Let’s remind Idia how the real world works.
Is what we declared earlier, but…
Idia really doesn’t leave his room at all!
|
Ignihyde Student A 
|
I heard that he was proficient in summoning classes, so I swapped out his equipment to try to embarrass him, but…
I didn’t expect for him to not even show up for practical application classes. Looks like he really doesn’t even like to interact with us “mediocre people.”
|
Ignihyde Student C 
|
Why is Idia given special treatment to attend classes with a tablet, anyway?
|
Ignihyde Student B 
|
It’s only a rumor, but… in return for safeguarding the school’s network environment, he’s received special permission from the Headmaster.
|
|
 Idia
Idia 
|
GG.
|
|
Ignihyde Student C 
|
What? A blatant act of favoritism from the school administration… Doesn’t this seem like some kind of issue?
|
Ignihyde Student A 
|
Oh man. I didn’t think we’d have to go this far, but… there’s no way we can stay nice and silent now.

Nice. Looks like you’ve logged in exactly on time today too, Crimson Muscle-shi!
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Yo.
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
Hey. So, we were planning to go collect weapon crafting materials today, right? Ready when you are.
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Ah, first let me tell you. I’m gonna dip a few min before midnight for something.
I should be back within 30 min, but it’d be great if you can go solo while I’m gone.
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
Understood.
|
 Idia
Idia 
|
Niiice~! A concise but reliable reply!
This is why Crimson Muscle-shi is my sole trustworthy comrade.
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
It’s rare for you to have other business. If you’re busy, you don’t have to rush back and stress, alright?
|
 Idia
Idia 
|
And this concern… I would love to see every single being in this school to learn from him.
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Not to worry! I will return shortly. This will be a quick and decisive battle.
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
Quick and decisive?
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Indeed.
Crimson Muscle-shi, are you familiar with the Fates?
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
Hm, I may have heard of it before.
You’re speaking of the Idol Group Fates on the Edge, yes?
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Yee! I expected nothing less, Crimson Muscle-shi! Your font of knowledge is large.
Recently, I’ve actually been pretty hyper-fixated on these ladies…
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
Oho. That’s a bit unexpected. I didn’t expect you to enjoy real life things, Gloomy Samurai.
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Wait, that’s so harsh lolol
I guess I get it, since I normally only speak of 2D things lolol
But anyway, there’s a reason that I got addicted to these 3-D idols…
They’re like jerky, where the more I taste of them, the more I end up wanting!
One of the charm points of the Fates is that they don’t have any kind of sparkly merch!
The three ladies of the Fates are just,
Performing with whatever the “thread of fate” they were given without any kind of fuss.
After all, humans are all bound to our fates by a single thin thread.
Once that breaks, everything ends…
That kind of fleeting feeling,
It really hits home to nerds like me…
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
I see. Apologies for not knowing anything about it.
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Ah, no. I’m sorry for going on forever on something you don’t care about. Just ignore me.
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
Actually, while listening to you talk so enthusiastically,
It also piqued my interest in Fates.
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
For you to be interested so quickly after being preached to about it…
Aren’t you too kind? It’s like you’re dropping 100 rare items for me or something.
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
Do you have a song you recommend for newcomers?
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
And you’re so proactive! Please take care of that ability!
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
Ability? I suppose it’s true that when I find something interesting, I have to check it out right away.
But don’t you think it’s a little too much of an exaggeration to call something like that an “ability”?
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
No way, it’s an amazing ability! It’s not something everyone can do.
And whenever you talk about a faraway land, you usually say “I’ve been there.”
I thought that maybe you were much older, but,
Maybe you’re an elite businessman who is always on business trips…?
I look up to you so much~~~~!
I wish that one day we could meet face-to-face…
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
Face-to-face? If you’re inviting me to meet offline, then I will rush to join you anytime.
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Ah, nononono! Actually, I’m living in a super remote place right now!
For the town I’m in, you’ll have to take a plane, a train, a bus and a ship to get here,
So it may be very difficult to meet up…
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
How fascinating. That is the same for me.
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Woah! Is that so~?
|
 Idia
Idia 
|
…Then I guess it definitely would be difficult to meet.
Oh, shoot, that was close. I’d have lost my very best online friend if I had forced him to come see me in person.
But Crimson Muscle-shi… He says something so proper like “I’ll join you anytime"… What a mature response…
For that guy, whether it’s making a recommended playlist or paying for a livestream, I’ll just do anything!
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Crimson Muscle-shi! I know you must be busy right now,
But if you have the time, please visit the Fates website from this URL…!
|
 Idia
Idia 
|
…Eh? The homepage looks a bit different from usual.
It’s completely black. What in the world is…
|
THE FATES IS A TERRIBLE IDOL GROUP!
|
 Idia
Idia 
|
!?
|
NOWADAYS, THESE KINDS OF EDGY, ALL-BLACK WEARING IDOLS ARE SO PAINFUL TO WATCH, THEY’RE SO PATHETIC I CAN’T EVEN LAUGH LOLOL
AND THOSE FANS WHO ARE ADDICTED TO SUCH LAME IDOLS (LMAO) ARE PROBABLY THE SAME LOL, THE LOWEST OF THE LOW LOLOLOLOL
|
 Idia
Idia 
|
Wh… Wha…
WHAT IS THISSSS!?
There’s just so much abusive language one after the another towards the Fates on the official site…
This is…
A cyber-attack on the Fates website server!?
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
…Some fool seems to be doing something petty.
Even if no one is watching, vulgar behavior such as this only serves to warp their heart and ruin their character.
|
 Idia
Idia 
|
Crimson Muscle-shi…
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
There’s no need for you to worry about it, Gloomy Samurai.
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Yeah. I appreciate your kind words.
…Sorry, I know it’s 30 min earlier than I planned, but I’m going to log off quickly.
|
Crimson Muscle 
|
I don’t mind, but… Are you alright?
|
Gloomy Samurai 
|
Completely fine. I’ll come back soon, so please wait

Gloomy Samurai… He must have suffered a great shock from seeing his favorite group be under such an unjust attack.
I hope he’s not too depressed.
