Reincarnation Band Magician

Except for Su Shi and her brother, everyone else is worse than a middle school student - and Su Shi is just an average high school student.

But she may never be able to play a tune like that.

"Minami——"

"What's wrong, Xiao Mu?"

"……fine."

Keep it confidential.

Ruoye Mu returned to the underground space that did not belong to her, plucked the unique seven-string guitar, and began to climb the grid.

No matter how passionate the music was, in her ears, there was only dead silence.

There was no singing, and endless fatigue and darkness enveloped her.

Su Shi will never come back.

Xiangzi is not here either.

Everyone left and CRYCHIC was completely dead.

The puppet covered its eyes with its sleeves wearily.

"I've never felt...happy..."

……

"So happy!"

“I’m so happy!”

"We sold a lot of drinks, much more than the tickets. Everyone worked so hard!"

"I saw today's opening performance on a nearby discussion thread, and it's become quite popular..."

Celebration party.

"Can I drink?"

"My drinking capacity is average, sorry for the joke."

"Ah, Mizuho-san has always been very charming, but I didn't expect her to be so easygoing."

The adults please sit down first.

Children who don't drink sit nearby.

It is worth mentioning that the other two members of SICK HACK also came, their names are Iwashita Shima and Shimizu Elisa. The former, as a drummer, has a rock-heavy and reliable feeling.

The latter is a beauty with a childlike personality that doesn't match her figure, and her pronunciation sounds foreign.

She was very interested in Qing's ears.

"Hello, do you like the 2D world too?"

"Well..." Qing didn't want to say anything hurtful, "I have watched some anime and played some games."

"Japan is really great at this! Let me tell you, I'm from England..."

I'm entangled in a strange two-dimensional world.

No one was able to rescue him for the time being. After today's performance, Ijichi Hongka and Yamada Ryo were excited and discussed posting a recruitment notice outside STARRY.

Su Shi is taking care of Yi Li who is in a trance.

The child fainted at the live performance and was picked up by Hiroi Kikuri who was passing by. Qing confirmed that there was nothing wrong with her and she had been sleeping until now. She sent a message on her mobile phone to explain the situation and told the Goto family that she would be back a little late.

Attached are the photos and address of everyone at the celebration party.

[I'm sorry to bother you. Please come visit me someday!]

So welcoming, Uncle Goto and Auntie...

While agreeing with the British guitarist's topic, Qing observed his surroundings.

Live performances really do have a magical power. After a few hours of performance, I still want to grab people and discuss it again.

Countless topics were sparked by music.

"cheers!"

Qinggao held up the drink soaked in ice cubes, took a sip, and felt dazed.

……

Lately, my trance periods have been getting longer and longer.

During the spring break, no one contacted her. She was like a potted plant forgotten in a corner, with no one paying attention to it.

My heart is filled with despair, my eyes wandering. I am alone in this world. In this ever-fading spring, I feel only coldness every year...

The melody of "Spring Shadow" often comes to my ears.

The most recent reply on the social software was a message from Su Shi’s brother using Xiang’s account.

"Is everything alright? You looked a little down the other day."

【fine. 】

[Take care of yourself. Xiang wouldn't want his friends to get sick or hurt. Tell your family as soon as possible if you feel unwell.]

[Yes, thank you for your concern.]

It was a few days ago.

"—No, Xiao Mu, the teachers all say that your performance has been declining recently. How about you just relax at home when you're not studying?"

Minami communicated with her daughter seriously.

"Let's put the guitar and band stuff aside for now, okay?"

I was in a trance again.

Ruoye Mu looked at his mother and nodded slightly.

This was a normal thing for her, and she had agreed to such requests many times in the past.

Xiangzi also told his mother this when he was in CRYCHIC.

She can't do anything by herself.

……

When I came to my senses, I was in Shimokitazawa again.

Like an animal chasing salt and water, Ruo Yemu was now longing for something that could fill her void.

In front of the exhibition hall called STARRY, this semi-underground place is not as spacious and bright as the one RiNG often goes to. If Minami knew, she would not allow her to appear here.

However, Ruoye Mu really liked that narrow, noisy place where he could see everyone's face clearly.

She walked in again.

"Eh? I think you were there last time... Ariaki's support performance today. He plays the bass really well."

They arrived a little late and the live show had already started. Ruo Yemu nodded and paid for the ticket.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, have fun!"

It was as if his whole body was radiating the sun's radiance, just like Xiangzi at that time.

Wakaba Mutsu turned away his eyes.

The second band came on stage. Su Shi’s brother played the bassist position, which was the band’s support job.

Their performance was wonderful, but Ruo Yemu found that he still couldn't concentrate.

At this moment, she was more concerned about the conversation after she stood up.

"Liang, which of you two has better skills?"

"Of course it's me, isn't it?"

"So who is it? Stop making this joke. It's already difficult to tell you apart since you have the same name!"

"To be honest, there's still some gap between him and me, not just in terms of technique. I feel like his bass has a heavy sense of storytelling, and he's obviously a year younger than me..."

"Eh? He's younger than us? I've always treated him like a senior!"

"That might be the manager of Xingge... ahem, even if you're young, you might still be called 'brother'."

"cold!"

The two of them joked around for a while and then returned to the previous topic.

Wakaba Mu stood in the dim place, seemingly watching the performance, but actually staring at them.

The girl named Liang tapped her feet on the table. "Only people with unique personalities can do unique things, have unique experiences, write unique songs, and play unique melodies... People without unique personalities are as good as dead."

“I like his bass.”

"You're saying such outrageous things again. In life, we're all just ordinary people, right?"

"Let's just discuss this alone. I don't want to explain too much in front of Hongxia." Liang closed his eyes and listened to the song.

"For some people, a band is a job, for others it's a hobby. I'm only talking about the latter. There are many people in the world who are distinguished from others by their own selves.

"Things like music and painting, when they're hobbies, are about expressing yourself. But if you still want to be like everyone else... you know Buzz Lightyear? He's like that."

Only the Buzz Lightyear with unique personality is loved by everyone. The others, even if they are exactly the same and there are many of them, filling up the shelves, warehouses and shopping malls, are just mass-produced "Buzz Lightyear toys".

The blonde girl named Hong Xia pushed her friend's legs down, supported her face with her hands and looked over here.

"You always go on and on about this every time I bring it up. And even a weirdo like Liang would find other people weird."

Liang then lay down and stared at the stage. "Maybe Qing is even weirder than me, but we haven't seen that side yet. I can feel that he is definitely hiding something."

"Who knows? Okay! Now let's talk about our band!

"Among drummers, my level is even worse than Liang's, right? But you don't have to have good skills to play in a band. I think a band is a place where everyone grows together. If you can play music that you're satisfied with and can move people, that's great. So even beginners should consider it."

"Indeed, in terms of technique alone, our band isn't number one in the world, but in my heart, some of us are number one. If one day our band grows to the point where someone sincerely believes it's number one, that will be enough."

"No, that... after all, number one in the world is too exaggerated, right?"

"So it's number one in the Northern Hemisphere?"

"Uh……"

"At least number one in Japan, right?"

"How about starting with STARRY first?"

“No ambition.”

The fighting started again over there.

Ruoye Mu stood there and looked at them.

Individuality, shine.

These were things she never had.

It is so enviable and desirable that it makes one want to cry.

[Cool, rainbow summer...]
