Loli Vtuber 139

Test

Chapter 139. [High Scale]


"Never thought it would be a passing by..."

Anguogoo collapsed, tears streaming down slowly.

C-Come on, don't get so down.

"This is all Iroha-chan's fault~", "Ah-! Iroha-chan, I made her cry!"

Even Mai, for once, took Anguogoo's side.

And you, A-nee, remember this later.

"It's kind of, well. It was a sad incident, huh?"

"A surprise turning into such a reverse surprise, couldn't have predicted it, geez!"

Even if you say that...

I also think if you had told me [You plan to move to Japan.] earlier. I might have had a chance to say, [I'm moving to America too, you know!].

There must be managers to prevent accidents like this. 

If you're planning a surprise, you need someone responsible for checking if everything is okay beforehand – that's the lesson I learned.

"Ugh, what am I doing this for?"

She started looking pitiable.

Even Mai seemed to show an "I'm on your side" attitude.

"Um, sorry? My bad?"

"You say that while tilting your head!? Sniff. Ah, whatever! That..."

When I was struggling, Angu Ogu raised her voice as if to dispel the tension herself.

Well, her eyes were still resentfully fixed on me, though.

"Why is Iroha going to America?"

"Oh yeah. Well, you see..."

"---She's thinking of 'studying abroad.'."

"Whaat!?"

I'm doing that not from high school, or college.

In middle school 3rd grade, I already intend to go to America.

"Hey, wait a second? Could it be that even if Iroha says she's moving, it doesn't mean she's going right away?"

"Ah, sharp."

Indeed, living in America makes her informed.

Unlike Japan, America has a two-semester system.

Because of that, the timing for grade progression or higher education is different.

Specifically, American schools start around September and end around May.

In other words, by the end of middle school's 2nd year.

At this very moment, there's hardly any school that's accepting study abroad applications.

Because they'd have too much vacation.

"I'll start attending the school over there from late August. However, I plan to move even earlier..."

"Right. I still have some procedures left to complete here, so I can't just move to Japan immediately. But it's not like I can cancel now. I won't be able to be with Iroha much in Japan."

"Haha, that's how it'll turn out, huh?"

"Not 'haha'!?"

Oops, I slipped up. My bad.

After a slight internal struggle, Angu Ogu let out a big sigh.

It seems like she gave up.

Well, there's no way to fix this problem now anyway.

"But, I admit. It's a bit surprising. Going to America at this time and choosing to study abroad – not 'entering high school'."

"That's right!"

The differences between Japanese and American schools also extend to how grades are organized.

Specifically, in America, there are 5 years of elementary school and four years of high school.

"So, Iroha won't be graduating middle school, but will start attending 'high school' over there!"

"That's how it'll be~."

"Huh!? Iroha-chan's skipping grades!?"

"No, it's not like that at all! And besides, I'm sure I explained it to A-nee before!"

"???"

"O-Older sister..."

"Yeah! Maybe I got my memories mixed up!?"

I gave up on explaining to Ah-nee.

She's left behind. It seems she can't follow this topic.

"As of now, I haven't decided to continue attending an American high school as is. That's why it's not entering high school, but studying abroad. After spending about half a year there, I'll come back to Japan and take the high school entrance exams."

The one who made that wish come true was my English teacher.

She found a program that accepted study abroad students and a "well-located" school... [I'm well-connected. This kind of situation is really rare, but don't worry! I finally got Iroha on board, and we can't miss this opportunity!].

She said that and managed to get permission in no time.

She even went as far as scouting the school in America.

"It was just along the way during a visit home. The school and teachers over there seemed great too."

She said that nonchalantly with a smile, but it goes without saying which one was really "along the way."

I can't even sleep with my feet towards that teacher anymore.

And I thought I could never match his level of energy.

Doing this much for others.

I can't do it.

For VTubers, and ultimately for myself.

So, in the end, what I took is a few tests and some online interviews.

And money.

No, seriously.

Studying abroad costs a ton of money, doesn't it!?

Well, fortunately, I don't have to worry about that.

I should do something to show my gratitude to the viewers who support me.

"I never thought Iroha would go to America. After all, the true home of VTubers is Japan, right? Considering the number of events, I never thought you'd leave Japan."

"That's not true at all!!!"

"Huh!? W-What's going on? Why the sudden reaction?"

I leaned forward and refuted Angu Ogu's words.

Could it be she doesn't know?

If that's the case, this is a time for evangelism!
