The song by the duo of Isis-san and Lillywood-san started. Just as Alicesan and Fate-san have praised her, Lillywood-san is very good at
singing. Her resonant voice may be especially suited to this kind of
singing.
However, Lillywood-san seemed to be supporting Isis-san, singing in a
way that complemented Isis-san rather than leading the song on her
own.
Also, Isis-san being a very good singer… isn't something I could say. Of
course, her voice was beautiful and I think she was a better singer than
the usual singers back in my world. But if we put aside Shiro-san,
Chronois-san and Life-san out of the question, Laguna-san and the
others were better than her in terms of singing ability.
However… I say it, however. Even though the blue team still hadn't even
appeared yet, I'm already on the verge of raising the red flag.
I mean… The sight of Isis-san holding the microphone with both hands,
singing as hard as she can was just too precious… I can't stop these
overflowing thoughts that Isis-san should win now.
Anyway, she's just too cute. I can feel that she is trying very hard, which
makes her not-so-good singing stand out even more.
From a visual standpoint, her performance looked by far the best of all.
And after Isis-san finished singing, there was a solid round of
applause… I don't know if these people are heartless or not, but I feel
like a lot of people were distancing themselves from the stage. Putting
them aside, Isis-san seems to be happy.
"Hmmm, it was a pretty good song, isn't it? Dearth King didn't seem to
have much experience singing, but thanks to World King's support, I
think their song balance was good."
"You're right. And this time, the judge is Kaito-san. Kaito-san had always
been a kind person, but he had always been especially spoiling Kurosan and Isis-san, so I guess a half-hearted song by their opponent
wouldn't gain them a win. Incidentally, Kaito-san is harsh towards me,
but I wonder why!? Even though this lover of his is so cute!!!?"
"…Well, it's Shall-tan after all, so it's fine."
"Fate-san, you're harsh to me too!?"
Well, putting aside if I'm spoiling or harsh with someone, it's true that a
half-hearted song wouldn't be able to compete with Isis-san and
Lillywood-san's angelic song.
"Now then, as for the Blue Team… Will she be able to make 100 friends?
No, buddy, no, no, she's someone who had "friends that could easily go
over 100000″! Would she sweep this battle with her overwhelming
charisma? The First-Generation Fairy King! Raz-san!"
[Present!]
"And her partner is the current emperor of the historic Archlesia
Empire! Her hobbies are riding horses and playing chess. She's been
getting more human-like lately, which is a big plus in Alice-chan's book!
Chris-san!"
Raz-san and Chris-san? That's an unexpected pairing. No, to begin with,
Raz-san, with her monstrous communipower, she would probably get
along with anyone…
Speaking of which, didn't Chris-san know Kuro? If that's the case, it's no
wonder if she's friends with Raz-san, who's part of Kuro's family.
[Chris-san! Let's do our best together!]
[Fufu… Yes, let's do our best.]
The two of them exchanged a few words on the stage… Chris-san, who
was looking at Raz-san as she tightly clenched both of her fists, had a
somewhat gentle smile on her face, making me see how close they
were.
Thereupon, they started to sing a cheerful song. Coincidentally, just like
Isis-san and Lillywood-san, Raz-san was the main singer while Chrissan was supporting her.
Raz-san moved her small body as much as she could, wholeheartedly
singing while jumping around on the stage. This was also surprisingly
cute.
"This is quite the great performance, isn't it? The pop tune suits Razsan's voice. Chris is great too. She has a steady, exemplary voice."
"In terms of level, this is also a very close match. What a good match,
this is. Now then, which flag will Kai-chan raise?"
It's difficult to judge the winner here. An unexpected cuteness
showdown… Isis-san's straightforward performance conveyed her
earnestness. Raz-san's cheerful and innocent performance was
adorable.
It's hard to decide. This is the most difficult match to judge so far.
Pondering for a long time… I raised the flag of the winning team.
"And the flag Kaito-san raised is… red! And thus, this is Isis-san and
Lillywood-san team's win! Incidentally, Kaito-san, may I ask why?"
"…Errr, to be honest, it was really hard for me to decide. Both teams
were wonderful. Isis-san and Raz-san's singing were especially good.
However, there was a slight difference between the supports,
Lillywood-san and Chris-san. Chris-san sang really great, but Lillywoodsan was better than her, so that was the reason why they won."
"I see, thank you very much! Alice-chan was surprised to get a
surprisingly straightforward reason."
"…Oi."
In any case, the duo of Isis-san and Lillywood-san will move on to the
second round. It was a shame for Raz-san and Chris-san though. This
match is a very close call, and they may have a good chance of winning
against another opponent.
After that, the first round of the Tag-team Karaoke Battle went
smoothly. The Earth team of Aoi-chan and Hina-chan sang a nostalgic
song, beating the siblings team of Amalie-san and Orchid-san.
The team of Lilia-san and Sieg-san, who performed an orthodox
performance with a voice that isn't that strong, but stable, won against
the couple team of Acht and Eva.
And in a surprising twist, Anima and Caraway-san teamed up to make
an appearance… When did they become so close with each other?
The two of them weren't crazy good, but they sang powerfully and
defeated the twins team of Eta and Theta to advance to the second
round.
As for Eta and Theta's team, ummm, how should I say this… Eta sang
pretty great, but Theta's pitch wasn't that great at it, as if she wasn't
used to singing.
Well, it was still a very listenable song compared to the combination of
Chronois-san and Life-san…
The shocking thing was that… for some reason, Illness-san showed up
with Pandora-san. Were they one of those leftover pairings? Anyway, it
was a surprising team up. Moreover, they were pretty much in sync
with each other, beautifully winning against their opponent…
And so, the first round proceeded, and it's finally the last battle of the
first round. First to appear as the red team was the husband and wife
duo of Rei-san and Fia-san.
After this duo beautifully sang a duet, the final duo finally took the
stage.
"Now then, the final duo of the first round is… me! Alice-chan and…!"
"…Can we abstain the match?"
"Hey!? Fate-san, it hasn't even started yet! Please don your best!"
"…Troublesome."
Yes, it was the combination of Alice and Fate-san, who had been doing
the live commentary and analysis up to this point.
This… How should I describe this? Alice is definitely an outrageously
good singer. I think it's safe to say that she is a candidate for the
championship, but the problem is Fate-san, who is completely
unmotivated.
This is team Karaoke, so no matter how good Alice is, if Fate-san doesn't
sing, she won't win.
Looking at Fate-san who was lazily slacking off on her flying cushion,
Alice seemed to be thinking about something, before putting down her
microphone and whispered something to Fate-san.
[…Eh? Seriously? That's going to happen?]
[Yes. Definitely.]
[…H- Hmmm… Well then, how about…]
Fate-san, who showed some reaction to what I told her, thought for a
moment, then raised one finger. However, Alice shook her head and
rejected Fate-san.
Thereupon, Fate-san shook her head too, and this time she held up two
fingers. Alice shook her head again, and this time, she held up four
fingers.
…They seemed to be negotiating something, but finally agreed to
something when both of them held up three fingers. Fate-san then got
off her cushion and grabbed the microphone.
"It can't be helped. Well then, I guess I'll get serious for a bit…"
"Ohh, this is rare. It's been tens of thousands of years since Fate-san's
been serious on something, hasn't it?"
"…No, after I recently got involved with Kai-chan, Shallow Vernal-sama
instructed me to get serious for the first time in 20000 years…"
"…The fact that you only got serious after 20000 years is amazing."
Apparently, Fate-san became motivated. Fate-san, who has never been
serious at all, except when something is related to Shiro-san, declared
that she'll get serious.
Rather, 20000 years, she said… I don't know if I should say it's to be
expected of Fate-san or not but… anyway, it seems like I could look
forward to their performance.
Dear Mom, Dad——– The two Supreme Gods had devastating singing
voices, but what about Fate-san? Is she going to be good enough to be
Alice's choice as her partner? Even so, for Alice to make even that Fatesan to be that motivated——— I wonder what kind of conditions she
gave her?
