The Young Ryunosuke Akutagawa's Interdimensional Livestream

Akutagawa, the Port Mafia's "rabid dog that doesn't bark."

...At the age of seven, he got a magical livestream.

The livestream was noisy.

[Aaaah, little Akutagawa! He's so tiny!! Children are the world's treasures!]

But the livestream was useful.

[Run! Don't touch that bread! It's bait!]

Sometimes, it was pretty clueless.

[Wow, so this is what a slum looks like. Is this what they mean by the real-world kill line?!]

[What a scary place. What scary people.]

Sometimes, it was clever.

[First do this... then that... How's that? It can't purify the sewage completely, but at least it's not as dirty!]

[It's just elementary school arithmetic. I'm a preschool teacher, let me teach you!]

Sometimes, it loved sticking its nose into other people's business.

[That kid looks pretty pitiful. Seems about the same age as you, Dragon.]

[Want to make him our companion?]

Sometimes, it knew better than to get involved.

[Don't go over there! Those are probably Port Mafia people.]

[Could be the Takase Association, or GSS, too.]

It even knew a little about supernatural abilities.

[How about starting with controlling the hem of your clothes? You could use Rashomon to pick up chocolate bars, or turn book pages!]

The comments became a third pair of eyes, helping him and Gin survive in the slums.

Until they soared to the top.

1. This is a livestream-raised-kid story, starting from childhood. The title will change as Akutagawa gets older, so take note (?).

2. But the cover won't change.

3. There are a few references to real life, and a historical author who shares a name with a character will appear.

4. I update quickly, so don't let my story pile up unread! Please add it to your favorites if you enjoy it!
