Chapter Title: A New Pad and Tender Rewards

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I donated 10,000 won to the donation box.

I headed to a real estate agency.

"You're looking for a one-room rental?"

"Yes."

I checked out several one-rooms.

The cleanliness of the one-rooms varied wildly.

Clean one-rooms.

Average one-rooms.

Filthy one-rooms.

The sizes varied just as much.

Pretty spacious ones.

Average sizes.

Tiny ones like goshiwon rooms.

"Boss, I'll take this one."

"Oh?! Wise choice. The building's clean, and at 7 pyeong, it's just right for one person."

It was Happy Villa. A one-room, 7 pyeong wide. Only two years old. Plenty of sunlight. The furniture was spotless—I liked it.

'Deposit 3 million won, monthly ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠rent 330,000 won, management fee 50,000 won... A bit pricey, but...'

It wasn't a huge burden.

'I'm not broke or anything... I've got skills... A little flex like this is fine.'

There was no reason to skimp and insist on some cramped, rundown dump just to save a buck.

I met the landlord and signed the contract. I transferred the deposit and broker fee using my salary plus severance pay.

I adjusted my schedule.

Tomorrow, I'd head to the orphanage to volunteer.

Truth be told, my reason for volunteering.

Was less about goodwill and more about racking up merit points.

'Gotta study up.'

I had plans to grab dinner with Choi A-young.

We'd meet at 6 p.m.

About an hour to spare.

I studied video production and editing.

Watched tutorial videos and dove into reference books.

'Hmm... Down the line... Starting a company that specializes in YouTube videos doesn't sound half bad...?'

Time for our meetup approached. I left the dorm in light clothes and headed to the Burger King where Choi A-young worked.

"Today I'm feelin' somethin' simple. How 'bout toast and a mocha?"

Choi A-young's little act of consideration.

"Toast? Nah, not really. Let's get tteokbokki. Craving some chadol tteokbokki."

"Oh?! Awesome!! I'll show you the spot with the best chadol tteokbokki."

Choi A-young's face lit up.

"Follow me!"

Choi A-young grabbed my hand and led the way.

We chatted over chadol tteokbokki.

"Um, I'm quittin' the Burger King gig. Gonna focus on streaming."

"Why? To stream more hours?"

"Nah? I'm keepin' streams to exactly 6 hours a day. From 7 p.m. to 1 a.m."

She planned to quit Burger King and boost her practice ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠time.

Watch and analyze pro gamer footage, study high-rank League masters' guides, play various champs to build overall game knowledge and mastery.

"I wanna make bank."

Choi A-young wanted to get rich.

Live without money worries.

"For a faceless streamer like me, there's two big ways to rake it in. One: Stream consistently. Two: Git gud."

Pacing was key to consistent streaming.

She'd cap at 6 hours to manage condition.

Endless improvement and growth were musts to blow up.

More practice for overwhelming skill.

"Oh! Right! I saw your YouTube vid. You did great!"

"Yeah? Any rough spots? Shortcomings? Areas to tweak? Annoying bits?"

"Nothin' really? Honestly, it wasn't some pro-level masterpiece, but it wasn't trash either."

BGM was the weak point?

Time to put more care into background music.

"When's part 2 droppin'?"

"Thinkin' tonight."

"Ooh, can't wait."

Choi A-young nibbled on a fish cake.

Munch munch.

"Wanna hit the beach."

"The beach?"

Nod.

"Missin' the sea."

"Wanna go to the beach together?"

Choi A-young looked up.

Our eyes met.

"Grab a night away? One night, two days?"

"One night, two days...?"

"If that's too much, day trip's cool too?"

"One night, two days... Sounds good."

What was going through her head?

Choi A-young's face turned beet red.

We promised to hit the beach soon.

"Oppa, beach tomorrow?"

"Sorry. Got orphanage volunteer stuff—too packed."

"Huh? Volunteerin'? ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠Let's go volunteer tomorrow?"

Nod nod.

"Whoa? Volunteerin'?! That's so cool!"

"Dunno about cool, but it'll feel rewarding."

"Nuh-uh, super cool. Seriously impressive."

I scratched my cheek with my index finger.

But it wasn't really for good intentions...

Over 90% for merit points.

Goodwill was maybe 10%...

All this praise was embarrassing.

Felt awkward getting misunderstood.

"My oppas such a good boy."

Choi A-young beamed.

"Gotta give you a reward?"

Reward?! Reward?!

My heart raced. I was insanely excited. Breathing got heavy.

Merit pouch hurray!

Small happiness random box hurray!

Era of Success forever!!

We finished eating.

'Hm?'

The guy walking ahead.

His wallet slipped from his back pocket and rolled across the ground.

Earphones in?

Blasting music?

He didn't notice a thing.

"Excuse me—."

No response.

"Hey—!"

I picked up the wallet and ran up, handing it to him.

"Huh?!"

The guy stopped. Pulled out his earphones.

"You dropped your wallet."

"Oh?! Thank you so much."

I returned his wallet.

Not expecting anything in return.

Just the right thing to do.

Scored some unexpected merit points.

"Jin-seong oppa."

I turned around.

Choi A-young gave a thumbs up.

Thumbs up!

Boobs?! Butt?!

Anticipation swelled.

We arrived at Choi A-young's place. I sat on the sofa. She climbed onto my lap and delivered the reward.

A praise sticker on my forehead.

A kiss on the lips.

Then she licked my neck.

"A-young... Can I touch your boobs...?"

"You wanna touch my boobs?"

"Yeah. Wanna touch 'em. Suck 'em."

Choi A-young's face went beet red.

She hesitated.

"...Okay."

Very slowly.

She peeled off her yellow crop top herself.

Snow-white bra, huge breasts, dizzying cleavage ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠revealed.

She was a virgin.

Never shown her breasts to any guy.

Taking off the bra herself felt too much, too embarrassing.

"So pretty."

My hand moved. Deftly unhooked the bra.

The bra hit the floor. Breasts exposed.

"Whoa—?! Amazing. Really pretty."

"...Pretty?"

"Yeah. Big, white, perfect."

Her frame was a tad smaller than Park Ha-yeon's.

But her breasts were a smidge bigger.

Breasts like small melons.

Too much for one hand.

Cute pink nipples.

'Fuck... So damn pretty and sexy...'

I grabbed her breast.

'Whoa... Texture is insane...!!'

If Park Ha-yeon's were soft and squishy.

Choi A-young's were plush and jiggly.

Supreme jiggle perfection.

'Skin's all jiggly... Breasts jiggly... Ass probably jiggly too... Jiggly is the best.'

I sucked on Choi A-young's breast.

Slurp. Smooch. Slurp. Suck. Smack. Slurp. Chuuup.

Lick with tongue. Suck with mouth.

Breasts glistened with saliva.

"Haa... Jin-seong oppa... Feels weird..."

"Tastes good."

"Ahh... Eat lots... Haa..."

"Mhm."

"Nooo. Not the butt."

When I gripped her ass.

Choi A-young pulled her butt back.

Gotta respect A-young's feelings. Hands off the butt.

Focused on the breasts.

I logged into YouTube 'Lilith World'.

[Wardless Mid Lane Domination #Ahri Edition (1)]

Checked the stats.

Only part 1 up so far?

Stats were pretty meh.

Checked comments.

Comments were mostly positive.

Uploaded the second video.

[No-Item Start: Shredding Enemy Syndra #Ahri Edition (2)]

Put extra effort into the BGM for part 2.

'A-young's...'

Checked on Choi A-young.

Deep in her stream. Gaming and chatting at once.

Solid viewer count.

Hovering around 130.

Promo power? Cute voice? Adorable persona? Good engagement? Skill?

Few female gamers as mains? Girl crushing games?

Couldn't pinpoint why.

But her stream was popping off.

[LilyT: 5-win streak? 50 gold donation!]

[SoundBug: Matching 50 gold!]

[ItsMyGold: Me too, 50 gold!!]

[GangnamLoser: 500 gold from me!]

Raking in gold like crazy.

Promo in live chat.

"Mi-yeon, good morning!"

"Yes, good morning."

"Here—your coffee."

"Thanks."

Mi-yeon took the paper cup.

Took a sip.

Fairy-like smile.
