Crossover Anime: How Did I Become Iruma-kun?

Although it was an a cappella performance with simple accompaniment, all the demons felt that this was the most perfect way to sing, and that it needed no further embellishment.

If there are any problems, it's Iruma's responsibility to discover and fix them; they simply don't have that kind of ability, nor are they qualified to offer suggestions.

Compared to such a genius, all other fighting techniques pale in comparison.

The crowd, snapping out of their reverie from the song, began to applaud, momentarily forgetting where they were.

Maru, too, let out a long breath to calm herself, then pushed up her glasses: "This song of inspiration is quite good, what should we name it?"

"A song of love for you~"

Iruma didn't hesitate to say the song title. For her, it would have been better to just use the song title from the world of wishing. But now it gave her a Charlotte's Trouble feeling, as if she were being illuminated by their light in another world.

After listening, Caroline nodded: "Hmm, a very nice name."

The song title itself perfectly encapsulates the entire song's content; the gentle yet melancholic lyrics are a perfect match for the name.

She couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Is this what a true genius is? She had even prepared encouraging words.

From being someone I'd never heard of and who couldn't sing a few days ago to becoming a superstar renowned throughout the demon world, Iruma's rise was far too easy. Compared to him, hard work seemed utterly worthless in the face of genius.

The record store owner, regaining his senses, immediately seized the opportunity and cleverly approached Maru, saying, "Why don't we take advantage of Miss Jimel's current inspiration and record this song directly? What do you think, Ms. Maru?"

"Our profit margin can be driven even lower than the market price!"

It was less of an inquiry and more of a plea to Maru, after all, there were so many record companies, but there was only one genius like Himmel in the entire Demon World.

If the other party doesn't want to collaborate on recording a song, it's like handing over an inexhaustible gold mine to someone else. Watching others make big money is really infuriating.

Maru was naturally extremely pleased with herself for having such a humble record company boss, after all, this genius was firmly in her grasp.

Maru adjusted her glasses, feigning reluctance: "Alas, please allow me to ask Miss Kimmel's opinion first."

The boss nodded repeatedly: "Of course, we will immediately contact clothing stores and producers to choose suitable clothes for Jimmy's cover and promotional posters!"

Maru didn't reply, but went directly to Iruma and asked, "Do you need to record tonight, or do you want to have a few more days to polish it?"

"But the record company boss is right. Today's inspiration and state of mind are not so easy to replicate. What do you think, Kimmel?"

In Maru's opinion, this song is flawless and could be released as a clean track. Adding background music would be superfluous and would only negatively impact the listener's experience.

He himself was merely there to go through the motions and let them know who Jimmy worked for.

Iruma was naturally aware of their little scheme, but she simply nodded and said gently, "My songs are all inspired by my own feelings, and I think we can start recording them now. As for the rest, I'll leave it all to Miss Mary."

Iruma never mentioned money or any material demands. In their eyes, she was like a peerless genius who had no desires and simply pursued her hobbies. Money and fame were worthless to her.

But such a super genius was discovered by Maru, who held Chrome. Who wouldn't be envious?

"Ok."

Maru immediately turned her head and nodded to the boss, indicating that Iruma had agreed.

"Many thanks!"

The boss bowed deeply in gratitude, then turned to his employees and instructed them, "Don't you dare hold Miss Kimmel back!"

"The photography and editing departments, get ready! It has to be perfect, absolutely perfect!"

"Yes! Boss!"

"The costume department should also purchase or customize clothes suitable for Miss Kimmel's song!"

"No need for that."

Iruma then slowly stood up and refused the other party's request to buy her clothes. After all, she couldn't take them home, otherwise Sullivan would probably have another hobby.

"Snapped!"

As she snapped her fingers, her clothes changed again, transforming from the white Macross outfit into the one worn by the heroine of Guilty Crown, albeit completely altered to cover her completely, offering neither much nor little fan service.

Why did the plot of Chapter 75 go off track?

The phoenix-like garment once again shocked the demons, who admired Iruma's aesthetic sense, which was always top-notch.

As the music video was being filmed, Iruma completed each take in one go. Although the production team knew they would be working all night again, they were incredibly excited to witness Ruki Mel's live song production – it was truly breathtaking.

"Hey! Did you record the video?!"

"Oh, I recorded it."

"Posting this online will definitely cause a traffic explosion!"

"Only with Miss Kimmel and Ms. Maru's permission."

"That's true. We'll ask them later. After all, this can give them more exposure."

Once outside the company, Iruma finally spoke: "Let's release the new song next month around this time, or you can set a date, Ms. Maru, and I'll finish producing it quickly. Alternatively, we can record it directly on the 1st, saving me the trouble of running around."

Maru couldn't help but tap her on the head and said, "There's only a little over a week left until the first of next month. You can't release songs too quickly. You have to whet the appetites of your fans. Besides, even if you create every day, your creative inspiration won't run out, right?"

"That's true, but singing new songs every day is such a hassle, and having to write the scores myself is just too much trouble. I couldn't handle it~~~-"

"Singing one song a month is just you not wanting to produce them. I would suggest you sing two songs a month. After all, with the concert and this song, you can create three songs in just two days. You need to keep your inspiration flowing!"

"Ugh, this is so troublesome. Back then, I had to create songs because I was trying to save the day. Now that I don't need to save the day, I might as well relax and get some sleep."

"Don't get lazy, big star! Don't bury your talent. The fierce battle is the biggest stage to show your skills!"

"And you and Chrome have an advertisement the day after tomorrow, I'll arrange the time for you."

"Ugh, this is so troublesome."

"Don't complain to me. Chrome didn't complain. You must love the profession of the Fierce Fighter as much as she does!"

Caroline chimed in, "That's right. Although you are indeed a genius, I will strictly teach you the professional skills of the Evil Fighter. Don't even think about slacking off and sleeping in."

But Iruma still asked in confusion, "Miss Maru, why was my identity as a villainous fighter registered so quickly back then???"

"Ahem!" Maru coughed, trying to hide his embarrassment: "Well, that's because, because people from the Fierce Battle Gathering happened to be there that day, so I registered all your information on the spot."

Maru was too embarrassed to admit that he immediately arranged for his employees to register and draft contracts as quickly as possible after hearing her first song.

Seeing the guilty look on her face, Iruma was too embarrassed to expose her, so he could only spread his wings and fly away.

Maru and Chrome, however, still had many tasks to be assigned, so they went directly to the company.

The record store owner, who hadn't closed the door, overheard the conversation and almost made a sound that gave him away. He hadn't expected that songwriting was such a commonplace thing for Jimmy.

And most importantly, these songs can be created anytime, anywhere. Such a terrifying genius, yet he is too lazy to make himself more dazzling. Iruma's tone is listless, as if he has no desire to go at all.

There's also crucial, super-new information: Kimmel wasn't the hidden villain Ruth at all, but rather a beautiful girl who was chosen to appear temporarily to save her friend's life. Otherwise, she would never have shown up, and then she was tricked and deceived by Maru into signing a contract.

"We can sell this information to those companies for a high price, and it won't affect our cooperative relationship. It's a win-win situation!"

Everyone in the entertainment industry knows that all the evil companies are frantically searching for information about Kimmel, and some villains have even offered high prices for it.

But the other party seemed to have appeared out of thin air, and no records could be found at all.

So it really was a coincidence that they appeared out of nowhere, and that they were just trying to help their friend out, but ended up getting themselves into trouble.

As soon as Iruma got home, he was pestered by Sullivan and Opera, who immediately asked, "Tell Grandpa what you did today!"

"Lord Iruma came home late today too~"

Seeing the two of them looking like they were waiting to see what happened, Iruma could only scratch his head helplessly, unable to think of any excuse, and could only honestly say:

"I went to shoot a commercial and record a song today, hahaha."

"Oh, oh, oh, what kind of advertisement is it? What's it called? Tell Grandpa quickly!!!"

Faced with Sullivan's relentless attacks, Iruma could only tell him his name; as for the release date of the next song, he had no idea.

After he returned to his room to sleep, Sullivan immediately called his company agent to address the problem at its source.

"Hey, Ms. Maru"

"Understood, Lord Sullivan. Lord Iruma's album and promotional merchandise will arrive tomorrow morning!"

"Thank you very much~"

"No problem at all!"

After receiving Maru's affirmative reply, he began to look forward to the merchandise to be released tomorrow. After all, it was merchandise for his grandson, so it was impossible not to be excited.

The next two days were unusually peaceful for Iruma, which made him realize that if he followed the plot, he shouldn't be fighting Rukia.

I've been fooled!

? ! ! ! !

When Iruma finally realized what was happening, he discovered that he had completely gone astray. Because he had his own consciousness and could not simply follow the plot like a robot, time and events had changed.

He should have been enjoying his days of eating, drinking, and having fun, but now his schedule is packed with mysterious and fierce fighters. He goes to school during the day and works at night, practically squeezing every last drop of his time out of him.

In particular, the video of her playing the piano, which was secretly recorded, achieved an astonishing number of views online, breaking records once again.

However, the company wanted him to be even more diligent. If it weren't for Iruma's strong insistence, Maru might have even been scheduled to participate in the morning activities.

Especially when asked if she could retire, I was almost killed by Maru's gaze and voice. She practically dragged me to the company for an incredibly long, company-wide persuasion session.
