My fiancée Yukino

Just as Nangong Nayue said yesterday, the contract is very generous. In addition to a signing fee, the profit sharing is also very good. For newcomers like them, it is the best they can get.

As they grow and gain more fame, the contract can be revised to improve their compensation.

Upon seeing the contents of the contract, both Goto and his wife stared in astonishment.

"Honey, is this true?"

"It's true, our family has made something of itself!"

Meanwhile, the youngest daughter of the Goto family, Goto Ichiri's younger sister, Niri, was sitting on Luo Bai's lap. The little girl couldn't understand the contract, so she simply ignored it and happily ate the snacks prepared for her, while whispering, "Brother, will my sister become a big star in the future?"

Patting the little girl's head, Luo Bai said with a smile, "Not yet. Your sister isn't famous yet. They'll have to wait until their songs are released and more people listen to them before they can become big stars. It will take some time."

Ai Hoshino, who was standing nearby, said, "Even so, they're already amazing. They're sure to be very famous in the future."

The little girl believed what the big star Hoshino Ai said and stared at her older sister with wide eyes.

However, judging from her appearance, she still seems unable to associate her sister with the words "big star".

The parents of the Kita family and the Yamada family are quite similar, and I didn't expect the contract to be so good.

But after seeing the distinctly different female boss, Nanami Nagatsuki, and Hoshino Ai chatting relaxedly beside her, she suddenly realized that nothing of it mattered.

My daughter shouldn't be bullied in a company like this.

After a brief discussion, the Band of Bonds successfully signed a contract.

Ijichi Hoshika also became the manager of the band Link, but she still needs some time for training.

After the signing was completed, Nangong Nayue smiled.

He looked at the four members of the band and said, "Welcome to the company. There's no rush in training you. Now, take your families on a tour of the company. Xiao Ai, could you please show them around?"

"No problem, leave it to me!"

Hoshino Ai stood up happily and led everyone out of the meeting room.

Looking at Luo Bai and Shi Yu who were still there, Nangong Nayue asked, "What about you two? Do you have any plans for today?"

Luo Bai shook his head: "I don't have anything to do. I mainly came to see them sign the contract today. Or is there something you need my help with that month?"

"There's no need for help or anything like that. Tokyo is relatively stable, and we have more members here than in Chiba. We just have fewer top-tier combatants, but with me here, that's enough."

Nangong Nayue elegantly took a sip of black tea and said, "There haven't been any major events around the world recently that require our intervention. However, there was one incident before, which was the monster that appeared in the African rainforest. Do you remember it?"

"Of course, I was also shocked when I heard about this. It's the MUTO, the giant beast from the Godzilla world, right? What, have they already found the coordinates of that world?"

“Yes, we found it, but not completely.” Nangong Nayue nodded. “The analysts at headquarters found it twice before, but the coordinates were lost due to the huge energy interference. That world is also quite special; it’s not a world that can be easily located, just like the Toriko world.”

Luo Bai suddenly realized, "It seems to be due to the energy system. The world of Toriko is quite outrageous, but compared to that, Godzilla and the like are easier to deal with, but we still have to keep a close eye on them."

Human technology in Godzilla's world isn't particularly advanced; it's about the same as here. However, there's a unique group of creatures there.

That was a giant monster.

Now that one of those ancient behemoths has ended up in this world, it seems that their full appearance is not far off.

Luo Bai isn't worried about monsters like MUTO alone; what he fears is the appearance of a top-tier monster like Ghidorah, which could cause enormous harm if not dealt with promptly.

Looking at Nangong Nayue, Luo Bai asked, "So, after locating the Godzilla world, what are your plans?"

Shaking her head, Nangong Nayue said, "The strategy remains the same as before. Unless it involves the destruction of the world, we will not interfere with other worlds. Once the location is determined, we will observe it closely in secret to ensure that those monsters cannot come to our side. Even if they do come, we can take precautions in advance and deal with them immediately. Originally, the higher-ups intended to tell you these things personally, but considering your young age and dislike of arguing with them, they've delegated the task to me."

"Hmm... I see, that makes sense."

Stretching, Luo Bai said with a smile, "Godzilla, King Ghidorah, Kong, there are quite a few interesting monsters."

Volume 1: Chapter 728 Arduous Training (2/2)

The monster issue isn't urgent. Headquarters personnel are keeping an eye on it, so we can put it aside for now. Luo Bai will only be deployed when there's a real emergency.

With Luo Bai's current strength, aside from the dragon girls Thor and Lucoa who are not on the official list, he should be considered one of the strongest fighters in the Guardian Organization, and he is still growing.

So unless it's something very important, or it falls directly on Luo Bai's doorstep, he doesn't really need to take action.

The world is so big, and the Guardians have had many outstanding members over the years, which is enough to handle most things.

Furthermore, each region's branch manager is a powerful individual with various abilities.

After briefly chatting with Nangong Nayue about the special events that had recently occurred in various regions, Luo Bai took Shiyu to find Hoshino Ai and the others.

Several families were touring the company; it was their first time visiting a talent agency, and they were quite interested in everything around them.

Meanwhile, the company staff gradually learned about the band's signing with the company and began to speculate about when the band would officially debut.

After touring the company in the morning, except for Yamada Ryo's parents who had to rush back to take care of things at the hospital, the parents of the Goto and Kito families stayed behind. They all had lunch together and didn't go back until the afternoon.

The four members of the band Bond stayed at the company in the afternoon to practice their three songs before recording the official release version.

"Eh? What is this?"

Looking at the guitar placed in front of him, Xiao Gudu stared blankly at Hoshino Ai.

And it wasn't just Xiao Gudu; the others were the same, each with a brand-new set of musical instruments laid out in front of them.

Hoshino Ai said with a smile, "After all, you're a signed band now. Besides the signing fee, we can't let you keep using the old instruments. The equipment needs to be upgraded, right? Especially for Kotori and Nijika, your guitars and drums are pretty old, aren't they?"

Little Lonely nodded: "Yes, my guitar is one my dad used to use, he lent it to me. But can I really use it?"

“Of course,” Hoshino Ai said confidently. “Our company collaborates with several musical instrument brands, and we can get our hands on the latest instruments from Yamaha as soon as they're released. It seems our company doesn't have any signed bands yet; we mainly have singers, actors, and models. You guys are the first band we sign, so we definitely need to give you the best treatment and nurture you properly. So, instruments are a minor issue. Once you gain fame, we can get these brands to make you some custom-made instruments—no problem!”

Compared to Xiao Gudu's hesitation, the other three didn't have as many thoughts and happily accepted their new instruments.

Kita Ikuyo hugged her new guitar and said happily, "This is great! This is my second guitar!"

Yamada Ryo's face was also filled with undisguised joy as he held Bess and examined it carefully.

Hongxia, needless to say, had already run around her new drum set several times, making her older sister Xingge shake her head in disbelief.

After a while, Little Lonely finally calmed down and happily hugged his new guitar.

The four-member band then began their practice for the day.

After getting their new instruments, all four of them were very excited. Even Xiao Gudu, who usually kept his head down during performances, looked much more cheerful now.

After playing "Guitar and Loneliness and the Blue Planet," the four looked at each other, and finally Hongxia happily said, "It feels great! You're in even better shape than before!"

Luo Bai sat to the side and said with satisfaction, "Mindset has a great impact on your performance. When you're in a good mood, you can perform exceptionally well. That's a good thing, but it's also a concern. If you're affected by external factors, your performance might suffer. You need to train hard on this aspect in the future."

The girls nodded in unison and then began practicing the second song.

Luo Bai didn't do anything else; he stayed here with Shi Yu and Hoshino Ai, listening to the girls practice.

It wasn't until 4 PM that everyone went back to Chiba together, while Shiho went home, as she had to continue going to school the next day.

The four members of the band did not choose to tell anyone about the signing; only their families knew.

After signing the contract, the lives of the four will become even busier.

Classes are held as usual from Monday to Friday, but after school on Friday afternoons, I have to rush to Tokyo to attend training sessions at the company. These training sessions cover vocal music and stage performance.

In particular, Xiao Gudu and Liang's posture during the performance was a key focus of the instructors.

During the first week of study, Luo Bai didn't go to watch, but Hoshino Ai did. After she came back, she showed Luo Bai a bunch of photos and videos she had taken.

Looking at the miserable expressions of Kita, Kotori, and Ryo in the photos, Luo Bai couldn't help but laugh out loud: "They're really having a tough time. It seems like it will be a while before they officially debut on stage."

Hoshino Ai nodded with a smile: "That's right. I was originally thinking of having them perform a song during the concert in July, but now it seems we'll have to see how well they learn. Besides, their first performance on stage is a large-scale concert, which might not be a good thing for them. If the performance doesn't go well, it could affect their future development."

After watching a few videos, Luo Bai returned the phone to Hoshino Ai.

"No pain, no gain; this is an inevitable path. Once you've decided to go on, you shouldn't give up easily. Besides, even Little Lonely persevered, so I don't think anyone else has a reason to give up."

“That’s true. Little Loneliness is surprisingly strong. Although she looked like she was about to die several times, she persevered.” Hoshino Ai said with great surprise, “I originally thought she would be the first to give up!”

Yukino, who was watching from the other side, said, "That girl, although she's socially awkward, instinctively yearns for sunshine deep down. Otherwise, she wouldn't have learned guitar and agreed to join a band. If she has this idea, it's only a matter of time before she changes. But right now, these are all small-scale efforts. Her first stage performance is the most crucial. Besides TV programs, have you considered having them perform offline first?"

“Yes, there is,” Hoshino Ai said. “At the end of June, Hoshika-nee plans to have them perform at STARRY first. By then, the band’s songs should have already been released.”

STARRY? That's alright. It's a relatively familiar environment, so I can go to other livehouses to perform a few more shows.

Volume 1: Chapter 729 Visiting the Set (1/2)

While Luo Bai and Hoshino Ai were chatting about company matters, Shi Yu, who was sitting on a beanbag chair, had put her laptop aside and was chatting with Eriri on her phone.

I don't know what she's talking about with Eriri, she won't let anyone see, she's being very secretive.

After chatting for a few minutes, seeing that Eriri had been dragged off to play video games by Mordred, Shiyu looked at Luo Bai and said, "Luo-kun, are you going to Tokyo with me tomorrow? Let's check on Mai's filming progress. Her scenes are almost finished, and she can wrap up filming in about ten days!"

“Sure, let’s go check it out. She’s filming these past few days and hasn’t come back yet.” Luo Bai readily agreed, finalized the schedule for Sunday, and then looked at the others.

"Everyone, do you want to go?"

Xia Shi and Tina both raised their hands.

"We want to go!"

"I haven't seen Mai-neechan for several days!"

Yukino said, "I'm not going. I'll stay home and read some books tomorrow. I went to the base today, and I haven't done my homework yet."

"Okay, then let's go together, Shiyu, Xia Shi, and Tina."

Then, Luo Bai patted Last Order's head and looked at her and Misaka 9982, asking, "What about you guys? Do you have any plans for tomorrow?"

Last Order raised her hand and said, "I've made plans with the other Misakas to go to the base tomorrow. They've all recovered, and we're discussing what we want to learn! It's just that there are too many Misakas, so it's not really suitable for them to go to school."

Luo Bai said helplessly, "There's nothing we can do about it. But if they want to experience school life, we can organize some classes for them to study together within the base. There aren't many people, less than two classes. You can discuss this with Mr. Zhen Tu later. I don't think he will refuse."

After making the arrangements, Luo Bai took the cookies that Kocho Shinobu had just baked and a bottle of juice, and went upstairs to give them to Mordred.

Mordred was live streaming at the moment, so Luo Bai didn't go in immediately after coming up. Instead, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Mordred, who was playing Apex Legends with Eriri and Touka Kirishima, heard the knock on the door and sensed Luo Bai outside. She then spoke into the microphone, "Wait a minute, I'm going to get some food."

After taking off the headphones, I happily ran over to open the door.

"Oh! It's freshly baked?"

Luo Bai smiled and nodded, handing the food to Mordred. "Here you go. Go eat, but don't stay up too late tonight, okay?"

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll be at Diamond rank soon, then I'll switch games."

Mordred tiptoed and kissed Luo Bai on the cheek before returning to the computer.

Mordred put down the cookies, put on her headphones, and said, "Nobody's coming, right?"

"No one, no one."

Eriri, who had just finished looking at the things, asked curiously, "What did you take to eat?"

"Ren's cookies, freshly baked."

"Sigh... I want to eat it too. I wish I had come here to play today."

Touka Kirishima also said, "We're currently researching new sweets at our shop. If you'd like, I can send you some to try."

"Sure! But no need to see me off, I'll come over to visit in a couple of days!"

The conversation between the three was heard by the viewers in Mordred's live stream, who also saw the cookies Mordred was eating, which were clearly made by professionals.

After glancing at the audience comments on another screen, Mordred ate another cookie and said smugly, "Looks good, right? But you guys won't get any. Okay, that's all for now, someone's coming, let's fight!"

Mordred's game time is expected to continue for a long time.

........

On Sunday morning, after making preparations, Luo Bai drove Shi Yu, Xia Shi, and Tina to Tokyo.

The band "Bond," who had practiced at the company yesterday, Saturday, didn't go back to Chiba that night but stayed in Tokyo. They stayed at Luo Bai's villa in Tokyo, and Mai was also there last night.

Hongxia also prepared breakfast today as a way of thanking them for lending her the house to stay temporarily.

After breakfast, the band continued their training at the company, while Mai drove to the film set to begin her work for the day.

Before her scenes even began, Luo Bai arrived.

"Mai, we're here~~"

"Mai-neechan!" x2

Mai was overjoyed to see the four arrive. After saying something to the director, she ran over.
