Episode 5-4: Public Announcement!
—A few days later—
Cafeteria
Grim Grim	Phew, I’m starving! Days when we have P.E. feel so much longer, yanno?
Ace Ace	Aren’t you always hungry regardless of what day it is? … Hm?
Deuce Deuce	There’s a lot of people gathering by the bulletin board. What’s going on? Let’s see… An audition for the Joint Cultural Festival’s Vocal & Dance Championship…? Oh, it’s that music contest for the cultural festival.
Ace Ace	I’ve seen them broadcast it on TV before, but I didn’t know that the contestants audition to appear on stage. “Come and join us! Aspiring singers and dancers, this is your chance for stardom!” “You shall represent our glorious school!” “In the case that you are chosen to be part of the finalists…” “The prize money of 5 million Madol will be divided among the participating members.”
Grim, Ace & Deuce	5 MILLION MADOL!?
Crowley Crowley	Indeed! How very wonderful, is it not!?
Grim, Ace & Deuce	WHA—?! DON’T SCARE US LIKE THAT!
Ace Ace	Headmaster, I’m gonna be blunt. Stop appearing out of thin air all the time!
Crowley Crowley	Oh, my. Pardon me. I didn’t mean to startle you. There is a reason as to the prize money for this year’s Vocal & Dance Competition. That is because this competition is widely sponsored by a lot of major companies. The VDC is very different from local school band play-offs. The finalists are given thousands of offers from talent agencies for a professional debut. Being a top-performing artist will no longer be a dream. It’s an honest-to-goodness music battle with the school’s name and your future on the line. And of course, the prize needs to be just as grand to ensure groundbreaking performances.
Ace Ace	I see. If the sponsors can find their next star in this competition, 5 million is basically like pocket change for them.
Grim Grim	If I had that kinda money, I’d probably be drowning in all the canned tuna I can buy, yanno!
Deuce Deuce	Wait just a sec. The prize money is divided between the members. If there are four members, then that would be… Wait, 500 ÷ 4 is… Tens, hundreds, uh…
Ace Ace	1, 250, 000 per person. That’ll buy you about 4000 of those 300 Madol canned tunas.
Grim Grim	Woohoo!! 4000 cans!!! Hey, hey, Yuu! Let’s join the tournament!
Choice 1: You have to pass the audition first.		Choice 2: You won’t be able to finish 4000 canned tunas, Grim…
Crowley Crowley	The members are traditionally chosen from the choral club and the light music club… But our College has chosen to allow any and all students to join the audition.
Deuce Deuce	An honest competition where the best will stand out on top, huh!
Crowley Crowley	Of course, there are students who have been training for this since last year, too, but… I just figured that everyone should get the chance to dream about stardom as well. Fufu, what do you think? How very kind of me, is it not? Anyone has the right to try out for the audition. I am looking forward to see who our representatives will be~
