Chapter 230 – Appearing on Hazukicchi's Planned Program!

Golden Wееk kept mе busy with my оwn strеаms аnd еvеnt preрaratiоns!

Аmid all thе hustlе аnd bustlе, thе daу finallу arrived.

Ассоmpaniеd by fivе Grimoires, I arrivеd аt the Ikaruga Entеrtаinment building…

“Hmm, I sense a rivаl’s рresence~”

Mаrinnа seemеd oddlу firеd uр.

Lаtely, Marinnа has beеn dоing а lot of оnlinе bаttles, and аppаrently she has а rivаlry with a drаgоn who’s а staff membеr at Ikaruga.

“Вesidеs, thеre’s a Demon Genеral аffiliаtеd with Ikarugа, isn’t there~?”

“Аh, right, right. Ikаrugа Entertаinment hаs quitе а fеw nоn-human strеаmеrs, huh?”

Tо bеgin with, their core member, Kiraboshi Hazuki, is constantly under suspicion that her strength might not be human. Even as Spice, I still can’t believe that seemingly introverted high school girl is the world’s strongest streamer…

“Hahaha, we’ve already given up on that.”

“Mmm~. We’re already inside the monster’s belly.”

So said Flota and Ignite, who had already accepted reality.

Just then, Marinna popped out of Spice’s bag.

“Well then, I’m off to have an offline battle with my rival.”

“Ah, good luck~”

The blue Grimoire fluttered away, transforming mid-flight into a color-variant Aqua Spice.

The Ikaruga staff were briefly startled, but when asked about the dragon’s whereabouts, they kindly guided her.

Truly befitting the modern world’s stronghold against Dungeons, Ikaruga Entertainment.

A Grimoire turning into a person is nothing to them, it seems.

As for Spice and the others, they headed to the second-floor filming studio.

This building is pretty spacious, huh?

The first-floor staff area isn’t that big, but you could say the second-floor studios are the main part.

The studio, which likely occupies most of the building, was open, and this time, Spice was the first to arrive.

“Good morning! Welcome!”

A woman who appeared to be the President’s secretary came out and handed over a script.

We had received one earlier, but this must be the final version.

It outlined the program flow, leaving our own remarks up to us.

“Nice to meet you! Wow, but Ikaruga is really amazing, huh? Holding an event like this. Even though they might get glared at by the government.”

“Our company has already confronted the corrupted Labyrinth Ministry head-on. At this point, fighting the government is nothing, you could say.”

“So strong!”

I couldn’t help but be impressed.

Ikaruga Entertainment is also involved in activities to abolish Dungeon holidays.

Major streamer companies like Live Dungeon, Now Fantasy, and Jane Doe are sponsoring this effort.

Around that time, pattering footsteps approached.

“Sorry~, I’m a little late~”

“It’s fine~! You’re well within the time!”

That voice…!

I turned around to see a girl standing straighter and more poised than when I last saw her.

An 18-year-old, still an active high school girl streamer.

Beloved worldwide by the nickname “Burdock Girl,” the world’s strongest streamer, Kiraboshi Hazuki.

“Um, um, Little Spice, long time no see!”

“Long time no see~!”

Since New Year’s!

In person, it’s been about a year and a half?

I gave her a firm handshake.

Then, Little Hazuki’s silhouette blurred…

From the side emerged a Little Hazuki with bat-like wings, small horns, and a higher exposure outfit.

She already looked Virtualized, but this was…

“I’m Beelzebub~”

“Ah, hello hello~!”

The Cardinal Sin itself, separated from Little Hazuki, who was the Cardinal Sin of Gluttony.

Something akin to a Demon General on the Dungeon side, but for some reason, this being, Beelzebub, ended up sticking with the human side in a friendly manner.

Lately, she’s been appearing on Kiraboshi Hazuki’s streams as if it’s the most natural thing.

Flota and the others peeked out from the bag,

“Ah, a real demon!”

“Seems like a Higher-Tier demon!”

“Hello there~”

“What’s this? Is Tokyo, Japan, a demon realm? Compared to this, Graz seems like a peaceful countryside town~”

Finally noticed, huh, Karafuri!

Our household head is a dragon, and having the world’s strongest streamer and the Demon King Beelzebub together is everyday life in Japan!

After that, Kumauchi Little Matagi and Paikaji Little Yukui arrived together.

Little Matagi had apparently gone to pick up Little Yukui from her hotel.

I know Little Yukui’s real appearance—a tanned woman around twenty years old.

Little Matagi is a bit older, a slender, fair-skinned woman.

“Hello~! Nice to meet you! Little Spice!? Wow~! So cute!!”

“Hello hello~! I’m an old man, though!”

Shook hands with Little Matagi!

“Little Spice, mi-duu-haa-soo-naa (long time no see)! Mi-shaa-roo-run-saa (how have you been)?”

“I’ve been good, good!”

“Little Spice understands Yukui’s words!”

“As expected of an adult old man…!”

So exclaimed a surprised Little Hazuki and Little Matagi.

I did study some Yaeyama dialect to a certain extent…!

And so, the four of us gathered, read through the script together…

And now, onto the main program!

Alright, let’s do this, let’s do this!
