Capítulo 100: Chapter 99: "After Party part 1"
…
Ai: "Oh! That's right, I saw the sisters in the crowd. Why don't we invite them too? It's more fun with more people!" said the girl, very excited about her idea.
Tadano: "Why not? Go find them with your sister, Yamai," the young man said with a kind smile towards the girl.
Ai: "Yes! I'll be right back! Come on, Yamai-nee, it's time to bring the sisters!" said the little one, pointing forward like a commander leading her troops.
Yamai smiled helplessly and, after sharing a quick look with Tadano, accompanied her.
The bond between them was deep enough to convey their intentions with a glance.
The message was, "Protect her from the misfits."
Agari, behind the young man, moved somewhat nervously.
Ichigo, on the other hand, couldn't stand it and stepped forward.
Ichigo: "Aniki! What you're doing is very dangerous! Ai-chan just made her debut, and the popularity and attention on her are at their peak. The entire crowd here could pounce on her, and it could end in tragedy!" shouted the blond with anger and concern at the young man's carefree actions.
Miyako wanted to calm the blond down, but seeing the young man unmoved, she stopped.
With a carefree smile, the young man took out a pair of candy lollipops from his pocket.
He took one and offered the other to the green-haired girl, who took it timidly.
This irritated the blond even more, but before he could say anything, the young man spoke.
Tadano: "The girls she'll bring aren't simple at all. A couple of them could be fresh blood for the next generation of idols after Ai, not to mention they are also very suitable for the Hololive Initiative, both as idols and staff…" said the young man with a serious expression towards the blond.
Ichigo: "E-Even if that's true, sending her alone with that girl is…" he wanted to continue, but was interrupted.
Tadano: "Besides! The one I sent her with is more than enough to handle ordinary people. Do you think I would send my golden goose into a den of hyenas without any defense?" the young man asked mockingly.
Ichigo: "You're talking about that girl with the brown hair? Can she really protect her?" he asked doubtfully.
Tadano: "Don't you know it's rude to answer a question with another question?" said the young man with a mocking look.
Ichigo: "You…"
Tadano: "That brown-haired girl, as you call her, is enough to take down a group of trained guards by herself, not to mention ordinary people…" said the young man confidently.
Ichigo: "You're joking, right?"
The young man didn't respond and just waited in silence.
Not to mention a group of guards, Tadano himself wasn't sure if he could defeat Yamai if she went all out, not to mention her absurd growth ability. Her own ability, [Psychotic Rage], could make her equal to or even surpass him in stats at this point.
She would be a perfect bodyguard for that clumsy little star.
…
*On Yamai's side*
The crowd was surprised.
The idol in everyone's mind was approaching them. Many wanted to run towards her immediately, but before they got close enough, a young brown-haired girl stood in front of Ai, blocking their path, with an intimidating look on her face.
There were some brave ones who still tried to sneak in.
Poor them; they were thrown into the air by the girl's quick movements.
The crowd didn't know when the young girl moved. One moment she was in front of the little idol, and the next second her fist was in front of their faces.
With a cold tone, the young girl spoke.
Yamai: "Anyone else wants to interrupt us? If there are any brave ones who want to try, you're welcome… I'LL KNOCK YOUR TEETH OUT UNTIL YOU CAN ONLY WHIMPER LIKE A PIG!" she roared the last part like a wild tigress.
The crowd trembled in fear and quickly made way.
As for the poor fools lying on the ground groaning in pain, no one cared about them. Are you kidding? Who wanted to anger this tigress sister present here? No thanks, they valued their lives.
The girls continued walking with the crowd making way for them.
Ai, behind Yamai, apologized to the people.
Ai: "Don't blame Yamai-nee; she just wants to protect me… forgive her for my sake, okay?" she said with a cute smile on her face.
This warmed the people's hearts, and they quickly nodded.
Without a doubt, this little star had already completely captivated them.
When they found who they were looking for, Ai quickly spoke.
Ai: "Shouko-nee, Kaede-nee, Nene-nee, oh! Nakanaka-san," said the young girl to the group of girls who were preparing to leave.
Kaede: "Oh, Ai-chan… what are you doing here? I thought you had left with Hitohito-kun," she asked.
Ai: "I wanted to invite you all to join the After Party!" she said with a smile on her face.
Shouko: "Are you sure it's okay?" she asked, somewhat doubtful.
Ai: "Yes! Tadano-nii gave me permission!" she said with a proud expression.
Nene: "Haha… alright, little one, we'll go with you. By the way, my parents are home, so I don't have to worry about my little bratty brothers," said the young girl while ruffling Ai's hair.
To which Ai purred happily.
Nakanaka: "… is it okay if I go too?" she asked, somewhat doubtful.
Ai: "Oh! That's right, you don't know yet… Uhmm, what should I do…" said the young girl, conflicted.
Yamai: "Don't worry, I've already informed him. You can bring her, he'll take care of it," said the brunette reassuringly.
Hearing this, Ai jumped happily and brought the group of girls with her.
The crowd was very surprised.
The idol they cherished so much had come for a group of friends to celebrate.
Many exclaimed with envy, others lamented not being chosen.
But a knowledgeable group exclaimed in astonishment.
Man 1: "Wait! Isn't that Otori Kaede! The heir of the Otori group!" exclaimed the man.
Man 2: "Now that you mention it, it's true… I saw her on TV a few days ago when the CEO of the group introduced her."
Woman 1: "Wait, I think I know that tigress sister. If my memory serves me right, she should be the daughter of the president of Ren Real Estate. I remember seeing her with the president and his wife in a newspaper photo!" said the woman, covering her mouth in surprise.
The eyes of the other members of the crowd sparkled.
Anyone would like to know that their idol was powerful and influential.
And from what they heard and saw, this little rising idol had an unlimited future ahead, accompanied by these heirs of commercial giants. Not to mention the enormous Otori Group with claws in all sectors; just speaking of Ren Real Estate, which is widely known and influential in the regional scene. Only with the latter does she have a very strong sponsor.
While the crowd marveled at Ai's connections, wondering how she got involved with them, Ai had already returned with the group.
When she arrived in front of Tadano, he asked Ai.
Tadano: "So, was there any problem?"
Ai shook her head and, with an excited smile, explained what happened.
Ai: "You don't know, Tadano-nii. Yamai-nee looked so cool, you should have seen her, it was *Boom*!… and then *Bam*!" said little Ai, making exaggerated gestures and giving little jumps, very excited, her eyes shining with fascination.
Yamai, beside her, covered her face, embarrassed, but under her hands covering her blushing face, a happy smile only widened with every word Ai said.
Beside him, Tadano rested his arm on Ichigo's shoulder and said confidently.
Tadano: "See? My little Ai is close to the daughter of the president of Ren Real Estate and friends with the heir of the Otori group. It doesn't matter if she doesn't get their support; just showing her relationship with them to the public is more than enough…"
The blond was speechless. After recovering a bit, he added.
Ichigo: "Then the quiet beauty and that strange girl with the eyepatch…" he said, pointing to Shouko and Nakanaka.
Tadano: "Oh! Shouko has potential to be part of the first Hololive generation, and as for Nakanaka, her knowledge in technology and video games makes her ideal for our staff…" the young man responded.
Ichigo nodded.
Tadano: "And about my charming Nene, she would be good both as staff and as a member. Don't you think, Nene?" he said, looking behind him.
Ichigo realized that at some point, the girl named Nene had sneaked behind them.
Nene: "I guess this is the end of my eavesdropping…" she said playfully.
Tadano smiled and reached out to catch the girl.
Nene didn't resist, and the next second she was leaning against the young man.
Tadano: "It's not good to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, you know?" he said while playing with the girl's hair.
Nene rolled her eyes and bit the hand that played with her hair.
Tadano: "Do all of you have a strange taste for biting me?" said the young man helplessly.
Nene: "You know well enough ∼ besides, who told you to play with my hair…" she said, somewhat annoyed at the end.
Tadano: "So, what do you think?" he asked.
Nene: "Uhmm, although I'm good at relating to others, I can't handle too many at once, so for now, I could help as part of the staff. Is that okay with you?" she asked.
Tadano: "Whatever makes you happy… now decide what you want to eat tonight, my treat." he said with a smile.
Nene: "Oh! Are you already collecting royalties from the manga?" she asked, somewhat surprised.
Tadano: "Yes, and I also have the earnings from this presentation, so you can ask for whatever you want ∼" the young man said with a smile.
Nene smiled happily and, after giving him a kiss on the cheek, ran to join the group of girls.
Tadano smiled and turned to see Ichigo, who had a gloomy expression.
Tadano: "Oh? What's wrong?" he asked, somewhat confused.
Ichigo: "Was it necessary to distribute so much dog food…" he said, somewhat annoyed.
Before Tadano could ask what he meant, the man walked away and approached Miyako to finish the remaining company matters.
