After that, I spent another two hours streaming with Eiri. As soon as the stream ended, Eiri laughed.
"Hahahaha, that was so much fun! I've never had this many people in my stream before!"
She was extremely excited.
"You should thank me," I said with a smile.
"Of course I'll thank you! Thank you, Kyo, I really love you!"
She can say those words so easily.
"Alright, I need to go now. I've been playing for too long. I need to take a shower and then attend a meeting," I said.
"Okay. But a meeting? At this hour?"
I checked the time, and it was already midnight.
"Yes, it's an important meeting. See you later."
"Sure, sure. Thanks again, Kyo. Let's do another stream together sometime in the future~~"
Shortly afterward, I ended the call and went to take a shower. Once I was done, I headed straight to my bedroom and lay down.
I didn't actually have any meeting to attend. I only said that so Eiri wouldn't keep insisting that I play with her for a few more hours.
I'm sure she would have done that.
I then opened Twitter and saw that a lot of people were talking about the stream. Eiri had received free publicity.
"Well, I'm glad it helped her."
But would she be able to keep the audience?
After all, I would hardly participate in another stream. Most likely, many people followed her because of me and would stop watching her streams after a while.
Well, that's not my problem.
Then I opened Instagram and saw that I had already surpassed 500,000 followers. All of my photos, including the sponsored ones, had more than 150,000 likes. My engagement rate was absurdly high.
That attracts a lot of brands.
Over the next few days, I'll have to take a lot of photos to promote several brands on my Instagram. Rina said she received many products that will be delivered to me tomorrow.
Yaaawnnn~~
I let out a long yawn and placed my phone on the desk beside my bed before going to sleep.

POV: Third Person
While Kyo had just gone to sleep, Miu was sitting on her bed using her laptop to type. Her fingers moved quickly, though not on the same level as Kyo's agile fingers.
She was considered a very fast typist, but Kyo was on another level.
"Urgh, how am I supposed to write this scene?"
Suddenly, Miu got stuck.
She wasn't sure how to continue the fight scene. She was terrible at that sort of thing.
"Kyo can write these kinds of scenes so well. Even though I've read everything he's written, I can't replicate it."
Besides, she felt that copying a fight scene—or even parts of one written by Kyo—would be wrong.
"I wanted to surprise him. Kyo thinks I'm writing a romance novel or something more grounded..."
But contrary to what Kyo believed, she was writing a fantasy story!
A very interesting story with a time travel concept. Time travel was a difficult device to use, but Miu wanted to give it a try.
"It was supposed to be a surprise, but I think I'll ask him for help. If he gives me some lessons on how to write this kind of scene, it'll be really useful. I'm sure he'll agree without a second thought... Kyo is kind."
Miu smiled and closed the text file.
She had already signed a contract with a publisher, but she still hadn't finished the first volume. She was close to the end.
She had only sent a draft to the publisher, but they thought the writing was very good and the premise was highly interesting, which was why they signed a contract with her so quickly.
After Kyo's rise to fame, they couldn't afford to let promising talents like this slip away!
Miu then opened her Instagram account, which didn't contain a single photo of herself, and visited Kyo's profile. She looked at several pictures of him while smiling.
Then, suddenly, someone knocked on her bedroom door.
"Miu, it's time to sleep. Turn off that light and stop making noise!"
It was her mother.
'But I'm not making any noise...'
Miu thought as she closed her laptop.
Then she turned off the light and lay down. She picked up her phone and opened her messaging app. She barely had any contacts, and Kyo's number was at the top of the list. It was marked as a "Favorite."
She seriously considered sending him a message, but since it was late, she decided not to.
"It's a shame he isn't going to school. I really wanted to see him..."
She murmured before closing her eyes.

POV: Kyo
A few days had passed since my dinner with Eiri. She invited me several times to participate in her streams, but I refused. She also invited me to play games with her, but I turned down those invitations as well.
It's addictive, so I'd rather avoid it.
Over the past few days, I continued filming "Teenage Love," which is close to wrapping up. This time, we even had some outdoor shoots, and that caused quite a commotion.
Some people recorded everything on their phones and posted it online.
Unlike me, who didn't care, Eiri was extremely excited because her popularity was growing considerably.
And besides the filming, I also received some good news. The music video for "Idol" would be finished in just two days and could be released after editing.
Aoi Hoshino was very excited and invited me to dinner to celebrate.
However, I told her that I would go out with her after the music video was released.
Another interesting thing that happened over the past few days was that I received a call from Miu about her writing. It was something I didn't expect, so I was very happy.
She trusts me enough to help her.
She said she needed advice on how to write a good fight scene, and that shocked me. I never imagined she was writing a novel with that kind of content.
She told me she was writing a fantasy story but didn't go into details.
So I wrote a document for her—essentially a lesson on how to write a good fight scene.
It ended up being a text file with more than eighty pages.
She thanked me and then disappeared.
"That girl..."
Then, suddenly, I received a message on my phone.
[I just sent the manuscript for the first volume to the publisher!]
I smiled and replied.
[Congratulations! I can't wait to read it!]
Seriously, I'm really happy for Miu.
