Comet Dragon, breaking into the gravity field

……

Shoko Toyokawa was born into a wealthy family and was gifted. For her, a leisurely life was like an amber carpet spread out to her feet.

[Victor of the Revue War], [Blue Witch], [King of Puppets]... these are the honors and titles she has earned.

However, she, who was loved and admired by countless people, now had new troubles.

——7:00 AM——

Shoko Toyokawa paced back and forth in her boudoir, her eyes occasionally glancing at the other person who appeared in the room.

"I understand the situation now. To put it simply, it means 'I found you, who had lost your memory, and I'm raising you in my home,' right?"

"Yeah, that's it, Saki-chan~"

"Gu...I told you not to call me that!"

A sudden burst of shame erupted in her heart, and Shoko Toyokawa looked at the thing she had picked up with a flushed face.

Inside the room, a young man who looked about her age stood at the doorway, looking at her nervously. "Excuse me, do you want to change your address again? If so, how should I address you from now on?"

"...Just call me 'Xiangzi'."

"Eh? But wouldn't that be too much of an overreach?"

"That's it! Are you going to disobey my orders?"

"Oh, of course not! Then please allow me to call you 'Xiangzi' from now on."

Turning her back, Shoko Toyokawa stood in front of the window, putting her hand against her forehead.

She had heard the story of "Zhuang Zhou Dreaming of the Butterfly" before, and in her opinion, the situation happening now was similar to that story.

Ritsu Narushe, who was once an ancient dragon, has become so weak that people can't help but bully him, and she has become... What kind of a mess is that! ?

Ritsu Narose became her picked-up "pet", and the place where she lived turned into a gorgeous European-style castle - it was even named the headquarters of [Ave Mujica]. Even band members such as Mutsu Wakaba were forced by her to move into this castle under her control.

After some inquiries, Toyokawa Shoko finally understood what was going on...

This world is crazy!!!

——7:30 AM——

When they arrived at the restaurant, Ritsu Narose, who was working hard to survive in her habitat, was preparing breakfast for them.

At the dining table, everyone at [Ave Mujica] was seated.

Some of them held their cheeks and looked at the busy figure with a smile; some sat in their chairs blankly, not knowing what they were thinking about; some took out notebooks the size of their palms, as if they were recording something.

Seeing Toyokawa Shoko coming here, they all said good morning to her - everything here seemed so orderly and gorgeous like an aristocrat.

However, when a figure disappeared from the restaurant, Yutenji Wakami with mature makeup was the first to break the tranquility of the restaurant.

She watched Naruse Ritsu leave, then jokingly said, "If it weren't for Xiangzi, he would have found a girlfriend a long time ago. He has to reject confessions at school every day. It's so troublesome just watching him."

Hearing this, Toyokawa Shoko frowned and said, "School? Confession? Isn't our school a girls' school?"

"Yes," Sankaku Hatsuka replied with a smile as he spread jam on his bread, "but when you asked us all to transfer to Tsuki no Mori, Xiaoxiang, you even wanted to bring Mr. Naruse along with us."

"Ah, I remember now," Yutenji Wakamugi said excitedly. "It caused quite a stir back then. After all, there were so many students who didn't respect the principal and the board of directors! To dare to go to such lengths, you're truly worthy of being the captain of our Ave Mujica~"

"...Is it just him?" Shoko Toyokawa put down the teacup that almost splashed on her face, her expression looking very calm.

"Yes, and he is in the same class as Xiaomu." Sanjiao Chuhua replied.

Taking a deep breath, Toyokawa Shoko tried to suppress her inner turmoil and slowly looked at the green-haired girl who had remained silent at the table. "Mu, is that so?"

"Hmm..." Ruoye Mu nodded, then hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Lü... usually takes good care of me and endures a lot of trouble for me."

"Those young ladies, right?" Hachiman Kailing suddenly spoke after drinking the milk. "I heard some of them are very interested in Naruse."

Turning her head, she seemed to be gazing at a distant scene: "He should have boarded the train by now, surrounded by the JKs who voluntarily gave up their private car service and specially chartered the train to wait for him."

Hearing this, Yutenji Wakami suddenly perked up: "After all, a boy like Aru who looks calm but is actually very shy will surely be surrounded by students and treated like a scented person, enjoying himself."

With a grin on her face, she casually revealed the truth while taking a photo of her breakfast: "Fufu~ Maybe there's even an underground market secretly circulating his photos, and students are using them as a side dish for dinner~"

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Huh? Why is everyone silent?"

"Breakfast time is almost over, Miss Yutenji." Hachiman Kailing sighed and reminded in the silence.

——8:00 AM——

"Shoko, are you really not considering letting Mr. Naruse go to school with us?" After leaving the black luxury car, Sankaku Hatsuka looked at her companions, "Although it is to 'train his will', but..."

"Well, he's so popular that his classmates would go to the station to greet him. He might even be secretly happy about it."

Hearing this, Sanjiao Chuhua looked at the speaker coldly: "Even if it's Miss Yutenji, you can't use such excessive words, right?"

Putting on her Tsuki no Mori school uniform again, Toyokawa Shoko's mind was in a state of confusion, so she had no time to pay attention to the two people beside her. As she walked through the long-missed campus, she suddenly noticed Hachiman Kailing approaching her and handing her the notebook she had seen in the cafeteria.

"This is your job for today. It also includes the student intelligence you requested yesterday."

Yawata Kairin——She is a highly capable woman who is responsible for handling all matters of Ave Mujica and acts as Toyokawa Shoko's deputy.

Having fully understood the gap between this world and reality, Toyokawa Shoko no longer gets surprised by what's happening before her eyes. Because the boundary between dreams and reality can only be determined by one's own cognition, as long as she...

"Nagasaki Suyo!?" she asked in surprise when she saw the information on the notebook.

——Twelve o'clock noon——

"Tell me! How many people have confessed to you!" Blocking Ritsu Narose in an empty classroom, Shoko Toyokawa asked coldly.

"This……"

"What? Do you want to disobey my orders?" Realizing that this world is different from reality, Toyokawa Shoko also let herself go unknowingly.

Seeing the cute look of Ritsu Narose in front of her, she subconsciously licked her cherry lips.

"Of course I won't disobey Xiangzi's order, but..." He stretched out his fingers and counted on them, "One, two, three..."

"That's enough!" Toyokawa Shoko took a step forward, almost pressing her body against Naruse Ritsu. "I already know one of them!"

"Eh?"

"Nagasaki Suyo...that girl, I will never allow that girl to get close to her! I won't allow you to get close to her!"

"How could I possibly get close to her? Xiangzi is the only sun in my heart!"

"Hmph, I'm glad you know. Stay away from that heavy guy from now on." Seeing that Naruse Ritsu actually took the opportunity to hit a straight ball, Toyokawa Shoko blushed slightly, but she still didn't let him go, "You belong to me, do you know?"

"Yeah, my body and soul belong to Xiangzi!"

Even though it was just a dream, it was surprisingly moving...

The depression suppressed by reality was released at this moment. Toyokawa Shoko did not choose to let Ritsu Narose go, but continued to force him to repeat what he had just said.

"Are you going to say more?"

"Come on, repeat it to me again... No, repeat it to me three times!"

Staring blankly at the girl in front of him, Ritsu Narose closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then mustered up his courage and repeated his declaration loudly.

"My body and soul belong to Xiangzi!"

"Okay, very spirited!"

"My body and soul belong to Xiangzi!"

"do not stop!"

"My body and soul..."

"Captain, the seniors from [Morfonica] want to discuss something with you. Are you free now?"

The front door of the classroom was opened and Hachiman Kailing suddenly appeared there.

As if realizing what she had done, she looked around, her expression never changing: "Sorry, am I a third wheel?"

"No, no, no, that's not the case." Ritsu Narose said hurriedly, taking the initiative to cover up for someone who was embarrassed.

Her expression was calm, and Toyokawa Shoko showed no sign of panic: "Hmph... You came at the right time. Even if we are [Ave Mujica], we must still respect our seniors."

Seeing that she left the classroom first as she expected, Hachiman Kailing, who stayed where she was, smiled at Naruse Ritsu, then turned and left.

Their palms accidentally touched each other, and even though it was only for a brief moment, Ritsu Narose could clearly feel the marks left by her fingertips scratching his palm.

——Four o'clock in the afternoon——

Rushing to the agreed location, Naruse Ritsu looked hurriedly at the blue-haired girl in front of him with her arms folded and a dissatisfied look on her face: "I'm sorry I'm late. Something delayed me when I left the classroom."

"Nagasaki Suyo again?"

"How did Xiangzi know..."

"It's her! Is she planning to ask you to help out in her band?"

"Yes, she invited me to go to [RING] for tea and to watch the live show."

"Is that so? Why don't you go?"

"Of course it's more important to be with Xiangzi!"

Seeing his matter-of-fact reaction, Toyokawa Shoko finally smiled.

Pushing the blue hair behind her ears, she turned and walked in front: "Let's go, Mu also has time to go shopping with us today."

"oh oh……"

He answered quickly, and Narose Ritsu felt that Wakaba Mutsu, who had remained silent beside him, was approaching him.

Their eyes met, and he saw that the doll-like girl wanted to say something to him, but chose to give up after he noticed her.

——6:30 pm——

"Excuse me, does anyone else need more food?"

Still wearing her apron, Ritsu Narose walked nervously into the restaurant.

"I still need it, after all, I need to replenish my physical strength~" Yutenji Wakami raised his hand first and looked at Narose Ritsu with a smile.

As if he understood something from her words, Ritsu Narose's face turned pale, and then he walked silently to her side.

——Nine o'clock in the evening——

Shoko Toyokawa, who had already finished taking a shower, was sitting on the bed when she suddenly heard a knock on the bedroom door.

When she opened the door, she saw Ritsu Narose standing in front of her uncomfortably.

"It's time for bed, what's going on?"

"Well..." With the word "uneasy" almost written on his face, Naruse Ritsu looked at Toyokawa Shoko worriedly, "Because Shoko is a little different today, I'm a little worried..."

"I've already told you, what I'm experiencing now is just a dream." Ningji at night brought some clarity to Toyokawa Shoko, and she mused, "The dream world is like this, but this is the first time I've encountered a lucid dream that's this clear and lasts this long. Maybe I'll visit this world again next time."

"Is that so..." Despite his ignorant expression, Naruse Ritsu couldn't help but smile, "Good night then, and have a sweet dream."

"Good night." Nodding, Shoko Toyokawa said goodbye to him.

——Nine five in the evening——

Back in her room, just as Ritsu Narose was about to turn on her bedside lamp, she saw a figure crawling out of the quilt and suddenly pounce on her.

Yutenji Wakamu, who was wearing cat ears and a cat tail, saw Wakaba Mutsu, who was sitting in a chair in front of the desk with his legs folded, turn around and slowly walk towards him.

The cool moonlight shines through the gauze-like suspender skirt, clearly outlining the girl's slender yet curvy figure.

At the same time, the door that was originally closed was opened from the outside.

The corridor was pitch black. In the deep darkness, Ritsu Naruse saw Hachiman Kairin and Sankaku Hatsuka, who were also wearing "combat uniforms", emerge from it.

Similar things have happened countless times before. As the "pressure reducer" of [Ave Mujica], Ritsu Naruse knows very well what he will face next.

They do not have the iron will like Xiangzi, so he can only use this method to help them relieve stress in the most harmless way.

Whenever he thought of the girl who picked him up that day and who was like an angel in his world, Ritsu Narose's heart was filled with determination.

This was a necessary sacrifice in order to prevent the great work she had created from falling apart from within.

Soon, panting was heard in the dim room.
