Chapter Title: Cursed with Death if I Break RP

⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ Time Until Debut Stream: 19:12:47 Is this what it feels like to know the exact date and time of your death?
Of course, the timer sitting there in the upper right of my vision wasn't counting down my lifespan—it was the countdown to my debut stream.
Still, it made me just as anxious anyway.
After that, I kept experimenting with my ability, and I learned a few things.
First.
The wiki updates in real time.
Take this half-finished cola, for example.
If I use my ability on it...
📄 OMNIA WIKI 📄 [Chelsea Cola Left by Lee Jia]
1. Overview
>Chelsea Cola left by Lee Jia. 2. Details
>Of the total 499ml of cola, Lee Jia drank exactly 253ml, leaving 246ml now. That's the kind of info it spits out.
But if I chug the rest of it and use the ability again, the wiki updates.
Meaning I can update the wiki in real time.
I downed the rest of the cola.
Gulp.
Gulp.
Gulp.
"Urp."
Then I tried the ability again.
📄 OMNIA WIKI 📄 [Chelsea Cola Drunk by Lee Jia]
1. Overview
>Chelsea Cola drunk by Lee Jia. 2. Details
>Of the total 499ml of cola, Lee Jia drank exactly 497ml, leaving 2ml now. Typically, leaving 2ml is enough to call it 'drunk,' so this document treats it as fully consumed. 3. Trivia
>After drinking this cola, Lee Jia burped. "..."
It added a ton of pointless trivia, but the important part?
The entry changed because I drank the cola.
Second.
The wiki.
Records only facts.
No matter what object I check.
There might be trivia, but no baseless lies.
Which means.
The ridiculous settings in the Lee Jia (VTuber) entry are all true.
"..."
Fine, whatever with the rest.
📜 ARCHIVIST'S DUTY 📜 1. Take breaks only after death. Fail to stream at least once a day, and you'll be forcibly returned to the Omnia Archive.
2. Create at least one new [Item] document per month.
3. Create at least one new [Anomalous Phenomenon] document per month.
4. Fail any duty above, and your Archivist qualification will be immediately revoked and disposed of.
- Archivist's Duty updates in real time. -
Pay attention to the fourth clause of the Archivist's Duty.
4. Fail any duty above, and your Archivist qualification will be immediately revoked and disposed of.
Not sure what "disposed of" means exactly—people aren't trash—but it's definitely not a positive term.
So, to avoid disposal.
I have to stream at least once a day.
And create new Item and Anomalous Phenomenon documents at least once a month.
Streaming? Not hard.
It just says "at least once a day," no viewer minimum or time limit.
Hell, start a stream, end it after one minute with zero viewers. Should count.
The real issue.
Creating new [Item] and [Anomalous Phenomenon] documents once a month.
Yeah.
Not existing ones.
New ones, undiscovered by the world.
Which means I have to walk into an anomalous phenomenon zone myself.
In plain English: go die.
No matter how peaceful the world got.
Anomalous phenomenon zones are still hellscapes even a decade later.
Awakeners hate going in, let alone me, a regular person?
I'd last ten minutes tops before dying or going insane.
"..."
But am I really a regular person to begin with?
According to the wiki.
⚔ STATUS ⚔ 📛 Name: Lee Jia 🎂 Age: 24 🧬 Race: Fervent Devotee of Reflecting Myriad Stars ⚧️ Gender: Female ...My race isn't even human.
The hell? The more I look, the more absurd it gets.
How's a race called "Fervent Devotee of Reflecting Myriad Stars"?
Race: Human.
Race: Orc.
Race: Vampire.
If you're gonna do VTuber RP, pick something straightforward like that.
What even is "Fervent Devotee of Reflecting Myriad Stars," you weebs?
Sounds like a cult fanatic.
And here I am.
A total atheist who doesn't believe in gods.
That was when it hit.
"...Huh?"
Out of nowhere.
My head felt heavy as lead.
Not figuratively—literally so heavy I could barely stand.
No time to brace for the sudden assault.
I slammed my head into the floor.
Bam!
Hit it so hard the floor cratered like a bomb went off.
I knew instinctively.
As a fervent devotee of Lord Reflecting Myriad Stars, declaring atheism was blasphemy.
Payback time.
"Guhhh..."
The pressure on my head intensified.
At this rate, it'd really explode.
"P-Please...!"
I apologized with all my heart.
Fake wouldn't cut it.
"I-I'm sorry...!"
"Never again, I swear...!"
Instantly.
The pressure vanished.
"Hah, hah, hah, hah...!"
I gasped for air.
I-I almost died...!
If I hadn't apologized, my skull would've cracked open for real.
...I knew the wiki was all facts already.
Didn't expect proof like this.
Guess I'm afflicted with a deadly curse:
Break the fanatic RP, and die.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ "Grrrh..."
I groaned like a zombie rising from the bed.
As expected, sleep was uncomfortable as hell.
These cumbersome tits made prone sleeping impossible.
The blasphemy headache was just icing.
Stroke, stroke.
I rubbed my forehead.
There was a lump.
"..."
Even in this rundown house.
Smashing my head hard enough to dent the floor, and it ends with just a bruise?
This body's way beyond human limits.
"Ow ow ow..."
Still hurts the same.
Rubbing the lump, I checked the countdown in the upper right again.
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ Time Until Debut Stream: 07:11:12 Guess it's time to prep the debut stream.
But.
How the hell do I prep a stream?
Obviously, I'm a total noob who's never streamed.
I've watched enough VTuber streams to know the gear needed, roughly...
Problem is.
No money.
Some say VTubing's so easy, just grab a tablet and go—anyone can do it.
Bullshit.
So much to prep for VTubing.
High-end PC.
High-end mic.
Audio interface.
Tracking camera.
All the software.
And more.
Higher barrier than cam streaming, even.
Fine, say I scrape that together somehow.
What about the model?
Can't just grab a free one and stream.
Need a proper commissioned model to start...
No money.
No time.
Seven hours till debut.
...Technically.
Make an account on a platform, hit "go live," then immediately "end stream," and duty fulfilled.
But after yesterday's blasphemy shock.
Feels like skimping will trigger another punishment.
Pondering how to actually start as I worried.
Suddenly.
I checked my own wiki entry again.
📄 OMNIA WIKI 📄 [Lee Jia (VTuber)]
Yeah.
Lee Jia, in parentheses VTuber.
Do I really need a new model?
My body's already "VTuber Lee Jia."
...Doesn't make sense to me either, but the wiki says so.
Wiki doesn't lie.
Only facts.
Model aside.
Gear's the issue.
Checked my bank: enough for a cheap face-tracking cam.
No need to think more.
Ordered a cam with same-day delivery.
Rushed to boot the PC and set up VTuber streaming.
[Omnia Streaming Program] [Version: Latest] [Status: Normal] "..."
Holy shit.
Booted the PC, and bam—unknown program installed, VTuber setup complete.
Perfectly, even.
Hell, it came with a Live2D model prepped.
The model on screen?
Uncannily matched my mirror reflection.
Looks like Reflecting Myriad Stars set the stage proper.
What thorough RP.
Great, if it's good, it's good...
Bam!
"Gyaak...!"
Slammed my head on the desk.
Again.
Blasphemy punishment.
"S-Sorry! Not setup, it's RP!"
Bam!
"Kyaaak... N-No, not RP, it's fact! You bastard!"
Bam!
"Why this time, fuck!"
Bam!
"Uwaaaah... S-Sorry for cursing..."
