The Declaration of the Egen-Girl

"Right... then, I'll wrap up today's broadcast here." With that final sentence, I ended the stream.

"Phew..." It was a more exhausting broadcast than I’d anticipated. Their way of thinking was completely different from mine, and above all, I had already made myself so unpopular that not a single person was willing to help me.

"Are you satisfied now?" I asked the System.

The System pondered for a moment. I don't know what it's so dissatisfied about... I did everything it told me to do, yet it won't say it's satisfied.

"Then what's the problem?"

"? Isn't this decent for a first stream?" I think hitting 50 viewers on my first broadcast is a pretty impressive record. The retention was good, and even though I don't do YouTube, I thought there were plenty of clips worth using.

"The viewers were just being snarky with their words. Seeing as the numbers held steady until the end, it's hard to say it wasn't fun, right? Maybe it's just not your taste."

"Huh?"

"I *am* a guy."

"...So?"

"Hmm..." I had played the man-hating card as a desperate measure to grab attention early on, but it seemed the System needed more dopamine.

"So what, you want me to pretend to be a guy now?"

"Huh?"

I didn't even have a clue what that felt like. "Uh... so, like a lesbian?"

"Act like a lesbian to get attention from women?"

"Well, in this world, acting like a lesbian is probably synonymous with acting like a guy, isn't it?"

"Is that even possible?"

"A gift?"

The God of this world... If I meet them, I'll immediately lift them up and hit them with a suplex...

And just like that, the translucent window vanished again. Honestly, I didn't have any particular complaints about being possessed in this world. In my original world, I was barely scraping by with part-time jobs, and since I'd only just started streaming, there weren't any viewers who were genuinely attached to me.

"If anything, it feels like the God of this world is the most attached to me?"

How immersed must they be... I stopped thinking, sensing the translucent window was about to reappear, and planned my future broadcasts.

"First off, I should keep the man-hating concept, right?" It was the most important element, and it aligned with my actual values, so there was no reason to throw it away.

"Lesbian... that probably won't work."

A man-hating lesbian. In my original world, that would be a woman-hating gay man. Of course, considering the gender imbalance in this world, it felt even more intense.

"Then, isn't man-hating actually a bad idea?" I thought the man-hating itself would be a huge barrier to entry, but I didn't feel like defending men at the cost of my pride.

To become a girl popular with girls in this world, I thought about the guys who were popular with women in my previous world.

"There are two main types, right?"

Either extremely feminine or extremely masculine. It seemed the more extreme the vibe, the more popular they were on stream.

"You want me to act weak and be all cutesy to people?"

For the sake of my "Johnson," the Egen-Hakuryu concept was scrapped.

"Then, a total alpha male. Or, by these standards, an alpha female style."

Does that make me a perfect Teto-nyeo (Teto-girl) now? "Wait, hold on."

I immediately searched for Teto and Egen on the internet. "This is the opposite, too."

Right. From now on, I am an Egen-nyeo (Egen-girl).

I declared myself an Egen-girl and went to sleep. "I should exercise, right?"

I was worried about exercise since it didn't seem like outdoor activities would be easy. If I kept eating, sleeping, and streaming in this room, I felt like I'd end up in the same situation as the men I hated.

"I'll have to look for some bodyweight exercises."

I installed an exercise assistant app on my smartphone and sat in my chair.

"Phew." I am an Egen-girl. I am an Egen-girl.

I set the stream title, turned on the virtual avatar and voice modulator, and prepared to stream.

The translucent window appeared suddenly. "Yeah, the faster I grow, the better."

The amount left in my account was 5 million won. It wasn't money that would disappear quickly, but it wasn't enough either. I had to save money as fast as possible to reduce the need to go outside.

'Click.'

I pressed the stream start button and waited for viewers to arrive. Still, since it was the weekend, I expected a lot of viewers despite the early hour.

The viewer count changed the moment I turned on the stream.

It was EnglishNumber again. "Our Youngsu-nim, do you like me?"

"Yes! Since it's made of only English and numbers, I'll call you Youngsu-nim!"

Youngsu-nim seemed to have given up on something, but he seemed to like it well enough.

"Oh! Right."

"Come to think of it, it seems like a problem for a streamer to call a specific viewer by a nickname."

"Ayy. You're my first viewer and you came right to my second stream, how can I pretend not to know you? Instead, I have a method!"

I clicked on the asdf123 ID and registered him as a manager.

"Congratulations on becoming the second slave of our kingdom! Youngsu-nim!"

Viewers who had entered at some point congratulated the birth of a slave.

"What are you talking about, Youngsu-nim! My first slave is our Ppoppi! Hurry up and apologize to your senior!"

"Ah. Don't leave, I'll make sure to get some gifticons for the slaves who worked hard later..."

"I'll decline the refusal!"

I announced the "sleeve stuffing" (bribing) and proceeded with the stream. "Now, let's play MinerCraft again today! Today's goal is to mine diamonds and reach the Nether!"

"A true Egen-girl hates men."

"Liking men is an act that deviates from Egen-ness."

"An Egen-girl must treat men like inanimate objects!"

"Now. Will you become an Egen-girl with me? My subjects?"

It's been about 10 minutes since I started the stream, and the viewer count has surpassed 30.

"Anyway! In celebration of becoming an Egen-girl, I will only use informal speech with you all from now on."

"Yes. I shall do as I please."

I informed the viewers I would use informal speech and launched MinerCraft.

"From today, I will only perform Egen-like actions."

"Ahem. To me, Egen is myself."

Let's enter MinerCraft. It was essentially the same state as the beginning.

"Now, I am a MinerCraft master. I can do anything."

Just like before, I started by chopping wood and set off on a journey to find diamonds.

"Wow!!! Diamonds!"

About ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠an hour after starting MinerCraft, I succeeded in finding diamonds.

"Check the surroundings carefully..."

Recalling the memory of what happened before, I tried to mine the diamonds as carefully as possible, but...

"Ah."

That was a very un-Egen-like action.

"Hmm..."

The diamond was at my feet in a one-block tunnel. 'What could possibly go wrong?'

I placed my character on top of the diamond ore and mined the diamond ore block on the floor. Fortunately, it was just normal deepslate underneath, and I didn't end up falling into lava again.

"Phew..."

"No! I'm not relieved! It's just... uh... a cigarette! I was smoking!"

"Indoor smoking is the true Egen way!"

"Alright! I won't smoke indoors!"

I pretended to put out a cigarette I wasn't even smoking.

"Ugh! What do you want me to do!"

I ignored the chat window and dug again to find more diamonds.

"..."

I didn't respond to the chat and kept looking for diamonds.

About 15 minutes later,

"Now it's done!"

I completed a full set of diamond armor.

"As expected, luck follows an Egen-girl."

"Ahem."

I went back up to the surface and went around looking for lava to make obsidian.

"Oh! Lava!"

"Huh?"

"Hmm! An Egen-girl doesn't care about missions!"

I ignored the donation and poured a water bucket to make obsidian.

I stepped on the obsidian and mined the obsidian block on the floor.

"It takes quite a while..."

After about 10 seconds, the obsidian broke.

"Huh?!"

There was lava underneath the obsidian, the obsidian melted into the lava, and I fell right into the hole.

"No!!!!"

I struggled to survive, but the obsidian walls surrounding me had no intention of helping, and I died just like that.

"Ah. F*ck."

"Sniff."

Just like that, my full diamond set and the food I'd worked so hard to collect vanished in an instant. When I respawned, I saw the same screen as 1 hour and 20 minutes ago.

"Youngsu-nim, thank you..."

I gave Youngsu the best reaction I could, but my tension wouldn't rise anymore.

"Ha... should I quit streaming?"

I turned off MinerCraft, which I didn't even want to look at anymore.
