Omnibus Anime: In a Music Anime, Relaxed and Happy

Under Yoruna's puzzled gaze, Bai Qiu hurried over to retrieve the paper airplane.

"Why did you pick it back up?"

Looking at the petite girl, Bai Qiu didn't feel any anger. He simply lectured her, "Listen here, little lo—little one, this kind of behavior is wrong."

"Why?"

"I'm a Third Year Student."

She looked slightly surprised, but Bai Qiu just smiled. If you put it that way, I don't have any psychological burden anymore.

"Do you want to go inside and take a look? It's very interesting."

Bai Qiu pointed at the flyer, then gestured toward Starlight behind him. Yoruna looked curiously at the underground passage, and her eyes lit up. The long staircase and the slightly dim environment immediately piqued her interest.

"They even include a drink," Bai Qiu tempted her.

In reality, the ticket price for Starlight was 1,500 Yen, 500 of which covered the cost of a drink. This was higher than the prices at a convenience store or a vending machine.

"Do they have a Matcha Parfait?"

Yoruna looked up, her beautiful heterochromatic eyes fixed on Bai Qiu.

"Matcha Parfait..."

Bai Qiu rubbed his chin and thought for a moment.

Starlight had quite a variety of drinks.

But they all seemed to be sodas, energy drinks, juices, beers, and the like.

As for a Matcha Parfait, it was hard to say.

However, this was about attracting customers.

"There should be. Just go inside and see for yourself; you won't be disappointed."

Anyway, I'm just the one handing out flyers.

As for whether there is a Matcha Parfait inside, that is something for the Manager to worry about.

Yoruna dragged her case, intending to step past Bai Qiu.

"Wait, you haven't bought a ticket yet."

Bai Qiu took out a ticket and held it out in front of Yoruna.

Yoruna took the ticket.

Bai Qiu blocked her path again.

"You haven't paid yet."

Yoruna looked up at Bai Qiu, confused.

She remembered that it didn't cost anything to enter RiNG.

You only had to pay when you ate a Matcha Parfait.

Bai Qiu extended his palm and smiled. "Well, 1,500 Yen."

Yoruna fumbled in her pockets for a while. After finding the money, she opened her petite hands and held them out in front of Bai Qiu.

Does this mean I'm supposed to take it myself?

Bai Qiu was slightly stunned, looking at the Yen notes that had been crumpled into little paper balls.

After picking out 1,500 Yen.

Bai Qiu waved his hand happily. Finally, he had made his first sale.

"Go on in."

Yoruna walked to the stairs.

"I can't get it down."

She turned back to look at Bai Qiu.

"Sorry, that was my oversight."

Bai Qiu helped Yoruna move the case down and took the opportunity to return the paper airplane from earlier to her as well.

Returning to the shade outside, Bai Qiu felt quite pleased.

He hoped the few remaining flyers would attract one or two more customers.

Goto Hitori was facing her biggest challenge of the day.

Nijika had gone to the restroom.

So now, Goto Hitori was alone at the drink counter.

"S-s-sorry, it seems we don't have... matcha parfait here."

Facing the white-haired girl who was a head shorter than her.

Goto Hitori looked down at her, yet her body was trembling uncontrollably.

Yoruna opened her small mouth slightly.

"N-no... we don't."

"There is. The man outside said there is."

Yoruna stepped forward, placed both hands on the counter, and stared intently at the rows of drink machines behind it.

As for Goto Hitori, she felt like the girl might eat her at any moment. Terrified, Hitori clutched her head and shrank down beneath the counter, muttering to herself.

"Don't eat me, please don't eat me..."

"Interesting woman."

Yoruna turned her gaze to Goto Hitori.

Nijika, just coming out of the restroom, happened to see this scene.

She ran over at full speed.

Seeing that it was just a little girl, Nijika was somewhat surprised.

However, there were no age restrictions for entering Starlight.

But beer was definitely out of the question.

"Excuse me, is there anything you need?"

"Matcha Parfait."

Nijika was slightly taken aback. "Eh? You want a Matcha Parfait?"

Yoruna looked toward the drink machine, unable to wait any longer.

"I'm sorry, we don't have Matcha Parfait here."

Nijika said apologetically.

Yoruna froze, and then her disappointment became visible to the naked eye.

"Lying man."

Yoruna muttered under her breath.

However, Nijika didn't hear her clearly, so she asked again, "Is juice okay?"

Yoruna answered listlessly.

Seeing this, Nijika remembered that there were some snacks left over from the Kessoku Band meeting yesterday.

"Right, can I give you some snacks as well?"

Yoruna perked up. "Mm!"

"Nijika, I'm starving too."

Yamada Ryo suddenly appeared, leaning her hands on a broom as she spoke.

"Got it, got it, you get some too."

Nijika decided to get some food for everyone.

Not long after, Bai Qiu finished handing out the flyers.

Perhaps it was because the first sale had opened the floodgates, but his luck had turned, and he successfully sold two more tickets afterward.

Under the surprised gaze of Ijichi Hoshino, Bai Qiu walked over with a smile on his face.

He saw Yamada Ryo and the others already sitting around the drink counter.

They were waiting in the back for the performance to begin.

"I'm back, everyone."

"Aki-kun, thank you for your hard work."

Nijika said with a smile, handing over a drink at the same time.

Yoruna spotted Bai Qiu.

"You lying man!"

Ijichi Nijika, Goto Hitori, and Yamada Ryo all looked toward Bai Qiu with different expressions.

Bai Qiu's face changed. Why are you here too?

Yoruna stared at Bai Qiu, her cheeks puffed out in anger.

The man in front of her had told her there was a Matcha Parfait here.

That was the only reason she had come in.

She had spent 1500 Yen.

Yoruna didn't have much of a concept of money, but she knew one thing.

At this price, she could buy two Matcha Parfaits at RiNG!

In the end, it was Nijika who asked first, "Yoruna, are you a friend of Aki-kun?"

Making friends already?

As expected of Nijika.

Bai Qiu answered with a guilty conscience, "Ahem, she's a customer I recruited."

Nijika more or less understood what was going on and said with a hint of seriousness, "Aki-kun, you shouldn't lie to people."

Otherwise, you'll end up just like Ryo.
