Today marked the second event of the collaboration, where the Happy World Smile idols and I were about to play a battle royale game.
The rule is every kill would come with a 60-second time limit to choose between truth or dare. If I failed to make a decision within that time, the chat would eagerly step in and make the choice for me.
"Are you ready, Kou-kun?" Shiiki asked, controller in hand.
"T-This is my first time handling one..." Yukimi said, her hands trembling.
The chat couldn't resist finding Yukimi's nervousness endearing.
"Omg, let me teach you, Yukimi-chan!"
"She's so unbelievably cute!"
Yukimi took a glimpse of the comments and looked directly at the camera. "S-Shut up, everyone! It's my first time, okay?!"
Meanwhile, Chiaki was playfully pressing buttons on her controller. "Hmm~ Just making sure... Well, despite appearances, I'm actually pretty skilled at games!"
Today's game was set in battle royale mode with a first-person shooter (FPS) perspective.
I doubt we're going to get stream-sniped by viewers and let them get killed by these three.
The game began, and we found ourselves landing in a remote location, away from the action.
It seemed like a strategic move, allowing us some time to gather supplies and plan our next moves. As we scoured the area for weapons and equipment, We can hear gunshots near us.
The chat was abuzz with excitement and predictions.
"Who do you think will get the first kill?"
"I'm rooting for Kou-kun!"
"Imagine if they encounter a viewer in the game. LOL!"
As the game progressed, the tension grew, and the map gradually shrank, pushing us closer to the remaining players. Despite the close encounters, no one had secured a kill yet. The chat was eagerly waiting for that exhilarating moment.
However, the silence was broken as Chiaki, showing her gaming prowess, started sniping players with impressive precision. One after another, she eliminated opponents, racking up a total of four kills.
"I obliterated a whole squad! Kou-kun!!" Chiaki exclaimed with excitement.
"Haha, good for you, Chiaki."
"That's four kills in total. Great job, Chiaki!"
The chat exploded with reactions.
"Chiaki is dominating the game!"
"Kou-kun, you better step up your game!"
"I can't believe Chiaki just wiped out a whole squad. She's a force to be reckoned with!"
"Yo! That's 4 total!"
As the intense battle raged on, the number of players dwindled, and only 10 combatants remained on the battlefield. The tension was palpable as each remaining player fought for their survival.
Chiaki, still riding the wave of her previous kills, scanned the surroundings with her sharp eyes. "We're getting closer to victory, guys! Let's keep pushing!"
Shiiki nodded in agreement, her focus unwavering. "We're doing great so far. Let's stick together and watch each other's backs."
Yukimi, though still relatively new to gaming, gathered her courage and joined in, determined to contribute to the team's success. "I'll do my best, too! Let's win this!"
the four of us moved strategically through the remaining zones, cautiously navigating the terrain and keeping an eye out for potential enemies. Every sound, every movement, became a potential threat or opportunity.
The chat was buzzing with excitement, cheering us on and eagerly anticipating the outcome.
"Come on, Kou-kun! Show us what you've got!"
"You can do it, HWS and Kou-kun!"
"Who will be the last one standing? Place your bets!"
As we closed in on the remaining players, the tension grew thicker in the air. Suddenly, a gunshot rang out from a nearby building.
"Chiaki, watch out! They're over there," I quickly alerted her, pinging the location on our map.
"Ohh~ Nice spot, Kou-kun! Thanks!" Chiaki acknowledged, her eyes focused on the target.
But just as we thought we had the upper hand, another player emerged from behind, catching me off guard. I was knocked down, unable to contribute to the immediate fight. "Ahhhahaha, sorry guys! I got caught off guard."
Chiaki's laughter rang out through the microphone. "No worries, Kou-kun! We've got this!
As the battle raged on, Yukimi too fell victim to an opponent's attack. Overwhelmed with disappointment, she dropped the controller and covered her face, feeling a mixture of frustration and embarrassment.
"I... I thought it was you guys..." she mumbled, her voice filled with disappointment.
The chat, ever observant and quick to react, couldn't help but find humor in the situation.
"LOL, I noticed that too!"
"It's alright, Yukimi! We all have our moments."
"Keep practicing, you'll get better!"
It's up to Shiiki and Chiaki.
As the battle intensified, Chiaki's skills shone through as she ruthlessly took down multiple players, securing an impressive total of six kills.
"That's six!" she exclaimed, her excitement palpable.
However, the tides quickly turned against us as Shiiki fell victim to an unexpected attack from behind.
"Ahh! I didn't notice that!"
"It's okay, Shiiki. It's my fault for reacting too slowly."
The chat, ever engaged and quick to comment, couldn't help but marvel at Chiaki's gameplay.
"I had no idea Chiaki was this good at the game?!"
"Chiaki, you're a beast! Can we duo up sometime?"
As the intense battle reached its climax, Chiaki's sharp eyes caught sight of the last remaining player.
she lined up her shot and pulled the trigger. The bullet soared through the air, hitting its mark with deadly precision.
The chat erupted with excitement and anticipation.
"Chiaki, go for the final kill!"
"Finish them off, Chiaki!"
And then, with a resounding thud, the last opponent fell. Chiaki had done it. She had claimed the final kill.
Cheers and applause filled the chat.
"GG, Chiaki! You're amazing!"
"Wow, what a clutch shot!"
"Kou-kun and the HWS idols for the win!"
"That was impressive gameplay from Chiaki," Shiiki exclaimed, applauding.
"Yeah, I can tell Chiaki's really into it. She's even sweating!" I chuckled.
"Hehe, it's okay, Kou-kun. But don't forget, you're up for six rounds of truth or dare now!" Shiiki reminded me with a mischievous smile.
My heart skipped a beat as I realized I had completely forgotten about the twist.
Damn it, I actually forgot about that!
