Chapter Title: A Man Blessed with Fortune
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Yorang Garden was a server that ran for two weeks.
Invitations were handled freely during that period.
There was no disadvantage to joining late.
There wasn't much of an advantage to starting early either.
As long as you had an invitation, anyone could join.
The only downside was that joining after some time had passed made it hard to blend into the server.
But that wasn't a big issue for the major streamers.
They didn't need to ride the wave—they were the wave itself.
So.
"Ah, I need to grab an RP, right? What's something fun for RP?"
Jjining, the Garden cam girl,
who was now looking to branch out and become a general gaming streamer,
pondered what RP would be the most entertaining.
Of course, the easiest option was.
- Just do the usual beauty trap gg
- Beauty trap cop gg
- Beauty trap gang gg
Concepts that fully utilized her looks.
But Jjining didn't love repeating the same RP style every server.
"I kinda want to try something new too. Got any good ideas? Or maybe I should make a family or something?"
- Gasp
- Gasp
- Gasp
- Please don't make a husband
- Might as well brew some broth instead
- Protect our horns pls
"No, making a family doesn't have to mean that. I could make a dad too!"
- Gasp
- Gasp
- Everyone watch your words
- Gonna crack down hard on chat discipline
"Don't get weird ideas. I just heard about the server situation... Apparently, the Yorang Garden rep has been decided?"
- Yeah
- Yeah
- True
- No way
- You going for secret kid of the rep or something?
- And the rep already declared an official wife too ㄷㄷㄷ
"Oh, not bad! Not bad at all! Sounds good? I'm doing it—secret daughter of the rep!"
And so Jjining decided on the secret child of the rep concept.
She immediately moved her character to where the current Yorang Garden rep was.
She'd worried it might take forever to find him at first.
But no need—she heard he was enjoying judge duties at divorce court.
So she headed straight there.
Right after.
"Dad... I finally found you, Dad!"
She jumped straight into RP the moment they met.
-"...If you're my daughter, seduce four guys and prove your purity that way."
She got hit with an unexpected counter right away.
"Eh, huh?"
- LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO
- LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO
- Mungki ain't your average low-tier
- How's a low-tier become GTA mega-collab server rep?
- Jjining snap out of it you're getting wrecked already
- Dude ain't on the level you can seduce with beauty traps anymore
The viewers reveled in it while Jjining panicked.
"Ah, no, Dad! I really am your daughter! I have the family registry...! I'm confident in the paternity test too! I'm your daughter! Daughter! Real daughter! Is this how you treat me?"
Jjining had enough streaming experience to ad-lib through this.
She even thought she'd handled it pretty successfully.
Scolding a dad who's suddenly tormenting his long-lost real daughter.
What a smooth RP flow that was.
But her opponent.
-"Fuck, when a guy's made it big, he's bound to have one or two illegitimate kids, so what...? You should be grateful to me—you got my genes."
-"I'm nice enough not to bill you for 'em. But hey, where's your mom? You in touch?"
-"I'm saying this 'cause I really loved her—tell her I wanna see her again."
-"And don't show your face till you've seduced four guys, got it? Oh, and I don't trust paternity tests. I trust my blood... the talent in this blood."
- Is this real dialogue a human says?
- RP is straight savage?? LMAOOOOOOOOOO
- Jjining why'd your words freeze up
- Eyes got huge from shock lololololol
"...."
It was 'real.'
+++++
- You psycho lolololololol
- Your own daughter and you talk like that? lololololol
- Just straight-up 'fuck off' energy lolololol
- What'd you expect, saint dad?
- Don't... rush into paternity tests
"If you're the Yorang Garden rep's daughter, you gotta grow up tough. Lions push their cubs off cliffs too, right? You know Kazama? Tekken, that grandpa gets tossed, kid gets tossed, kicks a stroller and steals someone else's formula."
- Pls you're not a lion
- So brazen I almost believed it wasn't illegitimate lolololol
- Dude so deadpan 'prove your purity' I was shocked
- Mungki this RP right? 😭 Yeah? Not based-on-true-events horror?
- This ain't turning into Mung-server tragedy is it? 😭
- Mung-op♥ So cool kicking even his own kid no mercy
"No, I didn't kick... People might think I'm abusive."
- Ttarandda donates 1,000 won. Thank you.
[That gene fee bullshit—does no brain wrinkles make you say that? lololololol]
- Bints-kkwlgoguma tastes so good donates 1,000 won. Thank you.
[Pls don't do face value stuff just live like this forever stay our Mungki pls]
- Mungki-ya-madu-dasi-ha-ja-mitsu-jeol-go-go donates 1,000 won. Thank you.
[This is emotional abuse what abuse lolololololololol]
"Thanks for the donations. But I really mean what I say—your Mungki... nah, it's not abuse."
The RP hit hard outta nowhere so I countered just as hard.
Or so I thought—if she'd shown up claiming to be my daughter, she'd take at least this much.
'Figured she'd just say okay and ghost without a word.'
Does she not know Dad always packs an M7 on his chest?
If she tried any shady moves and spread weird rumors.
'I might have to end the line myself.'
Is this the pain and trials of being server rep?
Thinking that inwardly, I decided to do the most thrilling thing a rep could.
"Since I've become Yorang Garden rep, I'll check out these citizens' lives with my own eyes."
- Don't reps usually do this before votes?
- Fact) I-Mungnyong never did proper campaigning cuz he bought all the votes
- Didn't even know what citizens were up cuz he was busy seducing hospital director
- Loose trans) No interest in lower class lives, power bought with money
- 15 yrs from now pls kill I-Mungnyong 😭
- He'll shut server first lol
Checking citizens' lives wasn't much anyway.
Like, say, stopping by a tteokbokki shop.
"Business good?"
-"Do whatever Mungnyong wants."
"Ah, c'mon, praising the castle right off the bat?"
-"You stacked plenty."
"No, wtf you saying, wanna close shop?"
A quick back-and-forth using each other's RP for comedy.
-"...Mungnyong, remember we planned to see the sea?"
"Of course, that's why I came to the hospital."
-"But... I heard a rumor... you have a hidden daughter, true...?"
"Not hidden—she hid and came out. Don't worry, no need for details."
- Your daughter and you won't dig in wtf psycho lolololololol
- She hid then came out bullshit lolololololol
- What balls saying that to First Lady straight up??
- You even human??
- This RP right? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
- Too brazen it's ridiculous your daughter lolololol
- Pls dig into details 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
- Y'all hating too hard? Gave quest cuz happy to meet daughter why hate?
- Quest right after meeting hidden daughter: seduce 4 guys lolololol
-"...She's really your daughter, no need for details?"
Shocked viewers and my First Lady Leruri.
Can sparrows ever grasp the phoenix's will?
My character said nothing until we got in the car to the sea with Leruri.
They say there's comfortable silence and awkward silence.
I played some non-copyright BGM safe for MungTube.
And we headed to the sea in silence.
Whoosh.
The slow sound of waves crashing.
There, I slowly confessed my feelings to Leruri.
"No way that's my kid—just look, full-grown adult... I'm only 25, ages don't match."
-"...But what if it's a miracle?"
"Ah, that's impossible."
-"Okay, I'll believe you. But I got shocked, so I want some compensation?"
"Like what?"
-"I'm doing a concert... Super nervous. Could you come on stage and sing a song?"
- Gasp
- Gasp
- Sudden??
- Ttarandda† Never heard Mungki sing tho
- Revenge at concert??
- Mungki no this breaks RP just M7 her clean
- Can't take this
- Gotta top the fuck off? Making me wanna lol
- Gotta find good wife again?
- Haha sigh...
- Pink hair... so... pretty... shame... it's... gone...
Leruri, no.
Lera breaking RP a bit to speak—viewers panicked.
'Wait... this like that old thing? Kids, Mungki's got words?'
I panicked.
In RP world I was phoenix, but any crack and I'm low-tier.
Before me was real phoenix, living Lera, full Exodia parts, ace with no holes, S2 Botchi, undead Reze.
TL;DR: Heavenly Demon.
'Wants me to go full oni...? Join Demonic Cult... Blood Cult...?'
Sudden song request.
But thinking it over, huge redemption chance.
'Me who fucked up at Lera's concert... Invited by Lera, hop on stage and belt a tune clean?'
Great visual.
Haven't done karaoke in ~5 years but whatever.
Concert guests weren't all good singers anyway.
Comedy side existed too.
Conclusion: ham it up tone-deaf on purpose.
"I'll do it, sing."
- Ttarandda† Haven't sung in 3 years
- But noise okay? Can you even sing?
- Past claim) Told neighbors might be loud for streams, no one lives there...
- Mungki apt official) No one above below sides, kinda scary tbh
After ~20 secs hard brainwork, answer.
-"Okay, promise then? Trusting you, heading out first."
Hospital director, no.
First Lady-Leruri left after those words.
So I grabbed comms turn.
"Ah, now alone—hit 1k followers so subs open now? Will enable after stream before end... Appreciate interest."
- Uses polite only now
- Psycho
- Feels like cousin who ignores but bows for allowance money same vibe why
- Shameless prick
- Kill goldfish then beg subs? Fucker
- Mung-op donates 100,000 won. Thank you.
[ Mung-op♥♡♥♡ Been waiting just for subs deep Mung-kiss pls 😭 possible? ]
"100k thanks! Deep Mung-kiss incoming!"

'Exciting.'
Mid-thought.

[ Thx for taking my kid's sudden RP. But 4 guys too much she says, sorry but can you lower homework? ]
Not toxic broth bro—pure internet stream lover message hit heartstrings.
"Ah, Mukja bro... Was thinking same... Was I too harsh on my daughter? Telepathy synced! Adjusting difficulty now. True fan request too! Gotta take it! And hot-off-press deep Mung-kiss!"
Mmwahhhhhhh.

Why slander me who gets true fan hearts?
No clue.
Couldn't grasp.
Anyway.
Vroom.
Drove straight to daughter's spot.
"Daughter! Thought it over—went too far!"
-"Ah, Dad...!"
"Wrong thinking... Closest aide's true advice showed my folly!"
- True advice (100k)
- Fucker
- Ignores our curses tho
- Listen to Hardtack voice! Hardtack voice! Hardtack voice!
- Yep stay f2p wreck economy ㅇ
- How f2p staying wreck economy

-"So we family now...? Accepting me?"
"Ah, can't. Got First Lady... Was gonna send you Hawaii, that's why here."
-"Huh?"
- Psycho kid dad
- LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
- Muk-eunyoung... training fail
- Monkey fist?? Quest hard so ship off
- Want fave streamer comfy > Granted (to Hawaii)
"Joking, Dad'll intro Yorang Garden city."
-"Dad...!"
Handled sudden RP intrusion appropriately.
"...Ah, today too I... uh? Maintained Yorang Garden situation well."
- That line
- Ttarandda† Gross fuck why speech like that endstream?
- Too familiar now boring af
Stream end pose.
Did plenty.
Long enough.
"And if MungTube editor wannabe! Clipped VODs? From GTA Yorang Garden day 1 clip... Send day 1 VOD edit to biz mail."
- Polite now
- Polite when suits him/needs
- Knows when courtesy needed fuck
- Face-buys everything fuck
- Goldfish killer! Goldfish killer! Goldfish killer!
Good wrap.
Then.
"Moongba!"
- ㅁㅂ
- ㅁㅂ
- ㅁㅂ
That's it for today.
++++++
Next morning.
Turning on PC for stream prep.
Ding!
Biz mail alert.
'Editor maybe?'
Found in one day?
Didn't detail pay etc on community yet?
Mid-thoughts, hoped editor, opened.
[Subject: Mung-op♥♡♥♡♥♡ Couldn't wait for editor hiring notice trembling threw this early♥♡♥♡♥♡ Mung-op makes me tremble—you truly a man blessed with fortune♥♡]
"...Ah."
Despair instant.
"Hm?"
But.
"She actually sent edit vid...?"
No joke—attached real video.
Doubted but played.
"...Why's the edit so good again."
Despaired at radiant Gesaem talent once more.
Hope Gesaem not first and last applicant?
Prayed not, begged.
