| Mostro Lounge - VIP Room | ||
Azul  |
Fufu, I feel as though I've gained a greater understanding of this Tsum's cooking and decision-making skills…
Now that I've finished placing the additional preorders… I suppose I should start heading back towards the Lounge. | |
| ||
| Mostro Lounge | ||
Azul |
Wh-What is going on!? The Mostro Lounge is completely packed with customers?
It was well within my calculations that we'd have an increase in customers with the Tsum here, but… How has this happened so quickly in such a short amount of time…? | |
Savanaclaw Student Savanaclaw Student  |
Hey, can't we get a seat yet? | |
Pomefiore Student Pomefiore Student |
Hurry up, I wanna see that cute thing I keep hearing about. | |
| [chattering] | ||
Azul |
The queue even extends outside the Lounge?
Hm? That's… | |
| [Azultsum bounces] | ||
Azul |
While I was off ordering supplies and ingredients…
The Tsum was instructed to stay near the storefront as our adorable mascot. What are Jade and Floyd doing, allowing it to roam around as it pleases? | |
| [Azultsum nudges a student] | ||
Azul |
The Tsum is pressing one of the Lounge's menus onto a customer? | |
Heartslabyul Student Heartslabyul Student |
H-Hey, stop it. If you keep trying to forcibly push me like that…
There's no way I'd be able to not order anything! You're too cute! | |
Azul |
What? | |
Heartslabyul Student Heartslabyul Student |
Excuse meee! I'd like to order! Can I get a refill of my drink, and… Also, a dessert! | |
| [Azultsum bounces happily and bounces away] | ||
Azul |
What in the… | |
Floyd  |
Ohhh? Hey, it's Azul. What're you doin' just standing around while we're all busy? | |
Jade  |
Oh, you've returned. I hadn't noticed due to our little café being much more swamped than usual. | |
| Azul Dorm} | Jade, Floyd, what is happening here? | |
Jade |
I think you can clearly see what exactly is happening here. | |
| [Azultsum presses a menu against another student] | ||
Scarabia Student Scarabia Student |
Ah, yeah. The way you push that up against me like that…
It's too cute, dammit! Bring me another drink― | |
Jade |
We've had customer after customer become simply enthralled by how the Tsum eagerly presses the menus onto them with its tiny body…
Everyone is placing orders left and right, like you couldn't believe. | |
Floyd |
Yeah, and it's 'cause of that I'm super tired.
And if we left Jade's Tsum out on the main floor, it'd prolly just ransack the place, so we had to put it to work in the kitchen. | |
Jade |
That Tsum was so eager to assist us out here, too. It seemed so disappointed that its helping hand was slapped away.
But putting that aside, if we continue at this pace, we expect our sales to increase by 5 times the usual amount. | |
Azul |
5 times!?
True, when Floyd's Tsum was here last time, I was increased threefold. Are you to tell me that we've already surpassed that amount? I should expect nothing less from a Tsum that bears my likeness. I am elated it has great business acumen…! | |
Jade |
Isn't it quite an astonishing amount? | |
Azul |
Indeed. This is a fantastic outcome! I shall have to heap praise onto that Tsum later!
If it would continue to generate such high profits like this, I would wish that we could keep my mini-me Tsum here forever. Ah, and of course, Jade and Floyd. You've both done a fantastic job. The increase in sales is all thanks to the two of you allowing the Tsum to do as it pleases! | |
Floyd |
Ahah. It's so rare for you to open and honestly compliment us like this. Must've been super happy, huh. | |
Jade |
I'm honored by your praise. Incidentally, Azul, would you allow a me and Floyd to suggest something? | |
Azul |
Suggest what? | |
Jade |
We would like to entrust the ownership of the Mostro Lounge to the Tsum.
That is, in your stead. | |
Azul |
Wh-What!? | |

| Mostro Lounge | ||
Azul |
You wish to see the Tsum as the Lounge's owner? What do you think you're saying, Jade? | |
Floyd |
An owner takeover bid. Basically, you're being let go, Azul. | |
Azul |
Don't be ridiculous. There's no way I would let that happen. | |
Jade |
You may say that, but in the business world, the only thing that matters is results…
Are you saying that you would be able to generate even more profit than the Tsum has in this short period of time? | |
Azul |
Of course. Besides, I cannot allow such a pushy and classless method to continue. | |
Floyd |
You sure you can call someone else pushy and classless? | |
Jade |
If anything, I do believe that is entirely your brand, wouldn't you say? | |
Azul |
I don't understand how you think that thing could possibly resemble me… | |
| [Azultsum presses a menu against another student] | ||
| [Azultsum continues pressing more menus] | ||
Floyd |
Seeeee? The way it just keeps on pressuring them with that shady grin,
It's just like you usually are. | |
Azul |
I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about. | |
Jade |
Returning to the point at hand, I see no issue with the method it uses.
The most important aspect to keep in mind is that the Tsum has garnered more sales than Azul. As someone who has the Mostro Lounge's best interests at heart… I have no choice but to propose a refresh by transferring the ownership to new hands. | |
Azul |
You say you have the Mostro Lounge's best interests at heart? Of course you would lie so brazenly about that.
You've just found something to tease me about and are simply thoroughly enjoying yourselves. You brushed it off as a suggestion earlier, but essentially you two seem to be asking me to leave. I emphatically refuse. I have no intention of going along with your tasteless games. | |
Jade |
We aren't playing any sort of game. We simply made the suggestion after serious consideration. | |
Azul |
Oh, is that so… I see.
Well, if you are going to insist that much, then allow me to show you why I am the more suitable owner. I challenge you, Tsum. We shall compete for ownership of the Mostro Lounge! | |
| [Azultsum becomes serious] | ||
Floyd |
Oooh, looks like the Tsum's raring to go. So, how're you gonna do this? | |
Azul |
We'll split the Lounge into two, and I shall be the owner of one half.
The Tsum will take ownership of the other half, and we will see who makes more sales. The winner is the undisputed superior owner and will take over Mostro Lounge from there on out. Well, I'll be the one to win, of course. | |
Jade |
So you plan on settling things once and for all with a head-to-head battle, I see. What an interesting concept you've concocted. | |
Azul |
Jade, Floyd, you can join the Tsum's side. I have no need for your assistance. | |
Jade |
Oh, are you sure? You think you will be able to garner more sales than the Tsum without our help? | |
Floyd |
If you reeeeally beg for it, I'll help you～ C'mon, c'mon, y'don't wanna grovel for me even a little bit? | |
Azul |
Don't make me repeat myself. Even if I were to keep you by my side, you would only get in my way. | |
Jade |
So untrusting of your employees, what a horrid owner… Ah, my mistake, former owner… | |
Floyd |
Guess that kind and charming Tsum is more suited to be the owner of the Mostro Lounge after all. | |
Azul |
Yes, yes, alright. Then please, go ahead and play manservants to that Tsum. | |
Jade |
Now then, we shall call the side where the Tsum is the owner the "Mostro Lounge First Branch."
And the side where Azul is the owner can be the "Mostro Lounge Second Branch." | |
Azul |
Wait a moment! Why am I the second branch? | |
Floyd |
Cause me n' Jade're over here, and it's just you over there.
If you think about what's closer to the original Lounge structure, that's totally this side. | |
Azul |
… Well, whatever. Everything will be made clear soon enough.
I shall show you that no one other than me is capable of being the owner of the Mostro Lounge. | |
| [Azultsum bounces excitedly] | ||
Floyd |
Looks like the Tsum's all excited too. | |
Azul |
I hold no grudges against the Tsum, but I shall have no mercy. Allow me to show you all the proper way to run a Lounge like this. | |

Savanaclaw Student Savanaclaw Student |
Alright, alright already. Hey, can I get a refill over here? | |
Jade |
Yes, of course, I'll bring it right away. | |
Floyd |
That Tsum's so tiny but it's got a ton of stamina. It just keeps going and going. | |
Jade |
Thanks to the Tsum's enthusiastic service, the first branch over here is overwhelmingly packed, as expected.
Compared to us… | |
Azul |
I should angle the chairs like this... No, more in this direction, I think.
Now, I only need to set this for each table… …Whew. Even half the space feels quite large when working by myself. And then there's this serene silence… Even the usual background music resonates differently when it's quiet. | |
Floyd |
Maan, what're you doin', Azul?
What, are ya just redecoratin' just 'cause you got nothing better to do? That's so sad. | |
Azul |
Heh. Talk while you can. You'll understand soon enough. | |
| [Azultsum bounces around the lounge] | ||
Floyd |
Huh? The Tsum's just as energetic as before, but ain't it kinda weird? | |
Jade |
Ah, so you've noticed, Floyd? That the number of our customers have been gradually decreasing. | |
Floyd |
Ah! Look over there. | |
Azul |
Here we have the special for today, an herb tea. It will soothe your weary body.
Are you ready to order over there? I'll be right with you. | |
Floyd |
Are we losing our customers to Azul? | |
Jade |
Oho. I see… | |
Floyd |
Haaah? What's goin' on? All our customers're gone! | |
Jade |
It seems so. And on the contrary, Azul's second branch is… | |
Azul |
Yes, I shall go check on that immediately.
Forgive me, currently we have no available seats. Would you please wait outside? | |
Jade |
It seems business is booming. | |
Floyd |
I don't get it. What's this all mean? | |
Azul |
Thank you very much for your patience. Would this table be acceptable? | |
Heartslabyul Student B Heartslabyul Student B |
Wow! From this seat, I have a great view of that cute Tsum. | |
Scarabia Student A Scarabia Student A |
This chair's so nice to sit in, too. The cushion is so soft and comfy. | |
Pomefiore Student B Pomefiore Student B |
How cute is that Tsum...!? | |
Ignihyde Student B Ignihyde Student B |
When it recommends stuff, I end up ordering too much and lose all my money. It's much better to be able to watch it from this distance. | |
Azul |
Oh my, you seem so weary. Please, rest at this table. | |
Savanaclaw Student B Savanaclaw Student B |
Wheeew～ This is so calming. I'm starting to feel a bit sleepy. | |
Azul |
That is aroma oil with a maritime fragrance. I do hope you are able to relax with this bit of solace. | |
Jade |
I see… You've put us in a bind, Azul. | |
Azul |
Oh, why, if it isn't Jade-san and Floyd-san from the café's first branch.
You seem to have nothing to do. How pitiful. | |
Jade |
So, you were adjusting the chairs earlier in order to cater to those who wished to view the Tsum from a fair distance…
When all's said and done, it seems the concept of the Lounge's second branch was "A relaxing space to observe the Tsum." | |
Floyd |
So, what, he basically used our own secret weapon against us? Seriously? | |
Azul |
What the customers of the Mostro Lounge seek is a top-class experience that differs from their ordinary lives.
An exciting and new experience like you provided would of course pique their curiosity, but I cannot see them enjoying it for long. In the end, they will pursue a soothing place to relax. That solace is what will drive people to come. Thus, the demand for my various types of relaxing herbal tea is soaring through the roof. I don't believe your side will have another customer ever again. | |
Jade |
The competition has been decided, then. I can acknowledge it. We've lost.
I did think we'd be able to have a little fun since the Tsums had shown up again... Fufu, it seems we've concluded this game with a reaffirmation of your abilities, Azul. | |
Floyd |
Awesome, that's Azul, for ya! Though that smug look's starting to piss me off. | |
Azul |
This was a foregone conclusion.
It was beyond foolish to challenge me, as I am always thinking about what's best for the Mostro Lounge. | |
| [Azultsum bounces to Azul] | ||
Azul |
This proves just how much of a difference our capabilities are. I hope you've fully grasped that! | |
Jade |
Oh my, are you truly that pressed to be declared the winner like this against such a small creature? Your ruthlessness is quite admirable. | |
Floyd |
Ah, the Tsum's doin' something. | |
| …...... | ||
| [Azultsum bounces in frustration] | ||
Floyd |
Ahahah! It’s bouncin’ like a flathead mullet! What, you getting’ all worked up on your own over there? | |
Azul |
What a lovely rebellious spirit. I would have been disappointed indeed if my copy here were to have given up so easily.
While you weren't able to match my level, well, I suppose you didn't do too terribly, either. Moreover, even if it was only for a short while, you did increase the profits of the Mostro Lounge. When we eventually open a new Lounge, perhaps I shall seriously consider making you a manager. It would be of that second branch, of course. | |
| [Azultsum bounces happily] | ||
Floyd |
Aw, you're so nice, Azul. So, whatcha cookin' up then? | |
Jade |
Well, it would be problematic if this money treeー or rather, I should say, this Tsum, felt dejected and chose to never come back again…
So I assume he merely said that to prevent that from possibly happening. | |
Azul  |
How could you possibly say that? I am always kind to everyone and anyone…
Aren't I just the epitome of generosity? | |
