BXBX NOVEL Chapter 13 - 13 – Have You Heard of Breeze? [2]
Chapter 13: – Have You Heard of Breeze? [2]
No one cares about new streamers. They had no name, and their skill was questionable.
Of course, some viewers in the Knight's Journey official Punch account might get interested in those newbies, but their presence would probably be ignored throughout the event as an extra.
Everyone would expect senior streamers with acknowledged skills to dominate the game even without the newbie's help.
Imagine when the viewers were expecting a new streamer who only started and created his account a week before the event ran on the wall and made out of the world movement.
The streaming event would probably explode, and many people would leave comments talking about Knight's Journey.
"Who is this guy?"
Taka began to work and operated the hologram screen, trying to find the new streamers and his information.
What he found out further baffled him. Today was the streamer's first day. And from his reaction, Taka knew Breeze also hadn't played a game before.
In fact, the linked Punch and his game account only showed 2 hours of gameplay of Knight's Journey, and there was no list of other games. This guy was a real deal.
Taka saw hope for the event to succeed with a bang.
"I need to contact him as soon as possible. That way, he can finish at least one run and get used to the game before the event. There is no way he will refuse an offer from Biozone Entertainment."

In the morning, Max opened the curtain in his room using his smartwatch before sitting on his cheap bed.
He had finished all his routine, including a newly added morning exercise. He did this to make his skinny and weak body fit so he could play VR longer.
To start the day, he planned to check the community forum or do some research before he grabbed breakfast. However, an email stopped him from doing all that and made him wonder.
"Biozone Entertainment... Isn't that the company that distributes the Knight's Journey?" He muttered, having a bad feeling about the email.
For one, he didn't get his game from the right source and actually from a system. He was worried that the game distributor would catch on and ban his account.
'I hope that's not the case.'
It was just a day since he started his streaming career.
Max couldn't afford to get banned for an unknown reason because that would ruin the reputation he built yesterday and literally cut off his career before it even blew up.
With a trembling finger from thinking of the worst possible outcome, he opened the email and read it carefully.
The first sentence was actually polite, saying, 'Dear, Mr. Breeze.'
This alleviated Max's worry slightly. There was no need for the company to be polite to an offender. At most, they would type the email headline 'Banned Information' or just a plain 'Warning.'
Max read the email carefully, trying not to miss even a single word. It wasn't a welcome message. When he opened this email, he realized it was directed personally at his Punch account, not his game account.
It meant Biozone Entertainment sent an email to Breeze, the 'streamer' and not his game account.
As he read down the sentence, his jaw dropped in surprise as his hands trembled. He had a hard time scrolling down the floating screen.
When he reached the end, he gulped and muttered, "Is this real?"
The content of the email was about an invitation to a program that Biozone Entertainment, more specifically Knight's Journey, planned to hold. A confidentiality instruction inside the email warned him not to spread it before they announced it.
It was a sudden program streamed on Knight's Journey's official channel, and the content was about speedrunning.
Actually, Max was suspicious about the invitation, but he didn't find anything at fault with the email. They also asked him to contact them back as quickly as possible with his answer because they wanted to discuss the details in person to avoid information leaks.
Max suspicion wasn't without any base. He was skeptical that a new streamer like him, who had just streamed for a day, would get a big company's attention.
So he surfed the internet and found Knight's Journey's official website. He became pretty sure the email was legit because the official email address matched the one that sent him the invitation.
"Then, is this a dream? Nah, it can't be. Am I just that lucky?"
For some reason, it was too good to be true, so he reread it. The date of the program was next week, just two days after his supposed fifth or maybe fourth stream.
It wasn't just his imagination. There was even a link that he could click to give his reply.
Even if he didn't want to connect both, he needed to admit that the system seemed to prepare everything for him.
"Does the system know this so it limits the deadline using the number of streams instead of days?
Getting 50,000 diamonds wasn't as easy as it sounded. He was lucky yesterday because there was someone who got interested in the Knight's Journey mission and gave him a stream mission worth 5,000 diamonds.
But he couldn't rely on them. He might not be able to finish the system's quest if he just got 200 or 500 diamonds worth of donations each time he streamed.
"Speedrun between three skilled and newbie streamers teams, huh?"
Max somehow understood the real goal of this program. It was to make Knight's Journey look exciting.
Pro streamers, who had already proven their skill, would need to carry the three newbies and go as fast as they could.
He could already guess that both streamers needed to be alive to make the speedrun count as finished.
It would create a challenge for the skilled streamer and some funny moments for the newbie.
"But why me? Did they see the forum posts?"
What he showed in his stream was far from newbie, although he could be counted as one seeing the gaming hours that he purposely didn't hide in his 'About Me' menu.
But after thinking it through, he somehow understood why the management invited him.
"I see. I became a surprise element, huh?" Max nodded, his lips curled up as he pressed the link attached to the email. "Then, let's accept it. This is a big chance I can't miss."
Without a doubt, this could propel his progress as a streamer. Only a fool would not accept this invitation.
The reply from the company came fast, just a few seconds after Max sent his reply.
It came with an invitation, complete with the Sky Rail ticket, for him to visit Biozone Entertainment's headquarters in New Eden City as soon as possible to discuss further details.
