That is what she saw when she woke up for today. Some boxes are besides her bed.
Her drowsiness was gone when she managed to process what's the meaning of the completion of these objectives.
She immediately opened her computer and look through her Chirper account.
She can see some emails on her way.
Reading some of it, she learned that the video about her being tested on the admin only server was publicized by the GOS website itself and it was proven that she was not cheating after all.
So she looks at the website of the GOS itself and saw that in their front page, the video of her was posted in it. There is also a following entry that says that she was wrongfully accused of being a Cheater when she was just playing normally like any other players.
They also gave the reason that she have an above the norms reflexes that can only be done by the top 3 players of the game, as seen by the video posted above.
The names of the nine players that she was playing with yesterday, including the face of Japan on GOS PF_Yanjiro, was reprimanded by the management and they faced a one week suspension due to "Cyber Bullying".
As to why it came to that, many of their fans attack her in her social media accounts, thus the management gave this suspension. They asks the nine to reflect on this and manage their viewer based on their stream.
They also stated that their game is not for people who have a biased view about who should be right and who should be wrong. They asks the many players of this game to decrease their toxicity when it comes to new players.
It seems like the management was also having a large headache due to the many so called "Pro Players" being unjustly mad to other players who are still new to the game. This shows the elitism side of these players, thinking themselves that they are the only right ones to play this game and the others are not.
They also asks the others to report, only if they are sure the player is really cheating or not. Kotomi was a false positive because she was just that good at her gameplay.
Of course, if this is a normal punishment for the management of this game, they would have suspended the responsible party for six months and ban them for playing any tournaments for a whole year. It is their usual punishment to those who are just too toxic on their gaming.
But because Kotomi looks like cheating if no one saw her gameplay so they also understood why the pros like Yanjiro mistook her for cheating.
In fact, they are only reprimanded because of their toxic and malicious fans.
If this is Kotomi's former world, this would not be such a big deal. It's just an FPS game and they shouldn't be doing this much for a falsely accused player.
But this world, like how Vtubers became a commonality, also regards E-Sports in a serious manner. It is much more important than real sports.
Due to computer dominating the daily lives of the people of this world, playing computer games or mobile games was highly regarded by any countries. Each countries wants to show they have better players because this also shows that they are much better at technology than the other countries.
Playing computer games also increased their knowledge about computer in general. There are also many games in this age where a lot of complex commands are needed just to function in a game.
Anyway, games are highly regarded in this world more than the real sports. It is a pride of their country if they have many players who are competent in many genres of games.
Most gamers even become an internet celebrity that will be invited to TV Studios and radio stations for them to cast on it.
So having this kind of stain in their name would also be a bad thing on Japan. Though it would also be bad for them if they try to antagonized Kotomi.
Due to this publicity, a lot of people learned of her name and they now are curious of her. And because of this, Phoenix Force and Fatality Gaming can't condemn her now because they would be scorned by the public if they still try to attack her when she was already proven to be innocent.
"... Oh, I'm sorry..."
But she was not glad to have cleared her name. She felt it was her fault now because Yanjiro and the others acquired a bad mark in their name.
"... Right, I should apologize to them in one of my streams." She decided like that. It's also for her self-satisfaction.
Then, she moves to her Chirper account and tell them that her ban will be lifted in 1:15 PM though she will still end her stream in 2 PM.
After that, she finally started cleaning her room, cleaning herself, and eating some breakfast before going back to her computer.
Though she didn't prepare her streaming equipments for now. It is still 8 AM. It's too early for her to stream.
So she decided to look at her new rewards that she acquired.
"So... this is the first time I acquire a capsule."
She said as she take an All Status Capsule on the box that appeared besides her bed.
She then tried one of it. It quickly melted on her tongue and she can't understand it, by the taste seems somewhat sweet.

"Oh... so it seems like instead of five, it gives 10 score on my status." She said before looking at her other status boosting consumables.
Then she uses all of it. It doesn't give any stomachaches or something so she wasn't worried when eating all of it.

"... Now I am much more stronger now than awhile ago." She said while looking at the ridiculous leap on her status.
After awhile, she decided to look at the other items that she acquired.
She first look at the new item that she doesn't know of, the Crystal Chest.
[Crystal Chest]
Class : A
A system exclusive package containing items that will help the user in her endeavors to become the strongest Vtuber in the multiverse. Contains 10 random Class C ~ Class A items.
That suddenly appeared on her vision when she tried touching the treasure chest.
"... Is this like those item packages on RPGs?" She muttered unconsciously before she tried opening it.
When she opened it, light shines through inside it and then many prompts appeared in front of her face.
[Success Ticket +2]
[5 XB Hard Drive]
[Camera Set C]
[128 GB Ram (Omni) +2]
[All Status Bar]
[Zeus Blade]
[Outfit "Witch Costume 3"]
[Installer "Streaming App B"]
There is an item there that was not really related to anything about streaming but anyway, she checks all the items she acquired after the light subsides.
It seems like the crystal chest was now gone. In it's place are 10 items lined up on the floor.
She doesn't know the use of any of it. She can only make a guess on it.
It seems like only the chest gives some info when she touches it. Though it was gone now.
Though she was excited to immediately put a lot of it in her computer, her focus was glued at one of the items that she got. Specifically, the sword that was lying on the ground.
She tried carrying it and felt that it was somewhat heavy in her hands. Though she can easily carry it.
Some crackles of electricity crawls through the blade. Though this doesn't ground her at all. It felt like it was welcoming her as it's new wielder.
"... Why did my power give me a sword? Does this really have something to do on me becoming a Vtuber?"
She thought with a confused expression before looking at her other items that she got.
She can't see something that she reads awhile ago though.
"Wait, where is the Witch Costume?"
She asks before looking around on her room. Though, she can't see even when she tried going around her room.
Then, she have an epiphany. With that in her mind, she go to her computer and opened the application where her model is saved.
From there, she can see a new option there that was not even a part of that application nor she even created.
It was an entirely new model of Sakaguchi Kotomi wearing a Witch Uniform with a Halloween motif on it. Or in short, there are bats and pumpkin designs on along with a bat hair clip and some pumpkin designed accessories.
"... How... wait, what if this got accidentally deleted?"
To make sure if her fears are true, she tried tampering with the model. But it seems like she can't even do anything about it. Even trying to delete it doesn't do anything at all.
"... Then, what if I use a different computer?"
She wanted to try that but she can't because she doesn't have any backup computers anywhere in her room.
Then she looked at the hard drive that she acquired in her system awhile ago.
With that, she immediately shuts down her computer and replaced her hard drive with this new hard drive. Then she booted up her computer again.
It seems like it have the same OS as the old hard drive that she was using awhile ago.
There are not much applications inside it so she go to the basic browser of that computer and downloaded everything she needs for her streaming and also for browsing, along with the games.
After that, she booted up the streaming application that she always uses. From there, she can see the 3D model that she created and also the new model of her wearing a witch uniform.
"... Oh, it just magically passed over to this hard drive even though it was only saved on the old hard drive that I am using." She said in amazement.
After confirming that her model and her new Halloween style model will carry over even if she changes hard drives, she shuts it down before going back to the other items she still have.
As for the Zeus Blade, she decided to put it on the corner of her bed. She doesn't know what she should be doing with that and she wasn't really planning to fight anyone or something so she just put it there. She will think about that sword next time.
For now, she was busy at her other equipments that she acquired.
It seems like the Camera Set have a lot of cameras in it and a lot of other equipments along with it that are related to capturing a video. There are also two drone cameras and a mini laptop dedicated to controlling all of these cameras. It seems like she can also connect that mini laptop on her main computer and uses the application inside that mini laptop to control the focus of perspectives on each of those cameras when she was streaming.
Though, she would need to be good at multitasking if she wants to possibly do that.
Other than that, there is also the ridiculous pair of RAMs that she acquired on the Crystal Chest. It seems like it was compatible to any types of motherboards.
After putting all of that, she finally took the disc that she acquired. It said that it was a streaming application. She believes in her power that it was useful so she installed it in her computer.
She opened the CD ROM of her computer and then put it inside it. After a short wait, it quickly loads and now it was asking her if she wants to install it automatically or manually.
Of course she wants to install it automatically. She doesn't know what to do if she do it manually.
After some seconds, it was done installing and a new icon appeared. It was the icon of YouTube but instead of a white play button in the center of it, it was a large letter V in white on it.
She double clicks that and then it quickly opens up. Then it quickly loaded everything she needed for streaming as a Vtuber.
"Wow! This application already have anything I need. It seems like it already put everything I need as a Vtuber into one application."
She was amazed at the application. Though it was pretty complex if some newbie uses this, because she was streaming for two weeks now and she have a higher learning comprehension due to her status so she knows what each of the tools can do. It also doesn't eat up on her computer's memory. Basically, it was a super streaming app for Vtubers. Even her models are inside it!
After finishing with all of that, she finally look at the chocolate bar that she acquired on the Crystal Chest. It was the All Status Bar. It have a colorful sheen on it.
She tried eating. It quickly melts in her tongue. Then the tastes exploded in her taste bud. Again, she can't describe what is the taste of it other than it was the most delicious thing she ever tasted in her life.
After she was done eating all of it, a prompt appeared on her vision.
[Physique +100]
[Fitness +100]
[Wisdom +100]
[Creativity +100]
[Talent +100]
[Charisma +100]
[Essence +100]
"... What?"
She was surprise at the results after she was done eating that chocolate bar.
When it was 1:15 PM, she finally started her stream.
"Hello everyone, this is Sakaguchi Kotomi desu!~~"
She is still using her high schooler model, the original model of her virtual persona. She decided to use the witch version of her when it was November.
"I see your messages to me on Chirper. Thank you for believing in me!~~" she sadi while waving her hands at the screen.
Her HC was now open and it seems like there are 500+ viewers on her today. They are telling her that it was alright and they are glad that she was back. They are also glad that she was only suspended for 24 hours.
"Now then, I decided to play GOS tomorrow. Well, we only have a short time now and I don't want to extend to my streaming schedule. I apologize if this stream will become a short one." She said while bowing her head in apology for a little to her audience.
They said that it was just okay and she shouldn't apologize that much. They are also looking forward to her playing GOS.
Though, it seems like one of them just have to asks this question.
Mark Silver :
(500 Yen)
I think it was KumaSniper's fault that it became like that yesterday. He kept calling you a noob which causes those watching their stream to direct their anger at you.
That is what he asks.
As for the reason why he said that, it was because of KumaSniper that she was being sniped at by their fans. On GOS, fans of popular players like Yanjiro hates watching noobs. They are watching Yanjiro and the others because they want to see a good game that will leave them in awe.
So just hearing the word noob at the mouth of one of the pros, of course many of their fans will immediately think that "Yeah, that chick is a noob".
And what if that noob suddenly killed all the enemy players, with the most unbelievable one being Yanjiro dying. Of course, that noob will turn into a cheater in the fans' perception.
And because they didn't see how she killed Yanjiro and the others due to only seeing KumaSniper's stream, of course they would think that she was cheating due to the rapid logs of her wiping the terrorist side out.
Of course, those who saw the streams of the players on the terrorist side also didn't understand how she moves. It was too fast for their eyes. I mean, she only dealt with them for less than fifteen seconds.
So because the people they are idolizing was calling her as a cheater, they too also think that she was a cheater.
And that's just because KumaSniper said that she was a noob.
Naturally, she should be angry about it.
But she wasn't. In fact...
"Well, I think it was my fault that it happens. I don't know what I did but I am sure there is something wrong that I did. I heard that they Yanjiro and the others were suspended on the game for a week and I felt guilty about that." She said with somber tone. "That's why, I apologize to everything I did. I didn't intend to do it. To show you that I am truly apologizing, I will draw an art of support for Fatality Gaming and Phoenix Force. This might be not enough to apologize but I hope you accept this apology." She bowed a little after saying that.
After that, she opened her paint tool and immediately draw the symbol of both teams from Japan.
In just less than five minutes, she was done drawing the two symbols.
Then she draw two person below the symbols of Fatality Gaming and Phoenix Force. She was planning to draw Yanjiro on the Terrorist side and then KumaSniper on the Counter Terrorist side. With their outfit being the same one that their character wore when they are playing yesterday.
"So I found out that these two are well-known in Japan. Like, they are invited to some Talk Shows or something. So I remember their faces and currently, I was drawing them in their game character's costume." She was saying that while she was moving her mouse and using many hotkeys to quickly changes her tool and put it on the drawing.
While she was doing that, her chat log was amazed at her own humility. She didn't throw a tantrum or anything and even felt guilty about it.
Though some people will say this is a publicity stunt or just some sort of drama, the people watching her felt the sincerity in her words when she said that.
This is because of her Charisma. Charisma just doesn't show her appeal to the others, it also makes it easier for her to convey her emotion to the others. It also let's it easier for her to convey the message that she was trying to say to the one she is directing her emotions.

"Thank you for all your supports. Yes, thanks for following me. No, I am not an angel. And thanks for donating to my channel. And as always, thank you Guugure for always being there. Of course I love all of you!~~"
She was just unconsciously replying to the many comments that came on her way while at the same time resuming her drawing.
After 40 minutes, she was finally done.
It was a picture of Yanjiro and KumaSniper and on their back are the teammates that they have yesterday on their respective sides with their in-game names above their heads and below the illustration are the words "I Hope You Get Well And Play Again Sooner, Go Japan!"
And while it was somewhat awkward, she thinks she wrote it right because the two people on the front literally represents Japan when it comes to GOS and FPS games in general.
"Now then, I will end my stream here now. This is you forever 17 years old highschool girl, Sakaguchi Kotomi. See you next time!~~"
She waved her hands at her audiences before stopping her stream there.
"Phew... now it was finally done. She said with a sigh of relief.
After that, she quickly goes back to her original model and make more improvements on it. Other than that, she also go back to the GOS site to read the many articles about it.
She spent her whole day doing just that.

A/N
So before you complain about whatever happened in this story, all I can say is that Kotomi's trait is timid.
Even if it's not her fault, she will still think it was hers because others said it. Of course she will deny something if she was very sure that she is not the one who did a wrong thing but if she was unsure, she will just take it and blame herself for it.
She doesn't know if she was cheating or not because for her, she was cheating due to her abilities. Due to this confusion, she can't help but think that maybe, she was really doing something wrong on the game and so she apologizes.
This explanation might not be enough to convince you but that's just how Kotomi acts. Sorry if it was pretty submissive for your taste...
As for the Exobyte thing, even me doesn't know where that came from. I think I read somewhere that it was much higher than Terabytes or maybe that was just my delusions and I just made that up?
Will, if it wasn't existent, just take that small detail with a grain of salt.
Review if you like, helpful comments are welcome and thanks for reading this!~~
