Ch. 51 Ep. 1: The Circle of Fun Grows!

The Nijigasaki girls have gotten μ's and Aqours into playing MMORPGs. Tonight, a large group of them will band together and set off on an epic quest.

Player

Oh, it's almost time to play the game. I've gotta log in…

Player

I wonder if everyone else is already on?

[Fade in/out.]

Player

Hello.

Ayumu

Hello!

Kasumi

Hi!

Honoka

Let's have fun tonight.

Nozomi

Thanks for the invite!

Setsuna

Okay, everybody's here. I'm so happy to be able to play with all of you.

Rin

Same here! Thanks so much for introducing me to such an awesome game!

Hanayo

It took me a while to get used to the controls, but I'm finally able to move around the way I want to.

Mari

We formed an Aqours team to go adventuring! Last time, we finally got our hands on a Justice Blade.

Rina

Whoa, that's a really rare item.

Chika

Yeah, we had to work hard to get it! There's no guarantee that it'll drop even if you slay that monster. And the monster itself doesn't show up often…

You

Ahhh, it was brutal. But that feeling when we got the item made it all worth it!

Riko

I did a victory pose in front of my computer.

Karin

I'm so jealous. We still haven't been able to get one.

Mia

Quests would be a whole lot easier if we did though, so I hope we can get one soon.

Yoshiko

All right then, do you wanna grind for Justice Blades tonight?

Player

Really? Can we?

Honoka

We haven't gotten that far yet, so it would be super helpful to have more experienced players along for the journey.

Yoshiko

Mwa ha ha… The night is my ally. Allow me, the great Yohane, to guide you.

Hanayo

Thank you, Yoshiko!

Yoshiko

It's YOHANE!

[Fade in/out.]

Yoshiko

Aww! Come on!

Yoshiko

I really wanted all of us to get one!

Yoshiko

*Gasp* Maybe it's because…of my bad luck…

Nozomi

Hey, that's why they call them rare items. If they were easy to get, they'd call them common.

Kasumi

But, this is an experience we can learn from! The more practice we get, the less likely we'll be to panic when it's time to throw down!

Rin

Yeah, Kasumin, that's a great point!

Ayumu

Thanks for showing us the way, Yoshiko.

Yoshiko

Happy to do it anytime. You can count on me!

Riko

*Giggle* We're lucky to have such a dependable party leader.

You

You said it. Always willing to fight hard for our sake.

Yoshiko

Y-Yohane wasn't really trying to carry you all…

Chika

You're the best, Yoshiko.

Yoshiko

I told you, it's Yohane! And don't mistake my intentions. A fallen angel must take proper care of her minions, especially her little demons.

Karin

*Giggle* Well then, we'll continue to be in your care, oh great and powerful Yohane.

Yoshiko

Is messing with me the game now?!

Mari

Of course not. We truly feel like we can depend on you. Right, everyone?

Rina

That's right. Your play style is so skillful and sharp, Yoshiko. You're the perfect role model.

Yoshiko

…All right, that's fine then.

Yoshiko

But one thing, Rina. It's Yohane.

[Fade in/out.]

Rin

Hey, hey, what was that thing Ai's trying to make? That whatchamacallit… A, uh…

Hanayo

The metaverse?

Rin

That's it!

Rin

The metaverse is a world kinda like this game, right?

Rina

Yup. But it's too complicated to build a whole world right away, so apparently she's starting with a world like a school.

Honoka

A school?

Rina

Yeah. It's a place you can visit any time no matter where you are, and somebody will always be there. A world where everyone's always together, young and healthy!

Chika

Wait, if it's like a school… Then I wonder if there are like, classes and stuff…

Kasumi

Don't worry, Chika. Classes in the Ai-verse are all Kasumin introducing affordable cosmetics and cute accessories. You'll love it.

Chika

Oh, thank goodness!

Karin

*Chuckle* Chika, you're so silly. You're worried about the same thing Kasumi was.

Kasumi

Ahh! Don't tell her!

Rin

Actually, I was worried about that too. What a relief!

Rin

If Kasumin gets to be a teacher, can I be one too? I wanna teach a dance class!

You

Oh, I'd definitely sign up for that class!

Setsuna

She even wants to make it so you can put on a live show with the entire school as a stage. That's something I'm very eager to try!

Riko

It might be fun to stage a live show that doubles as a school festival.

Setsuna

Ooh, good idea! A festival!

Honoka

Ahh! That reminds me! Sorry to change the subject, but we're gonna be hosting a really big festival.

Honoka

μ's was asked to sing too. You all should come and check us out!

Player

Singing at a festival? That's so cool! I'll definitely be there!

Mari

We wanna go too!

Nozomi

Okay, I'll message you the details later.

Player

Thank you! I can't wait!
