A middle school cartoonist

Just as there is competition between several cartoonists on the cartoonist side, there is also competition between the editors-in-charge of several cartoonists on the weekly editorial side! Especially when the [Big Brawl] of Makoto Takahashi and others started, the secret competition between the editors-in-charge of several new serials also began!

Of course, this is a healthy competition. The editors-in-charge of the weekly magazines will naturally not be stupid enough to destroy the signboard of the weekly magazine because of internal fighting! So don’t look at the surface. The editors-in-charge of the weekly magazine always like to use sharp words to play the game of [hurting each other], but in fact, the editors-in-charge of the weekly magazine also share the information obtained from the cartoonist side in this way to prevent certain unexpected events...

What is [certain unexpected events]? For example, a willful genius cartoonist who wants to temporarily replace the serialized comics, or a middle school cartoonist who always likes to make trouble and launches some purposeless and meaningless things for no reason, or a cartoonist of a good friend group who is stubborn to the point of paranoia... and so on!

Therefore, in less than a day, the editor-in-chief Yujiro, who is a "weekly editor's lackey", revealed Nizuma Eiji's evaluation and prediction of the manga "One Punch Man" to Yoshida, who is also a "weekly editor's lackey"!

"Eh? Did Nizuma Eiji really say that?" Yoshida pinched his chin and looked at Yujiro in surprise. After seeing the latter's repeated assurances, Yoshida's doubts deepened! "That doesn't make sense! Cheng told me before that it would take a long time to think about how to complete the subsequent plot of the comic "One Punch Man"..."

"...Isn't the result obvious, Yoshida-kun?" Yujiro pondered for a moment, and patted Yoshida's shoulder sympathetically, "You said you haven't figured out how to conceive the comic... You must have been deceived by Mr. Hououin Kyouma! Mr. Hououin Kyouma is very likely... No, he must have thought of the subsequent plot of the comic "One Punch Man"! After all, Mr. Hououin Kyouma is a [monster-level comic artist] who is as famous as [genius comic artist] Nizuma-kun!"

Deception or something, it shouldn't be that serious... Originally, Yoshida wanted to say this, but when he thought of the [joyful] smile of a certain chuuni comic artist, he decisively swallowed back what he wanted to say, and then sighed inexplicably, and nodded helplessly to agree with his colleague's words!

"Yoshida-kun, let me tell you, Nizuma-kun's predictions about comics have never been wrong!" Yujiro, who had obviously regarded Nizuma Eiji as a "great prophet of comic artists", showed a fanatical look on his face when he saw Yoshida agree with his words... Then Yujiro, who tried to develop Yoshida into a fanatical believer, immediately changed the topic, "Since Nizuma-kun said so, then the next three chapters of the comic "One Punch Man" by Hououin Kyouma will definitely be very exciting..."

"Well, it would be great if that's the case..." Yoshida was obviously a little absent-minded to perfunctory Yujiro, and at the same time, he was thinking about how to further observe the subsequent plot of the comic "One Punch Man" from Makoto Takahashi in advance...

"Ah, I'm looking forward to it too!" Yujiro did not notice Yoshida's absent-mindedness, but instead sighed, "The comic plot that can make Nizuma-kun serious... it would be great if I could see it in advance!"

See it in advance?

Although the words were spoken carelessly, the listeners were intentional. Yujiro's casual words reminded Yoshida that a certain chuuni manga artist had given him the comic manuscript of "One Punch Man" in order to declare his "deep love for comics"... Well, it was the "original version" with a very magical style!

Even if Takahashi Makoto deliberately said that the subsequent plot of the comic was not completed, it is not impossible to see the subsequent plot of the comic "One Punch Man" in advance... Just thinking of the magical style of the "original version" and the psychological damage that may be caused to the observer, Yoshida suddenly felt that it was okay to wait for a few days!

Thinking of the twisted and magical style of the "original version", Yoshida's mouth twitched a little... Obviously, it is a comic by the same cartoonist, and it is obviously completed by a certain chuuni manga artist, why is the difference in style so exaggerated?

You must know that the comic "One Punch Man" serialized in the weekly magazine nowadays can really attract readers, not just the interesting plot! In this comic, the sharp style of painting displayed by Makoto Takahashi is also an important factor in the success of this comic!

But look at the style of the [original version]... let alone the storyboards of other cartoonists, it may not be as good as the [Stickman vs. Stickman] drawn by some kindergarten kids!

Watch it or not? This is a decision that requires great courage to make... For Yoshida, reality is full of trials!

So, in order to pass the trial, Yoshida naturally chose...

"... I said, Cheng, are you sure you haven't figured out how to draw the subsequent plot?"

"Of course!" Makoto Takahashi stared at Yoshida for a while, turned his head and complained unhappily, "Tsk, I feel that wasting time on thinking about this kind of thing will greatly hinder my journey with the witch to conquer the demon world..."

"Hey, Cheng, is it too unnatural and fake for you to change the subject? Don't turn your head away! This is obviously a guilty conscience!" Yoshida looked at Takahashi Makoto who looked obviously guilty, He immediately became stronger and his voice became louder, "I've said it before, right? Eiji Niizuma is looking forward to the follow-up plot of your manga! He even tore up the completed manga manuscript and redrawn it... …I’m very curious about the comic plot that allows Eiji Shinzuma to do this!”

"Really?" Makoto Takahashi's long tone gave an editor-in-chief an ominous premonition... and the next words from a middle-class manga artist confirmed Yoshida's uneasy feeling! "Speaking of which, since you are looking forward to the follow-up plot of the comic: My Cat: My Familiar, it also proves that the [original version] of the comic manuscript that was entrusted to you... you didn't read it at all, right?"

"Uh... ugh! Misstep!" Seeing Takahashi Makoto's familiar [joyful] smile after he turned his back on his guests, Yoshida instantly understood that he was unaware that he had done it again without any precautions. Got fooled!

"The reason why you are able to chase the existence like a mirror, the moon in the water, is because your [love] for comics is not deep enough... My Beloved Cat, you are really qualified to observe the comics of "One Punch Man" Draft?" Makoto Takahashi ignored Yoshida's increasingly ugly expression and instead activated the [Taunt] skill with full force! "Tsk, tsk, tsk, after all these years of living, I have never seen such a shameless person!"

"...Grandfather in heaven, is this the moment when you once told me [men have to fight]?"

Yoshida, who already understood that Takahashi Makoto was deliberately delaying his observation of the manga manuscript, naturally came to the door early the next morning, hoping to take advantage of the power of "I have seen through all the truth" to obtain it from Takahashi Makoto. The "One Punch Man" manga manuscript used for serialization... Of course, by the way, I also revealed some information from Yujiro to Makoto Takahashi!

Originally, Yoshida's plan was not wrong, but it's a pity...

It's a pity that Yoshida, who is the editor-in-chief of the weekly, really underestimated the cartoonist Phoenix Inferno who calls himself the "Crazy Demon God"!

"Well, since your performance today, my companion cat, has made me very happy, I can give you a little right to observe the manga manuscript..." Makoto Takahashi looked at the man who was surrounded by the black energy of resentment. Yoshida took out a thick pile of manga manuscripts from the desk drawer and looked at Yoshida with a smile, "In other words, do you want to get My Dependent Cat through fighting? Although you can get more after winning. It’s a comic book, but my companion cat’s fighting prowess... forget it, if it can give you a little more [pleasure], I won’t mind talking about it!”

"I would mind!" After seeing Makoto Takahashi take out the manga manuscript, Yoshida immediately calmed down. Recalling his previous words and deeds that tried to challenge Makoto Takahashi, Yoshida suddenly broke into a cold sweat. After responding forcefully, he immediately Strategically changed the topic! "But compared to other things, as the editor-in-chief, I should naturally give priority to reviewing comic manuscripts!"

"Well, this kind of honest reaction that says you don't need your body, appears on you, the cat of my family... It really makes me sick!" Seeing Yoshida reaching out to grab the manga manuscript, Takahashi Makoto But he moved the comic manuscript a little faster, "Speaking of my companion cat, are you sure you really want to observe the comic manuscript here?"

"Of course!" Yoshida nodded firmly, but his eyes were fixed on the comic manuscript in Takahashi Makoto's hand. After pondering for a moment, he said earnestly, "Speaking of Cheng, I remember I said this before, right? But in order to finish those comic manuscripts, you... stayed up late again, right?"

"Hey, my beloved cat, I just didn't sleep all night... Huh! Don't use your human standards to measure me!" Takahashi Makoto raised the comic manuscript in his hand, "And... who told you these comics? Was the draft completed in one night?”

"Huh? Is that so?" Yoshida also knew that Takahashi Makoto could not complete such a thick stack of manga manuscripts in one night, but he did not continue to discuss this topic. Instead, he asked with some confusion, "You are reading this here. Is there anything inconvenient about the comic manuscript?”

"No, I didn't plan to take Seiji to get a copy of [Yellow-haired Glasses' Go Killing] today, but..." Makoto Takahashi handed the manga manuscript to Yoshida, and under the other's doubtful eyes, he revealed an evil look. With an interesting smile, "It's just my beloved cat, when you are observing the comic manuscript...but don't cry!"
