The day for my last broadcast had arrived.

“So it really came, this day.”

I muttered to myself, though no one was around.

I had already informed the viewers. It was officially the last broadcast.

Pressing the start button for the broadcast felt bittersweet, knowing it was for the last time. I steadied my mind and began the broadcast.

[PleaseShakeACarrot: Hello~!]

[OnlyFinley: Hi hi!!]

[Stress: hi]

[Gold2: The day has finally come lol]

[FlowerFlute: Already feeling sadㅠㅠ]

[Poppopo: hi hi]

Familiar usernames appeared. They were regulars who had been part of most of my broadcasts.

[Ian: Hello]

And even our big spender.

Everyone was present. It was the largest number of viewers I had seen to date.

For the last broadcast, I decided to do it in my room, where it all began. Just like the first broadcast, I started it simply, from my room.

“It reminds me of the first broadcast, doesn’t it?”

[PleaseShakeACarrot: lol that was funny]

[MadelineTastesGood: lol]

[Gold2: Ah, brings back memories]

[Something: Back then lol]

Along with me, the viewers dived into nostalgia. Though I couldn’t see them, I felt like everyone was wearing a happy expression.

[Plong: It was funny when you met Porbel]

[PleaseShakeACarrot: Epic chance lol lol lol]

[OnlyFinley: Eric! Eric!]

[Poppopo: That was intense]

Kabir and Eric, both encounters were from the beginning.

Back then, I never thought I’d become as close to them as I am now. It was nothing short of intense.

[Ryu: I liked Irmin too]

[OnlyFinley: Jamonㅠㅠㅠㅠ]

[Gold2: Those twins were a headache]

[PleaseShakeACarrot: But they were cute lol]

Honestly, I didn’t have much affection for Irmin. But I became quite close with Jamon. I was proud that the two brothers had reconciled peacefully. I thought I was just playing around, but it felt like I had accomplished something.

[Poppopo: Did Selena manage to talk about her relationship with Finley]

[FlowerFlute: I’m curious!]

[Plong: Selenaㅠㅠ]

I was curious about that too. I shrugged my shoulders.

“We’ll be visiting the duke’s house soon. We’ll ask then.”

In fact, there was still one more thing left for me to do.

To ensure Selena safely ascends to the position of the duchess. I felt like I needed to see Selena reveal her relationship to the Duke of Erpeso before I could leave with peace of mind.

[Ian: Why are you leaving out Davi]

[Poppopo: Wait, man]

[Stress: Shailo had it tough lol]

I couldn’t leave out the people from the temple. They were the ones who contributed the most to my safe and successful broadcasting career.

Although my secret got out in the middle, I was relieved that it didn’t lead to any major issues.

‘Anyway, I’ll meet those people again.’

With divine power involved, they wouldn’t be able to forget about me. Conversely, everyone else would forget everything.

Then, a familiar person appeared in the chat.

[Manager: I’m a bit late]

It was Hans.

[Stress: The manager is late for the last broadcast lol]

[Manager: Be quiet]

Hans was usually the first to join my broadcasts. He must have been held up by something.

[PleaseShakeACarrot: What kept you?]

[Manager: You lot kept asking me to tally the points]

[Poppopo: oh]

[Gold2: Gotta spend it all before it ends lol]

Finally, the moment I had been waiting for arrived. Time to collect.

They must think there’s no use for points anymore, so they’d be spending them all.

Just as I expected, the angels began to generously donate their points.

[Poppopo has donated 100,000 points!]

– 1st round

[Poppopo has donated 200,000 points!]

– 2nd round

[Poppopo has donated 300,000 points!]

– 3rd round

[Gold2: Just do it all at once]

[Isaac: He likes the attention, I tell you]

[Something has donated 703,200 points!]

– That’s it for me

[Stress: Wow, impressive]

[Gold2 has donated 1,200,000 points!]

– Thanks for everything

[OnlyFinley: Wow, he really had saved up]

[PleaseShakeACarrot has donated 500,000 points!]

– I save the best for last lol

[OnlyFinley has donated 500,000 points!]

– Me too

Big points were poured in all at once. These people had been saving up their points all this time and spending them sparingly.

[PleaseShakeACarrot: Why isn’t Ian donating? lol]

[Ian: Got to save it]

[Stress: What’s the point of saving now lol lol lol lol]

I was silently watching as the chat became lively. They were making a big deal out of it being the last broadcast. It was a gracious gesture for me.

[Lloading: Now it’s the manager’s turn!]

[PleaseShakeACarrot: Drumroll]

[AsparagusCharm: This is the most exciting part lol]

The angels were also looking forward to it. How many points did Hans really have?

[Manager: I’ll give it at the end]

[Gold2: No, it has to be now]

[PleaseShakeACarrot: Yeah, now is the perfect time]

[Something: agree agree]

Though I couldn’t see him, I could imagine Hans sighing.

Finally, as if resigned, a donation message popped up.

[Manager has donated 10,000,000 points!]

“……?”

For a moment, I thought I read it wrong.

‘Did he just donate ten million points in one go?’

The reincarnation points piled up in an instant, all from a single person’s donation.

Not only I was stunned, the chat erupted.

[PleaseShakeACarrot: ?]

[Stress: What am I looking at right now]

[MadelineTastesGood: What’s happening?]

[Poppopo: You definitely have more points left, right?]

[Manager: No comment]

I felt somewhat sorry realizing how much work he must have done to accumulate so many points.

While I was still in shock, Hans posted another message.

[Manager: You’ve worked hard all this time.]

It was a sincere message.

It touched me a bit. It was a moment that made the final broadcast feel real.

With the points all collected, it was time to reveal the truth.

I took a deep breath before speaking.

“I have something to tell you all.”

[Stress: Why so serious]

“The truth is today’s broadcast being the last is a lie.”

The chat went silent for a moment.

[Ian: lol]

Only Ian’s message appeared. The composure of someone who already knew.

Chat messages then started flooding in as everyone regained their senses.

[Gold2: Did you scam us???]

[AsparagusCharm: My points]

[Poppopo: Even you, I trusted you]

[OnlyFinley: This isn’t right, Anais…….]

“Calm down. Today’s broadcast is indeed the last one as ‘Anais’.”

I didn’t technically lie. It was indeed the last broadcast as ‘Anais’.

I calmly explained.

“I will undergo reincarnation. But in this world, with a new body. And I’ll continue broadcasting.”

[Stress: What]

[PleaseShakeACarrot: ?]

[Plong: ???]

[Isaac: What did I just hear]

As expected, the reaction was massive. So many question marks filled the chat that it was hard to read.

Hans was equally shocked.

[Manager: What]

[Manager: Then why did you set the mood for the last broadcast]

“Well, I needed to collect reincarnation points.”

I had to say it was the last broadcast so that everyone would donate all their points. I had a crafty side.

“Especially from Hans, I had a lot to collect.”

[Manager: Hey]

[Manager: You just wait]

Shortly after he said that, there was a knock at the window.

As expected, Hans was there with an annoyed expression.

I smoothly opened the window for him. Hans promptly entered the room.

“Hey.”

“Yes, what is it?”

“Is this a joke?”

Seeing his reaction, it seemed my actions caused him quite a bit of heartache. Hans looked genuinely troubled.

He began to question me, seemingly unable to comprehend the situation.

“Initially, you could have just honestly revealed it, right? If we were going to see each other again, I would have gladly given the points.”

“Well…”

I answered as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

“There had to be some drama.”

It was a broadcaster’s basic skill.

To create a significant event out of a trivial topic and bring joy to the audience.

That was my role, after all.

Hans grabbed my cheeks.

“You think you’re clever, huh?”

“Ouch―”

“That means it hurts!”

…Well, I can’t deny that this time I did trick them a bit to get the points. But it’s true I didn’t lie.

Regardless, the viewers’ reactions were positive.

[PleaseShakeACarrot: So we can still watch your broadcasts??!]

[Gold2: A new life lol sounds fun]

[OnlyFinley: We won’t see Finley anymoreㅠㅠ]

[Poppopo: With a new body, you might still interact with the original crew]

[Lloading: Wow, that’s going to be so exciting!!!]

Such positive angels. Even though they could have been as angry as Hans, there wasn’t a single viewer expressing anger.

“At least with Hans’s help, reincarnation is decided now.”

I grinned while rubbing my cheeks, still sore from Hans’s grip.

“I hope for your continued support, Hans.”

“…….”

Instead of responding, Hans just sighed deeply, a hint of a smile on his lips.

“Alright, me too.”

Hans had gotten used to this new version of me. I smiled back at him.
