Girls' Wishing Tree

Aya couldn't hold back her tears any longer: "Everyone... I... will show you the best Aya Maruyama at tomorrow's performance!"

"Come on." Gao Mu stretched out a hand to the girls, with the back of his hand facing upwards: "Everyone from PasPale, come on together."

The girls quickly put their hands on Gao Mu's hands and shouted "Come on!" together.

The members of PasPale took Aya Maruyama out of the shrine. Wakamiya Eve turned back and said to Gao Mu, "Although it's a bit presumptuous to ask this, can you come to the performance tomorrow? Aya will definitely be very happy if you can go."

Gao Mu had already refused an invitation to see PasPale perform at an idol festival. Tokyo residents, adept at reading the atmosphere, generally wouldn't invite him again under these circumstances. Only someone of mixed race like Wakamiya Eve would insist on making another request.

Looking at Eve's expectant eyes, Gao Mu sighed softly.

If she could go, she would, too. Right now, she was confined to the shrine grounds; if she ventured too far, her body would dissipate.

If I hadn't wasted my shining points on the lottery... the total number wouldn't be enough, and since I don't play the bass, it would be impossible for me to temporarily replace Bailu Qiansheng and participate in PasPale's rehearsal.

Gao Mu came up with a compromise: "How about this, I'll still be at the shrine. Before I go on stage, Eve will call me via video, and I'll watch everyone's performance via video."

Eve gave Gao Mu a thumbs up: "I'll go tell Xiao Cai now, she will definitely be very happy!"

Under Gao Mu's gaze, Eve ran away happily, her two little braids swinging lively with her steps.

"If there is a god, please make PasPale's performance a success." Gao Mu stood under the cherry blossom tree, looking at her own canopy. She felt Maruyama Aya's dedication to her idol, and also felt PasPale's belief and cohesion.

It's not for the points, but as the "Miko Takagi Sakura", I hope that my friends can have a great success in their performances.

Chapter 38: Dryad, Live and the Music Girl: 38, The Escaped Pink-Haired Girl

The day the idol festival opens.

Gao Mu rested for a few hours longer than before and also greeted Gong Yuan Xun.

Miyazono Kaoru happily said that she was awake for half an hour longer yesterday and had gone to the hospital for a follow-up check. There was no sign of recurrence of her illness. The doctor said that if she continued with rehabilitation training, there was hope that she would be able to stay awake for longer periods of time every day.

Gao Mu knew that it was because she had completed the task issued by the system that Gong Yuanxun's awake time was increased, but she did not tell Gong Yuanxun.

The next stage of Miyazono Kaoru's task is to practice her violin playing skills to an advanced level. If she completes this, Miyazono Kaoru will be able to wake up two more hours every day.

To reach an advanced level, it is not something that can be done in a short period of time - all mainstream violin techniques must be practiced to a proficient level, surpassing most professional violinists.

The bonds I have formed with the people in this world are indeed growing.

She also gradually adapted to the identity of Takagi Sakura, and even had less objections to Oyama Miharu.

Girls generally have weaker physical strength, and are also affected by debuffs for a few days every month.

But she is a tree demon!

She can easily lift a guitar speaker weighing dozens of kilograms with one hand, and her body is just an external appearance. Although she has five senses like ordinary people, she does not have the worries of other girls.

As for whether or not you can do something unspeakable...

She rubbed it a few times through her clothes and felt normal.

Even though she had been a cherry blossom tree for ten years, Gao Mu couldn't accept falling in love with a man, but if it was a girl...

You have to choose carefully, there is no need to rush.

There were still two hours before the performance, which was a good time to play the guitar. Thinking of this, she went to the training room to get her guitar out and prepared to practice some guitar to keep her hands in shape.

But before he could play for long, he saw a familiar figure walking up the steps and into the shrine.

Pink hair, bangs fixed with hairpins, timid eyes hidden by bangs, and sportswear of the same color as hair.

His movements were not as furtive as last time, but he still seemed timid.

"Yili, you're here!" Gao Mu walked over and shook Goto Yili's hand: "I knew you would come to get the ticket."

"Ah...that..." Goto Ichiri turned her head and looked at the ground on the side - she wanted to get the ticket when she went out, but before arriving at the shrine, she changed her mind and prepared to tell Gao Mu that she would not go to the show.

But before she could open her mouth, Gao Mu interrupted her.

A few minutes later, as they walked out of the shrine, Goto Ichiri was still a little dazed. For her, socializing was difficult, especially with strangers.

I communicated with Sakura Takagi, the shrine maiden of the Yokai Shrine, and she was quite relaxed.

I don’t know if it’s because the shrine maiden’s hair color is similar to hers, and she also learns guitar from her, or if the shrine maiden herself has an extremely strong affinity.

With the ticket in hand, Goto Ichiri tiptoed to the idol festival venue like a player who had sneaked into a game.

Fortunately, the queue for ticket checking was quite busy, and the other party didn't wait for her to speak. He just took a look at the ticket and handed her a plastic bag.

The ticket the miko gave her was for the first row, and the people around her were already sitting there. They all had cheering bands tied to their heads and held cheering sticks in their hands. Goto Ichiri also had these things. When she checked her ticket, the staff gave her a plastic bag with two cheering sticks and a cheering band in it.

The uncle sitting to the left of Goto Ichiri was wearing a jacket with many pockets, each with a PasPale cheering sticker on it. The girl sitting to her left wore two cheering bracelets in addition to the cheering belt that came with her ticket.

Goto Ichiri looked around and decided to tie the cheering band with "PasPale" on her head to look more sociable. She tied the cheering band very low, almost touching her upper eyelid, which made her feel a little safer.

After a while, the performance began and the members of PasPale walked onto the stage in their performance costumes.

It was already getting dark at this time.

Before going on stage, Wakamiya Eve called Gao Mu via video, put her phone backstage, and pointed the camera towards the stage.

To her surprise, she saw someone sitting in the seat she had given to Sakura Takagi.

It was dark, and the stage couldn't see clearly what was happening below the stage. All they could barely make out was that the person had pink hair, with half of his face covered by bangs and a cheering band.

Could it be that... Ying is here after all, but just doesn't want us to know?

Wakamiya Eve felt a surge of warmth. She gently nudged Maruyama Aya and said, "Sakura is here, sitting in the first row."

"Didn't Little Eve video call Sakura at the shrine?" Maruyama Aya's eyes widened.

"She didn't turn on the camera." Eve walked to her seat.

As the spotlights came on, Maruyama Aya picked up the microphone, her expression shining like a little sun: "Welcome to PasPale's performance! Please enjoy the songs we bring you!"

Goto Ichiri was completely shocked.

The five girls on the stage shone like the bright moon in the night, almost making her afraid to look directly at them.

There were less than a thousand spectators at this performance, but everyone was waving glow sticks to cheer, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Goto Ichiri had never had the experience of watching a live performance in his life.

Her father showed her some videos of band performances, and it was also after watching those “Guitar Hero” videos that she began to think about becoming a professional guitarist.

But she never understood why the fans in the audience were so enthusiastic.

Unconsciously, her eyes went to Bingling. Meng》TumorlingIIII umbrella Shrimp Sichuan Japanese.

The girl in the stage costume plays a handsome tele guitar, which does not have a pickguard like a traditional guitar, and radically adopts a dual single and double pickup configuration.

Goto Ichiri felt the sound coming from the speakers pressing against his eardrums, but now he understood how dazzling the people on the stage were.

Just sitting here, Goto Ichiri almost exhausted all her "social energy". If she needed to communicate with like-minded people, she would probably have run away.

The girls on the stage showed no fear at all. Instead, they used their energetic performances to stir up the emotions of the audience.

Their playing and singing skills weren't top-notch, and even individually they weren't professional enough. The strongest one was the guitarist, but if she were to play alone in a closet, she wouldn't be any worse than her.

But...on the stage, they can shine brightly.

Goto Ichiri could no longer hear what PasPale was singing on the stage.

Two voices argued fiercely in her heart.

A voice said, "There's no way I can do this. How can I possibly play guitar in front of so many people?"

Another voice said, "Are you willing to spend your whole life playing guitar in a closet, like a wild hammer snake that twists when it sees sunlight?"

The speakers on the scene continued to pour sound into her ears, and she felt her whole head was buzzing.

"Thank you all for coming to watch PasPale's performance! Especially thanks to the audience who have been supporting us since before!" Maruyama Aya pointed her index finger at Goto Ichiri and shouted.

Goto Ichiri escaped.

She dropped the cheering stick, jumped up from the first row of seats, and rushed out as if escaping from a devil's den.

Maruyama Aya only saw a pink-haired girl running out of the performance venue at a high speed.

It was Sakura, she was really here. Sakura had said she wouldn't come to the scene, but now that she was discovered, it was normal for her to run away.

She wiggled her finger and continued the performance.

With the support of PasPale members and Sakura's help, she will definitely shine the brightest.

Chapter 39: Tree Demon, Live and Music Girl: 39, Big Tree Demon

[Under your guidance, Maruyama Aya becomes a qualified idol, and the host receives 3000 shining points.]

[Complete your personal main quest for the first time and receive a random master-level skill as a reward.]

[Extracting…]

[Host obtains Master-level skill: Car Repair (Master): Whether it's simple tire repairs and sheet metal work, slightly more difficult ECU flashing and powertrain modifications, or full vehicle aerodynamic modifications and fine-tuning of the handling, all can be done with ease.]

Gao Mu, who was at the shrine, had just finished watching the performance when he received a system prompt.

ha?

Repair the car?

The joy of receiving three thousand Shining Points was somewhat dampened. What good would it be for a priestess like me to know how to repair cars? When I became a great dryad, would I turn the shop left to me by the old priestess into a car repair shop?

[Under your guidance, PasPale successfully held the idol band's resurrection live, and the host received 2000 shining points.]

However, the information that came next made Gao Mu forget his depression.

8000 points collected!

I, Gao Mu, have finally become a great tree demon!

From now on, the sky is high for birds to fly and the sea is wide for fish to jump!

She immediately used up 8000 Shining Points and advanced herself to "Great Tree Demon", leaving only 380 Shining Points.

[The host has become a great dryad, able to transform into a human form, move around Tokyo, and use simple dryad spells.]

[Obtain three opportunities to extract skills at random levels.]

[Extracting…]

[The host obtains the simple-level dryad spell: Plant Communication.]

[The host can communicate with other plants and obtain limited intelligence.]

[The host obtains the simple-level Dryad spell: Leaf Spray.]

[The host can spray a large amount of cherry blossom leaves all over his body.]

[Host obtains skill: Document Forgery (Advanced).]

[The host can forge various documents. For ordinary people, they can be indistinguishable from the real thing. However, there are still some loopholes when it comes to documents used by important departments and documents that can be searched online.]

Gao Mu was silent.

Blasting, car repair, forging documents...

Is this a witch or a secret agent?

However, if you have the ability to forge documents, you can prepare an identity that is flawless for yourself.

She put on the casual clothes that she had asked Toyama Kasumi to buy for her and walked out of the shrine happily.

Stepping out of the torii gate, you no longer feel constrained as before, but can walk out of the shrine like a "human" and into the bustling city.

This feeling……

For a person, it is nothing special, but for a tree, it is indeed an indescribable experience.

Gao Mu looked greedily at the shops and hotels on the street, and the endless stream of vehicles and pedestrians on the street.

If she is not allowed to see these scenes, her memories of her past life will become blurred.

She walked a long way until she walked into a Yoshinoya noodle restaurant.

The reason she came here was because she had never been to any of the other stores in her previous life, and she wanted to try to find the flavor of her previous life.

What surprised her was that the two shop assistants in the store actually had speech bubbles on their heads.

Could it be that these two people are ramen girls or fried rice girls, and their goal is to open a restaurant chain?

Gao Mu looked at them twice with some concern.

One of them was tall, had brown skin, and looked to be of Southeast Asian descent. The other was shorter than her, with short, slightly curly hair. Both of them looked a little listless while working.

"Your beef rice, please."
