Chapter 39: Pardo and Elysia's Streaming Classroom
A day passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the official launch of Honkai Impact 3rd arrived. As the clock ticked away, it reached 9:40 AM. Su Mu glanced at the time on his phone.
"Kiana isn't here yet?" Bronya's worried voice drifted over.
The two were currently standing outside the prepared streaming studio, waiting for Kiana. Inside the studio, Pardofelis was debugging the equipment while chatting with Elysia.
"What should I do, Sister Ellie? I'm so nervous!"
"It's okay, Pardo! I believe in your abilities! You're the best girl~"
"Ugh, Sister Ellie, aren't you nervous at all? This is an official live broadcast!"
"Hmm~? Of course not! Because Pardo is here, I, Elysia, am full of motivation right now~!"
"Sometimes I really admire you, Sister Ellie..." Pardofelis wiped away some cold sweat.
This official stream had been pre-arranged by Su Mu. At the same time Honkai Impact 3rd launched, Pardo and Elysia would serve as special guest streamers on the official channel. The content of the stream was simple and direct: two beautiful girls playing Honkai Impact 3rd together.
Pardofelis and Elysia had both dressed up meticulously today. They were wearing clothes produced by Eden based on the design sketches Su Mu had drawn of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers. Even Eden had been extremely surprised—how could Su Mu design clothes that fit them so perfectly? His designs were not inferior even to those of world-famous fashion designers.
But Eden didn't know that these sketches were actually Su Mu "plagiarizing" Eden herself. In the Honkai Impact 3rd game, the uniforms of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers were designed by Eden; this was a case of "face-to-face" borrowing from the original author's design.
The reason Su Mu didn't choose Kiana, Raiden Mei, or Bronya for the stream was also simple: compared to the girls in the videos, the real trio were currently a bit too mature. Kiana was okay, and Raiden Mei wouldn't have been impossible, but she had been so busy lately that they couldn't invite her. Bronya, however, was the biggest problem. Who would have thought that a few years' difference would turn Bronya directly into a "Big Duck"?
Having Pardo and Elysia stream was partially because Pardo had been participating in game testing and was proficient with the entire game. Plus, as a professional streamer, she was eloquent and could keep the atmosphere lively. Elysia, besides being a streamer herself, had incredibly high visual appeal. Besides, who could better define the words "Beautiful Girl" than the Pink Elf herself? A "Beautiful Girl Game" naturally had to be represented by beautiful girls!
"Hmm? It seems like something is going on with Su Mu's side?" Pardofelis looked outside the studio at Bronya, whose brows were tightly knit. "Has something happened to Kiana?"
Pardo stood up and walked out of the studio. Firstly, she cared about what was happening. Secondly, she was too nervous and wanted to move around to relax.
"Is she here?" Pardo asked curiously as she stepped out.
"If that girl Kiana doesn't show up soon, she won't make it to the stream..." Bronya looked helpless. "I called Carole and the others; they are on their way... I doubt they'll make it in time."
Pardo froze. "Then what should we do?"
Pardo and Bronya turned their gazes toward Su Mu.
"Just continue with the stream; don't worry about Kiana." Su Mu's response left them both stunned.
"But won't that mess up your plan?"
Su Mu shrugged. "Do you think I don't know how much Kiana procrastinates? That's why I told her to be here by 10:00 AM; in reality, I planned for her to depart at 10:00 AM from the start."
"Eh?" Bronya and Pardo blinked in confusion.
"She'll probably arrive on the scene about twenty minutes into your stream. It'll be just right." Su Mu gave a rough estimate.
Pardo was startled. "For real? Brother Su Mu, you even calculated that?"
Su Mu rolled his eyes. "It's not that I calculated it, it's just Kiana being Kiana..."
Pardofelis nodded, but she felt a strange sensation. Not only did Su Mu seem to understand everyone in the Golden Courtyard, but he also seemed to know Kiana and Bronya far too well. It felt as if he had known them for a very long time...
Soon, as the launch time for Honkai Impact 3rd arrived, Pardo and Elysia officially started the official stream!
"Hi! Hello everyone, I'm Pardo!"
"Hello, I'm Elysia! Are you surprised to see the Pink Elf appearing in the stream~?"
[Holy crap? Pardo?]
[Isn't this the Honkai Impact 3rd stream? Did I go to the wrong place?]
[Isn't that Elysia next to her!]
[!! My two favorite streamers are streaming together! This is too great!!]
Due to the previous success of Getting Over It, Pardo's follower count across the web had reached a terrifying level, making her a top-tier streamer in the gaming category. Her appearance naturally caused a huge stir in the chat. As for Elysia, her fame wasn't quite as high as Pardo's yet, but the Pink Elf was simply too beautiful! Just seeing such a beautiful girl appearing on screen caused the audience—regardless of gender—to be collectively captivated by Elysia's exquisite looks!
[Is that beautiful pink-haired girl called Elysia? I'm following her right now!]
[I have to follow her now!]
After a short opening, Pardo and Elysia didn't waste any more words. They immediately launched the PC version of Honkai Impact 3rd and began the live gameplay!
Su Mu's original intention for this stream was to attract players who might be sitting on the fence, giving them a deeper understanding of Honkai Impact 3rd. Additionally, it was specifically meant for office workers and students who were slacking off and couldn't play themselves... and to provide a beginner's guide for those who had just started and were feeling lost! With two beautiful girls like Pardo and Elysia personally teaching how to play Honkai 3rd, the audience would likely pay more attention than they did in class!
Most importantly, Su Mu never treated people unfairly. The massive hype brought by Honkai Impact 3rd would naturally benefit Pardo and Elysia! The followers converted from this stream were Su Mu's way of looking out for them!
"Honkai Impact 3rd, launch!"
As Pardofelis's voice fell, the stream officially began!
