How can I let go of the matter of saving my stepsister?

But she didn't give up completely, she was just willing to wait.

Being cherished like this, Sato Yu felt even more heartbroken.

After all, he had nothing to give to Miki Sugino, who was still willing to support him even after everything was explained to her.

All he could give was "thank you".

"I like Sato."

"!"

The heavy topic should have come to an end here, but suddenly, Sugino Miki plucked up the courage and poured out her confession smoothly.

He spoke neither solemnly nor fearfully, but cheerfully, just like the relief he felt when walking away from a railway crossing.

There is no need to hide or pray for a response, she just needs to talk and keep moving forward with this love.

"I will wait. I will never give up. Because you love me so much, Sato, I will love you even more."

Chuckling~ The fear and depression that had been accumulating in her heart disappeared in an instant, and her body suddenly felt relaxed. Her legs dangled on the bench, and Sugino Miki laughed happily, her laughter as clear as a silver bell.

I initially liked Sato Yu because he took on the task of drawing the pictures alone when she was most desperate and felt that she had let down the hard work of everyone in the production team, and rescued her from the abyss of despair and self-blame.

But what really made her fall in love with Sato Yu and like him more and more was his love for her younger sister, Qiong.

I want to be a shameful thief and get a small, tiny piece of favor from Qiong.

because--

Even if you only get a small portion, it is a happiness that others can hardly imagine.

Volume 113: Chapter Chapter . Receive the reward again!

Adults can smoke and drink at the age of 20, but they can take a driver's license test at the age of 18.

She could drive in her previous life and has a driver's license in this life. In the end, it was Sato Yu who took Sugino Miki, who had sprained her foot, to the clinic to treat her sprain and then sent her back home.

Then I drove back home. After all this busyness, it was already 11:30 in the evening.

"Azure Blue" is about to start... Today is not Saturday, "Azure Blue" is not on, it is finally time for him to go to bed and sleep.

But it seemed as if this overworked young man was forced to continue working hard. When he lay on the pillow to calm down the inner turmoil and sadness brought about by Sugino Miki's words today, and was ready to use sleep to reduce his inner self-blame, a crisp sound of "ding" coming from the deepest part of his mind completely dispelled his sleepiness.

The settlement system finally completed its long settlement process and gave Sato Yu the second-stage task reward that he had been looking forward to.

Be sure to include a reward that is beneficial to Qiong's condition!

There were three rewards last time, but only two this time. After staring at the system interface that only he could see and praying for a long time, Sato You clicked on the first one.

[Time of Stagnation]

This is the name of the reward. There is no subsequent text introduction, and no changes have occurred to it. Sato You looked at the reward from left to right but couldn't figure out what it was. He was full of confusion.

"What on earth is this..."

As he was mumbling to himself in confusion, the phone rang. Just like when he received the first stage reward, the caller was nurse Chiharu Oeda!

With anticipation in his heart, Sato Yu quickly answered the phone, and what came from the other end was Chiharu Oden's overjoyed voice.

"Sato! Have you watched the news? I've sent you the link!

Just now! Twenty minutes ago, the European medical community announced a huge breakthrough in the field of cancer prevention. An anti-cancer drug that doctors in this village have been paying close attention to has finally passed the trial stage and has been announced to be officially used in clinical practice!

Although it is still an inhibitory drug and cannot completely eradicate the tumor, Dr. Honmura said that if this drug can be used continuously, it will greatly delay the deterioration of Qiong's symptoms and buy her another three to five years, or even longer..."

On the phone, Oden Chiharu's overjoyed explanation continued, while Sato Yuu listened quietly with a leisurely smile on his face.

The sudden appearance of a super anti-cancer drug that can inhibit the spread of cancer cells and buy three to five years of life for some specific cancer patients, and the news was conveyed to him at this moment. Needless to say, this must be the power of the system coming into play again.

It turned out that the system, which had been displaying the settlement time, was quietly and "smallly" promoting the progress of cancer medical care in a place that he could not see or reach at all.

Being able to inhibit the spread of cancer cells in Qiong's brain and the growth of the tumor means that the pain and suffering that Qiong will suffer in the future may be greatly alleviated, and he may no longer suffer from dizziness, vomit blood, or lose his sense of taste.

It also means that she can have fewer operations and surgeries, her head will no longer be constantly entangled in bandages, she can grow her hair long, wear wigs, and wear hats, she can love beauty again and look beautiful in front of him.

Too much, too much.

[Time of Stagnation], this reward helped Qiong so much that Sato Yu was a little flattered.

It's only the second stage and he has been provided with such a good reward, which allows his Qiong to suffer less pain. Sato Yu doesn't even dare to imagine what the rewards will be in the future.

Ha, of course he had already imagined it. That was to completely cure his Qiong, to see Qiong live normally, freely and happily in this world, and to see how beautiful she would be when she grew up.

"Thank you, my Tong!"

He talked happily with Oden Chiharu for a long time, and then smiled foolishly for a long time after hanging up the phone. Finally, facing an empty place, perhaps not where the system was, Sato Yu spoke softly and devoutly to express his gratitude.

Things are different now. At first, he complained that the system was not powerful enough and was a relatively useless cat guest system. But now, it is fortunate that the system is illusory and has no entity, otherwise Sato Yuma would have to hug it and kiss it hard to express his inner gratitude.

"hu~hu~"

Exhale, and exhale again, letting out all the depression in your heart!

"So, next..."

He rolled around on the bed, jumped up and down barefoot, and spent a long time calming down. After calming down, Sato You called out the system interface again to receive another task reward that had not been opened yet.

The moment he opened it, a large amount of memories flooded into his mind, making Sato Yu lose consciousness.

"Well......"

Taking in a huge amount of memories in an instant made him mentally exhausted. Finally, after digesting everything, Sato Yu let out a muffled groan.

As he expected, the second reward was skills related to painting.

Daily animation drawing skills, fast drawing buff, and supervisory ability expansion. After these three items, the system provides him with another extended DLC - battle scene drawing skills.

To be precise, more specifically, it is the technique of painting character battle scenes.

There are not too many animation drawing techniques such as mecha and circus. This time, Sato Yu received very simple character battle drawing skills and exaggerated explosion scene drawing skills.

Compared to daily life paintings, which strive to make characters cute and beautiful and are mostly dedicated to showing their beauty in static moments, fighting scenes are more focused on showing the beauty of dynamic moments when the characters' body shapes change during high-speed movement.

The two painting techniques have something in common, but they go their separate ways when it comes to more advanced areas.

There are very few original artists who are good at both daily life and action scenes. Even among veteran original artists with decades of experience, few can master both skills at the same time.

But now, it is outrageous that at the age of twenty, Sato Yu already has them all and has reached the pinnacle.

"Could it be that I am really a superman?"

Pinching his chin, Sato You thought seriously and told a joke very seriously.

After amusing himself in this way, he soon returned to his normal state.

Having the ability to draw action scenes is a great thing, but this ability also disrupted his plans.

He was originally planning to produce the famous Qingri work "My Teen Romantic Comedy Is Wrong", but now, he has a better choice.

With "Azure Blue" and "5 Centimeters per Second", he has basically absorbed the audience of urban animations in modern settings, without a special world view or superpowers. Continuing to produce animations of the same type will only deepen the impression of his name Sato Yu in the minds of these audiences.

Compared to this relatively slow way of increasing fame, it is indeed more efficient to open up new areas and reap the fame that fans of fantasy world works can bring to him.

Moreover, the sudden shift from a youth love story to a superpower fight and a battle in another world can bring a huge sense of contrast to the audience and is more conducive to the completion of phased tasks.

In fact, for his second supervisory work, Sato Yuu's best choice was originally fantasy animation, but he put it on hold because he lacked the ability and confidence to contribute highly expressive fighting scenes.

But now, he has Pava!

He is bound to take the animation industry by storm!

Volume 114: Chapter Chapter . It’s decided to be you!

Excited, Sato You didn't even want to sleep. He got up and started planning his future.

He didn't even have time to put on his slippers. He ran barefoot to the cabinet to get out a pen and paper, then leaned over the desk to think carefully.

If you have the ability to do it, there is no reason not to do it. The next one will definitely be a fantasy-type exciting battle animation.

This makes it completely certain that he can no longer stay at the Pandia headquarters with its weak staff to continue producing animations. Although he feels very sorry for Nanae Mochizuki and it will inevitably hurt her, this is the only way.

Treat people as useful tools, accept the help they offer, and kick them away after the most difficult times...

Mochizuki Nanae must be very angry. The copyright of "5 Centimeters per Second" that he gave her is not enough to heal the pain of betrayal. It is far from enough.

But, we must never look back.

Shaking his head to dispel his boredom, Sato Yu wrote down the names of several large animation companies on a piece of paper.

Shueisha, Madhouse, UFO, Bones, J.Cstaff, SHAFT, A-1 Pictures, Sunrise...

After much consideration, it was found that there were not many animation companies in the industry that had the ability to produce high-quality fantasy battle animations. On paper, Sato Yu ultimately did not list Kyoto Animation among the candidates.

It's not that they don't have the ability. It's mainly because Kyoto Animation has sufficient talent reserves and a complete production chain. They have always used internal talents to supervise work. It is almost impossible for an outsider like Sato Yu to squeeze in.

As for the remaining companies, J.Cstaff and A-1 Pictures are no longer glorious, and Sunrise prefers mechas, which is beyond Sato Yu's ability.

Then Shueisha is working on "XX Academy", which was once very popular in the past but due to some reasons, "something has happened. Want to ask why? Because I came too late", and UFO recently announced that "Sword Sanctuary" will be broadcast in winter.

This was the thing that once made Sato Yu hesitate whether to take over the system to save Qiong.

The market began to prosper, the platform has been built, excellent works have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, but time waits for no one. As time goes by, the advantages he possesses from the wisdom of another world will gradually disappear, or even be annihilated.

It's not "Sword Art Online" but "Sword Sanctuary", and the production company has also been subtly changed from A-1 Pictures to UFO Company, but Sato Yu has already seen the trailer, and it is indeed the idea of ​​the previous "Sword Art Online" that cannot log out of the online game.

There seem to be some differences in the specific details, and the level of the story may be lower than the previous life?

But no matter what, the road to making "Sword Art Online" has been completely blocked.

If he wanted to make a fantasy battle animation, Sato Yu actually considered it as his first option, but now all he can say is it's a pity.

Then, the rest...

"Are they really the two companies, Madhouse and Bones?"

The former is all-round, while the latter is specialized. Both companies are very strong in producing combat animations, and their problems are also quite obvious.

Emmmm, it’s Sato Yu’s own problem.

I'm still too inexperienced, and I don't have any experience in producing battle animations. I'm going to these two companies where many big artists gather to seek a supervisory position...

Sato Yu could even imagine himself being punched left and right, getting bruised and beaten out of the company building.

But no matter how dangerous it is, you have to try it.

I have almost finished drawing the LIVE scene for "The Idolmaster". I will try my luck after I finish it.

In this way, the next company to join has been selected, and it is time to move on to the most important stage of selecting the work...

"One Punch Man"!

The first moment when the inspiration came to Sato Yuu, the first thing he thought of was this work.

A funny daily life and passionate battle story written by ONE teacher in the previous life.

Wanting to be a hero, he quickly became stronger and bald on his way to becoming a hero, but he was the strongest but a mere C-rank hero...

It combines comedy, passion, depth and extremely gorgeous fighting scenes, and when Sato Yu mentions this animation, some memories of the on-site painting emerge in his mind.

But it was precisely the memory of painting that held Sato Yu back.

It was too ornate, too complex, and there were too many battle scenes to draw.

Even with the [Fast Drawing] buff, one person can draw as fast as three to four top combat animation drawing masters. However, it is too difficult to successfully file the animation, get a supervisory position, and complete it with high quality.

In the previous life, the producer of "One Punch Man" was only an animation company, which was the name of Madhouse, but after learning some of the behind-the-scenes stories of the animation, Sato Yu knew——

It is not just an animation company, it is an animation that was completed through countless favors and the invitation of most of the industry's strong battle-themed painting masters to form a national team. It is almost impossible to successfully replicate an animation.

Sato Yu doesn't mind taking on the favor of inviting a senior painter to paint. At worst, he can repay the favor by painting more complex and time-consuming scenes in the future.

What Sato Yu was really afraid of was that he was not qualified to carry it.

Even after completing "Azure Blue", he was still a rookie, a young boy. How could he have the face to ask those senior painters for help?

And if Madhouse Animation Company is willing to hire him, with so many big names gathered together, how can he fight for the position of animation supervisor?

Making One Punch Man was pretty much a dead end.

Cross it out! Next up is…

"Demon Slayer"?

The painting is good, but the story is a bit flat, and after all, it needs a fan base and the support of the original comics to make it work. Don't consider it and cross it out.
