- (Possible interactions with Sunna)
- Sunna: Assistant coach, look! Nangong is bullying me again!
- Sunna: Assistant coach... can you help me find some inspiration...
- Sunna: Hey hey assistant coach! Listen up, I've got an inspiration!
- Sunna: I can definitely do this! ...Assistant coach, let's go one more time!
- Sunna: Maybe we should add a bit of syncopation here... What do you think, assistant coach?
- Sunna: Oh, assistant coach, are we starting the training?
- Sunna: Weird recording? Th-th-that's just something I left on my sleep!

Possible Idles
- Aria: ♪~♪~♪~
- Aria: Come with me into the world of Delusion!
- Aria: Have I gotten a little better now...?
- Aria: I love this song!
- Aria: Nangong... could you correct this sequence for me one more time?
- Aria: Why is it lagging again today...!
- Sunna: Hehe, looks like my follower count went up today~
- Sunna: I didn't trip over me feet today, great job!
- Sunna: Just as expected from a song I wrote, it sounds so amazing, hehe~
- Sunna: Nangong, you rascal, picking on me again!
- Sunna: The sound of bells... Maybe I can add it to my new track!
- Sunna: This move is way too hard!
- Sunna: Why hasn't inspiration come yet...?
- Nangong Yu: Aria's voice is still as beautiful as ever~
- Nangong Yu: Let's take it step by step, everyone still needs time to get used to the rhythm.
- Nangong Yu: So spicy... I gotta find a way to make Sunna try this.
- Nangong Yu: This dance... maybe it's time to try something new.
- Nangong Yu: This part is the core of the performance, so I need to plan it out carefully...
- Nangong Yu: What am I gonna do with you Sunna... Want me to teach you?
- Nangong Yu: Where did Sunna run off to this time...?!
Daily Events
The Story's Beginning
Unlocks in Week 1.
- Nangong Yu: Phew, let's call it a day for today's training.
- Sunna: I—I—I wanna practice a bit more. I still can't get the dance steps in the chorus on beat...
- Aria: Me too... The high notes still need some work. Would you all mind going through it with me one more time?
- Nangong Yu: Hmm... there's still some parts I wanna practice... Let's just do it once more...
- Cecilia: Hm? What's up with my darlings? Why are you all looking so down?
- Aria: It's Ms. Cecilia!
- Nangong Yu: It's nothing. We just finished training, so everyone's a bit worn out...
- Cecilia: Hmm, let me give you all a little pep talk~ For all you sweet angels training so hard, I've got a special surprise prepared just for you!
- Sunna: A surprise?! What is it...!
- Nangong Yu: Knowing Ms. Cecilia's style, guess it's probably going to be little hairclips, candy boxes, and other small gifts like that, right?
- Cecilia: Nope~ Hehe, this time I've got a real BIG surprise in store!
- Cecilia: While I can't tell you just yet, you need to promise me — get ready to welcome this surprise at the best version of the Angels of Delusion you can be!
- Aria: Hey, wait Ms.—Ah, she hung up...
- Sunna: A—A surprise! I absolutely love surprises! Nangong, Aria, what do you think it would be? Oh, I'm so excited!
- Nangong Yu: Just waiting for the surprise won't do~ Sunna, don't forget the second part — we gotta welcome it as the best version of the Angels of Delusion!
- Aria: But our recent training... I wouldn't call it out best performance...
- Nangong Yu: *sigh* I guess this is what they call hitting a wall.
- Sunna: Is it possible that... if I keep practicing the same way as before, I still won't be able to meet Ms. Cecilia's expectations?!
- Nangong Yu: Hmm~ Looks like we'll have to figure this out ourselves and seek some "special" help.
- Sunna: Yeah! We can't let Ms. Cecilia down!
- Aria: So... what's this "special" help?
- Nangong Yu: And there you go. Welcome to our training room, exalted assistance coaches~
- Belle: Ooh~ The place is pretty neat! Let me see... First thing we should do is...
- Wise: Let's start with a skill assessment to get a basic understanding of the Angels of Delusion members.
- Belle: Right, right! Now then, let's have everyone take a quick little test~
- (Tutorial plays)
- Fairy: Welcome to the Training Room! For the next 5 weeks, you'll be serving as an assistant coach alongside the Angels of Delusion.
- Fairy: Let's start with a simple test to get a preliminary understanding of how our Angels are doing in their training.
- (Press Test)
- Fairy: Master, this is the special training ground. Your objective is to earn more points by continuously clearing blocks.
- Fairy: The blocks will slowly fall from the top, during which you can use the directional buttons to guide the blocks left and right, controlling their landing position.
- Fairy: While blocks are falling, you can rotate them to a suitable angle. Try rotating a block once, Master.
- (After rotating)
- Fairy: When you determine a block is in the right position, you can guide it to drop quickly. Master, this is the perfect opportunity.
- Fairy: Here, I have predicted the next block for you, so you can plan the subsequent guidance, Master.
- Fairy: If the current block doesn't match the requirements, you can save it first or swap it with a previously saved block for later use.
- Fairy: I will display your saved blocks here, but please note: during training, you cannot continuously save/switch blocks.
- Fairy: Now, Master, please begin your guidance with a target score of 1,000.
- (After getting the target score of a 1,000)
- Fairy: As expected of you, Master. You have completed the training target of 1,000 points. You may end the current test at any time.
- (After finishing the test)
- Aria: Our voices and dance moves are totally in sync with this...
- Nangong Yu: It's amazing how they can convert all the performance actions into blocks, and then guide our training by manipulating these blocks...
- Nangong Yu: This way, the training content becomes visualized and the training targets become super clear.
- Sunna: I—I—I've never seen skill like this before! You're amazing, assistnace coaches!
- Belle: Hehe, it's not that impressive~
- Sunna: Hey assistant coaches, what's our next training session gonna be?
- Nangong Yu: Hey Sunna~ I know you're eager, but hold on a sec — have you forgotten something important
- Sunna: S—Something really important... Oh! You mean that cele— mmph!
- Nangong Yu: Yeah, yeah, yeah! That's the thing we promised our teacher~ The daily training check-in! Haven't done today's check-in yet!
- Aria: Yeah, assistant coaches, please come over here too~
- Nangong Yu: Ta-da! Did we startle you, assistant coaches?
- Sunna: Aaah! Nangong, why did you shoot the party poppers at me? Now there's confetti stuck in my hair!
- Nangong Yu: Hmph~ That's what you get for almost spoiling the surprise, you silly goose!
- Aria: H—Hold on a sec. Guess we're trying to say — thank you so much for accepting our commission and agreeing to train us!
- Sunna: Mhm... We'll training super duper hard! A—Absolutely no slacking off!
- Nangong Yu: Hey now, at this special welcome party for our assistant coaches, shouldn't we have something more important to say?
- Aria: Alright then, let's say it together — three, two, one —
- Angels of Delusion: Welcome to the Angels of Delusion training squad, assistant coaches!
A Solid First Step
Unlocks after reaching Week 1's test target.
- Belle: Alright! That's it for this week's training. Thanks for all your hard work, everyone!
- Wise: Hmm, everyone's been practicing really hard this week. I can see improvement in quite a few aspects.
- Nangong Yu: True. Even Sunna's performance has gotten pretty impressive. Our assistant coaches are something else~
- Sunna: W—W—What do you mean! I've been working so hard, okay!
- Aria: Ahem! It's all thanks to the assistant coaches! We'll keep up the good work next week!
- Belle: Mhm~ Alright then, we'll head back to review our training session and work on next week's training plan.
- Wise: Take a good rest over the weekend, everyone. It's important to balance work and rest. See you next week.
- Sunna: Um... are the assistant coaches offline now?
- Nangong Yu: Yep, the camera is off now~
- Aria: The signal shows that the assistant coaches have disconnected...
- Sunna: Ugh... I can't take it anymore. I can't move at all... Nangong, help me turn over...
- Nangong Yu: Just standing here is taking all my energy, so you better stay put and rest up~
- Aria: Even though the training was super intense, we've made some serious progress this week!
- Nangong Yu: Yeah, and to be honest, I was kinda skeptical about the assistant coaches at first~
- Sunna: Hmph~ I remember someone saying that these cheap commissions posted online would only attract scammers~
- Aria: Right? The coaching fees are super cheap... but they are so professional and dedicated!
- Sunna: Wait... I'm getting suspicious. Nangong, you haven't been doing anything like... using your own money to cover costs...
- Nangong Yu: Wh—What... No way, of course not!
- Sunna: (Stare—)
- Nangong Yu: Ahem! The assistant coaches are seriously professional and always manage to get some amazing assistants to help... I gotta say, I'm pretty impressed!
- Aria: Ahh, already looking forward to next week's training~
- Sunna: Hold up, Nangong. You better explain this to us!
Time to Dance
Unlocks in Week 2.
- Nangong Yu: Hah... hah... coaches, that song was such a rush! It's been ages since we've practiced a dance to such an uptempo song. So satisfying!
- Aria: Yes! Long sessions of singing and dancing are great for training breath control while performing~
- Sunna: F—Finally... it's over. I feel like I'm... about to collapse.
- Nangong Yu: You were already struggling during the warm-up stretches, no?
- Sunna: S—So what! I know you're gonna say something like "Sunna's totally lame at times like this" again, aren't you? Hmph!
- Nangong Yu: Sunna really nailed it this time~ Even I was impressed!
- Sunna: See? I knew it... Huh? HUH?!
- Nangong Yu: Did you notice, Sunna? Even with such a challenging "long and complex piece," you kept up from start to finish~
- Sunna: Y—Yeah, I did! It's like my body moved before my brain could even process what was happening...
- Nangong Yu: That's right. Remember that feeling~
- Belle: I was just about to complain that the song Fairy picked seems a bit too difficult...
- Wise: Looking at it now, I think it's just at the right level of difficulty.
- AI Assistant: Affirmative. Data indicates all members have fully recovered and are ready to begin the next training session.
- Nangong Yu: Heh heh, bring it on! That was just a warm-up~
- Aria: I'll sing even better this time~!
- Sunna: A—Are our assistant coaches some kind of demons...
A Minor Interlude
Unlocks after reaching Week 2's test target.
- Sunna: N—Nangong... can you check if my legs are still there? I can barely feel them anymore...
- Sunna: Owww, that hurts! Why'd you pinch me out of nowhere!?
- Nangong Yu: Hehe, looks like little Sunna's legs are still there~ What a relief!
- Sunna: *sobbing* You just love teasing me!
- Nangong Yu: So not true~ I can't praise you enough! You're pretty much keeping up with my rhythm now. Who knows, in a bit you might even steal my spot as the main dancer~
- Aria: I feel like my singing and dancing skills have improved quite a bit too. My breathing is way more stable now.
- Cecilia: Looks like my little angels have all made quite some progress.
- Sunna: Ms. Cecilia! Let me tell you about our training these past few days...
- Sunna: Sure, the assistant coaches are cool and all, but sometimes the amount of training is just WAYYY too intense! It's seriously exhausting!
- Nangong Yu: Yep, sometimes it does feel like pushing things to the limit, hehe~
- Cecilia: Is that so? Hmm... From what I can tell, the practice assignments your assistant coaches gave you are just the basics, you know?
- Aria: Are you saying that our current training is just the "basics," and future training... will only get harder?
- Cecilia: Hmm... theoretically speaking, I guess you're right, Aria dear~
- Nangong Yu: Hmm-hmm~ Looks like someone's at their limit~
- Sunna: W—What demonic training...
- Cecilia: Hmm... Maybe this kind of training is a bit too intense for everyone right now?
- Cecilia: Come to think of it, maybe this training schedule needs some tweaking...
- Cecilia: Alright, I'll make some adjustments to the training system's schedule. Can't let my precious ones get injured from overtraining after all...
- Sunna: Ms. Cecilia said that the current training is all very simple and basic...
- Sunna: It's just the basics... Why can't I get it right...?
- Sunna: No, this can't go on. I can't keep holding Nangong and Aria back!
- Sunna: ...Alright! L—Let me adjust the system settings, and the training intensity...
- AI Assistant: ...
Time to Sing
Unlocks in Week 3.
- Aria: La~♪ La la~~♪
- Belle: That was amazing! Everyone get ready. We're starting the next note!
- Sunna: Eh? ♪La— Lala—!♪
- Sunna: Phew... The assistant coaches really love ramping up the difficulty! Thank goodness I managed to hang in there, hehe...
- Nangong Yu: Hmm, looks like our little Sunna's getting good at handling unexpected situations? Ah, Sunna, you're so charming. I'm becoming your fan~
- Sunna: S—S—Stop talking nonsense! Let's get back to training!
- Aria: La~♪ La...? Eh, it doesn't feel right... How...
- Nangong Yu: What's wrong, Aria? Are you feeling sick or...?
- Aria: Ah, no no, it's just that there was a bit of... signal interference just now?
- Sunna: Ugh... maybe it's time to upgrade my network?
- Nangong Yu: Huh? Is the connection bad or something...?
- Aria: Anyway, let's get back to training first! I'm fine~
- Wise: Alright, let's move on to the next note.
- Sunna: La—*coughing*!
- Aria: La—♪! Oh no... This note's too high, assistant coaches!
- Nangong Yu: Looks like the assistant coaches' plan... is to blow the roof off with those high notes~
- Belle: Wise, you raised three keys at once?!
- Wise: I... I didn't mean to... Let me debug this real quick. Sorry!
First Signs
Unlocks after reaching Week 3's test target.
- Sunna: Like Master Tiger said, channel your energy to your diaphragm, and breathe in and out slowly...
- Nangong Yu: Ugh... I lost control of my breathing again. This is so hard. Master Aria, please teach me~
- Aria: D—Don't make fun of me! I'm not even sure how this whole "breathing" thing works...
- Nangong Yu: *sigh* But it is really hard~
- Aria: Or... maybe we could hit up the assistant coaches and see if they've got any tips?
- Aria: Huh? Whaaaat? I can't seem to connect to the network here. Did the signal drop out?
- Nangong Yu: Ah! Let me check if my internet bill is due now...
- Nangong Yu: Aria, please~ Could you connect to a public Wi-Fi first, and then help me turn on your hotspot?
- Aria: Geez, I'm not a walking hotspot... Hurry up!
- Nangong Yu: Alright, alright, alright~ Aria, you're the best. On it! Now... successfully connected to Aria!
- Sunna: Hmm... Since I'm already connected, do I still need to upgrade the network?
- Nangong Yu: Hmm~ Can't say for sure if it's a network issue yet. Let me check it out real quick.
Time to Rest
Unlocks in Week 4.
- Sunna: Huff... huff... *Takes a sip of water* S—Superstar Sunna, making her entrance~
- Aria: Hehe... I actually scored a premium VIP ticket with exclusive merch! This is awesome...
- Nangong Yu: What premium... Wait, how did I fall asleep...? Aria, wake up, let go of my leg, you're hugging too tight and my foot's gone numb—
- Aria: Huh...? Ahhh sorry Nangong, I'll let go right away...
- Nangong Yu: Don't worry about it. More importantly, looks like we all dozed off... We haven't even properly finished today's training yet...
- Aria: A—About training, there's a message from the assistant coaches: "To my little angels, we're taking a break today, take some time to unwind!"
- Nangong Yu: Wow! The assistant coaches are such angels~
- Nangong Yu: Hey Aria, have you been feeling like... you're lagging lately?
- Aria: Huh? Nope, I'm in top form lately!
- Nangong Yu: That's good. Hmm... Now, there's just one last thing to do... I'll tap—
- Aria: ...Huh? Strange, just now for a moment...
- Nangong Yu: I disconnected from the hotspot! Been meaning to do that for ages, hehe~
- Sunna: F—Folks in the back, l—lemme see your hands, hehe...
- Nangong Yu: Alright, will do, Miss "Superstar" Sunna~
- Sunna: Uwahhhhh! What's going on... N—Nangong?!
- Nangong Yu: Here are the hands you wanted to see, enjoy~
- Sunna: Okay, okay... I'm awake now! Stop squishing my face... Waaauuugh...
The Truth Behind Training
Unlocks after reaching Week 4's test target.
- Sunna: F—F—Finally! It's finally over!
- Aria: Yeah, today's the last training session. Wonder what the final test will be like... I'm so nervous.
- Nangong Yu: ...About the final test, there's something I need to say, and it's about Aria.
- Nangong Yu: Hmm. Let's look back. Aria, why did you experience those random moments of lag during training?
- Nangong Yu: And why does our training difficulty subtly change every time Aria lags?
- Nangong Yu: And here's something weirder: after I connected with Aria, those random lags just stopped...
- Nangong Yu: According to my investigation, there's only one truth. Aria, you are the core of the entire training system!
- Sunna: Aria is... the core of the entire training system?!
- Nangong Yu: I'm just as surprised... For some reason, the training system seems to be built on Aria's local processor.
- Nangong Yu: Any adjustments made in the system will be directly transmitted to Aria...
- Nangong Yu: The changes to the training system will cause Aria's perception to slightly desync from reality, leading to weird reactions during training... Such as spacing out and lagging...
- Sunna: B—But... shouldn't system adjustments be part of the training plan?
- Nangong Yu: Hmm, seems like there's some mysterious figure behind the scenes, constantly tweaking the training schedule...
- Nangong Yu: But here's the thing — seems like someone made some unplanned adjustments. What do you think, Sunna?
- Sunna: W—W—What—
- Nangong Yu: Your eyes are darting away... But you're not the only one. According to my research, Ms. Cecilia and the assistant coaches have all been tweaking the training system too.
- Aria: So you're saying... all these unplanned adjustments piled up and made the current system... a little wonky?
- Nangong Yu: Hmm, if this keeps up... I'm afraid we'll be facing a veeeery terrifying final test~
- Sunna: W—W—What should I do?! I didn't mean to...
- Nangong Yu: But don't worry, the omniscient and great Nangong has already figured out a solution~
- Sunna: During my previous investigation, by connecting with Aria, I've located the system port. I just need to hit reset and everything will be back to normal!
- Sunna: O—Oh, I get it now! As expected of Nangong!
- Nangong Yu: Humhum, I wouldn't mind a bit more praise~ Now then, here we go, one-click reset! I'm pressing—
- Wise: No! Wait, Nangong, don't press it!
- Input confirmed. Due to a fatal system error, the system will crash in 10 seconds. 10... 9...
- Nangong Yu: Uh oh... looks like I messed up...
- Sunna: D—D—Do something, quick!!
- AI Assistant: Rest assured. Your excellent and reliable AI assistant will always show up at crucial moments like these.
- Belle: Fair... my AI assistant, where have you been all this time!
- Wise: If I'm not mistaken, this... reliable AI assistant must be the one adjusting our training program behind the scenes.
- Wise: Not only that... she's also handling our "unplanned" adjustments, so she can resolve the current situation instantly, right?
- AI Assistant: Affirmative. You finally understand my efforts behind the scenes. I propose increasing the monthly electricity threshold to 200% of the current value.
- AI Assistant: Note: While the system has been saved from crashing, the changes made are irreversible...
- Nangong Yu: The changes are irreversible... wait, that means!
- Final test, input complete...
- AI Assistant: Affirmative. What you're about to face is a completely unplanned final test.
Time to Showdown
Unlocks in Week 5.
- Complete the Final Test
- Belle: *Sigh* You know what they say online, "if it ain't broke, don't mess with the code"...
- Wise: Uh, I guess... we've experienced that firsthand now.
- Sunna: I... I'm sorry.
- Nangong Yu: Apologies, everyone. This situation really caught everyone off guard...
- Wise: Are you all... really going to take on this final test?
- Nangong Yu: Don't worry, assistant coaches~ Since this is the final training stage, a bit of an unexpected challenge is just what we need, right?
- Aria: Yeah! And this is kinda like the final stage we all created together, right? I think it'll be really meaningful for us to clear it as a group.
- Sunna: And besides... the assistant coaches are here too!
- Nangong Yu: That's right, we've got the best assistant coaches on our side! So the Angels of Delusion will certainly claim our victory!
- Assistant coaches, let's start today's training!
- Tes█ N▚.
- Target Score: 9999999999999999999999999999999999999999
- (Take the test)
- (If you fail the first time)
- Nangong Yu: Dang it, so close!
- Sunna: Nooo, I'm gonna fail!!
- (Click on Fairy)
- Mr. Starlight: Starlight Mirage!
- Aria: I—It's Mr. Starlight!
- Mr. Starlight: That's right, it's yours truly — a Starlight Knight who just happened to be passing by!
- Nangong Yu: Mr. Starlight! Why would you show up at a time like this...
- Mr. Starlight: Hey, wasn't this planned by the manag... assistant coaches? I got a link from them that said: "Please click and follow the instructions. Thank you for your support."
- Belle: Could it be... Fair... our AI assistant?
- AI Assistant: Affirmative. As I always say, you can always trust your excellent AI assistant.
- █████: Detection Complete: Target has passed Phase One of the test. Initiating Phase Two.
- Sunna: Waaaaaah! Here it comes again! And... it's even faster this time!
- Aria: Left, right... ugh, right again, I can barely keep up...
- Master Tiger: Awoooo! Don't panic, Master Aria! Your backup has arrived!
- Sunna: What an adorable roar~ Master Tiger is here too!
- Master Tiger: A—A—Adorable...? Please don't say that about me, ughh...
- Nangong Yu: Sunna! Don't let your guard down, we're not done yet!
- Chaotic Fried Rice: That's right, remember to stay focused on stage at all times~
- Sunna: Even Ms. Fried Rice is here!
- Aria: But that voice... Could it be... Astr...
- Chaotic Fried Rice: *Ahem* You carry our assistant coaches' dedication and companionship, you know~ I won't let you lose here!
- T A T: That's right, as a training assistant, I should step up when my students face difficulties.
- 100%Danger50%Concern: When push comes to shove, lil ol' me can be real serious too.
- OuterRingFuelGod: Hey~ Here's a Nitro-Fuel drink for you guys!
- Anby: Want some burgers too?
- Nangong Yu: The teaching assistants, they've all come to support us...
- Aria: Did we... win?
- Sunna: The test... it stopped. W—W—We won! It's over!
- █████: Alert: Preliminary tests complete. Final test commencing.
- Angels of Delusion: We're not done yet?!
- Nangong Yu: Woah, so fast! Dang, I can't keep up with the pace at all!
- Sunna: I—I—I can't see the actions at all anymore, this is bad...
- Aria: Huh? Could it be... It's the assistant coaches!
- Belle: Sunna, Aria, Nangong! Hang in there! We'll do everything we can to help!
- Wise: Just a little bit more... and we'll clear this level!
- AI Assistant: Master, based on current rhythm calculations, test failure will occur in 7 seconds.
- Belle: After coming this far, is it still not enough...
- Nangong Yu: Damn it, don't you dare look down on us!
- Nangong Yu: How could we, the Angels of Delusion, end here!
- Sunna: No matter how tough or bitter it gets, we'll never give up!
- Sunna: We already made a promise with our teacher! We'll complete our training as the best versions of the Angels of Delusion!
- Aria: We've been... living in delusion... all this time...
- Aria: Dreaming of the day when all of New Eridu will be singing our songs!
- Sunna: Dreaming that our music... can bring dreams to everyone!
- Nangong Yu: I've already made a promise with Sunna and Aria...
- Angels of Delusion: Until this delusion becomes reality... the Angels of Delusion will never stop... never!
- (Use Delusion, Activity!)
Final Test
Unlocks after reaching Week 5's test target.
- (After beating the final test)
- Aria: Did we... win? We won! Nangong! Sunna! We actually won!
- Nangong Yu: Heh heh~ I told you our delusions are invincible!
- Sunna: N—N—Nangong... Help me up... My legs have turned to jelly and I can't stand straight...
- Nangong Yu: Pfft, hahaha, is that really all you've got to say right now?
- Sunna: No way! Hey, don't let go! I really can't keep my balance!
- The next day...
A Date with the Future
Unlocks after reaching Week 5's test target.
- Wise: Come to think of it, there was never any "unplanned" stuff...
- Wise: Looks like every assistant received a support link from the HDD.
- Wise: Whether it's everyone adjusting the system, or the Angels of Delusion breaking through the final test... All of this was part of Fairy's plan, wasn't it?
- Wise: Come on Fairy, spill the tea~
- AI Assistant: Affirmative. Solving problems for Master and preventing issues before they arise — that's what the ultimate AI assistant should do.
- AI Assistant: Go ahead and soar bravely, Master. Fairy will always be by your side.
- Belle: Wow, you're getting better and better at sweet talk. Where'd you pick up all these lines from, huh?
- Wise: Fairy, you did well this time, but if there's a next time, I hope you'll discuss it with us first.
- AI Assistant: The request has been added to my to-do list with priority level "do as I deem fit."
- Belle: Thankfully it all ended well, and the Angels of Delusion has made quite some progress too...
- Belle: But... it's a bit of a shame to keep showing up as a mysterious figure...
- Wise: "Only variables outside the system can break through the system's tests." Didn't Fairy already explain this? By staying on the outside, we can flexibly respond to events that occur during training.
- Wise: Besides... I'm sure we'll have plenty of chances to meet again in the future. For example, I could buy two tickets to an Angels of Delusion concert...
- Sunna: Nangong, Nangong... what do you think Ms. Cecilia's big surprise will be?
- Nangong Yu: My dear Sunna, that's the twelfth time you've asked~
- Sunna: B—B—But I really want to know... *Sigh* Now that the moment's here, I'm actually getting a bit nervous.
- Cecilia: No need to stress, Sunna! My little angels totally crushed it this time!
- Cecilia: Rather than calling you the best versions of the Angels of Delusion, I'd say you've shown me a whole new side to the Angels of Delusion~
- Aria: Hehe, looks like our training is paying off, Ms. Cecilia...
- Sunna: Oh right, oh right! The surprise! What's this big surprise you promised, Ms. Cecilia?
- Cecilia: The surprise is... that the Angels of Delusion successfully scored a gig at the 404 Error Live House!
- Sunna: ...
- Cecilia: Hmm, Sunna's not reacting at all? Oh man, maybe the surprise I prepared was a bit too ordinary...?
- Nangong Yu: Ms. Cecilia! Wait a sec! Sunna's passed out!
- Sunna: *Cough cough cough*! I—I'm fine, Ms. Cecilia. D—Did you just say we're going to perform at 404 Live?
- Cecilia: That's right! Let's show the audience the best Angels of Delusion!
- Aria: That's great! But...
- Cecilia: Hmm, what's wrong, Aria?
- Aria: I... also want to share this good news with the assistant coaches.
- Nangong Yu: Yeah, I get you. I was even thinking of inviting them over to the show~
- Sunna: Though our time together with the assistant coaches online was brief... I've got this feeling we'll definitely meet again someday.
- Cecilia: Well then, my little angels better give it their all~ Who knows, your assistant coaches might be watching from the audience at your next performance.
- Nangong Yu: You're right, we can't slack off now~
- Aria: We gotta show off the best side of the Angels of Delusion at all times.
- Sunna: T—That goes without saying! Of course we'll always be the best Angels of Delusion!
Assistant Coach Event
Meanwhile, on the Other Side
Unlocks on Day 3 of Week 1.
- A few days ago, on the first morning of training...
- Belle: Fairy!! What's up with this "Professional Idol Assistant Coach" commission?!
- Wise: So the training target is the Angels of Delusion...?
- Belle: No no no, the real issue here is that we don't have any experience training idols at all, Wise!
- AI Assistant: Don't worry, Master. New Eridu's most capable AI assistant has already designed and arranged the training schedule for you.
- AI Assistant: Additionally, I have screened and contacted suitable assistants to meet the requirement of providing "professional training" to the client.
- Belle: You even contacted others... Fairy, you're moving way too fast!
- AI Assistant: I presume you might need this additional information: The commission fee for this task is ███ Dennies.
- Belle: That much?!
- Wise: Ahem, Fairy, we'll let it slide this time. But if there's a next time, I hope you'll discuss it with us first.
- AI Assistant: Affirmative. The request has been added to my to-do list with priority level "do as I deem fit."
- AI Assistant: Suggestion: For this commission, I recommend that you take on the role of "Mystery Assistant Coach."
- Belle: Huh? We can't reveal our identities? This feels like I'm on some secret mission...
- Wise: If Fairy suggests this, there must be a reason. At this point, let's just trust her.
- AI Assistant: Thank you for your understanding. Your best AI assistant will immediately draft your upcoming training schedule.
- Belle: Don't you think Fairy's been acting kinda weird... First taking on this commission by herself, and then actively reaching out to helpers...
- Wise: I have the same feeling... but if she has something in mind, we'll surely find out gradually during this process.
- Belle: Well, that's true but... Ah whatever, forget about it! Let's get familiar with the upcoming schedule instead. What's the training plan for day one?
- Wise: Uh... stacking blocks?
- Belle: Huh??
Starlight, Shine Bright!
Unlocks on Day 3 of Week 2.
- Belle: Hmm... As much as we'd like to give everyone some specific guidance...
- Wise: But looking at our dance skills... we've got to admit it's honestly quite a stretch.
- AI Assistant: Master, worry not. Your best AI assistant Fairy has already contacted the perfect candidate to help you.
- AI Assistant: Note: This assistant is an Intelligent Construct with flexibility and rhythm, possessing a lively and cheerful personality.
- Belle: Hmm... those traits sound so familiar... Fairy, don't tell me it's...!
- Mr. Starlight: Starlight! You guessed it right!
- Belle: Since neither of us is great at dancing, we invited Bil— Starlight as an assistant to guide everyone's dance training~
- Nangong Yu: Hi Mr. Starlight~
- Sunna: Hi, M—Mr. S—Starlight!
- Mr. Starlight: Oh yeah! Don't worry, guys! I'll make you shine on stage — just like starlight!
- Wise: You seem... particularly fired up today.
- Belle: Must be because he's being called "Mr. Starlight"... Ahem, I'm gonna play the song now~
- Mr. Starlight: Oh? This beat... It's perfect for a training song!
- Aria: ...Mr. Starlight, may I ask you a question?
- Belle: Hm? Of course you can, Aria!
- Aria: Are you... an Intelligent Construct?
- Mr. Starlight: Hmm... Did you figure it out from my voice? You're quite the observant one.
- Nangong Yu: Huh?! As an Intelligent Construct, how can you be as flexible as a rubber hose?!
- Mr. Starlight: Heh heh! This is what Mr. Starlight is capable of!
- Mr. Starlight: Nangong, your power and body control are fantastic! But you might wanna try softening your moves a bit — it'll make the rhythm flow even better.
- Nangong Yu: Soften... my moves. I get it now.
- Mr. Starlight: Hey, Sunna, no need to be so tense — it's okay if you mess up a step! Oh yeah, that's it! Just like that, more natural. You're making great progress!
- Sunna: I—I—I'm not nervous at all! Uh wait, is it left foot now... Oh no, do I raise my right hand?!
- Aria: ...
- Mr. Starlight: Hmm... Aria, when you dance, don't overthink it — just let your feelings reach the audience!
- Aria: O—Okay!
- Mr. Starlight: Yeah! That's perfect. Now let your dance moves do the talking!
- Mr. Starlight: Alright! That's a wrap on today's dance training. Everyone's made some serious progress!
- Nangong Yu: So even gentle movements can pack such power... Thank you, Mr. Starlight!
- Nangong Yu: Sunna's movements are now much more natural~
- Sunna: Let me speak for myself! You big meanie Nangong!
- Aria: Thank you, Mr. Starlight~ I think I'm starting to understand... how to express emotions through dance steps!
- Mr. Starlight: Uh-huh! This is all thanks to your hard work and training. That's a wrap on this dance training session. See you all later~
- Belle: Thanks for your hard work, Mr.~ Star~light~
- Mr. Starlight: Manager, please stop calling me that! Ahem, though I gotta admit, being called "Starlight" — man, that's awesome, hehe!
- Mr. Starlight: But Manager, why do we have to make up names for ourselves?
- Wise: Uh... a Proxy and a Hollow Raider? They aren't exactly identities we can make public. If their fans found out, it could lead to some nasty rumors...
- Belle: Yep, and who knows what kind of help Fairy's gonna bring in next... Better safe than sorry.
- Mr. Starlight: Ohhh! You're right! So thoughtful of you, Manager! This is definitely safer!
- Mr. Starlight: Well then, I'm logging off now~ See ya, Manager!
- Belle: Yep! See ya, Billy!
- Wise: Thanks, Billy. See you next time.
- Mr. Starlight: The Angels of Delusion, they're such good kids with real drive! If the tickets aren't too pricey, I'd love to support their show...
- Mr. Starlight: Huh, a new message... Did the Manager forget to tell me something? This link is...
The Tiger's Ferocious Roar
Unlocks on Day 3 of Week 3.
- Master Tiger: Junior Belle, I'm still kinda scared...
- Master Tiger: They say "a tiger's roar makes all beasts tremble in the forest"... If I teach these idols, I just hope they don't scare all their fans away...
- Belle: We're not going to teach them the tiger's roar, Senior Sister! It's about "Qi" — we're asking you to come down the mountain to teach them how to properly utilize their breathing!
- Wise: Ahem, well... if they could learn even half of your aura, wouldn't they have better control of the stage?
- Master Tiger: Hehe, you just hit the nail on the head! Junior Wise is right... I'm ready!
- Belle: Alright, let's get connected~
- Nangong Yu: Hey, assistant coaches~ You're finally here! Today's training is something about... the "art of breathing"?
- Master Tiger: That's right! I am none other than the Master Tiger, invited here to teach you all the "art of breathing"!
- Sunna: Ms. Tiger's voice... sounds kinda cute...?
- Belle: It's Master Tiger! Master, this is just a little greeting joke... Master?
- Master Tiger: Wait... j—j—j—junior! One of our little friends here isn't breathing! Quick! We gotta save her!!
- Nangong Yu: Huh? No one's... Wait, Aria! Aria, breathe!
- Aria: Huh? Ah! Sorry! I'm breathing...! Exhale... inhale...
- Sunna: S—S—She's just warming up! Yeah, that's right. She's just holding her breath to get warmed up for training!
- Master Tiger: Phew, that's a relief... Looks like you've mastered the art of playing dead, my friend... You even had me fooled for a second!
- Wise: Ahem! Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, let's officially begin the training.
- Belle: Alright, training track... Let's pick this one. And... play!
- Sunna: Ha... ha... ha...
- Master Tiger: Hmm... Sunna, your breathing is a bit shallow. Watch how I do it — breathe deep and feel your diaphragm expanding, nice and steady...
- Sunna: Hmm... focusing my breath using my diaphragm, a bit deeper... Wow, it really works! Singing doesn't feel as tiring anymore!
- Master Tiger: Nangong, your breathing seems a bit rushed... Control your breathing more during big movements — in slowly, and out slowly...
- Nangong Yu: Control my breathing with the rhythm of the movements... *exhale*... Wow, it's actually working!
- Master Tiger: Hmm... Mmhmm...
- Belle: Master Tiger...? What about Aria?
- Master Tiger: Junior Sister, it's my fault for not being skilled enough! I've got nothing to teach Aria! She's a master!
- Master Tiger: Such rock-solid presence... I've only ever felt it from Yixuan Shifu and Banyue Shifu!
- Aria: Um, so... what do I need to do?
- Wise: Master Aria, you've already graduated from this training...
- Aria: Huh???
- Nangong Yu: Wow... impressive, Aria!
- Sunna: A—As expected of Aria...
- Master Tiger: My dear juniors, mission accomplished! Nangong and Sunna, you're both such bright and determined kids!
- Belle: Thanks for your hard work, Senior Sister!
- Master Tiger: Though, I suggest you tweak their training schedule a bit.
- Wise: Why do you say that, Senior Sister?
- Master Tiger: I looked over the training schedule and noticed some of the sessions are pretty intense, even for a mystic...
- Belle: The difficulty's THAT high?!
- Wise: Mm, thanks, Senior. We'll think about it carefully.
- Master Tiger: Alright, I'm logging off now~ Oh, and don't forget to come by the temple for a meal whenever you can... Without you guys around, Junior Yinhu's char siu buns are starting to turn back into plain steamed buns!
- Wise: Belle, what do you think?
- Belle: Maybe... we should tweak the training system a bit. I do think the recent training's been a little too intense...
- Wise: Hmm, although Fairy will control the training intensity... it's still best not to let them practice to the point of exhaustion...
- Belle: Yeah, too much of anything is bad! Overtraining will only hurt your body!
Work Hard, Play Harder!
Unlocks on Day 3 of Week 4.
- Belle: Wise, are our adjustments to the training system really working? Everyone seems to be under even more pressure now...
- Wise: Hmm, I'm a bit skeptical too, since everyone fell asleep from exhaustion during our last online session...
- Belle: Could it be... that Fairy rearranged the schedule again? Fairy! Huh, seems like Fairy's not around...
- Wise: Let's start today's training then. We can ask her about it after we're done.
- Belle: Hmm— Today's training course is perfect for the current Angels of Delusion! The assistant should be...
- 100%Danger50%Concern: Well, well, well~ These young'uns nowadays, all of 'em with their fancy ideas. Looks like they need some guidance from lil' ol' me who's been 'round the block.
- Nangong Yu: *Gulp* *gulp* Hah... Yeah, Sunna's little schemes have been getting more frequent lately... Here, pour me another! *Gulp*...
- 100%Danger50%Concern: Oh~ That's quite a way to down it, young'un. What flavor of Nitro-Fuel ya got there?
- Nangong Yu: Of course it's 100% freshly squeezed juice!
- OuterRingFuelGod: HAHAHAHAHA! Wow, I had no idea backstage could be this much fun!
- Sunna: Is... Is this fun...? Ugh, well, at least it's better than being up on stage...
- Sunna: I still prefer writing songs backstage... Sure, performing has its happy moments, but getting up there is still too much for me!
- Sunna: I still remember my first time on stage... I messed up the very first move, boo hoo...
- OuterRingFuelGod: Wow, that's super amazing! So you're saying you were the center of attention from your very first step on stage!?
- Sunna: W-W-What— I—I don't want to be the center of attention!!!
- Belle: Wise, um... did I do something wrong when I launched the connection?
- Wise: Heh, I think this is quite nice, and everyone could use a chance to unwind right now. Hey, have you seen Aria?
- Aria: ...
- Belle: Hmm... Aria seems pretty out of her element in this kind of atmosphere...
- Aria: Ah, assistant coaches, you're here.
- Sunna: Assistant coaches! W—We haven't been slacking off, I'm ready for training!
- Nangong Yu: Hey assistant coaches~ What's on the training schedule today?
- Belle: Oh come on Sunna, don't be so tense! Today's training is... to kick back and chill! Hehe, everyone can just take it easy and recharge~
- Sunna: HHuh, for real? No training today? Long live the assistant coaches!!
- Nangong Yu: Oh ho? So Sunna doesn't want to train with us that badly, huh? That's kinda heartbreaking...
- Sunna: No, no, no! That's not it! I'm actually really happy to be training with you two...
- Wise: Alright, alright, Nangong, stop picking on Sunna at a time like this.
- OuterRingFuelGod: Oh, right! At a happy moment like this, we should... throw an online Nitro-Fuel party!
- Belle: Wait wait wait, no you can't!!
- Wise: As expected of Burnice and Piper... They really know how to, uhhh... live life to the fullest...
- Belle: Yeah! The assistants Fairy found and the training schedule she arranged are just perfect. Nice work, Fairy!
- Wise: Fairy? Hmm... Strange, there's still no response even after Belle praised her...
- Belle: Hold up, Wise... Something's off. There are some extra signal transmission logs on the HDD...
Special Training Events
Aria
Best Idol
Aria's Proficiency Level reaches Lv. 1.
- Anby: Proxy, will you really treat me to a burger after I complete this "Training Assistant" mission?
- Wise: Burger... Ah, yes, of course. Don't worry, Anby. Just make sure you help us get this assistant coach job done properly...
- Belle: But I feel like Anby still hasn't quite figured out what being an "idol" actually means...
- Wise: Indeed... but it's fine. It shouldn't affect our work... probably...
- Belle: Hey, hold on, Wise. Aria looks like... she hasn't quite gotten into the right mindset yet?
- Aria: ...
- Belle: Ariaaaa!
- Aria: Ah... the assistant coaches! Sorry, sorry. I think I lagged out for a moment...
- Anby: During the idol events, you need to stay alert at all times... Otherwise, you'll put yourself and your teammates in danger.
- Belle: You really have no idea what being an idol is about! But I suppose you're not totally wrong...
- Wise: You must be thinking about that incident with Astra. Yeah, that one was pretty dangerous, haha...
- Aria: I may not really get what you're talking about... but it's about combat, right? Th—That's something I actually know a bit about!
- Belle: Combat...? Wait, Aria, aren't you an idol? Don't tell me you all have secret missions to carry out?
- Aria: Nah, it's not like that... Our agency is always short on money, so we have to dive into the Hollow to make ends meet...
- Aria: Over time, I've picked up a few tricks for fighting Ethereals... Nothing more than that!
- Aria: If the fans of Angels of Delusion ever learned about this, they'd probably be worried about us...
- Aria: No, it's more than that... Maybe once they learn the truth behind what an "idol" really is, they'll...
- Anby: Aria, you do know what a burger is, right?
- Aria: Burger...? Y—Yeah, I know what that is!
- Anby: Whether it's mustard or ketchup hiding under that bun, it doesn't change the fact that burgers are delicious.
- Belle: Looks like... you're using burger as a metaphor!
- Anby: Yeah. Both the surface and what's inside are parts of who you really are... That's something my closest friends taught me, and now I'm passing it on to you.
- Wise: Yeah, and Aria's desire to bring hope and happiness to everyone as an idol is something truly genuine.
- Belle: A round of applause! That's our best training assistant!
- Aria: Genuine, huh... Hmm, I think I'm starting to understand something... Thanks, assistant coaches!
- Wise: We just did what assistant coaches are supposed to do. Now that I think about it, you actually feel quite different on stage compared to off stage, Aria...
- Belle: Yeah! You're full of energy on stage, but off stage... You seem a little shy!
- Aria: Huh? R—Really...? Maybe it's just that once I'm on stage, everything else slips right out of my mind...
- Aria: Like this— ♪ Aria's not nervous at all, her heart is filled only with her audience ♪
- Nangong Yu: Uhh...
- Sunna: Uhh...
- Assistant Coach: Uhh...
- Aria: Eh!? How did I start singing without even noticing...? And Nangong, Sunna, when did you suddenly...?
- Nangong Yu: ♪ Aria's not nervous at all, her heart is filled only with her audience ♪
- Aria: S—S—S—Stop singing, ahhhh!
The "Perfect" Voice
Unlocks when Aria's Proficiency Level reaches Lv. 3 and when Best Idol is completed.
- Aria: ♪ Ahh la la la la la— ♪
- Belle: Wow! Aria, that was beautiful!
- Sunna: It makes me so happy to hear you sing my song, Aria!
- Aria: Thanks, everyone, but...
- Aria: Hmm? Judging by Aria's expression, she seems... a little unsatisfied...
- Nangong Yu: This happens all the time~ Aria is very strict about her own singing.
- Belle: But to amateurs like us, she already sounds amazing! I honestly can't hear anything wrong with it...
- Nangong Yu: Even in the eyes of professionals, she sings incredibly well!
- Nangong Yu: But you know... Aria has her own standards when it comes to music, and she won't rest until she finds that perfect solution~
- Aria: Um, sorry everyone, could we try it together one more time?
- Sunna: Of course! When I kept messing up, you went over the dance steps with me again and again, didn't you?
- Aria: Mm...! Thank you, everyone!
- Aria: ♪ La la la la la~ ♪
- Belle: Even though I've heard it before, I still can't help but marvel... Aria, your voice is just heavenly.
- Aria: ...
- Wise: But judging by Aria's expression, she still seems a bit unsatisfied...
- Aria: S—Sorry! Maybe to the assistant coaches, my singing already sounds pretty good...
- Aria: But I can feel it myself, there was one part I didn't handle quite right when I was singing that song...
- Aria: This tiny flaw might slip by at first, but it still disrupts the harmony of the whole song...
- Aria: Can you give me a moment to think it through? ...Please! You can all go on with the rest of your training for now.
- Wise: Alright, Aria. Think it over for a bit while we work on the dance part.
- Nangong Yu: ...Thank you, assistant coach, for giving Aria the chance to work on it.
- Nangong Yu: But... isn't Aria being a bit too hard on herself? Most people probably wouldn't even notice that tiny flaw...
- Nangong Yu: She's the one among us... who cherishes the stage the most.
- Nangong Yu: Being able to sing for others is probably more important to her than anything else.
- Sunna: Yeah! Aria has her own principles, and as her teammates, we should support her unconditionally!
- Sunna: And everything she does is for the sake of giving everyone an even better performance!
- Wise: Heh, it seems we assistant coaches still have plenty to think about...
- Aria: I've got it! If I add a small vocal run before that high note, it should smooth out that rough spot!
- Sunna: Huh? Aria, did you figure out a solution?
- Aria: Mm-hmm! Listen! —♪ La la la la la~ ♪
- Belle: Wow! It's just a tiny change, but it really sounds completely different now!
- Nangong Yu: As expected of our "Perfect Idol," Aria~
- Aria: Nangong, you always say that... You're making me blush!
Power of Support
Unlocks when Aria's Proficiency Level reaches Lv. 6 and when The "Perfect" Voice is completed.
- Belle: Today's training session is a little special, and it's—
- Sunna: And it's—?
- Wise: Well, since everyone's been practicing pretty hard lately, we've arranged a comment-reading session.
- Aria: Huh!?
- Nangong Yu: Hmm~ Reading fan comments? I didn't know the assistant coaches had planned such an interesting event~
- Belle: Yeah! I bet everyone has at least some idea of how their fans see them!
- Wise: However, going through the comments together should help everyone better grasp the team's overall style.
- Belle: So, ta-da! We've filtered out some specially targeted comments for everyone!
- AI Assistant: Here are the search results. Angels of Delusion members, please read them out loud, word for word.
- Sunna: W—W—Word for word!? Are you sure this isn't some kind of punishment...?
- Nangong Yu: Then I'll go first~ "Nangong is an adorably sweet and cool little devil." Wow, even I'm getting a little shy reading something like that~
- Sunna: The terrifying Nangong actually said that in such a calm tone!
- Sunna: D—Do I really have to read this...? *sniff* "Come to big sis, you adorable crybaby Sunna"...
- Sunna: W—W—W—What is this!? It's... It's way too embarrassing!
- Belle: Now... it's Aria's turn!
- Aria: "I love Aria's singing. Wherever her voice reaches, it feels like sunlight pouring in." ...So there are people who see me that way...
- Wise: Hm? Why does it feel like the tone of Fairy's selected comments suddenly shifted the moment it got to Aria...
- Belle: Oh really? Let me see... "Just seeing Aria's smile makes me smile from the heart," "The perfect idol bursting with energy"...
- Wise: I have a feeling...
- Belle: Those over-the-top comments suddenly feel... kinda comforting?
- Nangong Yu: Hehe~ Because Aria really is like a ray of sunshine on stage~
- Nangong Yu: Always bursting with energy and spreading joy on stage, you're basically the textbook definition of an "ideal idol"!
- Wise: Seeing Aria like that, fans probably feel nothing but warmth and comfort.
- Sunna: ...Quite a contrast to someone like me, who can trip just walking onto the stage...
- Wise: Hmm, I think all three of you have your own unique charm. Without any one of you, it just wouldn't be the Angels of Delusion anymore.
- Belle: Exactly! Aria's endless optimism, Sunna's clumsy growth, Nangong's bold mischief... they're all part of what makes up the Angels of Delusion!
- Aria: Mmh...! Thank you, assistant coaches. Reading these comments makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside...
- Aria: Just thinking about how many people love my singing and are touched by my performances... makes me so happy.
- Belle: So even while offstage, you should trust in that love from your fans, Aria!
- Aria: Mhm! I'll try my best to be more confident!

- Sunna: Ah... Someone like me is probably better off staying backstage...
- Belle: Sunna, what's wrong?
- Belle: Fairy, help us check the training records.
- Nangong Yu: Yeah, step to the left next... Sunna, wait!
- Sunna: Ahhhh! I can't stop! Get out of the way!
- Sunna: Ouch... Xiao'Yu! Are you okay!?
- Nangong Yu: No biggie~ But you should be careful, don't trip!
- Aria: La~ ♪ la la la~~~~♪
- Sunna: La-laaaa—! *cough cough*! *cough cough cough*!
- Aria: Sunna... you okay? Perhaps we should hit a slightly lower harmony...
- Sunna: *sobs* It's all my fault... I can't dance well, I can't reach the notes, and I'm just dragging Nangong and Aria down...
- Belle: Hmm... this situation... feels like it could use a little encouragement...
- Wise: So even someone as amazing as you, Sunna, has worries too, huh.
- Belle: Wise, don't say it so flatly! Put a little feeling into it!
- Sunna: A—Amazing!? A—Are you talking about me!?
- Wise: Of course. It's thanks to the amazing Sunna that Nangong and Aria can truly show their talents.
- Wise: Right, my fellow assistant coach?
- Belle: Yeah, totally! Sunna, you are totally amazing. You can create so many great songs all on your own!
- Sunna: I—It's not like I do it all alone... Everyone's been giving me inspiration...
- Wise: But without you, Sunna, a song like this wouldn't exist.
- Belle: Yeah! And without a song like this, the Angels of Delusion would be like losing both the angels and the delusion!
- Wise: Sunna... you have many other virtues too, yeah?
- Belle: Your dance moves are super adorable, and your harmonies are always so creative, and even your clumsy little movements feel lively and full of charm!
- Wise: Most importantly, every Angels of Delusion song was written by you — that's something most idols could never do.
- Sunna: Y—You guys, flattering me like that won't get you anywhere, I'm not that amazing~ Ehe, hehehe~
- Sunna: Wait... training! Right, we still haven't finished today's training yet!
- Nangong Yu: Mmm~ mmm~ I'm still waiting for the super~ amazing Sunna to fall into my arms again.
- Sunna: Wh—What! Nangong, don't say things like that! ...I won't be that careless and crash into you again!
- Aria: A—Anyway, let's get back to practicing the new song! Thanks, assistant coaches. We should be able to continue training...
- Belle: Phew... Sunna's back on her feet again. That's a relief.
- Wise: Mm. She's always wanted to keep up with the team, so she probably ended up putting too much pressure on herself.
- Belle: Nice reflexes there, Wise, you deserve some praise!
- Wise: I'm used to comforting my short-tempered little sister, so I've gotten pretty good at it... Ouch! You're still so rough...

- Sunna: Whether you're dreaming or not, the Angels of Delusion will always be here waiting for you!
- Sunna: Nah... It sounds like the opening line of some variety show...
- Sunna: Hi everyone~ We're the super sweet, super cute Angels of Delusion~
- Sunna: No, that doesn't sound right either... Everything I come up with feels off... But when those two say it, it somehow sounds completely normal...
- Nangong Yu: Hmm~ What sounds normal?
- Sunna: ...
- Aria: Uhhh...
- Sunna: Y—You all saw it just now?
- Aria: We saw everything~
- Belle: Mhm... Actually, we're here too.
- Sunna: ...
- Sunna: Aaaaahhhhhh!
- Nangong Yu: Lucky we got here early and didn't miss Sunna's awesome show! What were you up to just now?
- Wise: I could probably hazard a guess... Is Sunna trying to imitate Aria and Nangong?
- Aria: Imitating... us?
- Sunna: Um, b—because Aria and Nangong both have such unique styles, they shine so brightly on stage...
- Sunna: And I... I can't do much well. I'm just a former backstage staff member who got shoved onto the stage...
- Nangong Yu: Stop right there! Sunna, you are the soul of the Angels of Delusion. You can't just go around belittling yourself like that!
- Nangong Yu: Right, assistant coaches? Without Sunna, the Angels of Delusion would be like New Eridu without its music!
- Belle: Yeah! Your music is what truly defines the delusions!
- Sunna: Is my music... really delusional?
- Nangong Yu: Yeah, Angels of Delusion was never a fully formed group. We're more like you, Sunna — growing and sprouting in our own clumsy, awkward way!
- Sunna: Nangong... B—But do the fans really like me the way I am...?
- Belle: Of course! You have a charm that's completely your own, Sunna, something neither Aria nor Nangong has~
- Aria: Mhm. Actually, Sunna has quite a few loyal fans following her... Look!
- Aria: "Sunna's dancing is getting better and better!", "She's so radiant, always improving!", "That's the true charm of training!"
- Aria: Sunna, after seeing these comments, you can believe we weren't lying to you...
- Nangong Yu: Hmm~ The Sunna that keeps improving is an irreplaceable part of the ever-improving Angels of Delusion~
- Sunna: Xiao'Yu... Aria... and the two assistant coaches... *sniff*...
- Nangong Yu: Oh, and this one! "Don't you think Sunna is the cutest when she's being clumsy, once you get used to it?" That's a compliment~
- Sunna: Th—That one doesn't count!!
- Sunna: Honestly, where did you even find so many... comments like that?
- Belle: Mhm~ As an idol, listening to your fans is really important, you know!
- Belle: As your ever-reliable assistant coach, I've already filtered out all the useful comments for you!
- Wise: Ah, looks like Fairy's moment to shine got squeezed out.

- Chaotic Fried Rice: Second, I need to be careful with my voice when singing — I absolutely can't let anyone know I'm Astra Yao!
- Chaotic Fried Rice: Third... I can't quite remember. But the point is we absolutely can't let my identity slip! Really now, Belle and Wise. You two are just like Eve this time~
- Belle: Alright, alright, be careful, okay! Wise, start the connection!
- Wise: This really makes me... understand Evelyn's point of view a bit more.
- Sunna: Hmm hmm hmm, la, la la...la? (Yep, just like that! Wait...the melody still isn't quite right.)
- Belle: Sunna~ Time to start today's training!
- Sunna: ...
- Sunna: La– la la, la la la– (That's right! Just need to tweak this a bit–)
- Wise: Sunna? About today's training schedule...
- Chaotic Fried Rice: Shh—! Keep it down, assistant coaches~
- Sunna: ♪♪♪– (Play it out! Write it down! Can't let that melody slip away!)
- Wise: Sunna seems to be in some kind of... peculiar state. Miss Fried Rice, do you have any idea what's going on?
- Chaotic Fried Rice: Hehe~ Leave it to the professionals at times like this! Just give me a moment.
- Sunna: ♪♪! (No way! This melody is way too basic, it doesn't scream "Angels of Delusion" at all!)
- Belle: Looks like Sunna's in a pickle...
- Chaotic Fried Rice: ♪~♪♪~~♪! (Maybe we could try extending the melody like this~)
- Sunna: !
- Sunna: ♪，♪~~♪♪...(Yes, yes! This way the following track can have room for more variations while the chorus can better stir up emotions, and then we can add some playful little designs in there!)
- Chaotic Fried Rice: ♪–♪! (That's right! Adding little surprises can sometimes lead to unexpected delights!)
- Sunna: ♪... (The melody is already great, but somehow I feel...)
- Chaotic Fried Rice: ♪... (It's missing a key something...)
- Belle: Ding—!
- Chaotic Fried Rice: !
- Sunna: !
- Belle: Uh, Wise... why did they both freeze up like that?
- Wise: Umm... I'd first like to know what exactly you're up to, my dear sister.
- Belle: I—I just feel like this is the only way I can be part of their conversation...
- Chaotic Fried Rice: Wow, the assistant coach is such a genius~
- Sunna: Yes, yes! That's it! Why didn't I think of that!
- Sunna: Adding another timbre at this point would make the piece more lively and instantly grab the audience's attention. That's what makes this piece uniquely...
- Sunna: Huh... Assistant coaches? When did you... Ow! Nangong, why'd you hit my head!
- Nangong Yu: Great, great, Sunna hasn't gone off the deep end. We've been listening here for ages!
- Sunna: I—I—I just happened to... to get a little inspiration, that's all...
- Belle: Your tone's back to the usual Sunna again~
- Sunna: Oh, oh, right! You must be Miss Fried Rice that the assistant coaches mentioned before! Thank you, miss, but can we end today's training here? I want to go back right away... and write down the inspiration I just had!
- Sunna: Thank you so much! I—I—I've never felt anything like this before! It's like our hearts were connected through music...
- Chaotic Fried Rice: Mhm, I really enjoyed being a training assistant this time too~
- Wise: In that case, you should head back quickly before the inspiration slips away, Sunna.
- Chaotic Fried Rice: Whew... I'm so happy! It's been forever since I've had such a pure musical exchange!
- Belle: I can't believe music can do something like this... Astra and Sunna are both so amazing!
- Chaotic Fried Rice: It's not that big of a deal~ We're just connected through music...
- Sunna: Hey Nangong, listen! During training just now, I—I—I think I heard Astra's voice...
- Nangong Yu: Don't tell me you've actually gone off the deep end...?
Nangong Yu
A "Hard-Working" Genius
Unlocks when Nangong Yu's Proficiency Level reaches Lv. 1.
- Nangong Yu: Hmm~ Special training? I didn't expect the assistant coaches to think I needed some one-on-one practice too~
- Belle: That's just what we call it! All three of you will have to go through it. This way we can better observe each member's unique traits...
- Nangong Yu: Hmm~ This little bit of dance practice? Easy peasy~
- Belle: Wow! Such strong rhythm, and every move hits exactly right...
- Wise: So... next up is vocal training.
- Nangong Yu: ♪ La la la la la la la ♪
- Wise: Hmm, your breath control is steady, and both the high notes and the runs came out perfectly...
- Nangong Yu: All done with today's training? Then I'll log off for now~
- Wise: Ah, alright. Good work today, Nangong.
- Nangong Yu: Wise! Nangong is incredible...
- Wise: As expected of a genius from the Angels of Delusion.
- Note: Observation indicates that Nangong is in observation mode
- Belle: Huh? But today's training schedule is already finished.
- Wise: Belle, shall we open a remote link to the practice room?
- Nangong Yu: Hmm, Aria's overall performance looks good, but this part of the choreography feels a bit stiff. Let's keep that in mind for the next routine.
- Nangong Yu: Sunna... I should give her some extra practice to reinforce the basics, though she's already working really hard.
- Nangong Yu: And as for me... during the chorus, my voice still feels a bit dry and rough. Hmm, I'll put in some extra practice on that part tonight.
- Belle: Nangong! Why are you still practicing?!
- Nangong Yu: Whoa, you scared me! Oh, it's you, assistant coach~
- Wise: Sunna and Aria's training review... and your own extra practice plan...
- Belle: Nangong, so that's what you were busy with! No wonder you finished your daily training so quickly!
- Nangong Yu: Well, I am the leader, after all~ It's just one of my responsibilities, you know.
- Wise: That's a pretty strict schedule... Nangong, aren't you pushing yourself a bit too hard?
- Belle: Yeah, our schedule is already packed, and you're still giving yourself extra practice...
- Nangong Yu: Don't worry... I've always trained like this, so I'm already used to this level of intensity...
- Wise: Listen to the assistant coach, Nangong. That's enough training for today.
- Nangong Yu: ...It's my responsibility as leader, so I'm not pushing myself, really.
- Belle: No, no, no! Nangong, you're not allowed to practice anymore today! And from now on, you're sticking to the practice schedule the assistant coaches set for you!
- Nangong Yu: ...Hmm~ Alright, if the assistant coach says so... If I keep insisting now, I'd just come off as stubborn.
- Belle: But those training reviews you put together are very useful, so I'll just go ahead and use them as a reference, hehe!
- Nangong Yu: Wow, what a sneaky assistant coach! But hey, as long as it works~
- Wise: Heh... we definitely won't let you down, Nangong. Let us carry a bit of that "leader's responsibility" with you.
- Nangong Yu: ...Hehe, my assistant coaches are really dependable! Alright then, good night~
- Belle: Nangong... She is really incredible, Wise.
- Wise: Mm, I suppose that's what you'd call a genius.
- Belle: You mean a "hard-working genius," right~
What Dennies Can't Do
Unlocks when Nangong Yu's Proficiency Level reaches Lv. 3 and when A "Hard-Working" Genius is completed.
- T A T: I mean, I'm kinda flattered you called me for help, but I honestly don't know much about this whole idol stuff...
- Belle: It's okay! Remember when you did that poster shoot before? It's pretty similar to that...
- Sunna: Nangong, you rascal! How could you do that again?!
- T A T: Aaaaah! N—No no wait, I wasn't scared! *Ahem ahem*!
- Nangong Yu: Waaah, Sunna's being a big meanie and picking on me~
- Belle: Nangong, there aren't even any tears on your face!
- Wise: What's going on?
- Aria: Oh, it's the assistant coaches! Well, here's what happened...
- Aria: We had it all arranged. In the morning, we were supposed to take a long-distance bus to the Outer Ring for the recording...
- Sunna: But right as we were about to leave, a black luxury car suddenly pulled up at the intersection, and — whoosh — it whisked us straight to the destination...
- Sunna: This must've been a car Nangong booked in secret! She clearly promised me she wouldn't use her own money to support the Angels of Delusion anymore!
- Nangong Yu: It's just that the Outer Ring is too far away~ If we took a bus to the studio, everyone would probably be worn out before we even got there...
- Belle: Alright, alright~ Aria, take Sunna to cool down a bit. We still have training today.
- Nangong Yu: *sigh*~ That troublesome Sunna... She never understands how hard I'm trying for her~
- Wise: Hmm... I think Sunna has a good reason to be angry.
- Belle: I agree!
- Nangong Yu: Huh? You all think I messed up...? Even Sunna's always telling me not to be wasteful when it's not necessary...
- T A T: Hmm... I think Miss Sunna might be feeling a little lonely.
- Nangong Yu: Lonely...?
- T A T: Yeah! It's that feeling of not being trusted and being left out. Actually, people around me often say I lack a sense of money...
- Belle: Hahaha, that's true! She almost became the boss of the Outer Ring biker crew... and she even signed up video-store memberships for everyone on the street!
- T A T: N—No, stop talking about it! ...Yeah, I did those things, but my friends... weren't as happy about it as I imagined.
- Wise: Because Dennies can't solve everything, and that's not the reason friends stay by your side.
- T A T: Hmm, so instead of solving everything with Dennies, it's better to talk things through with your friends first... That's a life lesson a friend taught me!
- T A T: Your teammates might be a little upset because they feel you're not trying to figure things out together with them.
- T A T: They're your best friends and teammates, so... shouldn't you be honest with them before taking action?
- Nangong Yu: Is that so... So that's how you think they feel... Actually, those two are the ones I trust the most.
- T A T: But some things can only be conveyed properly when you say them out loud.
- Nangong Yu: Hmm, thank you, assistant coaches. I think... I understand what I should do now.
- Belle: This training feels more like mental growth than improving techniques~
- Nangong Yu: Mhm~ All thanks to everyone~
- Sunna: Nangong, you rascal!
- Nangong Yu: Waaah, Sunna's being a big meanie and picking on me~
- Wise: Hmm? After talking with Alice yesterday, Nangong should've already understood...
- Belle: Hey Wise... This might just be a hunch, but what if Nangong actually did it on purpose this time?
- Wise: Hmm... Now that you put it that way...
- Nangong Yu: Eh-heh~
Your Guardian Angel
Unlocks when Nangong Yu's Proficiency Level reaches Lv. 6 and when What Dennies Can't Do is completed.
- Nangong Yu: Sunna, don't forget to change your hand gesture on the third beat~
- Nangong Yu: Aria, shouldn't you take a break? Your high notes sound a bit more strained than usual.
- Belle: (Stare)
- Nangong Yu: What's wrong... why are the assistant coaches staring at me like that? Hmm~ Could it be...
- Nangong Yu: Do you want to join our practice session too, assistant coaches?
- Belle: No, no! It's just that... seeing how seriously Nangong is taking care of everyone...
- Wise: You've got that leader vibe going.
- Belle: You're just like a big sis!
- Nangong Yu: Eh~ Is that really what you think of me, assistant coaches?
- Nangong Yu: Haha, come to think of it, with two little ones to look after, I really am the "big sis" here~
- Sunna: Hmph! Nangong, you're so childish — you're no big sis at all!
- Sunna: Ahhhh... Stop squishing my cheeks, I can't talk properly...
- Nangong Yu: Such a mischievous kid!
- Aria: N—Nangong, did I... did I enunciate that previous part right?
- Aria: Wait, why are you suddenly patting my head...
- Nangong Yu: Now this one's a good kid!
- Nangong Yu: Good kids deserve a reward. You get to sing your favorite set of vocal exercises!
- Nangong Yu: You naughty kid... You still can't get that set of moves right. You're not going home until you do it properly!
- Sunna: Heh heh, bet you didn't see that coming. I was planning to put in extra practice anyway!
- Nangong Yu: Well then, you can join the Good Kids Club too!
- Sunna: Y—Y—You! That's way too sneaky!!
- Belle: What about me? What about me?!
- Wise: *sigh*... You should stay out of this mess.
- Nangong Yu: You two are my little assistant coaches helping me manage the kids~ Alright, chat time's over, let's get back to training!
