Each content creator had their own unique RP (roleplay) setting, and although the server would eventually become lively, things were still relatively quiet in these early ➤ NоvеIight ➤ (Read more on our source) days.
That was because the server used an invite-only system to prevent any possible issues.
With so many streamers gathered in one place, any controversy could quickly spiral out of control. So, for now, only so-called “verified” people were allowed in—public figures like celebrities, pro gamers, and major streamers.
[ Bored of mining? Then how about I tell you an old tale? Once upon a time, a crunchy choco chip and a soft choco chip lived together in the same house— ]
“Classic Diah. She’s great even on her own. Huh? You want me to say something to her? I’m an observer—I’m not allowed to talk. Mods can’t get buddy-buddy with streamers, you know? ...Though honestly, I kinda want to. Still can’t.”
From the perspective of the server staff, these “big fish” were the foundation for turning the
The plan was to have verified streamers earn money through server content, then use that money to buy invites and bring in other verified users—a positive loop of curated growth.
Right now, Dream was live-broadcasting the gameplay of Diah, one of the server’s starting members, for exactly that reason.
After all, of all the content creators who had expressed interest in the
“I mean, come on—who’s going to top an actual celebrity?”
A few years ago, Dream and Daramji (the so-called “squirrel emperor of kids’ content”) had been considered the two titans of streaming. Because of that, Dream had many ties to Daramji’s Illusion Realm Project.
Dream was fully on board with the idea of bringing in members of Daramji’s crew and Illusion Realm to the
In particular, he hoped that Ha-eun’s Diah and Da-yeon’s Hida would definitely join.
If these two highly talked-about figures actively played on the server, it would trigger a massive influx of new users, laying the groundwork for the server’s popularity.
The two of them had an entirely different level of fame—and if they were having fun, the “trickle-down” effect on the rest of the streamers would be huge.
Diah and Hida were crucial pillars in building the
[ One day, the crunchy choco chip said to the soft choco chip: Hey, later, let’s— ]
“Alright, now let’s go check in on Hida. While the husband is mining, what’s the wife up to, I wonder~.”
They were arguing earlier, lolWait what did the soft choco chip say tho?!Dream, when is the API integration dropping?dkgdkgdkgdkgdkgSaying ‘I’m a fan of Da-yeon’ = 100,000 won (banned user)Can’t we hear the rest of the story? I need to know...
The idea was to generate buzz through celebrities like Diah and Hida, and then fill the server with rising streamers who’d been invited by them.
So far, Dream’s operational vision for the
It already had tons of content—mining, farming, fishing, building, RPG systems, boss raids, and more.
The ultimate goals of the starting members weren’t yet clear, but the server had more than enough potential objectives to drive their gameplay.
[ Hmm... wheat, sugarcane, strawberries, cocoa beans, pumpkins, watermelons... Why is there so much to farm? Did they write this list out properly? ]
“Whoa, look at the scale. Are you building a kingdom or something?”
Minecraft, after all, was a sandbox game famed for its near-limitless freedom.
And just like its name, the
Naturally, content for viewers was also part of the plan.
Things like donation-linked in-game effects, and a final-day special concert featuring streamers.
-Ding.
[ LUX_Hida has received a 100,000 won donation and is flying high into the sky! ]
[ Uh... uh...? ]
-FWOOOOSH!
[ KYAAAAAAHHH!! ]
“Oh, it’s working perfectly. Huh? Why didn’t she die from fall damage? You get 20 seconds of immunity after being launched. It’d be a little harsh to die right after getting a donation~.”
Dream’s goal was for the
If Diah, Hida, and all the other future participants could enjoy themselves all the way to the final day, he’d be more than happy.
-Ding.
[ LUX_Hida has received another 100,000 won donation and is flying even higher! ]
[ Uh... again?! ]
-FWOOOOOOSH─!!
[ KYAAAAA!! How high is this going?! ]
“Oh wow, that’s super high. That’s a 5% chance event, and Hida just hit it. Lucky! Anyway, with that, the starter member tour is complete. I’ll sign off now. Drba~”
DrbaDrba (short for “Dream Bye”)dbBUT WHAT DID THE CRUNCHY CHOCO CHIP SAYYYYDrba~~~drba
After ending the stream, Dream dove straight into preparations for the server’s final special concert.
The lineup was ridiculously stacked—so much so it barely even felt like a “streamer concert.”
“I had Diah (Ha-eun) and Hida (Da-yeon) in mind from the start, but... I didn’t think Song Hyunmin would actually show up.”
Having Ha-eun’s Diah lead the Illusion Realm crew in a concert was well within expectations.
Strictly speaking, getting a famous singer like Ha-eun to perform for zero appearance fee was already unreal. But since she was here as Diah, it kind of made sense.
Sort of.
But the fact that Ha-eun had gone out of her way to bring another singer?
And not just any singer, but an original Hallyu star—
A man who casually goes on world tours, the definition of “A precious guest in a humble place.”
“At home, he’s just a regular gamer... or so she said. But seriously—is this allowed?”
The fact that Ha-eun, who wasn’t even part of the server’s management, had stepped up to boost the server’s success...
Sure, it was based on the mutual understanding that a thriving server = a thriving Diah channel, but even so—it meant a lot to Dream.
Still, the scale of it was blowing his mind.
Even now, after talks about Song Hyunmin’s surprise concert had begun, it still didn’t feel real.
It was because of this that Dream reached out again—
To Diah’s Ha-eun...
And to Daramji Ji Hye-min, the one who managed the entire Illusion Realm.
[ I’m telling you, it’s not a bluff. You already got his contact info—why are you still doubting it? ]
“Noona, come on. Be honest—don’t you think it’s kinda unreal? Song Hyunmin, performing in a Minecraft concert? Who could imagine that...?”
[ You know that new song from the other day? The one Ha-eun did the feature on. She brought him here as a thank-you for that. So just focus on getting things ready. ]
“...Ha-eun is amazing, seriously...”
[ Took you long enough to figure that out. ]
“And you’re amazing for debuting her as a VTuber. You must’ve saved a country in your past life.”
[ ...Honestly, I still can’t quite believe it either. ]
***
While Dream and Ji Hye-min were still in talks about the
Ha-eun’s Diah was deep in an underground tunnel, digging away while chatting with her “Noeulies” in the stream chat about her ultimate goal.
“Diah has a dream. A big dream—to become the owner of the greatest dessert shop in the entire Dream Server!”
Kono Diah wa yume ga aruReality: Still mining cobblestone nonstop...Diah, there’s coal next to youDiah have a dream~Wait, this isn’t a maid café, I’m leavingSo what happened with the soft choco chip?Didn’t you say you were gonna build a cotton candy skyscraper earlier?
“Ah, the entire cotton candy building is the dessert shop. I’ll sell cotton candy, cake, macarons—every dessert imaginable!”
WhatMy teeth hurt just hearing thisYou’re really throwing out potato farming? Potatoes are OPYou can make macarons in Minecraft??Minecraft mods have come a long wayNot saying she’ll eat all the desserts herself but... she mightOh, so that’s why you told Hida to start farming dessert ingredients earlier
“Yeah, first I need to gather all the ingredients. Once I’ve got those, I’ll use the money I earn to build the cotton candy tower.”
Ding!
[ eternalyg has donated 10,000 won! ]
Isn’t it kind of abusive to make Hida do all the farming alone? This feels like elder abuse ᅲᅲᅲᅲ
“If you’re gonna go there, telling a one-year-old to dig tunnels for cash is child abuse too. Checkmate!”
Elder abuse VS child abuse lmaoOne... year... old??? LOLCHECK! MATE!Grandma’s farming, baby’s mining—what is this, a life drama?Oh look, diamonds over thereThis suddenly feels kind of sad now
This kind of non-stop banter was how Diah kept the stream entertaining.
Since all viewers were seeing was her endlessly digging, she kept the chat alive with jokes to prevent boredom.
Ding!
[ ᄋᄋ has donated 1,000 won! ]
Aren’t you going to buy any invites?
“Oh, I will! I’m starting with Cream unnie. My goal is to invite all of Illusion Realm and make them work in my dessert shop.”
GaspDiah: “I now own Illusion Realm.”So she’s building a kingdom?Is this for real?Invites are expensive tho, how’ll you get everyone?She’s declaring Illusion Realm-wide slavery, omgWill they even get paid?
“Paychecks? What’s that? The dessert shop’s a way for us to make a living together. Ever heard of a ‘family-like company’?”
Evil boss alert“Family-like company,” yikesMight need to call the labor boardPretty sure I just saw an emerald nearbyDown with the tyrant!Do you at least offer health insurance?This is gonna spark a whole debate...
Just then, as Diah kept digging and hunting for profitable ores underground,
A ringtone rang out—a call from Hida, who was farming up on the surface.
[ Hello? ]
“Yes~. It’s your wife~.”
[ ...Unbelievable. ]
LOL“It’s your wife” lmaoConfirmed: Hida is the main wifeHida = speechlessOh you called your wife?Her voice jumped like an octave when Hida calledPretty sure Hida’s mad though ????????
From the other side of the call, Hida’s voice continued to come through the in-game phone item.
What began as a complaint about too much farming gradually turned into a full-blown marital spat.
[ When we got married, you said I wouldn’t even have to touch water! This marriage is a scam, a scam I tell you! ]
“Hey, how dare you raise your voice at your husband!”
[ Oh please. Weren’t you the one who promised to make me happy? Liar~ ]
Strictly speaking, this too was part of the entertainment.
RP (roleplay) was important in the
But then, as the bickering continued, Hida dropped a final warning:
[ You should be apologizing instead of yelling at me. Say you’re sorry! ]
“Wh-why should I?! Why would I?!”
[ Ho... oh. That’s how it is, huh? ]
⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡LMAOOOOEMERGENCY!!! Hida’s furious! ????Just say sorry already please ????This RP feels TOO realAAAA PTSD incoming ????Weren’t they supposed to be a cute couple?!
Then, after a brief silence—ding.

Ha-eun tilted her head, confused, then resumed her mining adventure.
She had no idea that aboveground,
Da-yeon was facedown in her soundproof booth, red-faced and completely flustered.
