393. The Storm Is Just Getting Started
The Tengu scattered, and multiple cameras focused on the stage.
Shuya brought his Little Senior Sister and two middle-aged men who were just there as tools to help him onto the stage.
The stage's Demonic Arts hasn't been lifted yet.
Shuya and the others tested the equipment first, and only after confirming that there were no problems did they finally break the Demonic Arts.
The Half-Monster and Monster students at Minegahara High School had long been eager to participate.
As soon as the Demonic Arts disappeared, they immediately pretended to be surprised and pointed to the stage on the playground, guiding their classmates to look.
The high school went from quiet to noisy, with students crowding around the windows.
Mai stood at the back of the crowd, looking out the window.
She saw Shuya.
Shuya also saw her.
Their eyes met for a fleeting moment.
Mai realized something, her heart suddenly started racing, and a blush crept up her fair face.
Shuya withdrew his gaze, looked at the school building opposite, and said to Mai, "Hello everyone! I'm very sorry to bother you all so suddenly. I'm Inoue Shuya!"
He started with a down-to-earth opening remark.
In short, when in doubt, apologize first.
"Shu-chan ---!"
"Liar, liar, what brings Shu-chan here?"
"Ah---! Shu-chan!"
I'm going to die!
The female students' screams were extremely piercing and frantic.
The male students also spotted their Little Senior Sister, and a deafening cheer erupted.
The Little Senior Sister remained unmoved; she wasn't listening at all, she was just waiting for the performance to begin.
"I came to this school today because I wanted to dedicate a few songs to someone important."
Shuya shouted at the high school with about a thousand students.
He wouldn't be intimidated by such a small occasion; on the contrary, he got excited.
He pointed to the third floor of the teaching building, his voice amplified through the microphone and broadcast, reaching the entire school and even the world. "Sakurajima Mai from Class 1, Grade 3! My childhood friend! You better listen up!"
"..."
Mai looked at Shuuya pointing at Shuya from the third floor, her heart filled with something, and she couldn't help but smile.
Meanwhile, Haruno, watching the live stream, crossed her arms and chuckled.
Yukino, her face expressionless, was completely absorbed by Sakurajima Mai's name in the clubroom.
Yuigahama, who had also run away, was marveling at how Hikigaya truly deserved to be called the king of popular people.
On the other side, Ayase and Kirino also hid to watch, Kirino's screams never stopped.
Hanazawa Sakura was also watching with a smile. Inoue Hikoo noticed that his subordinates were openly slacking off and watching the fun, but he didn't say anything.
At Minegahara High School, Shuya was already prepared:
"I'm telling you guys..."
"Teaching ye なんてくだらねぇ, I の をけぇぇぇぇぇぇぇ!" (Rough translation: Come and listen to me sing!)
"The end of the world---!"(Until the End of the World)
Shuya and just then, the sounds of drums and zithers began to play, and his Little Senior Sister lowered her head and started playing the bass.
Soon, the soaring guitar melody joined in, and the catchy tune immediately drew people in.
"I'm all alone in this city, like a discarded beer can."
"If love requires exploring every detail of each other, then we might as well sleep forever."
After a pause of one second, the previously languid voice underwent a dramatic change, its penetrating, clear high notes striking straight to everyone's hearts:
"The end of the world is the end of the world, and the end of the world is the end of the world!"
We will never be apart, Until the End of the World!
These lyrics are like piercing through the dark clouds, bringing sunshine, and inevitably giving people goosebumps.
Mai took a step and turned around without hesitation, rushing out of the classroom and running downstairs to the main gate. However, she did not enter the playground; instead, she stood there blankly at the entrance.
Shuya continued singing:
I've made wishes on countless nights.
"Why is time, which is gone forever, so dazzling?"
"To kick a broken heart when it's down."
"A faint longing, on this tragic night---"
Section 422, Chapter 393: The Storm Has Only Just Begun
The singing stopped briefly before people realized what was happening.
This should be the first time Shuya has demonstrated his amazing singing skills.
His previous role songs weren't difficult, but this time he really surprised everyone.
"Alliance Leader!"
"Alliance Leader ---!"
Outside the camera's view, Shuten Gozaburo and other Monster were having a blast wielding lightsabers.
The Danmaku was exploding with comments.
There were discussions about the lyrics, and also about singing skills; it was all quite chaotic.
Shuya continued singing:
"Before the world ends, who will tell me a misfortune that most aptly describes the blooming of flowers?"
Everyone is full of hope, yet no one believes in forever.
"But they must also be dreaming of tomorrow, of this fleeting time, in this tragedy night---"
Shuya finished singing another verse, he lowered his head and began playing a cool guitar tune.
Then he sang the last part:
"The end of the world is the end of the world, and the end of the world is the end of the world."
"はかなきい,このtragedy night,"
"このtragedy night"
When he sang the last note of "Kono Tragedy Night," his voice was high, long, and steady, combined with the passionate guitar sounds, resulting in a perfect performance.
The music gradually stopped.
The live broadcast was already filled with a dense barrage of Danmaku.
"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, divine song!"
"Shu-chan!"
"Is this an original song? I couldn't find the original composer?"
"Didn't you know Shu-chan is also a very good composer? Although he doesn't compose much."
"It must have been my older sister who helped! My older sister, ahhhhh!"
"It sounds so good! 66666!"
"Those high notes are so captivating!"
"Wait a minute, was he singing this for Sakurajima Mai? Is this the start of something big?!"
I'm so envious of Ms. Sakurajima!
"Is it New Year's Day for the Inoue Mai Party?"
"But it's me Inoue Seisen, who's supporting you from behind! It's obvious who the real wife is!"
Shuya's Power of Will was constantly monitoring the Danmaku.
When he saw the increasing number of discussions about Mai- chan in the Danmaku, he knew he had guessed correctly.
It worked!
Strike while the iron is hot!
He glanced at Mai, who was standing Mai at the entrance to the playground, and then said to the students cheering and crowding around the school building windows, "Thank you everyone!"
"Well, actually, this performance was approved by the principal, so everyone can come down to the playground to watch... Um, the next song is also a new one."
"もできない."
After announcing the song title, Shuya and his Little Senior Sister exchanged a glance and began to play.
Then, following the drumbeats, he sang:
"もできないくらい!ねえ, にだよ!"
Shuya deliberately winked his right eye at Mai cheeks turned as red as apples.
The lyric, "I'm so captivated by you I can't breathe," is so direct.
As expected of my Little Senior Sister's lyrics!
"What's the reason for leaving the center of the wrist?"
Even when we're apart, I still feel like I'm in your arms.
After the lyrics were sung, during the interlude, the students, led by their tutors, ran towards the playground, which quickly filled with students.
The students cheered excitedly, instantly creating a concert atmosphere.
"If you put your ear close and listen carefully, you can hear your heartbeat."
"Chatting freely with friends and family,"
"These are all important moments for me..."
Mai was pushed to the front of the playground as the students surged in.
Everyone's eyes were on her and Shuya.
For them, the impact of this concert was truly unforgettable.
Shuya, relieved of his worries that had lasted most of the day, continued singing with great enthusiasm:
"A doubtful heart, a confused mind, cannot be expressed."
"I will never compromise if I am misunderstood."
"Stride forward in the world of imagination."
As he sang the last verse, he skillfully strummed the guitar while glancing at his Little Senior Sister with a smile.
After the music ended, the Little Senior Sister tacitly continued:
