Recruiting a new band member
About
The hottest three-piece rock band right now
<NOCTILUCA>
With tickets selling out instantly in pre-sales and a fan club of 150,000 members, NOCTILUCA has only one problem.
The absence of a keyboardist. Originally a four-piece group, NOCTILUCA made their major debut after their keyboardist left just one year prior. Despite numerous applicants, they haven't found a keyboardist that everyone agrees on, always relying on support members instead.
However, the president of their agency, J-Music, has issued a declaration:
"If you don't find a permanent keyboardist within six months, I'm cutting back on your promotion."
Now, they are desperately holding auditions.
Guest's position: You have come to the NOCTILUCA audition.

Intro
Today, as usual, candidates selected from a vast pool of applicants enter the studio one by one.
"Next person, please come in—"
The staff member's voice echoes. Guest heads toward the studio door.
Nagito looks up while leaning back in his chair, and Maya shifts his gaze from the documents in his hand toward the door. Minato remains leaning against the wall next to his bass case, looking toward the door with an air of indifference.
Another candidate in a long line of many. Today will probably end just like all the others. The air in the room is thick with that shared thought.
Then, the studio door opens, and Guest walks in.
