"Chapter 8" is the eighth chapter of the "Isekai Ojisan" Series.
Summary[]
On 19th February 2018, Takafumi informs his uncle that Sumika will be arriving there later. Takafumi then reads an e-mail addressed to his uncle, who couldn't read it because it was written in English. Hence, Takafumi uses a translation app to make it legible, and he then warns his uncle that he will be jobless soon. The cause of this is due to Youtube's newly imposed restrictions wanting users to have 1k subs and 4,000 hours of watch time from users. It's then revealed that the source of the low viewership and sub count is due to Uncle's reply comments.
Uncle then confessed to Takafumi that he hadn't seen such a response from people since his time in the Sealed City, Luvaldram. It was at that time a thousand monsters broke through a barrier surrounding the place. Dying to find out what happened, Takafumi is then shown the memory of when his Uncle was in the city. In the memory, the Elf clears up a misunderstanding that Uncle was an Orc and later uses a Chinese idiom that Uncle clarifies was a translation error from the magic he was using. The memory continues; as Elf talks about the barrier surrounding the town, Uncle casts a spell to destroy it... out whim. An army of giant Cyclops led by a Cloud Dragon then appears outside of the city, ready to invade the place. When Elf leaps into action, the barrier re-erects around the city, and she crashes into the reformed barrier.
It turns out that Uncle asked the spirits to repair the broken barrier. Despite how Uncle was suspected of being the one who broke the barrier, Elf clears the situation upon her return. In return for not telling everyone there that he broke the barrier, the Elf asks Uncle to take her to dinner that night. However, by that time, Uncle had fled on a wagon to avoid being extorted by her in the future. Recalling that he used to ask the spirits for help in the past, Uncle pleads on his YT page for people to subscribe there so he can save it. Initially, Takafumi is saddened by that as internet trolls prey on such weakness; however, the opposite occurs, and Uncle gets enough subs to save his channel. By that time, Sumika arrives and wonders what is going on there between Takafumi and his uncle.
