It’s not that kind of malicious broadcast

『This sultry *cough*, real *cough*, ugh *cough*』

– There’s no way this wasn’t intentional

– Recording ON immediately

– This is just insane

– Has anyone leaked her photo yet?

『Title: Wanna Eat Mashup』

『(Video Attached)

I replaced the audio during her broadcast back then』

– OMG

– Wow……

– Aren’t you going to get sued?

– LOL, it’s her own broadcast, what lawsuit? LOLOLOL

– Technically, she didn’t give permission to distribute it, especially when you altered the voice…

– The person who uploaded it to GetTube would probably get sued LOL

『Title: GetDevoured Teacher Was ‘One of Us’』

『She usually wakes up at 6 PM

Practically a Neet’s life……

We were ‘one of us’』

– Too many records to dismiss it as a hoax LOLOLOL

– A pure girl proven by her forum activity and broadcast watching time……

– Honestly, it’s even harder to believe that GetDevoured is a girl

『Title: But What Was GetDevoured’s Previous Nickname?』

『It doesn’t make sense for a person like that to suddenly appear out of nowhere just 8 months ago.

It’s suspicious, with how she dominates both forum and streams』

– This is definitely fake

– But it’s impossible to find LOL, it’s so rare to see a master rogue

– Probably her main character wasn’t a rogue

– Right, she might have just made a sub character to play around with a rogue

– Sensitive about warriors, maybe?

『Title: I Think I’ve Realized Something』

『Our forum master always got suspicious whenever a warrior was mentioned.

She overreacted like a triggered button whenever warriors were involved.

But there shouldn’t be any reason for that LOLOLOL』
“Maybe it’s because the main character on the original account is a Warrior, and they’re trying to cover it up?

If we look through the battle records of Warrior rankers, we might be able to find the original nickname.”

Oh, that’s convincing.

Oh.

Hmm… Is it really that much?

If we narrow it down to Warriors who’ve done something to hide their nickname for a broadcast, we might figure it out?

ㄴ There’s a possibility.

『Title: What the hell is this』

『Rumor??? More than just a streamer and fan relationship????

GetDevoured and Dodat behind-the-scenes???』

She’s probably just crazy about Rogues, so I don’t think that’s it.

Is she really just a Rogue companion who got mad every time Holy Knights were played?

ㄴ Make some sense, damn it.

ㄴ These rationalizations are hilarious, LOLOLOL LOLOLOL LOL Even if they took a break and did it, it’d imply they ate chicken, right? Ridiculous LOLOLOL ㅌ

『Title: GetDevoured Dodat discussion interpretation』

『”Leaving a perfectly good Rogue behind.”

=] Leaving me, the legitimate partner, behind.

“Getting smitten by the Holy Knight.”

=] Cheating.

“Not to mention, looking at the Warrior.”

=] Maybe a one-night stand? But toned it down as distraction to not seem too pathetic.

“Blocked, so I can’t tell you directly.”

=] Kept clinging to Attaemogi even after being blocked by Dodat.

“You’ll do well. You’re doing well.”

=] Typical dumped woman pretending to be fine.

“To show you a changed Rogue…”

=] Trying to appeal that she’ll be different if they reconcile.

– Dodat is a total alpha male;;

– Who’s the Holy Knight, and who’s the Warrior? They all seem like streamers.

DodatGate ON』

– Don’t spout nonsense, you’re overinterpreting this, damn it.

– ㄴ Dodat talking about playing Rogue, Holy Knight, and looking at Warrior trees has nothing to do with cheating or one-night stand. Stop being ridiculous.
– ㄴㄴ LOLOLOL LOLOLOL LOLOLOL LOLOLOL LOLOLOL Why is it so funny seeing fans losing it? LOLOLOL LOLOLOL LOLOLOL

– ㄴㄴ Can’t trust female streamers with their faces revealed, but trust a Dullahan? Take it!

– I’m not even a fan, but it’s more likely she’s just crazy about Rogues.

– ㄴ How do you explain being blocked, then?

– ㄴㄴ If you consider the antics before GetDevoured started streaming, there are probably more than 10 streams where he got blocked.

– ㄴㄴ Info) Even watching Dodat’s replays, there’s a record of flooding chat asking to play Rogue.

– So who are the Holy Knight and Warrior?

– Was the girlfriend’s nickname Rogue? Is he really nuts?

“Title: Shit, Was Dodat a Three-Timing Alpha Male?”

“From what I’ve heard from DevourItAll, it seems like he juggled three relationships and dumped them all. What’s his secret, that youthful look?”]

– Info: If you look back at the review recordings, there’s evidence that DevourItAll was spamming requests for help from Dodat months ago. No one in the world spams their boyfriend’s broadcast like a crazy person.

– Yes, it does sound like something DevourItAll would do, even in her boyfriend’s broadcast…

“Ex-pli-ca-tion, Ex-pli-ca-tion, Ex-pli-ca-tion!”

– “The world’s worst man, Dodat…! The world’s worst man, Dodat…! The world’s worst man, Dodat…! The world’s worst man, Dodat…! The world’s worst man, Dodat…! The world’s worst man, Dodat…! The world’s worst man, Dodat…!”

– “If you don’t explain your relationship with my sister, I’ll shit myself.”

– “Die.”

– “I should also broadcast, I should also broadcast, I should also broadcast, I should also broadcast, I should also broadcast, I should also broadcast, I should also broadcast, I should also broadcast, I should also broadcast…”

– “What’s happening?”

– “Dodat, if you’ve seen it, tell me honestly, what cup size was it? Dodat, if you’ve seen it, honestly, what cup size was it? Dodat, if you’ve seen it, honestly, what cup size was it?”

– “Is Warrior Revan? Is Warrior Revan? Is Warrior Revan? Is Warrior Revan? Is Warrior Revan?”

– “Please die.”

– “Teacher, please check private chat!!!”

Recently, Lee Yena’s rapidly growing broadcasting channel had three main types of viewers. People originally from the KoK Forum. Viewers drawn in by the sensationalism of her first broadcast.

And troublemakers who visited frequently whenever rumors of drama spread and then stayed.

In other words,

Lee Yena’s broadcast was a confluence of cultures: one where viewers would insult and belittle each other if they didn’t speak in informal language, one where beating up the broadcaster was considered rewarding, and one focused solely on starting fires.

It was a base comprised of truly dreadful viewers – yet, perhaps they might have been reformed. If they were gathered on the broadcast of a gentle and diligent broadcaster, their urge to fuel drama might have subsided in a few days.

Of course, such an event never occurred. CravingWarmAmericano’s channel was fertile ground, continuously providing kindling and fuel for the flames.

As a result of the principle “like broadcaster, like viewers,” her broadcast had become a gathering of protesters with an “extremely low ignition point”, as she described.

“Uh… hold on. What’s this? Where did these people come from? Was there a hosting?”

This invasion was beyond what Dodat’s typically quiet viewers and managers could handle.

<>

“No idea. Manager, please enable slow-mode chat for a bit.”

Caught in an unprecedented large-scale fire, the broadcast nearly ground to a halt.

Unable to hide his confusion, he tried to regain control–

But the onslaught of chat and donations was impossible to control.

– Anonymous donated 1,000 won! –

【What’s your secret, teacher? Please tell us】

– Anonymous donated 1,000 won! –

【Forget this, turn it off and give us a pickup artist lesson, teacher】

– Anonymous donated 1,000 won! –

【Who’s the Warrior and who’s the Holy Knight? Explain immediately】

If you temporarily block, they’ll follow you with a secondary account. If you set a chat to follow-only mode, they’ll follow. Raising the follow period standard results in donations.

This wasn’t the kind of fire that could be suppressed simply by ignoring and controlling. An appropriate response was needed.

But how could one respond without knowing what was going on?

‘GetDevoured? Romance? Two-timing? What are they talking about?’

Even in a serious fire, one could usually gauge the situation unless their mental state was completely overwhelmed.

However, Dodat couldn’t fathom the cause of this chaos. It was only natural. He hadn’t done anything. No matter how hard he tried to piece together the scattered words, it was almost impossible to imagine the scenario.

“Wait, hold on. Everyone, I really have no idea what’s going on here. Just a moment.”

– ㅇㅇ donated 1,000 won! –

【We don’t know what the hell is going on either, you jerk!!!】

– ㅇㅇ donated 1,000 won! –

【Because of you, that tart has been playing rogue all day】

– ㅇㅇ donated 1,000 won! –

【There’s a summary post on Dodat’s fan cafe】

A summary post.

It could be a trap, but at this point, he had to grasp at straws.

“Revan, I’m really sorry… but I need to deal with this first. I apologize to the viewers too. I really don’t know what’s going on.”

He clicked on a relatively familiar username’s post among the popular posts on the fan cafe’s main screen.

Below the attached video clip was a brief description.

《It’s okay, bro. But… when I went to check your broadcast… never mind. Can you check Discourse, please?》

『Revan: Bro, it’s better if you don’t look at that summary post』

『Revan: You should end the broadcast first and decide whether to prepare an explanation or what to do next』

『Revan: Bro?』

However, Revan’s messages urging him to stop didn’t reach Dodat. His attention was already captured by Lee Yena’s voice message in the video.

‘Rogue and Holy Knight… and even a Warrior? Blocked?’

And at the moment he finished listening, it struck him like a bolt of lightning. The seemingly unrelated events in Dodat’s mind began to connect.

He recalled an id, familiar from the 270,000 won donation asking him to play the rogue, causing lingering guilt from an unintentional scam.

‘That day… when I was playing as a knight, wasn’t that when I briefly looked at the warrior build?’

Casually encountered chat messages from GetDevoured asking him to play as a rogue. It had been… full of varied requests.

‘Didn’t I almost exclusively broadcast rogue gameplay?’

Blocking. Even the block was surely…

‘The fan cafe…?’

There was someone he permanently blocked after sending strange, rogue-themed bait posts right after joining, followed by emails impersonating GetDevoured.

In Dodat’s fan cafe, permanent blocks were extremely rare. It was the first time someone blatantly impersonated a broadcaster.

Although he hadn’t thought much of it, he remembered the incident because it was peculiar.

Putting all these pieces together—

“…GetDevoured…? Hold on. Was that all GetDevoured?”

Was the shock too great, or had talking to himself out loud become a habit from streaming?

Dodat snapped out of it after mumbling in a dazed voice.

He roughly understood what was going on – though he still couldn’t quite believe it. However—

‘How do I explain this…?’

The situation hadn’t improved much at all.

TL’s Corner:
Casually streaming then getting raided by MC’s viewers.
