[Originium Arts Assimilation] Excellent

For reasons unknown, this active idol is currently boarding with Penguin Logistics. After Penguin Logistics formed a partnership with Rhodes Island, Sora also became a Rhodes Island Operator.
She is able to naturally channel her Originium Arts through her voice to support allies with her unique songs on the battlefield.

Imaging tests reveal clear, normal outlines of internal organs, and no abnormal shadows have been detected. Originium granules have not been detected in the circulatory system and there is no sign of infection. At this time, this Operator is believed to be non-infected.

[Cell-Originium Assimilation] 0%
Operator Sora showed no symptoms of Oripathy.

[Blood Originium-Crystal Density] 0.12u/L
Operator Sora rarely comes into contact with Originium.

A minor celebrity/pop idol girl in Lungmen.
Cute, playful, vivacious, the epitome of the word 'girl.'
Still cannot strike a balance between being an idol and an Operator, but is making strides.

Miss Sora could've chosen a more conventional fighting style, but at her own insistence, Dr. Kal'tsit ultimately designed a custom program for her to better develop her natural talent.
To her credit, Sora put in way more effort than a typical support Operator. Anyone would admit that she was practically born to sing, and the results of this program surpassed all expectations.
Of course, someone who sings on a battlefield draws plenty of enemy attention, so Sora requires more bodyguards than usual. However, she is certainly worth the strategic compromise.

Penguin Logistics naturally had to 'negotiate' with Sora's management agency in order to allow a pop idol to become a courier.
Given that a codename was also part of the package, it's fair to assume that the 'negotiation' wasn't conventional at all, because no agency in its right mind would expose its valuable asset to potential harm without getting something in return.
Rhodes Island is a fair operation, and for the other party to make such a great compromise, Penguin Logistics certainly would pay a huge cost without any underhanded coercion.
Then, what is the cost for Sora to become a PL Operator while retaining her pop idol status? The official contract is too long and complicated to go into here, though it could probably be summed up in three clauses:
One, Penguin Logistics is responsible for Sora's personal safety, and must not let her make any appearance that would damage her image as a pop idol.
Two, wherever Sora goes on a mission, Penguin Logistics is obligated to do their best to promote her and increase her popularity as they see fit, as well as absorbing all costs incurred.
Three, including events or activities described in Clause 2, all revenue derived from Sora's performance as an entertainer must go to the management agency.
Violation of any clause is ground for the agency to terminate the contract to revoke Sora as an Operator.
Following PL's partnership with Rhodes Island, the latter also assumed all the obligations. After all, who wouldn't want a girl as adorable as Sora to be the biggest star in the world?

People always ask: Maybe Sora is a good entertainer, but is she a good Operator?
The answer is affirmative.
She's not too hung up about needing someone to protect her, nor does she wallow in self-pity over not able to defend others with a weapon. She knows her limits and stays within them. No one has to worry about that.
However, that doesn't mean she wishes harm to come to those who guard her, nor does it mean she refuses to pick up arms in defense of others. She's no good at it, but that doesn't keep her from trying.
Every day between practice sessions, Sora clumsily trains her weapon proficiency, hoping to contribute a bit more in battle.
It's thoughts like that which truly make Sora special.

That Sora lass, she managed to fool her fans with impeccable illusions, making them believe she's Lupo.
Perhaps she thought she'd stand out as a Lupo? That does make sense from the trendy perspective...
And that kid, I've seen idols before and they didn't impress me. But then Sora came along and I finally understood why some people worship stars.
Anyway, I taught her an even better way of concealment, usable at any time, so she won't ever need to try to cover her own identity anymore.
Also, I shall design more attire for her to help further her career.

A silver nanny van enters a Penguin Logistics safehouse's closest dropoff point. Cases big and small are hauled out from it.
Clearly, their owner plans to stick around for the long haul. Once every case is finally inside, a Lupo who's been waiting around saunters by the pop idol, stoops down, and nabs a pair of plastic sticks out of an open cardboard box.
'If I'm remembering right... these are glowsticks for the fans?'
'—Huh? Uh, yeah, a fan sent me these. Texas, how come you know what they're for?'
'...I've been to your concerts, and seen your tapes. Hard not to notice all these glowing in a sea of dark.'
'Ohh, I see,' Sora mumbles, casting a brief look around her before returning her gaze.
'So, um, you wanna go to another one? A concert, I mean?'
'When?'
'It could be right here, right now, or maybe tomorrow? I mean, look—' Sora pulls away from the glowsticks, and points around at the boxes. 'This is everything you need to hold a concert, everything you need to live as an idol.'
'I was bringing all of this here... so I could invite you, all of you, to an exclusive show for Penguin Logistics!'
The stage is erected from cardboard boxes, the loudspeakers and panel lighting propped high on the package shelves. Sora includes every hit single from each of her albums in the setlist, pouring her heart and soul, all her thanks, all her passion, and all her most beautiful wishes into her singing and dancing. Aside from the stage size and audience numbers, this concert's no different from the rest, nor is the support from her fans...
...Wait wait wait, what's going on?
Sora's eyes grow wide—Exusiai's using her rifle to shoot at the metal plates hung on either side, the sound bright and clear and somehow keeping perfectly in time with the music; Croissant's next to her banging her maracas on her shield; even Texas is using her sword stance to brandish her glowsticks, her expression stern and serious as ever, making the gap all the more hilarious.
Only Emperor sits aloof in this absurd scene, listening silently and intently, like he's the only one actually concentrating on being a spectator.
Sora almost hears the canned audience laughter play in her head, and she cracks up too. This concert is everyone's concert, the chorus of Penguin Logistics.

'I think that was the most unforgettable concert I've ever had.'
'Shucks, Sora, ya go and hold such a special performance just fer us, s'obvious we gotta give somethin' back somehow. Ain't that so, Baws?'
'All I can say is, not bad for bubblegum pop.'
'I think I'mma translate for him: Sora, you sing MIGHTY fine!'
'Yeah. It was amazing.'
'And don't forget, our accompaniment was spot on too!'
At first, Sora shakes her head, then nods, and keeps nodding. She grins, and with all the gratitude she has, runs straight into her circle of friends' giant group hug.
