[The male lead is a natural talent who genuinely doesn't put volleyball first.

He's doing it purely because he's lovesick. First-time writer, OOC warning.]

Ever since giving up tennis at the age of ten and switching to beach volleyball, Hanayain Haruka's life had gone smoothly. At just fifteen, he represented France at a tournament in Rome, only to be betrayed by his teammate. Just as everyone was feeling sorry for him and looking forward to his return in two years, the boy quietly changed his nationality, returned to Japan, and went back to living the life of a young master.

After lying low for two years, just as everyone thought he would give up competing and inherit the family business, he enrolled at Inarizaki High School and once again demonstrated astonishing skill on the court.

On the first day of summer vacation, Kurokawa, a second-year student at Teitan High School, was searching everywhere for a part-time job. On a classmate's recommendation, he decided to try the latest job-hunting app. But a browser ad tricked him into downloading something else. Only after the download finished did he realize that an app called [Dokidoki~ Heartbeat Volleyball Club] had appeared on his phone, and no matter what he did, he couldn't uninstall it.

With no other choice, he left it alone and continued looking for work. But after falling asleep that night, something unexpected happened: he entered the game's world in his dreams, which was exactly like a real game. He could see the stats and affection levels people had toward him. The game even had a survival system, and he had to figure out how to earn enough to cover his living expenses in the game.

There was no System in the game. The only guidance he had was the message on the last page of the character screen: [Clear the game by successfully winning over any character to unlock the completion reward.]

To escape the miserable fate of working part-time in two worlds at once, Kurokawa had no choice but to find a way to win over the characters. But then something even more despairing happened.
