I'm Just A Chuunibyou: Why Are Maidens Falling For Me? [Volume 1]

Chapter 81: Just rapidly posing.

Moving back, the emcee(announcer) began to do what he does best, hosting and announcing of course.

“What a wonderful performance from Fumidai-kun! The multi-talented genius, the rising star of the industry! …Now…how will the boy who calls himself Phantom respond?”

“Mr. Phantom. Please step forward and show us what you got.” Mr. Announcer said.

With the promise to give it my all to respond to Fumidai’s efforts, I stepped forward, walked in front of the stage, and presented myself in front of everyone.

All their attention was now focused on me.

‘What will he do? How can he top Fumidai’s performance just now? Is it even possible?’ That is what the audience was probably thinking. ‘If the Phantom guy doesn’t have anything up his sleeve, then victory will surely be Fumidai’s.’

With everything now set and ready, I stood on the stage, poised and ready to move. The music started and my body began to move following through the beat of the music.

She shot me, she shot me🎶

The first beat dropped, I moved and posed exaggeratedly. The second beat drops transitioning my pose as exaggerated as the first one. The third one too, exaggerated, and so on and so forth.

As the audience watched, they were stunned for a second seeing how I displayed my movements just now.

Bursting with explosive energy, moving seamlessly, transitioning from one explosive motion to the next. It was a strong stage presence.

With a different charm to Fumidai’s footwork, the audience watches in awe as I displayed these over-the-top movements, seemingly filled with passion.

If words to describe what they are witnessing right now, the way I move while I dance on stage. The words they would choose were that it was powerful, bold, and full of personality. Overall, it was "chaotic".

As they watch in awe, the silence broke and the crowd erupts into cheers.

‘How is he moving like that!? How can he manage to move so fluidly!?’ despite the extremely exaggerated motions that appear random at first, these chaotic movements flow so fluently and don't seem to lose any momentum.

It was a play of ‘chaotic harmony’.

Like dipping your French fries into ice cream, things that aren't supposed to go together, yet is actually good.

From that, the crowd watched in amazement as they were taken in by these alluring phenomena.

Meanwhile, as Ayaka and Kaori, who were watching through the screen of Kaori’s phone, Kaori couldn’t help but ask Ayaka about the thing she is witnessing right now.

“I thought you said Chuunibro couldn’t dance?” Kaori asked, recalling Ayaka's prior statement.

Resting her chin on her palm leisurely, Ayaka replied with an unchanging expression on her face.

"When did I say he couldn't?" said as though Kaori had misinterpreted something.

"Then, what is this then...?" Kaori asked again, presenting her phone at hand, projecting a boy in a crimson and black cloak, dancing, bursting with explosive energy, as he fluidly moves to the sound of the music.

"If you knew my brother enough, you'll quickly realize that he's not dancing. No...not at all," Ayaka replied, shaking her head, shrugging her shoulders.

“What… do you mean, exactly?” clueless, ‘What is she on about now?’, Kaori left it for Ayaka to explain.

"From the perspective of someone who knows brother, you'll soon to realize that he's actually just randomly posing, posing really fast at a phase changing from one cool pose to another," explained Ayaka.

“Transitioning from one pose to another …Isn’t that, basically just dancing? What’s the difference?” Kaori asked.

“Try pausing the video.”

“Um…Okay?” Kaori complied with Ayaka’s demands.

“Look closely and play it again.”

Kaori complied.

“Pause it again.”

They repeated this process about five times until Kari noticed something.

“Wait, this is…?!”

“So …Have you finally realized something?”

“…All of them are chuunibyou poses!?”

“Correct. You see those movements right there? At first, you would think he was just pointing at the crowd and winking but in reality, he was sniping you with a pistol. That eye peeping through the peace sign, in reality, was actually activation of an imaginary skill called magic scope. Those series of acrobatic maneuvers, body gestures, etc. was probably an imitation of Kamen rider's transformation and power poses. Brother is transitioning between poses so fast that it was easily mistaken/pass off as dancing.”

“This specific skill is called, Advance Skill: [Rapid Transitioning Chuunibyou Posing.]”

“Rapid Transitioning Chunibyou Posing?” ‘What a cringey name’.

"Yeah, it was a useless skill he acquired during middle school, where most students were granted their first personal smartphones."

"After obtaining such power to take photos of free will, they would childishly randomly snap stolen pictures of friends, making fun of each other for how goofy they looked in the stolen pictures. Of course, brother is no exemption to that as he always gets caught in the crossfire."

“So, he trained… at home, setting the camera into burst mode. He continuously trained to make sure that in every of those quick continuous shots, he looked cool in every picture.”

“Wait, now that you mentioned it…?! How can this be!? …Every pause, from any angle. It’s picture-perfect!? Not just that, it was also perfectly matched with the music!”

“Fufufu. This is the true power of Advanced Skill: [Rapid Transitioning Chuunibyou Posing.]” Ayaka proudly said while covering half of her face.

“... What an absurd ability…” Kaori commented still struggling to believe what she's seeing first hand.

The crowd filled up with cheers as they witnessed this display of chaotic harmony in the form of freestyle dancing.
