The sudden outburst of Karen was cute.

Well, no matter how you see it, she was a stalker after all.

Of course she would at least confess.

To be loved by a super beauty like that…

If this weren’t an isekai, he definitely would have a more plain look than us…

His face is plain even in the isekai.

He hides in the shadows.

No, look at that happy face of Rifreya-sama.

This world is filled with women who easily invite you to hotels, you know?

The chastity of Hikaru is in danger.

Right, it is a society with gender equality (in a sexual meaning)…

-253: Anonymous from Earth

The rate of a young man and woman ending up like that is super high after all.

This is bad…

That’s why Karen must have gone to wake up Celica.

Aren’t the chances of that happening high even in our modern world?

She did talk about a previous episode where Hikaru was made to drink alcohol by his drunk parents after all.

He was all tipsy and cute, was it? I don’t really understand the view of women.

No, those tears will obviously get you.

They apparently had intelligence that would easily allow them to graduate from college when they were still elementary school students after all.

Even their teachers must have been careful with them.

Doesn’t Hikaru have poison resistance?

He seems to be decently drunk here though.

-274: Anonymous from Earth

You apparently are stronger to alcohol with poison resistance, but it doesn’t make it impossible for you to get drunk.

And, even when drunk, when the time requires it, you will be ditoxified immediately.

It has already been proven.

-275: Anonymous from Earth

That’s some impressive poison resistance.

Well, we are talking about a power created by God, so it is a matter of course I guess.

-276: Anonymous from Earth

Not being able to get drunk at all is nothing but a demerit after all.

There isn’t that much entertainment in an isekai, so it would be way too rough to take alcohol out from one of them.

-277: Anonymous from Earth

By the way, if it does make you stronger to alcohol, that must mean…Hikaru-kyun was originally ultra weak to alcohol…

There’s the possibility that he became this straightlaced because of how extraordinary Celica and Karen are though.

I think it is also the craziness of their parents that we can get a peek at from the conversations of the twins though.

-312: Anonymous from Earth

Anyways, Rifreya-chan is really aggressive.

She also has stalker tendencies, so maybe she is a yandere?

-313: Anonymous from Earth

The women there are pretty much like that, you know?

Because there’s Spirit Energy in that world, there’s no difference between men and women in terms of ‘power’.

That’s why it is completely normal for women to invite men.

There’s a whole lot of women in the army too.

There’s even a decent amount of cases where women are at the top of a country.

The 1st place award is a resurrection item, huh…

So that’s what’s making Hikaru panic…

Announcement for everyone on Earth! From tomorrow on for 2 weeks, the first Viewer Count Race will begin! We have prepared super wonderful prizes for the Chosen who gather the most attention from the viewers in the span of the event! The big prize for this most auspicious 1st competition is the Resurrection Gem! This is a special item that is impossible to obtain on Earth or the parallel world! Who will be the one taking the glory of 1st? Please root for your favorite Chosen even more than ever!

Are they doing it on purpose knowing that Hikaru is suffering from the matter of Nanami-chan? Was that resurrection gem taking that in consideration?

You are overthinking it.

Reviving the dead is a dream-like item for the entirety of humanity.

You can even use it for when a party member dies, right?

Isn’t it basically like the leaf of the World Tree?

The announcement was exactly at 12 standard GMT.

Hikaru’s location has a time difference of 9 hours, so it is the same time as Japan. In other words, it is 9:00pm.

And the Viewer Count Race begins tomorrow at 0 o’clock.

Where Hikaru is, that would be 9:00am.

-347: Anonymous from Earth

[Important] It is Twin/Sis. From today to two weeks, we will be stopping the making of highlight videos. Instead, the two of us will be in rotations watching the main broadcast of Hikaru for 24 hours and doing real time translations.

Nanami-oneesan is basically family for us.

If Onii-chan is going to be doing his best to revive her, we will also be backing him up with everything we’ve got. Everyone, please watch the main broadcast and bring our brother to 1st place.

Please…please provide us with your cooperation.

“I will explain to the viewers just in case. I think Onii-chan is going to be using the beauty of Rifreya-san here to get 1st place. That’s why he suddenly invited her to become a party member.He is most likely thinking that he will be doing anything for the sake of reviving Nanami-oneesan…or something along those lines, but he is kind by nature, so I feel like they will just be flirting here though…Whichever the case, Nanami-oneesan is family. If our brother is aiming for 1st place, we plan on backing him up with our all… You all, follow along, got it?”

I love you, Celica!

Hikaru instantly made advances on Rifreya-sama. That’s impressive.

It is pretty difficult to reach a decision in that scenario and go away without the sex.

-356: Anonymous from Earth

Even though he was getting completely overwhelmed just a few moments ago, it was as if a switch suddenly flipped on Hikaru.

-357: Anonymous from Earth

Yeah, the sex will be able to give him viewers, so he booked it in order to increase the hype for that day, huh.

What an idiot.

He obviously would get more viewers if he were to have sex everyday.

-358: Anonymous from Earth

That’s difficult for a virgin. Also, this might be unexpected, but those types of streams don’t really increase the viewers that much.

See Jeanne-chan. Even though she is dead stalwart with none of those elements, she is still super popular.

-359: Anonymous from Earth

Jeanne-chan is completely a hero stream, so that’s way too special of a case.

She would enter an abandoned castle that has become a natural dungeon all on her own and would mutter stuff like ‘It reminds me of Boletaria…’. [Note: Demon’s Souls reference.]

What a crazy rate. Well, this is betting on about more than 700 people, so of course it would turn out like that, huh…

Even if the rates are high, looking at the lifestyle of Hikaru, the chances really are like winning the lottery…

The ‘next’ part is really the deal breaker after all.

It can’t be helped that the rates for the people with low chances would increase.

It was advanced, but it was pretty easy to understand.

Being able to do such complicated processing with just a few lines of simple code was as expected of her, but the teaching of Karen was way too peculiar. ‘You do this, and it becomes this, and walah!’…don’t give me that.

By the way, the exclusive advanced course was seriously impossible to understand, so I felt the danger when I saw that one.

Those twins were editing the videos of Hikaru while going to school, doing livestreams, and on top of that, analyzing the official website too.

The audio commentary version is now using more livestream audio than before though. Well, that way feels like a raw reaction, so it is bene though.

-395: Anonymous from Earth

What’s this about analyzing the official website?

-396: Anonymous from Earth

The parallel world transfer official website that we are looking at, there’s no knowing where the servers are located at, or with what logic it is displayed, and yet, it can be seen from almost any computer terminal. Whether it be TVs, smartphones, and of course PCs. Moreover, even though there’s concentrated traffic of billions from the whole world, it hasn’t crashed, or even lagged.

We can just brush it off as this being the deed of God, but when something’s not known, it is in the nature of researchers to investigate it. It seems like there’s almost no progress at all though.

-397: Anonymous from Earth

I myself push the theory that there’s actually no physical servers, and all of humanity is hallucinating enmasse.

There it is! The hallucination theory!

Well, that’s just how unbelievable of a situation it is.

-399: Anonymous from Earth

Just how much are Celica and Karen earning?

-400: Anonymous from Earth

They are most likely in the millions in monthly income. There’s basically no highlight videos of Hikaru aside from the ones of Twin/Sis, so not only do they get viewers from the whole world, they are also properly doing the translated versions to perfection. They are lined up as the top together with Ikakin in Japan.

They said they would even be making dubbed versions using voice actors. Those girls are fearsome…

Considering the specs, those twins would have been able to earn as much money even without their brother. That’s just how outstanding they are.

What’s going to happen?

-409: Anonymous from Earth

This is just me assuming, but Twin/Sis are most likely the ones who are the most serious when it comes to backing up an individual.

The big companies don’t throw their money to just one person alone, so isn’t this going to go pretty well? Even if not, Hikaru has gotten 1st place before.
