FATE: Target of Grand Master

"Really?" Morgan was still somewhat skeptical.

"Really, why would I lie to you?"

As Xia Yan spoke, he patted Morgan's head.

Normally, Morgan would definitely say that Xia Yan was overstepping his bounds, but in the current situation, Morgan seemed a little shy, his face slightly red as he let Xia Yan rub his head.

Suddenly, all the theater lights focused on the stage, where Tamamo Cat appeared, dressed in a red and white striped waitress skirt and roller skates.

"Good evening, everyone. I'm so touched to see so many fans here to support me. So, let me perform the first song of the evening, 'Afternoon Tea of ​​the Beasts'!" (Don't ask, the author made up the name.)

As the upbeat music began, Tamamo Neko stood on the stage and danced to the rhythm. Her singing and dancing, combined with her sunny smile, instantly ignited the emotions of the fans in the audience.

"Kitty, I love you!"

"Kitty, please nibble on me gently!"

Even with a mindset of learning and observation, Xia Yan had to admit that Tamamo Cat's infectious charm was extremely strong, and even Xia Yan couldn't help but hum along.

After singing two songs, Tamamo Neko started interacting with the fans in the audience.

Xia Yan could sense that Tamamo Cat's interaction with the fans was very familiar, clearly indicating that she was no longer a newcomer as an idol.

After the interaction, Tamamo-no-Neko sang several more songs, and the performance ended quickly.

Subsequently, under the guidance of the staff, fans who were eligible to participate in the handshake event were arranged to go on stage one by one to shake hands with Tamamo Neko.

"Ah, the wonderful sensation of these paw pads—I could die happy!"

"I've decided not to wash my hands for a week, no, a month!"

Hearing the excited comments from the fans in front of him, Xia Yan also became very interested in Tamamo Cat's paws.

When it was finally Xia Yan's turn, Tamamo Cat showed an even more enthusiastic smile than before.

"Thank you for supporting the cat. Please place your hand on the cat's paw pads, and the cat's love will be transmitted to you through those pads."

After Xia Yan did as instructed, he immediately felt a warm touch from the two soft fleshy pads. How to describe it? Comfortable, as if his Ren and Du meridians had been opened.

Is this really the feeling you get from shaking hands?

"Okay, the cat's love has been conveyed to you. Thank you again for your support. The cat will continue to work hard!"

Xia Yan, having regained her senses, was already being led off the stage by the staff.

The theater wasn't too far from the villa, and after Morgan came out, Xia Yan and Morgan decided to walk back together.

"Xia Yan, did you feel a strange sense of comfort when you shook hands with him?"

Xia Yan nodded. Although the feeling was very comfortable, Xia Yan did feel something was off for a moment.

"This beast-eared girl isn't as innocent as she seems. When we shook hands just now, she secretly released a spell from her paw pads. Don't worry, that spell is harmless; it simply increases the target's comfort. Even I didn't expect that she could use such a small trick to increase her fans' favorability."

Xia Yan suddenly realized why he felt so comfortable earlier. It seemed that although he couldn't use magic to attack other opponents in this world, he could still use it to influence his fans.

In that case, Euryale doesn't feel guilty at all for singing with her naturally alluring voice.

Back at the villa, Xia Yan immediately told Euryale and Miss Crane about his discovery that day.

"I see, no wonder I feel so excited every time I see these idols."

Miss He seems to have found the reason for her obsession with her idol.

No, you're just obsessed. Even without the spell's enhancement, you'd still be like this.

Xia Yan silently complained to himself.

"We've also made some progress here."

Miss Tsuru said very seriously, "Eureka is indeed born to be an idol. Her singing voice can touch the soul. We just recorded a simple recording, and the effect is almost the same as the finished product. We didn't even need to do any auto-tuning."

After saying that, Miss Crane played the song that Euryale had just sung. Although it was just a cover song, it had a style that was no less than the original and was unique to Euryale.

After listening to the song, Euryale looked at Xia Yan with anticipation.

"It's amazing. How can I put it? I'm at a loss for words. All I can say is that this is a song that only Euryale could sing. It's going to be a huge hit."

Hearing Xia Yan's evaluation, Yuri hugged him happily, feeling that all her hard work learning about idols all afternoon was worth it.

"Cough...cough..."

Miss Tsuru cleared her throat and said, "One song isn't enough. We need to record at least three, and we also need to promote them on various platforms so that more people can hear them and thus accumulate more original fans. So starting tomorrow, Master Pro, your work will begin. You need to use all sorts of methods to promote Euryale's single!"

"Leave it to me."

Xia Yan clenched his fist.

"That's all for today, everyone get some rest."

Late at night, Xia Yan woke up needing to urinate and found that Miss He's studio was still lit. He gently pushed open the door and saw a white crane working diligently on a loom.

"ah!"

The white crane suddenly turned its head and saw Xia Yan standing at the door, which startled it so much that it cried out.

Xia Yan was also startled by the scream.

"Oh, it's YuP. Why aren't you asleep so late?"

The white crane immediately transformed back into Miss Crane's human form, pretending that what had just happened had never occurred.

"I was just passing by, Miss Tsuru, are you alright?"

Seeing the faint golden particles appearing beneath him, Xia Yan said with some worry.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm used to it, I just need to rest for a while."

Miss He quickly waved her hand.

Xia Yan was still a little worried, so he suggested, "How about we sign a temporary contract? That way, at least we can be sure we won't have to burn our spirit base to make the spirit garment."

Miss Tsuru paused for a moment, then her gaze softened: "So you've already seen through everything, O-P. Well, if I were to die before seeing my favorite idol on stage, I would definitely die with regrets."

A red light flashed on the Command Seal on the back of Xia Yan's hand, and the temporary contract was established.

"Oh, I feel like my magic power has been restored a lot. Is this what it feels like to have a Master? It's amazing!" Miss Tsuru exclaimed.

Xia Yan took out the gemstone sword and handed it to Miss He.

"This costume contains a lot of magical energy; you can use it for now."

"Oh? No, no. How can I accept such a valuable item?"

Xia Yan laughed and said, "Who said this was a gift for you? Take it, it's a loan. You're sewing a spirit garment for Euryale, right? This magic should be helpful. You'll have to pay me back after Euryale becomes the number one idol."

Xia Yan forcibly stuffed it into her hand, and Miss He no longer refused, saying, "Thank you. Now I owe you another favor."

Xia Yan waved his hand casually: "Eureka is also my Servant. Helping her is helping me. I should be the one thanking you."

Miss He shook her head firmly: "No, this is a debt of gratitude, and I will definitely repay it!"

"Get some rest, goodnight."

Xia Yan didn't want to dwell on this topic in the middle of the night, so he smiled and left the room.

"Okay, goodnight."
