Love Fest!

It didn't give him details but it probably had to do with his feelings or based on the current circ.u.mstances.

"Eh?, that's it, well I am already helping and the terms weren't just like that. I guess with my gathering of attention. After all, becoming a manager, I like the idea and I like school idols as well."

"And ... the reward 'Remote viewing'?! this should be a type of skill beyond the world tier, I don't know but I can slightly understand what it can do. It should be good!" Hiroto felt excited as he looked at the quest.

Honoka and co. needed members since they want to expand their live concert and to proceed the creation of the school idol club was a must.

"I really want to see her in those outfits, he-he." For him, seeing her in the cute maid outfit wasn't enough, he wants to see her in all suits!. (AN: Lol :3)

He opened his refrigerator and saw a bunch of goods on the trays, from the instant food packages and the leftovers from the party they had.

"Ah, I have a few of these, maybe I should give some to Kirisu-sensei, I saw her eating noodles before, this should be better than noodles." He preheated one and gathered a few before putting it in a bag.

Hiroto went outside the room, he was thinking about Kirisu since he's worried about her diet lately because he could see her eating noodles everyday and even buying packs of it at the convenience store.

'She doesn't know how to cook?, well I'm the same, but she should at least care for her health. Eating noodles everyday is bad, she could just buy a ready made food and preheat it.''

Meanwhile he was going upstairs and saw Kirisu gone out the door, wearing her usual highschool tracksuit that perfectly fits her.

"Ah! Kirisu-sensei, good timing." Hiroto waves at her.

Kirisu saw Hiroto approaching, she said impassively. "What is it?" she asked.

"Are you going to the convenience store again?."

Kirisu confirmed with a nod.

"You don't have to go for today. I brought some food, we had a party a while ago and there is still a lot of food left behind so I thought of giving out some.." Hiroto raised his hand to hand over the plastic bag that had some food.

"Negative, you don't have to." Kirisu said with a slightly louder voice.

"But sensei recently you're just eating instant noodles right? I saw you sometimes eating and also buying noodles and I am a bit worried." Hiroto was perturbed of Kirisu's physical health if it continues so he was kinda want to help her out.

"B-but..."

"Please accept it!, you must eat healthy food once in a while, Kirisu-sensei." Hiroto insisted as he raised the food to Kirisu.

Kirisu wanted to refuse but seeing Hiroto keeping insisting at the same time showing a slightly worried look, she's got slightly embarrassed.

'What am I doing, Hiroto was just worried about me, making a student worry, hah...'. She accepted his intentions.

"I owe you one again Hiroto-kun." Kirisu said gratefully though it didn't show in her face.

"No, no. it's okay besides I can't eat it all by myself before it goes bad." Hiroto gave a hearty laugh.

"Sensei, I'm going back now." Hiroto said before he waved at her and went downstairs.

"Thank you, Hiroto-kun." Kirisu said and went back to her room as well.

'... Is Hiroto-kun always this kind to others? No wonder many girls are attached to him.' Kirisu thought and sighed as she remembered the commotion last day with so many cries of girls in his house. Well, it wasn't a cry of ecchi stuff but cry agony over something. They had a celebration party after all.

Kirisu walked into the living room as she waved carefully so she wouldn't trip down through the messy floor. She felt a box that was already hot and ready to be eaten so she put the other ones to her refrigerator leaving out one. She sat on the floor in front of the mini table. She opened the food and her eyes sparkled after seeing the variety it had.

"Guuuu." the sound of her stomach grumbling. She felt a bit hungrier because of the smell emitted by the still hot food.

She rose from her seat and got a bowl to put the food, she didn't like eating on a cardboard box with the exception of eating noodles.

She clasped her hand, "Thanks for the food."

She wanted to eat the karaage first, so she picked it up and put it in her mouth before chewing it. "Mmmm! Delicious" Kirisu thought.

She emptied it out after a few minutes, it was really delicious as she ate with gusto.

She clasped her hand again, "Gochisousama."

"Homemade food is this delicious, rather than eating some instant noodles I should try to learn how to cook..." Kirisu mumbled as she thought of learning how to cook.

'Then maybe if I became good at it, then..' Kirisu immediately shook her head.

'It's just part of thanks and nothing else!'

At Minami's residence, Kotori approached her mother who was cooking at the dining area.

"Okaa-san, I have something to ask." Kotori said while looking at her mother.

"Hmm? What's wrong?." Sora Minami looked at her daughter with a smile.

"Have you seen our live concert?" Kotori asked while being a bit nervous.

"I have seen it, you three performed really well! you three prepared really well!!" Sora said with a tone of happiness.

"Really?, then how was my performance?." Kotori asked curiously and she had a smile on her face.

"Of course, you performed really well my cute daughter, especially making that costumes that looked really cute overall it's a success and was very praiseworthy!" Sora smiled as she said while preparing their dinner.

"Ehh? Really?? Yay!" Kotori jumps in excitement before asking her.

"But can it really help the school from closing?" Kotori asked with a bit of uncertainty in her voice.

"School Idol's depends on their popularity, so I can't be sure of yet but your group performance was really good and it made the audience really hyped as well" Sora said to cheer her up.

"You're right! but if we continue and become more popular, then the school would be really saved!" Kotori said while pumping her fist up.

"Yeah, I don't really like my school to be closed down, so good luck I'll support your group! Sora said as she placed the food at the table.

"Ah! Let me help prepare Okaa-san." Kotori said as she gathered the plates and put the dishes on the table.

They sat together face to face and ate the food, Kotori asked. "Nee, Okaa-san, do you have some suggestions about our venture?" Kotori asked while eating her food and exclaimed 'delicious!'.

"Let's see, I think there is none for now" Sora said while smiling gently.

"But I think Honoka said we will be planning to recruit members." Kotori said thinking of their plans.

"Who do you think is a great candidate for muse members?" Sora asked with a curious expression.

"Maki-chan would be great." Kotori looked up and tried to reminisce about Maki's enchanting voice.

"Ah, Shio's daughter, I think she's great." Sora ate her food after replying.

"You should persuade Hiroto to do some performance too, he can do it by himself, he's really great." Sora said as she munched her food while she said nonchalantly.

'That boy, huh.., I saw his streams last night and I can't believe how he had become so popular.'

"What's up mother do you know Hiroto-kun?." Kotori curiously asked.

"Well, he was a special entree at the school, all male students had their own ways but his is a bit different."

"Huh?! why.." Kotori showed an amusing face.

"The reason why the school would be able to continue for a few more years was because of his parents..if not then the school would have already closed earlier."

"Eh?!, his parents were big shots?!, that's amazing." Kotori felt awed hearing Hiroto's parents.

"His father was a bit special and I don't know as well but I heard he had a big company on the other side of the world. Moreover, his mother was a great travelling piano master that achieved many awards."

'They talked to the ministry and they accepted it readily! Can you believe that story, actually I still can't believe it.'

Ever since School Idols got popular, Otonokizaka Academy had been a downfall through the years. The decline of the enrolling student had made the decision of the ministry to close the school. Meanwhile, the school didn't have any attractions, the ex All Female school was just an average academy compared to the luxurious UTX academy, so everyone considered it as their third option. They couldn't be compared to the high rise and popular ones and lastly they don't have school idols!

'They were able to extend the school situation but the laws cannot be escaped hah..'

She was really thankful that her daughter and her friends were delving into the school idols. It's a plausible answer for their problems. The only thing is the popularity. If they get successful then that would be the very best conclusion.

"..."

"Just do you're best at everything and don't worry, you said that Hiroto was backing you up right? just so you know he's a really talented guy.." Shio praised Hiroto in her heart.

'Mama, had a high regard for him?, I guess since he's a really kind and cool guy.' Kotori felt her cheeks heating up.

"Eh?!, actually, his help had made everything a success and he helped a lot during the time we were in dire straits." Kotori smiled.

"Hmmm?, are you interested in him?"

"Th-that's.." Kotori had a blush but she was looking a bit downcast.

'My daughter might have something to that boy, hays that's, it's bad to fall in love with talented and handsome guys since always everyone already had someone they loved.'

"Well, I want to see your live concert again." Sora smiled while she interrupted her sad expression.

"Ahh! let's go watch it now on my laptop, I'll commentate what I feel during the performance." Kotori felt excited as she urged her mother.

"Ok, sure wait after I finish cleaning this up."

"Hai!!" Kotori walked to her room.

'She's really easy to change mood..'

Eli was sitting in her room with eyebrows wrinkled. She was conflicted seeing the live concert of the three. She watched the live show when she was at the broadcasting room and remembered Hiroto's words "I think this is the best start they can get as an aspiring idol group. I don't think that they will be dissatisfied and will easily give up even if the audiences are only 1-10. Isn't it because they still were not that popular and because they are still new. They are just going to perform their first live performance right now you know? Have you even thought about that, well you haven't really approved and given them a chance."

Hiroto's words echoed in her mind 'If that's really the case, then...' she looked at the live concert she recorded and she was watching it earlier.

[Hey, Hey, Hey Start Dash!]

Eli looked at the girls smiling while dancing and singing. They had smiles on their faces and she felt like they were enjoying it, not just because of its popularity but because they really like performing on stage and having fun with each other and maybe even if they don't gather fans their happy faces would stay the same.

"If their school idol group becomes really popular...it's not something easily succedable.." Eli decided as she opened the browser and uploaded it to IdolTube.

"Then." Eli looked at the upload bar that reached 100%.

"If so, then this will be one of the main contributors that could prevent the school from closing down."

"Onee-chan." a knock was heard from the door, it was her little sister Arisa's voice.

"What is it Arisa?." Eli raised from her seat and she approached the door and opened it.

"I heard that Otonokizaka Gakuen had a live concert of a new school idol group!." Arisa said excitedly.

"Onee-chan!, you recorded the live concert right?" Arisa said with expectant expressions that look like puppy eyes.

"Yes, I did. Come in, I'll show you. " Eli invited her inside the room to watch it together. Arisa got more excited. Eli played the video so they could watch it and after 5 minutes the video ended abruptly as the audience clapped really hard as shown in the video.

"How is it? Arisa? Is it good?" Eli asked her opinion.

"Un! It's really good, the song is so lovely and I felt some kind emotions to their song unlike the other idols, they prepared really well, and their dress is good too!. " Arisa said while she replayed the song as she hummed with the tune.

Eli didn't say anything and silently listened to Arisa's opinion. She patted Arisa's head while Arisa looked at her confused. "You really like school idols."
