Chapter 231 - Get Into A Scandal

Her last video had been posted for about four hours at this point and she really wanted to see how it had done. The game she had played was somewhat unconventional and not many people had been featuring it on their channels. It was a multi-part series and if it didn\'t do really well, she would have to rush through it. She frankly enjoyed the game, so she didn\'t want to do that.

For now, she wouldn\'t let the statistics bog down her creativity. She wanted to play games because she loved it. She would stop posting when it became a chore. She had promised herself that.

She blinked when she saw the views and the number of comments. She was used to seeing a hundred thousand views and hundreds of comments but the results she saw were staggering. One million views and thousands of comments.

"Did I get into a scandal?" she muttered to herself. Feeling jittery. Something had done wrong and too many people had crowded her channel. As she scrolled through the comments, she saw compliments on her gaming skills and the food she had cooked. That was pretty standard. But she seemed to be trending... again.

That is when she saw the most liked comment. Seven thousand plus likes already and it had been a couple of hours.

[LazerBoi: I wish I could eat this food while I played. Fantastic gameplay!]

Standard comment. Nothing too fancy or worth mentioning. The only thing was the person posting the comment. The reason why the video had become so popular was suddenly clear.

LazerBoi had commented on her video. Most people on the platform knew who this man was. Twenty-eight years old, the king of gaming on the platform with over twenty-five million followers. He was most famous for playing flash games and reacting to Reddit posts. He uploaded two videos a day and had been on the platform for over ten years.

He was one of the original content creators when the platform was launched. He was, indeed, a legend in these circles. Moreover, he was an attractive man. His gameplays may have attracted the gamers, but loads of casual fans dropped by because of his wicked looks sense of humor. Safe to say he had a lot of fangirls. A winning combination, in her opinion.

But what the hell was he doing in her comments section? How did he find her? He always commented on how he never really watched other gamers on the internet because he felt lost if he did so. So, it was a huge deal.

Also, how was she supposed to reply? It\'s not like she could completely ignore him. She would be slaughtered.

Not knowing what to do, she texted Lily and Angelina on their group chat.

[Katherine: It seems that someone popular has taken notice of me.]

She smiled when she saw Lily\'s reply.

[Lily: You found out just now? Isn\'t he your boyfriend already?]

Why, yes, he was. But not the man she was referring to.

[Katherine: Not Cage. A popular creator LazerBoi commented. Somehow, I have millions of views on a video I posted five hours ago.]

[Angelina: What a dumb name. Let me check.]

There was radio silence for the next half an hour before she got a group call from her friends.

"I can\'t believe this," Lily commented. She seemed excited, but it was subdued when compared to Angelina.

"Have the deities been taking mercy on you recently?" Angelina joked. "This man has as many followers as a small country has citizens." She seemed to be in awe.

"Well, no need to be starstruck. You need to think of a nice way to reply to him," Lily commented.

"I can\'t believe it. How do you think he found me?" Katherine asked. She was still staring at the comment. So far, whenever she refreshed the page her stats would spike up.

"Check if he follows you," Angelina asked quickly. "Just a comment won\'t make people flood to your channel. There must be something else."

Lo and behold. He had, indeed followed her. Her eyes widened. "Holy shit, he has."

"Check on your other social media. I think his followers got wind of it and came in throngs to see who you are." That was safe.

"I\'ll do it later. For now, what do you guys think I should reply? I don\'t want to reply..." she trailed off. She was doing just fine with her followers, now she felt like this would lead to something bigger.

"Are you crazy?" Lily stared at her, appalled. "Of course you have to. You reply to other top comments and you shouldn\'t discriminate." That was a fair point.

"I understand that, but what do I reply to this comment?" she groaned.

"Type it out..." Angelina started. She said the words and waited for Katherine to type it out.

[Rinsten: I\'d be happy to pass the recipe along. :D]

"Doesn\'t this sound a little flirty?" Katherine asked nervously. Lily scoffed and Angelina rolled her eyes.

"Are you listening to yourself? You just told him you would give him the recipe. Not invite him over to your house for dinner." Angelina commented. An idea seemed to cross her mind. "Maybe, you could do that, too!"

"Don\'t say that," Lily reprimanded sternly. "Katherine\'s situation is a bit different. She has to consider a lot of things. If a collaboration presents itself, she needs to ask Cage and Stephen before she finalizes. Her channel is in its infancy and she is still learning about the industry." Lily was always the wiser one.

"I won\'t be calling him over to my place. Don\'t worry. Anyway, he lives in another town." She shrugged.

The conversation ended soon enough and they went back to work.

She didn\'t check her social media for the rest of the day. She had already answered someone famous and didn\'t want to think about his reply.

She totally considered collaborating with LazerBoi because it would benefit her, but she would talk to Cage about it before making any decision. For now, she would wait for a reply.
