Part 5

After that, I was then made to participate in a variety of club activities, including soccer and basketball, where I was forced to play games similar to baseball before, but

Wherever I kick it, he stops it!

Oh, come on, can you shoot it from that distance and score?

What kind of power does he have to make a volleyball explode?

Speaking of which, the ping-pong ball shattered!

In tennis, the rackets string was burned out

For the time being, I tried not to exaggerate, but I did my best in my own way.

However, as for volleyball and ping-pong, Kitaraku-senpai knew what happened in the ball game tournament and made a strange request to make the ball burst or shatter.

I myself have been able to control my power more than before, thanks in part to the fact that I can now handle my spiritual power, but I never thought that I would be forced to do the opposite here

But seeing me move like that, Kitaraku-senpai seemed satisfied.

Hahahahaha! Its more than I imagined! I knew I was right to ask you, Tenjou-kun!

Yu-Yuuya-san was indeed amazing, but is this really what you want?

Hmm? Is there something on your mind, Houjo-san?

Um, Im also happy to see Yuuya-sans achievements, but Yuuya-san is in the going-home club, and I think it would be a problem if students joined their respective club activities for the sake of this experience

Its all right! Ive properly told them in advance that hes a special guest for today only and that they can see him in action during the explanation of the school festival and sports events! Maybe theyll be interested in seeing him there.

Yo-youre very well prepared

No, no, no, what do you mean, see me?

I dont want them to make an important decision like choosing a school for that reason.

W-well, even without me, this school has a lot of club activities, interesting classes, and fun events to participate in.

Most of all, it is full of good people, and I can recommend it with confidence.

Then Kitaraku-senpai gave a fresh smile in response to my words.

Of course, it would be a problem if they enrolled just for the sake of it. Ive already advertised the good points of this school. Besides, the school idol show seems to have been a success.

T-Thats right! How did everyone else do?

I was so focused on introducing the club activities that I didnt pay much attention to it

Dont worry. As I said, the Open Campus stage was also a success. According to Nekota, who was there to support the girls, it was even better than the last time they performed.

I see

I was relieved to hear that the stage was a success because everyone had practiced hard.

Then Kitaraku-senpais smile deepened.

Im convinced this time. I knew I was on the right track! So, as a new plan, Im thinking of forming a male idol unit as well.

M-male idols?

While I was surprised by the unexpected words, Kitaraku-senpai nodded.

Thats right. So, Tenjou-kun! I want you to be a part of this male idol unit!

Eeeehhhh!?

Yu-Yuuya-san being an idol?

Seeing that Kaori was also surprised by Kitaraku-senpais words, this must have been another out-of-the-box idea of Kitaraku-senpais.

No, no, no, wait! Its impossible for me to be an idol! Ive been approached by Star Productions before about joining the entertainment industry, but I turned them down

Thats because its a full-fledged entertainment business, right?

Thats right, but

The only reason I turned it down was because I wanted to have a normal student life.

And I also didnt think it was right for me, who had no idea about the future, to do this to people who were seriously trying to become idols.

As you know, Im only talking about school idols. This is not a typical idol group where the focus is on TV appearances. Thats why its possible to balance your life as a student with your idol activities.

I-I know that, but

I can understand why you might want to step aside and think about those who take their idol work seriously. But dont you think it would be a waste to refuse a challenge in a world you havent even touched? Even if you dont feel like it now, you might be interested in it when you try it. In that sense, I think this male school idol project is perfect for you.

..

Yu-Yuuya-san

I couldnt say anything back to Kitaraku-senpais words.

Right now, I am not thinking about the future, and I am not even trying to challenge myself.

Besides, the environment that surrounded me now was pushing me to find something I want to do, but

I was so surprised that I fell silent, and Kitaraku-senpai smiled gently at me.

Well, take it easy.

So, I ended up participating as one of the school idols with a somewhat confused feeling.

Just as the open campus was being held at Ousei Academy, the rival school, Nittei Academy.

School Idol, you say?

In the student council presidents office at Nittei Academy, the student council president, Mirei Kamiyama, was receiving a report about Ousei Academy from her butler, Shirai.

Thats right.

No way, such a plan

Maybe it was the idea of their student council president.

Its that eccentric son of the Kitaraku group, isnt it?

I see Its like a vocational school run directly by another agency, isnt it?

Yes, thats right. Star Productions doesnt have a vocational school yet, does it?

Yes, well. Basically, we only scout for talent or select talent by auditioning selected individuals from the big vocational schools, you know?

Thats why wed like to take on the role of a vocational school.

When Kitaraku said that, the presidents eyes narrowed.

What advantages would there be for us to do this at Ousei Academy?

Of course, its an exclusive contract for the school idols we have now. In addition to the previous stage, I think we got a lot of publicity from this open campus. Also, we had reporters on stage at the open campus, so I am sure that the news will continue to spread after tomorrow. Thats how you sign a contract with a group like this.

Hmm but isnt that a bit weak? After all, we are already supporting you.

Exactly. Star Productions can get a famous idol group with a small amount of money. On top of that, you can choose from a variety of other options. That includes Tenjou-kun, of course.

Youve hit on exactly what we want. But even if they become school idols, it doesnt necessarily mean that they will pursue a career in the entertainment industry, right?

Thats true. But the possibility is not zero.

When he says this, Kitarakus smile deepens.

Actually, Tenjou-kun has also been chosen to be one of the school idols in the next group to be formed.

What did you say?

The president involuntarily stood up at Kitarakus unexpected words.

Well, what do you think? You might be able to sign a contract with an idol group that he will join, you know? Besides, if we set up an entertainment department, talented kids who aspire to the entertainment industry will gather in that department, so we will be more certain to get the talent the president is looking for. I dont want to put it this way, but there are a lot of talented kids in our school.

Kitaraku closed his mouth as if to say that he had already told the president what he wanted to say.

Faced with such a Kitaraku, the president broke out in a cold sweat.

Did you foresee this from the beginning?

No? Im just doing what I think is fun.

The president let out a sigh while relaxing her shoulders at the indescribable words of Kitaraku.

Sigh Thats okay. Ill take your suggestion!

With that, a lot of things started moving without Yuuyas knowledge.

At that time, in Between Worlds..

So? What about the rest of the world?

A bald, muscular man asked softly.

The masked man behind him bowed respectfully.

The invasion is complete.

I see They are fragile. If I give my power to a pawn, he can easily defeat even himself in a parallel world.

That makes me wonder more and more about the defeat of the previous pawn.

Oh, the piece that uses that strange power.

The piece that the masked man and his master were talking about was the very Yuuya of the parallel world.

Even though I didnt give him my power, when he lost his life, he had obtained a strange power called spiritual power. Therefore, I dont understand why he was defeated by the same being in the parallel world. I thought our pawn, with the same specifications and the power available to him after his death, would have been stronger

I dont know the details either, but it seemed that the counterpart in that pieces parallel world had acquired another unknown power that our piece did not have.

Unknown power I couldnt take away that spiritual or mystical power either. This time, I hope to get that power but thats okay. But more importantly, where is the world you invaded?

This way. The rest is yours to eat as you please

At that moment, countless worlds were laid out like soap bubbles in front of the man called Master.

The bald man grabbed one of the worlds with his hand, brought it to his mouth, slurped it down, and immediately absorbed it into his body.

Then he took the other worlds one by one and opened his mouth happily.

A little more, a little more.

I wonder, will this world be the last?

Yes. If we can absorb the world we failed to invade; we will be able to achieve our long-cherished dream.

The bald man said so clearly, while the masked man opened his mouth somewhat uneasily.

Is that really possible?

What?

Do you really think we can create a world we can live in?

..

In response to the masked mans words, the bald man kept his mouth shut for a moment.

We have no choice but to create it. You know that, dont you?

..

We have been rejected by the world since we were born, and we have lived in this Between Worlds. I can only look at the workings of the world from the outside. But I have gained the power and the means to intervene in the world! But only for a moment. Did you feel that when you killed that pawn?

Yes, I did. As soon as I killed that pawn, I was thrown out of that world.

Yes. No matter how much power we gain or rather, the more power we gain, the more the world rejects us. In the end, there is no world for us to live in.

The bald man said this with sadness, but his eyes were immediately filled with anger.

But! We were lucky. What has happened is that the dimensional boundary that even we could not cross has disappeared, and the worlds floating in this Between Worlds has doubled!

After saying this, the bald man clenches his fist.

If the world rejects us, then we must absorb it and use its power to create a world we can live in! We have no choice but to do so.

..

First of all, for this purpose I will take the power I just ingested completely into my body. And once that is done I will eat the last world.

In Between Worlds, the preparations of the invaders were in full swing.
