Uma Musume Girl, I'll tell you about my Santa Hat special move too?

However, having just escaped the predicament, she knew even more that the danger had not actually left, and in fact, it had become even stronger.

If her subsequent response fails to satisfy this tyrant, then at the very least, she will suffer the fate of "Aili Digital, say goodbye to your original manuscript!"

Therefore, she, Ai Li Digital, is about to unleash a legendary ultimate technique to reverse her current desperate situation.

That is--

A move so perfect it's breathtaking, a movement only a racehorse girl with such incredibly coordinated body could make.

A 360° somersault followed by a prone, earth-sit-down squat!

"Red bean paste—red bean paste, the exclusive Mercedes-Benz style!!!"

Chapters 17 and 18: Let's take a photo album, Stardust Illusion

"This was all an accident! Lord Stardust Illusion!!!"

Having survived the desperate situation with an invincible dogeza (a form of prostration), Alice Digital finally relaxed and began to cry, hugging Stardust Illusion's thighs.

As the Stardust Illusion began to flip through the original manuscript that had been placed on the table, she dared not conceal anything and could only recount the whole story in detail.

After a long pause, upon hearing Alice Digital's report on the Stardust Illusion, he did not immediately express his opinion.

Instead, she sat on the bed and leisurely finished reading the comic in her hand before raising her head and looking at Alice Digital, who was sitting on the floor, with a cold gaze:

"This matter was not a big deal in itself, but you're the one who caused it, and now people are coming to ask me if I'm going to retire."

"What do you suggest we do?"

The Stardust Illusion startled Alice Digital for a while, but her anger had mostly subsided.

Since the other party didn't do it intentionally, she didn't criticize them too harshly... However, the matter was ultimately caused by Alice Digital, this obsessive sasaeng fan, and she had to handle it properly.

After all, I may not care about these small things, but it would not be a good thing if Mi Yu were affected.

It's definitely not because this Rudolph x Oguri Hat doujinshi is so well-drawn that she unconsciously wants a finished product!

"I have a way, I have a way!"

Alice Digital, clutching the manuscript as if it were her lifeline, racked her brains for a moment, then quickly raised her hand and shouted:

"Why not go public with your relationship with Miss Mi Yu... Ahhh!! Don't tear it up!!!"

"I won't talk nonsense anymore... I absolutely won't talk nonsense!!!! That's right, I really have a way! Stop Stardust Illusion, Lord!!!"

Seeing Stardust Illusion casually grab a piece of paper and prepare to use both hands to exert force, Alice Digital was so shocked that she screamed like a groundhog, clutching her head.

She quickly threw herself onto the stardust illusion, grabbing one arm to prevent an irreversible tragedy, and then rattled off her plan in rapid succession:

"The main reason this matter has been discussed so heatedly is that I directly deleted the picture, which caused everyone to speculate wildly."

"Because most people are just bored and randomly picking a topic to discuss, it's hard to dampen their enthusiasm."

"But a different approach would be different—since their essence is that they find this matter mysterious and worth speculating about and discussing, why not just give them the correct answer directly, what do you think?"

“…Go on.”

Although he himself didn't understand 70-80% of it, that didn't stop Stardust Illusion from pretending to be profound.

She merely raised her chin slightly, ordering Alice Digital to continue explaining.

"Okay, I'll tell you right now."

The pink-haired girl smiled like a sycophant and nodded hurriedly as she continued:

"So, you don't really care much about these photos I took, right, Stardust Illusion?"

"How about I take this opportunity to create a photo album for you, capturing your everyday life?"

"This way, you can say that you deleted the post to avoid premature exposure of the photos in the photobook, while also serving your fans and building up your popularity. It's a win-win-win situation!"

As they talked, Aili Digital couldn't help but become even more excited.

She could almost picture Stardust Illusion agreeing without hesitation, and then she would no longer need to disguise herself or sneak around, and could freely photograph her idol.

Hehehe... Just thinking about it makes my mouth water!

"A photo album, right?"

Stardust Illusion sat on the bed, crossed his legs, and looked at Alice Digital with a bright smile.

"Yes, yes, it won't take up too much of your time. You just need to authorize me to shoot and edit it, and I'll handle everything else—don't worry, I'm a professional in digital production..."

"Ahhh! Please don't hit me!!! Let's talk this out!! Is there something you're unhappy with about this plan!?"

Alice Digital spoke smugly, but before she could finish her sentence, she saw Stardust Illusion pick up several pages of manuscript paper again, as if to tear them up.

She immediately pounced on him again, begging and pleading desperately.

"You've already come all this way to have a photo album taken, and you're still asking me what I'm not satisfied with!?"

The stardust illusion drew closer to the digital form, its blood-red eyes meeting hers:

"I'm a legitimate runner. You dare ask me why I wouldn't want to gather fans by doing things like using color?!"

"Looks like you won't know you're wrong unless I teach you a lesson today, you little bastard!"

"Wait, wait, wait! I understand what you mean!"

Alice Digital pressed Stardust Illusion again with force, and before she could get angry, she quickly grabbed a bag of potato chips from the bedside table and stuffed it into Stardust Illusion's hand.

Seeing that Stardust Illusion had calmed down a bit and was preparing to eat something before continuing the conversation, Alice Digital breathed a slight sigh of relief:

"That's right. Actually, a photo album doesn't necessarily have to show a lot of skin. You can compile a photo album with everyday photos, training photos, and competition photos, and that can still be called a photo album... Let me show you a few examples."

To strengthen her persuasiveness, Aili Digital quickly turned around and started rummaging through her cabinet.

When she stood up and walked back, she had three photo albums with different covers in her hands.

Their cover images are as follows:

A nebula in the sky wearing angler overalls.

Tamamo Cross, sitting in front of a pushcart stall eating oden.

And Katsuragi Ace, blushing and looking shy in her swimsuit...

"No! This one doesn't count!"

Before Stardust Illusion could even get a good look at the contents of the third photobook, Alice Digital quickly took it back and handed over the other two.

"Take a look. The photos of Nebula Sky are mainly everyday photos, and there are also some from the competition."

"This is actually Tama's third photobook. The first two books have already used up most of the photos from competitions and training. This one is all about her eating snacks in various parts of Japan."

"Both of these books are highly regarded in our industry!"

Alice Digital held Stardust Illusion's hands tightly, a smile playing on her lips, her eyes shining brightly with gold.

"So let's leave everything to digital! I definitely won't take any outrageous photos! As long as we can produce the photobook, we'll kill three birds with one stone, wouldn't that be wonderful!?"

"Um…"

After flipping through Nebula Sky's photos, Stardust Illusion had to admit that if it were just these kinds of pictures, she wouldn't be so averse to them.

It seems like we could make one?

She turned her gaze to Aili Digital, making her final decision.

After a long pause, he finally spoke:

"No."

"That's good! I'll get the camera ready tomorrow...wait!?"

Completely unprepared for the other party's refusal of their voluntary labor, Aili Digital immediately showed a surprised expression.

However, the Stardust Illusion then continued unhurriedly:

"After you finish drawing this sketchbook, you have to send me a copy as well. This is one of the conditions."

Stardust Illusion handed over the original manuscript.

"Hehehe, I didn't expect you, Stardust Illusion, to have such good taste... Alright! It's a deal!!!"

Chapter 179 (6K) (plus 11.5) The Magic of the Match

"Stardust, stardust~ Please do the emperor a favor~"

A few more days passed, and it was early morning.

Stardust Illusion had just finished his morning exercise and was heading towards the training ground after having breakfast when he was pulled back to where he was by the Emperor, who appeared out of nowhere.

Looking at the little pony clinging to his right arm and acting cute, Stardust Illusion could only ask helplessly:

"So what's wrong? I have to go to training later, I don't have much time."

"Hehe, I knew Stardust would help... Here's the thing."

The emperor smiled shyly, his ears twitching back and forth, making one want to reach out and touch them.

"Even the emperor has inquired about it today; the honey drink vendor truck is operating in the park ahead."

"So, could Stardust accompany the Emperor to buy honey drinks? That way, we can buy more!"

"Buying more? Um... how much are you planning to buy if you need another person to help carry it?"

The following scene appeared in Stardust Illusion's mind:

They, along with the emperor, were covered in packaging bags for honey drinks, carrying hundreds of bottles of beverages as they walked back...

"Wrong! Wrong!"

Seeing the expression on Stardust Illusion's face, the emperor knew she had misunderstood and quickly waved his hands in denial:

"It's not what Stardust thinks!"

"Really... an emperor isn't a glutton like you. Even his favorite honey drink wouldn't be this much!"

At this point, the emperor angrily punched the piece of wood in front of him before turning around and leading the way. The two explained themselves as they walked:
