Anime Crossover Livestream: The Second Dimension

Manami Aragaki exchanged a glance with Hatsune Miku, chuckled, nodded, looked out the window, and put her flute to her lips.

That innocent and adorable delicate face is deeply etched in my mind.

So cute.

Soon... beautiful and melodious notes and light and leisurely tunes blended and merged together.

Without hesitation, Aragaki Manami, who had promised to perform with all her heart, began to unleash the characteristics of her own [Phoenix].

phoenix.

It resonates with the eight winds and harmonizes with the five tones!

The music played by Hatsune Miku and Mana Aragaki transformed into a gentle breeze that swept across the land.

"The performance that Fujiwara-san mentioned..." In a corner of the playground, a cool-faced, beautiful girl with flowing hair looked toward the source of the music.

Suddenly, a faint, soft sound caught her attention.

She was a beautiful girl with a distinctive little braid tied around her forehead and her hair flowing freely.

There were several companions behind her, but they seemed to notice the cold-faced beauty's gaze and met her eyes...

"Humph!"

Two nearly identical cold snorts suddenly blended into the melody.

Chapter 45 [Phoenix] Characteristics! Shuchiin's Love Story!

The Book of Han records:

"The Yellow Emperor sent Linglun from Daxia... to create twelve bamboo tubes to listen to the cries of the phoenix. The male's cries were six, and the female's cries were also six. This was the Huangzhong note, and all of them could be used to generate the sound. This is the basis of the musical scale."

More than 5,000 years ago, during the time of the Yellow Emperor.

Ling Lun, one of the oldest gods of music in China, created and perfected the twelve-tone system of Chinese musical scales by using the sound of the phoenix.

The phoenix can be considered the origin of music.

If Manami Aragaki wants to play music with all her heart, she naturally needs to unleash the special power of "musical rhythm" related to the characteristics of the Phoenix.

[Wow! I feel like Aragaki-sama has become so much more handsome! Is it because serious men become more handsome?]

【That's not true at all! I'm a grown man, and I'm clearly developing a strange fondness for Mana Aragaki right now? That's odd.】

[Sounds amazing, heavenly voice! He looks even more handsome? Is it filtered?]

[This is clearly a buff, right? No, I can listen, but I can't watch anymore. I can feel my hormones surging...]

I'm a normal guy, and even though there are two cute girls in the music room, my eyes keep wandering to...

Aragaki Manami played the flute leisurely with a calm expression, showing no extra emotion.

He rarely unleashed this power, which was quite energy-consuming but actually within a manageable range.

Compared to the Phoenix's multi-talented abilities such as "Sun," "Wind," "Purification," and "Auspicious Signs," which consume a great deal of power, the "Music" skill, which is just a nice bonus, is really nothing.

But of course, it's best to use it as little as possible.

Most importantly, there was a comment in the live stream that almost made his scalp tingle – “Can you imagine countless men and women looking at you with indescribable expressions?”

At least, even the most resilient person like Manami Aragaki said she couldn't stand it!

Because he is a normal person.

The thought process is still within the normal range!

The reason is quite easy to explain—

The phoenix is ​​the king of all birds.

It brings together the charm of countless birds.

It is a collection of beauty, a manifestation of beauty, a reflection of beauty, and an embodiment of beauty!

In the simplest, most concise way, it's simply—"Beautiful!"

Furthermore, attributes related to one's own character and traits, such as "music," "cleanliness," and "nobility," can easily bring an extremely terrifying boost to his overall charm!

Therefore, he rarely used it.

Having high charm is generally a good thing, but if it's too high, then it's not.

The principle of moderation applies to everything.

He's already 20 years old, and he's lost all interest in showing off. He disappeared completely when he time-traveled!

Because I'm afraid of being proven wrong!

Besides! With two girls, Fujiwara Chika and Hatsune Miku, by his side, he would naturally try his best to restrain this "charm" that could be described as sorcery.

Fortunately, Chika Fujiwara's thought process is different from that of normal people, and Hatsune Miku was so immersed in her performance that she was not affected at all.

"We still need to use the power of 'wind' to control the range of the music."

"Although we say we should put our heart into it, if we put too much heart into it, it will definitely cause unavoidable trouble."

Manami Aragaki silently apologized to Hatsune Miku, who had been so sincere to him from beginning to end, and his performance was indeed much more earnest than the previous two.

The perspective shifts to the other side.

Even though the music room was quite far away, some people on the playground could still hear the music played by Mana Aragaki and Hatsune Miku and were drawn to it.

A group of students, who were having free time after a physical education class and some training, followed the sound with great interest.

Even though the sound could no longer be heard, many students knew that it was the location of the new school building.

The piano was placed only in the new school building.

The source of that beautiful melody, a blend of gentle flute and melodious piano notes, is the music room!

"Wow, that's amazing! To actually be able to follow behind the noble Kaguya-sama~?~"

"Waaaaah, I really want to be in a relationship! Why isn't Erika responding at all? Waaaaah!!"

"I...I have some thoughts about it too."

“…They’re such an easily influenced bunch.” The beautiful girl named Shijou Maki, with her distinctive little braid tied around her forehead and flowing hair, murmured unconsciously.

At first glance, she appeared much calmer than the others.

There was even time to go see other people.

For example, her maternal aunt even went along.

Hmph, you're affected just like everyone else!

If asked, I'd definitely use Fujiwara-san as an excuse. By the way, was that music played by Fujiwara-san or Hatsune Miku?

Their skills seem to be slightly better than Hatsune Miku's.

Suddenly.

Filled with pleading, anticipation, and shyness… the melody of what seemed like "love" began to resonate even more intensely—oh no! Oh no! It's almost here…

"Oh no!" The cold-faced beauty walking at the front of the procession, almost reaching the music room, seemed to realize something. Her expression finally underwent a subtle change, but it immediately became even colder. She gritted her teeth and thought to herself, "...It's just a sonata!"

Not far away, an elderly foreign man who had been standing by the corner of the window caught a glimpse of the beautiful girl's expression, and his inner emotions were quite complicated.

?~???~~?~?~

Music room.

Hatsune Miku closed her eyes, completely absorbed in the moment, her small, fair fingers dancing across the screen.

Each beautiful note seemed to carry a special emotional power!

The only listener in the room, Fujiwara Chika, was completely engulfed by the rolling waves of music, slumped back in her chair in an extremely undignified posture, sobbing softly...

"I really want to have a sparkly, dazzling romance!"

"I almost confessed my feelings to someone without even realizing it! I'm so excited!"

"I...I can't hold back anymore! I think...I think I see it..."

The pink-haired, blue-eyed girl can always ruin the atmosphere.

Manami Aragaki, who was watching all this while playing the flute, kept her gaze fixed on the piano the entire time.

He pondered to himself.

"The power of ghost stories is related to that couple around the 40th year of the Showa era."

He was actually very familiar with the manga and light novels related to the romance anime "Kaguya-sama: Love Is War," and understood the essence of this ghost story from the very beginning.

In the simplest terms... it's a love story about a girl with an extremely arrogant personality, almost a carbon copy of Kaguya Shinomiya, and a boy who relentlessly pursues her.

These so-called "campus ghost stories" have almost deviated from the category of ghost stories.

but.

Whether it's a ghost story or a love story, there seems to be a lot of profit involved.

As if sensing something, Aragaki Manami raised her eyes.

A hazy, indistinct gray substance appeared above Hatsune Miku and expanded outwards like a black hole, including the others who had just stepped into the school building...

"The combined power of seven campus ghost stories is quite impressive."

Aragaki Manan thought.

In a moment of daze, it felt as if I had entered another illusory and hazy world.

I could vaguely make out the aloof girl with long, flowing hair...

Chapter 46 Ghost Stories, Confessions, Kaguya Shinomiya

I looked up and gazed at them again.

Their location had shifted to an indoor corridor bathed in dim light.
