[BSTS] Main Story The singer not the song 4 Translation

Lico: Saki~. Won’t you go on a day with me? Today’s weather is perfect for it.

Saki: Ehm, but right now there’ll be a performance.

Lico: Let’s just have some tea before the performance, it’ll fire me up.

Unei: Oh thank God here you are Lico-san. I have a message from the president, he wants you to meet him in the owner room.

Lico: Are you serious…? Aah, looks like this is the end for me.

Saki: What happened? You look troubled

Lico: I might get fired if I go. What should I do, Saki?

Saki: Eh? Fired? There’s no way you’ll get fired that suddently.

Sotetsu: Well it might jus happen. You just suck at supporting and it shows.

Lico: Shut up.

Sotetsu: However, wasn’t this kind of thing Kei’s job?

Lico: I’m a different matter, I’m in debt with that dude so I was told I could repay it by working here.

Sotetsu: Weren’t you making money by being a host? You told everyone you came here because you got bored of it.

Lico: Of course all of that was a lie. Only a bunch of hosts are able to make good money. I couldn’t get enought clients so I just wasn’t making money.

Sotetsu: You can just refuse to pay, you know?

Lico: When you have that old man as your enemy?  That’s impossible. “If you join Starless your debt will pay off” is what he said, it was impossible for me to refuse.

Sotetsu: And what if you earned money at Starless? Did he say what would happen then?

Lico: The fuck you mean by that.

Sotetsu: Nah, nohing.

Lico: I’m a host, I was hoping to take care of some women but this is not it.

Saki: You sure have it tough…

Lico: Yup, that’s right. I always do. Saki, be a doll and cheer me up?

Sotetsu: That won’t do. Kei hasn’t even chosen the starting members yet.

Lico: That’s not what I mean. I just want to be comforted in a time like this.

Saki: I get it. Good luck, Lico-san!

Lico:....... I didn’t think you’d actually do it.

Sotetsu: Isn’t that nice? You just got noticed by her.

Lico: Anyways, right now it’s impossible for me to earn money at Starless. To do that I’d have to be at least a starting member.

Sotetsu: And if you become the team’s top or it’s number 2, Haseyama will change his mind too.

Lico: That won’t do. At Team K it’s completly impossible to… hm? You’re saying any team will do, right…?

[BSTS] Main Story Stop Nagging Me 1 Translation

Chapter 1: Carrying the billboard

The new Starless had a renewal opening as the show restaurant “Starless”, and the performance of the new Team K “During the Demise” was a big success. 

But the owner, Haseyama, said: “the trial period will last three months”.

And the second performance was about to begin.

Akira: Yahoo~, Saki-chan. Just say it if your gonna come visit me.

Saki: Eh, um, ehm…

Meeting Akira for the first time

Being acquaintances

[The part within * is only for the first option, everything else is the same for both options after that.]

*

Akira: Eh? Why are you making that face? Did I say something weird?

Saki: No, uhm… Isn’t this our first time meeting?

Akira: What? No way! Is it the first time we talked? Sorry about taking so long. I’m Akira, you see. I’m Team W’s singer and…

The type who can’t help but reaching out to a cute girl like you when I see her. And the type who wants a cute girl like you to reach out to me. Come see me every day, ‘kay?

*

Saki: Y-you’re too close…

Akira: Whaaat? Don’t be so embarrassed with only this distance. Let’s become closer and closer and get along. Okay, Saki-chan?

Kokuyou: The hell are you doing, Akira? Are you stupid?

Akira: How mean! Kokuyou, you’re way too mean with me!

Kokuyou: Shut up and put the posters up at once.

Saki: Posters?

Akira: Yes, yes. Look at this poster, taraaan! Our Team W will be the protags next time!

Saki: Wow! It looks so cool!

Kokuyou: Stop getting in the way, Akira. Let’s go back before something annoying happens.

Akira: Eeeeeeeh? But I wanna talk to cute giiirls! I love cute girls like her.

Kei: The fact that she is beautiful is true, but that doesn’t mean she can be treated lightly.

Akira: Uh, Kei, where you watching?

Kokuyou: See, Akira. Because of you, the annoying thing came.

Kei: So you finally chose Team W’s standard members. I’m sure the former costumers will be pleased too.

Kokuyou: We’re Starless’ originals, don’t forget that.

Kei: Hmm… Does the Team W by any chance carry this place’s billboard with them?

Kokuyou: Of course we do.

Kei: With that ability?

Kokuyou: You really piss me off. We can fight whenever you want.

Saki: (T-this is bad…)

Akira: Yep, that’s enough, both of you~. Kokuyou, don’t get so angry~. Kei, please evaluate us after watching our performance. We’ll show you Team W’s true self. Right, Kokuyou?

Kokuyou: Of course we will. I’ll make your jaw drop.

Kei: Huh. I shall look forward to it.

[BSTS] Main Story Back in the BLACK EX 2 Translation

EX Chapter 2: My yard

Kei: Once again, from the top.

Kokuyou:... 

[Dance music starts and stops]

Kei: Once again, from the top.

Kokuyou: How many times are you gonna make me do this, huh!? We haven’t made any progress at all!

Kei: You’re not getting the basics, there’s no point in advancing.

Kokuyou: Over here we don’t have a pretty lil’ Team like you do. The momentum is way more important for us.

Kei:...I don’t feel like talking.

Kokuyou: That’s my phrase.

Kei: If the team’s pillar is that bad, the performance’s quality will not improve.

Kokuyou: Don’t get so smart with me, you’re only here because Haseyama chosed you as his dog.

Kei: That’s what you understood? The more stray dogs you take in the more territory you have.

Kokuyou: It’s better not having an owner with no honor.

Kei: It’s better being Haseyama’s pet dog than not being able to stand on stage.

Kokuyou: I don’t even recall recognizing him as the owner of this place. This restaurant is ours.

Kei: Is that the honor the former owner stood up for? The man who gave up management rights and disappeared without saying anything? You’re a loyal dog, Kokuyou. You won’t forget him even if you’re being thrown away.

Kokuyou: ... Say whatever you want. I have no reason to follow you.

Kei: Do as you like, then. The next performance will be done by Team W. Looks like Haseyama wants to crush W. Show me how you screw his plan down.

Kokuyou: You don’t need to say it twice.

End of the story.

[BSTS] Main Story Back in the BLACK EX 1 Translation

EX  Chapter 1: Floor staff

Kei: Today I’ll be the one escorting you. Consider it a “self-reward”

Saki: Self-reward?

Kei: Thanks to you I got to save this shop. As a reward, I’ll be escorting you today. (1)

Saki: I-I see… 

Rindou: Welcome.

Kei: Ah, today you’re serving at the floor as well. You’re not bad at customer service.

Rindou: I am thanks to the shift you ordered.

Kei: Don’t forget to hide your fangs. Save them for emergencies only.

Rindou: It always feels like it’s an emergency for me.

Kei: It’s too early now, the time will come. Remember I am not your enemy.

Rindou: What do you--

Kei: Enough talk. I’ll be escorting her now.

Rindou: Understood.

Sorry, I let you see something ungraceful. Please, enjoy your time here.

To be continued...

(1) I don’t know if he means it’s a reward for Saki or for himself, so I tried making it sound like a reward for both?

[TW human trafficking mention]

Chapter 6: Next Stage

[Audience clapping]

Haseyama: I’m grateful to the fact that it’s giving me money, but there’s no way I can enjoy a performance full of men. Unei!

Unei: Y-yes, President! I’m here!

Haseyama: How did the sales go? Are we earning properly?

Unei: Yes! We’re getting way more than the planned goal!

Haseyama: Huh, I see. Then for the next sales double the goal.

Unei: W-what? Doubling it it’s impossible… 

Haseyama: Huh? Why are you deciding on your own it’s impossible? The one who decides it is me. You just have to do as you’re told. C’mon, go clean up now.

Unei: Y-yessiiiiiiiir!

[Unei walks away]

Haseyama: Geez, a billion years will pass before he learns to not talk back. But we really did get to our goal. As expected from “Kei-sama”.

Kei: Did I just hear you compliment me?

Haseyama: Oop, so you came. Well, let’s just leave it like that. Honestly, that’s way more than I expected. 

Kei: Are you planning on maintaining this place alive?

Haseyama: At least for now.

Kei: …. 

Haseyama: It is what it is. I can’t promise anything for that one accomplishment. For now, it’s been a “trial period”. Don’t worry, I’ll be watching over for the next 3 months.

Kei:... Understood. 3 months was it? You better look forward to it.

Haseyama: At least I’ll be making money. Well, I’ll be going now.

Kei: … You damn commoner.

Haseyama: Oh, by the way, Kei-sama.

Kei: What.

Haseyama: You know, that little miss, she’s close to you too(1). If sales don’t go well I might sell her.

Kei: … 

Haseyama: That girl’s so popular, it’s incredible. Her value might even rise. If someone brings me up that idea I might accidentally say Ok to that~. That being said, I wouldn’t like that. Good luck.

Kei: … You damn commoner.

End of story.

(1) I have no idea of what Haseyama said Saki is, but given that context I thought he might be saying something like that EDIT: thanks mio for helping me out~~

Chapter 5: Against

Saki: Good afternoon~.

Rindou: Ah, Saki-san. Good afternoon. I didn’t know you were here.

Saki: Is everything okay? You look pale, did something happen?

Rindou: I just have to talk with Unei-kun for a bit…. Just something about our shift.

Kei: Unei still hasn’t arrived, but I’ll answer your questions.

Rindou: Eh? You will?

Kei: It’s about Team P’s sudden increase of work as staff, am I correct? I gave those instructions.

Rindou: Why did you do such a thing!? Why did you suddenly reduce our team’s performances without notice? We are performers, not restaurant staff.

Kei: You are according to the contract.

Rindou: But you have no right to chose that on your own. Please change it back.

Kei: I refuse. Right now your performance is merely an opening act for the audience.

Rindou: Opening act? There is no need to use such words.

Kei: You are aware of that. You don’t even catch the audience’s eyes. Team P is on the verge of breaking down. Your performances are uneven and unbearable to see.

Rindou: ….

Kei: Especially Mizuki. I heard from Maica that he doesn’t have even a bit of trust in you. The Top, the number two and the singer are falling apart. Don’t make me laugh.

Rindou:... You’re saying our stage is not worthy to be seen?

Kei: I want you to be working at the floor and watch as the audience.

[Phone ringing]

Kei: Excuse me.

[Kei walks away]

Rindou: …. Sorry, I showed you an uncool side of me. I know Kei’s right, but… There’s no way I’ll leave the stage just like that.

Chapter 4: Little guard dog

Kokuyou: Hey, Kei, you piece of shit. Don’t mess around.

Kei: What are you talking about.

Kokuyou: Why is that woman at our rehearsal? You’re just an outsider, fuck off.

Saki: I-I’m sorry.

Kei: Didn’t you accept that she’d start visiting this place?

Kokuyou: I don’t care if she comes here, but letting her watch our rehearsal is another story.

Kei: It isn’t about letting her watch, but… Only watching isn’t worthy.

Kokuyou: What did you just say, son of a bitch!?

Gui: … 

Kokuyou: Back off, Gui.

Gui: I won’t. Cool down, Kokuyou.

Kokuyou: …. Sighs. Why do you always have to be on Kei’s side?

Gui: Because Kei is master’s substitute.

Kokuyou: I don’t get you at all. Whatever, it’s not as if I want to fight you.

Kei: Where are you going, Kokuyou? Did you finish talking?

Kokuyou: I don’t feel like talking.

[Door closing]

Gui: Don’t you need him?

Kei: No, it doesn’t matter.

Meeting Gui for the first time

Being acquaintances

[The part within * is only for the first option, everything else is the same for both options after that.]

*

Kei: Saki, this is Gui. I don’t think you’ve met before.

Saki: Hi, Gui-san.

Gui: … Hi…?

*

Kei: Gui, don’t forget what I’m going to say now.

Gui: It’s an order?

Kei: It is. Gui, you have to protect her.

Gui: I have to…

Saki: (...!? Why did he get this close!?)

Gui: *sniff sniff* This person has Kei’s smell…

Kei: Yes. She is an important person for me.

Saki: (H-he’s saying that stuff again!)

Gui: Kei’s important person… understood. Do I have to protect her because she’s Kei’s important person?

Kei: That’s right, she’s been targeted. Protect her with all that you have.

Gui: Understood.

Saki: W-wait, Kei-san, what’s all of that “protecting” about?

Kei: As I said, you’ve been targeted. If something happens now I wouldn’t be surprised. Gui can be trusted. Don’t refrain, you can use him as you will.

Saki: But even if you say I’m targeted… 

Kei: You think it was a one-time thing at it won’t happen again? They won’t give up on you that easily. Gui, I’m counting on you.

Gui: Understood. If it’s a person important to master’s substitute, Kei, then it’s important for me too. Uhm…. What should I say in a situation like this?

Saki: Nice to meet you. (1)

Gui: Oh, I see. Nice to meet you, Saki. I’ll protect you no matter what. It’s a promise.

To be continued...

(1) She said “よろしくお願いします” wich can mean “nice to meet you” or “please take care of me”

Chapter 3: Understudy

Female customer 1: Lico, escort me to my seat~.

Female customer 2: Hey, don’t get in the way. I go first.

Lico: Ahaha, don’t fight for me, kittens. I’m late to practice, so I have to go now.

Female customer 1: Lico, when will you go onstage? I’m looking forward to it!

Lico: Hm… when our tyrant(1) Top stops being afraid of me, I guess. Until then, let’s meet here. I’ll give you a good service.

Female customer 2: It’s a promise, ok? I’ll be waiting for you.

Saki: (There’s that kind of person too…)

Lico: Even if you look at me with such burning eyes I don’t hate it, little bird.

Saki: L-Little bird!?

Meeting Lico for the first time

Being acquaintances

[The part within * is only for the first option, everything else is the same for both options after that.]

*

Lico: I am Lico, you see. I’m a new face who got here because of the renewal. You’re the girl Kei likes, right? Hey, why don’t you switch him for me? (2) It doesn’t sound bad, right? I’ll make sure to satisfy you. I’ll even carry you princess style or bridal style.

Come by my side, we’ll get along~.

*

Kei: Back off. You lack the qualifications to approach this beautiful princess.

Lico: Of course you had to come out, dictator. Customer service wasn’t your job.

Kei: It doesn’t matter, I was just dropping by. You should be going to practice by now.

Lico: What for? I’ll only work as under. (3) By the way, why am always under? Are you scared of my ability?

Kei: Who would be afraid of such a thing.

Lico: The half-and-half one is (4). If you let me go on stage it’d be visible.

Kei: ………..

The reason is simple. I do not need to be compared to a standard member like yourself. You can tell but that level of performance of yours, you’re too carefree.

Lico: What did you say!?

Kei: If you still aren’t convinced you can do the test again and see by yourself.

Lico: ….Huh, I see. Do you want to bow down to me that bad?

Kei: Only the real thing can shine on stage. Your ability… I’ll make you pray for it.

To be continued... 

(1) The actual translation was dominant top but I thought it’d be better to change that so it wouldn’t be misunderstood.

(2) Just a random fact but in host clubs, you usually have to pick up one host as the one you want to spend time with and you can only have him as your host when you go to the club. In some places, you can change the host you meet, but in others you can only see the one host you choose.

(3) “Under” is what they call the waiter kind of job they do when they’re not performing at the Starless stage.

(4) Lico says 仕切ってる which I’m not what means but something like divided? So I guess he’s talking about Kei’s hair being divided or something??

Chapter 2: Reserved seat

Saki: A lot of people came today… I wonder if I’ll find an empty seat.

Female customer 1: Ah, aren’t they Yoshino and Sotetsu? They’re coming over here!

Female customer 2: So today they’re working as staff, I want to be guided to my seat by them!

Meeting Sotetsu and Yoshino for the first time

Being acquaintances

[The part within * is only for the first option, everything else is the same for both options after that.] 

??? (Sotetsu): Aah… It’s probably this one. Kazami Saki. Is that your name?

Saki: Eh, ah, it is.

Yoshino: Welcome, Saki-san.

Sotetsu: Come over here, your reserved seat is over here.

Saki: Eh, uh, what’s the meaning of this...?

Female customer 1: Reserved seats…? Since when did the do that?

Female customer 2: Next time I’ll have to be prepared and reserve a seat as well. That girl sure knows about it.

Saki: (I don’t know anything about that neither, I’m sorry…)

*

Yoshino: Then I’ll take you to your seat. Ah, be careful, there’s a step in ther--- Agh!

Sotetsu: Aaaand he felt again.

Saki: Are you alright?

Sotetsu: It’s okay, it’s okay. Yoshino should be used to it by now.

Yoshino: T-t-that’s true, I-I’m fine… I’m sorry! Please, go ahead.

Sotetsu: We forgot to introduce ourselves. I’m Sotetsu, that’s just a stage name though.

Yoshino: I’m Yoshino, nice to meet you.

Sotetsu: Hey, how many years apart does it look like we are?

Yoshino: W-wait, Sotetsu, stop with that…

Sotetsu: Ahahaha. Just ignore him and answer. How many years apart does it look like we are?

Yoshino: Same age! We have the same age!

Saki: Eh?!

Sotetsu: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Did it surprise you? We’re the older ones in Team K. (1)

Yoshino: It’s just that you’re all too huge…

*

/

Saki: (This is truly an amazing place…)

Sotetsu: Why are you looking around so much? If you’re looking for your seat it’s over here.

Yoshino: Ah, Sotetsu, don’t rush. It looks like she’s enjoying the view.

Sotetsu: Hm? Oh, I see.

Yoshino: It has become an amazing restaurant. Compared to the previous one, it’s larger, prettier... If our customers feel comfortable in here it’ll make me so happy.

Sotetsu: Well, it might be larger and cleaner. But I liked that dull place it was before as well.

Yoshino: That’s true. Our former shop was smaller, but that was what made it so fun.

Sotetsu: It’s a large place. The more you look at it the more you’ll be able to see all the audience. Good luck, singer Yoshino.

Yoshino: Uuuh… please don’t say that. Right now I’m this close to ask Kei to sing in my place…

Sosetsu: Looks like Team K’s new singer stage fright is back.

Yoshino: Uuuuuuh…

Saki: U-uhm. By Team K you mean…

Yoshino: Ah, did nobody tell you? In this shop, we’re divided into three groups.

Sosetsu: Since this place existed there’s been Team W. Then when more members started coming here the Team P was created. And Team K is the last one. It was Kei’s idea.

Saki: Kei-san’s…? Now that you talk about it, I recall hearing about something like this before…

Yoshino: Kei just suddenly came up one day saying he wanted to form a new team, we were surprised too… But thanks to Kei, Starless is having a renewal opening.

Saki: Is that so?

Yoshino: Kei was the one who talked about it to the owner. I’m glad Starless didn’t disappear…

Sosetsu: You know, Saki, it was all because he wanted to see you. (2)

Yoshino: E-eh? Is that so? I know he said she was special, but...

Sosetsu: Well, he went through all the trouble of making this an underground place with performers from the “real world” who have to hide their real identities.

Yoshino: I definitely thought he had something to do with Koharu-san… How should I say it, I had the feeling that Kei’s performance kinda looked like Koharu-san’s…

Sosetsu: Huh? That’s probably just a coincidence. Ah, sorry. We talked too much. There’s a lot of things we still have to discuss, but we should be going for now. Go on and order something, the first one is on us.

Yoshino: Please, enjoy today’s performance. We’re here for that purpose.

To be continued...

(1): I had to look up everyone’s ages because I wasn’t sure if he meant Team K has de oldest members or they’re the oldest members from Team K….

(2): Lit. call you, but once again I couldn’t find a better way to translate it.

Mizuki: Auch! Who was it!? Who hit me from behind?

Ginsei: Over here, over here. Let’s run away together. Come on, before he stars dragging you. Take my hand, princess.

Saki: Nice to meet you, I’m Saki.

Ginsei: Kei asked me to come to pick you up.

Saki: Kei-san did?

Ginsei: Plus, he said you’re going to save Starless. Is that true?

Saki: No, um, that’s a surprise for me as well… I think that’s a misunderstanding…

Ginsei: Kei didn’t misunderstand anything. He’s never wrong.

Saki: Uh, I see…

Ginsei: Your face says you don’t believe it. But I’m sure you’ll be fast to understand. 

* 

Ginsei: You see, I thought Kei wasn’t interested in anyone. More like he didn’t want to be interested… That’s why your relationship with him concerns me.

Saki: U-uhm, I wouldn’t say we have a relationship…

Ginsei: It’s okay if you want to hide it. I don’t really care if it helps him. Let’s go, I don’t want to make Kei wait. I’ll carry your luggage for you, don’t be shy. … Well, you may look like a hostage like this.

Saki: (I have a bad feeling about this…)

Mizuki: HEY! GINSEI! I’m gonna destroy you!

Ginsei: Ah~. Too much trouble. Let’s go, princess.

Chapter 4: Bottomline

Kei: I’ll tell you a bit about this shop. Its name is “Starless”, it’s a show restaurant. You can eat while you watch a performance. The place I took you before was this shop’s hall floor. We are the cast that goes up onstage as well as the hall’s staff. There is a closed place that is being reconstructed right now, but…

/

Unei: I-I said that’s not good, the president isn’t free right now.

Mizuki: Why are you stopping me, Unei. Do you want me to kick your ass instead of that old man’s?

Unei: I-I don’t… Mokuren-san, please stop him!

Mokuren: Just let him do as he wants.

Unei: B-but…

/

Kei: I’ll tell you the names of that guys. That barking mad dog is Mizuki, and the bystander one is Mokuren. It’s not that hard to handle them. If it’s you it’ll be easy. Give me a minute, I’ll go put their collars on.

/

Kei: Behave yourselves.

Mizuki: Ah, Kei! Help me beat Haseyama’s ass!

Kei: Stop it, it’ll be impossible for you. And beating Haseyama will do no good either. Do you want to destroy this shop with your own hands?

Mizuki: Hah? The hell are you saying. Starless won’t fall down just like that.

Mokuren: So you’re doing it. Looks like you aren’t any fond of this place.

Kei: Why didn’t you stop Mizuki?

Mokuren: Stopping him was too troublesome, and I don’t care about that owner.

Kei: If you want to dance you need this place.

Mokuren: ………… Guess you’re right. Mizuki, don’t do anything to the owner.

Mizuki: What’s up with that? You were the one saying you wanted to do this.

Mokuren: I don’t care about what you do, but if this shop disappears you’ll be in trouble.

Mizuki: I’m saying it won’t disappear!

Mokuren: It will. We’ve been scared that will happen for the last six months.

Mizuki: Annoying. Annoying, annoying, annoying! It won’t! This place won’t disappear!

Kei: I’m here to make sure it doesn’t. I’ll protect this place. If this shop is important to you, you must worship this girl as a goddess.

Mokuren: That girl?

Mizuki: Do you mean that one?

Saki: Uh, that must be a joke. Right?

Kei: There’s only you in here. I’m protecting Starless for your sake.

Mokuren: And that renewal opening is for the sake of that “goddess” as well?

Kei: It is.

Mokuren: Nice to meet you then, Saki. You can come to the backstage whenever you want.

Mizuki: Why the hell. That girl doesn’t have anything to do with this.

Saki: T-then, excuse me…

Mokuren: By the way, can you tell Kei that the shower room is in a bad condition?

Saki: Eh, eh… eh?

Mokuren: Come on, say it.

Saki: Uhm… Kei-san, the shower room is in a bad condition…?

Kei: It can’t be helped, I’ll ask Haseyama to repair it.

Mokuren: Mizuki, that’s how it is.

Mizuki: That’s how what is what?

Mokuren: Are you stupid? You can manipulate Kei if you use this person.

Mizuki: Oh, I see. That’s cool!

Mokuren: The backstage is so poor it’s an unbearable hindrance for going onstage. For the sake of that whim of mine, I’ll pay the price you want.

Saki: Eeeeeeh?! That’s impossible!

Mizuki: You can come here without saying anything. If you say you won’t come, I’ll bring you with me even if I have to drag you.

Saki: That’s not how it works! Kei-san, please, stop him!

Kei: No, that’s actually a good idea. Come here every day. Unei, give her a backstage pass. Grant her whatever wish she has.

Unei: Eh, me?!

Kei: You’re the only “Unei” in here. Her presence is essential for Starless, more than what any of you think it is.

(Like this, you started going to Starless without complaining. And you changed my fate without knowing.) 

End of Story.

Chapter 3: Top three.

Kokuyou: Hey, Unmei, go outside for a bit.

Unmei: Eh? Ah, er, but Kokuyou-san, I was told by Kei-san to stay in here…

Kokuyou: I’ll change places with you so hurry up and leave. Understood?

Unmei: Hyai-! T-then I’ll leave it to you!

Saki: H-hey! I’m going home in a bit so…!

Kokuyou: You don’t need to hurry that much, ya know. You could stay here a little longer.

Saki: Eh… Ah…

[Kokuyou kabedon(?]

Kokuyou: You’re Kei’s girl, right? I wonder how much can you tell me about him.

Saki: I-I don’t know anything! I just meet him today!

Kokuyou: Heh? You’ve got some guts trying to lie to me. Suddenly I’m even more interested.

Saki: I’m not lying, I swear I just met him…!

Rindou: What do you think you’re doing? Kokuyou, please stop. Don’t you see she’s scared?

Kokuyou: Tch, asshole. Get off, you’re in the way, Rindou.

Rindou: I can’t just leave.

Kokuyou: You’re way too annoying.

Rindou: Are you alright? It was scary, wasn’t it?

Kokuyou: Good for you the prince was around. What a shame he didn’t bring his white horse with him.

Rindou: Please stop teasing me. Why were you threatening her?

Kokuyou: Threatening? Don’t go ruining others reputation. I was just asking her nicely to do me a favour while looking her straight in the eyes. Hey, miss, why don’t you just tell me something about Kei I can use? Like what is he doing in this place, or what is his purpose.

Also about that owner or Nekome, or what are Miki-san and the others doing… Speak.

Saki: Eh… Ah, um, I’m telling you, I don’t know anything.

Rindou: Kokuyou, I told you to stop, didn’t I. You’re just threatening her so you can get with a convenient answer.

Kokuyou: As expected from our prince, you’re so smart.

Rindou: Stop teasing me, please. It’s uncomfortable.

Kei: Arguing in front of a lady… behave yourselves. As I said before, it’s not time to answer those questions. At this rate, Haseyama will destroy this place before I get to give you the answers.

Kokuyou: He doesn’t have the rights to do that.

Rindou: He is the current owner, so technically he does have the right.

Koukuyou: I won’t accept this. I won’t just happily follow whatever he does. Hey, Kei. You know, right? How the hell did we end up in this situation?

Kei: I indeed have knowledge of that information. However, I am the only one who can reveal the truth. If this girl comes to this place, starts loving this place and acknowledge you, I’ll tell you everything.

Saki: (At this rate… could it be...)

Koukuyou: Hey girl, you fucker. Didn’t you say you just meet him?

Saki: I did! I don’t know either what is he talking about…

Rindou: … So if she takes a liking for this place you’ll tell us something, right? Kei.

Kei: I won’t say it twice. But only if she comes back safely.

Koukuyou: What do you mean.

Kei: She was targeted. Not even I know the reason.

Rindou: What!?

Saki: Uhm… it looks like that… I don’t understand how it ended up like this…

Kei: I’ll protect her, but if you two lend a hand you’ll probably be closer to the answer you wish for.

Rindou: … Understood. I’ll help you. There are too many things I wish to know, however… if she was targeted… It’s unusual to see someone who has been targeted without knowing the reason.

Kei: And you, Kokuyou?

Kokuyou: …Arg, shit. In the end, you always do as you please. It’s the same with the store and the team. Why the hell do we have to follow you every time!?

… Tch. Hey, girl. I’m not doing this because of you.

Kei: I’ll approve of your help. Do your best. (Player), this two are the leaders of their teams. If anything happens and I’m not near, it’ll be okay to go ask for help to any of them. The one with the good physique is Kokuyou, the polite one is Rindou.

Kokuyou: What if you made a good presentation?

Rindou: It’s a pleasure to meet you.

Saki: Ah. Uhm… Nice to meet you. W-wait, I didn’t say I’ll go along with that!

Kei: That doesn’t matter right now. Let’s go.

Rindou: …That surprised me. So, in the end, he can smile like a normal person.

Kokuyou: That was pretty disgusting.

Chapter 2: Underground

Saki: What… was that… That was amazing…! It’s the first time I’ve seen this kind of performance!

Haseyama: A stage full of men won’t get famous (1), you know. Heeey, Unei.

Unei: Y-yes! Sorry for keeping you waiting.

Haseyama: You made a profit for this, didn’t you? How much did we make with today’s reservation?

Unei: Ah, ah, if I don’t go to the office I won’t know!

Haseyama: Geez, you’re useless, you know. Just go and make this a host club already. You think the same, don’t you, little miss? Isn’t a host club more enjoyable than this?

Saki: That’s not true, this performance was fantastic! It was so cool and intense, and-

Haseyama: So this little miss thinks that too, huh. Whatever, I’m okay with whatever brings me money.

...And who are you, miss? If you’re here because of the interview it isn’t here.

Unei: T-That’s not right, president. This is the person Kei-san talked about.

Haseyama: Aaah, this little miss is THAT person. Kei’s client, heeeeeeeeeh. I heard about you, you know. I am this place’s owner, Haseyama. I didn’t get it at all but you got chased, collapsed and got through a lot of troubles, right.

How was it, the hospital I recommended? It was quite comfortable in there, wasn’t it?

Saki: So you’re the person who arranged that hospital. Thank you so much.

Kei: Saki, it’s okay to ignore this man. Talking to him is worthless

Haseyama: This, the way you treat me is way too bad, you know. Now I get why the former owner refused me to tell me why he quit. Because the coworkers are so defiant it’s impossible to administrate this place, you know.

Kei: That’s because your effort for administration is not enough. Try harder.

Haseyama: That’s only because I say I want to fire everyone and transform this place into a host club. After all, that’s what you expected, Kei. You’re truly a troublesome guy.

Kei: If we confirm we’re receiving support from our customers will you be relieved?

Haseyama: That’s what I’m talking about, you know. It’s that part of you, you know. Really, you know. Whatever, let’s change the subject. We have to talk about what are we going to do from now on. Hey, Kongou.

Kongou: Yes, owner. What’s up?

Haseyama: Nee-chan, this guy here is the cook but he also performs in that stage full of thugs, you know. He’s Kongou. Kongou, this girl here is that, you know. Kei’s princess.

Kongou: Oh, you are? It’s a pleasure, I’m Kongou.

Saki: (Why is it that I’m such a hot topic in this place…?)

Haseyama: Kongou, from now on I’ll need you to be this girl’s bodyguard.

Saki: Eh? What do you mean?

Kongou: Bodyguard? Me?

Haseyama: Only when this little miss is in our shop, you know. There’s no need to be always with her. I am a manager too. I won’t ask you to work 24/7.

Kongou: Only inside the shop? Not outside? Well… It’s an order from the owner… I won’t say I won’t do it, but…

Kei: I see. You’re not stupid. If he doesn’t bother me I’ll approve him as a bodyguard. I’ll grant only one of your wishes. Haseyama, you better be grateful.

Haseyama: You’re making me sick. At least I made you do a good thing.

Kongou: Saki-chan, you don’t really need to understand that. It’ll be better if you think that’s just a formality. If there’s something bothering you and Kei isn’t near you can call me.

Saki: … Sure, thank you.

Kei: … Kongou, protect her with your life. If you don’t, say goodbye to your head. (2)

Haseyama: You’re being overdramatic. Just ignore him, Kongou. (3)

Kongou: Ahahaha… Suddenly I’m in an awkward position, I don’t really know what should I answer. (4) Anyways, I’ll go back to the kitchen. I was on my way to go cook.

[Kongou walks away]

Kei: Hm. Anyway, Haseyama, stop making us lose time. It’s up to me to decide which team will be in the next performance, not you.

Haseyama: Who the hell do you think the owner is, huh? It’s me, you know?

Kei: Saki, why don’t you go rest at the back? I don’t want you to get tired because of this chitchat. Unei, take this girl to the backstage.

Unei: Understood! Please, follow me this way, Kazami-san.

Saki: (I wonder.... What’s going on?)

To be continued…

(1): Lit. “rise up” but maybe that didn’t sound that good.

(2): EDIT: got the kanji meaning wrong (again).

(3): Couldn’t find a way to make that make sense, sorry wwww EDIT: Had to change the whole sentence but it should be ok now!!

(4): EDIT: had to change the whole sentence x2.

Once again thank you Jin www

Chapter 1-2: White Room

Saki: (Where am I…? A hospital…? Why?)

Kei: Are you awake, Saki? How are you feeling?

Saki: Um… I’m fine. Er, why am I…?

Kei: Don’t you remember? You fainted.

Saki: I… fainted…?

Kei: You were running away from those strangers and I helped you. You fainted after that.

…Can you remember?

Saki: I remember hearing a ringtone from someone’s phone, but…

(What on earth was that ringtone.)

Kei: “BLACKSTAR”. It’s a closed performance. Forget about that song.

Saki: But… I swear I’ve heard that song somewhere else.

...Uh… My chest hurts…

(I can’t... breath…!)

Kei: Saki, are you alright? Are you in pain? I’m sorry… You don’t have to overdo it. Exhale deeply… Breath in slowly.

Close your eyes, don’t think. It’s alright. Forget about it… you don’t need to remember.

Saki: (...I can hear Kei.san’s voice… I can breathe again.)

Kei: Did you calm down?

Saki: Yes… thank you.

Kei: …Saki … 

Unei: Excuse me~, Kei-san, Kazami-san. I got called by the president-.

Uwah- I’m sorry I interrupted--.

Kei: If you know you did get out of here.

Unei: Uuuh, er, the president said he wants us to go to Starless! He wants to talk about what are we doing from now on, and about the hospital…

Saki: Ehm, Kei-san… 

Kei: You don’t need to come with us. You should rest.

Saki: But if that person arranged (1) the hospital I want to thank them… And I’m fine. Look, I can move.

Kei: Don’t push yourself.

...No, I think you’re trying to not make us worry. I guess I can’t make you change your mind. If you say so, I’ll trust you.

Unei: Waaah! Thank you so much, Kazami-san!

Kei: Don’t be so imprudent! Know your place. (2)

Unei: Y-yes! I’m sorry!

Kei: Let’s go, Saki. To Starless.

/

Kei: You shall go inside.

/

Saki: (What is this place…?)

Kei: Welcome to our show restaurant, Starless. I’m glad I got to welcome you. This is a shop made for you. A place meant to protect you.

Saki: Uh, what do you mean…?

Kei: This way.

/

Saki: (Waah…! A stage… But what’s with that giant skeleton!?)

Kei: You can sit in there.

Saki: Oh, sure.

Kei: Hm. As expected to make you sit feels better. This whole place was made for your sake. I hope it’ll be of your liking.

Saki: Is that so? Even though I don’t know about you…

Kokuyou: Huh, you came back. I thought you ran away, Kei.

Mizuki: Who the hell is her, your girl? You want her to see this fancy place? Ha, lame.

Rindou: Both of you, please stop teasing them.

Mokuren: Are we not going to do that?

Kei: No, let us begin. I want you to see it, what do I do here. Today, at this moment, the stage where I dance is all yours.

I’ll give it all to you.

To be continued…

(1): She literally says “arranged this hospital” but I don’t know how to translate that and make it still have sense……. Basically Haseyama told them to take her to the hospital they’re in.

(2): He says ‘know the minutes’ so I guess it’s a way to say that. Time’s flying??? + Kei talks like he’s 200 years old help it’s hard to understand what he says--- EDIT: I got the wrong kanji meaning lol (thanks Jin for helping me wwww)
