How To Live As A Writer In A Fantasy World

Chapter 83

Although Zeno’s biography declared a hiatus and disappointed many people, the ‘Kair Gaiden’ appeared as if to ridicule it.

As the name suggests, Kair Gaiden tells the life of a character named ‘Kair’, and many readers bought the book with expectations and doubts.

If it was someone else’s book, I would have lost interest right away, but it is the work of the author of Xenon’s biography. So, even if it was an outing, there was no choice but to look forward to it.

Although it is not the main story, if it can soothe the emptiness during the long hiatus, the side story was enough.

[Kair’s identity is revealed in the last scene. Never put the ending in your mouth.]

[Although it is a side story, it is a book that is deeply related to the main story of Zeno. A must read for fans.]

[Although it was called an abduction, it is not a simple abduction.]

And the reaction of the readers who read the abode was intense. It was not just a side story like the above evaluation, but it has been transformed into a book that must be purchased to understand the main story.

This is because the true identity of ‘Kair’ was Zeno’s teacher, and the story of the master’s past was contained in the abode.

In what background was the teacher born and raised? What hardships and hardships have you been through? And what kind of relationships did you meet along the way?

How did you meet the woman who would later become the elf queen, and how finally you fell in love with her?

It sweetly melted the love between humans and elves, which was thought to be impossible, and Kair’s silent monologue in particular was enough to touch the hearts of readers.

– How great it would be if I could see her smile like the sun one more time.

As explained before, regardless of race, if mana is treated at a higher level or higher, the aging process will be slower. This is the reason why elves and demons live long, and on the contrary, it is also the reason why humans and beasts have short lives.

Kair was well aware of this, so he trained himself as if he were beating hot iron with a hammer. To see the smile of Elisha, the woman he loves, by recklessly extending her lifespan, which is shorter and shorter than that of the elves.

In this process, he met a person who would later be in charge of ‘jealousy’ and taught him, and finally ended the side story neatly by meeting ‘Zenon’.

[A story that is more sympathetic because it is realistic. Was his effort really meaningless?]

[Elisha knows Kair’s sincerity better than anyone. But that’s why it was difficult to accept.]

So far, many readers have criticized the love story between an elf and a human as being too futile, but when Kair’s sincerity is revealed in the side story, the evaluation is turned 180 degrees. From a realistically impossible story to a story that is likely to happen several times in reality.

Despite the difference in lifespan, they polish themselves to see the smile of their loved one. It was an impossible story unless there was a lot of determination, so it was inevitable to feel even more sad.

When the relationship between Kair and Elisha was revealed in the main story, it was a bit sudden, but it was all clearly resolved in the side story.

[The story of the two becomes more curious. Will their story end in happiness or in tragedy?]

[There have already been several ominous signs. But readers want happiness.]

[If Kair dies, Elisha will suffer too.]

However, readers became even more anxious when the side story appeared. I fear that the tragic story of Kair and Elisha will lead to tragedy at the end.

The words he left to Elisha before Kair left in the main story were enough to instill anxiety in the readers. Furthermore, at the end of the main story, she encounters ‘jealousy’, her disciple.

Only the next main part will be able to resolve this anxiety somehow, but unfortunately, the main part has to pass at least a year. Readers knew that nothing came out of the swarm, so they waited quietly.

Until the publishers give you some startling news.

[Media publishing company will deliver it on your behalf. Xenon said that it is okay to express the scenes in your work in various ways. Whether it is expressed through music, painting, or sculpture. You said it doesn’t matter if you make a profit, so artists are free to express themselves.]

A rare masterpiece, Xenon’s life is expressed through another art. This news alone excited readers who were involved in the art world.

In particular, the reaction of the Kingdom of Ters was very intense, of course, because art occupies a large area for the Kingdom of Ters, a cultural powerhouse.

Although the Minerva Empire used various tactics to extract a lot of culture, there are still famous artists in the Teres Kingdom.

Also, after the Zeroth Revolution broke out, art was transformed into a culture that everyone could enjoy, not just for the nobility. For this reason, the Kingdom of Teres could never miss this golden opportunity.

[The Kingdom of Teres. Artists who want to express Zeno’s biography will be fully supported at the national level, regardless of whether they are new or established. We want a culture that everyone can enjoy.]

The nobles of the Teres Kingdom were spicy compared to the nobles of the Minerva Empire, but in terms of culture, they were quite open.

Conversely, the Minerva Empire was in the process of recognizing art as the exclusive property of the aristocracy, so the majority of artists had no choice but to focus on the Kingdom of Ters.

Even if the empire provided a huge amount of funding, it meant little to the artist. Because this world was in the Middle Ages, where there were people who could not live if it was ‘honor’.

Especially for artists, honor is so important that it can be exchanged for life. In the first place, most people enter the art world for the purpose of fame rather than money, and this is why there is a perception that artists are a hungry profession.

Therefore, he wants to become such an artist that everyone can recognize just by hearing his name when it becomes the exclusive property of the aristocrats. Also, this ‘event’ became a really important turning point for artists.

Because, depending on how you express the scenes in Xenon’s biography and how well you express them, your evaluation will be sharply divided.

[Lirus, the conductor of the Lyrus Band. Tell me that you will compose the life of Sakran even with insufficient skills… I will do my best not to damage the reputation of the work.]

[The painter Imar also sees the end of Sakran… It will be the most meaningful experience in his life.]

The most popular scene was by far the last of Sakran. A scene that played a decisive role in changing the perception of the miserable demons, and is so famous that no one who reads Zeno’s biography will know about it.

As it is the most famous scene, many people had high expectations, and Helium’s attention was inevitably drawn to that as well.

The Princess of Hellium, Cecily, also said that she was really looking forward to it and said that she would visit the exhibition when the time comes.

Of course, besides the end of Sakran, there are various famous scenes that are engraved in people’s minds. Readers waited patiently for the results to come out, and the artists expressed their individuality in their own way.

However, in this process, there were no problems at all, that is, ‘revenue creation’.

Isaac said that he was free to create profits through secondary creation. No matter how hungry an artist may be, that was when he was a rookie, and the story changes as soon as he becomes famous to some extent.

It is true that artists value ‘honor’ rather than ‘money’. However, ironically, it is money, that is, the ransom price, that shows the value more clearly.

Because of this, people thought that they had to pay a high price to see the works of masters, but an unexpected situation occurred here.

[The proceeds will be received in the form of donations. It will be a work that everyone can easily enjoy.]

[Zenon’s biography is a work that can be seen by anyone, regardless of age, gender, or class. I will too.]

[Exhibiting at an expensive price is damaging the reputation of the work. This is unacceptable.]

Not only newcomers, but also established ones who have made a name for themselves have declared that they will receive donations in the form of donations without generating profits.

The reason was really simple. Because I thought that Zeno’s biography was not just a novel, but a ‘culture’ that people of all ages and genders could enjoy.

The decisive reason why Xenon’s biography gained worldwide fame was because of the above reasons, so it was judged that the moment it creates huge profits, it will weigh on the reputation.

If it was Earth, the moment the original author allowed it, they would generate profits by saying they like you and me, but this is a world where honor is more important than life, so the direction is strange.

[The donation will also be used for the development of the cultural world. There are many talented people in the world who die without their talents blossoming.]

[I will do my best to help children achieve their dreams through this work.]

[Collaboration of the Lirus Band and the painter Imar. Other than that, many other artists will be collaborating…]

The butterfly effect, the influence of the second creative permission grew out of control. The artists will express Zeno’s life anyway, so they decided to hold a joint exhibition.

All of the masters have strong self-esteem, but in the end they were nothing more than fans of Xenon’s biography, so I put it aside for a while. On the contrary, they started working together, saying that if they fought among themselves, Isaac would only hate them.

Isaac willingly allowed the secondary creation with the concept of simply receiving ‘fan art’, but the ripple effect far exceeded expectations.

Rather than a culture enjoyed only by certain classes, a ‘culture that everyone can enjoy’ began to be born, and it became the driving force for advancing development.

Of course, there are those who enjoy it and those who don’t.

“No. I’m a writer, but I can’t really enjoy it.”

That person was Isaac, the author of Zeno’s biography and the cause of a stir.

*****

When I saw the news delivered through the newspaper, I couldn’t help but be baffled. The second creation was allowed with the concept of simply receiving fan art, but the scale has grown to the level of an exhibition.

Even where the exhibition will be held, the Minerva Empire and the Teres Kingdom are fighting each other fiercely.

The Minerva Empire shouted that the publishing house should be held near the publishing house because it is located in their country, and the Kingdom of Teres is holding on to it as it will be held in its own capital, saying that it is not bullshit.

‘It’s a pity that I can’t even see the visual art.’

When I sent a letter to the publisher, I asked:

If you don’t know anything else, I ask you to send me a piece of art that you can see with your own eyes. However, the publisher responded that it was difficult.

In the case of a draft, it can also be sent by mail, so there is no fear of being tracked, but in the case of works of art, it is a different story.

Most of the items are very large and cannot be sent by mail, which increases the chances of being tracked.

My father also said that the publisher’s persuasion was reasonable, but he said it was better to give up.

“I want to see you too…”

What an absurd situation for an artist who can’t see fan art. I shrugged my chin and looked at the newspapers chatting with each other.

In my heart, I want to run to the venue and take a look, but unfortunately I don’t have time.

Right now, we are fighting over where to hold the event, but vacation is less than a month away.

So, it means that you have to aim for the next opportunity, but unless you are in 3rd grade, even this is difficult.

“Write… I’ll have to make an appointment later.”

What an absurd situation for an artist who can’t see fan art.

I put down the newspaper with regrets behind me. Now, more important work remains than the exhibition.

Those are the fan letters piled up on my desk. Among them, the most striking was the pink stationery.

[Cherry Blossom Roseberry]

As I picked up the letter, a familiar name caught my eye. It is the name of a reader who has sent fan letters continuously for over a year.

Even though he never replied to me, seeing his consistent appearance brought a smile to my face. Could this person be a real fan?

‘Come to think of it, I’ll be entering the academy soon.’

In a letter I sent a year ago, he said that he would enter the academy in two years, so he will probably be admitted next year. If you’re lucky, you might be able to meet them.

I kept a warm smile and started reading Cherry’s fan letter.

[Hello, writer! It is a cherry of the Roseberry family. The weather has been getting hotter lately. The author also […]

I can feel it whenever I see it, but her handwriting was beautiful and her writing skills were unusual.

If my writing is bland but sometimes spicy, should I say that cherries have a light and plump taste? Above all, the writing caught my eye because he did not use difficult words like other nobles.

‘A kid like this should write a novel.’

I read Cherry’s fan letter to the end with a light heart.

Thus my vacation seemed short and thin.

[The Kingdom of Teres. Refusal to hold the exhibition. Is that really the reason?]

[The Minerva Empire does not miss the opportunity. I want it to be held in the Michelle estate, which has a high potential for development in the future…]

Until, in less than two days, the high ranks of our empire were trolling.

“What else is this?”

Maybe it was Lina and the Leort brothers and sisters who promoted it.

Of course, it’s trolling from my point of view, and the people of the Empire were busy praising it.

More than anything else, I’m wondering if I’ll be able to see it as the vacation period is coming to an end…

“Isaac! Did you hear the news? They say the academy has also extended the vacation period!”

“… …”

“It’s been my lifelong wish to hear the music of the Lyrus Band… This mom is so happy.”

It seems like my vacation just goes by in a rush.
