Chapter Thirty-Six: She Promised Him

After covering my sister with a quilt, I walked out of the room lightly.

She fell asleep......

After eating, I clamored for me to play with the noble King of Witches in the dark night.

Due to the influence of human identity, I can only nod my head in agreement.

Anyway, I think after half an hour she'll feel sleepy and run back to her room to sleep.

…… Things turned out more than I expected.

In just ten minutes, she fell asleep on the floor without lifting her eyelids.

…… Yes, just ten minutes, not more than thirty.

So, is it really a human child?

Sending my sister back to her room and witnessing her fall asleep, I opened the sliding door and stepped into my room.

…… Dark magic has reached its peak.

Glancing at the clock, the Arabic numerals of [twelve] clearly caught my eye.

Pulling out my chair and sitting down, I was about to continue to replenish my incomplete Dark Sutra.

At this time, I suddenly noticed that someone was sending me a message on the open [SNS].

"What are you doing?"

I don't have many friends on SNS.

Especially not many people know my true identity, the Witch King of the Night.

And among them, there is the guy who sent me a message in front of me.

Crappy beginning.

Thinking so, I replied to him.

"So, what's the matter, Kazeta Takasaka. ”

Yes, Kazeta Takasaka.

This one looks like ......

No, the guy who looks like it's my name in real life is the one who knows who I really am.

According to my guess, the screen name of this guy in front of me is very likely to be fake.

In other words, the name of the guy in front of him is most likely not his real name.

What fool would use his real name as a screen name?

This person named Kazeta Takasaka is probably the target of his prank by him, who knows that I am the King of the Dark Witch.

"Were you busy just now?"

"Hmm. ”

The time of his lame start was 11:34:36.

It's been almost thirty minutes.

Of course, I don't feel guilty for making him wait thirty minutes for me.

Not only because of my noble status, but also because of my familiarity with him.

I've known him for over a year, and he's the human who witnessed me become the Night Witch King.

No, he who can look directly at the dark words of the Night Witch King is certainly not human.

As I pondered his true identity, I asked about his purpose.

"Stupid Kazeta Takasaka, what the hell is going on?"

Whatever he said, I don't think it would surprise me.

As the King of the Night Witch, I've always kept my composure and calm.

Even at this moment, when the sun god Apollo came here to crusade against me, my inner emotions would not fluctuate in the slightest.

He was quick to reply to my message just now, but now he made me wait a full minute.

"Fallen Sky Holy Black Cat, are you still drawing comics lately?"

The Fallen Sky Holy Black Cat is part of my screen name [Chiba の Fallen Sky Holy Black Cat].

Chiba is the name of the place, and the place where I live in the mortal world is Higashitennuma Town, Chiba City.

"Hmm. ”

After replying to him, I probably understood what he needed to do.

You thought they were coming to me to play games again......

“…… I need an illustrator. ”

Ha?!

Just one sentence set off a huge wave in my heart.

Illustrator of an illustrator?!

Aren't you looking at the comics I drawn?

Exhaling softly, I replied to him with trembling hands.

"Are you a light novelist?"

This is the first thought that comes to mind.

Even I don't know why.

"It's not. ”

I could see him shaking his head on the other end of the computer.

Relieved, I calmed down, and secretly blamed myself for the fuss I had just made.

As the King of the Night Witch, how can I break my composure and calm state of mind just because of a word?

"What do you want to do?"

Honestly, right now, even as the Night Witch King, I don't know what he's trying to do.

After all, I'm not good at mind reading.

"Illustrator! I need an illustrator in my light novel, aren't you drawing comics for the Fallen Saint Black Cat? I think if it were you, it would be possible!"

I silently glanced at the Dark Sutra on the table.

"I'm not very good at drawing, and don't you say you're not a light novelist?"

"Not now. ”

Before I could reply, he sent another message.

"I'm going to participate in the Lightning Strike Library's [Lightning Strike Novel Award] competition. ”

…… Is this guy the same as me?

I also know about the [Lightning Strike Library Award], and I already submitted it a month ago.

In addition, I have also submitted to the Newcomer Award in [MF] and [SD].

This guy in front of you hasn't even submitted yet?

"Call the seniors!"

Suddenly a pleasant feeling arose in the bottom of my heart.

This year is my first submission.

But the submission time is earlier than him, so of course, I am his senior.

At least that's what I thought.

"Huh?!Do you mean you're a light novelist?"

"Hmph, stupid Kazeta Takasaka, I've already contributed. ”

“…… All right. ”

His depressed look must have been amused.

Thinking about it so wickedly, I pulled back to the topic.

"Do you need an illustrator?"

“…… Well. ”

"Newcomer, can you show me your manuscript first?"

“…… No problem. ”

It looks reluctant, this newcomer.

Snickering in my heart, I agreed to his request before I saw his draft: "If you think you can still accept my drawing skills, then I can draw an illustration for you." ”

Manga and illustration are not exactly the same thing.

Comics are more about using pictures to tell stories, and most of them should be concise, while illustrations can be very rich and complex.

In any case, in the end, the comics and illustrations are all about [drawing skills].

"Thank you very much!"

This newcomer is still very polite!

I don't know why I'm getting happier and happier.
