Collab and Back (7)
The bathroom inside the mansion was made entirely of white marble, and the large windows offered a beautiful view of the city skyline. Somehow, this single bathroom seemed bigger than my old studio apartment.
"..."
I stepped alone into the spacious tub and stared up at the ceiling. Time to sort things out.
Danbalqueen really was a lesbian, just like the rumors floating around the internet. Maybe the reason she'd been sponsoring me all this time was because she wanted to sleep with me. That was basically 100% confirmed. The moment she found my weakness, she went straight for a kiss.
"Huu..."
And now I'd become her slave. I might end up living here for the rest of my life. That would mean quitting streaming...
"..."
While I was sinking into those gloomy thoughts, Danbalqueen entered the bathroom completely naked.
"!"
I couldn't tear my eyes away from the captivating figure that had been hidden beneath her clothes until now.
"What's wrong? Your face is all red."
"N-no, it's nothing..."
She slipped into the tub and sat right beside me.
"You seemed to feel it pretty well earlier. Do you touch yourself often? Now that I think about it, you bought a dildo too, didn't you?"
"It's just... having a woman's body is still so new to me..."
"You perverted bitch."
"Could you please call me a perverted bastard instead?"
Even if my appearance was like this, my heart was still that of a man. Without saying another word, she began fondling my large breasts.
"You're a man with these things attached?"
"...."
I was at a loss for words.
"I'll be counting on you from now on. My slave."
"Then... does that mean I'll be living here? Since I'm a slave and all..."
"Well~ That depends on how you behave. I'm the type who prefers free-range slaves."
"Ah~ So as long as I follow the rules, there won't be any touching, right?"
"What are you talking about?"
So it was true that she wouldn't make unreasonable demands. That was a relief. It looked like I could keep streaming after all.
'Should I ask her to help grow my channel while I'm at it?'
But saying that out loud required a lot of courage, so my mouth stayed shut until the bath was over.
After we finished bathing, I put on the bathrobe Danbalqueen handed me.
'I feel like some rich family's young lady. Though in reality I'm just a slave...'
The dining room had a massive table covered with dishes you'd only see at an expensive restaurant if you were willing to splurge.
"Whoa~"
"I hope it suits your taste."
"Did the butler make all of this?"
"Yes. He also takes care of the young lady's meals."
"Wow..."
"Enough with the admiration. Let's eat."
So this was how rich people lived — taking a bath with a nice view and then immediately eating food like this. What the hell had I been struggling so hard for all this time...?
'No, don't get discouraged. Honestly, ordering chicken in my old studio was way better, right?'
My pathetic attempt at mental victory quickly filled me with self-loathing. Then I remembered what I'd been meaning to ask earlier and glanced at Danbalqueen.
"Um, about that..."
"Yes?"
Win or lose, I just had to say it!
"Could you help me grow my streaming channel? My goal is to surpass the Queen and become the number one streamer on the platform."
"You're asking the number one to help you surpass the number one?"
"W-well, isn't this industry all about throwing away your pride to get bigger?"
"You certainly have a way with words."
Of course she wouldn't help. I should've just quietly eaten my steak.
"I won't make any unreasonable requests..."
I was already half resigned and put on my most pitiful expression.
"Oh~ That face is cute."
"Please..."
"Alright. I'll help you."
"R-really!?"
"The reason I sponsored you all this time was for exactly that purpose."
It felt like a dream. The Danbalqueen, no — the Queen herself — was going to help with my stream! I was so excited it felt like I'd gotten a cheat code.
"Queen! Thank you so much! Should I lick your toes as thanks?"
"Don't push your luck."
"Yes ma'am!"
"In return for helping with your stream... you know what that means, right?"
The Queen spoke with a sly look on her face. I knew exactly what she was implying.
"...Yes."
After the meal, I took off the bathrobe and changed back into my clothes. They smelled fresh and fluffy — I had no idea when they'd been washed and dried.
"Are you sure you don't need a ride home?"
"Yes, I'm not drunk or anything~"
"Then..."
Right before I left, the Queen pulled me in for a deep, passionate kiss.
"I'll contact you again."
"Y-yes... Queen... See you again..."
The next morning, I woke up with my entire body aching.
"Ugh..."
I immediately ran to the bathroom, pulled off my t-shirt, and checked myself in the mirror. There were marks from the Queen all over my body.
'Just how hard did she suck...'
I was already starting to regret saying I'd do anything.
I went back to my room and took out a convenience store sandwich I'd bought recently.
'I'm so tired. Maybe I should take the day off.'
But if I took a break, I was dying to know how many viewers I'd gained after the collab. Even though I was exhausted, I decided to stream anyway.
'What should I wear today?'
I chewed on the sandwich while thinking about today's outfit. The word "Queen" kept floating through my mind until a maid outfit suddenly came to mind.
'Perfect. I can just wear the maid outfit again.'
After finishing the sandwich, I opened my closet. There it was — the sleeveless maid dress. It was insanely pretty, but it had been tragically overshadowed by the dildo incident.
I put on the maid outfit and looked at myself in the bathroom mirror. The marks on my arms and neck were so obvious they completely ruined the outfit.
'Should I say I got scratched by a cat...?'
To cover the marks, I put on the choker I'd bought before and the arm warmers I'd gotten back when I worked part-time labor jobs. The choker looked lewdly perfect, but the arm warmers were so mismatched they stood out in a bad way.
'Can't be helped.'
I just turned on the stream like that.
"Hey everyone, hello~"
"Did you enjoy the collab yesterday?"
The collab was just an excuse. The real reason was something else.
"I had to eat lunch with someone personally. I don't know when we'll collab again, so look forward to it."
'Sharp as always...'
When I remembered what happened yesterday, my face turned slightly red.
"She was really kind. The Queen took such good care of me..."
I checked the viewer count. It had really increased by the targeted 1,000 people and was now hovering around 3,000. The collab had been short, but Danbalqueen's influence was truly enormous.
"Oh! My stream is getting 3,000 viewers even without any drama bait now. I'm so proud."
The chat was right. From now on, just maintaining this number would be hard.
'Still though. Would it kill them to give me some praise?'
"You tsunderes are always so bad at compliments."
"Okay okay, I'm sorry! If you're gonna say bad stuff, at least pay for it first."
"Whoa~ Ten thousand won from DanbalQueenHooray! Thank you so much for coming!"
"What do you mean kick them out!"
There were noticeably more chats from people using names with Danbalqueen in them. I'd been worried, but it seemed a lot of people actually found me charming.
"I never shoved spicy chicken up my ass!"
I wasn't sure if they were attracted to me or just attracted to the fact that they could say whatever they wanted. Either way...
"Unfortunately, you have to pay if you want to say things like that."
"Kyaaak! Thank you for ten thousand won!"
"No reaction this time. I'll work even harder from now on! I'll do my best until I reach 10,000 viewers!"
"Today's outfit is the maid dress with a choker and arm warmers added on."
"I wore it again because it got buried by that incident last time."
"Don't mention it! If you mention it I'll twerk!"
"W-whoa! O-one million won!!!"
A million won never failed to send a thrill through me. My vision cleared up and the excitement felt similar to the orgasm I'd experienced yesterday. If an orgasm was a 10, a million won donation was about a 3?
"Kyaaak! Thanks to the Queen, my viewer count went up by a thousand! Thank you so much, really, thank you so much!!"
"A reaction, huh..."
Instead of twerking, I stood up and struck a sexy pose. I tried several poses that would excite men — showing off my hips, breasts, and leg lines. I even raised my arms to show my armpits.
"How's this? Turned on?"
Finally, I slightly lifted the hem of my skirt and did a little maid imitation.
"Queen. I will continue to work hard as your slave from now on."
It felt like a secret relationship that the viewers didn't know about.
"I'm actually close with the Queen, you know? She even speaks casually to me."
"It's true! Right?"
"Ugh..."
It looked like she only spoke casually when we were alone. She could've at least given me a heads-up.
"Sorry for the drama bait. Let's start the maid concept then. Master~ Is there anything you'd like me to do?"
"N-not that! You have dirty things you want to say, don't you? Pay up first!"
"Myungchul... doesn't saying something like that make you feel pathetic...?"
"Haa... Fine, since I took the money I'll do it. Myungchul Master, I want to suck your dick."
"You probably won't be able to have any descendants though."
"Anyway, thank you for two thousand won. You'll meet a good person someday. Or maybe not..."
"Sure thing."
I raised my middle finger and glared at the camera.
"Go fuck yourself and get your shit together."
"There's no dirt!"
"You're living up to your username."
Come to think of it, I couldn't do a game stream last time because of the collab.
"Then as I promised earlier today..."
"I'm going to play the escape room game that's popular these days~"
'That reaction seems natural. I don't usually do game streams anyway.'
Still, from my perspective it would make my content much richer, so it was worth trying.
"Aww, come on! Just watch for ten minutes please!"
Despite my desperate plea, the viewer count dropped by 1,200.
'I'm fucked.'
