I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 696

However, he still didn't understand. If she wanted to get high-quality painters who were in short supply, why was Teacher Kasumi Shiko suddenly called over by her?

Akane Hongsaka had the right to speak at the scene. For a while, Li Yan could not escape from her control. Her eyes were once again aimed at Eiri, the talent that was urgently needed in various projects at the moment, and asked: "How about it, Kashiwagi?" Teacher, and Teacher Kasumi Shiko, do you want to join my plan?"

Yinglili was a little annoyed and said: "I've already said it, don't talk to yourself. I still have a job as an illustrator and a blessing software club. I can't leave either side..."

"I know, I waited until the novel was finished before inviting you. I didn't consider directly snatching my partner from Mr. Uesugi. Only after you become stronger can you keep up with Mr. Uesugi's progress. As for that club , wouldn’t it be better if you quit? No one in the club can keep up with your pace, and it will only be a waste of your talents..."

Akane Kurisaka looked at them with a matter-of-fact expression and said.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu knew the situation very well and remained silent. But Yinglili stood up again and again and shouted: "There is no such thing!"

Akane Kurisaka was completely unmoved and said with a smile: "Really, but you know best in your heart that you are wasting your time in a place like that. Isn't your manga called "Soul Eater"? Sales seem to be getting more and more It's low. It's not easy to go from doujinshi to orthodox, right? Except for the explosive clothes, beauties, and clever settings, it seems that there is no end now. The characters in your paintings have begun to go berserk, so that Aoyama's comic sales are only a little bit behind Just cover it up... The world of creators is very cruel, and readers do not sell you any favors. Once the painting is not good, it will fall directly from the altar to the trash can in just an instant..."

Li Yan and Kasumigaoka Shiyu fell silent and looked at Yinglili again, Yinglili's expression darkened.

"Only Kasumi Shiko in the club can reluctantly follow your footsteps. Everyone else is a burden. Teacher Kasumi Shiko can be your support and help you tap your potential. She is also a good writer, huh~~ If you don’t participate, there’s actually no need for me to ask Teacher Xia Shizi to come over.”

Akane Hongsaka smiled faintly and said.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu clenched her fists. Everyone present understood this meaning. It seemed that the reason for wooing her was just to stimulate Eiri's potential. This was undoubtedly a great irony for her...

Sawamura Eiri saw it, and she felt sorry for Kasumigaoka Shiu. She glared at Akane Benisaka and shouted: "No, your words are too strange. You mean that after I join your plan, I will be able to Improve yourself? Are you kidding me? Compared to myself two years ago, haven't I made great progress? Akane Kurisaka, you take yourself too seriously. I spent a lot of time trying to keep up with Uesugi. How can a guy like you understand how much hard work it takes?!"

Yinglili leaned forward, as if this sentence outlined her pain and sorrow in the past two years, and her eyes were filled with tears.

"Eiriri (Sawamura-san)..." Li Yan and Kasumigaoka Shiyu were stunned by Eiriri's resistance, and they both said something silently.

Li Yan, in particular, looked at her blankly. He never knew that Ying Lili paid such a heavy price in illustration...

Akane Kurisaka looked at Eiri in silence and asked: "So, what are you thinking about? Now that you have lost the oil painting competition, you are almost going to lose the illustrations and comics again. What are you going to do now?"

After asking this question, Sawamura Eiri was speechless, but after a while, her eyes were misty and in pain, but she showed a smile, looked at Li Yan, and said: "That's it... That's fine. Even if I can't draw I want to produce stronger works. If it were Uesugi En, he wouldn’t abandon me... The same goes for everyone in the club, so even if I can’t draw anymore, I won’t lose anything... Living like this makes me satisfied. Already..."

When Li Yan heard Ying Lili's words, he didn't know why, but his heart felt cold. How could such words be said by Ying Lili...

The girl who talked about the future on the rooftop and dreamed of becoming a painter on her own, the girl who shed tears while never giving up and continuing to paint her paintings next to Mashiro Shiina, how could she stop her progress!

"Do you know what you are talking about... Ying Lili?" Li Yan asked in horror.

During this period of time, what tortured Yinglili like this...

Kasumigaoka Shiyu also felt something was wrong, so she pulled Eiriri a little and said: "Sawamura-san, you..."

As a result, Akane Benisaka's expression gradually darkened. She laughed, and suddenly she couldn't stop laughing. She was extremely arrogant, as if she heard a ridiculous joke. Li Yan and others were all attracted by Akane Benisaka, and their laughter gradually stopped. Finally, her eyes looked quite scary, and she sternly cursed: "What excuse are you looking for? Why can't you draw something? You have just gained some growth, and a little setback is regarded as a bottleneck. Are you looking down on this industry?" ?!”

Akane Kurisaka's face turned ferocious, and he scolded: "No wonder you lost to that genius from England. What happened in the last competition? Did you win by coincidence? Are you looking down on the painter, a waste like you who makes excuses everywhere? The simplest reason is that you are too bad and you are a waste!"

After being scolded like this, Eri Sawamura suddenly froze there, her eyes blank and motionless.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu shouted: "Miss Hongsaka, this is enough!!"

However, next, Akane Akane, who was furious for a moment, was disrupted by a sudden sentence.

"Miss Hongsaka, you seem to have made a mistake."

Li Yan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

When Eiriri and Shiyu saw Li Yan beside Akane Benisaka, their expressions suddenly changed. When Akane Benisaka was confused, she turned her head and looked at Li Yan beside her. As a result, in the face so close, she could only see a pair of eyes, which were sharper and full of ferociousness than hers.

"!!" Akane Kurisaka felt as if she was being targeted by some monster for a moment, and her face moved slightly for a moment.

"...Teacher Uesugi, what do you think I said wrong?" Akane Kurisaka calmed down, smiled, and asked those eyes.

Li Yan's eyes were filled with rich black arrogance, and he said: "I really hope you can help me complete the animation of the fourth season. Your strength is indeed here. However, you keep saying that I am half-baked, and now you say Yinglili is a waste, don’t forget, they are not helping you yet, you are not qualified to judge them like this..."

Akane Hongsaka was aware of Li Yan's anger. She was no longer afraid of any angry creator ten years ago, but this time she didn't understand why, and she suddenly couldn't see through this man wearing a mask. His arrogance and domineering aura were no weaker than hers, and he even had the ability to ignore and deny the words she had said before. She seemed to be calmed down by this fledgling person. This was a shame for her. However, this person actually had the courage to deny her in the face of so many actual situations. .

Li Yan retracted his competitive attitude, with a calm expression, handed her the plan, looked at her and said: "Teacher Kashiwagi has a good saying, you are too deified, don't be too light-hearted. We have seen through it all. I dare not say bad things about learning from Van Gogh’s spirit of burning his works with life. But in my eyes, you are just going from Yinglili’s extreme to yours. I will not allow you. Bring Kashiwagi-sensei and Kasumi Shiko-sensei to your world, Akane Kurisaka."

After listening to this, Akane Kurisaka showed a sarcastic smile and said, "I thought you were going to say something, Uesugi-kun. You were going to say that living in a happy creative world is the right answer, right? Do you really think about such an innocent thing? Do you agree? From what I know, you were even more ruthless than me when you first started. You refused to contact the artist, passed on your partner without saying a word, and in order to seemingly boldly declare that romance novels are garbage, you actually... I also have such naive thoughts. I couldn't do many of the excessive things you did before."

Indeed, Li Yan was not friendly at first, and even concealed from Ying Lili that he was her partner. After verbally attacking Kasumi Shiko, he only planned to follow the editor's wishes and crush Kasumi Shiko. He planned to have some interactions with those writers. He had done this kind of thing before.

At that time, Li Yan, who had just been reborn, just hoped that he could live well and live selfishly...

Akane Hongsaka looked at him, grinned, and said: "Teacher Uesugi En, have you become stronger or weaker... By the way, you seem to have done another amazing feat recently. It seems to have satirized the Japanese literary world. [Rather than some writers using some pointless literary style to attack light novels, it is more important to write some real and interesting stories]... You are really better than me Honkai, Uesugi-sensei. However, a person like me can give Kashiwagi-sensei what he needs, but can you, who can only shout from a distance, do it?"

"..."

Sawamura Eri and Kasumigaoka Shiu couldn't say a word, and could only see the two people on the other side arguing with each other. Especially Kasumigaoka Shiyu, she suddenly discovered that Li Yan, who was becoming more and more gentle, showed more terror when faced with such issues of principle than at the fifteenth anniversary banquet. This was different from the two of him. The growth in the field of novels over the years has been closely synchronized. Now, he has the confidence that she does not have and can face Akane Akane.

Li Yan is very aware of this. At present, Benisaka Akane has absolute say and the ability to improve Eiri. As of now, all empty talk will be difficult to reverse the current dominant situation.

It was already windy inside the high-rise building, and the rustling bamboo forest in the courtyard outside resounded through the house. The forest in the small courtyard inside was swaying constantly, with withered yellow leaves flying down. Li Yan responded: "Want to make a bet, Miss Hongsaka?"

Akane Hongsaka's eyes changed slightly, she stared at Li Yan, and asked with a faint smile, "What are you betting on?"

Relying on his slightly taller body, Li Yan seemed to be looking down at her and said, "Just bet on me. It proves that your vision is still blinded by your paranoid world, proves that your theory is not perfect, proves that you How about insulting Kashiwagi-sensei and Kasumi Shiko-sensei and showing your own superficiality, and then bowing and apologizing for today’s remarks?”

Akane Hongsaka smiled and asked: "Hmph, very good, Mr. Uesugi, you are indeed very arrogant, so how do you want to bet, how do you place a bet?"

Li Yan looked at her, and said with an edge in every word: "You said that my writing skills are not good, so let's compare them in terms of literature. Didn't there be a [Japan Jiemura Prose Award] recently? Of course, I I don’t dare to say that I can win the first place grand prize. I also think that Miss Hongsaka, you will not have the confidence to win the championship in the Japanese oil painting competition. So what about the top ten? If I enter the top ten, you will I take back your irritating trash comments. At the very least, don’t do anything that tramples on the dignity of my two friends again!”

Akane Hongsaka gradually withdrew her smile and looked at Li Yan in confusion.

When Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu heard this, he asked in shock: "Ten... Top ten, Jie Village Prize?!"

"What...what's wrong, Kasumigaoka?" Yinglili already knew about this, but she asked curiously.

Kasumigaoka Shiha explained doubtfully: "Although the Sukemura Prize is not as famous as the Akutagawa Prize, it is still a very difficult competition. This competition focuses on the field of literary novels and stories. If you can win the prize, you will definitely win the prize at Todai and Hayashi. It is of great help in getting into college and finding employment in publishing houses, and the gold content is quite high, so it attracts hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world to submit articles every year, but only 300 people can be selected to participate in the official competition... However, Mr. Uesugi’s Japan Mandarin…”

The top ten are undoubtedly extremely difficult, and only the top ten will have official certificates to prove their participation.

Ying Lili's face turned pale. She also knew that Li Yan was the record holder who had failed the Japanese Mandarin test twenty times, and was an old thief who had postponed the publication date 26 times in twelve volumes!

However, Kasumigaoka Shiu felt that Li Yan's purpose was somewhat unique, and he was so angry that he fought over it. Akane Benisaka and Eiri seemed to think that Li Yan was fighting over who to stay with Eiri, but...

A smile finally appeared on the corner of Akane Hongsaka's mouth. She hadn't carefully studied Uesugi Yan's biggest weakness.

"...Hehe, that's great. Let's do it like this, Mr. Uesugi."

Chapter 336 Change of Illustrator

The sky is cloudy and sunny.

After leaving Hongsaka's house, a man and two women walked on the empty street, silent to each other.

It seemed that the remaining intimidation force from Akane Benisaka had still dissipated. Eiri Sawamura lowered her head slightly at this moment and walked behind Li Yan, looking like she was distracted.
