Later that night, Seiji chatted online with Tomohisa Juumonji for the first time in a long while.
The last time he talked to his otaku friend about Feng Wu, the incident with Little Shi happened, so they hadn't contacted each other until now.
"Have you found an artist yet?"
"This humble one has already contacted many artists online, but only a few have expressed interest in making a video game, and most of them only asked for money and didn't want to work with us. Those who are willing to work with us said that they'd like to read the script first before making a decision. "
"Hmm... that's understandable."
"That's why, Seigo, we need a script! At the very least, we need a rough plan to convince others to join us. "
"A script... I have an idea, but I haven't started writing it yet."
Seiji told Tomohisa about how he was busy writing his story, as well as the fact that he already had a short story published.
"Whoa, you actually had a story published? That's amazing! This can be used as material to convince others to join us! "
"Your younger sister already knew about this. Didn't she tell you?"
"I haven't been in contact with Feng Wu recently. How is she doing?"
"In my opinion, she's doing well. She's having fun being a health teacher. That's what she said herself. "
"That's good, then."
A moment of silence fell between them.
"As for the script, I'd like your opinion... basically, let's discuss and decide on a general direction," Seiji continued.
"Do you think a normal romantic comedy is better, or something special with a special theme would be better?"
"Please elaborate on the latter," Tomohisa said.
"Options include... a suspenseful theme." For example, When Cold Cicadas Cry.
"A warm family theme." For example, Clannad.
"A trap theme." For example, Girl Loves O Sister.
"A love triangle theme." For example, White Album.
"A supernatural demon theme." For example, Saya Song.
"A demon training theme." For example, Night Shift Building.
"A harem collapse theme." For example, Japanese High School.
"That's all for now. If you have a good theme, you can bring it up," Seiji said.
"No, I think there are enough choices!" Tomohisa sent an impressed emoji. "Lord Seigo, which one do you like the most?"
"Why are you suddenly using honorifics? My personal favorite is the ordinary romantic comedy at the beginning. If I had to choose from the latter, it would be the warm family theme. "
"That's pretty much the way of a king."
"Because I am a pure and decent gentleman!"
"Where's the truth?"
"I want the most blissful harem! The main character and all the heroines were passionately in love, and their lives were harmonious and beautiful, without a trace of misfortune! Throw all the weird stuff into the trash can, and abandon all the bad thoughts!! "
"The Way of the King has reached such a level that it's a little scary."
"This is me! What do you think? Do you have something to say!? "
"No, I offer my heartfelt respect."
"That's more like it. My habit has been exposed. What about yours? "
"Please allow me to keep it …"
"Speak!!"
"This humble one's favorite is the trap theme! A cute boy wearing women's clothing and sneaking into a girls' school is interesting, and there's plenty of room for imagination. Creating a harem and fake yuri in women's clothing is just the tip of the iceberg! This theme should have been developed even further, such as combining it with ghost animal training, suspense hunting, love triangle, harem destruction, and so on to create a deeper storyline!! Ghost Beast Training and Mystery Hunting are my second favorite! The former can help me vent all my desires, while the latter can easily express my inner feelings!! The third is the triangles and harem destruction! Everyone should be in pain right now! Be jealous, fight, and die! Your explosions shall be my pleasure!! "
"How sinister."
"That's me! How about it? Do you have any objections!? "
"No, I respect your courage to face yourself with sincerity."
Tomohisa sent a series of touched emojis and handshake emojis.
Seiji also sent a series of flashing emojis and handshake emojis.
The two of them reached a telepathic connection through the computer screen.
Then, they calmly discussed the actual content they wanted to create.
"If I want to attract people with a first impression, I'll need a special theme."
Seiji sighed after discussing it for a while.
"Normal romantic comedies are the most charming if they're written well, and they have the widest audience, but they naturally lack an impact that can be felt at first glance."
"Yes, it's very difficult for normal romantic comedies to attract people with a short introduction, and that's what we need the most right now in order to attract excellent artists who are willing to cooperate with us," Tomohisa told him.
"Then let's use your favorite trap as the theme. To be honest, I'm a little … but it's true that it's interesting, so it's worth writing about, "Seiji told him.
"Ohh, Seigo -sama!" Tomohisa sent an excited and grateful emoji.
"As for everything else, I'll think about it … let me think about it for a while before we talk."
"Okay! This humble one sincerely looks forward to it!! "
…
Later that morning, between classes.
Seiji received a message from Genji Asamiya. She said that she wanted to meet him.
'Sure, but why?' He replied.
'There's something I want to say.' She replied.
'What could it be?' Seiji thought about it.
After class, he walked out of the classroom and headed for Year 1 Class 3, where he met the purple-haired girl.
"What is it, Asamiya-san?"
"I'd like to make an appointment to eat lunch with Harano -san."
"Huh?" Seiji blinked in surprise.
"Harano -san has always been eating lunch with Uehara and Wakaba -san, right? This time, I want to have Harano -san to myself, so please leave them for once and come eat lunch together with me. "Genji smiled.
"Er … can't we all eat together?"
"No, because I have something important to tell Harano -san … something that I can't let them know about." The purple-haired girl pressed a finger to her lips as something flashed in her eyes. She spoke in a mischievous tone.
This small action, combined with her words, seemed rather alluring.
Seiji's heart wavered slightly.
"What's so important about it?"
"You'll know when the time comes. For now, let me give you a little hint …"
Genji moved closer to Seiji. He reflexively wanted to retreat, but she pulled on his sleeve.
When she was close enough, she looked into his face and whispered something.
Seiji was attracted by her beautiful appearance and faint fragrance, but he also heard what she said and raised his eyebrows.
"That's it then. It's a promise, Harano -san."
After giving him the hint, Genji let go of his sleeve and took a step back. She flashed a moving smile before turning around and leaving.
Seiji watched her enter the classroom.
'I didn't expect to hear that … could it be …' A guess flashed through his mind.
From the students' perspective, the purple-haired beauty and the handsome boy's conversation, moving closer, and then separating seemed rather ambiguous and mysterious. It was just like a scene from a teen romance movie.
"Class 3's' Princess' and class 5's' Magic-Devouring Dragon '…"
"What did they say?"
"I heard that the 'Princess' confessed to the 'Magic-Devouring Dragon' during the school festival, but was rejected."
"I heard this rumor as well, but what's going on here?"
The students gossiped amongst themselves.
Seiji didn't pay attention to any of this. He stood there for a while before returning to his classroom. However, he saw that Mika and Chiaki were looking in his direction.
