As soon as I logged out, my heightened senses greeted me.
Especially the discomfort in my abdomen and the dampness I felt in my underwear—it meant that *it* had finally arrived.
“Has it already been a month?”
The stabbing pain in my abdomen, combined with the sticky, soft, and warm sensation in a certain area, was beyond discomfort—it felt like I was about to lose my mind.
Normally, standing or sitting would help expel what’s inside, but since I’ve been lying down, it hasn’t been able to come out.
“Arang, did it go well?”
“Yeah…”
Anna, my older sister, came in after hearing the alarm that went off when I logged out.
Her style has changed a lot since she quit her job. She used to always wear suits, but now that she lives in the room next to mine, she’s dressed more comfortably.
When she wore suits, she had this aura that made it seem like no one could approach her, but now she’s wearing loose pajamas and has her hair braided to one side—it’s actually pretty cute.
“How’s your body?”
“Not great…”
“Let’s get you cleaned up first. Is that okay?”
“Yeah… Sis, I’m really full right now…”
“Got it.”
This has happened before. Since I can’t get up on my own and just lie down, the things that need to come out don’t, and it’s incredibly uncomfortable.
Anna picked me up and headed to the bathroom.
The reason? I’ve basically become a ketchup bottle.
Because of my period, if I don’t expel what’s inside and keep myself clean, it’ll cause problems, so it needs to be done regularly.
Especially since I started my period much later than others my age due to my poor health, the amount is overwhelming.
And I need someone else’s help to deal with it.
Ugh.
If I were in the virtual world, I wouldn’t need anyone’s help, but being forced to come back to reality once a month for a week to deal with my period is the worst.
I don’t mind being a girl, but the one thing I hate is my period.
My already sensitive abdomen becomes even more sharp because of it, and the feeling of someone pressing on my stomach, causing the menstrual blood to gush out…
I hate it so much!

After emptying the ketchup bottle, I returned to the virtual world.
I decided not to play Leore for a while due to mental fatigue, but I was allowed to stay in the virtual world.
You might wonder what I do in the virtual world—well, I can use the internet, so there’s plenty to do.
In reality, no matter how much I want to do something, I can’t operate a phone, computer, or TV because I don’t have limbs, but in the virtual world, it’s possible.
I immediately opened an internet browser and went to my fan cafe.
I created the fan cafe a while ago and handed it over to Pinku, but I haven’t done much with it since.
Thinking about it now, I’m a terrible person.
“Wucha!”
While I was checking the fan cafe, Anna appeared and hugged me.
She lives next to me and, having gotten used to the virtual world, came to my virtual room just in case something happened.
If it were the old me, I might’ve felt a bit uncomfortable, but now I truly think of Anna as my sister, so I don’t feel any discomfort—she’s just my beloved sister.
“What kind of cafe is this?”
“It’s my fan cafe…”
“Huh? Arang’s fan cafe? You have a fan cafe? Why didn’t you tell me? I’ll join right away.”
“Okay… Can you tell me your ID…?”
After Anna joined the fan cafe, she pointed at the rank displayed on the screen.
“Arang, what’s this?”
“That’s the fan name…”
“Fan name? Why is it like this…?”
“It means the fans are important…”
“Really?”
“Yeah…”
I think a fan name should be easy to say, catchy, and have significant meaning.
In that sense, “Limbs” is a very fitting fan name.
While chatting with Anna and browsing the fan cafe, I noticed a lot of posts from foreign fans expressing concern, as well as posts curious about the latest game mechanic.
The foreign fans don’t know me well yet, so that’s understandable, and time will solve that.
What’s important are the posts about the latest mechanic.
Our fan cafe doesn’t have it, but I know there’s a lot of negative sentiment worldwide about what I’ve done.
When I first started parrying the Orc Chieftain and clearing field bosses, there were similar issues.
People accused me of using bugs, hacks, or illegal modifications, but Leore resolved it.
Those incidents were only known in Korea, but since the world saw me through Reina’s broadcast, it’s easy to misunderstand.
On Reddit, half the posts are about worrying and defending me, while the other half are calling me a hacker or cheater.
“Arang, don’t worry. Sis will handle it.”
Anna, who was hugging me from behind, spoke in a voice filled with anger as she patted my head.
“It’s okay, sis… I can handle this…”
“Huh?”
“Trust me…”
“…Okay. But if it gets too hard, tell me. Promise? Okay?”
“Okay…”
On Reddit, things are heated, but when I checked the Leore gallery, it was surprisingly clean.
Of course, there’s no polite speech, and everyone uses informal language with swearing, but the topics were all harmless.
Usually, these galleries are filled with curses and insults, but this time, it’s clean.
‘This is almost at the level of the Ryuiver Cafe. Are the gallery users really this nice?’
It’s completely different from the last time with the hacking and illegal modification accusations.
‘Well, good is good.’
The hottest topic on Reddit right now is whether I can see anything when I’m under a debuff.
Everyone seems to want to see my first-person perspective.
Seeing this, I thought, why not just stream once? I find regular streaming schedules and managing streams annoying, but doing a guerrilla stream once in a while is fine.
Of course, since I don’t know much about streaming, I’ll have to ask Uncle Kang Hangeul for help.

Kang Hangeul was having a tough time in the current hunt.
“Wow… This is really hard. Even with just 4 stacks of debuff, it’s this difficult. How does Arang do it?”
-How much of a physical difference is there between Arang and the leader?
-What’s the age difference between Arang and the leader?
“Hey, no age mentions! And there’s no one here younger than Arang!”
-LOL, true
-Arang’s the youngest anyway
-But Arang doesn’t seem like she’s 15
-For real, LOL
-Arang’s more like 10, lol
“And as you all know, Arang’s having a hard time right now. Sigh…”
-Yeah
-Reddit’s going crazy
-Foreigners are the worst
-Is Arang going to be okay?
-It’s probably harder for her since she’s been through it before
After finishing the hunt trial, Kang Hangeul was resting with his guild and chatting with viewers before ending the stream.
Normally, mentioning other streamers or users is prohibited in Kang Hangeul’s stream, but Arang is an exception.
First of all, if you ban mentions of Arang in Leore, half the Leore discussions would disappear—that’s how influential Arang is in Leore.
-??????
-Huh?
-Arang?
-Why is Arang here?
-??????????
Seeing the viewers spamming question marks, Kang Hangeul felt something was off and turned his head when he saw the word “Arang.”
There she was, and her appearance was enough to make anyone’s heart drop.
Half-closed eyes, slumped shoulders, and eyes that looked like they were in hell—it was the same Arang from the event tournament.
But this was Leore.
“Arang!”
Kang Hangeul rushed over to her.
“Hey, Uncle…?”
“What’s wrong!? Where’s Sunchoo and Pinku!?”
“They all logged out…”
“Then what about Anna!?”
“Sis…? She’s probably sleeping…?”
“What!? I’ll call her right now—!”
“No… Why are you so worked up…?”
“You don’t look okay!”
“I’m fine…”
“You don’t look fine!”
“I’m fine, really—”
“Why isn’t Anna answering her phone—!”
To Kang Hangeul, Arang’s appearance now overlapped with how she looked during the event tournament, making it hard for him to think straight.
He quickly called Arang’s older sister, Anna, while Arang sighed and hugged him to calm him down.
“!?”
Normally, viewers would’ve thought it was just Arang messing around, but given the recent controversies, they didn’t think it was just a simple hug.
