What's Wrong with Adding Me to All These Omni-Anime Geniuses?
Toyama Kasumi was about to put a piece of tamagoyaki from his lunchbox into his mouth, stopped what she was doing and checked it again.
"That's right."
"I saw them a few days ago, at RiNG. They also held a live show during Golden Week."
"I see... Have you heard them say anything? Like about their professions or contracts or anything like that..."
He asked tentatively.
He chose to turn a blind eye to the fact that Minato Yukina and the others had signed contracts but were still going out to hold live performances at will.
After all, the contract he gave them didn't stipulate that they couldn't do that, although it probably wouldn't work if they switched to another management company or record label.
After all, the money from a regular live show, after deducting costs and their own income, isn't much left, so the company wouldn't bother with it.
Furthermore, appearing in public casually would also affect their commercial value.
"Ah~ Speaking of which, I recently heard that Roselia and the others signed contracts and went pro. That's amazing."
Ichigaya Arisa chewed on a fried egg and said casually.
"With their talent, it's only a matter of time before they become professionals."
Okusawa Misaki chimed in with a reply.
"It's a real shame, though. If it had been a few months earlier, they could have debuted as high school students, which would have caused quite a stir, wouldn't it?"
"Ako is still a high school student!"
"Ah, um, but the other four are all college students."
"That's great~ When can we sign a contract and go pro, Arisa ~?"
"Don't ask me! If you have this idea, then just train even harder!"
"Eh--?! I've already tried my best! Even my part-time job! If I try any harder, I'll break like a guitar string!"
"Don't worry, Kasumi has the stamina."
"..."
Ogura Asahi overheard their conversation and realized that Minato Yukina and the others probably hadn't told them about that matter yet.
Why? Why don't you take your boss's words seriously?
Or perhaps they plan to get used to things here first, observe the situation, and only invite them after confirming that everything is truly alright?
If that's the case, then it's not impossible.
With their endorsement, PPP and HHW would be more willing to trust them. If they also learned that he was the mastermind behind it all, the probability of them signing a contract would be very high!
He nodded silently to himself.
Anyway, by now, he no longer has much of an urgent need to find new "suitable partners," and he's not even in a hurry to acquire new powers.
The people he meets now, if he spends a little time, are enough to help him solve his problems.
Even if he has gained less than 30% of the power, he is already powerful enough.
Besides, matters of the heart can't be rushed...
"And then? Asahi-chan, what do you want to ask?"
Toyama Kasumi then looked at him.
"Oh no, it's nothing,"
He laughed and changed the subject, saying, "I just heard about their signing, so I was a little curious."
"I see, they really are amazing!"
"Mmm, that's impressive... By the way, is Kasumi-senpai going to work today too?"
"No! I'm not scheduled to work today. I tried my best the past few days!"
"I see... Senior Shin, how did you spend your Golden Week?"
"Take Misaki and the others to my mansion, cruise ship, amusement park, visit Kanon and the others' school, hold a live performance, travel abroad..."
"What a wonderfully well-organized and elaborate arrangement! As expected of you..."
"..."
After lunch, just in time for class, Ogura Asahi returned to the classroom to avoid being surrounded by the noisy crowd again.
He ignored his teacher's words while pondering his next steps.
Should I go hang out at Miyako Shizuka's studio, or go to the Gal Studio to tease Kasumigaoka Utaha...?
Or you could go on a date with Touma Kazusa, visit Saitama Kitagawa Marin and the others in Saitama, go see Sakurajima Mai... or even go to Kyoto to see Tanaka Asuka and the others again.
Ya Lei, Ya Lei, now that you've mastered the art of spatial teleportation, traveling is so much easier!
Studies suggest that people spend at least several years of their lives on the road.
If we specifically target office workers in large cities, this percentage of time would be even higher.
If we apply this to Master of Time Management like him, the impact of traffic on his plans is simply immeasurable!
The simplest example is that because he couldn't teleport, he could only use that precious time after school each day to do one or two things!
If I go to the gate where Haneoka and the others are, I can't go to work; if I go to the apartment, I won't have time to go anywhere else...
And now!
He could easily go to the door during his work breaks, go to the studio during cosplay time, or go to the Fuchu to have physical and emotional exchanges with Shiina Mahiru during breaks from teaching Esther to draw design drafts... His time management skills have been enhanced to an epic degree!
This is the useful ability he's always dreamed of!
As expected! Spatial skills are an essential skill for every transmigrator!
Oh, yes! Oh, perfect!
So now we know why he was so happy this morning—it wasn't entirely because his survival skills had improved, and his efficiency had also increased significantly!
And this useful skill is just one of the skills he has.
Thinking about the remaining ones that hadn't been unlocked yet, he was already eager to try them out. He even wanted to skip class and go out to meet someone!
Um?
He glanced at the phone he had secretly placed in the drawer; the screen lit up as it received a message.
Of course, this is not surprising. Even during class, his phone usually receives a message every half hour at most.
What puzzled him was the Chinese name written on it: Li Xi.
He glanced at Shiina Rikki, who was propping up his cheek with one hand and secretly placing the other hand underneath, seemingly doing something, and looked at him with surprise.
He'd seen her daydream and not listen in class many times, but this was the first time she'd ever secretly texted him during class.
Not to mention in class, even in ordinary times, she hardly ever communicated with me.
Every time, I would force myself to find a topic and repeat what I had practiced countless times with other girls.
Only recently did he feel that her resentment and prejudice towards him seemed to have lessened somewhat—from not being considered human to "barely considered human, just human."
So secretive, are they planning to borrow money from me?
No, Kanau isn't there anymore; she shouldn't be short of money to buy Matcha Parfait.
It can't be tutoring, can it?
Hahaha!!! How could someone from Hanasakigawa be so studious!
That was... He opened his phone in a daze and took in the contents.
[Li Xi: Don't leave after school, come with me somewhere]
"..."
He looked up in slight fear, staring at the beautiful back covered by long Black Long Straight Hair, a chill running down his spine.
When did this guy embark on the path of no return to the underworld?!
What?! A month's worth of resentment was finally going to be unleashed on her today? The trigger was—her outstanding grades today, far exceeding her expectations!
Ugh! Insecurity really is poison! Jealousy can completely change a woman!
So he immediately replied with: OK.
After sending the message, while she looked down at her phone, his slender, pale fingertips gently touched her back, tracing soft circles on it...
Hmm~!
Shiina Rikki's delicate body trembled, her back shrank forward, and then she quickly turned her head, glaring at him fiercely as if she wanted to kill him.
"Classmate Shiina? What's wrong?"
Her violent movements attracted the attention of the teacher.
Whether the other party actually guessed that it was Ogura Asahi's fault based on her turning around is unknown.
"... nothing."
She gritted her teeth and forced out those words, then turned back around... and pulled her chair forward as she did so.
Hehe~ Ogura Asahi's eyes crinkled into a smile as she thought to herself, "So Kawaii ~"
After two classes, it was time for club activities.
Members of the Homecoming Club who don't have classes can go home now.
"Kairin, where are you going today?"
As soon as the teacher left the classroom, he turned to face Hachiman Kairin.
"Hmm? Me? Same as usual."
Hachiman Kairin packed her things into her schoolbag, she answered.
"Two bands are playing together today, so my time is a bit tight."
"Oh, I see. Have a safe trip!"
"Okay, you can do your best later too."
"Okay... um? Wait a minute?"
Hachiman Kairin smiled slightly, said nothing, and simply picked up her bag and left.
At this moment.
"You, come with me for a moment!"
Shiina Rikki's chilling voice, carrying a hint of death, echoed eerily from behind him.
The icy voice sent a chill down his spine.
After he turned around and stared at him with a death stare for two seconds, Shiina Rikki picked up his schoolbag, which he had packed earlier, and walked straight towards the door.
It was just a touch, how awful...
He shoved the unopened pencil case and books into his backpack and jogged after him.
Miyako Shizuka had already gone to work as usual, so there was no need to say hello to her.
Throughout the journey, no matter how he tried to strike up a conversation, Shiina Rikki remained unresponsive.
Only after they had walked some distance from the school gate, and under his repeated questioning, did she slightly close her beautiful eyes, and with a hint of reluctance, part her red lips to reveal her purpose for the day:
"... Our band is missing one person. Are you interested in joining us?"
Chapter 411 I'll always be your senior, right?
"Huh? What did you say?"
Although he understood, he still wanted to ask again.
Join MyGO, me?
He was faced with this question again, and he hesitated, wondering whether he should go after being invited by the two people inside.
After a quick thought, the answer quickly came to mind.
