Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, four days had passed.
For the past few days, Mu Fan and Ying Lili had been drawing the manga at Senpai's house according to Senpai's revised plot. At the same time, after drawing, they would confirm with Senpai that it was compatible with the novel.
This was because the Manga Festival also had requirements for the overall quality of the drawings. If it was an ordinary draft, Mu Fan and Ying Lili would have drawn it long ago. However, the requirements of the Manga Festival were relatively higher. Every step needed to be made in detail and then slowly revised. Even every page had to be drawn in an extremely detailed style, which was why it took such a long time.
Two days ago, Mu Fan also received a message from Kawazawa Shisui. Fortunately, the design of Hatsune's future virtual body had been completed, and the tuning and other things were all done. All that was needed was a stage to hold a concert.
Therefore, he called Hatsune Ai, and then Ai used her ten consecutive victories to help Mu Fan obtain the right to use the stadium three days later to hold Hatsune's future concert.
In the early morning, the bright sun shone on the entire Yoto City. The faint sunlight penetrated through the window sill, illuminating the originally dark living room.
At the same time, two extremely excited voices came from the living room.
"It's finally done! Hooray! Hooray! "
Mu Fan and Ying Lili stood up and excitedly raised their hands and clapped, and then sat down respectively.
Mu Fan was fine. With his Level 2 magic talent, physical strength, and mental and physical condition, it was not too much of a problem for him to stay up for four days.
However, Ying Lili was different. She wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, and there were two heavy dark circles around her eyes. Her expression was very slack, and her blonde hair was not even tied into two neat ponytails. It was just messy behind her head, and she looked very miserable.
At this time, Kashinoku Shiyu came over and put two cups of wheat tea on the table. She looked at Mu Fan and Ying Lili and said, "You've worked hard. Sit down and rest first."
For the past few days, Kashinoku Shiyu had not been able to help much because she did not have any talent in comics. She could only watch the two of them from the side. She understood how much Mu Fan and Ying Lili had suffered in order to rush out the manuscript for the Comic Festival. Her heart ached for them.
"It's alright. It's all for the sake of getting first place in the comic festival and turning this comic into a movie. At least our efforts will be rewarded. "
Mu Fan calmly sat down and took a sip of tea.
Although the past few days had been a little tiring, there were finally results. The submission of the comic festival was over, and Chen Yushan had regained her confidence. Then, he could focus on developing Hatsune's future concerts.
At this moment, even Ying Lili did not have the energy to bicker with Kashinoku Shiyu. She sat on the chair and took out her phone to check the time. She patted her face to cheer herself up and said, "We can't rest yet. It's six o 'clock in the morning, and the ranking of the comic festival will end at noon. We have to get there before that."
"So early?"
Mu Fan was stunned for a moment. Although he had always been lazy and did not like things that were too troublesome, he also understood that it was not easy to draw the comic. He absolutely could not waste the time to submit the manuscript because of a break. He hurriedly asked Ying Lili, "Ying Lili, do you know the registration location of the comic festival?"
Ying Lili took out a makeup box from her bag, picked up a wooden comb, and combed her blonde hair in front of the mirror. She said without turning her head, "Well, with our speed, if we rush over now, we can just make it to the opening ceremony."
"Then let's go now."
Mu Fan did not hesitate anymore. He immediately stood up and looked at Chen Yushan and asked, "Chen Yushan, this is the comic we wrote together. Let's go to the comic festival together."
Hearing this, Kashinoku Shiyu's face did not change at all. She said softly, "Chen Yushan, you seem to have forgotten what I promised you. I am only responsible for helping you write the text for this comic festival. Once it is completed, my task will be over. Now, it is time for me to announce in the book that I have given up on becoming a light novel writer. Since I intend to give up my identity as a writer, I am naturally not qualified to participate in the comic festival. So, I will leave everything else to you. But I will be here to wish you all the best in the comic festival and fulfill your wish. "
"Chen Yushan …"
Mu Fan looked at the determined expression on Kashinoku Shiyu's face. He knew in his heart that after this comic festival ended, Kashinoku Shiyu really intended to give up her career as a writer from now on.
Ying Lili was also a little anxious. They had worked so hard so that Kashinoku Shiyu could regain her confidence, but Kashinoku Shiyu was going to give up writing, which made her anxious.
Just as Mu Fan and Ying Lili were about to speak, Kashinoku Shiyu, who saw through their plans, immediately added and interrupted, "This is my decision. You don't have to persuade me. I have already decided that no matter what Chen Yushan and Ying Lili say, I will not go back to how I was before."
Hearing this, Mu Fan's heart sank. After a moment of silence, he pulled Ying Lili, who frowned and was about to speak, and said, "Chen Yushan, this is your decision. Ying Lili and I will not force you."
After pulling Ying Lili to the entrance, Mu Fan looked at Kashinoku Shiyu again and said seriously, "But we will work hard to let the manga written by Chen Yushan win first place in this comic festival!"
"Let's go, Ying Lili, let's go sign up now."
After that, Mu Fan pulled Ying Lili and left Kashinoku Shiyu's house.
Kashinoku Shiyu stood at the door in a daze, watching Mu Fan get on the motorcycle and leave with Ying Lili. Thinking back to Mu Fan's serious eyes just now, a smile flashed across her face, "Thank you for your company, Chen Yushan …"
But after saying this, she sighed again, "The enemy of the comic festival is Qianshou Murakami. Even if their drawing skills are not weak, it is impossible for them to beat the most talented female light novel writer since the creation of the Dengeki Bunko."
Sitting on the motorcycle, Ying Lili asked Mu Fan, who had not said a word in front of her, "Mu Fan, why didn't you persuade her just now? If you had, Kashinoku Shiyu could have become a light novel writer again, right?"
Mu Fan shook his head, "Although Senpai seems to be easy to talk to, she is actually very stubborn. Once she has decided on something, it is impossible to change her mind no matter what we say. Even if we forcefully pulled Senpai back, with her current state of mind, once she is unable to resolve the knot in her heart, there will be a day when she will be troubled by the same thing again. "
Ying Lili, who had always known Kashinoku Shiyu, secretly agreed when she heard this. Kashinoku Shiyu had never regretted her decision, and she was extremely stubborn about the things she had decided on.
But when she heard Mu Fan say this, she asked anxiously, "Then why did you let her participate in this comic festival? Isn't this helping her fulfill her last wish of writing a short story and making her want to give up on light novels even more?"
Mu Fan shook his head stubbornly, "The reason why Senpai gave up on light novels is because she has no confidence in herself. She even thinks that she doesn't have the talent to write novels. The novels that she writes make people feel uncomfortable after reading them have no meaning in continuing to exist. So, I want to use this comic festival to help Senpai regain the confidence she had when she first entered the world of light novels … "
"So, this comic festival is our last chance to awaken Senpai, we must seize it!"
