Cross Dressing In A Fantasy World Full Of Magic-Chapter 199 SS: Failure And Reignited Dreams
This Start After The Concert.
[Lillianna's POV]
I have never hated a crowd like this in my time as an idol. My friends and I were in tears at the results of the concert.
The five of us performed at Avaris' Royal Academy. It was the place where every talented person from Avaris would be.
Before we were performing, we were already demoralized. The Black Dragons are talented. Their music attracted the attention of everyone.
Our loss against them was fair, but what I couldn't forgive was given the joke of a band called the Wild whatever.
Their win was undeserved, and anyone could see it. Their talent in music wasn't good, and they weren't even charismatic.
These important critical factors of being an idol are essential. What angers me most was they lacked them and still won.
Yes, I'm venting to myself, but what I'm doing was justified. They had won because of their race, nothing else.
I sighed to myself, going back to my depression spiral. Just remembering the crowd made me sick. Master would be disappointed in us.
With the addition of us recruiting magicians of Avaris. Many of them had declined, and we had to get our guards to wipe them out. So our secret would remain.
"Eclair, are the other three doing well?"
It had been a day since I last saw them. I was busy recruiting, so I didn't have time to check on them.
"They're doing better than yesterday."
Eclair, the mature one in our group, had done her best to cheer the three of them up. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶
"Thank you for helping them. I'm sorry I couldn't help."
"There is no need to apologize. We're all friends. You're doing your best for our group."
I smiled, feeling better from Eclair's words. She is like the mother of our group.
"I will check up on them. You mind joining?"
"I wish I could, but Master has a chore for me to do."
"Then good luck!"
"Thank you."
After Eclair left, I couldn't help but sigh. Even Eclair, the most mature, was still hurt by this concert, and she had no one to help her cheer up.
Going to the meeting room, I could see all three of them slump. Usually, all of us would enjoy ourselves and talk.
"Everyone!"
I did my best to grab their attention. I wouldn't usually shout, but desperate times call for desperate measures.
"I know what had transpired had disheartened all of you, but we can't just take this loss."
If they were going to stay like this, nothing would happen. I can't let them be depressed for days getting nothing done.
"But isn't it pointless?"
Reina's negativity could be felt from a mile away.
"It is not pointless. Master has chosen us for a reason, and we will do whatever we need to fulfill it. Reina, how can you say that this is all pointless?"
Renia had nothing else to say but was there in thought. I should try to cheer on Blanc. First is easily influenced and easiest to get to smile.
"Blanc, you, of all people, should know that being sad won't do anything. This isn't our last performance. We're all getting started!"
Creating a motivational speech, Blanc pondered on what I said. Her slump had lessened, and I could see her stand up.
"No, you're right. I'm not going to take this loss. Thank you, Lily."
I had gotten Blanc out of her depressed state, and now there is only Reina and Emi. Next should be Emi, Reina was harder to convince, but if we had Emi, who was rational, we should get our point toward her. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖
Next, both Blanc and I tried to console Emi.
"Emi, you should know that this isn't the end. For someone who wants to live her life with money, you won't get anything from this."
I may be cruel to poke fun at her dream, but it was for the better of my friend. Emi stared at me, glaring, but I didn't flinch.
"Are you going to stop and give up that dream?"
"No."
Emi sighed and left it at that. While she was still sad, it stopped her from moping around. And now for the final Reina.
Reina was the hardest to cheer up. She was the most negative of us. So, how would we cheer for someone like her? An idea had popped into my head, and I was thinking of what to do.
"Everyone, let's give Reina a hug."
Reina couldn't help but be bewildered by what I said. After all, what I said was random to her, and she wasn't sure how to react.
Doing what I said, I gently wrapped my arms around her. Next came Blanc, and that was enough to make her flustered.
"Stop..."
"Emi, join in!"

Eclair, who was out doing a chore, had come back. —seeing the four of us hug had come as a surprise to her.
"Eclair, join in!'
"Don't mind if I do~."
After a while, we stopped. The mood around the room had improved, and things were looking good.
With the situation sorted, we all returned to our headquarters. From the looks of it, our master wasn't in her room. She was probably out for a late-night walk.
Suddenly, I heard footsteps coming from behind me. Looking back, I could see it was Reina.
"I'm sorry for being troublesome."
Reina bowed down and apologized.
"We're friends. I will do anything to cheer you girls up. It wasn't much of a hassle."
Reina smiled and it was the warmest smile I had ever seen from her.
"Thank you. I got you this for all your hard work."
She handed me a present. I couldn't help but be thankful for it. Reina said her goodbyes and left the room. I then looked at the moon and couldn't help but think.
This was only the start. With our dedication, we will do our best to improve. Something like this wouldn't stop us, and I won't allow it.
As the leader of this group, I will do my best to make my friends happy. Not only that, my master, and even the world!
