章 134: Promotion Plan
'Antagonist? Are you overthinking it? In the future, it will be all about you and your lively performances!' Homura retorted in his mind.
"Ayase-senpai, please touch your own conscience and tell me, if I didn't exist from the beginning, are you sure you wouldn't do and act the same as in the manga?" Homura said with certainty.
"Eli-chi would definitely do it, right?" Although it was a question, the certainty in Nozomi's words was evident!
Eli: "..."
"Nozomi!" Eli exclaimed in frustration to Nozomi. "Whose side are you on?!"
"Me? I'm definitely on the righteous side." Nozomi answered playfully.
'So... I'm really the antagonist huh?' Eli rolled her eyes fiercely.
"I always felt like the vice president is the real antagonist..." Maki murmured quietly.
"Hmm?" With a 'kind' smile, Nozomi turned her head to look at Maki. "Nishikino-san, what did you just say?"
"Nothing! I didn't say anything at all!" Maki answered nervously.
Homura broke into a sweat. This was really an intense will to survive!
"But I didn't expect us to make an appearance too..." The trio supporters, Hideko, Fumiko, and Mika expressed their amazement.
Homura laughed. "Of course you had to make an appearance. Without your support, Muse wouldn't have made it this far."
"That's right! Hideko, Fumiko, and Mika! It's so great to have you all!" Honoka grabbed their hands, her face filled with joy.
"Oh, by the way!" Homura turned to Ayano. "Did you record it?"
Ayano made an OK gesture. "Of course!"
He got a bit too carried away earlier. If it weren't for Ayano, he might have actually forgotten to record the scene.
"Homura-kun, what did you record? Is it our performance?" Kotori's eyes gradually lit up.
"Yeah!" Then he looked at someone. "A certain stubborn girl should also record it, right?"
Eli: "..."
"My recording angles are different from yours, Ayase-senpai, I'll send it to you later. Can you edit it and send it to me later?"
Eli: "..."
'How did you know that I... I did indeed record it...' Eli grumbled and admitted to herself in her mind. She then answered begrudgingly, "...Okay!"
Wasn't she forced to agree? She had been dragged onto this pirate ship and had no choice but to agree, right? Definitely not because of her own free will!
Homura nodded, then looked at Ayano again. "Ayano, when do you think I should upload it?"
"For promotion, right?" Ayano thought seriously for a moment and gave her opinion. "In theory, anytime before the manga's official release is fine."
"But... I think it's better to wait until after your signing event is over." She added.
Ayano purely considered the ways that could maximize his profits because he was currently popular. After the signing event, when the hype subsided, the new manga would become another fuse for the new hype!
Homura rubbed his chin and asked, "On May 1st?"
"Sure!" As long as it wasn't released in the next two days, Ayano had no objections.
"Great, it's decided!" Homura looked at the group of girls. "The first day of the Golden Week will be the release announcement for your manga."
"Yay~! That's great!"
They were all excited!
Even the few girls who hadn't joined Muse yet had smiles on their faces. Among them, Hanayo was the most delighted.
"Oh, Ayano, I haven't seen the recording you made. Let me see it first."
"Huh?!" Ayano was slightly surprised and replied somewhat unnaturally, "Didn't you watch it live? Why do you want to see the recording?"
Hmm? Suspicious...
"Are you hiding something from me?" Homura stared at her skeptically.
"No, not at all," Ayano turned her head slightly, "What could I possibly hide from you?"
"You say you're not, but ever since I mentioned wanting to watch the recording, your behavior has been strange..." Homura fixed his gaze on her. "Could it be that you didn't record it?"
"How could I make such a mistake?!" Ayano refuted without hesitation. It seemed that the issue wasn't in that aspect...
The conversation between the two also attracted the attention of everyone present. Homura reached out his hand and said, "Show it to me."
"...Okay, but let's make it clear that you can't get angry after watching it." Indeed, there was a problem!
Homura snatched it away immediately, while watching, he said, "I'll watch it first, and whether I get angry or not, we'll see..."
Others gathered around as well, and Ayano broke out in a cold sweat, hoping that he wouldn't take it too seriously! It wasn't intentional...
At the beginning of the video, everything seemed normal, but after half a minute, the camera occasionally turned to... Homura!
Everyone, including Homura himself, watched as the Homura in the video occasionally made movements, swaying with the rhythm, and even wiggling his buttocks...
"Pfft~" Several people couldn't hold back their laughter because sometimes his dance moves were even the same as Honoka and her group...
Well... Homura, which appeared full of energy and a bit playful, it was no wonder they couldn't help but laugh!
Nozomi covered her mouth. "I didn't expect Homura-kun to have talent in dancing."
Well! With strong control over his body, that was as expected.
"Those who didn't know would have thought he was the lead dancer down there." Eli's eye twitched from time to time when said this.
Homura didn't feel embarrassed at all, rather, he thought it was quite normal! Besides, any sense of shame had long been thrown out the window with the forbidden magic spell taught by Kotori, and he had no idea where it had gone!
At this moment, he was contemplating some things.
"Hehe~" Ayano approached with a wry smile, "Homura, isn't it a bit inappropriate to upload this video? It seems to affect your image..."
Kotori and the others also felt a bit worried. They felt somewhat guilty for letting his image be tarnished.
"How about..." Kotori spoke up, wanting him to give up on this video. If not, couldn't they rely on Eli's editing skills?
Homura suddenly looked up and turned to Eli, saying, "Senpai, when you edit it, make my appearances in the video fewer, and focus more on the three of them."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but just fewer appearances? Why not remove them altogether?
It seemed like Homura saw through their thoughts, "Don't remove them all. I'll release the video first, which will make people curious and puzzled. (Where did Minamiya-sensei go to watch the concert, and why did he shamelessly dance along?) This way, it will arouse everyone's curiosity to the fullest. And when the discussion heats up, I'll release news about the manga."
Silence fell upon the group. Everyone was a bit surprised that in the short time it took to watch a video, a promotional plan had already been devised on his head.
"But will people know that the person in the video is Minamiya-sensei?" Hanayo asked weakly.
"No problem!" Homura nodded, pointing to the video. "Didn't I keep turning and looking back? Someone will definitely notice, and once someone does, everyone will know."
"Besides, I have a signing event tomorrow and my face will be revealed anyway, so even if it's not an official public appearance, there's no need to worry about not being recognized."
The girls were all impressed. In just a short period of time, a rather good publicity plan had been born!
Truly... abnormal.
