The Villainess VTuber Rips People Apart-Chapter 150: Because the mansion is there
A number of outstanding talents entered the academy.
Of course, I entered as the top student, and a girl named Trwale barely managed to get in with the lowest grades.
I’ve only crossed paths with her twice in my life.
What could possibly happen between first place and last place?
Even though we were in the same grade, we didn’t really have any points of contact, and I only heard about her through rumors. It was when I became a second-year student that I heard Trwale had been chosen by a dragon.
From that day, Trwale became a Dragon Knight.
With the mission of exterminating all the gates in the world.

ㄴ This might cause controversy.
ㄴ At least it’s not Mero’s.
Damn... broadcasting this while overlapping...Iris Duke’s Mansion Dungeon.
It’s the dungeon responsible for the middle part of Dungeon Seeker.
Apparently, in the later part of the game, dungeons related to end-game content will open, but until then, this mansion dungeon is the most efficient for farming.
How exactly it's the most efficient... Shina didn’t know.

"Mashina! Run! Don’t fall behind!"
Vincent kept shouting from up ahead.
Shina exhaled heavily, pushing her legs to keep moving.
"Haah... haah..."
Her breath was ragged.
This content is taken from freёnovelkiss.com.
Humans over-breathe when they perform intense exercise, in order to supply oxygen to the body.
However, this wasn’t something that applied to VR. No matter how high-intensity the exercise, since it wasn’t a real body, her game avatar couldn’t experience oxygen deprivation.
Still, the reason Shina was breathing heavily wasn’t for that.
"Where, where, where, where, where?"
It was chasing her.
Without thinking, she glanced behind her, and there was a small child.
Was it a boy? A girl?
She didn’t know, and she didn’t need to know.
The creature had tentacles sprouting from its entire body, including its face, and the tips of the tentacles were sharp.
That nameless monster was swinging its tentacles, chasing them.
"Hi, hiiiiiik! Shi, shiroooo!"
When the monster extended its tentacles, Anna reacted first, not Shina.
Anna screamed terribly. True to her reputation as EYEAI's biggest scaredy-cat, she made a huge fuss.
It was definitely a hideous monster, but compared to the zombies from Aseer Sale, it was still better...
But Shina didn’t have the luxury of making such a comparison. Even though it was better than the zombies from Aseer Sale, she didn’t want to be caught and die by that monster either.
"Save me! My mom’s at home! My mom’s at home! Go away!"
In her terror, Anna completely lost her composure. Even though the tentacles were still far away, she activated a skill.
Anna’s class was "Survivor."
A class specialized in surviving encounters with monsters.
So it had many survival skills, divided mainly into two types: CC skills to restrain monsters and movement skills to escape them.
Even though all Dungeon Seeker skills had usage limits, Anna activated her movement speed increase skill without hesitation.
Then, she grabbed Choi Changyoung's arm, who was standing right beside her.
"Hey, Anna! What are you doing?!"
"I don’t want to dieeeee!!!"
"Ugh?!"
Anna grabbed Changyoung’s arm and threw it away.
It was one of Anna’s skills: Throw.
A skill meant to throw something at a monster to stun it...
Of course, the monster, hit by Changyoung, fell into a stunned state.
But once it recovered from the stun, it grabbed Changyoung.
"Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha."
"Hey, Shiroki Anna! You’re gonna pay for this later! Aaaahhh!!"
With Changyoung’s noble sacrifice, the group was finally able to escape from the monster.
"Haah... haah... I carried, right?"
"...You’re going to get scolded by Changyoung later."
Shina was dumbfounded, but thought it would be fine. Changyoung was fundamentally a good person, so he wouldn’t yell at Anna too harshly, and Changyoung’s fans were also relatively mild-mannered, so they wouldn’t berate Anna.
In the end, it didn’t matter how it happened. What mattered was that they survived.
"...I think the area is safe now. Let’s find the stairs leading to the roof."
Vincent said, and the remaining team members nodded.
Before long, the team found the stairs.
As they climbed up, the cold snowstorm hit their skin.
The mansion's roof.
From there, they could see the world blanketed in pure white.
It was at least 20 meters high.
At this point, calling it a mansion didn’t seem right. It might be more appropriate to call it a palace.
The Duke’s mansion was naturally the tallest building in the estate, so they could see far into the distant land.
Shina, without thinking, recalled her parents’ home.
Now, Shina lived in a one-room apartment, but her parents lived in a high-rise apartment.
In the winter when snow fell, sometimes the landscaping around the apartment would be covered in snow. Just seeing the familiar landscape covered in snow felt strangely fresh, and at the same time, beautiful.
But this place was different.
It was also covered in snow, but she didn’t find it beautiful at all.
If she had to compare it, it felt like a tomb quietly being buried.
The harsh cold of winter seemed to seep into her, and without realizing it, Shina shivered.
"I’ll plant the flag."
Vincent said that, and then he planted the Adventurer Guild's flag with its symbol on the mansion’s roof.
Eleonora did the same, planting the flag with the Tower’s symbol.
Soon, a quest completion marker appeared, and Vincent and Eleonora sighed in relief.
"Somehow, it worked out..."
Apparently, he had been tense for a while, as Vincent slumped down onto the ground.
"Did we clear it...?"
"We didn’t clear it, but we’ve reached the checkpoint. For now, we can take a breather."
"Alright. So, can I leave now...?"
"I just said it’s only a checkpoint... what do you mean ‘leave’?"
"But I’m scared! Please let me leave!"
Sigh...
Anna whined. Seeing that, Vincent sighed again.
But even after seeing Vincent’s sigh, Anna didn’t back down.
"We already traveled so far to get to the mansion! And fighting our way to the roof was tough! I’ve done everything I could! I deserve some praise! I’m Shiroki Anna, and I didn’t fall behind—this is unprecedented! I deserve a compliment!"
"...Calm down. I have no idea what you’re saying."
"At this point, can I just log off?"
"...Alright, fine."
Vincent shot a glance at her. It was the kind of look that said, "Someone, do something about this."
I’m in the same team as you... What am I supposed to do about this?
Plus, Vincent seemed a bit amusing in his awkwardness, so Shina casually plopped down on the ground. Eleonora, pretending not to notice, started making a campfire.
Currently, Cerberus and Behemoth were doing a Dungeon Seeker collaboration broadcast.
Soon enough, these two teams would collide in the Fantasy League, but despite the competition, they got along pretty well. It was probably because there were a lot of Seranade-affiliated VTubers in both teams. This collaboration broadcast was centered around Mashina, Eleonora, and Choi Changyoung.
Since it wasn’t a pro-league, there was no need to be too competitive. In fact, the Fantasy League encouraged collaboration between teams. So, it wasn’t rare for competing teams to collaborate.
Of course, if they were aiming for the Fantasy League championship, they’d probably need to practice Labyrinthos more, right? But practicing Labyrinthos wasn’t something they could do just because they wanted to. They could only practice when all six team members had matching schedules.
Above all:
"Meat! I’ll buy it all! Just tell me! I’ll cover everything!"
Anna shouted.
Who’s the older sister here? That kid...
But anyway, that was the reason.
Right now, Leviathan was leading the Dungeon Seeker gold ranking.
And Shina, who was not too happy about that, suggested to Changyoung that Cerberus and Behemoth team up to farm together.
That’s why they all gathered here, trying to break Leviathan’s gold hold—but already three out of the seven members were dead.
It’s been four hours since the broadcast started! In real time, that’s 20 hours! I, Shiroki Anna, have played a horror game for 20 hours! Can you believe that?! We should make a history textbook! Someone carve it into a stone tablet! "Shiroki Anna played a horror game for 20 hours!"
"...Alright. I get it. Just sit down for now. Since we reached the checkpoint, I wasn’t planning to keep going for long. Let’s just find the bodies of our teammates and finish it up."
"Really? I can trust you, right? You’re not lying, are you, Captain?"
"Who’s the captain?"
"If you’re lying... I’ll pee in the living room..."
"Isn’t that just your loss?"
Vincent asked in disbelief.
A few minutes later.
"...You climbed up the wall?"
"Yeah."
On the roof, Shina met Laura, who had just arrived.
