in sports, to the extent that she could not recall the number of times she had lost.

However, Nana said that without any hint of regret, if anything, she had this mischievous smile on her face.

<I guess she killed her opponent…>

<Losing by foul.>

<Cannot blame you for that.>

<I understand.>

<↑You guys… >

“No, that’s because I said to her that she shouldn’t win. And as far as I know, Nana never lost a match that she wanted to win.”

“I guess.”

<As expected.>

<You expect that?>

<Sasunana.> {amazing Nana}

<You see?>

<I knew it.>

<Nana is like that (a definite fact).>

<She’s purposely phrasing it like that.>

<I’ve lost before (on purpose).>

<Humble brag at its finest.>

<I mean, if you want to win, you absolutely can, right?>

<Evil lol.>

<She’s like the last boss in the evil team in sports manga.>

<And she did it without evil intent. lol.>

“In Nana’s case, it’s not just about power. Nana’s technique and speed are also extraordinary. Tell them your 100-meter record from junior high school.”

“Eee? I think it was about four seconds.”

“See?”

<Wow.>

<Blast!>

<Less than half of the world record is not good!>

<How many kilometers per hour are you going?>

<↑About 90 kilometers/hour.>

<Faster than a car?>

<Four seconds from a zero to a hundred? That’s absurd…>

<90 kilometers per hour on average. Which means that’s not her top speed.>

<Please run on the highway.>

<In junior high school, that means she’s faster now… that just mad.>

<The definition of Divine Feat.>

<Too much of a physical monster.>

“With that kind of specs. She shouldn’t even compete on a world-class level, even for fun.”

“I know it sounds sarcastic, but it’s no fun to win like that, and it’s boring to lose on purpose. It made me feels like I’m cheating, and I wouldn’t want to do it willingly.”

<Sarcasrtic(not)>

<Oh, well.>

<It’s won’t be a competition, is it?>

<The tools are going to break first.>

<Why don’t you take advantage and try to become a NINJA?>

<↑Certainly, athletic or challenging sports seem to be a good fit.>

Nana simply loves to exercise, and she loves to fight.

To Nana, to be able to move her body as she pleases can be called her hobby.

However, Nana basically does not like to compete with weaker opponents. If she is going to fight seriously, she prefers a foe strong enough to make her heart burn with excitement.

And that is something she can’t get in the real world, no matter how hard she tries.

Talent alone does not determine everything in sports, but even so, there are limits. Just as a baby cannot beat an adult, an ordinary person cannot beat Nana.

Nana has not only a high level of physical ability but her five senses have also been sharpened to the utmost limit.

Without at least a same or higher physical ability than Nana’s, a fair match would never have been possible in the first place.

If she wanted to win, she would absolutely win. This was not arrogance but a fact.

“That’s the main reason she started playing VR games. Thanks to the law of virtual space where status determines your physical abilities, Nana is finally on the even playing field with others.” {tln: bu..but, her reaction time…}

“It’s hard to move my body as I wished… but it’s really fun to be able to use all the strength I can use without cutting corners~”

<So that’s why…>

<I see.>

<Surely VR is better suited for Nana to play?>

<Normal people think of in-game avatars as [too amazing], but for Nana, they’re [hard to move].>

<I hear that most top athletes are like that until they get used to it, so maybe it’s true.>

<Power, speed, dexterity… that’s not fair!>

<Don’t you have any weaknesses?>

“No, I don’t.”

<God is dead.>

<We’re screwed…>

<Are you God’s messenger or something?>

<Yeah, it’s more believable if Nana is a messenger of God.>

<Nana, the Child of God.>

<Stop, you will get erased by some certain religion.>

<A completely invincible superhuman.>

<Just like a story about someone who claimed as the strongest primate.>

<↑The scary part is: that this is not a story.>

“Let’s move on…, here’s the next question!”

[Tell me what foods you like and what foods you don’t like.]

“Oh, a classic one…”

“Finally, something decent.”

<Thank God.>

<What the heck?>

<I think it was a good flow in our conversation.>

<I want something new.>

Nana is pleased with the normal questions that finally came. Rinne also exhaled in relief.

However, most of the viewers had come to see Nana’s out-of-the-ordinary specs and consider the flow of questions so far. This was rather good as a starting point.

In fact, the number of viewers had not decreased at all since the beginning, and if anything, it had increased.

“Nana will eat anything, but her diet is basically calorie-driven.”

“I like Western food with lots of calories, Chinese food with lots of calories, sweets with lots of calories. I don’t really like zero-calorie foods. There is no point in eating them.”

<N?>

<Calories.>

<What’s up with this calorie-focused girl?>

<What is the point of eating?>

<I love the way you pick a fight with all the women in the world.>

<I’m sure you eat seven loaves of pastry every morning.>

<Apologies to zero-calorie foods.>

<↑Konnyaku, for example, is worth eating.>

<Why aren’t you fat then…?>

“Nana has a high metabolism, it’s about three times that of a normal male, just for her to stay alive.>

“Hee?”

“Why is Nana the one who surprised?”

“Because I don’t know about that.”

Nana said this with a dazed look on her face while playing with both cheeks.

As Rinne said, Nana simply has a high basal metabolism. The energy required to maintain her physical capabilities is several times that of an adult male, even just to stay alive.

At first glance, it may seem fuel inefficient, but if you consider the extent of her abilities that was not the case. It costs only that much to provide specifications that far exceed those of an average person.

However, that is not the only reason why Nana like calorie-dense food.

Another reason is that the adults around her fed her a lot of such foods during her childhood because she would quickly become immobile unless she was fed a lot.

So actually, half of her love for high-calorie food was stemmed from what she is used to eating.

“Oh, but I do like ice cream. I especially like soft ice cream. I think I said this before in one of my streams.”

<So you still have a human heart?>

<Thank God.>

<I’m relieved.>

<Ice cream is a drink, so there are no calories.>

<curry is a drink.>

<↑ Stop saying that curry is a drinks.>

“Nana can eat exotic food too, right?”

“Food is food. and I won’t get poisoned anyway.”

<I’m sorry, but insects are no good for me.>

<Bee shoots larvae are delicious.>

<Wait a minute, wait a minute.>

<What?>

<I’m almost distracted by how strange the exotic food is, but there was something odd on what she just said, wasn’t there?>

<Poison doesn’t work on her lol.>

<Are you sure you’re human?>

<Nana the android rumor?>

The conversation was conducted in a relaxed atmosphere like that of daily conversation, but some viewers never missed Nana’s bombshell.

Rinne also heard Nana’s statement and clapped her hands as if she had just remembered.

“That’s right, and poison doesn’t work on Nana. And I’m pretty sure she can swallow a blowfish whole.”

“I can handle that much. But good viewers shouldn’t imitate me, okay?”

<What kind of constitution your body has?>

<I’ve spent my whole being just trying to hold back [You’re lying] escaped from my mouth.>

<It’s has poison that can kill ten people.>

<You can’t tell the difference between a lie and the truth.>

<No one going to copy you.>

<No, it needs to be said, because some child might.>

<It’s physically impossible to swallow a blowfish whole.>

If it was said by a normal person, it could be laughed off as [You’re kidding, right?], but when Rinne confirms it, they sound like a truth.

The fact that Rinne affirmed it with a very serious face made it even more believable. Rinne is the type of person who often tells jokes, but mostly as a prank or as a tease, and there were rare situations where she made jokes with a serious face.

“Fufu… next time, we will try to prove that.”

“No, it’s not possible, Nana. I know you won’t die, but everyone else will. We cannot do something that risks the life of another person.”

“Oh, you’re right…”

<You look disappointed, lol.>

<How do you know you won’t die?>

<I guess she tried it…>

<Someone finds a body then- AAAA drftgdg!!!. lol>

<I miss that meme.>

<Do not touch the darkness of the Takajou family.>

<You will get erased…>

“We got sidetracked.”

“If you’re just going to answer the question without some sidetracking, we can just record a video, and we’re done.”

“That’s true. But let’s not get sidetracked for too long.”

To the viewers, it was a surprise, but to the two girls, it was something trivial, and they easily swept it under the rug.

In the end, the question about Nana’s immunity to poison leaves to be unanswered, and the conversation moves on to the next question.

[I would like to know how you got to know Rinne and what kind of relationship you have with her.]

“Haven’t we talked about this a few times?” Nana tilted her head as she read the question.

“Not everyone knows about it, so why don’t you just tell them as many times as you can?”

“True.”

It was a topic that had already been talked about many times in her past stream, but Rinne’s little push made her convinced that she needed to tell it again.

“Let’s see. We got to know each other through mother. Ah, by that, I mean, Rinne’s mother and my mother. They were very close. We first met when I was three years old.”

“And to be precise, it seems that our fathers were also close friends.”

Although Nana does not know it in-depth, Rinne’s parents and Nana’s parents were childhood friends, father to father and mother to mother, respectively.

Rinne’s mother, Toki, is attracted to Takajou Mitsuki, Rinne’s father. And because Nana’s parents are trying hard to get them together, they also become a couple in the process of matching them.

Rinne and Nana met because of such cirmumtances.

“Nana was like a doll back then. She didn’t speak, nor did she move at all.”

“You know it couldn’t be helped. On the contrary, Rin-chan was too pure back then.”

<Ho-ho?>

<Stories about Rinne’s childhood are a treasure.>

<Doll.>

<Nana used to be a shy girl?>

<↑If She’s a little girl, timid probably more fitting.>

<Rather than pure, I suspect she was a brat. >

<I can easily imagine her dragging Nana around.>

<Rinne could have been a typical spoiled brat.>

<I would be more uncomfortable if Rinne was a quiet child.>

<What do you mean uncomfortable?>

<It’s hard to imagine Nana as a doll.>

“eh… Nana, is it okay if I revealed your past?”

Seeing the viewer’s response, Rinne asks Nana.

She knows that this is one of the most sensitive topics in Nana’s past.

But her worries seemed unfounded. Nana nodded her head with a cheerful expression on her face.

“It’s not something I have to hide, and I’m over it.”

Nana has already accepted and gotten over everything in her past, and that including the death of her parents.

There is no longer any need for her to be confused by her own feelings. What is important for Nana is here, in the present.

Rinne looked into Nana’s eyes and understood everything, nodded, and began to speak.

“Okay then. You guys, listen well. Nana has always been a person with monstrous power. When she was two years old, she once crushed her mother’s hand just because she was too happy and accidentally put too much power while trying to hold her hand.”

“That was a huge shock to me. I was so traumatized by it that there was a time when I was afraid to touch anything.”

<Wow…>

<It must have been really hard on your mother, too.>

<She was really born with it.>

<Crushing human body?”

<It’s not something to talk about so lightly…>

<So… by the time you were two years old, you already had super strength.>

<This is not simply a bit stronger.>

<This is not some laughing matter.>

Compared to Nana’s nonchalant attitude, the viewers were less excited about the past, which was heavier than they expected.

Nana’s past is filled with hardships to the extent that even Rinne does not easily talk about it. She is so out of the normal that it is hard for her to live with her power, which is so ironic.

“When I met her, she was just a doll. She didn’t have a shred of emotion, and I thought she was so boring.”

“Just saying, but when I first met Rin-chan. I was so surprised when she hugged me out of the blue…”

“It’s Nana’s fault for not reacting.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes.”

<*laugh*>

<Sasu Rinne.>

<Going in for a full-on hug on the first move is too bold.>

<You’d be surprised.>

<Little girls are allowed to be with other little girls. It’s safe.>

<It may seem heartwarming from an outside perspective, but knowing Nana, her parents must be nervous.>

<One wrong move, and Rinne could be seriously injured.>

<I love Rinne’s strong, bold moves.>

<That was Perfect communication.>

“I was… so happy.”

“Enough with that embracing stuff…”

“But it was a precious memory.”

In contrast to blushing and pouting Rinne, Nana said it in a tender tone.

When she first met Nana, Rinne thought, [What a fragile creature]. Nana had been raised carefully under the watchful eyes of her parents, and this was the first time she had ever met a child other than herself.

She was so surprised when she suddenly found herself in the arms of fellow child that all she could do was freeze.

If she resisted, she could hurt her, so she had no choice but to stay still.

Rinne held Nana in her arms for a long time until her body relaxed from the confusion.

Looking back, that was the point when Nana had become bonded to Rinne. She had been longing deep down in her heart to feel the warmth of human skin again.

<It’s a great story!>

<Didn’t expect Nana’s got this kind of background.>

<RiNana is triumphing in the end!>

<Isn’t it too rare for Rinne to get gentle?>

<They are not [just childhood friends].>

<**Gentle eyes**.>

<They are a married couple now.>

“Well, that’s how we met. The rest of the time, it’s like we’ve just grown up together like normal people.”

“We were always together all the time except at night. She had a free pass to my house. Sometimes she stayed for more than half a week, and she was almost like the child from our family.”

<I love it.>

<If we talk about Rinne’s childhood, then she was probably living in a mansion in Nagano, not in a villa in Tokyo.>

<Either way, I envy you.>

<It’s not like the houses are next door or anything.>

<Seriously though, you have a free pass to the Takajou mansion?>

<It’s the famous impregnable Takajou mansion.>

<I wish I had spent my childhood in a mansion.>

“That’s about it for my relationship with Rin-chan. I can only say that we were together the whole time.”

“It’s easy to talk about memories, but when you say relationship… it’s like… well, you get it.”

“Yeah, I guess? Ah, the only other way to answer this question is: [Because Rinne is my most important person in the world].”

“cough!”

<She has been caught off guard!>

<That was one hell of a cough.>

<It’s amazing you toy with Rinne so easily.>

<You’re number one.>

<She’ll throw in a ban with no warning on a moment’s notice.>

<Rinne is so loved. ……>

<I feel like my heart was assaulted by the side of Rinne that we didn’t know.>

<I think I understand now why Rinne had it so rough in Nana’s absence.>

<If Nana had been here, the Beastly Rinne would not be born…>

Unlike in the past, today’s Nana is more open and honest in expressing her feelings for Rinne.

The viewer was teasing Rinne’s purity, which she accidentally showed because she was caught off guard and choked up.

Nana had seen it often enough in the past that she didn’t think much about that, but the sight of Rinne being upset by something unexpected was something to be treasured in the eyes of others.

“Now, let’s see… I know it’s early, but I think it’s time for the last question. I really wanted to spend more time on this, but I still have the BATTLER competition tomorrow, and I have to do team practice.”

“I agree. Then let’s get to the last question.”

Quickly regaining her composure, Rinne prepares to close the stream. This time stream only lasted less than 30 minutes, and that’s because they still needed to prepare for tomorrow’s competition.

They had taken a precious slot on their training for the sake of this stream, but still, they really wanted to use as much of the available time to practice for the competition.

[Tell me about your future plans!]

“Hmmm……… I still feel like my main focus will be on game streaming…”

“So for now, you’ll probably stick mainly to game stream?”

“Basically, yeah, I think I will stick to WLO. I can try my hand at a lot of different games, but right now, WLO is the most fun for me. Though I’ll be helping out at some of the game tournaments, like BATTLER tomorrow, so I’m hoping people will see that as well.”

As for the last question, Nana had discussed the answer with Rinne beforehand.

However, the meaning of the meeting was not so significant, as the content was not significantly different from the previous stream. The purpose of the meeting was to ensure a smooth closing of the stream.

“I’ll have the stream time moved a little closer to the evening. I’ve been a little too careless so far.”

<That would really help.>

<You used to air during working hours, like a working man.>

<I can’t watch your stream from morning till evening.>

<This is great news.>

<I’d like to see you post a few more videos.>

<Speaking of videos, I love your video; when you chop wood for hours on end, that one has over 400,000 views.>

<The Red Wolf, Raid Battle, Golden Knight, Moon Wolf, and Wood Chopper are her channel’s five major contents.>

<I can chop wood.>

<I like WLO’s anime-like auto-camera work, so I hope they do more of it.>

<Speaking of action, how about a VR Everest summit?>

<↑Stop suggesting niche shit.>

<↑It could be interesting for someone that has a obsession for altitude sickness and near-death experiences.>

<↑Too outdated.>

The change in Nana’s schedule, who always streams from morning to night but rarely stream at late night, was a piece of happy news for her viewers.

And the clippings of her videos, which are steadily gaining views and beginning to generate a modest income, were also good news for her.

Still, Rinne thinks she should be more careful in the future before uploading these unexpectedly popular videos.

As long as you are in a business that depends on your popularity, there is nothing better than having a lot of backup videos at the ready.

“I know it’s a little short, but I think we’re almost done.”

“Yes, though your usual stream is just too long.”

“I can’t deny it.”

Nana accepts Rinne’s tease with a wry smile.

There are basically no meal breaks or bathroom breaks in Nana’s stream because she can hold out as long as she wants to. The only time she does have a break is when she and Rinne have dinner together.

“I’ll do my best in tomorrow’s competition too. I’d be happy if you could come and cheer me on.”

“I’m going to be serious tomorrow, so make some free time to come and watch.”

“Not when they are free? They need to make free time to watch you?”

“Of course.”

<That’s Rinne, all right.>

<If Rinne is going to be serious, it’s worth watching.>

<I haven’t seen a serious Rinne since her last WGCS.>

<Rinne in VR is a beast.>

<She has calmed down since she won the world championship title.>

<I’m looking forward to it.>

<I’m looking forward to watching BATTLER from outside the country.>

<I’m looking forward to seeing Nana go wild.>

“See you later, and subscribe to my channel if you like.”

“Nana, isn’t that the first time you’ve said that?”

“I’m started to sound like a proper streamer, am I?”

“More like a video contributor.”

“What’s that?”

Finally, after a moderately fitted dialogue, the stream screen switches to the end screen.

The short stream lasted only half an hour. But in that short span of time, it has received over a million views on the same day, and it became known as [The Holy Grail of RiNana Fans] because of the rarity of its content. But that’s another story.

===*

Nana channel awakening (success).

Nana and Rinne’s encounter were written about in the book’s limited edition bonus. Nana was instantly felled for Rinne by that [Perfect Communication]. Good going, Rinne!

By the way, the specs of Nana in junior high school and Nana now are about two orders of magnitude different. Nana is getting stronger and stronger just by being alive!

    Just casually decides to eat a whole blowfish, then remembers to warn people not to copy her. Sadly with the level of survival instincts of today’s youth, those warnings are necessary.
