The song wasn't perfect, and neither was the dance, but when the two were combined, they had a magical power that made it hard to look away.

The constant stomping on the floor also creates a unique aesthetic.

When the song ended, extremely enthusiastic applause came from the television.

The host covered his ears with his hands, and after a few seconds, he held up the microphone and laughed:

"This song is really amazing. Ms. Setsuna's singing and dancing are impeccable. The applause from the audience is the best proof of that."

"Ms. Yukina, on behalf of the entire audience, I'd like to ask: Has this song been released yet? What's its name?"

On TV, Setsuna smiled slightly and said:

"This song is called 'Gokuraku Jodo'. Our agency was worried that no one would pay attention to it after its release, so they asked me to come on the show to promote it first. They said if the response was good, they would release the song directly, and if the response was not good, they would participate in more shows and do more promotion."

"I see. Based on my more than 20 years of experience hosting programs, this song is sure to be a hit. Let's wish Ms. Setsuna all the best in advance..."

Watching the television screen and listening to the host's praise, the Kogiso family suddenly realized what was happening.

Coming to their senses, they all stared intently at Setsuna.

"This song is amazing! Sister, is that woman singing on TV really you?"

"Yukina, congratulations, this song is sure to be a hit."

"Performing well."

Encouragement from her family boosted Setsuna's confidence, and she said with a smile:

"Thank you, but I wonder how the sales are? There are actually quite a few works that receive rave reviews but don't sell well."

As she spoke, Setsuna Ogiso took out her phone and glanced at the online sales platform.

The next moment, they were startled by the rapidly rising sales figures.

"Wow, that's amazing, it jumped to 20,000 in no time."

"Let's buy a few tickets to support our sister."

"No need! The firm will distribute the freebies to us tomorrow, and they'll give each of you one."

Chapter 233 At that time, will you take responsibility?

The song and dance alone are just average, but when combined, they have a magical charm.

Coupled with alluring moves, a clear rhythm, and electronic music, it quickly attracted countless fans in the current era of thriving anime culture.

Although many people did not understand what was so good about the song, it quickly became a hit among teenagers.

In just a few days, Ogiso Setsuna's fame skyrocketed, topping the list of trending online terms, and her photos appeared in many newspapers.

As for Setsuna herself, it was utterly unbelievable, as if she had woken up to find the world had suddenly changed.

On my way to school in the early morning, I noticed that the attitudes and expressions of my classmates had changed considerably.

"Senior Yukina, congratulations on becoming famous overnight!"

"Xiao Xun, please stop making fun of me."

"No, I'm serious. Your song has been incredibly popular online these past two days, and everyone's talking about it. Plus, it's selling very well."

"So, does that mean my debut was a success?"

"Of course! If this isn't considered a success, then the world's standards for success are far too high. I checked while I was having breakfast just now, and online sales have already reached 60."

"It's all thanks to Musashino's reputation."

"That's certainly a factor, but your outstanding performance is also a very important reason."

After chatting for a while, the two arrived at the foot of the teaching building. Since the shoe lockers were in different locations, Kaori Miyazono smiled and waved goodbye.

"See you this afternoon, Setsuna-senpai."

"Okay, see you this afternoon, Xiao Xun."

After changing her shoes, as she walked upstairs to her classroom, Setsuna suddenly noticed Touma Kazusa coming from another direction, and greeted her as usual.

"Good morning, Touma-kun."

Touma Kazusa didn't reply, but as they passed each other, she murmured something:

"Congratulations, Setsuna."

Upon hearing this, Ogiso Setsuna was slightly taken aback, then turned around abruptly, only to find that she had already walked away into the distance.

When we greeted each other a few days ago, we didn't get a proper conversation. Just now, I only said something out of politeness and subconsciously, without expecting a response.

Rather, she was mentally prepared to be ignored like she had been a few days ago.

'It seems Touma-san is also paying attention to my affairs.'

'Her cold attitude probably stems from the same thing as me—she's not mentally prepared to be friends yet.'

After all, although Mr. Masamune was unwilling to admit it, everyone knew that he could predict the future.

Everything in the script is something that was originally going to happen.

I know it myself, and Touma knows it too.

Others might treat those stories as trivial, but as someone directly involved, it's impossible to simply laugh them off.

Immersing myself in their feelings, I felt somewhat awkward every time we met.

As soon as I entered the classroom, many girls gathered around me.

"Kiso, I didn't expect you to dance so well. I bought two of your records; they're really beautiful."

"When I went to karaoke yesterday, I found that your song was already on the playlist. It won't be long before you become a celebrity, right?"

"No, Kogiso is already a celebrity. As long as her popularity stabilizes and she releases a few more good singles, she will soon become a popular female singer."

"That's right, that's exactly it! Please give me an autograph first, as a souvenir."

"I want one too! This is Kogiso's first autograph since he became famous, I have to get it!"

Yukina smiled and agreed to each one, while unconsciously thinking:

This song is indeed very good, but the next song is the key.

If their debut song is this amazing, and their next song isn't as good, it feels like they'll be in a situation where "debuting is their peak".

But is it really possible to find another song of this caliber?

……

In the afternoon, after being picked up by her manager in Musashino, Ogiso Setsuna went straight to the president's office on the third floor.

After knocking on the door and finding no one responding, he wondered if the person wasn't home. He pushed the door open and suddenly saw Masamune wearing headphones, sitting in front of his computer humming a song.

I tiptoed to the side, and a very low singing voice reached my ears.

'What a sweet song!'

Although it sounds a bit awkward for a man to sing it, the lyrics are easy to remember and catchy, so it's not too strange.

"How did you come!?"

Suddenly noticing someone standing next to him, Masamune was startled and hurriedly took off his headphones and turned off the recording app.

“Mr. Masamune, I heard everything.”

"Forget it, you didn't hear anything."

"Huh...? This isn't anything shameful, there's no need to panic like this, is there?"

"What you just experienced was all your hallucination. Once you're out of this door, no matter who you tell, I won't admit it."

"..."

Yukina paused for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh, and asked instead:

"Is Mr. Masamune writing a song?"

"No, I'm writing down the songs I heard in my dream, and I'll ask someone to improve them later."

"I see."

Setsuna quickly realized that since the president could foresee the future, this must be a song written by someone in the future.

"Our company has signed several musicians, right? There shouldn't be any need to find outside collaborators, right?"

"This will produce the best results."

"Well... I mean, if someone could predict the future, I don't think it would matter if they copied some works from the future. It's not illegal."

"My conscience won't allow it."

Yukina was speechless, thinking to herself:

That makes some sense, but it's just too much trouble.

Even though it's a work that's only going to be released in the future, they still go to great lengths to find the person in charge, asking them to improve the song under the guise of collaboration, and then giving away a large sum of money for nothing.

Faced with free money, the person involved certainly wouldn't refuse, and might even be cursing the fool in their heart.

If it were me, I definitely wouldn't consider so many things.

"Mr. Masamune, is this my next song?"

"see your performance."

"Huh...? What happened just now? Mr. Masamune wouldn't be so petty, would he?"

"That's hard to say, I'm actually not that big-hearted."

"Hehe... I've already forgotten."

Setsuna thought for a moment, then walked behind Masamune and began massaging his shoulders.

"Mr. Masamune, before I was old enough to work, I often earned pocket money from my father at home in this way. How do you feel about the force?"

"Smart."

Masamune smiled, but did not refuse.

"Mr. Masamune, this song is so sweet, what's it called?"
