When everyone on the Muse heard Nozomi's declaration they were dumbfounded and had been thinking about what to do, however, they also felt annoyed by their producer so before they met him, they had decided to ignore him for a while to give him a punishment.

However...

"Ah, I have made a new bread recently, I wonder who can test it for me?" Haru suddenly said and took out the bread from his bag.

"Bread!"

Honoka was excited and walked directly in front of Haru. "Me! Me! Let me taste it!"

"Good."

Haru nodded and gave the bread to Honoka.

Honoka directly ate the bread and felt shocked at how delicious it was, but then she quickly happily ate the bread.

"Eat it slowly," Haru said while patting Honoka's head.

"Yes!"

Honoka nodded happily.

'HONOKAA!!!'

The rest of the members of Muse were dumbfounded when one of their members suddenly decided to betray them.

"Ho... Honoka-chan has fallen!"

"What... What should we do?"

"Calm down, there are eight of us, there's no way that he can defeat us!"

Out of the nine members of Muse, Honoka was the weakest among them and she was also stupid so they didn't feel that surprise when she fell directly under Haru's trick.

"Now, that you mention it, I have received rice from Akita prefecture, but it is too much for me..." Haru rubbed his chin and said, "I wonder whether there's someone who wants to take some of the rice back home."

"Me!"

Hanayo suddenly appeared in front of Haru at a very fast speed and raised her hand very high.

"Leave the rice to me, Haru! I will eat it cleanly!"

"Thank you, that will be a great help," Haru said with a smile.

Hanayo nodded happily.

"..."

The seven members of Muse were dumbfounded when one of their members had fallen once again.

"Hmph! Honoka, Hanayo, how can you betray us so easily! We decided to ignore this guy before, but... you guys..." Nico looked at Hanayo and Honoka in disdain. She then folded her arms and looked at Haru with an expression that as if telling him that his trick wouldn't work for her no matter what.

"In truth, I have bought a lot of rare idol videos since it might be good for you to learn them, but I can't bring them all so is there anyone who wants to bring them back?" Haru asked and took out a lot of idols' group videos, merchandise, etc.

"Me!"

Nico quickly appeared in front of Haru and said with a serious expression, "I will take those children back home. Leave everything to me, Haru."

"Thank you," Haru said with a smile.

"...."

Maki, Eli, Nozomi, Kotori, Rin, and Umi were dumbfounded when they saw how Haru could easily trick Honoka, Hanayo, and Nico. They didn't expect that their enemy was so strong that he had defeated one-third of their members easily, and then...

"!!!!"

They quickly shuddered when they saw him glance at them with a gentle smile.

"Maki, Nozomi, Eli, can you forgive me? Please don't ignore me."

Haru showed a very pitiful expression like a sad husky.

"....."

Maki, Nozomi, and Eli felt that their hearts were pierced and they quickly moved. Even though they had agreed to ignore him before, he didn't really want to do that after all so they quickly decided to give up and walked toward Haru, trying to pet him since his expression was so cute.

Haru, who was being patted, felt quite weird, but it seemed that his previous action didn't only cause the heart of his three girlfriends to melt since it also melted the hearts of the members of Muse.

The rest of the members of Muse felt that their hearts were shaken...

"No! We can't forgive him so easily!" Umi then looked at Kotori and Rin with a serious expression. "There are the three of us left so we need to work hard together!"

Kotori and Rin nodded with serious expression since they knew how dangerous Haru was.

Their formation and combination were perfect, but it was quickly destroyed by Haru and six of their members had given up because of his trickery.

"What are you going to do next Haru?" Eli asked with interest.

The rest of the members that had given up also looked at Haru, wondering how he was going to make Kotori, Umi, and Rin give up.

"Kotori."

"Eh?"

Kotori had a bad feeling when her name was being called first.

"Kotori, can you forgive me and not ignore me?"

"..."

"If you can't then I will tell them about..."

"Wait! Wait! Wait!"

Kotori quickly ran toward Haru and closed his mouth with her hands. She quickly moved closer at him and whispered, "You bully! You have told me that you're going to keep it a secret!"

"I have kept it a secret, right? No one knows about your secret job after all," Haru said with a mischievous smile.

"...De... Devil..."

Kotori's eyes were teary since she had been bullied.

"Haru, don't bully Kotori-chan, nyaa!" Rin quickly came and hugged Kotori since she was afraid that Haru would bully Kotori.

In truth, Kotori was acting since she also wanted to have revenge on Haru since he tried to bully her, but...

"Rin, I know that you're going to help Kotori." Haru smiled and said, "It's great to know that there's someone who is as brave as you here."

"Eh? Really?" Rin smiled happily and felt a bit shy since she was praised like this.

"Rin-chan..." Kotori didn't expect that Rin was a sucker and weak against praise.

"Yes, it's really reassuring to have you around us so it'll be great if you don't ignore me again, Rin," Haru said with a sad voice.

"Yes! Don't worry! I won't ignore you again, Haru!" Rin said while patting her chest, telling him that she wasn't going to ignore him again in the future.

"...."

Everyone was speechless when they saw how gullible Rin was.

However, even though eight of them had been solved, there was one person that was still ignoring him and this person was very tough since she was very strict and reserved so it might be hard for her to know when Haru was dating three girls at the same time.

Haru then walked to Umi who ignored him and sat one meter away from her.

Umi didn't say anything and only glanced at him before ignoring him again.

Unlike the rest of the members, Umi's difficulty was at the highest level.

Everyone was also curious about how Haru was going to handle this situation.

"Umi, I am not going to use a trick on you since I know it is useless so what I am going to do is to apologize to you." Haru bowed his head slightly and said, "I am sorry if I don't tell anyone that I have dated Maki, Nozomi, and Eli before and I am sorry if I hurt you somehow so please don't ignore me again."

Haru was very sincere since he didn't want to be treated like this by Umi and he wanted to be able to talk with her as usual again.

"...."

No one said anything and they only looked at Umi at the same time.

"You know..."

Umi suddenly said something after a while. "After our first concert together with the nine of us, I saw you holding hands with Maki so I thought that you were dating her before."

"....."

"But the two of you never said anything so I didn't say anything and waited for the two of you to tell everyone about this matter, but..." Umi looked at Haru with red eyes and said, "You have disappointed me..."

Among all the members of Muse, Umi also had the strongest feeling toward Haru since both of them had known each other for a long time, but because of her reserved personality, she didn't dare to say anything about her feelings, especially after she saw how Haru and Maki were holding hands together at that time.

Umi thought that both of them had dated each other so she could only give up and bury her feelings since as their friend, she should support their relationship, even though it was hard for her.

However, Umi heard that this bastard dated Umi, Eli, and Nozomi at the same time. She felt very complex at that time when she heard their announcement, and she somehow hated herself who felt happy about it.

Umi felt her eyes start to get teary, but she stubbornly held it, staring at the bastard who had made her sad.

Haru looked at Umi and also felt hurt when she told him those words, but he knew that he was at fault and it was also his consequence since he had decided to date all of them so he was going to accept it.

"....."

Everyone was silent and the atmosphere turned awkward.

Honoka wanted to say something, but Kotori stopped her.

Everyone knew that Umi was a very reserved girl so it was normal when she couldn't accept the relationship between Haru, Eli, Maki, and Nozomi, but they knew that the one that needed to solve this matter was Haru.

Haru looked at Umi and knew that he needed to solve this matter or else right now, Muse might be disbanded, and that was the only thing that he couldn't allow to happen.
