Language Cheat Reincarnation – Young Girl VTuber Saves the World

Chapter 68.
[Language Battle]

“She’s a real monster.”

“……… Ha, ha! Do you mean that woman Iroha is as multilingual as you are? Well, I didn’t think that even though there are many multilinguals in this school, someone can match you!”

“No, I told you, didn’t I? She’s a monster.
I’m nothing compared to her.”

“But, but, but!”

“I have no idea how many languages she speaks in total.
The way she looks at me… It was like looking at a piece of trash! From start to finish, she just looked annoyed.
She was telling me she didn’t care about me, not even a footstep away from me.”

“Oh my… I can’t believe she’s more of a genius than you.”

“She was in a different dimension.
It wasn’t even a match.
Or the vectors are different.
It’s just incomprehensible.
You should try talking to her.
She’s a language genius.
I’m sure you’d notice the discrepancy.”

“A feeling of discrepancy?”

“Yeah.
She learns foreign languages in a different way than we do.”

“What does that mean?”

“It’s just a guess, but she may be ‘monolingual’.
Or maybe she’s not even monolingual.
Either way, she doesn’t have a foreign language brain… I’m sure there are others out there who are aware of this.”

“No, no, no, no! Give me some more concrete evidence!”

“Yes, I do.
For example, we subconsciously find rules in language.”

“Bylaws, do you mean, for example, grammar or vocabulary?”

“Yes, of course, but it’s more like being able to pronounce a language or word that is new to you to a certain extent.
For example … well, try to read these letters.”

“Uhm [Songeregurappa]”

“Do you know this word?”

“No, I don’t.
What does it mean?”

“I don’t know.
I just made it up.”

“Hey!”

“But you pronounced it exactly as I thought it should be pronounced.”

“Oh, wow, now that you mention it.
I’ve never seen the word before, but I pronounced it subconsciously.”

“This is a natural ability for native speakers of a language.
If you’re multilingual, it’s an ability that comes into play even when you’re new to a language.
That’s what I thought.
But she doesn’t have it.”

“Then how does she learn other languages? Because that’s the first step in learning a new language.”

“Iroha maybe learns all the languages from scratch.
Or maybe she learns languages according to a completely different set of rules, and not in a top-down way as we do.
So, in other words, it’s a different dimension.”

“What’s that?”

“What the heck is that? If I hadn’t already been learning a foreign language, I would have worshipped Iroha as “Iroha-sama” and begged her to teach me English.”

“Why not now?”

“So, can you ‘forget how to remember’?”

“That’s impossible.”

“I don’t think so.”

“I see.
The world is a big place.
I heard that this school is the best in Japan for languages, so I enrolled, and I thought I meet a real genius like you, but to think that there is a genius even better than you.”

“That’s for sure.
I was the one who got my nose broken.
By the way, I’ve reached my limit.”

“Hmm?”

“AAAaahhhh Mamaaaaaa, I lost! Aah! Aaah! Bieeeeee! Come get me soon! Gee yaaaaah! Breastfeed me!”

“Eeehh!”

Thus, one student died socially and fell from the throne of the Four Heavenly Kings.
And that led to my current situation – my appointment as the new Four Heavenly Kings.

I was so screwed up.

I’m screwed, aren’t I?

What did I do? What the heck!

But I can’t help it, can I?

Because I didn’t even realize that I was getting into a fight until I investigated the rumors like this.
Before I knew it, my cheat-like translation ability had done its job.

But, well…

It was the language genius who was talking to me at that time.

You know, I don’t look at trash like that!

I did think, “This guy keeps jumping from one thing to the next,” and “Can’t you let me go home early so I can watch the video stream?”

However, I was thinking.

That’s all there is to it!

“That’s why my classmates are bothering me right now!”

“You’re not very good at teaching English, Iroha-chan! If you can teach English well, Mai should be fluent in English first.”

“That’s right! The guys at school need to realize that.”

What are they doing here every recess?

Am I some beckoning cat that makes you happy if you pet it?

They all beg me to teach them, but as a matter of course, I have no idea what they’re talking about, and then they leave, somehow satisfied, saying, “It’s hard to explain something so obvious.”

Fortunately, I hadn’t yet been exposed as a VTubers…

On the contrary, I wonder how they haven’t found out any longer.

Also, I had never heard that our junior high school is the best in Japan in languages.

Yes, I had thought that there were a lot of multilinguals there!

“Oh, no, it’s too much trouble!”

“Oh~, okay.
There is something I would like to recommend to you, Iroha-chan, who is under such stress.”

“Hm? What is it?

“Iroha-chan, are you interested in animal therapy?”
