Joker's Band Game Story

"Oh, Lenai, you're here! Want some candy?"

Noticing Yoro's arrival, Hongxia reached into her pocket and pulled out a piece of candy.

"want."

Ryuna took the candy and happily ate it. Looking at this quirky girl, Kita found her exceptionally cute.

It's a silver cat after all—it's normal for it to look cute.

Hongxia noticed that Kita was staring at Ryuna, so she introduced Ryuna to her: "She's the daughter of someone in the same industry. She usually likes to play guitar by herself and always hangs out with Ren-nii. She's a typical cat-like girl~"

"Eh~ a cat-like girl~"

Upon hearing this answer, Kita moved closer to Ryuna and twitched his nose.

Hmm, it smells strongly of dust.

Looking at her dirty clothes, she really seemed like a cat that liked to run around outside.

"Ah, Lian is on stage."

Seeing that Ren Amamiya had already gone on stage, Ryo reminded the others not to say anything more.

After noticing this, everyone stopped talking and watched the band's performance.

Ren Amamiya quietly sat down at the drum set, and after the lead singer mentioned himself, he introduced himself briefly and then waited quietly for them to finish speaking.

After they finished speaking and looked at him, he began to gently tap his drumsticks, providing rhythm for the others.

After striking eight beats, he immediately started playing the drums, and the quiet venue instantly became lively again.

Today was just another ordinary day, but I was anything but ordinary!

The lead singer grabbed the microphone and immediately started singing, and everyone picked up their glow sticks and waved them around.

Yutenji's eyes lit up immediately. She could clearly hear that Amamiya Ren's technique was significantly better than that of the previous bands.

Even someone like her, who's not really an expert, could tell the difference, let alone someone who is.

"The greatest advantage of the lotus is that it knows how to conceal its strengths."

Does concealing one's strengths count as an advantage?

Yutenji didn't understand why he wasn't using his full strength.

This is also a common misconception among beginners: they think that since they are very good, they should give full play to their full strength.

So Xingge explained it to her: "Because of collaboration. Amamiya and the others are in a band, so they have a collaborative relationship. Therefore, when facing a band that is not as good as his, he should slow down and blend in with them. If he performs too well, he will steal the show. But I remember the next song is the drum set's main act, so maybe you will hear Amamiya perform next."

As for Ren Amamiya's performances, Hoshika also enjoys watching them. Although she doesn't know why he has so much experience, she has to admit that watching him perform is a pleasure.

For Amamiya, the fact that he could satisfy his basic needs in his previous life speaks volumes about his skill level; after all, someone who wasn't skilled would starve to death.

"coming."

After the first song ended, the band only said a couple of words before starting the second song. After a familiar eight beats, a burst of intense drumbeats suddenly erupted.

Impressive, truly impressive. His control of the rhythm is exceptional. All eyes were on Ren Amamiya, who, despite sitting at the very back of the band, had become the center of attention.

The performance couldn't be stopped, and the music couldn't be changed, so even during a drum solo in the middle, he handled it with ease, directly energizing the atmosphere on stage.

"That's right, that's Amamiya's strength, that's Amamiya's level."

Xingge stood with her hands on her hips, watching Amamiya Ren shine on the stage, and she was overjoyed.

Chapter Fifteen: Missing a band? Didn't your sister just form one?

The feeling of watching Ren Amamiya's drummer perform can be perfectly described by one idiom: "a perfect balance of tension and relaxation."

He played intensely when he needed to, and stopped when he needed to. Aside from his solo performances, Amamiya played the drums very conventionally, without any fancy moves.

He even knew how to give space so that the sound wouldn't be cluttered, and overall it was quite soothing to listen to.

Compared to him, the disadvantages of the previous band drummers became immediately apparent: some stole the lead singer's rhythm, some were too flashy and lacked memorable moments, and some had inaccurate rhythms that disrupted the band's beat.

Only then did she understand what Xingge meant when he said, "His greatest advantage is that he knows how to hide his strengths."

His solo performances are incredibly impressive, but he doesn't flaunt his skills too much in everyday situations. Like the bass, both of them set the tone for the entire band. If either of them gets out of control, the whole band's performance will fall apart.

"Si Guoyi~"

Yutenji couldn't help but comment, already thinking about how to get Amamiya to teach her how to play the drums.

If he could teach me to play drums, such a great teacher would definitely make me incredibly skilled. Plus, with his good looks, and the occasional videos he posts online… oh~

Thinking this, Yutenji suddenly remembered something. She took out her phone and quickly browsed through her video browsing history. Soon she found a performance she had watched before.

He was also a drummer, and also Ren Amamiya; there, he even sang and played the drums simultaneously.

It's quite difficult for a drummer to be a lead singer, which further highlights Amamiya's extraordinary talent. Although the video was blurry, if you look closely now, isn't this Amamiya Renqun · Liaoyi Erlin IIIII Lingqi ⑻?

She had only thought the other person was amazing before, but hadn't made a conscious effort to remember them. Now, realizing how truly impressive they were, she understood the truth.

"Amamiya's strength goes without saying, but if you want him to teach you... you'd better think carefully about how to persuade him."

Xingge calmly left after watching Amamiya step down from the stage. She knew Amamiya would definitely come looking for Yutenji afterward, so she didn't need to stay there any longer.

Feeling a bit tired from standing, she decided to sit down and rest for a while.

"Phew, I'm back."

Ren Amamiya, with a slight sheen of sweat on his forehead, came out from backstage and returned to Yutenji's side.

He was unaware of his current charm; having just finished playing the drums, he was radiating a strong aura of hormones, and the powerful drum set was merely a warm-up for him.

Is this what physical fitness is like for young people? It's really impressive.

Things that I wouldn't have dared to dream of in my past life, I can easily do in this life. Young people's bodies are just so full of energy.

Ren Amamiya couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Before he could even speak, he suddenly felt something soft against his arm.

It was Yutenji; she was looking at him with shining eyes.

Yutenji even hugged his arms tightly with both hands, and unconsciously rubbed his body against them.

“Miss Yutenji, you seem to be standing too close.”

Ren Amamiya felt that she should keep some distance from the other person, as their relationship was that of a middleman and client, and should not develop into anything else.

As an adult, he understands all too well the importance of relationships. Once a relationship becomes ambiguous, it's easy for unexpected things to happen.

"Hey~ Amamiya-kun, could you teach me how to play the drums?"

She had just learned Amamiya Ren's real name from Hoshigo, and now she immediately started trying to get close to him.

In stark contrast to her previous cold and aloof demeanor, she now seemed rather clingy.

"But I'm just recommending it to you..."

"But I think everyone else's drumming isn't as good as yours~ I definitely need to find someone really good~"

Yutenji was acting coquettishly here, even rubbing against her more intensely.

Ren Amamiya tried to pull his hand away, but the other person held him tightly, making it difficult for him to free himself.

Now that they were surrounded by stars, he didn't want to yell, as it would disturb the other people enjoying the band's performance.

"I think Miss Yutenji should ask you to have some self-respect."

"Call me 'Meow Dream' now~"

What's wrong with this woman?!

Ren Amamiya could no longer understand this woman. What was she thinking?

Just a moment ago you were coldly referring to yourself as 'Yutenji,' but now you're suddenly calling yourself Meow Dreamer! You changed so fast!

"Prices are negotiable~ If it's Amamiya-kun, a higher price is fine too~"

Even if Ren Amamiya's fees are the same as the training courses, I'll accept it. What? You're saying you came here because it's cheap?

It's all for the sake of quality at a low price! Can a one-on-one tutor at a training center really be as good as Amamiya? She doesn't believe it!

Those tutors didn't seem to impress her at all, but Amamiya could easily demonstrate her strength.

Even if his skill level is not as good as those tutors, it's fine as long as he learns this. She's not learning to play drums to improve her music skills, but to gain popularity!

We can't afford to lose in terms of popularity!

"But about appearing on camera..."

"Hey~ Amamiya-kun, what are you hesitating about? You already have videos leaked, right? Or are you just nervous? You don't have to show your face~ Please say yes~ Please say yes~"

At this moment, even the little girl unconsciously picked up her chopsticks. Listening to her voice, which sounded like a cat being affectionate, Ren Amamiya never expected to encounter this situation.

If I had known this would happen, why would I have taken this order in the first place...?

"But……"

"No buts~"

Nyanko clung tightly to Amamiya, tiptoeing as she whispered in his ear, "If you don't want to, I'll harass you like crazy~ If you think the price isn't enough, I can give you something else~"

Other...things?

How could Amamiya not understand the subtext? He subconsciously looked at Meowmee, who also showed a pitiful expression, and a certain part of her body swayed a few times, as if she was seducing Amamiya.

Wow~ Isn't this woman being a little too forward?

Amamiya slowly looked away, feeling that he couldn't stand Nyanmu's actions anymore.

"I...let me think about it."

"Hey~ Are you really just considering it? I'm pretty confident in my figure, you know~"

"This has nothing to do with body shape."

As I said before, if I were to be blinded by greed and agree to their request now, it would really be a problem.

Amamiya had no intention of teaching anyone, because it was just too tiring.

If the other person is talented, that's fine, but the problem is encountering a slow learner.

He could easily agree without thinking and then take the money to start fooling around, but his conscience wouldn't allow it.
