"Of course, it's about working! Working!"

"After all, going to Okinawa would cost money, but you still chose to buy equipment. You must have been prepared for this long ago, right?"

Following her husband's lead, Nanaka Kotegawa, amidst Yu Miyazawa's deafening work rant, delivered a barrage of insults, instantly petrifying everyone in the room—

Yeah! Yesterday when I was shopping, I was only thinking about buying cheap things as soon as possible, and as a result I bought a lot of things that I don't really need now.

Moreover, not only were Iori and Kohei, who were already poor, but even the wealthiest Chisa had her wallet emptied by the underwater camera.

That is to say...

"us……"

"Are they all going to work?"

They exchanged a glance, and both Chisa Kotegawa and Mana Yoshihara simultaneously buried their heads in their hands and slumped down in despair.

Unlike Iori, they didn't have any plans to work part-time, and they also had a significant shortfall in pocket money, so whether they could find high-paying jobs to keep up with the training camp was a question!

"Hmm! What happened? What happened? I feel like I missed a really exciting part of the story?"

"Senior Azusa! Introduce us to part-time jobs!"

"Ah la~"

Surrounded by her junior classmates, Hamaoka Azusa pretended to consider for a moment, then readily agreed, "Working is no problem, the question is whether Chisa and Mana can accept it!"

"We can!!!"

"...What are the consequences of not having a spending plan?"

Seeing Mana crying, Miyazawa Yu took out her phone, glanced at the time, and reminded her, "Nana-chan, Azusa-senpai, we need to get ready to do our makeup too."

"Huh? They actually hired a professional makeup artist?"

"I guess so, although I should say I'm a professional in another field."

After changing out of her O-shaped apron, Miyazawa Yu put on her clothes and waved to everyone in the store, saying, "We'll be going now, you guys do your best!"

"Hiss... It's an O-shaped apron! Did anyone notice?"

"No……"

"This is completely unexpected!"

Taking a deep breath, Kitahara Iori's gaze shifted between disgust and pity, but her last remaining conscience led her to fixate on the latter.

"Not only his body, but his soul has completely taken over Grandblue?! Haji Yu, you bastard!"

Memories return to the second time I entered Grand Blue, when Yu was still an upright young man who would shed tears of blood upon seeing an O-body apron.

But now it's completely Pab-ified, which is truly regrettable!

Chapter 146 The exhibition arrived as scheduled!

"So Tachibana-sensei actually likes cosplay? What a surprise!"

"Haha, just remember to keep it a secret..."

In her apartment, Rimi Tachibana looked at the scoundrel who had tried to extort her train fare and the two beautiful women he had brought with him, and Rimi Tachibana felt an immense headache coming on.

She was incredibly resentful that an acquaintance got off at the wrong stop and bumped into her taking a revealing photoshoot!

There's nothing I can do; my interest is cosplay, which is very close to skirting the line. I should be grateful if I'm not locked up in a cage like a slave after being discovered.

but……

Looking at Miyazawa Yu and the two beautiful women she had met once before, she still couldn't accept the fact that this guy was two-timing her.

Wait a minute! Could it be that these two are like me, only they weren't chosen because I'm not pretty enough?

Staring intently at a pair of breasts twice her size, she felt a vague sense of defeat for some reason.

"Um... I think this extremely intense makeup look is right, but personally, I'd recommend a more popular character."

"Huh? Hasn't Tachibana-sensei seen 'Kyokugen no Suji'?"

"I'm sorry, I've never heard of it before. It must be a relatively unpopular comic."

"I see……"

While still marveling at the beautiful cosplay outfits on the walls of Tachibana, Miyazawa Yu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing what the other person said, since he had initially thought that Extreme Sugimoto was some kind of niche manga.

However, after yesterday's trial, he has grown! He has also gained a little understanding of the character he cosplayed, and can be considered a semi-proficient cosplayer.

"Heh, Tachibana-sensei, I think you don't understand at all!"

"Understand? Understand what?"

"Of course it's the current trend among young people! Although leather jackets are great, the teacher's market research is clearly inadequate!"

"what?"

Not wanting to be told this by an amateur who doesn't even know how to do makeup, Tachibana Rimi's competitive spirit was instantly ignited by Miyazawa Yu's contemptuous sneer.

"Don't tell me that this so-called extreme muscle is a trend, right?"

"That's right! This is a precise conclusion drawn from market research. Ms. Tachibana, would you like to give it a try? We're still missing one more concubine role!"

The truth is revealed when the true nature of the story is revealed. According to the original work, the King of Meat should have three beautiful concubines: a succubus, a demon lord, and a leather-clad fallen demon!

Because the last one was so figure-hugging, and there really weren't any girls in the Pab department who could pull it off, Miyazawa Yu casually ignored this detail.

However, now that we're aiming for a faithful recreation, we should go all the way, and besides, we have a natural tool in front of us, so why not use it!

"Never……"

With a few black lines drawn under her white eyes, Rimi Tachibana made an X with her hands to indicate her refusal.

Although this Fallen Demon in leather armor, whose main weapon is a whip, fits the borderline cosplay style, she doesn't have any plans to form a team yet!

"Really? What a pity..."

Knowing that one must reason with someone to ask for help, Miyazawa Yu shrugged and said without pressing the issue when Tachibana-sensei refused, "I was saying the organizers would buy some traffic, but Tachibana-sensei's account hasn't been active for a long time, has it?"

"Ugh!"

Even her account was exposed and followed. The thought of acquaintances seeing her cosplay made Tachibana Rimi take a step back and let out an embarrassed sound.

However, what Miyazawa Yu said was indeed true; her account's collection volume hadn't improved much recently.

If we could get a little bit of a recommendation from the official comic convention organizers...

Half an hour later, wearing a leather jacket and devil horns, Rimi Tachibana squatted in front of the comic convention venue, her eyes no longer shining.

"In the end, I couldn't resist the temptation... and I did it..."

"Um...Tachibana-sensei, are you alright?"

"If you can't stand it, you can tell us anytime. It should be better if you hide behind us."

Raising her hand to shield her eyes from the scorching sun, Hamaoka Azusa looked at the crowded people and thought Tachibana Rimi was frightened by the large number of people.

Considering that the other person was, after all, a conscript her boyfriend had recruited, she squatted down shyly and comforted him in a low voice.

"It's okay, it's just a bit too hot, wearing a leather jacket isn't very comfortable..."

With a wry smile, Rimi Tachibana looked up at Azusa Hamaoka and Nanaka Kotegawa, a look of amazement flashing in her eyes once again.

No matter how many times you've seen them, their temperament and figures are like female protagonists straight out of a comic book, radiating their unique brilliance at all times.

What's most remarkable is that she could tell that the other participants were complete outsiders to the entertainment industry. They weren't intimidated at all during their first event; their mental fortitude is incredible!

"Um, have you two ever done cosplay before? You seem to be quite comfortable with it?"

"Hmm? No."

It was strange that Tachibana Satomi asked such a question. Kotegawa Nanaka calmly smiled and said, "But these are just small-scale scenes. The Pab Club members are making a lot more noise."

"More ferocious than this scene?"

Looking at the huge crowd, Rimi Tachibana found it hard to imagine what kind of club could be more challenging than this, and it seemed that people were already gathering around before she even entered the venue!

"Oh! It's actually the Meat King and his concubine from Extreme Tendon? This is such a perfect recreation! Can I take pictures?"

"Cosplayers with this much muscle mass are rare! Please let me keep this photo!"

"And here I am! Can I pose here?"

"Of course! But you bunch of skinny brats have to abide by the rules of our muscle world! No trampling allowed! Please bring your belongings and children with you!"

Having anticipated this, Miyazawa Yu immediately revealed an arrogant smile as he looked at the crowd that had already begun to gather before even entering the venue, and his tone became extremely rude.

However, just as Tachibana Satomi frowned, thinking that cosplay should be more humble, the crowd suddenly burst into cheers.

"Even the tone of voice is so accurate!"

"Please allow me to follow you, Lord Meat King!"

"Huh? He's clearly being looked down upon, yet he's still so happy!"

Covering her mouth as she looked at the boisterous crowd, Tachibana Rimi's CPU practically burned out—

Do these guys have some kind of weird fetish? They don't complain at all even though they're being treated so roughly!

And why did they actually form such a long queue to follow Miyazawa Yu into the venue?! Aren't you even giving those three beautiful cosplayers a second glance?

"Ah~ I've been left behind..."

"There's nothing we can do, Yu is just too popular."

"No, no, no, this situation has nothing to do with popularity anymore!"

When she puts on a serious expression, even passersby are willing to follow along. The only explanation for this is that Rimi Tachibana is faithful to the original work!

Is that so-called "Extreme Tendon" really that famous among passersby? Most of the bustling crowd was actually drawn to it!

"But speaking of which, it's actually this venue."

Despite being ignored, Hamaoka Azusa had no objections as she was merely a runner-up.

More than anything else, she tugged at her tail and snuggled up to Nanaka Kotegawa, flashing a mischievous smile as she whispered, "Hey, I think the job I introduced to Chisa was here too!"

"Huh? Really?"

Slightly surprised, Nanaka Kotegawa squinted her eyes and clapped her hands happily, saying, "What a coincidence! That means we can go home together tonight! Is Chisa a guide or a volunteer?"

“Neither~”

With a teasing tone, Hamaoka Azusa scratched the back of her head and stuck out her cute little tongue, saying, "I found Chisa and Mana modeling jobs. I heard they have to wear miniskirts and hand out flyers!"

"……miniskirt?"

"miniskirt!"

Her body froze instantly, and Nanaka Kotegawa's smile took on a slightly dangerous tinge: "Is there also a strapless bra?"

"That's right, there were even strapless tops!"

"Woo..."

A phantom black flame rose behind her, and to Tachibana Rimi's astonished gaze, a telephoto camera instantly appeared in Kotegawa Nanaka's hand.

I want to go! Super Ball Lu Liu VII (II) Shrimp wants to take pictures of cute little Chisa, especially Chisa's shy expression, I really want to!!!

Ding!

Red light emanated from her eyes, and amidst her intense desire and Yu's choice, the spiritual pressure emanating from her even caused her orange hair to fly high.

"Ah ha~ It's a comic convention! Thank you for inviting us to Mr. Machio!"

Why did I suddenly want to do cosplay?

"I had no choice, the organizers invited SILVERMANGYM, so I thought I'd give it a try!"

On the other side, Sakura Hibiki and Kanade Akemi, who had just arrived at the venue, finally found Machigami Naruzo.

Before they could exchange more than a few words, Hibiki Sakura suddenly noticed that the crowd was beginning to move in large numbers, and in the receding tide, she saw a familiar figure again.

"Nana-chan? Azusa-chan? You guys are doing cosplay too..."

"Om-!"

"Eh?"

Her twin ponytails were blown high into the air by the wind pressure. Looking at the terrifying demon lord who had teleported in front of her, Hibiki Sakura's hands trembled and two tears welled up in her eyes.

What's going on? Am I already dead? And the person in front of me is actually a messenger to take my life?
