A Perfect Life Beginning as a Light Novel Writer

Chapter 291 Conversation and Development

The biggest difference between the works of Hunter x Hunter and ordinary bloody battle comics is that in the battles in this kind of works, the protagonist's own ability and strength are not the most important.

The most important thing is the IQ of the protagonist, and the ability to adapt to changes during the battle.

Among the works of this style in the parallel world, the most typical one is jojo.

In fact, in the hunter comics of Dragon Kingdom, this point has been reflected from the first chapter.

The protagonists, Kukapica and Leorio, don't push all the way when they meet the enemy. They roar out of desperation, explode the seeds, burn the small universe, and then defeat the enemy inexplicably.

In this way, although the process of watching is very enjoyable, in fact, if you re-watch it afterwards, you will feel that the plot is illogical.

The battle of this work, from the analysis before the battle, to the trial of the battle process and the end of the battle, will have a relatively detailed description.

And when the plot was serialized to the Tower of Trials plot in January, the impact of this style on the audience became stronger.

Qiya, Xiaojie, Leorio, Kurapika and Fat Uncle, Dongba, who is known as the newcomer killer in the hunter test, were divided into a group by the hunter association examiners for various reasons in the Tower of Trials. By majority voting, the direction of walking and various team choices at critical moments are determined through the buttons on the watch.

In fact, starting from here, the audience can basically feel the interesting point of this work.

For example, when the protagonist team was undecided whether to go right or left in the tower, Kurapika directly explained the psychology of ordinary people who would choose to go left when they were helpless. The students all know this knowledge. If you go left, there may be various traps waiting for the organizer of the hunter assessment, so the team unanimously decided to go right.

And, shortly thereafter, the main five meet the gang of prisoners who snipe at them.

As long as they are delayed here for an hour, the sentence can be reduced by one year, and the protagonist and the others want to pass through the platform where these prisoners are guarding the gate, so the five of them can only fight one-on-one with the opposite prisoner.

In this week's plot, just when fans thought they could see Xiaojie, who appeared in the first battle, a hearty battle.
No one expected that the plot would turn into pure psychological warfare
The prisoner who is fighting against Xiaojie has two candles in his hand, one is long and the other is short. Xiaojie needs to choose which candle will burn longer.

Normal people, seeing this kind of competition, will definitely feel that the long candle must be tampered with, maybe the short candle can burn for a longer time
But Xiaojie, as the protagonist of this game, and the top-notch natural guy, didn't think about anything, and chose the long candle directly on the grounds that the long candle burns longer.

And as Xiaojie, who is naturally stupid, the middle of the long candle he chose was burning gunpowder, so he chose to ignore the strong wind in the tower. After all, a candle with a gunpowder wick would not be blown out at all. He put the candle on the ground, Then run directly to the dueling prisoner and blow out the candle in his hand.

After this week's plot was serialized, Xia Yan's comic fans were actually a little confused.

The battle comics that were agreed, why did the protagonist not appear in a single battle after more than a dozen episodes were serialized.

What's even more weird is why I am so fascinated by watching such a work.

"Damn it, the old thief's manga is really interesting! It's completely different from the shounen manga I read before."

"Indeed, if you look back at the previous chapters of The Old Thief, you will find that the old thief seems to remind our readers of one thing from the beginning to the end, that is, all the battles in Hunter are not physical duels, but Battle of the brains."

"It's quite interesting. When Xiaojie realized that there was gunpowder in his candle, and the wind couldn't extinguish his candle, he ran over to blow out the candle in the hand of the transgressive prisoner. I was actually quite excited to watch this plot."

"Although from the perspective of hindsight, you may think that Xiaojie's actions are not very wise, but at that moment in the comics, you really would not have thought that the protagonist would do this."

"I feel that Xiaojie doesn't look like a natural daze, but more like a natural black."

"I also feel the same way. Sometimes an inexplicable sentence not only makes the enemy speechless, but also chokes his own teammates."

"But it looks so joyful! This comic!"

"I feel the same way. Although there is no such emotionally volatile plot, from the first episode to the present, I basically laugh every week and finish the plot with a happy mood."

"Although the plot is also tantalizing, it won't stop at a place that makes you completely unbearable like the initial D."

"Does everyone feel this way? I thought it was just me."

The work of Hunter, at the moment when Dragon Kingdom was born, was a top-notch and popular work.

Because its creator is Xia Yan who just created "Initial D".

Even though its early stage of the plot is a little flat, it still does not affect its serialization from the first episode of its birth to the present, and it is the first work of the "Beizhou" journal.

This situation is actually similar to that of the hunter in the island country of the parallel world.

In the parallel world island country, when the work Hunter was born, who was its author?
Not long after the serialization of Yuyu Hakusho ended, Yoshihiro Togashi, the genius creator in the manga world.

And what kind of work is Yuyu Hakusho?
It was a popular masterpiece that rivaled the popularity of Slam Dunk, Saint Seiya and Dragon Ball in the island country comics during the serialization period.

But in fact, after the work of Hunter was born, few people mentioned Togashi Yoshihiro's formerly popular manga Yuyu Hakusho.

The reason is simple because Hunter is a manga that completely surpasses Yu Yu Hakusho.

Even though it was a little slow in the early stage and the progress of the plot was a little slow, in fact, when it was serialized to the plot of the Tower of Trials, this period had already passed.

Just the candle burning match between Xiaojie's debut in the Tower of Trials and the prisoner has already made a group of comic fans in Longguo feel fun.

Although this work is labeled as a boy's bloody battle manga, there is not a single battle in more than a dozen episodes, but who cares?

As long as the work is interesting.

Although it was the Chinese New Year period, Xia Yan was always paying attention to the comments about hunters on the Internet.

A work, just relying on the popularity and reputation he has accumulated in the past, may be able to gain a high degree of attention in the first one or two months of serialization, but if the plot itself does not attract the audience, the audience will definitely be fast after a long time. elapsed.

And after Hunter No. 13 was serialized, and after reading the speeches of fans on the Internet, Xia Yan also knew very well that fans have moved from the logical closed loop of paying attention to Hunter comics passively because they follow Xia Yan.

Gradually shifted to the transformation process that I felt that the manga of Hunter was very interesting from the bottom of my heart.

This also made Xia Yan breathe a sigh of relief.

Although the possibility is relatively low, it's not like Xia Yan didn't think that hunters would be unpopular in the Dragon Kingdom because of the unacceptable environment, but looking at it now, it's because he was worrying too much.

At this time, there are still ten days before the Spring Festival, and it is already snowing heavily in the magic city. There are four people in Xia Yan's huge villa on weekdays, but it actually seems empty. Now only he and Tang Yin are left , it seems that the atmosphere is lonely.

Xia Yan was working on the company's business plan for next year with a laptop at the table in the living room, while Tang Yin was working out with a fitness blogger on the fitness mat next to her.

"I said Xia Yan, it's so boring!"

Tang Yin took a shower, changed into a light white pajamas, and sat directly beside Xia Yan.

Her hair was still wet, her body had a faint fragrance of shower gel, and her face was slightly red.

If Song Lingyun and Mo Ran were still around on weekdays, Tang Yin would definitely not be hanging out in the living room dressed up like this, but now that the two of them have gone home for the New Year, Tang Yin naturally doesn't have so many worries.

After all, she and Xia Yan have been dating for almost half a year, and the two have secretly dated, shopped, held hands, and even kissed at the company not once or twice.

"Bored? I can't help being bored! It's snowing heavily outside now, and I can't find a place to play." Xia Yan also sighed.

"Why don't you find a movie projected on the wall?"

Indeed, because of the manga serialization, animation production, and novel creation on weekdays, he has no time to feel bored at all.

But now, both the comic book club and the novel book club are on holiday, and in order to cooperate with their work, Xia Yan and Mo Ran have handed over the serial drafts for the Chinese New Year two weeks in advance to the company, and no one is urging Xia Yan to draft.

As for Xia Tang Animation, yesterday the employees happily received the year-end award, and also started the half-month annual long vacation.

"." Tang Yin.

Tang Yin looked at the pajamas she had put on, and the body that was so close to Xia Yan. She didn't expect Xia Yan to give her such an answer?

"Ahem." Tang Yin coughed twice.

Xia Yan paused slightly as he looked at the notebook in his hand.

Tang Yin's cough finally reminded him.

A couple, there is no light bulb at home, and the girlfriend talks to you about being bored at night.
Xia Yan turned her head to look at Tang Yin's face.

Fair, beautiful, delicate, and there is a seductive look in the clear pupils.

Although the two have been dating for half a year, they are still only in the kissing stage. After all, they are both in love for the first time, and they are both quite conservative.

"that."

Xia Yan wanted to say something, but after looking at Tang Yin's expression, she finally didn't want to say anything. After closing the laptop, she leaned to the side, hugged Tang Yin's shoulder and kissed her.

The hand also followed Tang Yin's nightdress to touch the abdomen.

One minute later, both Xia Yan and Tang Yin were panting, looking at each other very close to each other.

"That's it...?" Tang Yin blushed slightly, seeing Xia Yan's still hesitating expression, she directly gave him a shot in the arm.

"What are you thinking?" Xia Yan stopped hesitating when he heard the words, hugged Tang Yin's body by the waist, and walked to his room.

Although there was no one in the living room, Xia Yan was still not used to being on the sofa.

In the room, Xia Yan didn't turn on the light, and put Tang Yin on the bed, and then he also went up and covered her with a quilt.

The next day, Xia Yan woke up before five o'clock in the morning, and Tang Yin's smooth body beside him was tightly pressed against him.

Tang Yin's head rested on Xia Yan's arm, and her hair was scattered on the bed.

Although Xia Yan knew that it would not be long before he and Tang Yin got to this point, he really did not expect that the two of them would reach this point logically after only two light bulbs left in the house for less than a week.

"How is it? What are you thinking?"

Tang Yin actually couldn't fall asleep at this moment, and after noticing that Xia Yan's breathing sound had changed, she looked up at Xia Yan and said.

"It's nothing. It's just" Xia Yan thought about the time when he first met Tang Yin.

At that time, she was still her own novel editor, but now, she has become her girlfriend, and the two share the same pillow.

"I remembered when I first met you more than four years ago."

"I didn't expect us to be like this two or four years later." Xia Yan laughed.

"Ah..." Tang Yin blushed upon hearing this.

"I didn't expect that either. At that time, I thought you were a shy elementary school boy."

"So, do you have thoughts about me since then?" Tang Yin suddenly thought of something, looked at Xia Yan and said.

"I have regarded you as my younger brother for a long time, did you want to bully me like this in your heart at that time?"

"How should I say it?" Xia Yan thought carefully.

"At that time, I really liked you. After all, you are so beautiful, and I have to go to your house every week to submit manuscripts and get along with you. At that time, you were really attractive to me."

"Hey, it's so easy to fall in love with me? Then you and Song Lingyun also meet at my house every week, and now Mo Ran, you won't do the same to them, right?" At this moment, Mo Ran's eyes were full of meaning, suddenly asked with a smile.

"What are you thinking?" Xia Yan was taken aback and then smiled.

"My current girlfriend is you, and the person staying by my side is you. This is the truth! If I feel so insecure, I will buy a new house and we just move out. It will be a little troublesome if it is like this, after all, Song Lingyun is also One of our company's board members, Mo Ran, communicates with me every day about the details of comic drawing and the style of the work, but the influence is not too great, and it only takes half an hour to commute every day."

"But... what if it's not you who treat them, but them?" Tang Yin said suddenly, but in the middle of speaking, she paused and then stopped.

"What happened to them?" Xia Yan asked.

"It's nothing." Tang Yin leaned her forehead on Xia Yan's chest and said in a low voice.

Xia Yan blinked, forget it, not only Tang Yin, Song Lingyun, Mo Ran also often did this, he hesitated to speak halfway through his speech, anyway, he couldn't figure out what they wanted to say, so he was too lazy to think about it.

He hugged Tang Yin's silky body with his backhand, and then covered the two of them again with the quilt.

Another three days later, at the Liuli Publishing House, the year-end promotion started.

In addition to a [-]% discount on the last issue of "Liu Li" at the end of the year, it also comes with a poster of all the characters of Sword Art Online, a photocopy of Xia Yan's recent signed photo, and an Asuna key ring.

And, the screaming chicken doll with Xu Xiang's head on it.

Some insignificant small gifts, but for fans, the temptation is huge.

Sword Art Online's alo chapter is also progressing to the later stage. The role of Xu Xiang has tortured fans for almost half a year, and has already made fans full of anger. At this time, the official revitalizes it, and fans are naturally very happy.

Obviously, such small activities are quite helpful to the sales of journals.

Soon, two days later
The manga of Hunter x Hunter No.15 is officially released along with the periodical.
