101. The essence of Luca
[Ugh~ Our Pingtuk group likes this kind of thing~]
Luca’s voice is as if he is handling a child.
Luca grabbed the camera and waved it around like he was playing with children.
[Lu…Luka! Please!]
[Ugh!!!!]
[I’m motion sick! Stop!!]
[ㄱㅇㅇ]
[Arrr~ Pintukkun, everyone pretends not to like it when in fact they like it.]
It was dizzy, but honestly, it was good.
January 1st.
The broadcast on New Year’s Day continued until dawn.
The Closer members who said that the broadcast would end late because they started it late actually ended the broadcast only after 3 o’clock.
[Rain… Although Luca Land has not aged, please take care of her in the future as well.]
Luca blushed and turned away from her.
Everyone knew that it was casting and acting, but who were we?
[Luca-tan, please get married this year!!]
[Please take care of us this year too!]
[Kiyaaa]
[Happy New~ Happy New~]
[Oh my! Want more? I shouldn’t have told you in advance~]
As I shook the camera even more violently, I couldn’t stand it anymore.
Doya… Please think about us, the viewers, too…
[Everyone seems to have enjoyed it enough, so we’ll end today’s broadcast.]
Viewers all asked for more broadcasts to see if there was any lingering feelings left, but Luca had a clear cause.
[Hey guys. Even if I look like this, I’m the last one in Closer, right?]
In fact, the remaining Closer members have already finished broadcasting one by one.
Luca was a righteous person who stayed until the end and worked hard on the broadcast.
[We will prepare a lot of fun content this year as well. Let’s meet again next time! Hi!!]
-The broadcast has ended.
It’s a shame.
The most common thought was that it was disappointing.
The new avatars for the New Year were so cute, and it was so fun to just spend time sharing the same emotions in the corner of the room.
If I were to say the things I said in chat in real life, it was clear that everyone would look at me strangely, but not here now.
The inside of the chat window, where everyone was having fun chatting and chatting happily, was a space like home.
Doa. Do you think you’ve sorted it all out by now?
It has become routine for me to pick you up at the studio when I finish work late in the morning, but I feel like I will be there a little later today.
As I was debating whether to contact him first or not, I took out my cell phone.
[Hello?]
[Uh. It’s a doya. Should I go pick you up now?]
[Brother. Aren’t you going on a VR date?]
Very lively voice.
He usually gets tired around the clock, but today he seemed more energetic than I expected.
[If you’re tired, you can do it later.]
[Ah. I got to meet my brother and take a nap, and the broadcast time wasn’t that long, so I think it was okay.]
[Then can I turn it on right now?]
[I’ll invite you in just 5 minutes!]
[Ah… That.]
If I were to ask you what kind of avatar you should bring here, it would be too much of a stretch.
Also, if I showed myself being too obsessed with Luca for no reason, Doa might get upset.
[Why?]
[Ah. I thought we were friends.]
[We did it before when we were team members. It couldn’t have been deleted, right?]
[A. Why are you deleting it?]
[I don’t know. I might have flirted with a girl wearing a cute avatar that was friendly and different.]
She seemed to know that even though she was saying it, she was making no sense, and towards the end, laughter was heard.
[Anyway! It doesn’t come every day, so take a seat!]
[Yes!]
She feels this every time Doa does Luca’s voice, but there were times when she suddenly felt like her loyalty was increasing.
It’s as if the instinct of a pintuk is imprinted in one’s DNA.
That seemed to be the most appropriate expression.
After hanging up the phone, I turned on the game launch program and for the first time in a while, I flipped over the earthen pot that Doa had given me as a gift.
-Tidding
When I turned on the headset, the first thing I noticed was the battery.
What? Wasn’t it charged?
I desperately search for the cable with my invisible eyes.
VR headsets, like other electronic devices, had low batteries, so charging was essential.
Even the charging speed was quite fast, so I inserted the charger into the left side like a doctor giving a blood transfusion to an emergency patient.
“Whoa…”
Your blood pressure is stabilizing.
VR World booted up and a familiar start screen came into view.
Standing in front of the mirror, I transformed into the avatar I had downloaded before.
It was a character that looked like a man with nothing special.
There are some things that resemble me in real life, but the biggest difference is my golden hair.
White blonde hair that is often seen in games.
As I stood in front of the mirror and turned my body around, I immediately clicked the accept button when I received the invitation message.
A loading page appears, and the environment I imagined surrounding me changes.
…Where are we?
It was my first time seeing a map.
At least it was a map that didn’t appear on Luca’s broadcast.
It felt like a house that could exist somewhere.
The visual is closer to a cabin from a Western fairy tale than a Korean-style apartment or home.
There was a fire in the fireplace that wasn’t hot even if you put your hand in it, and a small Christmas tree was decorated next to it.
[Hello?]
I wondered where Doa was, so I spoke into the air as if I was talking to a ghost, and I heard an answer from the other side of her.
[Oppa!]
If this place where I am now is the living room, then Doa’s voice can be heard from inside.
When I press the interaction button to open the door and enter, what is waiting for me there.
[Ta-da!]
[Oh…]
Smooth white shoulders come into view.
And the cleavage that can be seen at a glance inside.
The avatar Doa brought was a special edition that she had already seen during Christmas.
It was Luca with pigtails.
[How do you feel? This?]
[Ugh. So pretty. Of course.]
I could say it again and again.
I’m telling Luca that he’s cute and pretty.
This is something I’ve been doing in the chat window all day.
[Come and sit here.]
Luca’s avatar sitting on the bed.
I swallowed her saliva and sat down next to her.
[Did you enjoy today’s broadcast?]
[Yes.]
[I think I had a lot of fun today too.]
Luca, who sat next to her, began to tell the story behind today’s merger.
A story about Clover almost being late.
Reaction when the illustration was pre-released by the company.
It is said that meetings regarding the second album have also begun.
[Hand. Would you like to give it to me?]
As I moved the controller toward the air, our hands overlapped.
[How do you feel? Still, do you like Luca better?]
[What does that mean?]
[I wonder if Luca is better even if I can’t reach him like this.]
Luca moves her hand a little further in front of her.
In the VR world, an avatar is like an illusion.
Her hand passed right through my body and went to the other side of the bed.
[I never said Luca was better.]
It was true that her heart was pounding, but there was no lie in what I said.
[When did I say that Luca was better?]
[Aha. So is it okay to turn it off now?]
Doa said she was thrilled, but my body stiffened.
[Then it’s okay to just go see my brother now!]
I knew that if a man said something, he had to keep it.
A. f*ck. Does that matter now?
[Us. How about hanging out here just a little longer?]
Exchanging ugliness for pleasure.
Okay… If not now, when will Doa turn it on again?
Luca’s eyes show contempt.
[Wow… Oppa…]
It is a reward to have facial expressions that you only see on TV recreated right in front of you.
It was also a very large reward.
[It’s really too much!]
When Luca tried to hit me with her fist, I pretended to hit her right away.
I’ve wanted to try this for a while.
Luca blinked her eyes in bewilderment as she fell and got up from her actual body.
[No… Did you really fall? No! Why did you do that?]
[Because I want to try it.]
It was just the wishful thinking of a passing Pintuk 1.
[Really…]
From noble mtl dot com
Luca laughs as if he is dumbfounded.
[Ugh… Well, if there’s something you want to try, try it today.]
[What do you want to try?]
[I thought there was at least one thing I wanted to try whenever I met Luca.]
There are many.
There are so many that it is a problem.
With all kinds of devils in my head, I worked hard to spin my brain.
Should I ask them to sell it to me with a look of contempt?
Or just as sweet as a real lover?
No. Since I’m the boyfriend, it’s a little more than that.
This is what I wanted to do with that pink haired character.
[Kiss. Can I try it?]
I knew it would be rejected, so I prepared a second plan.
For some reason, Doa obediently agreed to grant my request.
[Where do you want to do it?]
[…Ball?]
[Yes. Then.]
Move your face towards empty space where there is nothing in reality.
My avatar overlapping with her avatar.
Regardless of the action, I couldn’t feel any texture on my lips.
When I lifted my head, there was Lucatan with an alluring smile.
[After all, it feels better to do it on a real Doatang ball, right?]
Luca-tan slowly approached me and whispered in my ear.
[…I’ll be waiting for you in the studio.]
Doah logged out as soon as she finished speaking.
After taking off the VR headset, I was able to come to a clear conclusion.
Luca wasn’t a fox.
The person named Doa was just a fire fox.
I hastily put on my padding.
