Tsumugi: Uwah, you’re all looking so good in the outfits~! You all look really cool!
Arashi: Ufufu. Rather than cool, I’d prefer to be called “lovely” or “cute”, though… But well, thanks for the compliment ♪
Tsukasa: Yes! I am in high spirits, to be wearing such clothes that are befitting of “Knights”!
Ritsu: Zzz...♪
Tsukasa: Hey now, Ritsu-senpai! Please don’t fall asleep at every opportunity! Or rather, why haven’t you gotten changed yet?
Well, I suppose the sunlight is pretty strong around this time. I could call it a miracle that you made it in time for our meeting in the first place.
But you can’t keep sleeping. Please wake up and get changed.
Ritsu: Don’t shake me, you’re disturbing my sleep~. Yaawn… I’m too tired, so help me get changed, okay?
Arashi: Oh geez, you’re like a troublesome child. Come on, Ritsu-chan, raise your arms like you’re going “banza~i”. Onee-chan is going to change your clothes for you ♪
Makoto: A-Aoba-senpai! Save me~!
Tsumugi: What’s the matter, Yuuki-kun? ...Hahaa, is Sena-kun causing trouble for you again?
Sena: Haa? That’s inexcusable! I was only telling Yuu-kun that I want to enjoy him from up close!
Tsumugi: Well, of course he’d run away from that. In any case, the outfit suits you well, too, Sena-kun~ ♪
Izumi: Who do you think I am? Of course it suits me~. Anyway, Yuu-kun? Where’s Yuu-kun!?
Tsumugi: Sena-kun, please calm down~. It seems Ritsu-kun is done changing, too, so let’s start distributing the roles.
First, I’d like for Narukami-kun and Sena-kun to be in charge of touting.
Arashi: Ufufu, leave it to us. Aah, but I won’t be able to give explanations for the books, is that okay?
Tsumugi: Yes. That kind of thing is the job of the staff, so don’t worry~. I’m sorry for making you do the work of a crowd puller, though.
Arashi: Carrying out the role that was requested of me is also the job of a model, so I’ll put my experience to good use and attract a lot of customers ♪
Izumi: Ehh~... Why do I have to work with Naru-kun? I don’t really want to be treated like I’m in a set with him too much, you know?
Of course it makes sense since we’ll be attracting customers. But if it’s models you need, there’s also Yuu-kun.
Yuu-kun, let’s work together...♪
Tsumugi: Ah, I’m sorry. I was thinking of working together with Yuuki-kun myself.
It seems there’s a book he is looking for, so I thought I’d accompany him just in case we need to negotiate.
Of course, I don’t mind if Yuuki-kun wants to help Sena-kun with his work.
Makoto: No, no! I want to work with Aoba-senpai!
Izumi: Yuu-ku~n? I must have misheard things.
Yuu-kun must be embarrassed about wanting to work with me, and that’s why he said “Aoba” on purpose, right?
Arashi: Izumi-chan, if you’re too obstinate, he’ll really start to hate you. Come on now, you always say you do your work perfectly, right?
Let’s do a good job on our work so Yuuki-kun’s impression of you improves, okay?
Izumi: Grr, even though you’re just Naru-kun, you’re strangely good at handling me…
Aah geez, I get it. Since I’ll do it, I’ll do it perfectly. Naru-kun, don’t slack off either even though this job’s a pain.
Arashi: Yeah, yeah. I’ll do it flawlessly.
Tsukasa: Um, excuse me? What shall I and Ritsu-senpai be doing?
The order was to stand around in these outfits, but unlike Narukami-senpai and Sena-senpai, we aren’t experienced as models.
Tsumugi: Let’s see~. I was thinking of asking you two to read aloud for the children. Do you have experience in that?
Tsukasa: No, I don’t. Also, Ritsu-senpai has been yawning as if he doesn’t have the same motivation as the person who changed his clothes, so I think we have a bigger problem than reading aloud.
Tsumugi: In that case, I’ll do it. How about the two of you walk around the area together?
You both look as cool as Sena-kun and Narukami-kun after all~. I’m sure you’ll be able to attract customers just by walking around and advertising ♪
Tsukasa: I-I see. Neither me or Ritsu-senpai are models, but being told that does flatter my self-esteem ♪
Understood. I, Suou Tsukasa… will fulfill my duty to the best of my abilities!
Tsumugi: Lastly, I’d like for Anzu-chan to walk around with me and Yuuki-kun. Fufu, “Leave it to me”, you say? You’re so reliable~ ♪
With a lot of good fortune, we were able to make this future a reality.
Even if it’s in the middle of work, if you see a book that interests you, feel free to pick it up.
Maybe that book could end up changing your future.
If you could come to learn the appeal of books, I’d be incredibly happy ♪
