I like traveling the most

Maslow once used humanistic psychology as a basis to show the world that the inner strength of human beings is different from the instinct of animals. It is human nature for people to realize their inner values ​​and inner potential. Human behavior is controlled by consciousness and is purposeful and creative.

That is, the five major needs of human beings.

When physiological needs and safety needs are met in the death game, his needs for belonging and love will become vigorous.

Although the hierarchy of needs theory has humanistic limitations, Maslow is right in one point, that is, in every period, there is a need that dominates, while other needs are subordinate.

As the strategy team cleared the level one by one, one third of the 100 levels of Aincrad were also completed, and it seemed that the death game was not so terrible.

But at the same time, the good news of clearing the level could no longer impress the bottom players.

Think about it carefully, the strategy team and other players on the front line, they are the hard-working players who cleared the level and the boss, and their wholehearted dedication naturally brought them the sense of accomplishment and happiness of successful strategy.

The cleared floors are just a number for the low-level players who dare not go to the front line or even walk out of the safe zone. If they do it too many times, it will no longer stimulate them.

This is not acceptable.

Over time, they will become depressed again. New activities are needed to get these people moving.

So, Xiaolin, the home manager of Aincrad, thought of a way.

——————

"Brother, brother... I'm a little nervous."

"It's okay, Alice."

Xiaolin leaned down and put his hand on her head.

At this time, the orthodox blonde beauty was wearing a gorgeous pink dress and a crown on her head. It was the LA reward she got after the 21st floor BOSS battle. This crown made her look more like a noble princess. ...Wait, she is the princess.

"Don't be nervous, I will always watch you backstage. And you see... Miss Kureya and Miss Rain are looking forward to your performance."

Xiaolin gestured for her to look at the scene through the canvas backstage.

In the audience, a perverted female guard was shouting and waving her golden glow sticks vigorously, her enthusiasm was a little scary.

Alice took a deep breath and closed her eyes. When she opened them again, a firm look flashed in her eyes.

"I know, I will try my best to perform."

Yes, performance!

On the east side of the Starting Town is the headquarters of the Akusis Church. Since Aqua was the representative who asked her to choose the location of the guild, and the reason she chose the east side was that it was often lively here.

In order to create a happy atmosphere in the game, Kayaba Akihiko deliberately built a street similar to an amusement park on the east side. But as the death game began, Ode to Joy became more and more creepy, until the Akusis Church was established here, the atmosphere was reversed again.

... I'm getting off topic.

In short, Kobayashi used this lively atmosphere to build a makeshift team.

When the needs of the bottom players increase, what should be done? Ignore or suppress? No, satisfy them. Since they have spiritual needs, Xiaolin will create one.

After discussion with the Akusis Church and others, they unanimously decided to promote Aidoulu.

Aidoulu is very good.

Idol worship among teenagers is a common psychological phenomenon, which psychologists call "secondary emotional dependence". That is, before teenagers become adults, their emotions must gradually get rid of their attachment to their parents, so they will unconsciously look for objects that are more distant in real social relationships but more intimate psychologically. This is also a way that most teenagers think is safer.

And while meeting the needs of the bottom players, it can also make the guild famous and stabilize the bottom emotions.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Originally, Aqua tried hard to get the job of Aidoulu. After all, the stupid goddess likes to show off the most, and she is really talented. But everyone who knows her nature knows that this guy will always make big news at critical moments and is the kind of person who can never be a bottom-line role in his life.

In addition, the Axis believers have been a bit too radical recently. If she is allowed to be the Aituolu, who knows what kind of trouble will happen. So when Aqua raised her hand, she was rejected by everyone.

As for the others...

Is she a little loli from the Crimson Demon Clan with a problem in her brain, or a perverted female knight who likes to be raped, or a timid and shy good child?

After thinking about it, only the orthodox beautiful girl Alice is suitable.

As for Kureya and Rain, they are not within the scope of consideration, and the poisonous-tongued Ryuu is not very popular except for a certain group of people, even though her beauty is comparable to that of a goddess.

The first concert was a bit simple and built like a makeshift troupe.

But it doesn't matter.

The world is a huge makeshift troupe. As long as it succeeds, it will get better and better.

Kobayashi leaned on the goalpost backstage and used a small stone to shoot the stupid goddess who was stirring up the atmosphere on the stage. When she turned around, the two nodded.

"Look at me, flowers, birds, wind and moon!"

Aqua performed her unique skill of spraying water without any abnormality.

Xiaolin couldn't understand it either. She had no magic skills, and her life and acrobatics skills didn't have the ability to spray water. How did she do it? ... Forget it, she wouldn't tell me even if I asked her. The stupid goddess was firm in this regard and wouldn't agree even if she was tempted with wine.

"Oh oh oh——"

"Aqua-sama!"

"That's great, Aqua-sama!"

"One more!" "One more!" "One more!"

Amid the enthusiastic cheers of "One more" from the audience, Aqua said without showing any timidity: "Everyone, I'm going to perform a stunt next! - Transform into a living person!"

Backstage.

Xiao Lin patted Alice on the head: "It's time, come on."

"Yes, brother."

The girl nodded and stood on the pre-designed wooden board.

After Aqua on the stage saw Alice getting ready, she conjured a handkerchief out of nowhere, and then spun it bigger and bigger. This move alone made the audience in the audience unable to stop cheering.

As the handkerchief grew larger and larger, until it was large enough to cover Aqua, a flick of her arm sent the cloth flying into the sky. Everyone's attention was attracted by the huge handkerchief flying into the sky, even Xiao Lin.

Then the handkerchief fell from the sky and covered Aqua's body.

Snap——

After a clear snap of fingers, the huge handkerchief covering Aqua fell down, revealing Alice in front of everyone, and Aqua also appeared next to Kobayashi.

...Huh?

I didn’t blink even though I was thinking!

Some magic tricks are so clever. Even if you know the principles, you will still be deceived by the clever tricks. This is the case with Xiao Lin. Even if he knew where the mechanism was, even if he knew how to replace it, he was still shocked.

Xiao Lin was like this, let alone the audience.

"marvelous!"

“I’ve really changed as a person!”

"That's amazing, Aqua-sama!"

“Oh oh oh——oh?”

There was enthusiastic applause for a long time, but Aqua never appeared again. Instead, Alice was beautiful and cute, but not well known to the public.

The cheerful atmosphere was suddenly interrupted. Alice was a little nervous when she went on stage for the first time, and she couldn't speak.

What comes next is the most important thing.

Come on, Alice.

Xiao Lin's heart lifted slightly.

There was still no response from the audience, and even to the point where the audience was whispering, they were a little confused as to what was going on. until--

"Ai, Li, Si! Ai, Li, Si! Ai, Li, Si!"

In the crowd, someone had a headband of "Original Alice" on his head. He was holding a cattail leaf fan with Alice's cute face in one hand, and a golden fluorescent stick in the other hand. He was shaking his hands widely with his mouth. And shouted Alice's name loudly.

The sudden cheering sound made the audience confused, but Alice on the stage relaxed.

...Thank you, brother-sama.

After silently thanking her in her heart, the beautiful blonde girl regained her energy and said loudly without any stage fright: "My name is Alice, and I will perform for everyone next. Please listen to the song——"

That's it!

Xiao Lin in the background clenched his fists.

Alice is Her Royal Highness the Princess. She once led the kingdom on behalf of the king. She also praised those who made contributions and even gave congratulations to those who went on an expedition. It is impossible to say that she would be nervous in front of everyone. The only question is whether she can accept singing and dancing in front of everyone.

Of course, Kureya refused forcefully at first, but when Kobayashi convinced her that she would see the other side, she immediately switched sides. But now that Alice has broken down the psychological barrier, there is nothing to fear.

"On the other side of the sea and sky, strolling in the garden, the endless search for the end of the sky begins in front of you."

"The temple in the sky, because you release the holy light, I will always be by your side."

"Memory is frozen in the limit of heaven and earth, and it breaks through the prison of imprisonment in four years."

"The summer sunshine is dancing on your and my fingertips."

"I can't stop my love, I hope it reaches your heart."

"I love you the most, love you the most, and convey it to your heart."

"I cannot express my gratitude, but I hope it will be conveyed to your heart."

“If you hear this, take it to heart and never give up.”

"I can't express it in words. I believe in you and follow the steps of the music to find me."

"In silence, I hope that the light will break through the cage and leave little traces across the sky."

"The trees and plants are fleeting, and the flying birds and flowers are falling."

"I am the moment, you are the eternity, the lonely thread of every minute and every second in the world."

"Love and hope are with you."

"Light will guide you back to your original direction."

…

Looking at the girl jumping up and down on the stage, Xiao Lin's lips curved into a proud smile.

Apart from the fact that Alice is an orthodox blond beauty, the important thing is that she has great talent. Whether it is movements or lyrics, she can be easily memorized after two or three times. Megumin, Yuyou and others are not so fast, and fast learning is a necessary condition for being an idol.

Seeing how heated the scene was, Aqua was very proud and said: "Sure enough, I am the one who deserves the most credit, right?"

"Uh... indeed."

Looking at the stupid goddess lying on the ground with her butt raised, Xiaolin acknowledged her taking credit.

Whether it’s lyrics or movements, they are all designed by Aqua.

Kobayashi doesn't have the ability to design dances, Megumin and Yuyu can't do the Crimson Demon dance, let alone Kurea and Rein, they can't do anything except fight. Now the two of them are shouting enthusiastically in the audience, no different from ardent fans.

"No, I think I deserve the most credit."

"Kazuma?" X2

The two turned their heads.

Seeing Sato Kazuma with a headband tied on his head, a palm-leaf fan and glow sticks in his hands. After all, he is dressed like a typical idol otaku.

"If I hadn't planned this concert, it would definitely not have caused such a big wave, so I am the one who deserves the most credit!"

He is right.

Sato Kazuma is Alice's manager, and he also pulled this makeshift team together. Speaking of which, when Kobayashi expressed his own troubles, it was also he who proposed the proposal to promote Aidulu.

"Let's not talk about whether the credit is great or not, thank you so much just now, Sato-kun."

"No, this is what I should do."

As soon as Alice came on stage, the princess, who was used to speaking as a superior, made the atmosphere cold, and it was Sato Kazuma who saved the situation at that time.

Aqua held a different opinion.

"No, it's me! If I hadn't heated up the atmosphere, there wouldn't be so many people gathered!"

"If I hadn't set up the concert, where would you perform?"

"No, it's me!"

"It's me!"

The two started arguing.

Luckily, they were backstage, and Alice on the stage gradually mastered the skills and was able to control it, otherwise the quarrel between the two would definitely make the people in the audience notice something strange.

"Okay, you two."

Kobayashi pulled the two apart in time.

"It hasn't ended smoothly yet, and you're already taking credit. I'll give you a reward after the concert is over."

After hearing what he said, the two put down their quarrel.

Afterwards, Kobayashi looked at Sato Kazuma, whose clothes were a little messy but who was wearing particularly eye-catching equipment, and said, "Come to think of it, you seem to have done a lot of things? These equipment..."

"I specially prepared them!"

Sato Kazuma raised his thumb and said proudly, "Oh, after all, it's a concert. If there are no support items, I always feel that something is wrong."

"Haaa..."

"Also, don't think these are vulgar, but they took me a lot of effort. You can see from the audience in the audience that they only have golden glow sticks, but I have special fans and headbands. In addition, I asked others to make support clothes, and there will be Alice's head portrait later!"

"Uh--"

Kobayashi imagined Sato Kazuma fully armed, and couldn't help shuddering.

"Okay, as long as you are happy."

"Of course I am happy. The glow sticks this time are free, but the fans, headbands and clothes will not be free later. There are also peripherals, autographs, and some limited edition items when necessary... Hehe--"

He smiled very cunningly.

It has to be said that Sato Kazuma is a natural businessman. He can always find ways to make money in strange ways.

On stage.

"I like you the most, I like you the most."

"Whether it is now or in the future, I always believe that you will come back to me again."

"Missing gathers into a river and disperses into sand, invisible and bodyless."

"Flying birds symbolize joy, breaking through the obstacles of the cage, and the heart of love blooms in the light."

"Love and affection will protect you for generations."

"Time flows, the protection of dusk will never separate."

"Missing spreads until forever."

Alice made a heart shape with her hands on her chest. Although she did not have the temperament of a mature idol, the audience in the audience liked the taste of youth, and this amateur concert ended smoothly.

From then on, Alice had a new title.

- Idol Princess.
