Chapter 7


“…What?”

Yuna received a text and furrowed her brow.

It wasn’t that she felt bad; she was just a bit dumbfounded.

The message from Parang had a rather intriguing angle to it.

  

To summarize, it was a request for Yuna to promote her broadcast during Yuna’s own stream—a request that was the pinnacle of inconveniences.

But if you looked at the details? It was very logical and neat, with no room for rebuttal.

Were the deep-sea monsters actually dangerous? Yes. Yuna almost died.

Is it right to inform others about the dangers of deep-sea monsters? Absolutely.

The best way to inform? Show them directly how terrifying those creatures are.

Who can do that? The Yu Parang Hunter is nearly the only one.

In today’s world, what do people enjoy most? Internet broadcasts.

Who can pour viewers into Parang’s stream like candy? Yuna.

That was the essence of Parang’s argument.

Every event and the following claims and evidence fit perfectly together.

It was even a request from the person who saved her life.

Honestly, Yuna had no choice but to oblige.

Especially since it was a broadcast where she would personally hunt unidentified monsters in the deep sea while explaining it.

There was no way it wouldn’t spark excitement unless it was incredibly dull.

And to top it off, Parang was above average in hosting skills. Didn’t they manage smooth progress without relying on chat interaction, just with their own monologue?

“Hmm…”

Still, there was a troubling aspect. More equipment would be needed for broadcasting, and even with promotion, the turnout might be small.

Wait.

“Am I really worrying about this? Me?”

Yuna muttered to herself.

Am I hesitating to help someone who saved my life?

That was absolutely unacceptable. It wasn’t even like they were asking for her entire broadcast; they just wanted a shoutout.

Her pride took a little hit. She felt a little ashamed at how she was acting. Yuna, who has always upheld human decency despite her reckless ways.

She immediately grabbed her phone and began typing like mad.

[ Hello, Yu Parang Hunter. I completely agree with the need for the broadcast you suggested. Therefore, I think it would be great to… do it in my future stream. ]

After finishing the text, Yuna thought for a moment, stroking her chin. After all, she owed her a favor, and just giving a quick shoutout (which was more than just a shoutout) felt too insincere.

Just giving a shoutout wouldn’t do justice to Yuna’s name. She immediately started composing a lengthy message, thinking about what more she could offer…

“Oh.”

[ Additionally, if you’re okay with it, I would like to provide you with broadcasting equipment that I made myself. The items I can provide include a microphone, camera… If you need additional items, let me know… ]

This was only fair to repay the favor. S-rank crafting hunter Shin Yuna pressed the send button with a satisfied expression.

Not long after, a reply came.

[ Thank you. It seems we can proceed as you mentioned. ]

Thus, a secret agreement was made between S-rank crafting hunter and the strongest underwater hunter on Earth.

Yuna immediately sent mail to the crafting hunters she knew. 10 A ranks, and 3 S ranks. All of them were very close friends.

“Hello? Yeah, it’s me. So, that…”

Since she was at it, she wanted to turn South Korea upside down, even if the world wouldn’t know about it.

When would she ever get saved in her life again?

A week later, on July 10th, a notice was posted on Shin Yuna’s channel.

[ (7/10 Channel Notice) Event Announcement – A-rank Artifact, Shin Yuna is handing it out! ]

[ Hello, everyone, this is Streaming Hunter Shin Yuna. I wanted to inform you that, following the incident during my previous underwater content, I have… collaborated with Yu Parang Hunter.

… Therefore, after watching Yu Parang’s broadcast on July 27th from start to finish, we will hold a lottery for the first ten people who verify their attendance, granting them A-rank artifacts crafted by me.

*You can choose the type of artifact.
*For details, please contact [email protected]. ]

And all the hunters in South Korea flipped out.

[ Holy crap, did you guys see Shin Yuna’s announcement? ]

Wait, they’re giving out A-rank artifacts? Even an S-rank crafter? Is this for real?

– They’re giving out 10 A-rank artifacts just for watching a stream?

– Who is this person?

ㄴ Shin Yuna, S-rank crafting hunter who does broadcasts.

ㄴ Who’s this Yu Parang?

ㄴ The person who saved her during the broadcast accident.

ㄴ What accident?

ㄴ They were deep-sea diving and almost sank.

ㄴ ?? What the hell?

– Wow, they’re just giving out A-ranks ㅋㅋ just not equipment but artifacts lol

– You can choose the type for the artifacts. Isn’t it basically custom orders from an S-rank crafter? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

News spread like wildfire.

[ When you think about it, it’s truly a madness collection. ]

(Attached screenshot zooming in on the A-rank artifact part from the channel’s notice.)

A S-rank crafting hunter who saved someone’s life and asks, “Can you help promote my stream?”

And the other replies, “Oh, while we’re at it, how about I give away some artifacts?”

Both sound completely crazy.

– “How about I give away some artifacts?” “If it gets too overwhelming, just jump into the water and carry on. That’ll be way better.”

Meanwhile, Parang remembered Yuna’s advice and finally snapped out of it.

  

‘Right. I’ll jump into the sea.’

That idea made her feel much more relaxed.

“Phew… I will explain the rest while going down.”

Parang backed up and, maintaining her stance, jumped backward, doing a backflip.

Her fingertips dove into the water without causing a single splash. It was a perfect dive.

Soon, the camera perspective shifted to her first-person view underwater.
