I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 426

"By the way, Kato, how is your club's game going? It has been around for several months. Has the trial version been made yet?"

Li Yan asked curiously.

"Yes, in terms of progress, I've probably done more than half of it, and the materials have been done several times. It's also the first time An Yi-kun has made a sandbox game, so many aspects have been revised many times due to lack of experience. I think... …In more than a month, it should be officially uploaded to the free game platform.”

Megumi Kato said with a smile.

When Li Yan listened to Megumi Kato talking about making games, he seemed to enjoy it. Gradually, he smiled and said, "I always feel that your mood has changed a lot, Kato."

"?" Kato was slightly startled.

"I can see that you must be very happy when you are making games with everyone in the club. Originally, I thought I tricked you into joining the club, and I was a little worried that you would be troubled by it. It seems that I was overly worried."

Li Yan looked at her and said happily.

"Because everyone is a good person... I have come into contact with different people, and I have understood some truths in the club. Senior, I didn't know that my life can actually be changed and that I can have different choices. . A peaceful life, or an extraordinary goal, if you use your hands to grasp something, even a memory."

Kato Megumi looked out the window, smiled, and said to Li Yan.

Suddenly, she noticed that there seemed to be two sneaky figures outside the window. When she looked over like this, she immediately hid behind the phone booth.

"..." Kato Kei looked at it and almost laughed out loud, but remained calm and didn't react at all.

At this moment, Li Yan received a message from Sanwa Bunko. Kagurazaka Iris actually said that there was important news to be announced, and asked all contracted writers to go to Sanwa Bunko to discuss a more important matter. ] matter.

Unfortunately, the paragraph "Important and Interesting" has been highlighted. His editor, who has tricked him several times, is taking up his precious Sunday tomorrow, but he is still telling the truth!

"...What's wrong?" Li Yan heard Kato Megumi's surprised voice, immediately put down his phone, raised his head, and asked with some concern.

"It's okay." Kato Megumi shook his head and said with a smile.

"By the way...Senior, I'm calling you out this time because I want to consult you about the game." Megumi Kato took out a small book and pen, with a calm expression and a gentle smile like a spring breeze. Looking at him, it seemed that What to consult.

"Oh, yes, so do you have anything to consult?" Li Yan asked.

"Of course, there are actually many, many things I want to ask, and I may not be able to ask them all in one day. However, I only have one question I want to ask now, which is related to a game project I am writing."

Megumi Kato looked at the notes, then looked at him again, and explained: "Senior, the game story I wrote is about a student who has gone through a lot of ups and downs, betrayal, and loneliness, and then begins to face real challenges behind the RPG plot. My friend, there is nothing wrong with what I wrote before, but I have some disagreements about the plot later on... It seems that I still can't grasp the emotional direction of the protagonist."

Li Yan listened carefully to Kato Megumi's doubts, nodded, and said: "...the direction of the protagonist's mood? This is indeed something that needs attention. Not only novices, but also some veteran authors sometimes forget the original intention of the protagonist. Setting, what you want to ask is which mood state of the protagonist should be used to compose the subsequent RPG plot in the future?"

"Well, that's it. I really can't figure out how to pave the way for the subsequent plot. I don't know what kind of plot development will make it easier to complete this game. Is it the development of an emotional line or... something else? .”

Megumi Kato nodded, her attitude seemed very serious, and she seemed to really want to make the next work of the blessing software club. She thought silently: "Because... there is really no way to capture what I don't know." That’s the story behind it.”

Li Yan fell silent and did not answer Kato Megumi's question for a moment. Instead, he thought carefully about how to help Kato Megumi solve this problem.

"..."

For some unknown reason, Kato Megumi felt a little nervous, but it was also obvious that Li Yan didn't think too much and didn't connect that story with himself. He inexplicably realized that this senior was actually a bit natural.

"I always feel a sense of déjà vu. What's going on? It's just a coincidence..." Li Yan thought to himself. However, he himself still didn’t know that Mr. Cat had already told Kato Megumi everything about him.

Finally, Li Yan answered Kato Megumi’s plot inquiry.

"The protagonist should have just stabilized the ties around him. My personal opinion is that the emotional line should not be over-developed. People who have experienced many ups and downs and loneliness, most of them... can't even cherish it now, so how can they go there? Tap into deeper feelings.”

When Li Yan said these words, what flashed in his mind were the figures of Natsume Takashi, Enma Ai, Renhua, and...

"Such a setting will make players feel more at ease. The situation that has finally settled down should be well protected, be happy for this, and welcome rebirth... the story should not limit it, there will be more in the future There are endless possibilities, when the time comes, let’s shape the next stage of the RPG plot.”

Li Yan thought seriously with eyes while explaining to Kato Megumi.

"..."

Kato Megumi listened quietly at this moment, unable to react for a long time.

This is what he needs...

It seems that he can understand it, but Kato Megumi still feels a little unable to write it down.

…

Sure enough, she is not suitable for writing any plot novels, it is too far-fetched...

In the end, she showed a complicated smile and said: "Just write it in the direction that the senior is thinking... I always feel that I will like the next story even more."

Kato Megumi understood that she understood his affairs, but just a while ago, she had not really understood Li Yan. It turned out that she was still so far away from him.

However, she also believed that the path Li Yan took should be accurate.

…

After the meal, Li Yan took Kato Megumi directly to the final destination, the Ferris wheel at Tokyo Amusement Park.

However, when they arrived at 2:30, when Li Yan and Kato Megumi entered the amusement park and found the Ferris wheel, what greeted them was something unexpected and endless disappointment.

The Ferris wheel in the amusement park was actually under maintenance. The entire Ferris wheel was surrounded by iron horses and stood motionless in front of them.

"What a coincidence..." Li Yan looked at the Ferris wheel with the [Safety First] sign on it and said to Megumi Kato.

"Hehe...yeah, it's a bit unfortunate, there's nothing we can do about it."

Megumi Kato stood on the waiting platform of the amusement park, smiling helplessly. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "But it's enough now. I don't know why, but I feel a little more at ease inside."

"Senior, I should go back too. I'm very happy today. Thank you for taking care of me. Well...Senior, in fact, at the beginning, I always felt that as long as people live according to their own trajectory, the most real thing is. Therefore, I remain transparent every day, hiding myself in a place where others cannot find..."

Kato Megumi stretched out his hand, faced the sun with his palm, smiled, and said in the world of colorful fallen leaves: "But now I always want to catch something, anything is good, I must live truly in front of the seniors, no ?"

"..." Li Yan looked at Kato Megumi and felt that she seemed to have something on her mind.

"I am not a heroine defined by others, nor an NPC who follows a program. I will exist as a bond for seniors. Seniors, my wish is very simple. I hope that you and everyone can be like this. Just live happily."

Kato Megumi understood that the time to go back was almost up. She tried her best to tell Li Yan her blessings and her decision. In the afternoon sunshine, two people who had interfered in each other's destiny, Finally, the journey to Tokyo of this senior and junior came to an end.

"That's right, Kato."

Kato Megumi was about to leave the amusement park and when she was about to go back, Li Yan suddenly stopped her.

"Huh?" Kato Megumi was stunned and turned around to look at him.

"Um... I've always wanted to ask you, do you find it fun when playing games?" Li Yan asked.

Walking through the vast sea of ​​people, Kato Megumi thought for a while and said with a smile: "Yes, it will be very interesting."

…

Not far away, two figures had been following for a long time, but they still couldn't figure out what the two of them had been wandering about all day.
