Chapter Title: Paddling Under the Surface

Usually, viewers tune into streams to watch the broadcast.
They don't drop into some no-name channel just to spam reports.
As a result, the viewers' attention was scattered all over the place.
『What's this? What's this? What's this? What's this? What's this? What's this? What's this?』
『Rekka channel?』
『What crazy stunt is this lololol』
『Fr, what's that? Can streams expose other streams like this?』
『Chat's too fast, slow it down』
『Set up the stream already』
The influx of new viewers mixed with the regulars quickly turned the chat into chaos.
In that environment, chats like 'Report this channel go go' getting buried was only natural.

【What malicious crap is this time?】
So this time, he wrote it big and bold on the whiteboard again.
[Report this channel plz]
Report it.
『?』
『???』
『Wtf is channel report fake?』
『???』
『What's today's stream?』
Viewers who couldn't make sense of the sudden turn.
But some of the sharper ones caught on quick.
『Content switched to Rekka purge stream?』
『Yura Rekka』
『Huh? Yura Rekka vid deleted』
Most who'd seen the Yura Rekka clips figured out it was the channel Third Life had called out.
Third Life was now gunning to bury the Rekka channel ripping off Yura's stream.
The stream even kindly walked them through reporting.
Click.
Click the top of the channel.
Select channel report.
Any option that pops up after works fine.
The Rekka had scraped so many vids, every choice fit.
Report done.
Easy, right?
Now even the slow ones got it.

【Coords legit?】
This was straight-up dropping coordinates.
Normal streamers don't tag other channels.
More like, they can't.
Drop coords carelessly, and you might end up in a 1v1 deathmatch with whoever gets jumped first.
Or spark a flood of drama.
Why risk it?
Unlike image-conscious regular streamers, Third Life had no such baggage.
Why did Third Life stream?
To drop advice more comfortably.
That was it, nothing more, nothing less.
If he had to pick another reason? For the lulz.
Streaming had its own fun.
The flood of attention and reactions per kill.
Pure dopamine heaven.
But that's all it was.
So Third Life could pull off what others couldn't on stream.
For a streamer just starting out irregularly, without even proper broadcasts, what others envied most was his overwhelming spotlight.
Third Life always commanded attention.
And dragging a Cyber Leech he already hated in front of that spotlight?
Viewers swarmed the coords.
『Gogogogo』
『Damn, unity OP』
『When else you gonna see this lolololol』
Cyber Leeches' crimes were old news, public hate targets—no hesitation.
Some for fun, some Yura fans, some just 'cause he said so, hit report.
[This channel has been suspended.]
Suspension followed naturally.
Mitube ignores reports most times, channels stay up.
But this one got nuked for real.
Meant a ton of reports flooded in.
Yura got the notif, hopped in, learned the saga, and was touched.
"Oh..."
This was kinda heartwarming?
Thought he was just a toxic advisor, guess not.
Still my fan, though.
She barely got one vid down, but he went further, wiping the whole channel for a while.
Sure, maybe he was just annoyed, but after the vid delete, nuking the channel screamed fan service.
Yura didn't know Third Life already knew the vid was gone—she assumed otherwise.
If he did, he'd have confirmed she handled it and just spectated the drama, no stream needed.
And her misconception stung hard.
Viewers cheered the suspension.
Their assault crushed the Cyber Leech channel.
『Damn』
『Firepower insane』
『Potted it in the end lolol』
『lololol』
『Feels so good』
While everyone raised a toast,
some voiced doubts.

【Channel's gone, now what?】
His usual routine: done = stream off, randomly.
Valid question.
Now what?
Asking the obvious.
Wiped the board, wrote new.
[Purge Day Yura Wait]
That was it.
[Broadcast has ended.]
Third Life killed the stream.
Mission accomplished, no point wasting electricity.
"......"
Black screen.
Yura's face reflected on it.
This familiar pattern.
Again, again, again.
Abandoned them all again.
Mentioning her at the end.
'Today's stream's screwed.'
Like the saying, even a school mutt recites poetry after three years.
Yura could foresee the future after just a few rounds.
Stream today? Chat inferno.
But it was regular stream day—too late to announce a break.
Her touched vibes shattered.

Meanwhile.
The ditched viewers poured into the community with full firepower.
Firepower converged, community buzzed as usual.
Mostly posts about Armchair Seat's antics today.
From Yura-Armchair Seat shipbait,
to brainrot reflections.
Business as usual in the chaos.
Cyber Leech posts inevitable—today's main event.
Protecting someone's tough.
Bashing? Easy.
Especially leeches.
As sentiment against Rekkas ignited negatively,
one user dropped the obvious question.
Yura's(?) stray spark,
launched massively by Third Life,
met viewers and exploded.
Hate for leeches reignited by Yura stream theft,
old grudges lingered.
Viewers high on dopamine from slaying Cyber Leeches.
Firepower still hot.
Nah,
community users piled on, amplified.
Thus.
The Cyber Leech hunt kicked off.
One unaware party pondered.
'Potato chips or wedges today?'
Snack for Academy too—decision dragged.
While community waged war.
