173. Parenting Theory
“Hey. “Luca Kim.”
I don’t know if something good is happening, but my brother’s face was full of mischief.
“Why?”

“Don’t you feel like you want to be nice to me?”
I took a sip of the lemonade in the plastic cup and looked at him with an expression as if asking what he was talking about.
“I… Are you saying this to me because you think I’m not doing well these days…?”
Although the frequency of meeting has decreased recently, there is still nothing we can’t do.
And the reason the frequency decreased was because my brother went to learn composition every day and came back late.
I was less busy than when I was preparing to become an actor, but it’s still a bit hard to blame it on me…
“No no no. “It’s not like that.”
My brother holds out his hand as if to tell me not to misunderstand.
Then what is it? Suddenly.
“Then why are you telling me to do well?”
“Ahem… So, if I were to speak of myself, it would be Teacher Ash Block of Daevidam.”
Until just a month ago, I didn’t even know what Bitdam was doing.
The sight of him talking back and forth looked quite funny.
“So. “It’s good to be my brother’s best student, but I don’t think that’s a reason for me to do well.”
“I… Maybe I can see your directory!”
My brother squeezes my hand.
His eyes were shining brightly.
“Are you my brother…? “What kind of talent does your brother have for looking at our directories?”
I thought it was a delusion bordering on lies.
“No. Well… Well… I’m not seeing it myself! “Teacher Ash Block said that when he sings his song on the album, he’ll sing mine too.”
Ah. If that was the case, it was understandable.
But that’s not something you can do alone, right?
When I tilted my head at the explanation that seemed insufficient, my brother added that he would sit next to me and assist.
“Hmm… To put it simply, it’s like a coward, isn’t it?”
“What a jerk! Serve! Assistant! Student! Why are you saying such nice things? You!”
“No. “Isn’t it like the teacher does all the work anyway, and you have to fetch the water next to you?”
When I teased him because his reaction was funny, my brother went on a rampage, saying it wasn’t like that.
“Anyway. Congratulation. Lucario. If we do well, you can see us recording. Then.”
“Yes. So, by the way, are you going to go offline to the company’s recording studio?”
My manager asked, but I couldn’t make up my mind yet.
The idea of a vertuber popping out into the offline world was still very burdensome to me.
No one will recognize it, but that’s just how I felt.
And even considering what happened the last time I visited the headquarters… I wonder if it wouldn’t be right to just do it in the studio.
“Uhm… Sure. But it’s definitely better to get feedback on the spot.”
I sent the file, waited anxiously, closed it, and recorded again.
I had already gone through that process several times, and it felt like I was being traumatized again.
Ugh… I don’t want to…
I liked the broadcast, but I still hated recording the song.
“Then come and do it!”
“Are you telling me to go there with my brother and have a romantic relationship?”
“No. “I’m not going there to have a romantic relationship.”
I felt fortunate to see his overly bright face.
If my brother hadn’t gotten out of that swamp of failure even now, I would have been heartbroken the whole time.
The name YM was something I was very thankful for, but at the same time it felt bad.
“I’ll think about it. “It’s not confirmed, though.”
“Ah. Why. “I can control your part too?”
“Don’t lie, right? After all, isn’t that what the teacher does?”
My brother was shaking, probably because he was hot.
It was a softness that did not match her appearance.
If you peel away a layer of his cold-hearted shell, he was a very child-like person underneath.
“Well… But if I tell the teacher, it will be reflected positively again.”
“Yes~ Yes~ I will do well~ I~”
I got up from my seat to sign up and say goodbye, and my brother followed me out of the cafe.
“Now I just have to stop coming out with my outerwear.”
“I guess so.”
The warm May sunshine welcomed us warmly.
“Oppa. “You know May is family month.”
“You know.”
“Then do you want to have children when you get married later?”
First of all, I skipped that question because I thought it would not be a case of non-marriage considering that he was in a relationship with me.
“Child? Um… Um… Sure. “I’ve never thought about it.”
“Hmm. Why? “Don’t a lot of people think about things like that?”
He scratched his head sheepishly and burst into laughter.
“Honestly, if it weren’t for you, I don’t think I would have ever dated in the future.”
“…Really?”
“Couldn’t they just be protecting 2D human rights? “Watch the Closer broadcast.”
“Then you never meet women at all?”
“Hey. “I know who they are and I like them.”
When I remembered that I was so infatuated with my brother that I had a crush on him, I felt embarrassed and wanted to hide somewhere.
“Ma… That’s right.”
I was so embarrassed that I had to put the story back on track.
“That. So, I want to have a few kids!”
“Okay. How many children are you going to have?”
My gaze and mine meet in the air.
Are you sure you know what this is saying? That?
Aren’t you just saying outright that you want to marry me?
That’s what it means to ask for a child.
Steam seemed to be coming out of my ears with a hissing sound.
“That… That… Oh… Whatever your brother decides…”
“So if we give birth to 100 people, 100 will go?”
Ah. Make jokes and jokes like that.
I hit him hard on the back with my fist.
Saying things that don’t even sound like words.
“There’s nothing I can’t say in broad daylight!”
“No. “You said so.”
“I wonder if she meets a woman who gives birth to that much! Then!”
There was a high probability that she was not from Earth.
I snorted and looked up at him, and he placed his hand on my head.
“Then you take the lead~ Because I don’t know.”
I didn’t feel good because I kept feeling like I was playing along with his flow, but the underlying conversation was the premise that we were getting married.
I couldn’t dislike that amazing fact.
“I… I. “I like my son.”
“Really? “I like my daughter.”
“Why?”
He spoke as if he had no opinion at all.
“Huh? “I thought if I had a son, he would be like me in some way.”
“Isn’t it good if my son’s wife is this handsome?”
“But what if my son’s wife spends all day watching Vertuber in her room?”
…It’s definitely not easy.
When I imagined myself becoming a mother, I felt like she was suffocating.
“Did your mother say anything?”
“But my mom knew that something like that happened to me at school… I think she was just satisfied with me doing some studying. “I’m not sure.”
“I see…”
Still, I didn’t think I could get scolded for seeing a Virtuber.
I had the mindset that even if all the mothers in the world scolded me, I shouldn’t do that.
And if a child even searches my videos…
Ugh… Ugh…
I felt like my teeth were grinding and my mentality was completely torn apart.
But will there be Virtubers even then?
Like any other cartoon, our minds might have all been connected to the Internet world by then.
“Doa, are you not a good daughter?”
“No? She doesn’t seem to be doing much. Honestly, I think everyone would be very happy if it were my child.”
My brother stopped still and grabbed my cheek with both hands.
“It must have been softer than this when it was a baby.”
“Moha-ge-e-e-yang, ig-e-e-yang”
It’s a street with a lot of people, but there’s an increase in cheek tags in the middle of it.
“Ah. “I’m already looking forward to it.”
My brother walked forward, smiling brightly, as if he had drawn something in his head.
“What are you going to do when your daughter gets a boyfriend?”
“I have to kill him.”
It was an answer without any hesitation.
“…It’s bloodier than I thought, isn’t it?”
“…The person who took Kim Do-ah Jr. Away from me deserves to die.”
With clenched fists, it certainly didn’t look like he was going to let it go.
“So what if my daughter is just into male vertubers?”
My brother’s expression was grotesquely distorted, as if he had eaten kimchi and green pepper noodle soup.
“Ah… Should we keep our house free of electronic devices?”
“What are you talking about? “Is there anything I can do to bully my child?”
“Ah… But what does Dad know about Tintin Live when he slams the door! “If this continues, I might actually commit suicide.”
It is true that humans are indeed animals.
-Weee
“Ah. Brother. Wait. “It’s a company.”
[Hello.]
[Ah. Yes. Hello. Mr. Luca, is it okay to talk right now?]
[Yes. Talk about your sister.]
I don’t really need to contact the manager, so what is it?
[This time, an advertisement came in under Luca’s name.]
[Ah. Then we will join together with the members.]
[No. Luca’s name came in alone.]
…Personal advertisement?
From noble mtl dot com
[Yes, yes.]
[This may be a long story, but are you outside?]
[Ah. Yes. Then, can I go home and call you again?]
[Yes, yes. Then when…]
[Please wait for 10 minutes.]
[Yes!]
As I was staring at the red screen, my brother asked me with a worried look.
“Why is it so serious?”
“Watashi. “I received a solo advertisement…?”
“Oh… Perhaps child care products?”
I slapped my brother’s butt with an unexpected joke.
