The day of the competition has finally arrived, and fourteen clubs from twelve universities will compete today. Don’t ask why there are fourteen clubs, because the two well-known COSER schools are not universities, and even they belong to
It's not a "club" but a studio. But it doesn't matter because I know I will win. If such a performance cannot impress the judges, then my "props" will come in handy.
Since there is no direct confrontation in the COSPLAY stage competition, there is no promotion. After all the clubs perform on stage, the jury will score, and the three clubs with the highest scores are the winners. Each club only has ten minutes to perform on stage.
Or so, so the whole competition does not take much time. In order to expand its influence, the organizers also held a small comic exhibition before the competition. To be precise, it was a themed COSPLAY exhibition, because in addition to COSPLAY and the manufacturers' own booths, there were
There was nothing else to see. In addition to two top-tier COSERs, they also invited many high-quality COSERs to support the show.
The so-called high-quality COSER is actually the second- and third-tier COSER who are not well-known enough. The quality of their COSER is not necessarily worse than the so-called first-tier COSER, and some are even better. However, due to various reasons, their popularity is far less than that of the former, so their remuneration is also
It’s much lower. Generally speaking, it’s good to be able to pay for food and fare. However, these COSERs don’t really worry about this. Being able to increase their exposure is already a gain. Some really like to play this and don’t care about it.
Point some money.
As super newcomers with zero visibility (no mistake), Bai Yanghua and I did not go out to tour, but stayed in the preparation room to dress up other members. Bai Yanghua is very good at makeup, so she naturally became the makeup girl.
And I am the provider of all COS clothes. I am the only one who can wear these overly exquisite clothes, so it becomes my job to change clothes for the girls. These silly girls only know that the clothes I bring are super good-looking.
Super restored, but I didn’t know that these clothes were all made by Sister Aiti. If priced according to the standards of this world, each set of clothes is estimated to be worth a million. But I will definitely not take the initiative to say this, otherwise we would not be able to
Are they too scared to wear it?
As for Bai Yanghua and I, we changed our clothes and drove directly here - yes, we drove my old scooter that had not been used for a long time. I had everything in the storage space, but there was nothing normal.
Wearing a COS suit and riding a motorcycle was too flamboyant, so I could only drive this small car. At that time, I opened the car door and let Bai Yanghua get in. Her expression was as if she had seen a ghost, and she kept asking me if I was
The family went bankrupt and sold the motorcycle.
The so-called preparation room is actually a cubicle surrounded by partitions in the exhibition hall. Although our clubs are all from famous universities, the COS world does not look at academic qualifications. Here we are completely unknown.
It's already great to have us squat in the tunnel. Those COSERs who come to support the scene don't have independent preparation rooms. They can only rest and change in a large public cubicle, which is really hard.
Because Baiyanghua and I were so efficient, we helped all the group members finish dressing up in about an hour. Baiyanghua was very curious about the outside world when she was free, so she wanted to take me out to play.
"Are you sure you want to go out? A bunch of disgusting geeks will take crazy photos from all angles."
"Don't lie to me. Only a nerd would dare not come to such an occasion!"
"But it's true that I was photographed. Don't you feel ashamed?"
"I'm so ashamed of myself when I have to perform on stage! I'll take care of myself now that I've come to you. I'm going to risk everything today!"
"Really, you'd better not hide behind me at that moment, I will throw you in front of the camera without mercy."
"Be gentle with me, please!"
"Yanghua."
"what!"
"Be smart and don't let perverts take advantage of you."
"Aren't you protecting me?"
"If something goes wrong, I'll make this place a river of blood."
"Hey~! I know! I will definitely be careful not to be taken advantage of! Don't go crazy!"
"How can a joke scare you like this?"
"..."
"Let's go, I hope you won't be scared to tears."
"I'm not that timid, okay! Get out of the way, I'll go out first!"
Bai Yanghua pushed me away with all her strength, and then walked out of the preparation room angrily.
"Erumia, do you and Bai Yanghua always quarrel like this?"
A girl in the club asked curiously.
"Yes, I can't always make her laugh when I joke with her."
"Then you have to change your approach~ Elumia, your jokes are always scary~"
"It doesn't matter. Once you get used to it, you won't be afraid anymore."
"That's not the case..."
"That's it. By the way, you should take good care of these clothes. They are handmade by my sister. They are extremely collectible and can be kept as family heirlooms."
"Ah! Elumia, do you really want to give it to us? These clothes feel so expensive~"
"It's custom-made for you. What else can I do if I don't give it to you? I'm out."
Walking out of the preparation room, the noise immediately became much louder. The bustling crowd shuttled back and forth in the exhibition hall, from one beautiful girl to another. In front of the sponsor's booth, Xiao Yezi and Lululu were signing autographs.
During the sales event, a large number of dead houses lined up in a long queue, eagerly waiting to shake hands and say a few words to the goddess in their hearts.
"Amy, are they selling anything good? Why are there so many people queuing up? Let's go take a look too?"
Bai Yanghua shook my arm and pointed at the autograph signing site and asked.
"No, there's nothing good, just some signed photo books. I wouldn't buy these things before, and I'm even less likely to buy them now and in the future."
"Hey~~~ Why? Although there are indeed many differences between those two girls and us, they still look pretty after makeup~ So what if I buy a copy and take a look?"
"If you want to see beautiful girls, just stare at me."
I put my face close to the poplar flowers.
"Go, go, don't make me blush in public! Don't you, a monster, come to compete with us ordinary people? Without makeup, it's just like adding beauty!"
"Actually, I can be even more beautiful, so beautiful that it is ethereal and unreal, just like CG rendering, can you believe it?"
"Believe it, believe it, I believe whatever you say now! Why don't we just go over and take a look? There's nothing to lose."
"No, these signed copies are very expensive. A set costs several hundred yuan, and the special edition ones are even more expensive."
"It's so expensive! Do you still think it's expensive if it's not right? Do you think it's not worth it..."
"right."
"Tell me what the special edition is."
"It's the version with a hickey or a pair of socks stuffed inside."
"..."
"Why don't you look so good?"
"The dead house is really disgusting..."
"Don't overgeneralize. This is just a part of the dead house, and it does not represent the whole."
"You're going to say that you're a nerd again, right?"
