[TSSIM] Chapter 286: Chika Dance?
🕑 Added 2023-10-13 21:21:34 +0000 UTCSince Homura had already self-studied all of his high school curriculum and had the skills to impart, so teaching others was no problem for him.
However, just to be on the safe side, they decided to study together.
Later on, Honoka and Nico experienced a remarkable improvement in their grades. Due to their weak foundations, the improvement was most noticeable in their case.
Once this little supplementary study session was over, Honoka looked at Homura with an expression as if she were looking at a god.
"Lord God! (Kami-sama!)"
'Seriously?' Homura had a wry smile. "Weren't you just calling me an esper before? Have you already changed my species so quickly?"
Honoka vigorously shook her head.
"How can I describe Homura-kun's greatness as an esper? That's just not enough—"
Umi quickly covered her mouth, not wanting to listen to her over-the-top praise.
"You're so eager to praise Homura-kun just because you want him to tutor you again in the future, right?" Umi quipped, rolling her eyes.
"But... Homura-kun is indeed really amazing." Nozomi chuckled and shook her head. "He has no problems with even the third-year curriculum. Does he even need to go to school anymore?"
"You can't say that. Being a student is a part of life. Why give up on the experience? Once you do, you'll never get to feel it again..." Homura disagreed with her words.
Having experienced a student's life more than most people, he spoke from the heart.
"That's true... You only get one chance in a lifetime, so you should savor it." Eli nodded.
After some small talk, they decided to see the public reaction to chapter four of 'Love Live!'.
While the girls gathered around Hanayo, Homura checked his phone.
...
[Comment 1: Anyone done with chapter four? Let's chat about it.]
[Comment 2: Why the rush? I just gotta read five more pages.]
[Comment 3: Multitasking, reading, and chatting at the same time, that's a talent!]
[Comment 4: Totally satisfied, like always. Minamiya-sensei's stuff always gets me.]
[Comment 5: Plot's interesting, but cramming in three new members in one chapter? Feels kinda rushed, doesn't it?]
[Comment 6: Nah, you're overthinking. Muse has all six members now, so it's cool. Maybe next chapter we'll get the last three.]
...
Seeing the comments, Homura couldn't help but smile secretly.
These people were overthinking it. After all, the next three chapters would each add only one member. He was even afraid they might get impatient.
"The feedback is really positive!" Honoka's eyes lit up.
At times like this, she felt a surreal sense of not being accustomed to the sudden fame.
"But it seems like 'Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss' is getting even more attention..." Maki commented, twirling a strand of hair. "Many people who don't know us are aware of that song."
Upon hearing that, everyone gave Homura a somewhat helpless look.
"Isn't that further raising your popularity? Plus, with 'Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss' being so addictive and spreading like wildfire, you can be known as the origin of a million addictions!" Homura retorted.
"..."
"What on earth is the origin of a million addictions?" Eli couldn't help but be speechless.
Homura thought for a moment before answering. "How about the ancestor of a million addictions?"
All the girls rolled their eyes in unison.
Was that really important?
"Just kidding." Homura laughed. "But you have to admit, that song is spreading fast and without a doubt, addicting."
Upon further thought, the girls couldn't help but agree with him.
"By the way, Homura-kun, did you know that Chika-chan also danced 'Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss'?" Honoka suddenly spoke up.
"..."
Homura fell silent and looked stunned.
What did he just hear? Chika danced 'Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss'?
"Did I mishear?" Homura looked skeptical, then asked again. "Did you mean that Chika? Fujiwara Chika? It's not some other Chika, is it?"
Seeing his somewhat foolish reaction, Umi had an exasperated expression and spoke up.
"Yes! It's the Chika you're thinking of!"
"..."
A mysterious silence followed.
"Why didn't I know about this?!" Homura exclaimed in shock. "I haven't heard a word about it!"
"It was just a few days ago..." Kotori asked curiously, "Didn't Chika-chan tell you?"
"No..." Homura said dejectedly. "Did she feel guilty or something? Last time, she played a prank on me and then called you, right?"
It was truly shocking for him.
After all, this 'Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss' was danced by Chika.
He really wanted to see it, even though it wasn't as good as the famous and authentic 'Chika Dance' that appeared in the anime ending.
In the next moment, Maki quietly handed over her phone to Homura, who instinctively accepted it.
On the phone's screen, a video was playing.
It was a girl wearing Meruru's mask who was dressed casually, but judging from the body shape, it was definitely Chika! After all, her chest was at a brutal level!
Homura understood why she wore a mask. Chika was, after all, the daughter of a well-known family, so she had to keep her identity a secret.
Satisfied with what he saw, Homura handed the phone back to Maki.
He had no intention of reading the comments since they would mostly be something like, "Why isn't she showing her face? She has a great body!"
That much was totally predictable!
However, he had to admit that the original 'Chika Dance' suited Chika best! He would send her the song one day. Lyrics were less important since Chika could freestyle rap instantly.
"Yosh, today's trip is done and it's time for me to go," Homura said to the nine who were looking at him. "We'll meet again on Wednesday, so all of you must take care of yourselves. Don't overdo it, understand?"
"…" Honoka remained silent. 'Is this directed at me?!'
"You're leaving already, nyaa?" Rin said reluctantly.
She was truly attached to Haru, and it had been a rare occasion to see her in person. Now they had to separate again.
"Yeah, but you'll have plenty of chances to see Haru again in the future. No need to be that sad."
"Alright..." Rin nodded, reluctantly agreeing.
Meanwhile, the others said their goodbyes to him one by one, without trying to keep him. After all, they would be meeting frequently in the near future.
After Homura left with Haru, Nico remarked.
"Shouldn't we frame the poster? I don't want it to be damaged."
Nico's thoughts were now entirely on the poster that Homura had just drawn.
"We could, but when exactly?" Eli frowned.
"Now? The sooner we finish, the sooner I can relax." Nico looked distressed. "I'm afraid it might affect my performance otherwise."
"Yeah, I understand how Nico-chan feels. I can't seem to calm my heart..." Hanayo nodded in agreement.
"Fufufu, Homura-kun is really like to cause trouble." Nozomi laughed. "A mere drawing is affecting two of our members."
Her words sounded odd somehow.
"Anyway, since it might affect your performance as you said, it's best to resolve it quickly." Umi suggested.
"Then let me take you to my dad's acquaintance." Maki once again demonstrated the Nishikino family's vast connections.
