【Congratulations Kana-chan, if you grab this opportunity, your fame will definitely skyrocket!】
Seeing Arima Kana so happy, Ichika, with tears she hadn't had time to wipe away, replied with a smile.
Just after sending the message, suddenly, a message popped up in Ichika's eyes, from her manager:
【Ms. Nakano, I have an opportunity for you to appear on "Start Dating Seriously Now", are you interested?】
Seeing the message, Ichika was stunned.
What the heck? Has this super popular variety show become something everyone has a chance at?
Masaka?! Has Arima Kana and her manager been scammed by some con artist?!
Thinking about it, Ichika looked shocked, before she could reply, her manager sent another message, dispelling Ichika's doubts:
【This is just a pre-heating for the second season of "Start Dating Seriously Now", it's just filming a segment about ordinary people dating, and if you do well, there's a chance you can be a guest in the second season! It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!】
【Is this opportunity for me?】
Putting aside other thoughts, Ichika, still a little incredulous, asked.
【Of course... not, there's only one chance to participate, and it requires a female artist with dating experience, it's just that I don't want to miss such a good opportunity, Ichika, you're so beautiful, you must have a boyfriend, right? Do you want to participate?】
The manager explained that in Japan's entertainment industry, there aren't many opportunities for newcomers to directly appear on a super popular variety show, it's practically zero!
As for other so-called new actresses appearing in big-name film and television productions, she didn't need to say more, the black waters of this industry, even an old woman like her would be sucked dry if she went in.
And now, she finally got a chance, how could she possibly let it go so easily?
She didn't know about Ichika's dating history, but Ichika was so beautiful, she definitely wouldn't lack suitors, and if Ichika could be chosen, then the chance of her having a rising star in her hands would double!
Looking at her phone screen, Ichika was about to reply that she wanted to participate, but thinking about dating experience, she was truly a blank slate in that aspect, what should she do?
Could she really let go of this opportunity? It was the first time she was so close to appearing on television, standing under the spotlight, and if she participated, it would be a huge step for her dream of becoming a big star!
But...
“It's just pretending to be in a sweet relationship?! I'll just watch some idol dramas!”
Gritting her teeth, Ichika thought, replying to her manager:
【Yes! Please definitely give me this chance, I beg you!】
Just as Ichika was thinking about how she should brush up on her dating knowledge to deal with a possible interview, her manager's next words made Ichika dumbfounded:
【Right, the program team's idea for this ordinary people dating segment is to film the daily life of real couples, the first season's program effect was too exaggerated, it needs to be balanced, this... Ichika, you're okay with that, right?】
“Real. Real couple?!！”
Holding her phone, Ichika's eyes were full of disbelief, wasn't it just a matter of pretending, putting on a show? Why suddenly require a real couple?!
She hasn't even dated, where would she find a real partner?!
She's grown up, even the most hands she've held with boys have been Nakano Yu's! She couldn't possibly ask Yu to go with her...
As she thought, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to Ichika.
She brought up a photo of Nakano Yu and Nino in her phone, her eyes sparkling, not sure what she was thinking.
After a while, Ichika replied to her manager's chat:
【I'll bring my lover with me.】
【Good! We'll wait for the program team's notification for the rest, come on, Ichika-chan, seize this opportunity!】
......
Night fell, but tonight's night was unbearably hot, even the evening breeze was scorching.
On the street, a boy in a white short-sleeved T-shirt was walking, his eyes looking around, as if searching for something.
If there were passersby, they would definitely be puzzled as to why someone would be wandering the streets so late.
But unfortunately, it was too hot tonight, so hot that the fish in the pond were all poking their round heads out of the water, there wouldn't be anyone on the street.
What about that boy?
Needless to say, the boy was Nakano Yu.
At this time, Nakano Yu had already run out of the house, with only one purpose in mind, to find the god who appeared in this world just a moment ago!
It's just that Nakano Yu had been out for quite a while, but he hadn't even seen the shadow of the god who didn't belong, not even a hint of his presence.
If it were any other Nakano Yu, he might have gone home after not finding him, but this was the god who didn't belong!
That was a shortcut to becoming stronger! It was something he'd been waiting for for almost ten years!
Nakano Yu always felt that he wasn't a real slayer of gods, even though he had the power of gods, was blessed by gods, and hated by them, he never killed a god with his own hands!
Never having killed a god was a regret for Nakano Yu, of course he wouldn't easily give up.
“It felt like he was over there just now?”
With a light leap, Nakano Yu jumped onto the top of a tall building, sat down, and muttered to himself.
The slightly hot evening breeze blew on the boy's cheeks, but Nakano Yu didn't mind it.
“Pata! Pata!”
Just then, a sound of wooden clogs hitting the ground reached Nakano Yu's ears.
Sensing something was wrong, Nakano Yu just frowned, waved his hand, and the holy sword, Jua Yuuzu, appeared, slashing a beam of light towards the distance behind Nakano Yu.
The air in the distance began to warp under the terror of this sword, a thick black smoke filled the air, and then a figure slowly emerged from the transparent state.
The figure was tall and slender, wearing a deep purple kimono, her white hair, like moonlight, was curved behind her in a strange way.
“What terrifying insight, even Mirror Flower Water Moon couldn't escape your perception?”
The person sighed, squinting at Nakano Yu's back, secretly terrified in her heart.
“Nura Rikuo, why are you here?”
Nakano Yu didn't even need to turn around, he could determine the person's identity just by the scent.
It was none other than the young master of the Nura Clan, Nura Rikuo, who had one-quarter of the bloodline of the Nura Rikuo!
Actually, at first, Nakano Yu thought it was Nura Rikuo behind him, but after careful perception, he discovered that the demonic aura was extremely vibrant, while he had seen Nura Rikuo, the aura was decaying, like twilight, it would eventually fall, but it was still clinging to the last embers of its heat.
But, Nura Rikuo can actually activate demonization, he remembered that Nura Rikuo was still human when dealing with the Old Rat, was it because of the Bull Demon?
While thinking, Nura Rikuo had already sat down next to Nakano Yu.
“The moon tonight is wrong.”
As soon as he sat down, Nura Rikuo suddenly spoke, attracting Nakano Yu's attention.
Nura Rikuo raised his hand, conjured a bowl of wine with demon energy, took a gulp, and explained:
“The moon tonight... is very weak, it's like something is suppressing it.”
......
If nothing goes wrong, it will be launched tonight!
