"Metamorphosis?"
Hearing this name, Ying Lili and Kashima's eyes lit up.
The former completely felt that the name Mu Fan came up with was very suitable for the essence of the manga's plot, while the latter felt that the word "metamorphosis" alone had a particularly deep meaning. He was secretly looking forward to what kind of plot this manga would have.
However, Kashima carefully thought about it. When he remembered that this manga was written by Kashiko, he gave up on the expectations in his heart.
Although the name was good, the author was not reliable. Moreover, she wrote a low IQ and low EQ novel like "A Guide to Love in the Magic Academy." At first glance, he knew that this manga would not do well.
Maybe it was just the name that was stained with the light of the mortal world that made the name good?
Kashima naturally saw that it was a name that Mu Fan came up with temporarily. He thought to himself and then helped Mu Fan sign up.
After signing up, Mu Fan and Ying Lili were led by Kashima to the audience and waited for the results to be announced.
In the entire venue, there were special seats for the artists and the audience members. The reason why they were separated was that some fans of the artists could take the opportunity to take photos with their favorite artists.
Mu Fan and Ying Lili had just arrived at the artists' seats under the lead of Kashima when many boys surrounded them.
Many people with cameras and mobile phones surrounded Ying Lili. "Hello, we are your loyal fans. Can you take a photo with us?"
"Loyal fans?"
Ying Lili's expression turned cold. She looked at Kashima who led her and Mu Fan to the audience.
A layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on Kashima's forehead. He hurriedly waved his hand and explained, "You know, I have been with you all the time. How could I have the time to reveal your identity?"
Now that Ying Lili had left the venue in a fit of anger and did not participate in the Comic Festival, if the leaders knew that he was the one who drove Ying Lili away, he would be punished.
"That's strange?"
Ying Lily frowned and looked back at the people who claimed to be her fans. After a moment of silence, she seemed to have thought of something. She smiled and asked, "Which one of my works do you like?"
Hearing Ying Lili's question, Mu Fan almost laughed out loud. Previously, he had only teased Ying Lili about Kashima. He did not expect Ying Lili to use it so quickly.
From the expressions of the boys just now, Mu Fan could already guess the purpose of these people.
The boys widened their eyes. They did not expect that Ying Lili would ask so directly. How could they know what kind of artist Ying Lili was? They just wanted to take a photo with such a beautiful and cute girl. Wouldn't it be awkward if they could not name her work?
Fortunately, one of them was quick-witted and said, "We all like your works!"
Hearing this, the other boys echoed, "That's right. Like all of them. Like all of them?"
Although Ying Lili was sometimes a little arrogant, she was still smart and quick-witted. She was not anxious and continued to ask, "Then which one of my characters do you like?"
The boys' foreheads were covered with a layer of cold sweat. Under the venue's lights, they shone with a sparkling luster. They just wanted to take a photo with her and did not expect so many questions. They could only echo, "We like all of them. We like all of them."
Hearing this, Ying Lili's face darkened. She looked at the boys and said in a terrifyingly cold voice, "You are not my fans at all, right?"
"Wh … Why?"
The boys who wanted to take a photo with her trembled.
Ying Lili pointed at Mu Fan and said, "Because I am not a mangaka. The man beside me is a mangaka. I am only his assistant! You said you like my works, but I don't have any works. What do you like? "
When the boys saw that Ying Lili had exposed them, their faces turned pale. They looked at Mu Fan and shook their heads crazily, "I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear it. How can such a cute girl not be a mangaka? Then what is this mangaka's name? "
Ying Lili put her hands on her waist and said, "He is the mangaka of the manga that you all use to pass the time — Hideri Kashiwagi!"
A few of the boys immediately ran away with blushing faces.
As they ran, they said, "Hideri Kashiwagi is really an otaku. He is too scary!"
Hearing the voices of the boys, Mu Fan's face turned green. He looked at Ying Lili speechlessly.
Speaking of which, can you not make me take the blame for your manga? Although the plot was written by him, the credit for drawing such a seductive Allie was all yours!
Also, why are you not taking photos if Hideri Kashiwagi is me?
If Ying Lili said that Hideri Kashiwagi is me, you all would not be able to resist pouncing on her, right?
Right?
"Se … Senior?"
At this moment, Mu Fan felt someone tugging at his sleeve. He turned around in shock and saw a beautiful girl with purple hair that reached her ears. She wore a kimono on her petite body and looked as delicate as a porcelain doll.
Qianshou Murakami?
Mu Fan was stunned. He had seen Qianshou Murakami at the author's meeting. He did not expect to meet her here. He could not help but smile and said, "Hello …"
Mu Fan was stunned again. Should he call her Qianshou Murakami? It would be inappropriate to call her a pen name, right?
"Qianshou Murakami Sensei, how should I address you?"
Qianshou Murakami's face was flushed red. She said softly, "My real name is Mei Yuanhua."
"Then I'll call you Huahua," Mu Fan said with a smile.
"Huahua?"
Qianshou Murakami's face was as red as fire, but she did not refute. She lowered her head and nodded. "Yes."
Can you be more shameless? You just met and you're already calling a girl Huahua?
Moreover, she is still a junior high school student, okay?
Ying Lili was a little unhappy when she saw Mu Fan chatting with Qianshou Murakami so quickly. She looked at Mu Fan with disdain.
She wanted to see what Mu Fan could say to Qianshou Murakami in front of her.
Qianshou Murakami grabbed her collar tightly. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Senior, are you really Hideri Kashiwagi Sensei?"
Hearing this question, Kashima also looked over curiously. He scratched his head and asked with his mouth twitching, "Sensei Twilight Mortal Dust, are you really Hideri Kashiwagi Sensei or not? This beautiful girl is just your assistant, right? "
Mu Fan's face immediately darkened.
Don't you guys have a strange understanding of the words' beautiful girl '?
Could it be that girls who hung the three words' 2D 'were all otherworldly?
Even now, you still don't believe that Ying Lili is Hideri Kashiwagi. Why can't Ying Lili be Hideri Kashiwagi?
Mu Fan rolled his eyes. "Just now, Hideri Kashiwagi Sensei casually made up a lie to deal with the photo being taken. You guys believe it!"
Hearing Mu Fan's explanation, Qianshou Murakami and Kashima nodded in understanding. Many manga artists would find some reason not to take a photo with them. Hideri Kashiwagi's identity was indeed not good to expose, so Ying Lili's lie was normal.
Qianshou Murakami also understood that the person she helped Mu Fan to take care of at the hotel venue last time was actually Hideri Kashiwagi. She looked at Mu Fan and asked curiously, "Then, senior, why are you here?"
"Because our Hideri Kashiwagi Sensei drew a manga and is preparing to submit it here."
Mu Fan didn't avoid it. Qianshou Murakami wasn't a narrow-minded person, and she was also very confident in her own strength. She wouldn't alienate him and Ying Lili just because they registered for the competition.
Qianshou Murakami looked at Mu Fan in surprise and asked, "Senior, did you write the plot? If it was you, you might surpass me and get first place. "
Mu Fan smiled and said, "How is that possible? Huahua, you're so outstanding. This time, Kashiko is the one who wrote the script. Because she has something to do, she can't come, so I had to help."
"Kashiko?"
Hearing this, Qianshou Murakami's expression became serious.
Recently, the matter of Kashiko in Dengeki Bunko had become too hot. There were even many comments in her book review section that asked her to maintain the quality of her updates and not imitate Kashiko.
Actually, Qianshou Murakami and Kashinoku Shiyu used to submit the same issue in Dengeki Bunko. When she thought about how they had both submitted at the same time and how their sales were good, she couldn't help but feel a sense of sympathy when she heard the comments of the editors of Dengeki Bunko. They were both young girls.
If she hadn't helped Mu Fan take care of Ying Lili last time, she would have wanted to greet Kashiko. However, now that Kashiko didn't update and became a fallen God-level author, Qianshou Murakami felt a little regretful that she couldn't see her in Dengeki Bunko anymore.
But this time, when she heard Mu Fan say that the short manga this time was written by Kashiko, Qianshou Murakami became excited.
In terms of Dengeki Bunko, she felt that Kashiko was the one with the most potential.
Although Mu Fan seemed to be a genius in Dengeki Bunko, he didn't seem to have improved much from "Accelerated World" to "Blessings for a Beautiful World". It could be said that there was almost no improvement.
However, Kashiko became famous with one book, which proved her potential and talent.
In her opinion, Kashiko was the same as her. They both lacked real practice and stabilized their talent in novels step by step.
However, she was lucky that her new book didn't fail.
Kashiko, on the other hand, was unlucky that her new book failed. However, this didn't affect the progress of the novel. On the contrary, it would be easier for her to grow after finding her own shortcomings.
This was because when one stood at the top of the novel's achievements, they wouldn't be able to see the shortcomings. On the contrary, the lower one was, the more difficult it was. Only then could one grow in adversity.
Kashiko only needed to survive the most difficult time in the novel. Relying on her own efforts, she would be able to succeed bit by bit in the midst of failure. Then, she would be able to create a miracle in the sales of light novels.
One had to know that there were many short-lived authors in Dengeki Bunko. They were all authors with potential. The reason why they didn't become gods was because they gave up writing during the most difficult time.
As long as they persevered, they would definitely succeed. Not to mention a talented light novel author like Kashiko!
Thinking of this, Qianshou Murakami raised her head excitedly and looked at the results of the works announced on the stage. Currently, her works were ranked first with an average score of 92 points. How many points would Kashiko's works get?
Seeing the excited expression on Qianshou Murakami's face, Mu Fan was stunned. Then, the corners of his mouth curled up and he smiled slightly.
It seemed that there were people who supported his senior.
