My chastity can't be taken lightly by a dog

The editor-in-chief of Dengeki Bunko is a middle-aged man in his 40s wearing glasses. His sparse hair is black and white. impression.

Under the chairmanship of the editor-in-chief, the meeting progressed very quickly - also because there were regular meetings every week, and each editor in charge was very familiar with various affairs.

"...Then, there is the new writer "Shiba Miyuki" under the editor Togakin." Contrary to that prematurely aging appearance, the editor-in-chief's voice is very thick and powerful, which makes people think of A male voice in his prime, "Everyone sitting here, many of you should have heard that this Shiba-sensei wants to release two more light novels at the same time. "

Although many editors in charge have known about this matter through various channels, they are not very clear about the specific content, so the editor-in-chief asked Fu Jian Gangchang to explain it to other editors.

Gosho Togashi, who had been prepared for a long time, brought out a big paper bag from under the table, which contained Ayase's "Magic Forbidden" and the opening outline of "Super Gun".

——Ayase rushed out some of them on Sunday and sent them to Togashi Gosho via email.

Knowing that the final decision will be made by the editor-in-chief during the regular meeting on Monday, Ayase deliberately used Sunday to write the link between the two novels.

While distributing the materials in his hand to other editors and colleagues, Fujian Gangchang introduced the common world view of "Magic Forbidden" and "Super Gun", and the advantages of linkage.

However, based on these contents alone, it is obviously impossible to dispel the doubts of all editors, especially when it comes to the resource tilt of the library platform.

"In any case, it is too risky for a new author to occupy so many resources of the library."

Immediately, an editor questioned this matter, "If it is an author who has been famous for a long time, I wouldn't say anything, but a newcomer wants to release three novels at the same time, not to mention quality issues, just The time to write the manuscript is a big problem, you can’t release a volume of novels a year, can you?”

Regarding this editor's question, many editors nodded in agreement. After all, publishing a novel is not like other things that can be tested first. Once the first volume is released, it is like an arrow that has been opened, and there is no turning back. Yes, even if it is cut in half later, a buffer time of 2-3 volumes needs to be reserved, which will invisibly crowd out the resources of other editors and authors.

Regarding the issue of updating, Togashi Takesho took Ayase's delivery speed of three volumes in almost two months at this time as evidence to refute doubts, and at the same time prayed in his heart that Ayase would not update the three volumes at the same time that he promised himself on Saturday. question.

Ayase's delivery speed is something that is obvious to all in the editorial department. Among the new writers, "Xia Shizi" who debuted at the same time can compete with Ayase in terms of update speed, and even the update speed and quality of the two of them Can catch up with many old authors.

"Everyone knows that updating three books at the same time is different from writing one book." The editor insisted again unconvinced.

"But it can be seen that Mr. Shenxue must have no problem with the update speed. As for the three books, as I said just now, in essence, "Magic Forbidden" and "Super Cannon" are the same book that complement each other. story."

"I think colleagues, let's read the outline of Master Shiba's first volume before discussing it?" At this time, a young female editor in the conference room offered support, and at the same time nodded and smiled at Editor Fujin smiled.

"Editor Machida is right, let's read Shiba-sensei's first draft first." The editor-in-chief stopped the discussion at this moment.

It was Machida Sonoko, the editor of Kasumigaoka Shiwa, who spoke to support Togashi Takesho.

After Kasumigaoka Shiwa left the editorial department that day, she told her editor, Ms. Machida, about Ayase.

Because the relationship with Shiwa is very good, and Shiwa is also the most potential author under him, so Machida Sonoko, who was asked by Shiwa for help, finally found a suitable opportunity to speak.

Now that the editor-in-chief spoke, the other editors stopped talking, and the meeting room fell silent for a while, except for the sound of flipping through papers.

Less than 10 minutes later, the editors who had read the materials in their hands raised their heads one after another, with hesitant expressions on their faces.

Admittedly, just the outline of the first volume does not reveal too much, but some linkage clips and world settings specially sent by Ayase to Togamasao are very brilliant. "Beautiful Girl Writer" and the "two-book linkage" that has not yet appeared in this world are used as gimmicks. If it works properly, it may really spark another wave of craze.

So in the end, all the editors turned their attention to the editor-in-chief who was sitting in the main seat. After all, the editor-in-chief still had to decide on this matter.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, the editor-in-chief pondered for a while before opening his mouth slowly.

Chapter 180 Six What Did the Pangolin Say Before It Died?

Monday, Sunday.

This is also the second Monday Ayase spends after school starts.

In this way, Ayase's second semester has only started two weeks.

"...Why does it feel like half a year has passed for me?" Recalling the events that happened one after another in the short two weeks, Ayase felt tired.

"Huh? What? Half a year?" Kirino, who went upstairs with Ayase, asked sideways.

"It's nothing." Smiling at Kirino, Ayase said emotionally, "It just feels like a lot of things have happened recently, and time has passed like half a year."

"That's it." Kirino nodded knowingly, "I sometimes feel this way when I'm too busy at work. It seems that I did something a long time ago, and then I realized it was only yesterday after someone reminded me." It happened." That's it. "

"This is probably the trouble of the present." Ayase stretched her waist and said with emotion.

"What, it's as if you, Ayase, aren't acting like you are." Kirino sneered, disapproving of Ayase's words.

"It's really not~ You see, I have to go home to write novels every day, so I don't have time to show up." Ayase refuted Kirino's point of view eloquently.

"Okay, okay, let's talk..." Hearing Ayase say that he was going home, Kirino looked like he suddenly remembered something, leaned his head to Ayase with a smile and asked: "Didn't I say that I came to your house before?" A celebration banquet? As a result, I waited for a long time for your call on the weekend, and you, Ayase, didn't even think about it."

Hearing what Kirino said, Ayase remembered that he had indeed promised her to come to his house to celebrate at the school festival.

"Uh, I'm sorry Kirino, I was busy with some things on the weekend, but I forgot..." Ayase immediately put his hands together and smiled apologetically.

"Yes, yes, I understand," Tong Nai nodded, showing an expression of "I understand", and said in a flat tone: "After all, you called that dark guy home on weekends~"

"Cough, cough..." After a dry cough, Ayase looked at Kirino awkwardly and didn't know how to answer, while still thinking about why Kirino knew about this.

"I understand~ Didn't you mean to improve the writing level of the dead cat? It seems that there is another one named Mori Xia? Is it the girl we met in Kanako's class that day?" It seemed that I didn't see Ayase's embarrassing expression Same, Kirino continued to add as if nothing had happened.

Although she couldn't understand why Kirino knew so clearly, Ayase nodded honestly, saying that what Kirino said was right.

"Tsk" Tong Nao clicked his tongue lightly, and said seemingly unintentionally: "That's great, I'm also writing a novel without anyone to guide me."

"..." After hearing Kirino's words, before the embarrassment on Ayase's face became stronger, she could only smile embarrassingly.

"Besides, let that dead cat tell me triumphantly what my friend did, what my friend did was a real failure~" Tong Nai looked up at the top of the stairs and said meaningfully .

"Eh? Ayase, why do you have such a strange expression??" After finishing what he wanted to say, Kirino turned to look at Ayase, and asked in surprise, "Is it because you are not feeling well?"

"I'm sorry! I was wrong!" Knowing that it was not because the black cat told Kirino this matter at this time, Ayase immediately bowed and apologized to Kirino, with a flattering smile on his face.

"Oh my, what are you apologizing for, Ayase?" Seeing Ayase's appearance, Kirino slightly raised the corner of his mouth for a moment, then raised his hand to straighten the hair that fell to his forehead, "I understand. , after all, you are going to write a novel now, so busy~ I heard that you have to write two more novels at the same time?"

"Please be sure to come to my house as a guest after school today!"

Hearing what Ayase said, Kirino chuckled and changed the subject, "Okay, I have an activity in the track and field club today, but I heard that your new book has been rejected? Is it serious?"

"...Didn't you agree to change the subject? ’Although I really want to say this, but looking at Kirino with a calm smile on his face, Ayase thought for a while and replied honestly: “My editor in charge told me that this may be discussed at today’s regular meeting, and the result will be known at noon. Alright."

"That's it." Kirino nodded, and then remembered that Aria and Ayase were living together now, so he asked why the two of them didn't come to school together.

Seeing that Kirino finally stopped worrying about inviting Black Cat to his house on the weekend but did not call her, Ayase breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly explained to her that Aria was on duty today, so Arrived at school one step ahead of Ayase.

"That's it." Tong Nao nodded, and at this time the two also walked to the door of the classroom. As soon as they entered, they saw Aria wiping the top of the blackboard with some difficulty.

With Ariana's height, which can only be found among primary school students, it is a bit difficult to reach the top of the blackboard with her height of just over 1.4 meters. She needs to stand on her toes and stretch her arms to the longest to Barely wiped to the top of the blackboard.

After exchanging glances with Kirino, Ayase immediately took two quick steps and put her schoolbag on her desk. Without saying hello to Ellie, she walked back to the front of the podium and took the rag from Aria.

"Eh? What are you doing?" The rag in his hand was suddenly snatched, and Aria glared at Ayase like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on.

"Okay." Other students may let go of Aria when they see her like this, but Ayase, who has been with her for a while, will not be frightened, but puts her hand on Aria's hair very naturally Shun Shun.

"Hmm." Aria, whose head was touched, let out a "gurgling" sound from her throat, then shook her head, slapped Ayase's hand off, and then raised her head again and said, "Since you don't wipe the blackboard for me If you feel uncomfortable, then I, who is merciful, have no choice but to reluctantly agree."

Already accustomed to Aria's textbook-style arrogance, Ayase just smiled and nodded.

Seeing that Ayase was still laughing, Aria's cheeks flushed a little, then she snorted softly and turned her head away and walked back to her seat.

After wrapping up for Aria, Ayase returned to her seat and greeted Ellie, when Ellie stretched out her hand in a hurry, "Ayase, lend me your English homework for the weekend~ "

"..." After looking at Ellie speechlessly, Ayase still took out the English homework from her school bag and handed it to Ellie, "It's just such a little homework, Ellie, didn't you write it... What did you do on weekends? What have you been doing?"

"Hey," Ellie stuck out her tongue with her head tilted, and then said confidently, "I wrote it! It's just that the writing is wrong, so let's change the answer now~"

After listening to Eri's answer, Ayase had the illusion that "what she said makes sense" for a moment, and finally she could only shake her head and leave her alone.

At noon, Ayase and Aria sat in a nearby fast food restaurant, and before they had time to order food, they received a call from Togashi Gosho.

"Hello? Is this Mr. Shenyuki? The results of the meeting in the morning came out..." After the call was connected, Fujian Gangchang said with joy in his voice: "Bunku agrees in principle that "Super Cannon" and "Magic Forbidden" will be released at the same time." Published, but..."

At the end, Fujian Gangchang's tone suddenly became awkward.

Author's message:

==============

In fact, the broken chapter in the previous chapter was really just an accident. When I saw it, it was six o'clock!As a trustworthy author, I cannot miss the appointment and must update it!

So I didn't have time to type the words of the editor-in-chief, so I posted the last chapter! !

How punctual I am!I was touched by myself! !

============

We still don't know what the editor-in-chief said on Monday morning.

You may not believe me when I say it, but at the beginning I wanted to say only half of what Fujian Gangchang said...

It's just that I thought later that if I didn't say it like this, the grandpas of readers would be unhappy.

Reader's grandfather is not happy, so I... ahem... I am also not happy.

Especially when I think of the end of the month!Dear readers, grandpa, shouldn’t it be time to clean up the things that the Shuke system sends every month?

For example, the free blades that are emptied by the system at the end of the month?hey hey

You can see that I didn't make a fool of myself this time!What a wonderful author, I am even touched!

====================

Alright~ go to bed~ good night~

Chapter 180 Special Requirements for the Electric Shock Library

In principle, Dengeki Bunko agreed with Ayase's idea of ​​publishing "Magic Forbidden" and "Super Gun" at the same time, but there are still some conditions that Ayase must meet in terms of specific implementation.

——After all, Dengeki Library is not a charity, so it is natural to find a way to minimize the risk, otherwise if something happens, the editor-in-chief will be held responsible.

Therefore, although the editor-in-chief finally decided to agree to this whimsical two-book co-publishing plan, at the same time, he put forward additional requirements that are not in normal publishing.

The most important thing is that Ayase must submit the drafts of two volumes of the two new books before the end of October, and the outline of the next two volumes must be submitted by the end of November.

For most light novel authors, this is a very harsh condition.

After all, when many authors only write one book, it is already very good to release three volumes a year. If they can hand in four volumes of manuscripts, it can be called hard work.

If Ayase can submit the manuscript of the new book at the speed required by the editor-in-chief, it is estimated that in the future, the industry—even the readers will praise "Shiba Miyuki" in admiration whenever the pen name "Shiba Miyuki" is mentioned. .

"...So, although the editor-in-chief agreed, but said, "If you can't even write four volumes in two months, don't think about writing three books at the same time." "After recounting the cause and effect to Ayase, Togashi Takesho said in a embarrassed tone: "How about I discuss it with the editor-in-chief again and relax the time?" "

"Hmm, two months?" Ayase frowned and pondered for a while, and said to herself, "It seems to be difficult to do...but it should be about the same."

"Is that so? I also find it difficult. Why don't you wait until the Accelerated World ends, Miyuki-sensei, then... eh?" Gosho Togashi, who was trying to persuade Ayase, suddenly stopped mid-sentence, "...about the same?"

"Well, almost." Although knowing that Gosho Togashi couldn't see his movements, Ayase nodded habitually, which surprised Aria who was sitting opposite her and was reading the menu.

"..." Fu Jian Gangchang on the other side of the phone was obviously silent, and after a while he said: "Yes, I understand... Then I will reply to the editor-in-chief in the afternoon, Mr. Shenxue, please spare some time this week Let's go to the editorial office."

After hanging up the phone with Ayase, Togashi Gosho smiled wryly and shook his head secretly.

Originally, he wanted to persuade Ayase to give up writing three novels at the same time, and the conditions of the editor-in-chief were obviously difficult, but unexpectedly, Ayase agreed without hesitation.

So Fujian Gangchang could only sigh "It's nice to be young", put the half-eaten bento aside, turned the chair back to the computer screen, and created a new report document.

——It is important to know that publishing a novel is not just a matter of the author alone. It can be said that the responsible editor must participate in the whole process, and the administrative process reports within the editorial department are also written by the responsible editor.

"Since young people are so aggressive, I can't hold back! 』Moving his wrist, slightly pulling away the tie that was tightly tied around his neck, Fu Jian Gangchang, who was nearly middle-aged, also showed long-lost passion on his face.

On the other side, seeing Ayase put down the phone, Aria curiously asked what happened.

"It's nothing, it's just that the editor wants to submit the manuscript earlier."

It may be difficult for normal creators to write four volumes in two months, but for Ayase, it just takes a little longer to type—light novels win with the plot after all, Although there are requirements for the writing style, it is not at all to the point where every word of traditional literature must be refined.

Ayase roughly told Aria that she might be busy typing every day. After hearing this, Ayase also looked ignorant. She didn't know much about the light novel industry. She only understood Aya. Ayase will write four volumes in two months. As for whether this time is long or short, I have no idea, but I know that Ayase's time will be relatively tight in these two months.

Ayase didn't explain this either, and after a chuckle, she motioned for Aria to order quickly.

It’s just that Aria, who came to eat donburi for the first time, seems to have fallen into choice phobia—or it’s easy to fall into choice phobia for rice donburi. If it’s a normal order, you can ask for a few loves. There are many dishes to eat, but rice bowls, which only have one dish per person, are the natural enemies of people with difficulty in choosing.

Seeing Aria struggling there, Ayase was not in a hurry, turned around and looked around, and then her eyes lit up.

In her line of sight, she saw Akizuki Airi and her older sister Akizuki Marina pushing open the door of the store and walking in.

Seeing that Airi just turned her head to look at her, Ayase raised her arms and waved, and then saw Airi and her sister Marina whispering, and walked towards this side.

"Ayase, Aria, you are here too." As soon as the lively Ellie came over, she sat next to Ayase and chatted chatteringly.

"Airi~" Marina softly called out to her sister, feeling a little helpless for her rude behavior, and then sat down after a bit of trouble at Ayase's invitation.

"Eri, don't you usually eat bento with your sister Marina?"

Although she felt that the words she said were weird, Ayase still asked.

However, other people obviously didn't have such a strange understanding from Ayase. Ellie covered her stomach and replied: "My sister got up late this morning and didn't have time to cook, let alone the lunch box. I didn't even have breakfast." eat."
