The real villains?
Meanies? You mean...?
So you faked going missing to get the agency to cancel the concert?
Someone like me?
A solo show? Just you?
Sounds like you need a kind soul with both resources and ability.
But if you just disappear like that, your fans will worry.
Time to be honest?
You were hiding from the agency people just now, weren't you?
Just scared your lie won't hold up?
*Sigh* I guess nothing gets past you, Endmin. It's all because of those big meanies...
Yeah... They've had the agency in a chokehold for ages, working me to the bone every single day! And they're totally weaponizing Liino's fans just to scalp those concert tickets for crazy prices!
I can't live like this anymore! I'm done being their little puppet on a string, just doing whatever they demand. That's why I had to get out...
Don't you worry! I've had a master plan in the works for ages!
E-exactly! If I want to break free from the agency and make sure everyone can actually enjoy my performance, a totally DIY solo show is the only way to go!
(If a big shot like the Endmin gets behind me, this indie breakout is a guaranteed success!)
I'm going to do it — right here! A solo concert for anyone who just wants to vibe with the music!
You'll help me out, right, Endmin?
It feels pretty good to make a cute fan's day every once in a while. Alright, time to keep —
Eh?
Agency people? I was just...
Actually... I was never kidnapped! It was all a desperate escape from Brady Mining. They're the real villains pulling the strings behind everything...
(I've been waiting forever for a lucky break like this! A big-hearted person like the Endmin wouldn't mind me keeping a tiny bit of necessary secrecy, right?)
