Chapter 538 Rio Arrives

Elven World, Animation District, Sakura City.

07:14 PM, Monday, January 11th.

Theo and the others had just toured around the 'The Last Tale' exhibition.

There they were able to see some items that were used by Hitarashi during the production of the anime, and they were amazed by it.

Especially Theo and Ryoko, that was because the techniques used to produce animation in those times were completely different from the current techniques employed by the animation industry.

They even bought some souvenirs from 'The Last Tale' anime. And that wasn't the only thing they bought during their stay at the Elven World. Their hands were filled with bags carrying all types of things like plush toys, T-shirts, slippers, and other types of merchandise from the Elvish Studios' animations.

For example, Sam bought a pajama from her favorite anime character.

They couldn't waste this opportunity to buy these things.

That's why as they walked toward the exit of the park, they carried lots of bags filled with goods that they bought.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, Theo!" Ryoko suddenly exclaimed, "I invited Rio to come with us to the concert. Is there still a ticket for her?" She asked with an apologetic expression as the group left the park.

"Rio?" Theo asked in surprise.

"Yeah, I'm sorry for not telling you sooner." Ryoko said with a soft voice.

"Don't worry about it." Theo laughed, "And she's more than welcome to come with us. I have a spare ticket for her." He said with a smile.

"Thank you, Theo!" Ryoko exclaimed happily, "I'll text her the good news." She said as she picked up her phone to text Rio about Theo's answer.

"Who's Rio?" June asked curiously.

"Oh, it's the manager of the studio that I opened here in Sakura City. She studied in college with Ryoko." Theo replied simply.

The others nodded in understanding.

They really didn't care that another person would be joining them, their motto was the more the merrier.

Just like that, they exited the park after taking some pictures of the front of it.

Although they only spent one afternoon in it, and they weren't able to enjoy all the attractions of the park, still was an amazing experience for all of them.

They had so much fun there!

That's why they wanted to register at that moment.

Soon after, they were driving back to Ayia and Shizuka's house.

The night had already descended over Sakura City and the city lights illuminated the metropole.

Sakura City was especially beautiful at night.

For example, in the district that they were leaving, the Animation District had all kinds of screens over the buildings that showed anime characters and even anime episodes. They really felt like they were in anime town. There were even statues and monuments from animes here and there.

Every district and neighborhood had its unique characteristics, and as they neared the neighborhood where Ayia and Shizuka's house was. They observed that the lights around this neighborhood were relatively more classic and youthful.

Due to its proximity to Rainbow Sakura University. This neighborhood was filled with professors and students that frequented the college nearby. Plus, this wasn't the only college located in this district. That's why this district was popular called College Town.

"Finally home!" Ayia exclaimed when the minibus parked in front of the house.

"Yes!"

"We had such a busy day."

"But it was worth it, huh?"

"Of course! Sakura City is so amazing!"

"..."

They discussed their day as they entered the manor.

"What time the concert starts, Theo?" Sam suddenly asked.

"Hmm, I think it's around 11 pm." He replied.

"So, we should leave the house at least one house before that." Kumiko commented with a serious face.

She wouldn't tolerate missing a part of the concert because of the lateness to arrive at the venue.

"Where's the venue of the concert?" Ryoko asked.

Theo thought for a while before replying, "I think it is the Saint Cielo Square."

"I figured!" Ayia exclaimed, "Only this arena can house the number of fans that Cara has."

The other agreed with her as well.

To understand their logic, we have to understand that the Saint Cielo Square was the most renowned arena of Sakura City.

Until 50 years, the arena was the house of a famous football club, but after they built another stadium. The government took ownership of the place and completely transformed the arena.

It was there that famous artists performed and important events took place.

Over the years, the popularity of the place only increased nationwide and worldwide.

Performing at the Saint Cielo Square became the synonym for a successful career.

The arena could house around 65 thousand people at its full capacity after the numerous renovations done by the government.

That's why the group agreed with Ayia's statement.

Cara Izuhara was a worldwide phenomenon that achieved success wherever she went.

Only the most renowned arena in the city could house the last concert of her tour.

"It's almost 8 pm." June said as she looked at the clock, "This means that we have less than 2 hours to have dinner and get ready for the concert."

The girls became a little worried when they heard that, they usually took a long time to get ready for these kinds of events.

"Then, we should have dinner now as fast as we can." Vivian commented.

"I think they already prepared dinner for us." Ayia suddenly said.

"Yes, the dinner is ready, miss." They suddenly heard a female voice behind them.

While they talked, Hellen, the butler, arrived behind them and heard their conversation.

"Hellen!" Ayia exclaimed happily, "The dinner is ready?"

"Yes, miss." Hellen replied calmly.

"Great!" Ayia smiled, "Let's go, guys. The faster we finish, the more time we'll have to get ready for the concert."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

But as they started to walk toward the dining room, they heard the doorbell ringing.

Hellen didn't hesitate before walking toward the door and opening it.

There she found a young brown-haired girl looking around timidly.

Amano Rio had come to the address that Ryoko sent her, but she didn't imagine that it was a mansion!

She became a little self-conscious and even contemplated bailing out of the event. But when she remembered Cara's concert, she gathered her courage and rang the doorbell. But she still was a little timid nonetheless.

She spent so much time living in poverty that she didn't know how to react to these kinds of situations.

"Good evening! How can I help you?" Hellen asked politely.

"Hmm... m-my friend Ryoko said to meet her here." Rio tried to express herself, but she was too nervous, "I'm Amano Rio."

Hellen was about to reply when she heard someone exclaim behind her, "Rio?"

Ryoko appeared on the doorstep with a smile on her face.

"You came!" Ryoko smiled at her.
