I became the emperor in the comic book series.

Even so, under these circumstances, she couldn't guess what this bad boy was planning to do with his hesitation.

Look at the shy expression on her face?

Or should we wait for her to take the initiative and challenge us?

Just as Ichika was about to speak, Akira Higashino spoke up.

"Sister Xingge".

After a moment's hesitation, the blonde woman's slightly shy and hesitant voice rang out softly, "Hmm...hmm?"

"Could you perform that?"

Higashino Akira looked at her expectantly.

Upon hearing this, Ichiji Hoshika paused for a moment, looking completely bewildered. "Huh?"

I had no idea what strange things this naughty boy was saying.

What performance?

Seeing this, Akira Higashino explained, "It's that, the thing you said to me when we first met."

After listening to Akira Higashino's words, Iji Tomoka fell into deep thought, trying hard to recall. After a while, she suddenly realized what he meant, and then her pretty face fell in annoyance.

I don't want to talk to him anymore, the atmosphere has already gotten this bad.

The indecisiveness about whether to fight or not left her feeling awkward and uneasy.

Ignore him, that naughty boy is too good at playing tricks on people!

Finally, the blonde woman reluctantly gave in, her face flushed with shame and a look of utter disgust. She drawled out her words, "I~will~always~keep~watching~you~~~"

As soon as he finished speaking, Higashino Akira smiled with satisfaction.

A sneak attack!

So, I've been saving up my ultimate move for so long, what are you doing, Sister Xingge?

A flash of cold light appeared first, followed by a flurry of spear thrusts!

Higashino Akira, who chose the jungler role, immediately used his ultimate and plunged into the bushes, catching the blonde older sister who was originally hiding in the bushes preparing to ambush him completely off guard. She exclaimed in surprise and cursed him for being despicable, a noob who couldn't play the game, and for trying to trick and ambush her when she wasn't paying attention.

He was frantically parrying and retreating, panting heavily and drenched in sweat, looking utterly disheveled.

In response, Akira Higashino readily accepted all of his opponent's criticisms.

"That's called outsmarting him, baby~"

Yiji Xingge: "******"

"So, you're not convinced?"

With a smooth combo, Higashino Akira once again subdued the blonde woman, thrusting his spear into her body and sending her game character flying, drastically reducing her health.

Of course, Ijichi Hoshika would not accept such a despicable tactic. Not to mention that she is proud and unwilling to admit defeat even though she knows she is bound to lose, even if she were not proud and unwilling to admit defeat, she still cannot admit it!

"Of course I won't accept it!" The blonde woman stiffened her neck and wrapped her legs around his waist, firmly controlling his body and pressing herself against him so that she could choke him with her hands. "You're 20,000 years too early to defeat me!"

Higashino Akira laughed. Where did this Ultraman Zero come from?

They immediately increased their attack speed and utterly routed the blonde woman.

Even after all this, she's still being stubborn.

I really like that guy, Ichika Ichiji.

With a high-pitched, mournful cry, tears welled up in the eyes of the blonde woman.

Higashino Akira asked her, "Are you convinced?"

Upon hearing this, Ichiji Hoshika turned her head away, her face flushed, and said, "I disagree!"

Great, very energetic!

A second time.

This time, Akira Higashino did not launch a sneak attack.

Instead, he gave the blonde woman ample room to react, determined to use his strength to make her admit defeat wholeheartedly.

Another fierce battle ended. Ijichi Hoshika's face was flushed red. She no longer had the strength to use joint techniques to lock Higashino Akira's body. She lay down softly, panting, her whole body covered in sweat.

"Have you accepted it yet?"

"...I disagree."

A third time!

Match successful, Akira Higashino begins battle once again.

The blonde-haired older sister was almost crying from the beating—no, she was already crying, making soft, muffled noises.

After finally holding on until the very end, I was humiliated for a long time by that wretched little brother who blocked me in the fountain. In the end, the crystal was shattered by the swarming enemy minions.

The blonde older sister is too exhausted to continue fighting and wants to log off.

She closed her eyes, her face flushed with embarrassment, and said, "I give up."

Upon hearing this, Higashino Akira grinned and said, "What did you say? I can't hear you."

A fourth time!

The battle reignited, and the panicked blonde woman quickly raised her voice, loudly surrendering, "I say I give up... I give up! I surrender!"

But Higashino Akira seemed oblivious, continuing to stand in front of the enemy's crystal base, blocking the blonde woman in the fountain, standing on the edge of the fountain and provoking her wildly, relying on his equipment and skill effects to go in and out.

Hey, I'm in!

Hey, I'm out again~

Oops~, I'm back in!

Oh no, I'm dead.

Just kidding, I'm alive again, hee hee~

Ijichi Seika's eyes turned red from the humiliation, her hair stood on end in anger, and a surge of power welled up from the depths of her body. She flipped over and straddled the bad boy, pinning him beneath her.

My password! I'm going to tell you!

While Akira Higashino and Seika Ijichi were engrossed in the game and engaged in a fierce battle, a petite and slender figure appeared downstairs and slowly made her way upstairs.

.........

.........

P.S.: 4,000+ words, combined into one.

Chapter 287 Xingge: Is she really more feminine now?

Pushing open the heavy, soundproof, and burglarproof alloy door, a faint, seductive melody assaults the senses like a demonic whisper.

At first, Ichi Nijika thought she might have misheard.

But after she went inside...

Hearing the increasingly loud noises coming from the upstairs room, and hearing her older sister's voice, which was all too familiar to her...

The girl froze in place, her cute, fair face instantly turning red.

No wonder my sister left in a hurry without even watching their performance. The band has been actively reducing their activities and announcements recently, saying they were busy with work. It turns out PA was right.

My sister really found a man!

And they even avoided them, specifically coming to the dormitory to have a date!

The loneliness that the girl felt from being alone at home vanished instantly.

Although she felt ashamed upon hearing the commotion, she decided to leave quietly so as not to disturb her sister and make everyone feel awkward. She decided not to be curious about who the other person was. If her sister thought he was suitable, she would definitely introduce him to her in the future.

After putting her schoolbag back on, Ichiji Nijika tiptoed to the door, just as she was about to leave and close the door!

Suddenly, in addition to the sister's voice, a man's voice could be heard upstairs.

Moreover, the voice sounded incredibly familiar.

"Are you coming or not?"

"No, I have to go home and take care of my younger sister later."

"Are you sure Xingge wasn't taken care of by Hongxia?"

"Mind your own business! Idiot!"

"bath?"

"Carry me."

Ichi Nijika's expression froze, as if struck by lightning, her face quickly turning deathly pale.

How could it be him?!

Isn't he Boqi Jiang's boyfriend? Why is he with his sister?

When...

Ichi Nijika trembled all over. With her last bit of rationality, she went outside, gently closed the door, and clung to a hope that even she couldn't believe: what if the person just sounded like Pochi-chan's boyfriend?

At this point, showing up to question things will only mess everything up and won't change anything, right?

She backed down.

Torn between her older sister and her close teammates, she racks her brains trying to find a way to please everyone and avoid hurting anyone.

.........

As night fell, in the midst of a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere at Ave Mujica, the team's spirits were restored.

At the company's request, everyone sat together in the living room, each using a small notebook to recall and record their experiences with the band and friends, to be used as material for the later animations "Mujica" and "mygo".

Except for some more sensitive and private content that they did not wish to disclose to the public, there was no concealment whatsoever.

For the first time, Toyokawa Shoko realized that she didn't understand her best friend at all.

From Xiao Mu's words, she seemed to see a confused, helpless, empty, and shaky figure. It turned out that Xiao Mu had never felt happy about music and performance. She had only forced herself to give, to act, and to grit her teeth at her own request.

Toyokawa Shoko felt incredibly guilty for not discovering this sooner, even though Mutsu had noticed something was wrong with her shortly after she went missing.

But when it was her turn, she couldn't sense Xiao Mu's true feelings...

The words he said to Su Shi more than a year ago have finally come back to haunt her like a boomerang.

It turns out that she was one of those people who had always only thought about herself.

She thought she had grown up and become a more mature and reliable Toyokawa Shoko, but all her achievements were pushing Komugi to the brink of danger.

What has she been protecting all this time?!

Shoko Toyokawa suddenly felt a heavy pressure, so heavy that she felt suffocated.

Besides Nyanmeng-san, who was unhappy with the band always appearing as masked puppets, Muko's problems were equally serious.

If she hadn't agreed to the group's promotional plan this time, she would never have known that the Ave Mujica band, which she had built with her own hands and thought was thriving, was actually already on the verge of collapse.

And she, all along, was completely unaware!

She couldn't even be sure if, besides Miaomeng-san, who had just settled down, and Xiaomu, who had just been discovered to have serious psychological problems, there were other hidden troublemakers in the band, waiting to explode at some point.

Shoko Toyokawa began to feel fortunate, fortunate that she hadn't realized what was happening at the moment the building collapsed, and fortunate that she had been pulled back from the brink of danger by that bad guy, and that he had saved her, giving her another chance to turn things around.

Ding-dong-

The doorbell rang, startling Toyokawa Shoko out of her reverie and causing her to snap out of her daze and get up before the others.

"I'll go open the door."

Even if it was just for a moment, the girl felt ashamed and guilty and wanted to escape from the scene.

As a result, when she opened the door, Toyokawa Shoko was devastated to find that standing in front of her seemed to be another troubled girl.

In the world of girl bands, everyone seems to have some kind of problem, and she is completely surrounded by problem girls.

Looking at Nijika Ijichi standing dejectedly at the entrance of their dormitory, Ijika had no idea what had happened to Nijika that made her, who had always seemed so healthy, sunny, and cheerful, look like this.
