Mostro Lounge
Floyd Floyd	Hey, d'ya not think Mostro Lounge has been way too quiet recently? I haven't gotten to squeeze anyone for ages, I'm so bored. My body's gonna get as stiff as a barnacle's if this keeps up.
Jade Jade	Floyd, you need to stop lying down on the tables. Azul will get angry at you again.
Floyd Floyd	He's not here, it's fiiine... Actually, where is he? It's almost closing time, but I don't see him anywhere.
Jade Jade	Who knows? Perhaps he has been thrust into despair over the lack of customers and...
Azul Azul	Don't be ridiculous.
Jade Jade	Oh my, speak of the devil. *chuckle* It was a mere jest.
Azul Azul	At least some of us can remain optimistic...
Floyd Floyd	Why you lookin' so upset?
Azul Azul	There's something I'd like to show you. Come with me.
Jade Jade	Is it alright to leave Mostro Lounge unmanned?
Azul Azul	The other staff can take care of it fine. ...This is an emergency, you see.
Beside Mister S's Mystery Shop
Azul Azul	We've arrived.
Jade Jade	This is...the Mystery Shop?
Floyd Floyd	What do we need from here? You buyin' another new board game or something?
Azul Azul	Let's just go inside for now. I'll explain there.
Mister S's Mystery Shop
Sam Sam	Alright! All the little imps here to buy, line up properly now. C'mon, you don't need to rush like that, it won't sell out. I'll take you all in order, just calm down, yeah?
Floyd Floyd	Guh. It's so cramped in here.
Jade Jade	The shop was never that large to begin with, and all I can see is people, people, and more people... The Mystery Shop is rather popular today, isn't it?
Azul Azul	Not just today. Upon looking into it, it has been this popular for the past week. As for the reason...
Cater Cater	Oh? Well, if it isn't the Octavinelle buddy trio.
Floyd Floyd	Ah, Perchy!
Cater Cater	I see you haven't given up those nicknames of yours, Floyd. Mind if I copy you?
Azul Azul	Hello, Cater. Have you come to do some shopping yourself?
Cater Cater	Of course. Gotta keep up-to-date with whatever's trending, after all ♪
Jade Jade	Whatever's trending?
Cater Cater	Yup! The Mystery Shop's started selling its own original drink that's been gradually gaining more popularity. And its name is...the Mystery Drink!
Floyd Floyd	Did he even try?
Cater Cater	But it sounds all mysterious, don't you think? Lotta people have been saying it tastes super nice ♪
Jade Jade	Now that you mention it...everyone that has exited the shop has been holding a transparent cup with a thick straw poked through it.
Cater Cater	Yup, yup! Each drink has these colorful gummies inside. Cute, right? Taste is important, of course, but there's no denying it's totally Magicammable like this ♪
Azul Azul	This here is the reason Mostro Lounge's business performance has been dropping. The Mystery Shop has been stealing all our customers.
Jade Jade	I see. Is this what you wanted to show us?
Azul Azul	Yes. I knew the Mystery Shop had introduced a new product to their line, but to think it had gained this much popularity... We must act immediately.
Floyd Floyd	If it's that nice, I kinda wanna taste it. Let's buy some before we leave.
Jade Jade	Then I will line up with you. You're planning on ordering one, as well, aren't you, Azul?
Azul Azul	Honestly, I can't say I'm thrilled at the thought of consuming something when I don't even know what it's made of, but... if we want to make a plan, we need to at least know what we're dealing with. I'll take one as well, please.
Floyd Floyd	Mm.
Azul Azul	Hm? What are you holding your palm out for?
Floyd Floyd	We're doing this for Mostro Lounge, ain't we? Treat us.
Azul Azul	You're quite the schemer when you want to be, aren't you? Fine. How much... 600 Madol?! For a drink made with such cheap ingredients?! I can't believe this, there's a line where you're going way over excessive profits!
Floyd Floyd	Doesn't most of Mostro Lounge's profits come from drinks, anyway? Do you really think you're in any place to talk?
Jade Jade	You made just the comment I expected you to. This is rather amusing to watch.

Mostro Lounge
Floyd Floyd	Man, waiting in that line at the Mystery Shop tired me out. Mostro Lounge is so much more relaxing with how few customers it has.
Jade Jade	That isn't a good thing, Floyd.
Azul Azul	Let's taste this Mystery Drink that managed to rip our customers away from us. A non-descript plastic cup filled with fizzy juice. The only other addition is those colorful gummies. I will admit that putting gummies inside juice is indeed an interesting idea, but...isn't this just a product that will die out after its intial boom?
Jade Jade	But I believe Cater described the taste as, "super nice!"
Azul Azul	He's just been influenced by the appearance. I'm keeping my expectations low. Either way, if we drink it, we'll know ourselves. Let's not waste any time.
Jade & Floyd Jade & Floyd	If you'll excuse me. / Mmkay.
*slurp* *gulp* ...
Azul Azul	...It tastes so good! *gasp* I didn't mean to cry out like that.
Jade Jade	This is amazing. I've never drank something as delicious as this neither in the ocean nor on land!
Floyd Floyd	What the hell?! This tastes so super good!
Azul Azul	The secret to the flavor is the gummies put inside them. They aren't simply for decoration. Each piece adds something. The yellow gummies have a scent and sweetness to it just like ripe fruit. Is it made from the jewel pineapples of Shaftlands? The red gummies have a refreshing taste to them like strawberries ripely picked... I believe this must have used ruby berries. The black gummies contain a rich chocolate flavor with a light hint of a floral taste.
Azul Azul	This must be using floral cacao that only blooms once every ten years in the Sunset Savanna. The green gummies have a cool sensation that runs through the nose, likely from the frozen mint that only grows in cold mountainous areas. And the exquisite saltiness of the blue gummies no doubt are from the azure natural salt rarely found in the Coral Sea! The exciting carbonation that is always jumping about on your tongue, controlling the intensity of the gummy flavors is most likely...
Floyd Floyd	Azul looks like he's havin' fun. Has he forgotten we're here?
Jade Jade	All it took was consuming it to be able to analyze the ingredients so thoroughly. Is this the results of his family's education?
Floyd Floyd	His family?
Jade Jade	His home is a famous ristorante in the Coral Sea. We went together with him when we were still in middle school. Have you already forgotten?
Floyd Floyd	Oh yeah, I...guess we did? All I remember is Azul reeeaaally not wanting us to go.
Jade Jade	Oh my, that's a shame. The carpaccio was so delicious... One's home being a ristorante means he has likely tasted all manner of foods growing up, thereby training his tongue. In reality, Azul is quite the gourmand.
Floyd Floyd	Then why doesn't he eat more? He barely eats anything recently. It's so boring.
Azul Azul	...I think that about sums it up. Were you two listening?
Jade Jade	Yes, of course.
Floyd Floyd	Yeah, yeah, I was listenin'.
Azul Azul	This drink is certainly delicious. I have no doubt it will only gain in popularity from here. If we want to get our customers back, we must make a product that can compete with this. ...But there is one big problem.
Jade Jade	A problem, you say?
Azul Azul	Producing this Mystery Drink would normally not be profitable with the regular processing method. This uses jewel pineapples and ruby berries! Even the azure salt costs 3000 Madol for just a pinch. ...And yet, these are only being sold for 600 Madol a cup? I was completely wrong to call it excessive profits! You wouldn't earn that money back if you were even to sell it for 1000 Madol a piece.
Jade Jade	So in other words, Sam is only losing money the more he sells.
Azul Azul	Sam has great business smarts. He wouldn't do something so foolish. I can say this for certain as a fellow businessman. He deals with all kinds of goods, and has connections in all kinds of places. He must have a special procurement route. Using only the finest ingredients to create the most exquisite flavor, thereby supplying the guests with a satisfaction well above the price... That is why the Mystery Drink is so popular. If we attempted to imitate this without any of the proper connections...
Jade Jade	We would have to sell it for a much higher price, correct?
Azul Azul	Correct. That said, were we to lower the quality of the ingredients, the taste would not match up. Now, how exactly should we approach this?
Floyd Floyd	I don't really get it, but basically, you're saying it's impossible for us to make the same thing, yeah?
Azul Azul	...
Jade Jade	That is what I was thinking, as well. The Mystery Shop has served as the school store for the prestigious Night Raven College for generations. Mostro Lounge has only been open for a year in comparison. There is gap between our respective achievements as a business, and the trust from the customers, that will be difficult to fill. I believe it would be impossible to find a procurement route any better than what the school store has managed.
Floyd Floyd	So basically, Mostro Lounge is barely even a rival to the school store is what you're saying.
Azul Azul	Rival...?
Floyd Floyd	Then why not we just go sabotage them a little bit, as their business competitor?
Azul Azul	Rival, business competitor... Of course. Hehhehheh! How interesting...
Jade Jade	Hm? You're making quite the excited face there. Have an idea of what to do?
Floyd Floyd	Huh? We gonna make a yummier drink that's cheaper?
Azul Azul	No. As Jade said, that is impossible. But I've thought of a...much better plan.

Mostro Lounge
After School
*chatter chatter*
Jade Jade	These trays are for tables number five and six. Hm? Table three's order hasn't came through? Please confirm with the kitchen. How many people are waiting outside? 40 groups currently, you say? I see, this certainly is tough.
Heartslabyul Student A Heartslabyul Student A	I'd like to make an order!
Heartslabyul Student B Heartslabyul Student B	Us, too!
Jade Jade	Of course, I will be over shortly.
Floyd Floyd	Here ya go. One Mostro Lounge Special Set... ...I've already said this 102 times today!
Azul Azul	Both of you better keep working hard to deal with all these customers.
Jade Jade	Oh my, we're almost out of napkins. Floyd...is probably not in the mood to go on a trip to the shop.
Azul Azul	It's fine. I'll go today.
Floyd Floyd	..."I'll go today," he says. Azul's in such a good mood it's creepin' me out.
Mister S's Mystery Shop
Heartslabyul Student A Heartslabyul Student A	Did you see Vil's Magicam?
Heartslabyul Student B Heartslabyul Student B	I did! Ever since then, all the famous people in Twisted Wonderland have been drinking the Mystery Drink. They're getting it delivered straight from Night Raven College!
Azul Azul	Oh my, I see the Mystery Shop has a big a crowd as usual.
Ortho Ortho	Hello, Azul Ashengrotto!
Azul Azul	Hello there, Ortho. Did you come here to buy a Mystery Drink, as well?
Ortho Ortho	Yup. I thought it would be good to buy the current trending drink and let my brother taste it.
Azul Azul	Good idea. I'm sure he'll be very happy.
Ortho Ortho	Ah. Maybe I shouldn't have said that in front of you when you have your own restaurant. Honestly, I want Big Bro to go visit Mostro Lounge as well, but... he still doesn't like leaving his room very much. You even play with him so much during club. I'm sorry.
Azul Azul	Oh no, please don't worry about something like that! We get to compete with a rival company, while supplying a form of leisure to the school. I couldn't be happier. I aim to provide the best goods possible without becoming too wrapped up in short-term profits. The Mystery Drink will not simply end as the latest fad. I pray for its continued development.
Ortho Ortho	Azul... You seem so kind and refreshed today! What happened?
Azul Azul	Ortho, I'm always kind and refreshed.
Mostro Lounge
After Closing
Floyd Floyd	Ugh, I'm exhausted... I don't want to move a single fin...
Azul Azul	Good work today, you two!
Jade Jade	Azul, please take a look. There are many pictures of the Mystery Drink uploaded on Magicam today, as well.
Azul Azul	You're right. They're all still obsessing over it without getting tired. One that knows little often repeats it... *chuckle* How about we have them spread "our" popular product, the Mystery Drink, even further?
Jade Jade	*chuckle* I never imagined you would get the rights to sell the Mystery Drink and then turn it into a product on our menu here. I was surprised when you explained the plan to me, and even more so when you really put it into action.
Azul Azul	When Floyd said that we were barely even a rival to them, it suddenly occurred to me. If there is no sign of victory when fighting against them, then I simply have to play my cards before we fight.
Floyd Floyd	I didn't say that 'cause I wanted to have to deal with this whole mess!
Azul Azul	Now, now. Floyd, you managed to "sincerely" appeal to Sam to gain us the selling rights. And Jade managed to use his own "sincerity" to persuade Vil as a popular Magicammer to promote our drink. It's all thanks to you two.
Jade Jade	It seems I misjudged just how much of a businessman you were. It was already interesting when you brought the prospect of a dealership to the table, but... then you left the drink as-is, and sold it as a collaboration menu with the Lounge. I didn't think it would gather this many customers.
Azul Azul	Mostro Lounge's limited edition "Special Menu", featuring a collaboration Mystery x Mostro Drink... People would naturally come flocking were they to see that the trending drink was being presented in such a unique fashion.
Floyd Floyd	You're sellin' it for 1500 Madol or something, right? That's, like, double the 600 Madol it's being sold for at the Mystery Shop. The ingredients are the same, and yet you serve it in a fancy glass and they'll all buy the higher-priced version. Is this actually real?
Azul Azul	People want to buy a story. Sam's Mystery Shop and Azul's Mostro Lounge... Those two shops should be rivals and yet here they are working together hand-in-hand. That special feeling is important.
Floyd Floyd	I don't get it, at all. You think of funny things, Azul.
Jade Jade	I'm glad you were able to achieve the profits you hoped for.
Azul Azul	The money is important, but...the fact we were able to negotiate a deal with the school store is also important. I intend to continue developing Mostro Lounge further. I need as many connections as possible for that.
Jade Jade	... *chuckle*
Azul Azul	What?
Jade Jade	You really do treasure Mostro Lounge, don't you?
Azul Azul	Is that something you really need to point out? I started this business, the last thing I want to do is watch it go bust.
Jade Jade	But if all you wanted to do was earn money, aren't there many other easier methods? You have an attachment to Mostro Lounge.
Floyd Floyd	Ahh, I get that. Whenever you talk about the Lounge, you always get all excited.
Azul Azul	Hah. An attachment? Do you really think I act based on such illogical emotions? I can profit while also gathering information on the school's goings-on. That is why I treasure our Lounge.
Jade Jade	Yes, yes. Whatever you say.
Floyd Floyd	Heeeey, I'm all thirsty. Can I drink one of them? We have a ton, don't we?
Jade Jade	Good idea. Let us toast to Azul's success.
Azul Azul	No, I'm fine. I've already consumed the necessary nutrients for the day, so I'll refrain.
Floyd Floyd	There it is. Azul out here ruining the mood again. You never change, huh?
