I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 408

"I see, the short story competition in the night rain does sound like something that novel authors can compete with." Kasumigaoka Shiha suddenly became interested, looked at Fujinomiya Kumi, and said.

At this moment, it seems like returning to the scene in the Ginza Hotel a year ago. Kasumigaoka Shiyu and Li Yan have conducted two writer's competitions in the past year, but both ended in failure. Now this time it seems that it is another time. Rare opportunity.

"Teacher, how about, if possible, let's have a real-time short story competition. It seems to also test the creative ability in the field of writing. I haven't seen the teacher's strength for more than half a year. This time I am playing a good game. Isn’t it interesting?”

Kasumigaoka Shiyu smiled, looked at Li Yan, and asked.

"..." Li Yan was silent for a moment. He always felt that blackout stories were quite common in schools. However, he could see from Kasumigaoka Shiyu's eyes that the other party seemed to be planning to use this to make a difference in the snow. shame.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu was curious about how far his strength had progressed. He also wanted to take a peek at the strength of the third author of Sanhe Bunko.

However, the faces of students such as Fujinomiya Kumi and Miyauchi Renka are also full of expectations, and it is hopeless to write novels under such conditions.

"Okay, I understand, let's just play like this for a while..." Li Yan thought for a while and said to Kasumigaoka Shiyu.

The candles began to flicker continuously, and the originally quiet stormy summer night inadvertently led to another field competition between popular writers from afar...

Chapter 227 Li Yan and the Little God

Shiwa Kasumigaoka is an elite writer at Sanwa Bunko. She is also a best-selling novelist who debuted before Uesugi En and started selling her second popular work. It should be confirmed that this talented high school student writer has great potential to become a professional writer. , it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a writing genius.

At Tokyo Sanwa Bunko Company, some information has already been made public among employees and authors.

Faced with fierce market competition from famous light novels such as Dengeki Bunko, Kadokawa Bunko sneaker, and Fujimi Bunko, elite writers and popular works are undoubtedly the only magic weapon for Sanwa Bunko to survive in Japan's saturated market.

As a result, Senjumura Sei-sensei is undoubtedly the main pillar in the market competition for fantasy novel series; while among hot-blooded combat novels, last year’s dark horse writer Uesugi En is the leader…

As for the romance campus novels that have always been popular, among the hundreds of debut writers in Sanhe Library, only Kasumi Shiko has carved a niche for Sanhe and will not be laughed at as Sanhe has no one.

Li Yan has never underestimated this beautiful girl novelist whose attitude towards him has improved a lot. So far, their results are actually not very different, especially the sales of Xia Shizi's second work and The reviews are a few percent better than "Metronome of Love", and it seems that I have really worked hard to improve my creative talents.

"Then let's decide the winner once again."

In the dimly lit living room, Kasumigaoka Shiyu, slightly hidden in the darkness, looked at him with her full eyes and said.

"Okay." Li Yan nodded, looked at her, and responded.

Fujinomiya Kimi and others who were watching on the side felt that the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange. It should be said that it was too serious. Fujinomiya Kimi just thought that this kind of competition would be fun, but inadvertently, she actually did what she had done before. A promotional trick thought up by Kagurazaka Iris.

However, if the last time was an infighting between peers, this time it is probably the real intention to continue to decide the winner.

The rain was pouring, and there was whistling outside the window. In the living room, rules similar to a story creation competition were quickly stipulated. The rules were quite simple. One after another, the two novelists began to write short stories, which could be serialized. It can also be a single mode, and then after each tells a story, the audience such as Kangna and Renka Miyauchi can vote to determine the winner.

However, in order to make the game fair, Fujinomiya Kumi made a simple lottery box. Write down the type of story that each audience here wants to hear and put it into the box. When Li Yan or Kasumigaoka Shiyu wins the lottery, At some point, you have to quickly come up with a great story based on the type of story you’re writing.

Whispering rustling...

The sound of the rain was a little loud. Just before the story-telling competition started, Sawamura Eiri on the side immediately greeted Li Yan in a low voice, took Li Yan to a corner, showed a cunning smile, and whispered to Li Yan: "Otaku Li, if you arrange the order later, be sure to get to the back and start talking."

"...Why?" Li Yan was slightly stunned and asked in confusion.

"You idiot, thanks to your IQ, you can still pass the University of Tokyo and write popular novels. Don't you know this? According to big data analysis, whether it is comics or the real world, the first creator to present a work is basically They are bound to lose. Especially those who kill with memories, 99% of the time they will lose."

Sawamura Eiri was a little annoyed that iron could not become steel, so she explained in a low voice.

Li Yan looked at Ying Lili helplessly and whispered, "Isn't this the section in your food comics that readers often complain about?"

"Don't get involved in my comic works. In short, don't lose to that guy Kasumi Shiko. Although you beat her twice, this is no reason to underestimate her."

Yinglili stood with her arms crossed and reminded her with a straight face: "Whether it's the basics or the creative ability, he is still a powerful character. If you lose, it will always feel like our team has lost. Don't lose my face too." Got in."

"..."

Li Yan narrowed his eyes and stared helplessly at his creative partner.

It's fine to say it so harshly, but Eiriri has always been inseparable from Kasumigaoka Shiu, and they were also partners in club activities. He always feels that Eiriri's attitude towards Kasumigaoka Shiu can be described as a love-hate relationship. With complex emotions, are they really a mutually disgusting relationship?

"Okay, no matter who my opponent is, I must win."

Li Yan thought about it again and again, finally made up his mind, and said to Ying Lili with firm eyes.

Sawamura Eiri showed a satisfied smile and said encouragingly: "Yeah, yeah! That's the attitude, come on!"

At this time, behind them, Kasumigaoka Shiu, who had been sitting quietly, said: "Then, as Sawamura-san suggested, let me draw lots first and tell the first story."

"Well!!"

When Yinglili heard this, she suddenly looked back in shock, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she stared at Kasumigaoka Shiyu dissatisfiedly, not expecting that her whisper was heard.

"Then, Kasumigaoka-san, let's start the lottery." Fujinomiya Kumi handed the cardboard box to Kasumigaoka Shiu and said with a smile.

"Um."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu reached into the box and took out a piece of paper. Next to the light of the candle, there was the word "Love" written on it.

"No way?!" Ying Lili and Li Yan were both shocked, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that God seemed to be too favoring this Waseda student, and the story type she was best at was drawn in one draw.

"Okay, Kasumigaoka-san is going to tell you the love story. Then, teacher, it's your turn." Fujinomiya Kimi handed the carton to Li Yan and said with a cheerful smile.

"OK."

Li Yan was silent for a moment, then put his hand into the cardboard box, and quickly took out a note.

The ancients said: A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise. Li Yan is not sure that he will be able to draw a battle-type story, but he is sure that he will not be able to draw a [love] type of theme. Therefore, whether it is history, magic, or other genres, Li Yan will I am certain to fight against Xia Shizi.

However, after the paper was spread out, not only Li Yan's eyes suddenly widened in disbelief, but also everyone present was quite surprised.

--【in love】.

"Wait, wait a minute, why are there two notes with the same theme? Isn't this a repetition?!" Li Yan immediately realized something was wrong and immediately raised an objection.

"Well... I'm sorry, there seems to be something wrong. Let me check."

Fujinomiya Kumi opened all the notes in the box and looked at them. The result was also very concerning. As a result, five of the eight audience members, including Kang Na, wrote the word "love", and only Eri Rika and Miyauchi Renka wrote "Battle", while Kangna wrote "Strange".

Only then did Li Yan realize that there was no mention in the rules that repeated types of rules would be excluded. As a result, most of the girls across the street, including an otaku, actually liked to listen to love-type stories.

"Well, when it comes to telling stories, apart from fairy tales, they usually involve stories about ghosts, love, and the like. Stories about ghosts and battles are OK, but it's hard to tell stories about passionate battles. It sounds nice...I don’t want to hear it anymore." Koshigaya Natsumi explained.

"Well, me too. In this weather, it would be better to tell a more beautiful story." Koshigaya Xiaoju nodded and agreed.

"Yes, girls are basically more interested in the topic of love." Ichijo Hotaru said with a smile.

"Nonsense, we obviously know that Tiga's story is more exciting!" Lianhua in the palace stood up and protested.

"..." Taku Koshigaya, who was complained about by Ichijo Hotaru like this, exuded an aura of embarrassment.

After listening to the opinions, Fujinomiya Kimi looked at Li Yan with a slightly embarrassed expression and said with a smile: "So, teacher, most of the audience wants to listen to love-type short stories..."
