I became a girl group idol for my sister.

"senior."

"I can't speak," Nanase Touka whispered as she lay on the bed.

"what's wrong?"

"I heard that when the senior was training in the training room, his sweat soaked the surrounding walls..."

This situation arose because too much water vapor accumulated in a short period of time; this is a time-based ability!

Miyamoto muttered to himself, but said aloud, "Well, that's a bit of an exaggeration. The training intensity is about the same as our usual training intensity."

"Huh? Is it just about the same intensity as usual?"

"Maybe a little bit higher." Miyamoto thought about it carefully. After training for several hours, he did seem to be a little stronger than when he trained with Nanase Touka.

It's just about one more day of training.

Meanwhile, Nanase Touka, listening to Miyamoto Sei's words, was thinking to herself.

It seems I was overthinking it. The senior was indeed human, and it wasn't as exaggerated as they said.

……

The next morning, Miyamoto arrived at the park as usual, but just as he was about to start, he saw several people walking over, some of whom were even waving light sticks.

"Nana-chan!"

"It really is Nana-chan!"

Hearing these shouts, Miyamoto looked at the group of people walking towards him in surprise. He recognized them all, as they were almost all the people he would see at the theater.

That's the group of fans you can see at the theater in Akihabara, Tokyo!

"After you went to Nagoya, we all heard that there were idols doing street performances in Nagoya, and we thought it was you, so we all came!"

The man leading the group smiled at Miyamoto Sei, his clothes clearly a fan-made outfit with "Miyamoto Nana" written on them. The others were dressed similarly. Seeing this group, Miyamoto Sei was momentarily speechless.

Ultimately, the words came down to this sentence.

"Don't you guys have to go to work today?"

"I've taken leave!"

"That's right, I took leave!"

"I told my boss I was going to Nagoya to support my idol, and then my boss signed the papers."

Miyamoto stared at the group of guys, completely convinced they were capable of something like writing "cheering on my idol" on their leave requests.

But is it possible to approve such a reason?

"My boss said that although he understands, it's only for one day."

At this moment, other people were coming over one after another. Seeing this, Miyamoto Sei didn't say anything more, but skillfully turned on the stereo and raised his right hand.

"So, for today's first song! Give me five!"

As if by prior arrangement, the moment the music started, several fans immediately waved their light sticks in unison, their movements synchronized, and they shouted their cheers amidst the shimmering light!

"tiger! fire! cyber! fiber! diver! viber! JaJa!"

The incredibly enthusiastic atmosphere was created through the collaboration between Miyamoto and her fans. Even people who had never seen an idol perform before were drawn in, watching the live performance and feeling the high-energy aura radiating outwards.

Among the onlookers were many who had long been fans of Nana Miyamoto, and they were from Nagoya.

"Yesterday's performance was fantastic!"

"Yes, let's keep up the good work today!"

"Although you'll definitely be returning to SKR in the future, we'll still continue to support you!"

Even though it wasn't the first time he had received encouragement from fans, Miyamoto was still incredibly excited to hear these words. Clearly, he had indeed gained the support of the people of Nagoya, and he had truly established himself in this region.

This support from the locals made Miyamoto Sei increasingly confident in himself.

Indeed, as long as you work hard and truly perform for your fans, you can gain recognition even in places that don't originally belong to you!

He thought to himself silently.

Chapter Forty-Four: The Wrench of the March

Time flies, and the next day passed in no time. Miyamoto Sei's days as Center were finally over.

Matsuda Jurina received a warm welcome when she returned to the stage, and after the performance, she hugged Miyamoto Sei in front of everyone.

"I really have to thank Nana-chan this time. If it weren't for Nana-chan, this would definitely be the thing I regret the most, even though it was an unexpected accident!"

As she spoke, she conveyed these words to everyone present.

"Jurina-chan, everyone's watching..." Miyamoto pushed her slightly, but she was very close to him, and since they were on the field, it was really difficult to push her away.

This caused the people in the stadium to cheer again.

"So the two of them are that close?"

"They don't look like two teams at all!"

"Yes, it feels like we've grown up together!"

"Wait, I heard that Miyamoto Nana is known as 'Wrench' in SKR. A lot of people have ambiguous relationships with her, such as Higashi Hise Ogiko who has already graduated, as well as Sakagami Minami. Even Watanabe Hikaru has a very special relationship with her, not to mention her own unit, Stardust Girl."

"What? Could it be that these two are also related?"

"Wait, this can't be! I'm a die-hard Matsuda shipper! Jurina-chan and Rena-chan are the real couple!"

"But look at Rena's expression when she looks at them, doesn't she look happy too?"

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Under Jurina Matsuda's influence, a series of topics began to emerge wildly, then took over everyone's ears and minds.

These topics have also begun to appear on various forums, including the forum section belonging to Miyamoto Nana.

[Qi-nai-chan is truly a master at wrenching things; it feels like SKG's center is about to fall.]

[Is there going to be another member in the family?]

[This is our own group after all; don't forget even Miya has already taken on the shape of Nana-chan.]

[That's right, even enemies can't withstand Nana-chan's brilliance, let alone her own team members! SKG's Jurina is just the beginning; I'm sure there's more to come!]

[Perhaps there are others already? We just haven't seen them yet.]

[Right, some things aren't shown in front of others. For example, Hikari secretly dragged Nana to see the opera. If someone hadn't seen them, who would have known that something like that happened?]

[Let's shout it out loud: Nemen!]

Looking at his phone in his bedroom, Miyamoto Sei couldn't help but twitch at the words of these people. Couldn't these guys think about something else? Was it really that important who his partner was?

And what do you mean I'm a "wrench"? Do I look like the kind of person who tries to turn other girls gay in a girl group? I'm focused on developing my career and working hard for my fans, so how could I possibly be thinking about dating or anything like that!

Thinking this, Miyamoto suddenly remembered Sakagami Minami blushing.

Well, Senior Nan's blushing and shy appearance is quite cute, but that has nothing to do with my CP or anything like that.

After all, I'm a girl. In their eyes, I'm a girl, so there's no way I could be!

However, Miyamoto Sei, who was thinking this, did not intend to be idle. After putting his phone away, he looked at Nanase Fuyuka, who had finished resting.

Feeling Miyamoto's gaze, Nanase Touka immediately stood up and obediently walked to the side.

"Senior, shall we begin training?"

"Yes, training is about to begin." Miyamoto smiled slightly. "Don't worry, once today's training is over, you'll have mastered all the songs required for SKG's performance. All that's left is to keep practicing to become more proficient. So things will be much easier starting tomorrow."

"Really?! Things will be much easier starting tomorrow?!"

"Yes, that's right, things will be much easier starting tomorrow!"

Then, the next day came.

Nanase Touka tried her best to control her body while practicing, while also maintaining the position of holding the microphone, and she couldn't make any mistakes in the dance.

Because someone was watching her, if she made a mistake, she would have to start all over again.

There's absolutely nothing easier about this than the past few days!

Nanase Touka was on the verge of tears.

"It's definitely easier than the past few days. We have an extra half hour of rest time, which is a perk we didn't get the other day." Miyamoto said nonchalantly, "Keep up the good work. Your performance tonight will determine how long you need to practice tomorrow night."

No!!!!

Nanase Touka couldn't help but groan inwardly, but dared not say a word.

When she dragged her tired body into the bathroom, the time on the clock was indeed about twenty minutes earlier than usual. The thought that this kind of life would continue for a while longer made Nanase Touka lie down in the bathtub, her expression one of utter despair.

Outside, Miyamoto watched Nanase Touka walk in, and he watched her dance over and over again.

"Isn't that a bit too strict?"

Miyamoto muttered to himself for a moment, then shook his head, banishing any thought of sympathy from his mind.

Time is running out, and if we want to give the fans a satisfactory answer, then we must put in the effort now. He and Nanase Touka are both outsiders, and his early appearance has already served as a buffer. There won't be a big reaction when Nanase Touka appears later, but there will definitely still be some people who are dissatisfied. If we can give a good answer at this time, then these people will be more forgiving.
