Chapter Title: Year-End Was Amazing
-----------------------------------------------------------------
(One Week of VTuber Performances)
Every VTuber from around the world really showed up.
The president provides models just for signing up, even for Hakko.
Wakamo coolly assigns MC roles to those who can't sing.
The merch was insanely plentiful...
(Clips from the finale concert)
These are the VTubers raised by Wakamo HQ!!
Truly emotional.
Started from absolute zero, diving headfirst with nothing.

[Title: Just the industry top, upvote]
VTuber megacorp but frugally run company.
President says leave work to experts.
President with prime ministers, presidents, speakers as underlings.
President running four countries.
President who could conquer the world if he wanted.
With that power and wealth, no greed beyond VTubers.
Even boldly invests without expecting returns, this fox.
-Real VTuber-only brain lololol
-Ah~ too annoying~ just handle East Asia, whatever.
-War schmar, people gotta be happy, right?
-If war breaks out, he'll sweep it himself lololol
-Believers, go farm and work.
-President who lets you get gf/bf.
-Just care for followers, why need power?
-Fr, our lives are worlds apart.
-Seen so many assholes, as long as no line crossed lolol.
-Couldn't stand it, unified Asia by force for peace.
-Figured they'd war again otherwise lolol
-Experience overflows lolololol
"Alright, next year too!! Don't get hurt, do what you want, do what you must. Buddhism says humans are all unhappy, but humans can be happy. VTuber streams are happiness."
"Our leader's all-purpose VTuber theory is perfect."
"VTuber demon, gonna have to write a thesis."
"I did."
The professor's quip over beer made Sadako and Aiba whip around with a real?
Showing Wakamo's seven actual VTuber theses darkened their faces.
No sleep, always studying or training—species-level difference.
Everyone says study steadily and effort, but doing it is another story.
Usually, losing senses, no sleep, inhuman body leads to mental stress or going weird.
But Wakamo's like, no sleep? Train and study instead. Catch up on anime. Positive otaku.
Lately, unbound by VTuber streams, back to otaku roots stacking culture via movies, anime, manga.
How tough for her underlings with such a boss?
President personally attached to each VTuber.
Not enough, Kang Yeoul and Lia handling managers and producers separately.
Won Da-hye clinked glasses with the association chair: without climber status, she'd be dead long ago.
Post-glamorous hot concert, 『Wakamo Floor 2』 transformed into year-end party venue.
Russian tower lord and architect collab: venue from pool to casino, every facility imaginable.
From hot springs to luxury hotel-level lodging, booze piled enough for Sadako a week.
"Glug glug, guuuulp."
Sadako chugging a tank of booze two-handed.
Watching, Kwonwang pondered where his daughter went wrong.
21, full adult, can't nag drinking.
But qualifying powers 2x, 200 million liters by type, 10k kinds—inhuman realm?
Aiba thought herself special as psychic, but relieved and scared she's ultra-normal.
How's a VTuber agency have so few sane ones?
Wakamo said VTubers need clueless directions and dumb sides, but majority abandoning humanity? No, thought Aiba.
"Sis, concert good?"
"Hao."
Need more words?
Avant-garde itself, praised Xiao Liang with oxygen mask for Yu Ying.
Concert injury overload, severe qi deviation, barely mobile.
Yung Wei assisting, but excess love problematic sometimes.
Amelia's dad and uncle: overkill love.
Rewatching niece/daughter concert, praising, researching improvements, tracking haters' addresses... Aska barely stopped them gunning.
"Satisfied!!"
Olga beamed.
Dmitri president joyful: ex-human weapon experiment girl found life's happiness, achieved dream.
Couldn't invite, but 『Duelist』 posted community hype.
Wakamo's no-sleep self-abuse album 4 finally idol-tiered her.
VTuber songs on music shows special. Wakamo effort, but Iosif Khan fans exploded.
Post-Inari fox god enlightenment, VTuber president life smoothing, Wakamo auto-smiled.
Everyone happy!!
Concert success, fans thrilled, ads pouring!!
Merch sold out, new songs hot, group tracks praised!!
Luxury year-end with friends/staff, no incidents, all max fun—but!!
"So, aimed at Tower of Babel top boss?"
"Yeah? Magic mind-controlled, sealed 【Record】 wholesale."
Recalling, Wakamo pondered boss swap listening to Robert.
Immediately changed Babel Tower climb conditions: no exploits, impossible entry.
But not safe enough, Wakamo worried more.
97th Mei Shaolongbao clueless, tamed before realizing.
Korean tower boss chats climbers, fights non-lethal.
Never dreamed summoner tame.
Coldly: boss still monster.
No guarantee can't capture, familiarize.
"Top boss tameable?"
"Alzheimers?"
"Damn, possible."
Inari fox god eyed dementia, Wakamo forehead-slapped sigh.
Planned blackout drunk fun games yelling, damn guardians!!
'No, guardians backed by Nazis?'
Black curtain 【US Tower】, hiding behind 【EU Federation】 supporting, breeding secret Nazi last battalion Antarctic?
Smarter than thought.
Truth out, sounds insane.
Even knowing: "US tower lord claims protecting world funding fake Nazi front, actually breeding last battalion Antarctic plotting!!" Mental breakdown summary.
Need more truth.
"Wakamo-nim, checked gallery stored art—many fakes swapped!!"
"Damn, Adelheid! Why miss?"
"Ignored, left alone."
"True."
Not art, prison for sins, no reason Adelheid care.
Locked engineers? Daily checks... too late.
"Definitely that Yu Ying kidnapper corpse art."
"Anti-theft bombs in art! Leave gallery, boom!"
"Russian mini nukes!"
"What our company aspire?"
Russian prez and Adelheid same-think prevention measures scared Wakamo wordless.
Anyway, steal = explode somewhere.
Then trackable, good?
"Now 【Authorities】 alive moving, world rough."
And there!
Wakamo: know, no fix, alert nations only.
Mere Korean climber VTuber, no auth hunt unknown Nazis.
No identity, detect only post-attack, endless pains.
At least 『Wakamo Layer』 minimal safe?
Tower could assault anytime, requested architect defenses.
"Today forget all, drink and party!!!"
""""Yeeeeah!!!!""""
Wakamo raised glass, all ignited year-end fest.
Mixed genders, worry hookups? Clones attached prevent.
Aiba glaring, but popularity up, dating later fine.
Fans beg no grad for dating, bring kids continue VTubing—hold till then.
"Waa~"
Amelia sparkling eyes at buffet.
3 min per sushi, but stacking plate.
Russian tower lord helped, masterpiece done.
[Mediator] warmly watched "Nom nom!" Amelia.
"Bad say, but invite me right?"
"Steady talent sender to East Asia Federation, year-end must."
"Really?"
Farmer fisher maid—elsewhere homeless jobs.
Plus authority risk murder, needs safe haven.
[Luk Saegoe] spy count unknown even Mediator.
But more special 【Legendary Class】 surely coming.
"Enter tower evades my eye? No invite = affiliated or theirs."
"Invited enter too?"
"Yeah."
[Mediator] much on incident, worries galore?
All all-nighters boozing partying, she solo aside.
Wakamo sent invite via Russian lord, didn't expect.
[Luk Saegoe] folks awkward milling.
"『Idol』 special. No authority needed, class symbolic. Likely took 【Record】 post-East Asia loss. Got Babel info too."
"Ah..."
Forgot: opponents tower lords, tower-related.
Already have 『Wakamo Inarizushi』 data.
Needed solid sample, targeted top boss.
Regret fail, but [Mediator]: tower lords enemies, time war.
"【Authorities】 mixed egos, goal climb tower, god summit, result: authority climbers unconsciously climb. Obsession moves soulless bodies."
Destroy 『Ether Generator』, next gen auto gone, added.
Forgot peaceful world, but grudges haunt living, wry smile.
"My era called them 【Ascenders】. Vs 【Climbers】: no class, all rivals, mutual slaughter normal, life value for power only."
Excess deaths, meaningless sacrifices, no god guarantee, endless Idol kills for grudge/revenge cycle.
Thus moving 【Authorities】 want 【Ascension Tower】 return.
Reclimb, fulfill death conquest—forgotten selves, mixed nothing climbs.
"Humans idolize to authorities. Endless cycle climbs till god birth."
Hell days, someone decide, [Mediator] said.
"I traded my 【Authority】, blew tower with 【Record】 to future. Ultimate ladder pull."
Lost all, reset tower, rebuilt modern civ matching, confessed to Wakamo.
But Mediator position: only major past reshape.
Tower self-revert or choose change? Can't.
"Myth gods/legends monsters all real. Died not gods tho."
"Vampire hunter...? Card one."
"Dunno. Recorded to card? Existed? Note, Idol. Unrecorded tales more."
Relieved yet lonely.
Tower persist, no modern civ. Uncontrollable, manage modern as [Mediator].
"So tower from where?"
"Space? Moon? Sorry, tower since childhood."
Even [Mediator] origin unknown, too late, wry.
"One knowing truth fine? More Qs?"
"So past ascenders in authorities, undying survivors wanting old days, tower black curtain?"
"Spot on. I interfere via top ascender auth, all others dead, no one else can?"
Lingering unease, but she'll tell, ask.
"Authorities need qual, one user, so ether-only ascenders?"
"Your term 격체전공? Passed 【Ether】+【Authority】 itself for dynasty."
"Min teach use, theory?"
[Mediator] tough face, pondered.
Explain no use guarantee, no expect.
"Ether is soul-born power. Feel essence soul—hard. Soul why authorities shape owners, get?"
Soul not feel on want.
Explain control? All climb.
"Like this?"
"Yeah—how?!"
"VTuber is persona. Wanted inner self, ego. Concept grabs essence—usual sense works."
Used 【Authorities】, Wakamo body/soul separate usual.
Control mind=soul, handle that feel? Nailed, worked.
VTuber theory unrelated, grasped ether via knowledge.
Prof needed for quick get, nodded; [Mediator] stunned.
"Yeah, VTuber another self. Wanted me—concepts egos roles, separate persons. Thus VTuber(Idol) swaps authorities free!"
"Wait, sanity? Impossible, egos affect!"
"Clones have names concepts settings hobbies speech quirks, VTubing. Boosts ego, completes character no?"
No talk.
[Mediator] unspeakable horror/madness.
VTuber exposes mind inner ego soul, uses ether.
Split concepts independent personas, different authorities.
Mad theory, but all-purpose VTuber works, [Mediator] suffocating.
'Hidden cam? No normie?'
Korean tower profile lie sure.
[Mediator] doubted sanity, fox play?
Expected ether fail, unstable others' use → breakdown split madness.
But Wakamo: not single!! Split use!! VTuber personality boost profit~
Past ascenders tried multi, vessel ok but souls collapsed monstered.
Wakamo talk only, try realize, [Mediator] cold sweat inner.
Advised multi dangerous anyway.
"No authority, still use power?"
"Yeah, sense lingers? But no original hard. Qual tough."
YVlkZG9rK2RzZkF4NGpaUUhCUEhwUW4rZlVqdGlEM1VXOS9qaGZKZ1psQ2VDb21GRUNjSmxmVkhGSzZiWkdlOA
"Then I can?"
No way urge, but self-changed use scared speech.
If real?
"So real name, Mediator."
"???"
Lost era tongue—name, Wakamo nodded.
"Nanna huh. Matches Mesopotamian time god."
"Ah, climbers comprehend. Why know myths?"
"Otaku?"
"Huh?"
"Aha, indeed. Thus 【Time】 authority Cronus call. Era women low, Uranus dick cut myth hide woman self? Uranus fake?"
"...Uh, well~ no~t wrong~"
"Records shift god names. Otaku all games, story infer conf."
"Otaku related? Same era? That Eve or—"
"Fox god concept VTuber?"
"...You do Hebrew too."
"Sumerian too? Bored learned."
[Mediator] head hand. Past irrelevant, age too.
『Idol』 transcends human, long life—myths mixed names.
"?? ?? ??? ?? ??? ??? ??????? ?? ?????"
"No Sumerian!! Forgot!"
"מִקְוֵה כֹּחַ אָדַם בּשֶׁת ?"
"Uh—English?"
"Climber language gift only? Not ascender?"
"Ah"
Few words read [Mediator] bottom, Wakamo notepad observation.
Weird? Me older mystic 『Cursed King』?
Not Korean lie, tower duped?
Tower lord knows, uses as god-vessel 『Idol』?
VTuber ultra special cosmic truth mystery?
"Otaku level, R'lyehian too."
—Otaku unrelated?"
"Anyway, past mysteries history expert."
"Uh, yes?"
"Ascenders monopoly climb, solo. Climbers help party, support skills, mass unite vs foes hoped. Legendary classes worry repeat, direct auth manage?"
"...Yes?"
"World peace, civ sustain, people peaceful wish. Past ladder pull same reason?"
"Yes, right—ascenders class climb, weak sacrifice livestock."
Wakamo couch psychoanalyze, [Mediator] trauma poured.
Max human-help tower reform, climber mode change, edits limits for more survivors world.
Born-with 【Tower of Babel】.
Curse散 language loss ascenders, climbers normal gifts.
—Leaders lose again.
Tower ancient tradition.
"I know fix worries. Consult hard times, advice, no solo power, help get, comfy king待遇 life."
"Real teacher? Past future fears fix? Uncontrol tower remassacre worry max."
"All-solve here! Sign contract!"
Hypnotized Wakamo sales, auto-signed [Mediator].
Careful Nanna name, imagine bright future fun live, shoulder pat.
Sign instant clear head healthy energy motivated smile [Mediator].
Wakamo VTuber buff skill duh.
Nose-pierced pre-think, Wakamo grinned extra talent.
"Russian tower lord."
"[Yes?]"
"From today 2nd gen peer Nanna. Get along."
"[Huh?]"
"We got cultured high-edu VTuber!!"
Soul-left couch [Mediator], Russian lord eye-rolled grasp.
Too high diff anyway.
"[Wha, how?]"
"Unemployed grad, employed."
"[How?]"
"Fox charmed..."
God duped human myth real.
Rumor laugh-off Nanna.
Tower manager VTuber debuts beside.
World peace? Serenity?
Join VTuber.
All problems solved crisp!!
"Prof! Ether teacher fetched!"
"Really? Who?"
"Prof's ex-boss."
Do want, acquire.
Heard still doubted ears, Prof Sebastian blinked.
Joke? Laugh want, but soul-gone Nanna for ether class, Prof soul gone.
"2nd gen stacked."
Sadako vowed no defy juniors.
