The Garden of the Stars, the core area of the Paradise Guild.

If Upside Down is the façade of Paradise, this is the base camp. An area that can only be accessed by members of the interior, and is now busy with the interference of the all-relay world that is about to arrive in the celebration. This celebration is one of the most important events in the park, and almost all guild members participate in it.

In the meeting room of the current festival's management committee, the members of the department that are presiding over the festival are gathering for a meeting.

"Why do you have a meeting? Isn't the preparation already at the end~~~ People really want to go back to playing games~~~Nep~~~"

A young girl, who looked rather young, grumbled, her head resting on the conference table with two D-pad hairpins swaying as she shook her head.

"You're the least qualified to complain, aren't you? Nepdinu. ”

A voice that gave people a serious feeling sounded from the side, it was a girl with a black double ponytail, and her serious attitude was reminiscent of the class leader.

"From preparation to arrangement, Nepdinu spends most of his time being lazy."

Then, the short-haired girl sitting across from Nepdinu also began to count in a cold, toneless voice.

"Although Nepdinu has always been like this, I still hope that you have a little self-consciousness as a goddess at this time."

On the other side, a beautiful woman with long blond hair and a plump figure also answered helplessly.

"Huh? Why did everyone start criticizing me? As the guardian goddess of the Purple Continent, I am very conscious of the hero! ”

The maiden, Nepdinu, protested in a lazy voice in the face of the siege of the crowd.

"I don't think Nepdinu is completely self-conscious."

A girl the size of a palm sat on a book and flew in front of Nepdinou.

"Look at this."

"Huh?"

Nepdinou's gaze looked below the maiden, Istval.

"Where are you looking! It's this! ”

Eastval shyly clutched her skirt and pointed to a power switch-like object beside her.

"Oooh! So shiny! ”

The dazzling light from the object made Nepdinu squint slightly.

"That's not the case! The faith energy inside has dropped! There is less faith to get from people! ”

"Huh? Isn't it a lot more than before? ”

Nepdinu looked surprised.

"What the hell are you comparing to?"

The two-ponytailed girl, Novalo, rubbed her forehead.

"Now we are not just a goddess of the 'game industry', but after becoming an intervener, the faith was obtained from the entire multiverse."

"That is to say......"

"Our goddess gains power through people's hearts of faith, and now faith has shrunk dramatically."

"Could it be my big crisis?"

Nepdinu stood upright, as if he had only now understood.

"You're not the only one in crisis."

Blonde beauty—Belu sighed with her face on her face.

"Why is this happening?"

Nepdinu looked to the left and right for answers.

"This."

I saw the short-haired girl on the opposite side, Puran, tap on the table a few times, and then a light screen appeared, showing a large number of lists and videos.

"Nepu ~~~?"

“……”

Puran's eyebrows twitched unhappily.

"This is a statistical table of faith collections, and the events that occurred during the period when the decline was most pronounced."

"Huh? What do you mean? ”

"That is to say, this is the reason !!"

Puran's expressionless face suddenly appeared furious, and his voice became rude.

"Uh...... This is...... Last celebration? ”

After looking at the screen, Nepdinu recognized it.

"It is in this way that faith has become less than it has since the last celebration."

Istval flew over Nepdinu's head with his legs crossed.

"The last celebration...... There are so many good songs, which are very interesting! ”

Nepdinu remembered the last time.

"But what does this have to do with us?"

"Do you remember which department hosted the last edition?"

Belle cupped her chest and reminded Nepdinu.

"I remember it's the idol department Nep."

Although all members of the park are preparing for the festival together, one of the departments is in charge, and the other departments are in charge. In order to ensure that each celebration is different and full of new ideas, the department in charge of each event is different. By the way, because there are so many departments in the park, they haven't been in charge of all of them once.

"Exactly. Aside from our video game club, they are the ones who collect the most about people's beliefs. ”

And with the last festival, the idol department gained incredible popularity! Whether it is their Cinderella series, or the Goddess of Music group, or later the Goddess of Water group, they have all received unprecedented popularity. As a result, we get a lot of faith, which leads to people not paying as much attention to us. ”

Novalo explained.

"So, what should I do?"

Holding his face nervously, Nepdunu finally had a sense of crisis.

"Originally, I was going to use this celebration to fully demonstrate the strength of our video game department, our goddess."

Puran sighed, and as you can imagine, it didn't go well.

"Very well, isn't that okay?"

"Not at all! Judging from the current popularity survey, people are not looking forward to our celebration at all. If this continues, it will be impossible to regain popularity. ”

Puran clenched his fists.

"Isn't this not the beginning yet? Maybe the popularity will rise when you start. ”

Nepdinu thought optimistically.

"How naïve! If you don't take your prior market research seriously, you'll hit your head and bleed! This is the experience that countless lessons have taught us! ”

"Ahaha. It is worthy of Ren Tianguo. ”

Nepdinu wiped his forehead as he looked at Puran, whose eyes were sharp.

"But now that we're here, can we still find a way?"

Nepdinu's question silenced the surroundings, and it was because they couldn't think of a way to hold a meeting.

"That's right! I've got it! ”

Everyone watched because of Nepdinu's words.

"Let's learn from the idol club and sing! I'm a good singer! Especially on Gundam. ”

"We're in the Game Department!"

Puran slapped the table hard.

"Each department should give full play to the expertise of each department, this is the principle of the celebration, if it is the same as everyone else, isn't it meaningless to us?"

Novalo shook her head.

"Sure enough, I still can't think of it, so I'd better find the goddesses of other dimensions, or directly ask everyone for advice, right?"

Belle came up with a solution that wasn't the answer.

Everyone sighed sadly, and just then the door to the conference room suddenly opened.

"What's going on?"

I saw a dazzling figure appear at the door.

"Huhuhu! Are you struggling? Girls! ”

The other party was dressed in a standard sailor suit, with epaulettes on his arms and the word "super" on them, and for some reason he wore a mask on his face.

"Huh...... President. ”

Istval almost fell off the book with a look of surprise, and no one in the paradise would not know even the person in front of him with the mask.

"Do you want to call Chao? President! ”

The other man raised his arm, and then immediately retracted it.

"That's not right! I'm not a super-president, I'm a paradise mask! ”

I don't know when the word "super" on that epaulette became "fake".

"Are you distressed? Girls! ”

The other side repeated.

"Then it's up to me, Paradise Mask! Come and help you! ”

Novalo looked at Puran and Bellou at each other, wondering if they could pretend they hadn't seen anything.

"Really? That's great! Paradise Masquerade! Please! ”

Only Nepdinu's cheerful voice came out.
