Zongman: Why are your comics full of knives!

Hikaru Nohara is an ordinary office worker.

This day was also the same as usual, dragging my tired body from work.

The only thing that probably made him happy today was that the boss, who was as fat as a pig, did not continue to ask for overtime.

It was rare to have an early shift, and as a single dog, he didn't know how to spend this rare time.

"It's ugly."

In the past, although it was common to leave work after 9 p.m., there were colleagues who worked overtime with me at that time.

You can go to the izakaya together for a small gathering and have a few more drinks,

Vent your dissatisfaction at work.

It's not yet 5 o'clock, and the izakaya is still being prepared.

At this time, the discussion of three teenagers walking together caught his attention.

"It's a teacher! Awesome draw!! "

"It's not in vain, I'll spend money on a copy to collect!"

"It would be nice if the content could be slightly better."

"No drama, no drama, a newcomer who has never heard of it at all, what good things can he write?"

“......"

As the teenagers walked away, the sound gradually disappeared.

"Light novel?"

Hikaru Nohara looked thoughtfully at the distant backs of the teenagers.

Then sighed: "That's nice." "

To be able to discuss these works as wantonly as possible.

Back in his time, even if he was interested in these things,

It can only be watched quietly by one person.

Discussing something like this with friends on the street is only imaginary.

"Speaking of which, I don't have time to read after work."

Thinking of this, Noko walked to the nearby bookstore.

For those three- and four-volume works that he had never heard of, Hikaru Nohara was not interested.

Don't look at the previous work, but directly watch the second work?

What's the point of that.

Therefore, he also went directly to the new works area specially divided by the bookstore.

Soon.

A work caught his eye.

It is not the name of this work, but the delicate picture of the clear color "807" on the cover.

It was a more mature-looking man, wearing a military uniform similar to a German style, giving it a tough feeling.

But the black eyes looked dull and dull, making the originally tough temperament look a little more gloomy.

The female protagonist standing next to the male protagonist is also very outstanding.

Wearing a wide cloak, it resembles a combination of the two images of the European legend of the leprechaun and the mysterious traveler.

The eyes are big and bright, the temperament is weak and strong, and the delicate face is a little nervous and uneasy.

People subconsciously can't help but want to explore what kind of story is between these two people.

"What are you doing in the end times? Are you free? Can it come to the rescue? Now the names of these light novels are getting longer and longer! "

I think about when I first read the light novel,

The name won't be that long!

Despite this emotion, Hikaru Nohara still took an unsealed version for the reader's experience from the heart and put it in his hand.

"A story that takes place in the end times?"

With this in mind, the first page was turned.

The "beast" destroyed mankind.

Young William, who has awakened from hundreds of years of slumber, has become the only remaining human being.

The races that survive in the sky continue to use the strength and technology of human beings, relying on the power of the "holy sword" to fight the goblin soldiers and "beasts" who use the holy sword!

After the battle, the goblin soldiers who tried their best will fall, but the "holy sword" can be used again.

"At the very least, I also hope that I don't have to disappear and I want others to remember." I also want to leave a bond. "

This is a short and brilliant day spent by the doomed fairy girls and the young instructors.

Looking at the introduction on the cover, Hikaru Nohara felt his heart tingling slightly.

"The end..."

If at the beginning it was just because of these two words caused inexplicable sadness,

Then now there is a feeling of being slightly aroused.

I truly feel the heaviness represented by these two words.

It was clear that this word was so illusory and so far away from him.

But for some reason, I always want to experience the beauty of "short and brilliant days".

Turning the pages of the book, a sad atmosphere greets you.

It also made Hikaru Nohara more sure of what kind of ending the book would eventually usher in.

But.

"It is precisely because it is destined to wither that this beauty before withering will make people miss it so much, and they want to reach out and grab it desperately!"

After reading more than 10 pages, Hikaru Nohara was sure that this was the story he wanted to see.

Close the book, put it back on the shelf, and pull out the brand new one with the packaging intact again.

Come to the counter.

"Hello, checkout."

For him, who has been working for a long time, the cost of a few hundred yen is not worth mentioning.

When I was young, I might have struggled for a long time, but not now.

Holding the book in his hand, Hikaru Nohara felt like he had returned to the happiest time of his youth.

Now he just wants to go home quickly and finish reading this work.

In the evening, following the perspective of the protagonist "William", I saw the human beings who were destroyed by the "beast",

The world that would exist hundreds of years from now.

The tribes who have completely lost their earth can only live on islands floating in the sky, and even if this is the case, it does not mean that they are completely safe.

Because the "beasts" on the earth still threaten them on the island at all times.

In addition, various other strange races, "salvage teams" who go to the earth to search for the remains of civilization, goblins who use holy swords to fight "beasts"...

All these things perfectly satisfied his fantasy of this world, so that he couldn't help but marvel at it.

At the same time, what made Hikaru Nohara even more emotional was the description of William in the text.

At a time when civilization and races have been exterminated, it should be extremely desperate, but he who is still alive can really feel everything in front of him, they are so alive and bright,

This kind of confrontational conflict makes people feel an irrepressible sadness.

He is an outsider, an outsider without a past.

Everything here has nothing to do with him, no one he loves, nothing that makes him fall in love with, not even memories of his homeland.

The experience of those battles has shaped William's calm thinking now,

This calmness is like a volcano imprisoned by the deep sea, and the anger and sadness in the heart have nowhere to vent, allowing readers to have a deeper resonance with the work, and brewing irrepressible pain in the heart!

"What a good work!"

Hikaru Nohara sighed.

Although the story itself feels extremely sad, the content depicted deeply attracts him!

"Let's pay a little attention to the follow-up to this work."

Although the work is very busy, you can't lose this kind of small fun!

Otherwise, isn't life just pain?

If the end really comes, it will only be more painful because you did not take advantage of such a good time now to feel the beauty of life, right?

It is also because the sales of the work itself are not low,

So by this time, there was already a lot of discussion on the Internet.

"First of all, I have to apologize to the teacher, I'm sorry!

I paid attention to the work "Three Questions of Doom" because my favorite cartoonist Warrior of Love and Hope knew that as the other party's first work to participate in illustration work, I bought this book completely with the mentality of supporting the teacher at first.

There is no expectation for a teacher who does not have any past records and is still a newcomer!

But after reading this work, I understood my stupidity.

If it is not a very good work, with his current fame, why do such a thing?

I hope that those fans who bought this work with the same mentality as me must take the time to read it!

This is an excellent work from any point of view!

With the teacher's illustrations, it is even more powerful! "

"A great work indeed! Thanks to the recommendation of the Love Warrior teacher, I did not miss such a good masterpiece! "

"Perhaps this is the charm of words, knowing that the final ending will inevitably be like the face code that has become a ghost, only the ending of disappearance, but people can't help but want to read it and feel the last beauty before the real end comes!"

"It is clear that the story of the first volume has not yet fully unfolded, and wordless sadness is always around my heart."

"I don't know how to comment, but the author's writing skills are too strong, and it hurts me all the time."

"To be honest, the moment I saw this long title, I had the feeling: put on the skin of doom, put on a gorgeous youth comedy - like this.

But after reading it, the sadness that there is nowhere to talk about makes me understand that this is a tragedy that will not have any hope! (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

Highly recommended to every reader who likes this style!! "

"Is it possible that the Warrior Teacher of Love is willing to illustrate this work because the story is a tragedy from the beginning?"

"This possibility is not excluded! Of course, I think there is also a reason why this work is good enough!! "

"For me who loves tragedy, it's an exhilarating experience!"

"Damn, after reading your comments, I suddenly couldn't help but be afraid, the end of "Magic Circle" and "Flower Name" made me cry enough, and here comes such a one, is it really not going to give people a way to live!?"

"If you haven't died, how can there be a knife, let it go!"

“..."

Two days a day:

As more and more discussions about the follow-up plot of "Three Questions of Doom" emerge in various forums and chat groups, as well as comments with feelings.

It is also that more and more people are curious about this work!

Even those readers who like comedy, scrap, harem works can't help but buy a copy.

I want to see what magic this work really has.

Then, they felt the deep malice of "Three Questions of Doom" in pain and joy!

As we all know, readers who like comedy, scraps, harems, these types of readers, do not necessarily dislike tragedy.

Perhaps it's just that the tragedy that attracted them didn't appear.

And "Three Questions of Doom" has made many people fall in love with this feeling.

The kind of oppressive pain with nowhere to vent satisfies the unique "loneliness" psychology that is still in the second middle school period.

In the blink of an eye, it was already weeks that had passed.

"Nangong... Teacher Shadow, I always feel strange, or I will directly call Teacher Shadow, forget it? "

Listening to the voice of Machida Yuanko on the other end of the phone, Nangong Mu said indifferently: "It's good if you are happy..."

"Shadow teacher, the sales of "Three Questions of Doom" in the first week are out!"

Machida Kenko's voice had an unconcealable joy.

Nangong Mu smiled and did not speak.

There are always people who can't help but say first, why is he in a hurry?

Not waiting for the expected reaction, Machida Enko couldn't help but pout.

"It's really like Xiao Yinsha said, teacher, when you face sales, you never fluctuate a little."

"It's like having no interest in fees."

"Even if I don't know the sales volume, don't delay me from getting the due manuscript, right?"

"That's what I said."

Machida Enko shook her head, wanting to see the other party jump up with excitement like those little moe xin, but there was no hope.

"The first week of sales of "Three Questions of Doom" was 2.7w!"

According to 600 yen a volume, 10% royalty, there is also 1.62 million yen!

Although this number is not a small gap compared to the sales of manga, it is not bad!

What's more, this is the first week.

However, this number is a bit lower than Nangong Mu's expectations.

You know, even the first volume of "Magic Circle" has more than 60,000 copies.

After that, the second volume almost exceeded 50,000 copies on the first day!

In comparison, 2.7W is too low.

"This sales should not be too low, right?"

“..."

Machida was silent.

This is in Versailles, right?

This is in Versailles, right!?

27,000 copies in the first week!

It can hit 100,000 copies in a single month!!

A single book will surely reach an amazing result of 500,000 copies!!

Is it such a hit, is it too low in this guy's mouth?

If it is known by other authors, it will definitely be beaten by the other party through gritted teeth, right!?

Although I want to complain fiercely, considering that the other party is a new trump card in the comic book section,

The first week of sales of those manga works released, although she, the editor-in-chief in charge of the light novel section, is not too clear,

But occasionally I have heard it mentioned by Jino Tang.

In contrast, this number is really a bit crotch-pulling.

But manga and light novels are different.

The group of the anime party can be said to be the broadest, while the group of the light novel party is the narrowest.

Machida Enko decided to explain a little: "Shadow-sensei, that's not what I said. "

"This first week data, placed on the light novel, is already a blockbuster work!"

"It will definitely sell 500,000 volumes of super hot works!"

"It belongs to the category that even if the first-line authors in the industry know this first-day sales, they can't help but envy!"

Is it so powerful?

Nangong Mu nodded and said with a smile: "It's good that you didn't embarrass the Machida editor." "

Lose face?

Inexistent!

Those guys will only go crazy with envy!

Coupled with the fact that this work can be released so quickly, she has made a lot of efforts, and she will definitely get a huge bonus this time!

"It's all on holiday, where to travel~"

Although the question of when to take the holidays is a false proposition, this does not prevent him from imagining.

"Editor, Machida, since the first volume has already been released, shouldn't the planning for the second volume also be mentioned?" 4.7

“！！"

What kind of immortal author is this!

She didn't need to blow it, and actually took the initiative to mention the second volume!

I'm a little jealous of that guy!

Although she also wanted to put the second volume on the project quickly, but the first volume has only been released for a week, and it is too inappropriate to say the second volume now!

Machida Enko politely spoke: "Shadow teacher, don't worry. "

"The second volume can be done slowly, 5 months, 6 months, readers will not have an opinion."

"Machida editor, you don't have to be so polite with me."

Nangong Mu said a little helplessly: "You also know that this work is for my new comic, right?" "

"For such a long time, I don't know if the reader has an opinion, but I will have an opinion."

"What do you mean?"

Is this genius?

There is no way to stop such a frenzy for release!!

No wonder two works can be completed in just half a year.

Such a work attitude really deserves to be successful!

Machida Yuanko spoke carefully: "What does Shadow-sensei mean?" "

"Let's release the second volume next month."

“？？"

This man is old, and his ears are his back.

I can actually listen to it next month.

The first volume taken out on October 1st, now October 18th, to reserve 10 days of preparation,

That is to say, the day after tomorrow at the latest will come up with the final draft of the second volume, how is it possible ...

"Actually, as early as September, I wrote the story of the second volume, and now the third volume is almost finished, I calculated that next month's release is completely timely!"

"The only thing you need is how hard you have to work to edit Machida."

So...

Wasn't I hallucinating just now?

This kid came straight to the real !?

Machida Enko stiffened and spoke: "Shadow teacher, won't a month be too fast?" "

Besides, it was only released on the 11th, and the second volume was released on November 1, which is only more than 20 days later! .
