| ―EARLY SEPTEMBER | ||
Azul  |
It’s your turn next, Idia-san. Please hurry and move your piece. | |
Idia  |
Ahh～ …
…Haaah～～～～～～～～ | |
Azul |
Goodness. Ever since you arrived at the club today, you’ve just been sighing so loudly.
I thought perhaps… we could celebrate our appointment together at the Mostro Lounge, but it seems you would not be up for it. | |
Idia |
A celebration? Eh? You seriously saying that?
I don’t get at all why I should be happy that I became Dorm Leader. | |
Azul |
What a strange person. You do realize that we have become Dorm Leaders of the most prestigious Night Raven College, yes?
We are the head students who watch over these traditional dorms. I cannot think of any higher honor. | |
Idia |
Too bad that I’m not that feeble of a person to want to be burdened with taking care of others in order to satisfy my low self-esteem. | |
Azul |
Self-esteem? What a joke. There are many practical benefits that outweighs the “burdens” that may come with this position.
Whatever future path we end up choosing, the title of Former Dorm Leader of Night Raven College is distinguished and can be helpful later on. | |
Idia |
My path, huh…
Meh, it doesn’t matter to me anyway. | |
Azul |
?
…Ah, I see. Allow me to revise my statement. I suppose for an innovative startup company, tradition and honor wouldn’t be quite that useful. | |
Idia |
Eh? | |
Azul |
I was assuming that is the path you intend to take after graduation, Idia-san, correct?
It seems it would completely impossible for you to work according to established rules. | |
Idia |
…Yeah. Guess so.
…But hey, Azul-shi! You did spectacular becoming a Dorm Leader as a second year. Sucks that you have to sacrifice your fun student years doing this though～ From what I hear, you were really laying the groundwork quietly to become Dorm Leader or something? Man, it’s astounding that you went through all that trouble. | |
Azul |
Say what you wish. For me, it was a slow and arduous process.
Well, it was necessary to take my time in order to smoothly take over the Dorm Leader position without causing any waves, so it couldn’t be helped. | |
Idia |
Yeah, yeah, gg. You thought it out so well…
If you like having the authority so much, do you want to also serve as the Ignihyde Dorm Leader? | |
Azul |
Of course!
…Is what I would say, however that is a little too serious to even be a joke. There is no way that I would be able to lead another dormitory. | |
Idia |
Riiiight～～～ I just thought I’d try. | |
Azul |
If you dislike it so much, why did you accept the nomination of the former Dorm Director? | |
Idia |
Of course I refused at first. “Who’d want such a bad draw!?” I said.
But then Ortho said “Is there anyone else in Ignihyde who is as powerful as you, Nii-san?” with such an awestruck face… So that helped me realize. Just like Ortho said, there isn’t anyone in Ignihyde smarter or more capable than I am. There’s no way I was going to listen to someone who is of a lower level than me… That’s why I accepted it. If there was anyone else that could possibly take on the mantle of Dorm Leader, I would gladly give it up! | |
Azul |
…Despite all your complaining, you do seem to have great confidence in your own abilities.
If you have such pride in your competence, why not adjust that negative mentality of yours? The Dorm Leader is the “face of the dorm” after all. | |
Idia |
Eh, I don’t want to… Why should I have to lie to myself for other people?
These students are just complete strangers who just happened to be sorted into the same dorm. Even my classmates that I’ve spent two whole years in living in the same dorm with, I know only about half of their names and faces. | |
Azul |
Haah…
Well, it is as you say, I don’t believe there is anyone more suited for your role than you. Let us do our best together from here on out! | |
Idia |
What an empty compliment～ Way to say whatever you want just ‘cause it’s more convenient when someone you know is also a Dorm Leader.
Eh, but it really it true that there’s no one else more suited for me. I don’t want to be a Dorm Leader, but it can’t be helped since everyone else is just too mediocre. Haah― …It’s so hard being so amazing～! | |
Ignihyde Students Ignihyde Students  |
……………
… YOU KNOW WE CAN DEFINITELY HEAR YOU!!?? | |
Ignihyde Student A Ignihyde Student A |
It’s not normal to loudly diss other students like this when we’re the same dorm, same year, and in the same room, right!?
He can’t seriously be boasting about how he “doesn’t know our names and faces” when he’s the Dorm Leader! | |
Ignihyde Student C Ignihyde Student C |
Idia doesn’t normally come out of his room, right? I’m pretty sure a majority of the dorm students haven’t ever even spoken to him.
He’s said to be a magical engineering genius that you’d only see once every hundred years or so, but… what is he, a main character in a light novel? That makes me laugh. | |
Ignihyde Student B Ignihyde Student B |
Sounds like he’s been coddled so much that he’s gotten so cocky, and we’re not nice enough to follow someone who’s all talk.
Yeah, it’ll be more of a kindness to tell Idia that he’s not Dorm Leader material. | |
Ignihyde Student C Ignihyde Student C |
Absolutely. We can’t have him be all delusional. Let’s make sure he gets the message. | |

Ignihyde Student C Ignihyde Student C |
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 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 Ignihyde Student C |
Why is Idia given special treatment to attend classes with a tablet, anyway? | |
Ignihyde Student B 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  |
GG. | |
Ignihyde Student C 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 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. | |

Idia  |
Nice. Looks like you’ve logged in exactly on time today too, Crimson Muscle-shi! | |
Gloomy Samurai Gloomy Samurai |
Yo. | |
Crimson Muscle Crimson Muscle |
Hey. So, we were planning to go collect weapon crafting materials today, right? Ready when you are. | |
Gloomy Samurai 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 Crimson Muscle |
Understood. | |
Idia |
Niiice～! A concise but reliable reply!
This is why Crimson Muscle-shi is my sole trustworthy comrade. | |
Crimson Muscle 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 |
And this concern… I would love to see every single being in this school to learn from him. | |
Gloomy Samurai Gloomy Samurai |
Not to worry! I will return shortly. This will be a quick and decisive battle. | |
Crimson Muscle Crimson Muscle |
Quick and decisive? | |
Gloomy Samurai Gloomy Samurai |
Indeed.
Crimson Muscle-shi, are you familiar with the Fates? | |
Crimson Muscle Crimson Muscle |
Hm, I may have heard of it before.
You’re speaking of the Idol Group Fates on the Edge, yes? | |
Gloomy Samurai 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 Crimson Muscle |
Oho. That’s a bit unexpected. I didn’t expect you to enjoy real life things, Gloomy Samurai. | |
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 Crimson Muscle |
I see. Apologies for not knowing anything about it. | |
Gloomy Samurai Gloomy Samurai |
Ah, no. I’m sorry for going on forever on something you don’t care about. Just ignore me. | |
Crimson Muscle Crimson Muscle |
Actually, while listening to you talk so enthusiastically,
It also piqued my interest in Fates. | |
Gloomy Samurai 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 Crimson Muscle |
Do you have a song you recommend for newcomers? | |
Gloomy Samurai Gloomy Samurai |
And you’re so proactive! Please take care of that ability! | |
Crimson Muscle 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 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 Crimson Muscle |
Face-to-face? If you’re inviting me to meet offline, then I will rush to join you anytime. | |
Gloomy Samurai 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 Crimson Muscle |
How fascinating. That is the same for me. | |
Gloomy Samurai Gloomy Samurai |
Woah! Is that so～? | |
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 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 |
…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 |
!? | |
| 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 |
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 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 |
Crimson Muscle-shi… | |
Crimson Muscle Crimson Muscle |
There’s no need for you to worry about it, Gloomy Samurai. | |
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 Crimson Muscle |
I don’t mind, but… Are you alright? | |
Gloomy Samurai Gloomy Samurai |
Completely fine. I’ll come back soon, so please wait | |

I’ve been listening here beside you this whole time, but, um… don’t think about it too much…okay? It’s terrible that they’re smearing something you love like that, Nii-san. I’ll hook myself up and kick out the perpetrator! | |
Idia |
… Kick out… Ortho will? | |
Ortho |
Yeah! So please don’t feel so down… | |
Idia |
Then… I won’t be able to forgive them at all…! | |
Ortho |
Eh? | |
Idia |
This is just a test of my love for the Fates…
The nerve. Fine, I’ll play their little game. I’ll hunt down the villain who attacked the Fates website with my own hands! | |
| ||
Idia |
These… worms don’t know what they should and shouldn’t do!
I’ll teach a lesson to those who think that just because they’re anonymous, that they can casually just spout whatever they want without thinking! | |
| THEIR SONGS, OUTFITS, AND PROMOTIONAL VIDEOS ARE ALL SO SHABBY. THEY ARE LOW-BUDGET AND LOW-QUALITY IDOLS THAT ARE IN DECLINE. | ||
Idia |
Whhhhhhaaat is “shabby,” huh!? The Fates’ clothes are all neat and classical and cute, yo!
You think your eyes are so great that you can say for certain whether someone is shabby or not!? Are all the mirrors in your house broken!? Even if you’re some kind of superior specimen sponsored by high-end brands… The moment you’ve stained your hands with such a vile deed, you’re absolutely nothing! You’re no different from me in my worn-out hoodie! Done! | |
| THE FANS ARE ALL TEARY-EYED CAUSE THEY KNOW WE’RE RIGHT LOLOL. THEY MUST ALL BE RED IN THE FACE CAUSE WE HIT THE BULLS-EYE LOL! | ||
Idia |
Shut up, worm! Far from my face, my hair is what’s red, what’s wrong with that!? It’s way better than a cowardly hater who has no aesthetics or common sense
I’m going to figure out everything about you and make you regret you were ever born, so you better prepare yourself!!!!! | |
Ortho |
Nii-san is super ticked off…
This might be the first time in a while I’ve seen Nii-san this angry where he’s not just making fun or acting silly. | |
Idia |
K, I’m finished. | |
Ortho |
Eh? | |
Idia |
So lame, I could crack their IP so fast. They left so many footprints in their entry path into the system, that it was so easy to find them, these wannabes! | |
Ortho |
So fast… It didn’t even take him 3 minutes to identify the perpetrator!
That might be faster than I could have done. | |
Idia |
I’ll restore the website and ban access to all those who helped launch this foolish attack…
While I’m at it, I’ll place parental controls on all their computers! Wet’s onwy wook at websites that’ll wead-awoud bwooks to you fwom now on, k― I’ll change aww the bwookmawks to baby stowe sites― Because you'we aww widdle babies who don’t know wight fwom wong, right―? | |
Ortho |
Wow. The probability that the perpetrator will get angry… Even without calculating I know it would be 100%, Nii-san. | |
Idia |
Sooo… What should I do now!?
Heeheehee! First, I’ll grab their personal information from their IP… …Mm? | |
Ortho |
Huh. This IP looks familiar… Wait, could the perpetrator be… | |
Idia |
……
Aaaaahh―――――――――――――― It’s fine, fine. I’m cool. I’m fine. | |
Ortho |
Nii-san? | |

Ortho. Your brother is going to step out for a bit. | |

[yawns] …We were already asleep. Why in the world are you calling us out here in the middle of the night? | |
Idia |
… | |
Ignihyde Student B Ignihyde Student B |
He already figured it out, huh… Well, this is still within our expectations so far. | |
Ignihyde Student C Ignihyde Student C |
This is just the usual timid Idia. If we face him right on, he’ll probably be unable to say anything anyway. | |
Idia |
……Uhhh……So…… | |
Ignihyde Student A Ignihyde Student A |
What’s wrong, “Dorm Leader” Idia? C'mon, we’re listening. Don’t you have something to say? | |
Idia |
…
Then, I’ll just come out and say it, what was with that super lame cyber-attack? It was so ill-mannered you had my head spinning. It was like you had just walked over a carpet wearing muddy shoes. Didn’t you learn as a child to remove all mud at the door? Besides, you should only be allowed to play in the mud like that until you’re about five years old. That software you guys used, you picked it up on a forum where hackers generally go, didn’t you? I know because I made and released that software when I was five years old. It’s ancient trash that I had forgotten I even made it. I wanted to forget it. Just checking, but you are all students of Ignihyde, the dorm that is modeled on the dilligence of the Lord of the Underworld, right? From beginning to end, everything you did was so sloppy. Both your idea and actions were so low-leveled and lazy. Where’d that diligence go? If you’re Ignihyde students, then be more self aware. | |
Ignihyde Students Ignihyde Students |
… | |
Idia |
Do you want to say something? If not, then we’re done here. | |
Ignihyde Student A Ignihyde Student A |
Ah, no… | |
Ignihyde Student B Ignihyde Student B |
Not… really… | |
Idia |
Okay. Don’t do something this embarrassing next time. Bye. | |
Ignihyde Students Ignihyde Students |
… | |
Ignihyde Student A Ignihyde Student A |
So, Idia… really can speak normally, huh… | |
Ignihyde Student B Ignihyde Student B |
More like, I’m getting more and more embarrassed that we were so proud of what we did… | |
Ignihyde Student C Ignihyde Student C |
I-I feel you! The difference in our abilities is so vast that if there was a hole here right now, I’d want to climb into it! | |
Ignihyde Student A Ignihyde Student A |
But y'know, that last thing he said…
Was Idia encouraging us to “try harder” in his own way? What’s more, I had heard that he loved the “Fates” but he didn’t get angry at all… The way he left all coolly… | |
Ignihyde Student C Ignihyde Student C |
Urgh, so cool…! I’m so weak to stuff like that!! | |
Ignihyde Student B Ignihyde Student B |
Humph… This was just such a roundabout way to do this. If it wasn’t for us, we never would have seen that sincere side of him, y'know? | |

Man, what a handful. …That’s our Idia-ryōchō! | |

Oh, welcome back, Nii-san. You were pretty fas… | |
Idia |
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH――――――――!!!!
Sliding into home at just at midnight on the dot! Gotta access the Fates website immediately! Great, the site’s been restored already! I’d expect nothing less of the Fates. They way that they never falter before adversity is the best! Yessss! I got it! | |
Ortho |
You got it…? …Oh, right!
I remember now, the Fates on the Edge concert tickets go on sale today. | |
Idia |
Yeah!
Only 100 of these premium tickets are being sold at midnight, and it comes with a post-performance interview! Maaan, when I saw the site went down, my entire mind went blank, but I’m glad that I was able to purchase it. Ufufu. I absolutely must report such an exciting thing to Crimson Muscle-shi. I’m sure he’ll definitely be happy for me too! And then one day we can… go see them together…! Ufufu… Fuheeheehee…! | |
Ortho |
I would think that there may be other things to report…
But it seems like to my brother, something like disciplining a dormitory student is so trivial that he doesn’t even consider it trouble. | |
Idia |
Alright. Now that I was able to safely get the ticket… Wait for me―! Crimson Muscle-shi! | |
