CH 52

Having heard my unsolicited lecture, Shiorin now looked at me with expectant eyes.

“I-If you don’t mind, could you please continue giving us advice from now on?! I’ll send you our rehearsal videos!”

“Y-Your rehearsal videos?! Can I really have those?!”

The unexpected acquisition of premium goods made my heart quiver.

I’m so much of an otaku, it’s disgusting.

“Yeah! I trust you a lot, Ritsuki, so it’s okay!”

“D-Don’t misuse it, okay? I trust you too after all, Ritsuki!”

Akarin and Mihorin also gave me their permission.

Also, it looks like somehow, the way they addressed me grew one step more intimate as well.

Apparently, the girls had really taken a liking to my high-handed vocal guidance earlier.

“A-Alright! I’ll also help you guys as much as I can!”

I made this promise to Shiorin and the others, having been completely enticed by the prospect of obtaining a video clip of them.

No, this is only for advice-giving purposes, so I definitely won’t be watching it for fun or anything like that, okay?!

I watched through the rest of their rehearsal session and gave them various other advice about their singing.

Hasumi stared at me with a blush on her face, surprised at my unexpected ability, but also somewhat dazed.

I was about to approach Shiorin to get a closer look at how she was using her mouth and throat when she sang, when suddenly, Hasumi panicked and suggested a break.

―That was a close call. I was too focused on instructing her, but even then, staring at a girl’s mouth up close is definitely a huge no-no.

Hasumi must have stopped me before I got too creepy.

“S-Sorry for interrupting the lesson… B-But you see, pushing yourself is not good for your body!”

“Thank you, Hasumi…”

Hasumi, who considerately covered for me, provided this vague excuse.

Then, she let out a sigh, seemingly regretting something.

―Later, when it was time to head home, I got the rehearsal video from the girls as a souvenir, just as promised.

That night, I sat alone in my room, thinking.

For singing, I think I should be good enough to teach them for now.

But they might need a trainer for their dancing and choreography.

Hmmm… the only person I know who’s good at dancing is that guy, I guess…

Maybe I should ask them.

I took out Shion’s phone.

Then, I started typing a message.

“I would like you to teach dancing and choreography; could I ask this favor of you?”

And, send… No reply, huh.

Well, they’re a celebrity too, so I guess they must be busy.

It’d be definitely impossible for them to come and instruct the girls in person, but I was hoping that they could at least watch Shiorin’s rehearsal video and give them some advice…

Well, maybe I’ll get a reply in the morning.

With this hope in mind, I went to bed.
