Chapter 12 - Secret Identity

[I_Miss_Timmy has followed.]

[LotusMan: Thanks for the great stream!]

[BigBertha05: See you tommorrow!]

[BlueDragon: I will follow your Tweeter once you set it up!]

"Thank you all for joining! See you all tomorrow, bye!" Kanzaki said as a bunch of messages went off in his chat making him smile. It was the end of his stream and he had gained another follower which surprised him greatly. The growth that he had in this stream was way beyond his expectations but what had made him happier than anything else was the constant swarm of messages he had been getting since the beginning of the stream.

It made a Kanzaki smile and feel good to be so wanted and that people wanted to talk with him for hours on end. Not only that he had never gotten bored throughout the entire time since he was doing something he truly enjoyed. It just further cemented in his mind that this was something he truly wanted to do and pursue so he hoped that it would work out before his time ran out.

Since the stream was now over it was time for Kanzaki's nightly routine. He quickly went to his fridge and took out some food to prepare. Once he was done he went and sat down at his desk with his plate instead of his dinner table. The reasoning behind this was that he wanted to set up his Tweeter account as soon as possible since in his mind the sooner he set it up the more likely people were to follow it and find it.

Kanzaki quickly pulled up Tweeter and signed in using the email he used for both his Cord and Witch accounts. This made it easier for him to keep track of since he had the same email and password for everything. When Kanzaki signed into Tweeter with his email it even pulled up Witch asking if he wanted to connect the Tweeter account directly which he of course said yes.

Once that was done he went through the account-making process setting up his username and many other things that involved his account. Luckily no one had taken the name he was using so he was able to go through without any problems at all. He then added the picture of his V-Tuber model to his profile picture but when it came to a banner he didn't really know what to do so he just used a blank black picture that matched his V-Tuber clothes and gave it a certain aesthetic.

"Phew." Kanzaki said out loud once he was finally done setting up the account. It was surprising to him to look at the screen and seeing that he had no posts, no followers, and he was following no one else. He took a moment to screenshot that screen that way he could keep it in his memories if he ever got big just to remind himself of where he started. The thought of opportunity and growth made him smile as he realized the only way was up.

*Ding!*

While Kanzaki was in his own thoughts he heard a sudden notification on his computer. When he looked up he was surprised to see that his Tweeter account had just gained a follower and when he checked he grinned when he saw it was BigBertha05 from his stream. While he was checking that, he suddenly got two more dings which lead him to see two more followers come in from people that had joined his stream.

The follower count on his Tweeter kept rising until it was 9 followers in total and when Kanzaki checked who was missing it turned out that the only person he didn't see on his follower list was his first viewer Boss413.

'I guess they must be busy right now or something.' Kanzaki thought to himself when he began wondering why they hadn't followed yet. He still considered them to be his biggest supporter since he remembers every single message of support they had sent so far. It truly meant a lot to him and he would never forget it.

One thing that Kanzaki started to do was he would go to one of his viewer's Tweeter page and look more into what they were like. It turns out BigBertha05 seems to be some sort of lawyer that works in the city while BlueDragon owns his own video game store. Kanzaki was surprised that so many people he considered to be successful spent their time watching him it was quite strange to him.

Kanzaki was having a fun time looking at his follower's accounts with some being more interesting than others. The least interesting thus far had been I_Miss_Timmy who only had a bunch of fan art drawn for a character name Timmy that Kanzaki didn't know about. Apparently, he didn't get enough screen time or something.

All of these peoples account however paled in comparison to Kanzaki's follower Hinojosaiii's account. When Kanzaki looked at the profile picture he was surprised to see what looked to be a V-Tuber model. The model was something that Kanzaki recognized almost instantly since Hinojosaiii had shown him an easter egg involving this exact creature. Kanzaki had spent time searching it up the night before on his phone and found out it was a plesiosaur.

Intrigued by the profile picture Kanzaki clicked on his account and almost had his eyes fall out of their sockets when he saw Hinojosaiii's account. He had over 10 thousand followers! The 10k beside the follower count was something that Kanzaki thought he was imagining but when he looked back at it over and over again without it changing he couldn't help but finally admit it was true.

However, the description of his account surprised Kanzaki even further. It said that he was a V-Tuber and partnered streamer that had been on Witch for over 3 years! This came as a surprise to Kanzaki since he had never expected such a thing so he decided to scroll through Hinojosaiii's tweets and was surprised to see that he had a schedule exactly like what Kanzaki was trying to set up. In fact, he had just gone live!
