Chapter 110: [A Song to Save the World]
[Um, can you see me? Can you hear me?]
In a pure white 3D space, a single VTuber stands alone.
Could it be… her!?
[Hello everyone! Long time no see!]
She is the original VTuber.
She's the streamer who coined the term "Virtual MyTuber" in this world.
"But why!?"
She was affectionately called "Oyabin" by everyone and had entered a sleep-limited "hiatus" while being missed by everyone.
Her final live performance is still legendary.
Oh, just remembering it now brings tears to my eyes.
Her achievements were remarkable, with numerous TV appearances.
The "Oyabin Interview", where people enthusiastically called her name with various emotions became a big sensation among the younger generation.
However, there may never be another chance to see her moving and speaking like that.
…That's what I thought.
>Oyabin!!!
>No way, seriously Oyabin!?
>Is it real!?
[Hahaha. Everyone is surprised because I suddenly woke up, right? Yeah, me too!]
>Welcome back, Oyabin!!!
>I've missed you so much!
>I'm glad to hear your voice again!
[Well, I was sleeping so comfortably… but suddenly, the world has become so noisy, right? So I woke up in surprise! I'm super angry because my sleep was disturbed! Grrr!]
>Is it the Ama-no-Iwato?
>Grrr, that's so old-fashioned!
>Well, Oyabin has been sleeping for a long time, hahaha!
[Well, it's fine! That's not the point! Anyway, various disturbances are happening in the real world or virtual world… So, there's something I want to say a little.]
She smiles at us.
With the same expression as back then…
[There are no borders in the virtual world.]
Her voice is converted into electrical signals.
[There are no races in the virtual world.]
Her voice travels through the network.
[The virtual world is free from gender.]
Her voice is converted again and becomes sound in our hands.
[In the virtual world, there is no war.]
However, her words were not just a mere sequence of signals.
[Like a world where anyone can get along with anyone, like a world where you can be yourself, not someone else…]
[—–I hope our world is peaceful.]
She slowly closes her eyes, then opens them.
In an instant, the stage changes, and music begins to play.
"This…!?"
And then, she starts to sing.
The lyrics of the song seem to embody her earlier statement.
"No way!? Could it be that this song is the special one I prepared!?"
The secret plan I had been working on behind the scenes was about this song.
But I didn't know if it would be ready in time, so all I could do was hope.
Once it was completed, I instructed the cooperated VTubers to perform it immediately.
I had also asked the VTubers on the receiving end to sing it if they received it.
But why would Oyabin be singing this song!?
Oyabin was supposed to be in a sleep state, and I hadn't even been in contact with her.
"Huhuhu! Well, you can thank me for all of this!"
"Huh? Could it be that Ah-nee did this!? What on earth!?"
I instinctively grab Ah-nee and shake my head vigorously.
She calms me down with a "Calm down," and smiles mischievously.
"So? Impressed?"
"No, but!?"
What exactly did she mean by "impressed"?
"Huh? I just contacted her normally. I sent her a message, and she replied. We even talked on the phone. Right in front of Iroha-chan."
"!?!?!? Wait, the person you were casually chatting with earlier was her!?"
"That's right."
"Uwaaaaah!?"
"Iroha-chan went crazy!?"
I tremble uncontrollably.
Seeing me like that, Mai gently strokes my head and says, "Good girl, Iroha-chan… Good boy." Hey, wait!
"What are you stroking!?"
"Muu~"
I push Mai's hand away from my chest.
Well, thanks to that weird incident, I was able to recover from the trip in a short time.
Anyway!
Her actions were deviating from my common sense to the point that I became like this.
From my perspective, it feels like I've barged into heaven with my shoes on and directly negotiated with God.
It's an extraordinary feat, where I would be willing to lose my wings or be burned alive.
"But… Oyabin is amazing after all."
Her fans from overseas and even prominent figures have been appearing one after another in her comment section.
They have started sharing this song on social media and other platforms.
<<…See, Iroha? If you don't give up, the world will change!>>
Angu Ogu on the stream showed a smiling face.
Ah, it's so true…!
I realize how conceited I have been.
I have been using words as I pleased all this time, and now the very word "inevitable" is about to be used on me.
That's right. It's not the words that decide.
It's me.
VTubers from various countries start singing all at once.
Even to those who don't understand the language, it might reach them — yes, through music.
