I Am a Master of Light Novels in Japan

In this high-end hotel in Shibuya, there is an endless stream of invited cartoonists, and there are many first-line retired comics authors in the Japanese industry. This hotel has attracted more and more attention from the society, but among the many dazzling eyes, It happened that another writer of light novels became the focus of the banquet.

As a result, Li Yan...no, almost all Uesugiyan passed by attracted a lot of attention. In fact, there is not much difference in the positioning of cartoonists and light novel writers, but the two-dimensional story expression methods of the two are not quite the same. . The twelve episodes of the third season of the animation are confirmed, the live-action movie is confirmed, the Sanhe Bunku novel awards, and even the sales and fame are rumored to be nominated for [this light novel is really powerful], and the first book can have such a result , I have to make colleagues of similar nature care about it, after all, the experience of growing up is a legend.

At this moment, Li Yan was very unaccustomed to many eyes. He wanted to find someone he knew at the banquet, but this vast and gorgeous banquet scene did not find a familiar figure for a while.

"... Hasn't Zhenbai come over yet?" Li Yan looked at it again, but he didn't see Shiina's figure, and he was a little concerned.

In the early morning, he went to see Shiina Shiro, but this girl went out very early. She had to go to school. Shibuya district is relatively close to Suimeifu high school. He still I thought she would arrive earlier.

"Ah, teacher Uesugi?" Suddenly, a familiar girl's voice came from behind Li Yan, causing Li Yan to look back for a moment.

As a result, in this cartoonist’s banquet, I met Irf Yamada, who hadn’t seen him for a long time, the popular young girl writer who wrote "Burning Dark Goblin". The two met here, and I have to say yes. Fate.

"Huh? Mr. Yamada, why are you here?!" Li Yan asked in astonishment.

"Ah, it's really you. Looking at you from behind, you feel like you are inseparable, the legendary Mr. Ghost." Yi Erfu Yamada said to Li Yan with a hearty smile.

"You ask me why I am here, but I want to ask why you participated in this occasion... Maybe we are here for a reason." Yielf Yamada looked around and replied.

"...It's true, who are you here on behalf of?" Li Yan asked.

"Huh, Izumi Masamune’s sister, the ergonomic teacher who used to broadcast the painting process for your novel characters, do you still remember her? This banquet also invited excellent illustrators over to participate, but Izumi’s sister was totally absent. I will go one step further."

Yamada Ilfu sighed slightly and said to Li Yan.

"It turned out to be the authentic sister..."

Li Yan squinted and thought of the petite girl with silver-gray hair, who was also the first person in his life to see his body.

"I haven’t seen each other for a while, Mr. Uesugi. I have done a good job in writing recently. I won the Sanhe Library award. I told you a long time ago that your grades are not only that. You didn’t believe it at the time. People envy and hate, congratulations."

Elf Yamada supported her, behaving very generously, and said with an admiring smile.

"...Thank you, but you have already congratulated me on the line. I am really grateful for your care." Li Yan said with a smile.

"Hmph, don’t say it too early. Although I agree with your efforts, the title of the world's No. 1 light novelist must still fall on me. I have no plans to lose to you yet, now I am The progress of the next volume is not ready yet. When it is published, it will definitely defeat your current grades."

Elf Yamada stretched out his hand, shook a finger, smiled triumphantly, and said to Li Yan in a strong tone.

Although he said that, when Li Yan heard the sentence [not prepared yet], the translated meaning was [not interested in writing yet], so what a transcendence method like this.

However, Elf Yamada looked at the gazes of the cartoonists around him, his face was a little concerned, and he whispered: "However, your reputation is really great lately. Everyone in the comics industry has already made your presence known. I came in. I have always found that many people are watching you, and you are walking around on your own. Why don't you find a seat and sit down to be more comfortable."

"What kind of fame? I still don't quite understand why everyone is looking at me." Li Yan looked at Yi Erfu Yamada with some puzzlement, and asked.

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

After hearing Li Yan's words, Yamada Ilfu showed a look of consternation, and then said dissatisfiedly: "What are you doing? Did you say that on purpose, or do you really don't know? You, as a light novelist, should Investigate your own popularity. After your seventh volume was released in June, not only the number of fanarts on the Pixiv website, the number of fanarts, but also the discussion on the forum, even my homepage is all about you. The discussion of the work has exploded in popularity, especially the Pixiv website, which is a must-see for comic lovers. Your work has always dominated the screen. Of course, the comics industry will pay much attention to you."

"……Is that so?"

Li Yanmao suddenly started and understood the reason why he was being spotted here. He has always been only concerned about his book sales. After all, sales are the last word of strength. As a result, he never thought that the outside world would discuss him and his works. To this point.

Maybe, his seventh volume can really be rated above S in the editing system.

The sudden fame is not only a kind of reputation, but also a kind of trouble. Originally, he has a black history besieged by readers. I really don't know how his life will develop next.

"Ms. Yamada, can you come here for a while?"

Suddenly, a female staff member called Yi Erfu Yamada in the crowd, and Yi Erfu Yamada was taken aback for a moment. After looking at it, she found that it was someone from her company, her face was a little reluctant, and she whispered. Said: "Uh, I always feel that I was asked to meet some illustrators or cartoonists. I actually don't like this kind of social occasion at all."

"After all, it's work. Go ahead first, and we'll talk later." Li Yan looked at Ilfu Yamada who was reluctant to go there and persuaded.

"Oh, okay, I'll pass, then see you later." Yamada Ilfu smiled, and then turned and walked over.

Li Yan watched Yi Erfu Yamada walk into the circle of a group of cartoonists and companies. Just as his gaze swept away, he discovered that the middle school girl he met on the road seemed to be on the outside of the banquet. , Holding a basic comic book in his hand, judging from Zhang Wang's expression, it seems that asking for an autograph is not going well.

"What's the matter, haven't you asked for a signature yet?" Li Yan walked out of the venue, looked at her and asked.

"Eh...Ah, Uesugi-senpai...no, Uesugi-sensei! I, I... As you can see, none of them are expected to arrive, although it is expected." This female middle school student looked again When he got to Li Yan, he suddenly became nervous, and after hesitating for a while, he gave a bitter smile and admitted it.

As soon as Li Yan came out, he immediately felt the eyes from all directions converge again. He coughed a few times, not daring to provoke the surroundings.

"...No way, let me go inside and ask for an autograph. Biqigu, you give me your comic book first."

Li Yan looked inside the banquet, then looked at her again and said.

"Eh, is it really, really okay?!" Biqigu's cheeks flushed with excitement, opened his mouth slightly, and asked.

"Of course, after all, you came from a far away place, and it would be a shame to return empty-handed," Li Yan said.

"Then, I beg you, Uesugi-sensei, I have handed over this backpack to you. There are about seven books. One of them can sign up. I am 100% satisfied. It can be described as a windfall, so hard. Oh." Biqigu was a little flattered, showing a happy smile while nervous, and handing her backpack to Li Yan, said.

"Well, which one?" Li Yan asked.

"This is a secret, it should be possible to sign in, seniors, don't care about it, hehe." Biqigu said with a smile.

After Li Yan took the schoolbag and said a few words to Biqigu, he didn't dare to neglect at all, with a gray face, and hurriedly returned home under pressure. Standing in this corridor, he has always felt an inexplicable pressure of public opinion, and his eyes are locked on him too much. If it is not late now, the fan who got the signature left this corridor. This middle school student It was closer to the entrance of the venue, otherwise he wouldn't dare to come out again.

※※※

In the banquet on the third floor, Li Yan quickly found four of the cartoonists after searching and inquiring. The other party seemed to be flattered when asked for an autograph by Uesugiyan, and he also politely asked Li. Yan asked for an autograph, which was regarded as a polite way of communication as a writer.

As a result, when I was looking for the books in the backpack, I found that there was a book that was not a comic at all, but the seventh volume of the library novel he published at the beginning of the month. Although I read it hastily before, I didn’t expect that one from the middle school. Sheng, while reading comics, is also a fan of his books.

"...No wonder that I should be signed in. It turned out to be my signature."

Li Yan looked at this beautifully-covered novel with some surprise. After he was silent for a while, he wrote his name in the catalog.

Suddenly, at this time, another guest greeted at the door of the venue, but it seemed to be late, but when she walked in, the unique breath made the fans in the venue and outside couldn’t help but stop. Watch.

A lock of beautiful blond hair flying slightly, slender willow eyebrows, beautiful nose, snow-white jade cheeks slightly flushed, and a pair of eyes silently and quietly looking at the venue, seeming to see everything, and it seems that there is nothing Characters and objects can be stopped by her for a moment.

I don’t know why, she gave people a very mysterious, mouthless feeling, too beautiful. She even had an invitation letter in her hand. After handing it to the staff, she saw Li Yan, and then she turned her attention. Put it on his body.

"Holmes..."

Shiina Zhenbai said Li Yan's name softly, as if it were the whispers of an elf.

At the banquet, Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at her, and asked, "Shiina, you are finally here... why are you so late?"

"...Fell asleep in the bus." Shiina Masayoshi wiped his eyes with his hand, and said quietly and tiredly.

Li Yan looked at her in surprise and reminded: "You can't sleep on the bus, especially if you can't sleep without anyone else, you know?"

"Yeah, good." Shiina nodded and said.

"By the way, here is your comic book. Your fan asked me to sign it with you. Please sign it." Li Yan handed the single-page comic called "Devil Detective Agency" to Shiina Masaki.
