Chapter 348 - 341: Elven Diva"Guren no Yumiya."
A song brought into this world by Haruto.
Currently used as the opening theme of Attack on Titan Season 1. Also widely acknowledged online as the representative anthem of Attack on Titan. And now, on the streets of Akihabara, a young girl performing a street show was singing that very song.
Although she looked a bit youthful, both her singing technique and vocal quality were completely beyond what her appearance would suggest.
She managed to fully convey the grandeur of the song, even stirring up a sense of hot-blooded excitement in the crowd.
Haruto couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration.
Then he glanced at the setup around the girl.
She was seated behind an electronic keyboard, singing while playing, occasionally adjusting the tuning as well.
Beside the keyboard was a support banner,
detailing information about the girl and the purpose of her activity.
She was a singer named "ARISA."
Haruto had a bit of an impression of her.
A recently trending internet singer known for her online activity. She didn't seem to have participated in any variety shows or other media.
Haruto didn't know the details, but the Foundation's agency had apparently tried to contact her.
He wasn't sure what came of that.
But one thing he did remember—this girl wasn't from the main world.
She was originally from Academy City.
After Academy City integrated into the main world and connected to the internet, this girl started her online presence here. And now, the event she was participating in and promoting through this street performance was precisely for the Attack on Titan movie.
Haruto found this quite the coincidence.
Just yesterday, his editor had mentioned this event—and now, while casually wandering around, he happened to stumble upon it.
At this moment, the performance ended.
The girl "ARISA" stood up and offered a slight bow to the surrounding pedestrians.
Then she smiled and chatted a bit with the crowd.
Mostly promotional talk.
She also handed out some flyers.
Haruto casually took one.
Whether in appearance or in singing, this girl was practically flawless. Combined with her existing fame, she was very likely to become one of the final three chosen performers.
As she handed Haruto a flyer, she paused slightly.
So handsome...
After all, this was the perfect body evolved from the Blacklight virus.
Haruto's looks could dazzle people with just a single glance. Not to mention the transcendent, calming aura he naturally gave off.
The girl froze for a moment and suddenly felt he looked very familiar.
But as she snapped out of it and looked again, the person had already vanished.
Her cheeks turned slightly red.
She lightly patted her own face.
"Geez, what am I even thinking? Why am I getting all dreamy like that? But he really does look familiar..."
As she murmured to herself, a flash of insight struck her.
She hurriedly took out her phone to check.
Haruto's photo appeared on the screen.
Since she was participating in the Attack on Titan movie promotion, of course she had done some background re
Or take a gentler approach?
After all, she was an intelligent anomaly capable of communication—containment might not need to be forceful.
Thinking of a gentle approach, Haruto suddenly recalled—this Spirit girl from Date A Live...
was supposedly a yuri.
She had an extreme dislike for men and loved soft, cute girls—basically, a legendary yuri elf.
At that, Haruto's mouth twitched.
In that case, if he went in as he was, negotiations probably wouldn't go well. As for sending a female staff member from the Foundation...
Putting aside the fact that this yuri elf only liked high-spec girls—even just approaching her would be complicated.
Her ability was memetic in nature—it could interfere with perception.
He'd need to bring in the memetics department. An image of a "gender-swap potion" briefly flashed in Haruto's mind.
But he immediately and permanently erased that thought.
No way!
Absolutely not!
I'd rather die, jump from here, than ever drink a gender-swap potion!
...However, cross-dressing might be okay.
(T/N: Bro be leveling up his degenerate level.)
Haruto ducked into a nearby alley.
Then, using control over his own cells, he lengthened his hair. In no time, his neat short hair became waist-length.
Though it was plain black, it gleamed like silk.
Haruto casually pulled a hairband from his Kamui Space and tied it up.
After helping the girls at home dress up so often, he'd gotten quite good at this himself. After lengthening his hair, he also subtly altered his facial features.
Haruto's appearance was already the type that transcended gender.
With just minor tweaks, he became the kind of beauty that made it hard to look away. He compressed his height to 172 cm and concealed his Adam's apple.
Even without a mirror, Haruto knew his current appearance had to be a flawless beauty of the opposite sex.
Only one problem remained: his clothes.
He had some women's outfits in Kamui Space.
Haruto picked out a casual outfit belonging to Tohru and put it on.
His current physique was pretty similar to hers anyway.
Though... one thing did trouble him.
Tohru was a D-cup.
Haruto, on the other hand...
Nope. Not happening. Absolutely not!
After thinking for a moment, Haruto pulled out two steamed buns from Kamui Space and stuffed them inside his top.
