Dialogue
Main article: Li (Bangboo) § Dialogue
HIA Club
- (Talk to Li and A-Shui - 12AM)
- I heard that a while back, Miss Miyabi and Yixuan Shifu had a sparring match using HIA equipment, and their combat was so intense that it actually caused the equipment to malfunction.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Those two Overtimeboos must be the maintenance staff who came to fix the equipment.)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Oh, they're both wearing name tags! Let's see... Li and A-Shui?)
- Li: As expected of a Grandmaster-Rank power, so effortlessly...
- A-Shui: Grandmaster?
- A-Shui: Hmph, if you ask me, Chief Hoshimi Miyabi's powerful output is totally — why we're stuck doing overtime!
- A-Shui: The power of the Void Hunter... so terrifying...
- Li: Hey! Nothing like this ever happened before Yixuan Shifu showed up!
- A-Shui: So... thanks to Yixuan Shifu for giving Miss Miyabi a chance to perform?
- Li: What's that supposed to mean!
- Two Bangboo get into a heated argument over their favored champions... A clash is about to go down!
- What an intense battle!
Even though Bangboo arms are short, I swear I just saw them... attacking each other with their elbows?!
Wait, since when do Bangboo know these fighting techniques? - After an all-out brawl, both Bangboo are knocked out cold!
- Staff: You two again, ugh.
Shouldn't we help them now?
Are we just leaving these two passed out here?- Staff: Don't worry about it. Those two are always throwing hands over the weirdest arguments... They'll get up on their own in a bit.
- Staff: After all, there's still a lot of work orders — they won't be sitting here for long.
- Sure enough, before long, the two Bangboo get up on their own and shuffle off to fix the equipment, muttering under their breath.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): ((Is this... what they call intense office politics? At least no one's work was affected...)(Is this... what they call intense office politics? At least no one's work was affected...) /
(W—Wow, what intense office drama! But it didn't affect their work at all...)(W—Wow, what intense office drama! But it didn't affect their work at all...)) - Fierce Office Politics Achievement Complete
Sixth Street
- (Talk to Li and A-Shui - 12AM)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): ((These two Overtimeboos... seem somewhat familiar.)(These two Overtimeboos... seem somewhat familiar.) /
(These two Overtimeboos... look kinda familiar.)(These two Overtimeboos... look kinda familiar.)) - Glance down at their name tags — yep, it's Li and A-Shui, who've been handling HIA equipment repairs! So they're... unwinding at 404 after hours?
- A-Shui: You have no clue how amazing the Angels of Delusion really are. They're way better than you think!
- Li: I'm not saying the Angels of Delusion isn't great — just saying Astra Yao's music is the most moving sound in all of New Eridu.
- Li: Just check out the streaming numbers online. Astra Yao's new song's got way more plays than the Angels of Delusion. Guess the junior's still gotta step up their game~
- A-Shui: One day, the Angels of Delusion will be as famous as Astra Yao! Three's better than one — the advantage is all ours. Just you wait!
- A-Shui: I believe if we just give them enough time, the Angels of Delusion will blow up all across New Eridu!
- Li: Fine, if you wanna trust them that much, cool... but you gotta admit Astra Yao's incredible!
- A-Shui: You too! If you'd just check out the Angels of Delusion, you'd fall for them too!
- Li: Big star! Big star! A big star's singing is what really hits!
- A-Shui: Little angels! Little angels! Little angels' stage is the most wonderful!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Whoa... A-Shui just stretches out its arms and starts cracking its knuckles, and Li... Li's doing (the same!the same! /
it too!)it too!)) - During what should be chill after-work hours, in the blazing atmosphere of 404, is another fierce showdown about to kick off between them?
- "Stop fighting, you guys!"
Just as the two sides are locked in dispute... another Overtimeboo wobbles over to join them. - Following the usual routine, I glance at the new customer's ID badge — it's Rabbitty, from the same division as Li and A-Shui.
- Rabbitty: You two are off the clock and still can't chill...
- Li: Rabbitty, perfect timing! I saw you liked Astra Yao's new single yesterday — you totally get where I'm coming from, right?
- A-Shui: What?! You just smashed the like button on the little angels' new stage fancam and swore you'd love the Angels of Delusion forever!
- Rabbitty: I... I like 'em both, okay?! Why's there gotta be a showdown between the superstar and the little angels anyway?
- Li & A-Shui: No way!
- Rabbitty: You guys are being totally unreasonable!
- Before anyone could react, Li and A-Shui each grab one of Rabbitty's hands, and in an instant, all three Bangboos are brawling.
Everyone thinks A-Tu is there to break up the fight between Li and A-Shui, but nobody expects it would end up joining the chaos. - As the performance music fades out, the three exhausted Overtimeboos, now each on their own, collapse side by side on the ground.
A man in an HIA uniform, looking utterly wiped, comes rushing over. - HIA Employee: Sorry about that! Didn't think those two would cause such a ruckus after their shift... Wait, why are there three of them now?!
They each have their own beliefs.- HIA Employee: Beliefs, huh... Guess we're not keeping them busy enough at work. Otherwise, why would they have time to throw down over something like this on their precious off-hours?
- HIA Employee: I brought them to 404 thinking they could kick back and relax, but look how that turned out — should've just kept them on duty!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Looks like nobody came out on top in this battle (ofof /
overover) love and idols...) - Intense "404" Battle Achievement Complete
