Love? Please allow me to simulate it first!

[On the night before departure, Yamada Ryo sent a message saying "Count me in..."]

[So, a total of ten people formed a team here, and followed Kotobuki Tsumugi towards her family's smallest villa. ]

[On the way, Ijichi Kouka and Akiyama Mio were talking enthusiastically about rehearsal, while Tianzhong Ritsu occasionally made trouble on the side, but after being hit hard by Akiyama Mio, she pouted and went to play with Hirasawa Yui, Goto Ichiri and Kita Ikuyo.]

[Eri pesters you to tell her the sequel to the previous story. Ichichi Hoshige seems very interested, so she pretends to play with her phone but actually eavesdrops on the side.]

[Yamada Ryo was asking Kotobuki Tsumugi to borrow money, but was stopped by Ichichi Nijigaoka. ]

[After arriving at the villa, you changed your clothes at the speed of light and ran towards the beach and the sea under the leadership of Ritsu Tainaka, Yui Hirasawa and Ikuyo Kita. Mio Akiyama and Nijika Ichichi wanted to stop you. Their purpose of coming here was to practice, but their attempts to stop you were doomed to fail. Nijika Ichichi chose to join directly if she couldn't win.]

[Akiyama Mio stood alone in the practice room, then chose to join in while crying, while the members of the light music club laughed secretly.]

[At the beach, you discovered important information. The greatest member of the light music club is Akiyama Mio. The ending band is dominated by Goto Ichiri, who is even better than Akiyama Mio. The least interesting ones are Tainaka Ritsu and Kita Ikuyo. You think they can only be compared with Goto Jiri.]

[You guys had a crazy day at the beach, and the ones who had the most fun were Akiyama Mio and Goto Jiri. ]

[In the evening, at the strong request of Akiyama Mio, you started rehearsing. At the end, the band and the light music section performed in turn, while Ijichi Hoshika and Goto Jiri scored and gave their opinions.]

[Since you had to participate in both teams' performances, you soon became exhausted and started to complain on the ground. You were followed by Ritsu Tainaka and Yui Hirasawa, but you were soon pulled up by Mio Akiyama and Nijichi Nikka.]

[The several days of training finally ended with a fireworks display. Under the gorgeous fireworks, they were extremely dazzling in your eyes.

[You found the piano in the villa, stroked the shiny piano body, put your hands on the keys, and played a song "SUMMER". The song was filled with the tranquility in your heart at the moment and the excitement for the future. ]

[Everyone in the villa is attracted by your piano music. They stand outside the door, as if they are afraid of disturbing your performance.]

[Listening to your performance, the light music section was completely immersed in it, while the ending band realized that, without realizing it, you had already walked ahead of them, even further than you imagined.]

【Your summer is almost over. 】

[You didn’t put “SUMMER” online, but instead treated it as a memory that belonged exclusively to you and others who were there at the time.]

[The light music section is the same as always, but the closing band seems to be stimulated by your last performance of the summer.]

[Ichichi Hoshige's prediction has become a reality, but the result of this stimulation doesn't seem to be bad. You seem to have become a target for the band to end, a figure that everyone wants to follow.]

[Kita Ikuyo no longer avoids your guitar and starts to ask you for advice. Yamada Ryo, who was the band's most skilled player, seems to have increased his practice in private, as does Ijichi Kouka.]

[To your surprise, Goto Ichiri actually came to you to help you overcome the problem of not being able to perform at your original level in front of people. You decided to take her to perform on the street. Although Goto Ichiri was very horrified by this proposal, she finally agreed.]

[Your suggestion is undoubtedly effective. Goto Ichiri's performance in front of the audience has improved dramatically. However, there is still a key problem for her, which is that she has never been able to fully cooperate with other members of the band. She has made great progress in this regard during the training camp, but it is obviously not enough.]

[But this can only be achieved through constant practice with the band members. There is no better way. ]

[Goto Ichiri and Kita Ikuyo signed up for a rock performance at the school festival. You thought this was a good opportunity to advertise your band, so you both started practicing hard.]

[You provided the band with an original song, "The Old Man and the Sea", to be performed at the school festival. This song was well received by all the members, and Yamada Ryo would come to you from time to time to discuss composition issues.]

[Since the light music club also had to perform at the school festival, the performance times of both sides conflicted. You had no choice but to apologize to the light music club members. You couldn't participate in Sakuragaoka's school festival performance. The members of the light music club expressed their understanding. Fortunately, even without you, the performance of the light music club was very successful, especially Akiyama Mio, who became famous for some reason and even had her own fan club. ]

[The band's performance at the Shuka Academy Festival was surprisingly well received, but this was probably largely due to Kita Ikuyo's popularity. Goto Ichiri had a problem with her guitar when she needed to perform a solo in the second performance, but she picked up Hiroi Kikuri's glass bottle and showed off her slide skills, and finally got through the crisis.]

[After the second song, Goto Ichiri was required to speak, but she didn't know what she was thinking. She just dived off the stage without saying anything. The people in the audience cooperated very well and made way for her. Goto Ichiri fell directly onto the floor. Goto Ichiri fell into a coma and was taken to the health room by Goto Naoki and Goto Jiri who were watching her daughter's performance.]

[You had no choice but to put down the keyboard and take on the role of lead guitarist. ]

【Goto Ichiri's popularity in school has increased a lot because of this school festival performance. He has evolved from "the one whose name is unknown" to "the one who dives on the stage". The diving process seems to have been filmed and posted online, and the number of views and likes seems to be quite large. Goto Ichiri has made up his mind to drop out of high school. 】

Chapter 36: The Four-Handed Devil

[Your schedule hasn't changed much in the new semester, but the band is definitely climbing up step by step. Under the organization of Ichichi Kouka, you have also begun to rely on street performances to attract fans. The strength of your band is now very good among your peers. Kita Ikuyo's guitar is already qualified if she just cooperates with others, and her singing skills have also improved a lot. Her voice has a wide range, which is undoubtedly a good thing for your band.]

[Yamada Ryo and Ichichi Nikka have also made great progress. Yamada Ryo's playing is much sharper than before, and it seems that he is about to reach the threshold of professional level. Ichichi Nikka seems to have supplemented a lot of music theory knowledge during this period. With her hard practice every day, she is not a very skilled drummer, but she has begun to show her creativity.]

[Needless to say, you and Goto Ichiri, your keyboard skills have reached a level that will not be underestimated even in a professional band. Your presence undoubtedly provides a rich sound for the ending band, which makes your performance more dynamic.]

[Goto Ichiri's progress can only be described as getting better and better. Although she cannot fully display her full level on the stage, she is no longer like before, often making mistakes because of not being able to match the drum beats. Moreover, as long as she is given the opportunity to perform solo, she can always raise the atmosphere of the scene to a higher level by looking directly at the audience.]

[Your freshman year of high school is coming to an end soon. After the band ends, you can barely be considered a little famous in Shimokitazawa. At least you no longer need to raise money to hold live performances.]

[You guys in the light music department have been promoted to the second year. In the recruiting performance, because Hirasawa Yui wanted to be the lead singer, you took on the position of lead guitarist, and Hirasawa Yui took on the task of lead vocals and rhythm guitar. The response to your performance was very good. Your solo part and Hirasawa Yui's MC both heated up the atmosphere to a great extent. It's just that Hirasawa Yui talked too much, making the performance like a crosstalk, although the audience's response was good. ]

【Because the performance was good, all the members of the light music club were looking forward to many junior girls joining the club, but unfortunately, this did not happen. After waiting for two days without anyone signing up, Tianzhong Ritsu teamed up with Hirasawa Yui to use various methods to trick the junior girls into joining the club, but unfortunately, the result was just to scare them away. And it is conceivable that the reputation of the light music club's weirdos will also spread among the freshmen. 】

[You couldn't stand it any longer and broke into teacher Sawako Yamanaka's music classroom. While the freshmen and Sawako Yamanaka were confused, you sat down in front of the piano and performed a super-accelerated version of "Flight of the Bumblebee" with your skilled "nimble hands". Because your hand speed was so amazing, everyone present seemed to have grown four arms. Many people suspected that there was something wrong with their eyes and rubbed their eyes desperately. The song ended quickly, and you panted and told the freshmen present that everyone in the light music department was at least at this level, so please sign up.]

[Sawako Yamanaka was shocked by your piano skills, but she still scolded you for skipping classes and disturbing others in class, and kicked you out of the music classroom. Because of this incident, you became quite famous among the freshmen, and were given the shameful title of "the four-handed devil". It is worth mentioning that in the second year, you and Mio Akiyama were assigned to the same class, and then all the members of the class were assigned to the same class, so you asked Mio Akiyama to cover for you to skip classes, but unfortunately it failed. You were punished to submit a 1,000-word self-review the next day, and you copied one from Wikipedia and submitted it.]

[Originally, because of your outstanding performance, you boasted to the light music club that there would definitely be new members joining the club soon, so all the members waited for another day with great anticipation, but unfortunately, there was still no result, and you were severely disliked by the other members. ]

[After you finish your snacks and tea, you cough and leave, but when you open the door, you see a small figure with twin ponytails on her head at the door. You invite her into the office with shining eyes.]

[This little figure is called Nakano Azusa. She was warmly received by all the members of the light music club. You left first because you had to attend the rehearsal of the final band.]

[After you left, Nakano Azusa seemed to relax. She told the members of the light music club that she was concerned about the light music club because of your guitar solo in the performance and the amazing performance in the music classroom. However, since you said that the light music club is at least at your level, the first-year members, including her, were afraid to come and participate.]

[After understanding the reason, the light music club forbids you from entering the club room for a week. You can only turn your appetite into anger and practice hard and hold live performances under the stars.]

[Even though the light music club has just added Nakano Azusa, Hirasawa Yui is still the worst at guitar. However, now that Hirasawa Yui can directly ask Nakano Azusa, a senior who has been practicing since childhood, about her guitar problems, you can relax more in the light music club.]

[In the Stars, you were preparing to perform as usual but were blocked by an unexpected person. It was a woman dressed in strange clothes and called herself Poison Darkness, a 14-year-old music writer (actually more than 20 years old). She said she wanted to visit your band, but a few words revealed that she was just trying to take advantage of Goto Ichiri's stage diving. After fooling her, she seemed to stay and listen to your live performance.]

[She seemed to be totally indifferent to your live performance at first, but after listening to it, she seemed to be a little shocked. This was not because she thought your performance was so outstanding, but because she seemed to see that you and Goto Ichiri are the current popular music bloggers, "Keyboard Warrior" and "Guitar Hero". ]

[She found you and asked you about your identities in a tentative tone, but after you both denied it at the speed of light, she determined that you were the legendary "Headless Couple". When she said this title, Goto Ichiri directly crawled headfirst into the combustible trash can. This trash can is now her exclusive nest and is no longer used for its original purpose.]

[You pinched the music writer's shoulders with trembling hands, and told her to shut up with a confused look in your eyes. Even you felt that this title was too shameful. It was the same as the "four-handed devil" that was rumored in the school. It was a taboo existence that you could not face. However, Goto Ichiri seemed to think that this title was quite cool, but now that his identity had been revealed, he was trapped in the nest.]

Chapter 37 Merry Christmas

[The store manager Ijichi Hoshika and the PA used adult "gentle" methods to drive the music writer out of "Fanxing", but her last words that you and Goto Ichiri should not stay in a band as playful as the Ending Band also pierced the hearts of the other people like a thorn.]

[Although you and Goto Ichiri both said that you didn't intentionally hide it from them, you just didn't find any opportunity to express it, and they also said that they didn't care at all, but who can say for sure what they really think. ]

[You all went home with your own thoughts. Since you had nothing to do at home, you simply went to Goto Ichiri's house to play. They had a lot of movies praising youth that you left there to help Goto Ichiri overcome his psychological barriers. But every time Goto Ichiri was shown a movie, he seemed to be in shock. Plus, you thought those movies were boring, so you sealed them away.]

[But I heard that Goto Jiri sometimes finds her and watches her. According to her own words, it is to prevent her from becoming like her sister. ]

[You discussed with Goto Ichiri and finally decided to let the band participate in an event called "Undetermined Riot Music Festival". The contestants of this event are all young people under the age of 19. It seems that many bands debuted because of their excellent performance in this event. ]

[The next day, you found that all the band members agreed with your idea. They all took out the flyers of "To Be Confirmed Riot Music Festival". Even the aloof Yamada Ryo saw that you were in a harmonious atmosphere because you thought of the same thing and couldn't help but take out the flyer hidden in his pocket.]

[Since your band currently has only four original songs, including the "The Old Man and the Sea" you gave me before, Ichichi Kouka, as the leader, wants to make a new song for shooting MV and making a mini album, and this task has been handed over to the recently popular original song star "Keyboard Man", that is, you. ]

[So after a week of deep thought, you decided to use "Crossing Field" as the new song to end the band. However, it was the theme song of Sword Art Online, a phenomenal animation that dominated an era when he was a child in his previous life. Since he had only watched the first part, he had a particularly deep impression of this song.]

[Since all the members have been looking at you with anticipation recently, waiting for your new song, you are in a good mood and decided to go big. ]

[You decided to come up with two songs at once. The second song is still the theme song of the anime, called "SAVIOR OF SONG". It is the OP of the somewhat hardcore anime "Arpeggio of Blue Steel". You haven't watched the anime but you have a special liking for the song.]

[The excellence of these two songs is beyond doubt, and you think it is very suitable for young people's rock music. As you imagined, "Crossing Field" and "SAVIOR OF SONG" were praised by all members of the band.]

【However, since these two songs are very challenging for the lead singer's singing skills, Kita Ikuyo is under a lot of pressure, but she is not the only one who is under pressure. Ichichi Hijiri, who knows that she is not strong enough, and Goto Ichiri, who still cannot completely match the rhythm with other members, also want to improve themselves. Only you and Yamada Ryo seem to be doing your own thing on the surface, but judging from Yamada Ryo's recent progress, she seems to have been secretly practicing by herself. 】

[All the band members except you were scared at once, so you ran to the light music club for shelter. But what you didn't expect was that the new member Nakano Azusa saw you and asked you to organize everyone in the light music club to practice as if she had seen a savior. After hearing this, your eyes became very sharp, and you said solemnly to this schoolmate who seemed to be on the wrong path: "This is the light music club! How can you practice here!"]

[Except for the still reserved Akiyama Mio, all the members of the light music club expressed their approval of your words. Ah, we have to count the club advisor Yamanaka Sawako, who has been sitting on the side since I don't know when. At this time, the luster of hope in Nakano Azusa's eyes gradually dimmed. ]

[Am I the weird one? — Nakano Azusa]

[The band successfully passed the internal review of the undetermined Riot Music Festival. Although this is a reasonable result considering your strength, it still makes you a little happy. However, you still need to pass the online voting stage. You must be ranked in the top 30 of the 300 teams in Tokyo to be selected for the final round of on-site review.]

[You all tried your best to get votes. It is said that Yamada Ryo's parents even wanted to stop all hospital activities to support their daughter's voting. They even wanted to bring employees with them. They seemed to be considering borrowing an election car to play the loud speaker of the closing band's voting. However, the terrified Yamada Ryo desperately refused. In the end, they just played the music of the closing band in the hospital lounge. Although playing rock music in the hospital lounge is still not good, this is the most compromised method that Yamada Ryo can get.]

[Ichichi Hongxia is posting flyers everywhere, and Ichichi Xingge is secretly canvassing votes for the band that has ended by telling those bands that they can write off their debts as long as they give them the voting quota, but she didn't let anyone notice except Ms. PA.]

[Kita Ikuyo seemed to have made the atmosphere of the entire school as exciting as a sports festival, and even alarmed the principal to hold a commendation meeting for them. Goto Ichiri felt like he was dying during those few days.]

[Since your home is very close, you accidentally ran into Aunt Goto Michiyo, who was dressed as a JK and forced others to support the band. You poked your eyes out and left as if you didn't see anything. But from then on, you felt that Pochi's mother seemed to be more rock than her, and you were a little worried about whether Goto Jiri could grow up healthily. ]

[You didn't lag behind and directly occupied the radio room of Sakuragaoka School. Every day at noon, you played music and canvassed for votes for the band. As for why you weren't caught? Because you heard from somewhere that Sakuragaoka loved playing table tennis, so after winning a hundred games in a row, you made an agreement with him that if he didn't lose for a day, he could do whatever he wanted in the school without violating the moral bottom line.]

"What the hell are these guys? I'm the most normal after all. By the way, the principal of Sakuragaoka loves playing table tennis. Hehehe~ I got some pretty good information."

[In addition, you also filmed the band's first MV, and it didn't cost a penny, because two fans attracted by Goto Ichiri, Xiao A and Xiao B, who had supported the band since the end of the first LIVE, were actually students of the photography department of the Fine Arts University, and the photography equipment was professional equipment from "Fanxing". ]

[Although the band MV was a very simple one due to lack of funds, you were still very satisfied. ]

[You guys also started to perform regularly on the street to attract fans. Yamada Ryo also made a cardboard box that said "Please donate some money" and designed a mascot named "Kojie Le" with a strange setting that only those who gave a certain amount of money would get food. It seems that sometimes people actually put some money into the cardboard box made by Yamada Ryo. She even stopped playing and stretched her head to see how much money was put in when others put money in, and she always wanted to put the money in her pocket. ]

[The results of the Central Division voting are out, and your ranking is just stuck at the 30th place mark. You don't know whether to be happy or nervous. All the members who finished the band during that period looked dazed and sleep deprived.]

[It seems that there are several articles on a certain music website that are looking forward to you, which also greatly helped your vote. 】

[The final result is out, you have advanced to the final review with the 23rd place. ]

[The final selection requires live performances. Among the thirty bands selected in Tokyo, only two bands will be able to go to the stage of the "Undetermined Riot Music Festival". The most anticipated ones are the girl band called "SIDEROS" and the electronic rock band called "Beast Ria". They are both young bands with super high popularity in Tokyo. To be frank, everyone has decided that these two teams will advance. ]

【In this final trial, all the members of the band burst out with their strongest strength. Everyone's performance was the best so far. Goto Ichiri even showed a technical level far beyond her peers. You saw everything and were extremely proud. You enjoyed standing at the end of the stage and watching all the growth of these girls. You don't have dazzling dreams like Goto Ichiri and Ijichi Nijika, nor do you have clear persistence and goals like Yamada Ryo and Kita Ikuyo. 】

[You just want to be someone they can rely on on stage, to highlight their strengths, to make up for their weaknesses, and to allow them to act unscrupulously on stage.]

[It doesn’t matter if the audience doesn’t pay attention to you. You don’t need the appreciation of strangers. As long as you can accompany them to move towards their goals, they will become more dazzling than anyone else. As for you, just being the shadow behind the band is enough.]

[After you played "SIDEROS" and "Beast Ria", you knew very well that it would be difficult for the current closing band to win. The strength of these two teams is too strong, and they are definitely the favorites to win. In addition, the ranking of your draw is also very subtle. The fifth game happened to be the time when the audience was already tired of listening to the performance. You know that you need to do something. If you do nothing, you will definitely not forgive yourself in the future. ]

[You lowered your head and devoted yourself to the performance. Your concentration was unprecedented. It was different from the simple show of skill in the music classroom before. Your ears did not miss any audio on the stage. Your brain quickly calculated all the timbres and harmonies that needed to be made up. You raised the range of the band of only five people to an incredible level. This was different from your previous rehearsals. It was completely your improvisation.]

[You felt the pain of finger cramps for the first time after obtaining the "Dexterous Hands", but your movements did not stop at all. The surge of adrenaline made it impossible for you to think about anything other than playing. If there was anything you had to say, it was the thought of sending the band to whatever stage they wanted to go to.]

[There is no doubt that the band has completed an evolution beyond everyone's imagination on this small stage that is only used for review and promotion.]

[After finishing all the performances, you are almost exhausted. Your physical strength is not very good and your vision in front of you is a little blurry. But you still try to see the scene in front of you clearly, because you feel that there is no applause or cheering around you. You are a little suspicious whether your improvisation has played a counterproductive role.]

[The spotlight on the stage makes you feel a little dazzled, and coupled with the excessive physical energy consumption, your body has a tendency to fall on the stage, but there are four figures supporting your body. You chuckle, and now you don't have to open your eyes. At this moment, you already know what is happening. The applause and cheers from the stage are like waves caused by a typhoon, constantly hitting your eardrums.]

[The judges' review is no longer needed. The deafening sound that almost blew the roof off has already proved who is the protagonist of this LIVE. ]

[You faintly heard a voice that was trying hard to hold back tears, and she said to you, "Thank you for your hard work." However, due to the noise in the venue and your dazed state, you could not tell who the owner of the voice was.]

[Tokyo group, the bands that advanced to the "Undetermined Riot Music Festival" are "SIDEROS" and "End Band". ]

【At the celebration party, after the band finished, you all seemed to be a bit overwhelmed by everyone's praise, especially you and Goto Ichiri, who were the most proud of themselves. Goto Ichiri even started talking about his experience of performing in the Tokyo Dome, which was totally non-existent.】

[Even though you were leaning back in your seat with your whole body weak, you still insisted that today's performance was just a small display of your skills and that it was easy for you. As a human being, no one takes your words seriously.]

[Since you are undoubtedly the biggest contributor today, you have the right to be forgiven no matter how you make a scene. However, when you snatched a bottle of wine from Hiroi Kikuri and drank it all in one breath before anyone could react, your memory of what happened afterwards disappeared. After that, no one dared to let you get close to alcohol again. Hiroi Kikuri was also listed as the number one dangerous person in "Fanxing", especially when you were present.]

[For the final competition, although the songs are sufficient, the band still plans to write a new song as the competition song. This time, the task of composing the music is handed back to Yamada Ryo, and the lyrics are still given to Goto Ichiri. ]

[However, Yamada Ryo's creation seems to have hit a bottleneck, and he has not come up with any new songs. In addition, all of his part-time jobs at "Fanxing" were abandoned without any notice. Because of this, the store manager Ichichi Hoshika's face looked as scary as if he was wearing a Prajna mask.]

【During this period, Kita Ikuyo has also fallen into a similar state as Goto Ichiri because she has not been able to see the person she admires, Yamada Ryo. 】

【Kita Ikuyo finally began to believe that Yamada Ryo must have a man outside and that's why he didn't show up, although everyone except her scoffed at this statement. 】

[Finally, you decided to visit Yamada Ryo at her home at Hongxia's suggestion. Before you went in, you saw Yamada Ryo lying in a sleeping bag like a large caterpillar in the yard. It was said that she was camping, and because it was too troublesome to go out, she came directly to the yard of her home.]

[When I came to Yamada Ryo's room, as expected, it was full of rock-related things. The walls of the room were covered with bass and guitars that she had used, and at first glance, they were all high-end goods. At least you deeply understood why she gradually evolved into a herbivore. ]

[Yamada Ryo, what a self-indulgent woman. ]

[You also saw a lot of scattered sheet music in her room. These are her works during this period, but she seemed to think that these would not help the band win at the "Undetermined Riot Music Festival", and they were completely incomparable to the songs you made for the band before, so she was always dissatisfied with them. You can feel how much pressure this guy, who seemed to care about nothing except music, was under at this time.]

[Yamada Ryo is unexpectedly a sensitive guy. ]

[After talking, she seemed to be afraid that the band would lose at the music festival because of her song, and it might even lead to the collapse of the band. You know about Yamada Ryo's past band, so maybe she was thinking about the past.]

【Ryo Yamada is actually a gentle guy. 】

[You and Ichichi Hongxia severely criticized this stubborn girl and told her that she was just being self-indulgent. Although you won't lose, even if you lose, it will only promote your growth. The band is no longer a small and unknown band that can't withstand a little setback.]

【Finally, under the leadership of Goto Ichiri, everyone present played the unfinished music score that Yamada Ryo had discarded.】

[Your actions didn't change Yamada Ryo's expression much, but you could feel that her whole aura was much more relaxed.]

[A few days later, the band got a new song "Melancholy Goodbye".]

[On the day of the "Undetermined Riot Music Festival", your exaggerated nervousness backstage made other bands relax a lot. It seems that as long as you see someone who is more nervous than you, you will not be so nervous anymore. ]

[What surprised you was that the captain of "SIDEROS" who was promoted to the Tokyo representative team with you, saw your appearance and used her clumsy words to encourage you, but because her encouragement was too abstract, it did not have much effect. This guy seemed to have a different type of communication barrier from Goto Ichiri, but you still learned that this girl named Otsuki Yuyuko is a friendly guy. ]

[Your performance was very successful. Although not all of you performed at a level far beyond your usual level as in the final review, it was the result of your best efforts. For you who were standing on this open-air stage with thousands of spectators for the first time, this was the best result without any regrets.]

[The final champion was "SIDEROS" from Tokyo. Although it was a pity, the band also won the third place. In this national competition, this result is definitely not bad. ]

[But after getting this result, Goto Ichiri still couldn't hold back her tears. After she said those words of unwillingness, Ijichi Nijika and Kita Ikuyo finally couldn't stop their tears either. Although Yamada Ryo didn't cry, her red eyes and tightly bitten lips showed that she was just being stubborn.]

[You looked at them like this, without saying a word of comfort. Unlike them, you were not so unwilling in your heart. You knew that this was the highest level you could achieve now, and you also knew that these girls would not stop because of such a small matter.]

[Although you didn’t win the championship, you still received an olive branch from the record company, and the band officially stepped onto the right track as a rock band.]
