The Gloomy Me in Class is Actually the Vocalist of a Very Popular Band - CH 55

I led Eldora into the living room and plugged the USB flash drive containing Shiorin’s rehearsal videos into the TV monitor.

As he watched Shiorin and the others dancing, I asked him.

“…So, what do you think?”

Eldora put a hand on his chin, seemingly deeply interested as he watched.

“Hmm, they’re really cautious, I should say! They dance while checking their each and every move. These girls seem to have only just started practicing dancing, so if they slowly get rid of this habit of theirs, I’m sure they’ll get better!”

“They weren’t really cohesive as a team before this. They then studied from a textbook and used the DVD that came with it as reference for their dancing.”

I gave a rough background of Shiorin and the others’ dancing proficiency.

“I see! So they’re like, putting what they learnt into practice first and reestablishing their understanding of the basics! Hmm… the way I see it, the textbook they’re using as reference also seems to be of high quality.”

“You managed to discern even the quality of the book…?”

“Well, yeah. They seem to be following their textbook quite closely, after all. There are a lot of bad and fake textbooks in circulation out there, but this one is the real deal.”

As expected of Hasumi.

She must’ve researched very hard, filtering down books based on their reviews and reputation, before finally giving a credible book to Shiorin and the girls.

Knowing that her unseen labor was acknowledged by someone made me happy, even though I myself had no part in it.

If Hasumi heard Eldora’s words just now, she might cry again… I might even cry too.

“Alright, bro! Tell me the names of each of these girls.”

“From left to right, there’s Akarin, Shiorin, and Mihorin. By the way, they will have their all-important solo concert in one month, and they want to improve as much as possible before then. Also, they want to switch up their choreography and try something new.”

Even I thought that my request was a bit unreasonable as I spoke, but Eldora just laughed and patted his bulky chest.

“Alright! I’ll teach them some suitable choreography for their skill level; one that’s cool, cute, special, and incorporates the latest trends! It won’t be that hard, so they’ll be able to learn it in no time! Lend me your backyard, bro, I’ll record a video for them to learn.”

Thus, Eldora and I worked together to create an instructional video containing a set of choreography moves to go along a full-length song.

In this video taken in my yard, Eldora’s face was hidden with a cap and scarf so that people wouldn’t recognize him as Eldora.

Those clothes coupled with his buff and well-trained body made him look completely like a gangster from overseas.

But, well, it is better than his true identity getting exposed, I guess.

Eldora’s real face was actually quite stern and handsome, like a kabuki actor. The type that Japanese gals would go crazy for.

At school, Shion was overwhelmingly popular, but among the more badass, brawny types of men who loved brawling, Eldora was secretly seen as a strong man’s dream.

Incidentally, Eldora also practices capoeira (that is, Brazilian martial art), so he’s actually really strong in fights.

I think that, forget dancing, he could even be successful if he started a career in martial arts.

“…Finally done, huh. All I did was record the video though.”

“Ahhh, great work back there!”

Immediately after we finished recording the instructional video―

Eldora, who was currently in disguise, was about to head out the front door to hang out with me when suddenly, he found a man in a suit waiting for him.

Then, Eldora, who was planning on taking me with him and running, was grabbed by the man.

Looks like this man is his manager… So, just as I expected, he did come here without permission.

After one last goodbye hug with Eldora, the man grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and took him away.

Well, if his concert is on the day after tomorrow, then of course his manager would be like that… Plus, the scale of the concert this time is totally different from his usual concerts in Japan.

I guess the manager was hired because he could always catch hold of Eldora any time.

He was a foreigner who looked even more formidable than Eldora.

Actually, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen him at a martial arts tournament a long time ago.

I guess one must at the very least be on that level if they’re dealing with Eldora, huh…
