Chapter Title: Even Jesus Took Three Days to Resurrect
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Even Jesus took three days to resurrect.
A temporary studio had been set up in one corner of the office.
The capital had always been more than sufficient. There'd simply been no need since Seol-a only streamed from home.
Manager Jeong Min-hee sat confidently in front of the camera after turning on the broadcast.
Even though the stream had launched under the account of a streamer who'd declared her retirement, viewers flooded in rapidly.
🔴 LIVE CHAT — Viewer1 Who's this pretty big sis??? — Viewer2 This chick looks different every time lololol — Viewer3 Didn't she quit streaming? The broadcast title that the manager had personally entered was [We're in crisis of ending up on the streets, please save us].
A few quick-witted viewers caught on to her identity right away.
— Viewer4 Manager? — Viewer5 Switching to manager simp starting today lol — Viewer6 Hmm... is she tho... She was definitely a beauty.
Class beauty queen level—easily top of the class in school terms.
Not the jaw-dropping, swoon-worthy kind.
But enough to inspire trust and affection in whoever saw her.
Smoothly, Jeong Min-hee's gaze swept over Seol-a's anxious expression and Seol-yun's icy blank face beyond the monitor.
The real stunners were over there.
Monsters that inspired not jealousy, but a sense of insurmountable walls.
"Hello. I'm manager Jeong Min-hee."
In just five minutes after going live, a staggering 6,000 viewers—an insane firepower.
Only then did Jeong Min-hee finally speak.
— Viewer7 Kiyaa — Viewer8 Are you inheriting Jeon Jeonseol? — Viewer9 How good is sis at Team-a? — Viewer10 Next up Jeon dddddd "Today's broadcast content is capturing the runaway streamer who declared she'd quit. In my view, public opinion wasn't that bad, but this hopeless girl says she's scared of the internet, so she just wants to apologize and quit. I need your help."
— Viewer11 Even Jesus took three days to resurrect... Legend revives in one day... — Viewer12 Jeon Jeonseol come out! — Viewer13 Aw lol it wasn't even controversy, why quit lol — Viewer14 Legend's just a baby, gotta protect her... — Viewer15 Jeon Ba Seol Bo — Viewer16 You can't just cut off friends over some issue, right? — Viewer17 Money ran out in a day lololol — Viewer18 Missing that 1k punch? "Alright, let's start with a vote. If you think streamer Jeon Jeonseol should come back, type 1 in chat. If not, type 2."
— Viewer19 1111111111111111111 — Viewer20 1 — Viewer21 What a colorful bullshit artist — Viewer22 1 — Viewer23 2 — Viewer24 Please come back!!!!! — Viewer25 11111 Seol-a was checking the broadcast chat on her computer from the opposite side of Jeong Min-hee.
A masochist with a mentality that shattered even worse than a certain ○○das, deliberately hunting for 2s amid the overwhelming flood of 1s.
Yet because she kept her eyes open instead of closing them, she could clearly see with her own two eyes just how many people wanted her back.
"High participation rate. Total 9,000 votes. 98.2% in favor of return. Isn't that enough to just come back?"
During the five minutes of voting, the chat was on the verge of exploding.
Viewership had ballooned in the meantime, surpassing 15,000 people joining in.
There were contrarians who wanted to go against the tide whether joking or serious, but once people learned how fragile Seol-a's mentality and glass mental were, the support poured in massively.
"To the 1.8% who voted against—you gonna take responsibility? If our streamer quits, I become unemployed. You gonna take responsibility for my life?!"
— Viewer26 Let's get married then — Viewer27 I'll take responsibility lmao — Viewer28 Wait, can I change my vote? — Viewer29 Found my soulmate "No, that's not what I—"
The manager's first blunder—she hadn't anticipated just how thirsty viewers were for pretty girls!
"I love this job! No real work, super easy labor, frequent remote days, great pay! It's a godsend job!"
— Viewer30 Sis was Lupin with the salary? — Viewer31 Shit hire me there too — Viewer32 Jeon Jeonseol trait: just has tons of money lololol — Viewer33 Must make her return! "Anyway, I'm definitely making our streamer come back, so if you've got complaints, bring it on!"
True to her word, Jeong Min-hee was properly tanking.
All the hate from people—she'd take it herself.
Viewers watched her volunteer as an arrow sponge and thought:
With a subordinate like that, isn't it already a successful life?
And such loyal retainers don't just appear out of nowhere.
Only someone with scorching charisma that captivates others gets them.
— Viewer34 mo mo — Viewer35 Gasp! — Viewer36 Info: Jeon Jeonseol likes girls — Viewer37 Sharp yuri senses — Viewer38 This is yuri even if it kills me — Viewer39 Until the universe ends in heat death — Viewer40 Alpes stop!!! "Stooop..."
Only those with sensitive ears or volume cranked up could hear it.
The broadcast owner's voice, caught faintly by the mic from far away.
"I deceived people, so why aren't they mad?"
— Viewer41 She's scammed so much they just shrug — Viewer42 She's always been an airhead bitch fr — Viewer43 Stalkers are scary — Viewer44 But was this chick drunk and disguised back then? Hilarious lololol — Viewer45 TL;DR: Same as her usual behavior Exactly.
If a normally diligent person suddenly shows up late, or a kind, honest image gets exposed for lying, people unleash fierce criticism.
But for someone who's always been a total delinquent, one more slip-up is just "eh, typical" and they move on.
In other words, the law of the irredeemable delinquent possession genre.
Possess a delinquent's body, skip the booze and women-chasing, and your rep skyrockets—everyone freaks out in surprise.
Seol-a had so many scam priors that people just went "her again?" and weren't shocked this time either.
Plus, her final pre-retirement stream had been passing out from a panic attack while watching anime.
People thought: She's got some serious issues, poor thing.
They could accept it that way.
"Must be because I'm pretty."
Seeing chats like <Forgiven instantly upon seeing face>, Seol-a nodded in understanding.
Pretty really is invincible.
It's widely known even murderers get lighter sentences if pretty—let alone something barely a crime.
Finally mustering courage, Seol-a approached the corner of the cam screen.
Today's wig: red twintails.
At this point, was she just enjoying wig swaps?
"Hello."
— Viewer46 Face changes every damn time — Viewer47 Jeon Jeonseol! Jeon Jeonseol! Jeon Jeonseol! Jeon Jeonseol! Jeon Jeonseol! — Viewer48 You grace us, queen of girl cams... — Viewer49 Girl? Cam — Viewer50 What retirement lol turn on Team-a quick — Viewer51 The more I see her the more her mental's adorably trash — Viewer52 Is she a hair salon model? Hair changes every time ◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ The return stream went off without a hitch.
There were surely some who hated Jeon Jeonseol's comeback and wanted to block it, but as a tiny minority, they were buried instantly under the massive viewer firepower.
Manager Jeong Min-hee thought:
This idiot who declared retirement without facing the issue head-on actually loves streaming, right?
Otherwise, why would her dull complexion brighten up instantly in front of the camera?
Judging her: elementary low-grader level problem-solving and mentality.
Middle-grader maybe? Nah, that'd be overrating.
Appearance-wise, generously calling her middle-schooler.
Was this what they meant by mind following body?
'So cute. Makes me wanna raise one at home.'
It was a great job she didn't want to lose, sure—but Jeong Min-hee pushed this hard because she wanted to see Seol-a smile.
She loves streaming, viewers love Seol-a—what a ridiculous farce to suddenly quit.
Stepping aside for Seol-a, Jeong Min-hee checked community reactions.
She came across a suspicion post someone had uploaded.

But Jeong Min-hee could hardly believe Seol-a was a student at a place like that.
That elementary-school mental, hopeless avoidant personality kid?
