"Are you a demigod?" the horse-man asked.
"What's that?" Ethan replied, feigning confusion. He already knew but wanted to play along with the horse-man. "Never mind that—how did you even get in here?"
"I teleported here because of some guy calling himself a god or something. He said something about giving me magic abilities. I'm a YouTuber, and he claimed I bring him a great amount of entertainment. He told me to cause as much chaos as I want, and that's how I ended up here. Anyway, I need to continue editing videos. Do you have a place for me to stay?"
"Yeah, sure," the horse-man replied, pointing to a cabin with a medical symbol on it.
"You mean the med bay?" Ethan asked.
The horse-man turned to him. "What's a med bay?"
"Never mind, it's a video game thing," Ethan said. He walked over to the cabin, which was bustling with people. "Hello, I'm new here. Where's my bed? I don't have anything except for these things, and don't touch them or I'll electrocute you to heaven," he said sincerely.
The horse-man showed him to his sleeping spot. "Well, this looks like a nice comfy spot on the floor," Ethan remarked. He settled in and continued editing his videos, which were already getting thousands of views on YouTube and TikTok, making him quite popular quickly. He kept editing until it was almost nighttime.
Deciding it was a good time to look around and figure out what timeline he was in, Ethan wandered around. There wasn't much to see except some kids training at night. He got tired and headed back to his sleeping spot, ready to face a new day.
I woke up and, as expected, found chaos in the camp for teenagers. What else could you expect? I added a few more videos, pushed them on YouTube, and posted 27 shorts on TikTok. I already had a bunch of new subscribers and made 750 coins overnight. Feeling tired, I sat in the cabin writing. I decided to try leaving the barrier because of all the constant chaos around me.
When I tried to leave, I didn't expect a magic barrier to stop me. I thought since I was already inside, I could just walk out, but it turns out you can't get in or out. Accepting that I was stuck, I traveled to the other side of the barrier, sat on a rock, and continued editing videos. It was pretty peaceful; not much was happening. I made 2,500 coins—actually, 2,527 coins—from making and editing videos all day. My popularity was rising fast.
I decided to check out the item shop and maybe purchase a few things. First, I considered getting God Blood so I could leave, but the price—300,000 coins—was steep. Then I saw the Sharingan from Naruto priced at 1 billion coins. That seemed normal, considering its power. Instead, I opted for the ultimate editing skill technique and maxed out my charisma. I spent almost all my coins, leaving me with just 500.
At dawn, I decided to eat. Everyone else was at the tables, so I grabbed a magic bowl of food and ate because I was hungry, and also drank some water. Afterward, I went to bed, awaiting what tomorrow would bring.
I woke up thinking it was going to be a glorious morning. I checked my account and saw I had 250,662 coins to spend in the item shop. The bracelet said, "Oh well, I'm just gonna wait until I can get another 50,000coins." That way, I could get God blood, become a demigod, and finally leave here to start a live stream on Twitch.
I decided to make an account, but then I realized the computer automatically did it for me and ensured my citizens could never be hacked. That was useful. With hundreds of thousands of subscribers, I checked out the comments. Most were about the crazy stunts I was pulling in my videos, like creating a giant ball pit.
Since my editing skills have improved and I have some money to spend, I decided to buy an AI to help me edit during streams. This would save me a lot of work. I bought a basic editing robot from the item shop. Now, I was down to 250,086 coins.
I started a live stream, and everyone asked me questions about how I was doing these crazy stunts and how much money I had. I sat on a rock, answering questions, and the AI editor helped a lot. After three hours of nonstop streaming, my stream had 2,627 viewers, peaking at 4,762 viewers around 5 o'clock.
I decided to close the stream and see how many coins I had. I also received hundreds of dollars in donations. I was rolling in cash from YouTube and TikTok as well. When I opened the bracelet, I saw I had 374,589 coins. Damn, I could buy God blood right now! Actually, I'll do it tomorrow.
No, I'll do it right now and adapt to it while I sleep. I clicked the button and instantly got knocked out, falling asleep on a rock.
