FATE: Target of Grand Master

"That means this is a world where idols reign supreme. Once a talent scout discovers a promising idol, they must be made into one. Otherwise, the laws of this world will be activated, and no matter how forceful or despicable the means, they will be forced to compromise."

After listening to Xia Yan's summary, Miss He nodded solemnly.

"Miss Klein, is this really not a world you've conjured up in your imagination?"

Xia Yan knew very well that this Miss Klein was usually quite normal, but once it came to anything related to "idols," she would immediately turn into a crazy, brainless fan.

Miss Klein guiltily averted her gaze and said weakly, in a voice softer than a mosquito's buzz, "Probably, maybe, it shouldn't be."

"Then at least have some confidence," Xia Yan couldn't help but complain.

"Anyway, that's the situation, so if you want to get rid of those endless talent scouts, Euryale, you have to become an idol!"

Miss Klein pointed her long index finger at Euryale.

"I refuse."

Euryale sat on the bench, her face resting on her hand, looking unwilling.

"Why?" Miss Klein asked.

"I am a goddess, and I should be worthy of the admiration and praise of all people. I will not do what idols do, singing and dancing to gain the attention of fans."

The situation became awkward for a moment.

Just then, the long-awaited message box finally appeared in front of Xia Yan.

[Outpost Mission: Your assigned Servant must become the number one ranked idol.]

I knew it!

After reading the mission information, Xia Yan sighed helplessly and asked, "Miss Klein, does it have to be Euryale who becomes the idol? I have several other handsome men and beautiful women here."

Miss Klein shook her head: "Unfortunately, I can sense that among your Servants, only Euryale has the potential to become an idol."

Xia Yan scratched his head, walked over to Euryale, squatted down, and lined up with Euryale's eyes.

"Eureka, do you remember when I told you you had the potential to be an idol? I didn't mean for you to do things you don't want to do just to please your fans, but rather I hoped you could showcase yourself on a bigger stage. I think many people will genuinely love your singing. The reverence people have for a deity and the love they have for their idols are completely different. I think you should give it a try."

"Xia Yan, will you come to see my performance?"

Yuri Ellie actually knew that she was the only one who could solve the current predicament. One of the main reasons she was unwilling to become an idol was that she did not want to leave Xia Yan's side.

Sensing Euryale's worry, Xia Yan said, "I will not only watch your performances, but I also plan to become your manager and turn you into the number one idol!"

"Why?"

Yuri Ellie never expected that Xia Yan would be willing to become her manager. Wouldn't that mean they could use his position to their advantage and be together openly?

"Is that so? Since you've planned so far ahead, Xia Yan, I'll go along with it."

Just as Euryale changed her attitude, a shimmering beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping her.

The light quickly dissipated. Euryale herself did not feel anything unusual, but the talent scouts surrounding Xia Yan and the others all stopped what they were doing and looked at Euryale with a reverent gaze.

"Let's raise a salute to the birth of the last idol!"

It's unclear which of the talent scouts said this, but all the talent scouts pulled out their pistols and fired into the sky.

Bang bang bang!

A barrage of gunfire erupted, sounding almost like a celebratory cannon salute.

After emptying their pistols, the talent scouts seemed to regain their senses and began to disperse on their own. Some even said encouraging words to Euryale before leaving, such as "We look forward to your performance."

Seeing this unbelievable scene, Xia Yan finally became convinced that this world was indeed a world with strange laws.

Is there really a world where playing cards is the supreme rule?

By the way, those talent scouts just now mentioned "the last idol," which means there are other idols in this world. Since the requirement of the base mission is to become the number one idol in popularity, we must first find out who our competitors are.

"Miss Klein, time was short just now, and I have a few more questions I'd like to ask you."

Miss He said, "I know you must still have many questions. This place is too conspicuous. Let's go to my residence to talk."

Xia Yan and the others had no objections and followed Miss He to a very ordinary single apartment.

Upon entering the apartment, Xia Yan and the others saw many different but very beautiful clothes neatly hung on hangers.

As expected of Chaldea's chief tailor, each of these clothes is an extremely exquisite spirit garment.

In stark contrast to these gorgeous spirit costumes are the messy fabrics, discarded design drafts, fashion magazines from various countries, and empty wine bottles scattered on the table and floor.

"Sorry, this is also my studio, so it's a bit messy. Please make yourselves at home."

Miss He tidied up somewhat awkwardly and finally managed to make room for a few chairs.

"Miss Klein, you don't need to do that. Let's get down to business."

Miss He, who had finally made the living room presentable, smoothed her slightly messy hair and sat down in her favorite office chair.

"Ah, okay. Unknown Master, you can ask me any questions you have."

Xia Yan then realized that he hadn't said his name yet.

"My name is Xia Yan. I want to know how many idols there are in this world?"

"You've got the core of it right away. Don't worry, there aren't many, only 12 in total, including Euryale."

Xia Yan breathed a sigh of relief. If there were hundreds or thousands of idols, he didn't know how long he would have to stay in this stronghold.

"To be honest, Miss Klein, we're not familiar with the idol system at all. Could you give us some guidance on how to cultivate Euryale into the number one idol?"

As a sports student, Xia Yan is unfamiliar with the idol industry, so he will need to seek help from outsiders to complete the base mission.

"Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking too. First of all, we must divide the work and cooperate as a professional agency. Our main idol will naturally be Euryale. In addition, we need a producer/manager, assistants, logistics staff, bodyguards, and other personnel."

Xia Yan thought for a moment and then arranged, "I'll be the producer and agent. Musashi will be the assistant, Miss Klein will handle the logistics, Cú Chulainn will be the bodyguard, and as for Morgan..."

"I'll just be the producer's wife," Morgan replied naturally.

"No!"

Euryale immediately refused.

"Shouldn't secretly dating one's manager be an idol's privilege?"

"Foolish. It's because there are too many people with your mindset that this industry is so chaotic."

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Xia Yan quickly asked Miss He if there were any suitable positions for a strong woman like Morgan.

Miss Tsuru thought for a moment: "The agency is still short of a president. I originally thought you, Master, should be the one, but it would be better to have a full-time president."

The president? He certainly matches Morgan's temperament well.

"I accept the position of president."

Morgan nodded in agreement, thinking to himself that the president was the most powerful person in the firm.

So whether it's Xia Yan, the manager, or Yuri Ellie, the idol they promote, they are both their subordinates and must obey their commands.

"Well then, Euryale, go downstairs and run ten laps first."

"Hey, you can't just abuse your power like this by making you the company president!"
