Momoi Taro wants to form a "don" brother duo, but it's a music anime.

Page 20

Our general's strength is truly beyond reason!

Miao Meng gently scratched her temples, lost in thought. Should she change her original plan...? Her initial idea was to practice in this band and ride on Taro's popularity, and then use this band as a stepping stone to join a more popular band after she became a pro.

Now, having witnessed Taro's talent, Nekomu has a different idea. Given Taro's abilities, wouldn't staying in the band be a better choice?

As we all know, in this era of big bands, the four key elements for a band's success are talent, luck, looks, and numbers (popularity).

Taro's strength is undeniable, but she and Aiko are lacking in many areas. However, both she and Aiko show remarkable talent and have made significant progress. She's also heard of Hailin, a very skilled mercenary. As for Rakuna's current strength... she doesn't know much, but since Taro hasn't required her to train, she probably isn't too bad.

When it comes to luck, nobody can say for sure...

As for looks, everyone in the band is handsome or beautiful, there's no doubt about that... especially Hai Ling, whose androgynous charm is sure to attract many people.

In terms of numbers... Taro seems to have an unusually high level of popularity in other bands. It looks like I could try it out here.

"Wow, that's amazing... It feels like Taro is a whole band all by himself..." Too shocked to even call out Momo, Aine called out Taro's name directly. She paused for a moment, then thought, "Oh well, that's fine. Calling him Taro just sounds much better than calling him Momo."

But... Taro is so powerful, he still needs me. Maybe I'm... something... a crucial member of the team. Hmph, if that happens, I might have a chance to stand in the center!

Thinking this, Aine couldn't help but drift into a strange fantasy again, imagining herself shining brightly on stage—

"Hehehe..." How could one not laugh out loud at such a wonderful dream?

"Don't say such stupid things." Taro glanced at the pink-haired dog who had fallen into inexplicable depression and then suddenly started laughing. He didn't quite understand the other's thoughts, but no matter what, Taro did the same thing—speak his mind:

“One person can’t play in a band…” From Taro’s voice, Aine subtly sensed a tense atmosphere. So, what should she do?

Given Taro's personality, if I ask him, he'll probably tell me what happened. Haha, it sounds a bit arrogant of me to say I understand Taro after knowing him for less than a week. But to be honest, Taro is indeed a very easy person to understand.

But... is it really okay to touch Taro's wound like this? That's what Aine was thinking. But then she thought of her own experience... Indeed, if it's a wound, it's normal not to want anyone else to touch it.

"Taro, you just said you also did choreography, what do you mean?" she said lightly, as if her attention had noticed something she hadn't noticed before, naturally steer the conversation in that direction.

"This part still needs preparation, we'll talk about it during Sunday's practice." Taro responded as if he hadn't noticed anything amiss, then his tone changed again: "And! If you encounter any problems during practice, you can ask me now."

Without hesitation, the two girls asked Taro about all the problems they had encountered during practice. As always, after answering their questions, Taro asked them to prepare briefly and then play the musical phrases in their entirety.

First on the list is Meowmee. Meowmee's progress has slowed down a bit, but that was within Taro's expectations. Learning is something that always starts fast but gradually slows down.

Aine, however, gave Taro an unexpected surprise. Although the rhythm wasn't perfect, her playing technique was almost flawless.

"Taro, how is it!" Aine's little nose was practically pointing to the sky. If she had a tail, it would probably be wagging non-stop by now, perhaps even leaving a blurry afterimage. Unfortunately, she didn't.

"If I had to give it a score, it would be 23 points!" Taro gave his evaluation with great rigor.

"Eh~ why is it like this?" The pink-haired dog was a little disappointed and hung its head in dejection.

"Speaking of which, how's the band's account going?" Taro suddenly remembered this and asked, "Even though you've taken over managing it, I'd still like to keep an eye on the account's information."

"Ah, well, about that." Aine, who was pointing towards the guitar, put her hands behind her back, her eyes looking a little listless:

"The account has been registered, but the first message hasn't been posted yet, because I think the first message for the band's account should definitely be a group photo of everyone."

"Is that so?" Taro asked doubtfully, but nodded in agreement with Aine's idea: "Since you say so, then let's take a group photo during practice on Sunday."

"Mmm~ Miaomeng will forward the first message then~" Miaomeng waved with a smile. Since she had decided to try to develop in this band, the necessary "investment" was only right.

"Really~" Ai Yin's eyes lit up when she heard Miao Meng's words: "That's great, Miao Meng! Love! The band's account will definitely get a lot of followers."

"Aiko, don't be so reserved~ After all, we're in the same band. Isn't it only natural to help each other out~" Meow Dream's smile was very bright, as if she really cared about the band.

"If Aiko has any questions about the account at that time, feel free to ask Meow Dream~ I'll answer them for you as long as I know the answer."

Miao Meng was very gentle with Ai Yin. Although they were the same age, Ai Yin was just a little girl in Miao Meng's eyes, who was a media professional working in society.

"Mmm! I'll definitely ask Meow Dream!"

"I see. Besides these, what else needs to be done to manage the band's account?" Taro asked earnestly to Nyanmu, who had experience with Twitter and social media, since he only had a basic understanding of them. As for their operation, he had almost no ideas whatsoever.

"I see~ Meow Dream thinks Taro should follow his band's account and then send a group message with the link to his band's account..." Meow Dream gave Taro some pointers on what to do, so that Taro's friends in the band would also follow the account... Just think about how important those friends are.

Even if only a portion of it is diverted to one's own account, it's still a very good amount.

"I see, then let's do it this weekend." Taro nodded and wrote down what Nyanmu had said.

"And another thing!" Little Bao Aiyin raised her hand and said, "Let's add all the band members to a group chat, so it'll be easier to stay in touch. It'll also make it easier for everyone to strengthen their relationships privately."

"I see... In that case, I need to teach Ryuna how to use a phone and Line..." Taro thought for a moment, secretly noted down the task, and then took out his phone to create a group chat. He added Aine, Ryuna, Hailing, and Nyanmu to the group.

"Huh? Little Renai doesn't know how to use a cell phone?" Aine looked at Taro in surprise. She couldn't believe that there were modern people who didn't know how to use a cell phone.

“Rakuna has absolutely no interest in anything other than guitar and music,” Taro replied to Aine, then stood up again: “Let’s continue practicing!”

"Okay~~" x2

The two of them, without prior arrangement, returned to their positions with long, drawn-out notes and resumed their practice.

Aine has to admit that the speed at which she practices with Taro and without him is on completely different levels. Although she had asked Kasumi-senpai before, Kasumi's words were really hard to understand, increasing the learning curve. Also, it's not good to constantly bother Kasumi-senpai.

After practicing for several hours, Taro clapped his hands and announced, "Today's practice is over."

"Aine, remember to practice when you get home," Taro reminded her.

"Sigh—" Ai Yin put her hands behind her back and asked somewhat unwillingly, "So what score did I get for my guitar in the end?"

"24 points!" Taro stated his assessment without any mercy. Meow Dream, however, felt Taro was being a bit too harsh. Aside from some chords, Ai-on's playing was no longer at a beginner level. She was at least at the entry level.

"Ugh! I'm not reconciled! Even though I roughly know what will happen, I'm still not reconciled!" The pink-haired girl was furious.

"Let's go, I'll take you home." Taro didn't react to the little pink-haired girl's angry outburst and walked to the door. After the little pink-haired girl finished packing her things, she followed behind Taro.

The two of them took the tram as they had yesterday and arrived near Aine's house.

"Well then, Taro, bye-bye, see you tomorrow~" During the train ride, Aine's resentment had dissipated by more than half, and she waved goodbye to Taro.

"Okay, see you tomorrow." Taro replied casually, and only after Aine turned and walked a few steps toward her own house did he say, "Your progress is quite good, that's commendable. Keep it up tomorrow too."

Aine suddenly turned around, looking at Taro with a surprised and delighted expression. She quickly ran to Taro's side with small, quick steps, her eyes full of anticipation: "Taro! You just praised me, didn't you? You praised me, didn't you? Say it again!"

"I refuse!" Taro turned away coldly. "One compliment is enough!"

"Say it one more time! Just once!"

"I refuse!" Taro quickly left the area.

"I'll say it one more time!!"

The day passed peacefully amidst the two people's ordinary argument.

Chapter Nineteen, I understand

The next morning, Taro went to work as usual... then his attention was drawn to a LINE notification. He opened LINE and glanced at it.

It turned out that it was Chihaya Aine who sent the message, as well as unread messages on her LINE, from the group chat, from Hina, and from Nagasaki Motoyo.

Come to think of it, it seems like it's been a long time since I've received so many messages. Before, whether I was a support musician at RAS or Roselia, I always made time to meet with them. This is the first time I've joined a band group.

He clicked on each one one by one.

"Chihaya Aine: Your SNS and Twitter accounts are already set up!?"

Momoi: Wasn't this yesterday's topic?

The message was marked as read in a second, and I immediately received a reply from Aiyin.

"Chihaya Aine: I didn't reply yesterday, so I'm replying now (。 ︿ 。)"

Taro replied with an "oh," indicating he understood, and then closed Aine's chat window. Chatting with Chihaya Aine was such a waste of my youth.

Next, Taro opened Nagasaki Motoyo's chat window to see what Nagasaki Motoyo had sent him.

"Nagasaki Motoyo: Mr. Momoi, I've been busy with some other things lately, so I won't be able to attend your band's performance. But if your band is going to have its first live show, please let me know."

Taro thought for a moment and replied with an "ok". After all, whether or not the other person comes is their own choice, and all he had to do was give them a choice.

Then, in the group chat, Miaomeng and Aiyin were having a lively conversation. There seemed to be no need for me to participate. Surprisingly, Hailing and Aiyin liked sending emojis; Hailing would send panda emojis, while Aiyin mostly sent pictures of fruit and the like.

At this point, Taro's lack of response completely enraged the pink-haired dog.

"Chihaya Aine: Images" *N

...Watching it is a waste of time.

Finally, there was a message from Hina. It was a video followed by the caption: "Two thousand jump ropes done~ The feeling is amazing."

Momoi: As expected of you, let's have oden together sometime.

After a while, Hina also replied with a message.

"Japanese Cuisine: Let's set a time then! How about Sunday?"

Momoi: The band needs to rehearse on Sunday.

"Japanese Girl: Still that recording studio?"

Momoi: Hmm.

"Japanese cuisine: I'll pack some to take over later. Is the usual place okay?"

Taro replied with an "ok" and ended his conversation with Hina, then glanced at Aine's message.

"Aine: Why are you ignoring me? aieeeeeee"

Momoi: We'll discuss this again when you say something meaningful.
