Disaster-Level Player Is Too Good at Broadcasting-Chapter 64: «A New Age Of Streamers! [2] »

[Bonus Chapter for 40 Golden Tickets ~ refer to the Author’s Reward system.]

The hall was loud even before the event started.

People were talking everywhere.

Cameras moved above the crowd like small metal birds. Screens the size of buildings hung from the ceiling. Bright lights filled the stage at the front.

Park Woonhee dragged Kang Min through the entrance like she had been waiting for this day for months.

"Come on! We’re going to lose our seats!"

Kang Min sighed behind his mask.

He wore a simple black cap and a light jacket. A white surgical mask covered his nose and mouth. Only his eyes could be seen.

No one recognized him.

That was the point.

They walked through rows and rows of seats before Woonhee finally stopped.

"These are ours!"

She pushed him into a seat and sat down beside him.

Kang Min looked around quietly.

Thousands of people were inside the hall.

Players.

Streamers.

Media reporters.

Agency workers.

Fans.

Even a few well-known climbers.

The stage at the front was massive. A huge screen stood behind it, currently showing the logo of White Stars.

Below the logo were simple words.

"WHITE ENT. — THE NEW ERA OF TOWER STREAMING."

Kang Min leaned back in his chair.

Woonhee was vibrating with excitement.

"Can you believe this?!"

She pointed toward the stage.

"This is history!"

Kang Min didn’t answer immediately.

Instead he spoke quietly.

"I still think it’s wild."

"What is?"

"That they’re doing this now."

Woonhee blinked.

"Now?"

"Yeah."

He looked toward the screen.

"Just a few days before the expedition."

The expedition.

Every climber in Korea knew about it.

A large group of elite players was preparing to climb deeper into the tower than anyone had ever gone before.

And yet here White Stars was.

Hosting a giant convention.

"No shame at all," Kang Min muttered.

Woonhee laughed.

"That’s corporations for you."

She leaned closer.

"But honestly... it’s genius."

Kang Min didn’t disagree.

But his thoughts drifted somewhere else.

To the events that happened only weeks ago.

The Calamity.

The Fourth Disaster.

The monster that almost destroyed everything.

He closed his eyes for a moment.

After it was over, he didn’t get to rest.

White Stars officials questioned him for hours.

Maybe days.

He lost track.

A B-Rank porter surviving something like that was already strange.

But what he did during the disaster made it worse.

They had looked at him like he was a puzzle.

"How did you do it?"

"What skill did you use?"

"Who helped you?"

"Were you working with another climber?"

"Did a guild intervene?"

Kang Min told them the truth.

Well...

Most of it.

He explained that he received a temporary skill.

A one-time ability.

A blessing from a star.

Something that allowed him to borrow help from beyond the tower.

It sounded ridiculous.

But in a world with the tower, stars, and awakened abilities...

It wasn’t impossible.

After hours of questioning, they finally let him go.

Still...

White Stars decided to hide him for a while.

Just in case.

Too many people were looking for answers after the disaster.

If his name spread, reporters would chase him everywhere.

So the company moved him to a quiet apartment owned by one of their chaebol families.

A huge place.

Far too big for one person.

Guards watched the building.

The location stayed secret.

Kang Min basically disappeared from the public eye.

Which he didn’t mind.

He preferred silence.

Of course...

The guild that organized the disaster response rewarded him.

A lot.

An insane amount of money.

Enough to live comfortably for the rest of his life if he wanted.

Saving humanity wasn’t a small thing.

Even if no one fully understood what really happened.

Kang Min slowly opened his eyes again.

Woonhee was still talking.

"...and then they said there would be exclusive announcements and demonstrations!"

Kang Min nodded lightly.

"Yeah."

But his thoughts moved to something else.

Even after clearing up to the tenth floor...

Even after gaining more narrative energy...

He still needed something.

A sword.

A very specific sword.

Without it, the expedition would become much harder later.

And time was running out.

He glanced toward the stage again.

"This better not take all day," he muttered quietly.

Woonhee turned toward him.

"What?"

"Nothing."

The lights suddenly dimmed.

The entire hall slowly became quiet.

A calm voice echoed through the speakers.

"Ladies and gentlemen... thank you for coming."

The screen behind the stage lit up.

The logo of White Stars appeared again.

Then the camera zoomed into the stage as a man walked out.

He wore a sharp black suit.

His hair was perfectly styled.

Many people in the audience instantly recognized him.

Park Jinhyuk.

One of the executive directors of White Stars.

Applause filled the hall.

Park Jinhyuk bowed slightly.

"Welcome to the official launch of White Entertainment."

The crowd clapped louder.

Woonhee clapped so hard her hands almost hurt.

Kang Min watched quietly.

Park Jinhyuk continued.

"For years, the tower has defined humanity’s future."

Images appeared on the giant screen behind him.

Old footage.

Climbers fighting monsters.

Boss battles.

Emergency evacuations.

City destruction.

Tower gates opening.

"Since the tower appeared... humanity has changed."

The video shifted.

Climbers climbing floors.

Stream chat windows scrolling.

People watching battles from their phones.

"For nearly a decade, climbers have streamed their journeys."

The footage showed shaky recordings.

Poor camera angles.

Bad audio.

People screaming while running from monsters.

Laughter spread through the audience.

Park Jinhyuk smiled.

"In the early days... streaming was chaotic."

The screen displayed a comparison.

Left side.

Old streams.

Shaky.

Blurry.

Random commentary.

Right side.

Modern high-quality footage.

Stable drones.

Clear sound.

Professional overlays.

"But even then... people watched."

The next clip showed millions of viewers.

Crowds gathered around giant public screens.

Children watching climbers fight bosses.

Fans cheering.

"Something became very clear."

Park Jinhyuk paused.

"People love watching the tower."

The crowd nodded.

Of course they did.

Not everyone could climb.

But everyone could watch.

Park Jinhyuk raised a hand.

"Before today... tower streaming was secondary."

A slide appeared on the screen.

"OLD ERA OF STREAMING"

Points appeared one by one.

• Personal channels

• Donations and ads

• Guild publicity streams

• Unstable quality

• Only top fighters get views

"Most climbers streamed for fame... or small income."

Clips showed guild players casually streaming raids.

"They were warriors first."

"Entertainers second."

The screen changed again.

Now it showed massive production sets.

Editing rooms.

Camera crews.

Broadcast stations.

"But today..."

Park Jinhyuk smiled.

"White Stars introduces something new."

The words appeared across the screen.

"THE NEW ERA OF TOWER STREAMING"

The audience erupted in applause.

Woonhee grabbed Kang Min’s arm.

"This is it!"

Park Jinhyuk continued.

"White Entertainment."

"Or simply..."

"White Ent."

The logo appeared.

Clean.

Simple.

Modern.

"This is a dedicated platform for tower content creators."

Another slide appeared.

"Two Awakened Career Paths."

Left side.

Professional Climbers.

Right side.

Tower Streamers.

Park Jinhyuk pointed to the left.

"Professional climbers."

Clips showed guild raids and elite teams fighting monsters.

"They clear floors."

"They protect humanity."

"They work with governments and guilds."

Income points appeared.

• Guild salaries

• Raid rewards

• Government contracts

"They focus on combat."

The slide shifted to the right.

"Tower Streamers."

New footage appeared.

Climbers talking to cameras.

Exploring floors.

Laughing.

Reacting to strange rooms.

"Streamers create entertainment inside the tower."

Income points appeared.

• Sponsorships

• Streaming contracts

• Viewership revenue

• Brand deals

• Paid events

The audience murmured loudly.

Park Jinhyuk nodded.

"This creates opportunities for many awakened individuals who may not wish to pursue dangerous raid careers."

Kang Min crossed his arms.

He understood the idea.

Not every awakened person was a combat monster.

Some people had average skills.

Or strange abilities.

Those people used to have no future inside the tower.

Now they could entertain instead.

The screen changed again.

"INNOVATION ONE: BROADCAST LICENSING."

Park Jinhyuk spoke clearly.

"White Ent introduces official streaming licenses."

Another list appeared.

Without license:

• Limited reach

• No corporate sponsors

• No promotion

"With license:"

• Front page promotion

• Production teams

• Camera support

• Marketing

"This turns streaming into a real career ladder."

The audience clapped again.

The screen darkened briefly.

Then a new video started.

A sleek metal drone floated across a tower floor.

It smoothly followed a climber fighting monsters.

Multiple camera angles appeared instantly.

A calm voice narrated the fight.

Park Jinhyuk spoke.

"Of course... technology makes this possible."

The screen displayed a logo.

"T1."

"T1 is the world leader in tower broadcasting hardware."

The next words appeared.

"T1 DRONES."

The video zoomed in on the drone.

"These drones were designed specifically for tower environments."

Features appeared beside it.

• Mana-resistant flight systems

• Automatic monster threat detection

• Stabilized broadcast cameras

• Multi-angle combat tracking

• Emergency retreat protocols

"They can survive in floors where normal electronics fail."

The drone dodged a monster attack in the video.

The audience reacted with impressed murmurs.

"But T1 provides equipment."

"They do not control the industry."

Park Jinhyuk pointed toward the White Stars logo again.

"White Stars organizes it."

"White Ent builds the ecosystem."

The next slide appeared.

"STREAMER CLASSES."

Woonhee leaned forward.

"This is interesting..."

Park Jinhyuk continued.

"Not all streamers are the same."

Four categories appeared.

Raid Streamers.

Clips showed intense boss battles.

"Combat focused streams."

Exploration Streamers.

Clips showed hidden rooms and strange puzzles.

"Discovery content."

Challenge Streamers.

Clips showed climbers doing ridiculous things.

Fighting with strange weapons.

Clearing floors alone.

"Creative or risky builds."

Finally—

Personality Streamers.

Clips showed climbers talking, reacting, joking.

Even failing in funny ways.

The crowd laughed.

"This allows many kinds of players to succeed."

"Even those who are not elite fighters."

Kang Min nodded slowly.

It made sense.

In the old system, weak climbers had almost no place.

Now...

They could become entertainers.

The next slide appeared.

"SPONSORSHIP ECONOMY."

Logos of companies filled the screen.

Weapon manufacturers.

Gear brands.

Energy drink companies.

Insurance firms.

Climbing equipment brands.

"Tower streams attract billions of viewers worldwide."

Park Jinhyuk smiled.

"Companies want that audience."

Clips showed streamers advertising equipment during climbs.

Some audience members laughed.

"Some streamers already earn more than elite guild members."

That line caused a loud reaction.

Woonhee gasped.

"Seriously?!"

Kang Min shrugged.

"Probably."

Finally the screen showed the last system.

"VIEWER INTERACTION."

A fake stream interface appeared.

Chat messages scrolled rapidly.

Donation notifications popped up.

Park Jinhyuk explained.

"Viewers can now interact with streamers in real time."

Points appeared.

• Vote on challenges

• Donate to unlock events

• Request dungeon routes

• Trigger penalties or buffs

An example appeared on screen.

"$10,000 DONATION — FIGHT BOSS WITHOUT HEALING."

The crowd burst into laughter.

Another appeared.

"VIEWER VOTE — TAKE LEFT PATH OR RIGHT PATH."

"This makes tower streams interactive entertainment."

Park Jinhyuk stepped forward.

"White Ent is not replacing climbers."

"Guilds remain essential."

"Raids remain essential."

"But this..."

He gestured to the massive screen.

"...creates an entirely new industry."

The screen displayed a final message.

"WHITE ENT — THE FUTURE OF TOWER BROADCASTING."

Applause thundered across the hall.

People stood.

Cameras flashed.

Woonhee clapped wildly.

"This is insane!"

Kang Min simply watched the stage quietly.

White Stars had done something clever.

They didn’t change the tower.

They didn’t change climbers.

They changed how the world watched it.

And somehow...

That made them even bigger.

Probably the biggest player-related company in the world now.

Kang Min leaned back in his seat.

"This industry is about to get very loud," he murmured.

Woonhee grinned.

"Good."

Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the stage.

"Because I want to be part of it."
