"So you and Ling are that close?" Eden asked curiously.
"I thought you'd say you wanted to form a band because you wanted to sing the class anthem for Aponia," she added.
"Mm-hmm, Ling and I have the best relationship in the world!" Russell nodded quickly, his face beaming with a smile.
"That's nice," Eden replied.
"So, you came to invite me to be the lead vocalist?" she continued.
"Yes," Russell answered firmly.
"Sakura is the guitarist, the Emperor is the drummer, you're the lead vocalist, and I'm the bassist," Russell explained. "We're already a complete Ending Band."

His words left Eden somewhat bewildered.
But this was hardly the first time something like this had happened, so she did not dwell too much on the details.
"Alright, where are we going to practice and get in sync? Where will the stage be set up?"
"When will Elysia appear as an audience member?"
Eden fired off questions one after another like a machine gun.
Russell made a suggestion to Eden.
"Let's just find a World within the painting to practice in first. We'll have the people in the painting act as judges, and once our score is high enough, we can ask Elysia to be the judge. How about that?"
"Alright."

it was naturally time to take action.
Russell lightly clapped his hands. In that instant, countless shadows came alive and moved toward their assigned destinations, searching for the promised drummer and guitarist.

He proudly announced today's great achievement
