“Is it really you, No Name? I mean, there are degrees to coincidences… It doesn’t make sense to meet that person here like this.”
Yui Arimura sprang up, chasing after Name while shouting.
[▶Avatar Voice – OFF]
Then, Name manipulated the hologram and replied in a sweet voice.
“Why doesn’t it make sense?”
In an instant, a lively child’s voice flowed from the girl’s lips.
The moment Name’s real voice was revealed, suspicion transformed into certainty for everyone.
“Wow! It’s real! Everyone, it’s really her! Wow! I’ve never met a celebrity before!”

– What’s this? A hilarious prank?
The viewer who had given the mission sent in the donation with a confused heart.
The gameplay from the newbie had been impressive enough, but many viewers couldn’t hide their excitement at the fact that a shining star was hidden behind it.
The moment the rumored newbie recognized No Name, the chatroom erupted into chaos.
– Wowwwww
– Turns out her speech and actions are all unmistakably No Name, lol
– ?????
– A precious person like this on such a shabby stream
– Legend, legend
– Whoa! She’s world-class!
– 850,000 subscribers vs. 10.38 million subscribers ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ
– When did No Name reach ten million subscribers? She hasn’t been active but her growth is fierce.
– Arimura, this is a chance sent by the gods! Absolutely seize it.
[Yui Arimura]
[Resonance (Armory) – ※Epic※ Met the real No Name during the Armory campaign!]
[Broadcast Duration – 1:18:27]
[Viewer Count – 13,492]
Arimura hurriedly changed the title.
Even though it was still early morning, people drawn by the delicious bait started flocking to the broadcasting studio.
The stream recorded a historic first with five-digit viewer counts and rekindled the fading embers in the community.
The dawn was still long.
* * *
As soon as the first campaign ended, we boarded a transport aircraft heading towards Baghdad, the capital of Iraq.
It seemed the main character of this game was American.
A scenario unfolded where the protagonist briefly spoke to family over the phone at the airport.
The protagonist conveyed a hopeful message that the war would soon end.
However, the atmosphere inside the transport aircraft was filled with silence.
Some were closing their eyes, while others quietly checked their equipment.
Wiiing-
The soldiers surrendered their bodies to the sound and vibration of the transport aircraft’s engines in the stillness.
A mission that promised fortune if successful, or destruction if failed.
“Can I change my avatar here?”
“Yeah, it doesn’t really matter. Are you uncomfortable?”
Nodding-
Using the remaining time, I decided to switch from my uncomfortable avatar.
[▶Custom 2 – Release]
[▶Custom 1 – Equip]
[▶The modeling resources used for the avatar are not compatible with the existing platform. Please activate matching resources from ‘Resonance’, or replace the non-existent resources with default or other resources. Do you want to proceed?]
[▶Accept]
[▶Asha(NoName) #2482. Synchronization complete.]
I threw off the basic avatar and summoned the body I had semi-automatically generated in Warlord.
The cumbersome elf ears disappeared, reverting to normal human ears.
While Warlord leaned slightly towards animation style, Resonance-Armory aimed for realism in a war game.
Consequently, the avatar’s realistic attributes rose from 0.6 to 0.8, resulting in a form somewhat similar to reality.
I bit down on a hair tie I had in my pocket.
Carefully gathering the softly flowing golden hair, I began to fashion a ponytail with both hands.
Twisting the hair tie twice at a high position and leaving half, I tied the remaining half once more.
In a situation where I would be holding a firearm and limited in movement, a ponytail would be more suitable than twin tails.
Just then, while adjusting the string to not be too tight, I caught sight of Arimura’s gaze pinned to the floor.
He was pressing his temples while muttering some strange chant.
“Don’t be mistaken. She’s nine years old. Nine years old. Nine years old, nine, nine, nine, Jesus!”
“What are you doing?”
“Oh, it’s nothing! Let’s go, Name! I’ll make sure you get through the campaign safely!”
“But I haven’t even put on my parachute and you want me to jump from here?”
“No, no!”
– Oh my!
– Don’t be fooled, everyone. There’s a nine-year-old inside her!
– Click!
– Heh-
– Name, you’re tying your hair so beautifully, lol
– How come you’re better at tying than me, a college student, lol
– That avatar is really OP.
– How did that come out in one gacha draw?
– No Name, please kill me…!
– Yes~ I’ll kill you~
– Who is the one reporting, terror?
“Name, if you get scared at any point, you can skip.”
“Scared? I’m not scared of falling without a parachute.”
“Really? You should be scared of that.”
The soldiers cast magic using mana stones stored in the US for oxygen supply and for bulletproof spells.
“Try not to use magic unless necessary. These mana stones are very important for protecting your body and head. Even a single cast of third-circle magic could break the mana stone. Remember that.”
[Advanced settings completed. Homeland Defense Forces ready for jump. Open the door. Assault Brigade jump in 10 seconds.]
The back door of the transport aircraft opened, and a cold wind pierced through.
[Jump begins! Jump begins!]
We dashed forward as if we were pushed.
The sunlight pouring down in front amplified the sensation of weightlessness.
From the high vantage point, a wide blue sky and fluffy white clouds spread out beneath us.
Bwooooom-
“…?”
The invincible broadcast drone that I had seen earlier flew back into sight.
It was likely a drone providing a third-person perspective for viewers during the jump.
The drone deliberately avoided being visible to us and kept moving out of our sight.
‘Did you think I would miss you?’
As the drone performed a 180-degree turn and soared upward, I turned my head to look up at it.
– ???
– Totally unexpected eye contact, lol
– What are you doing?
– Focus on the mission, No Name!
– Ah, I’m dizzy, stop looking over here, lol
The drone performed erratic UFO-like flight patterns up, down, left, and right.
I created a small aura using the mana stone, spinning in mid-air like a cat.
“Parachute! Name, you need to deploy the parachute before it’s too late!”
Upon hearing that, I deployed the parachute.
The blue sky receded behind me as the ground came closer.
Surprisingly, the falling time was less than a minute.
The moment my feet touched the ground, the sensation of weightlessness transformed into stability.
Thud-
I shouldered the M16A5 and tried to stabilize my position.
It felt much more stable than when I had held it in a child’s form.
[‘SleepyG11’ donated 1,000 won!]
– No Name, I think you could use a correction on your stance. It seems like your shoulder is only resting on the end of the stock, making recoil control hard. Your firearm is also tilted too much to the side.
“Is there a problem?”
Arimura glanced at my stance at the viewer’s comments.
“Um, I don’t see any problem, to be honest.”
“Then let’s continue like this.”
The chatroom, which had been filled with laughter just moments ago, transformed into chaos.
It seemed there was a heated debate over my shooting stance.
“Ugh.”
Quickly raising the rifle I had aimed at the ground, I pulled the trigger toward a forward barricade.
Bang-!
Not checking if the enemy had fallen, I readied my aim at another enemy and fired.
This time, it was definitely a burst fire.
Tatatatang-!
[Enemy eliminated +200]
[Headshot bonus +100]
[Preemptive strike +100]
In an instant, two kill notifications shot up, grabbing the attention of viewers who had been distracted.
I whispered in a low voice.
“Auto-correction is prohibited beyond 10 percent.”
– Wow, insane aim, so fast!
– Another headshot?
– You really thought this through, No Name-sensei!
– LOL, as long as you align the reticle, you’re good!
– For real, lol!
– No Name! No Name! No Name!
– Back in the day, this would have sounded like hacks, lol!
– Those advising me really deserve a smack!
– I think I’m falling for No Name. What should I do?
– I can’t resist the ultra-fast shooting of a blonde beauty, lol!
– Hurry up and grow up, No Name!
– Who’s making such outrageous comments?
– This is the taste of the main course. Even the first time playing the game, you’re doing exceptionally well.
– Name, please turn on the broadcast! I feel like I’m going to die!!!
The battle commenced, and once again, the hellish combat began.
Hitting moles has eight holes.
However, in this vast open area where bombs were falling, there were hundreds of spots where enemies could pop up.
While engaging in combat, I kept the newly heard gunfire in my ears, shooting one enemy and quickly aiming for the next.
Tatadadadadadada-!
The distance to the enemies was not far.
That meant Baghdad was just ahead.
Once behind meaningful cover, I focused on suppressive fire to conserve 5.56mm ammunition.
During that time, Arimura came to me for advice.
“No Name!”
“Yes?”
“If we clear this without using grenades, there’s an additional reward! Should we try it?”
Well, it seemed like a good thing to ask about, right?
Without hesitation, I gave a thumbs up.
[▶Move to the Central Bank of Baghdad]
As I followed Arimura’s shadow, we unwittingly entered urban combat.
Suddenly, a rock flew above our heads.
“Flashbang…! Name, turn around!”
It was too late to turn my head.
Bang-!
The flashbang that erupted in the darkness emitted an intense light.
All space disappeared, and there was even a momentary feeling as if time had stopped.
But just before the flashbang detonated,
I caught sight of a shadow growing larger in the alley.
I immediately positioned my stance and fired repeatedly in that direction.
Tatadadadadada-
The blinding light gradually faded away, and the sparkles suspended in the air slowly fell to the ground.
On the upper right interface, a notification popped up indicating I had recorded 8 more kills.
[Enemy eliminated +800]
[Headshot bonus +200]
[Preemptive strike +100]
[Major point suppression +500]
[Killstreak +2000]
