The first thing that entered Seiji's eyes was the book title that he was anticipating.
"Spring Joy"... "Siblings Disqualified"... "I Am the Younger Sister"... "Brother Monogatari"...
Seiji was rendered speechless.
He felt a strong sense of déjà vu and the aura of siblings!?
"Spring Joy"... the first thing that came to his mind was "Sakura Joy", but when he thought about it carefully, what was the name of another famous book from his previous world? It seemed like "Spring Joy"... did this world have one as well!?
"Siblings Disqualified"... this was probably "Mortal Disqualified"! Or was it this world's version of "XX Disqualified"? At any rate, it was highly likely that it was plagiarized... whoops, imitated.
"I Am the Younger Sister"... could this be an imitation of "I Am the Cat"? Or something else?
"Brother Monogatari"... this was simpler and more ordinary, which made it difficult to comment on.
As for the aura of siblings... that was even more obvious. Seiji felt a little exhausted.
Alright, he focused and read it seriously. "Spring Joy", "I Am the Younger Sister", and "Brother Monogatari" seemed fine, but "Siblings Disqualified"... what the hell was "Disqualified"!?
'This feels rather ominous! I haven't read much and haven't read "Mortal Disqualified" before, so I don't know what it means, but something feels off about it! Little Shi, just what did you want to write with this title!? '
Seiji's cheeks twitched slightly.
When he looked more carefully, he saw the character settings and the general idea of the story.
"Spring Joy": A love story between a young master from a major family and a lonely blind female musician.
"Siblings Disqualified": A forbidden, poignant love story between an older brother and younger sister who are related by blood.
"I Am the Younger Sister": A youthful love story about how handsome and powerful her older brother is from the younger sister's point of view.
"Brother Monogatari": A comedic love story about how the older brother and younger sister get along happily.
Seiji really wanted to facepalm.
Little Shi, there's something wrong with your way of thinking!
Three out of the four stories were about siblings' love stories! Just how much did you like this theme!?
Could it be that in Little Shi's heart... no, stop! Don't think in the direction of reality. A novel is a novel!
However, there were also things that were not easy to write in novels. For example, the disqualification of siblings was a dangerous field with high restrictions!
It would be terrible for a traditional novel to write about such a topic, let alone a light novel. If such a topic appeared, it would definitely be rejected!!
If it was a high-leveled dating sim, then he could consider it. That would have a forerunner, such as Fate and Space … No, no, he should stop thinking about it!
Don't think about it, just delete it.
The other three could be considered for the time being.
Seiji continued reading.
"Spring Joy" … the young master of an aristocratic family and the lonely blind girl are actually cousins … Er, it's hard to judge this, and this theme is a little …
It was better to delete it.
"I Am the Younger Sister" and "Brother Monogatari" … Actually, the only difference was that the characters' perspectives were different. The settings, story, and so on could all be used.
Seiji focused on the content related to these two and found that some of the plots and settings were quite interesting.
After reading it.
He turned to Shika Kagura and saw that the latter was waiting anxiously.
Seeing her like this, Seiji was unable to say anything else he wanted to say. He could only smile.
"What you wrote … Overall, it seems rather crude, but there are still some interesting points," he told her honestly.
Shika Kagura obviously heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. She then smiled faintly.
"You can choose between 'I Am the Younger Sister' and 'Brother Monogatari,' and use all the interesting things there. For example, 'I Am the Younger Sister' and 'Brother Monogatari,' and the romantic comedy plot of 'Brother Monogatari …' "Seiji continued.
Fantasy + mystery + romantic comedy. This reminded Seiji of Nishio's new "Monogatari" series from his previous life.
Although Nishio was quite a scammer, it had to be said that his writing style was quite unique. The anime supervisor Oyuki Shinohara just happened to be on the same wavelength as Nishio's, so he created this anime with the same unique style, and it became quite popular.
Shika Kagura's ideas were quite immature, but Seiji was able to see the possibility.
Seiji decided to let her think about it carefully and let him be the judge. If it was written well, perhaps he could create this world's "Monogatari" series!
"Let me tell you my idea. I'll temporarily set it as the 'adopted younger sister's' point of view, which is' I Am the Younger Sister. 'I'll start from the' mysterious' point of view, and first create a unique adopted older brother character … "
Seiji went on and on.
Shika Kagura listened attentively.
The more she listened, the brighter her eyes became.
Seiji's words guided her train of thought and pointed out a direction for her originally confused imagination.
"… After such a great battle, the mysterious and powerful image of the adopted older brother has reached its peak.
"At this time, I'll expose all the foreshadowing and point out that the 'adopted younger sister' character, which is the narrator of this book, is above the 'adopted older brother,' and is the true mystery of this book! This will shock and confuse the readers.
"At this point, the first volume of this book ends, leaving behind enough suspense to entice the readers to read the second volume.
"That's what I'm thinking, a mystical story with a fantastical setting and a romantic comedy.
"What … what do you think?"
Seiji looked towards Shika Kagura.
Shika blinked and smiled.
"Brother Seiji … you're amazing!"
Seiji heard such praise again. Seiji scratched his face awkwardly.
"It's not that amazing. I just thought of a possible direction.
It's up to you to decide whether or not you want to go in this direction. And if you want to go in this direction, you'll need to think of the specific plot, character settings, background details, and so on. "
"Okay!" Shika Kagura nodded.
Many ideas were already popping up in her mind, and she wanted to immediately write them down.
This was the urge to write … she felt that this was a wonderful feeling.
Seiji could see the passion on Shika Kagura's face.
This was good; this was more like a young girl.
"It's getting late, and I'm going back to my room … If you're going to write later, be careful not to stay up too late."
"Okay … Good night, Brother Seiji."
"Good night, Little Shi."
After watching Seiji leave, Shika Kagura immediately sat down at her desk and began writing.
This was a collaboration between her and her older brother! Thinking of this, she became even more passionate.
…
The next morning.
After breakfast, Seiji followed Summer Night to the basement.
Summer Night opened the third wooden door. Inside was a small and narrow space.
An elevator?
Seiji followed Summer Night inside. He saw her press a downward arrow button, and then the door closed. He felt a slight sense of weightlessness.
As expected, it was an elevator.
A moment later, the elevator stopped, and the door opened.
It was pitch-black in front of him.
Summer Night was the first to step out of the door. Lights instantly lit up in the darkness.
Seiji also walked out and saw that more and more lights were lit up. Finally, the entire space was illuminated by a bright but not blinding light.
