Kasumigaoka Shiha is looking for inspiration. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It may seem hard to believe, but she is now working as a novelist.

In colloquial terms, the term light novel writer should be easier to understand, right?

And she went out this time to find inspiration for a new book.

It was almost in her first year of high school, and she had excellent grades and could sit firmly in the first place in the whole grade even if she didn't attend classes, but she suddenly wanted to try writing a novel on a whim.

Now that I think about it, the reason I started writing in the first place was probably just because I was bored.

But no matter what, at that time, Kasumigaoka Shiyu tried to write a novel.

At first, she wrote very hard.

She had already conceived the perfect scene in her mind, but for some reason, she just couldn't put it into writing, or the words she wrote were so stiff that they didn't meet her expectations.

However, after a certain amount of time, Kasumigaoka Shiha overcame this difficulty and successfully wrote his first book, "Love Metronome", and sent it to the Dengeki Bunko, which happened to be holding the 11th Dengeki Novel Contest at the time.

Not long after she submitted her article, she received a contact from the editorial department saying that she had won the gold prize of the Dengeki Novel Award.

If there is something about her debut, they will arrange for an editor to come and talk to her.

To be honest, when she first received the notification, Kasumigaoka Shiyu was really happy, and she felt that her efforts over the past few months had finally been recognized, which made her feel more excited than getting a perfect score on the exam.

Then, accompanied by her parents, she met with the editor of Machida, who was arranged by the library, and signed a contract, and successfully debuted as a 'love metronome'.

Her pen name is 'Kasumi Shiko', which is similar to her real name.

For the next year, Kasumigaoka Shiha was active as a part-time writer while attending school.

Of course, except for her family, there are also people related to her work who are kept secret, so her classmates at school don't know about the fact that she is a light novelist.

After all, the debut of a high school student is a rather rare example, and in the same library series as Kasumigaoka Shiyu, there seems to be only one writer who is younger than her, and she doesn't want to ruin her peaceful campus life because of this kind of thing.

In addition, since she made her debut directly after her first submission, she did not know the arduous process that many aspiring writers were worried about.

At that time, Kasumigaoka Shiyu once felt that he was really a genius, but that temporary self-confidence was soon completely shattered.

Now she just thinks she's lucky.

Because of the long campus romance novel she wrote, Love Metronome, when she reached the third book, she was almost stopped due to lack of popularity.

Fortunately, due to the publicity in place and the breakthrough of Kasumigaoka Shiyu's own pen power, the popularity of the novel gradually recovered, and finally avoided the ending of being cut in half.

Until last month, a total of five volumes of love metronome was successfully completed, and the cumulative sales were more than 500,000 copies.

As far as the newcomer of the light novelist is concerned, this sales are already quite good.

But Kasumigaoka Shiha himself was not satisfied.

She didn't care about the manuscript fee or anything, she just felt that she could do better.

For a month since the end of the love metronome, Kasumigaoka Shiha has been looking for inspiration for a new book.

This time, she wanted to write a novel that was different from what she had done before.

How it was different, Kasumigaoka Shiyu herself couldn't say, but it was such an idea that drove her and made her reluctant to compromise.

However, it may be because this goal is set too high, and Shiyu Kasumigaoka has nothing to gain these days.

Although he tried to write some content, he repeatedly hit a wall, and sometimes he was criticized by the vicious Machida editor, which made Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who has always been arrogant, quite frustrated.

And today, too, she wanders around in search of inspiration.

Because she was a little tired from walking, Kasumigaoka Shiyu entered the restaurant closest to her, planning to have a drink and rest for a while.

Unexpectedly, after walking into the restaurant, she happened to catch a glimpse of a young man who was always scribbling next door.

His expression was very focused, and the movement caused by people coming and going didn't seem to affect him.

For some reason, Kasumigaoka Shiyu suddenly had the idea of seeing what he was writing.

When she realized that she had this idea, Kasumigaoka Shiyu was taken aback, because she never liked to meddle with other people's affairs, and she usually didn't bother to take care of her classmates, let alone people she didn't know.

She didn't know what was wrong with her today......

Maybe it's because I can't think of a new book?

Kasumigaoka Shiyu thought so.

Maybe that person is also writing novels, and reading his books may or may not be inspired.

As this very unreliable thought emerged, Kasumigaoka Shiyu became more and more impatient, and she simply stood up, ready to see what the person was writing.

Of course, she also knows that this kind of behavior is very rude, and if she is discovered, she may even make people angry.

So Kasumigaoka Shiyu didn't plan to walk over and look at it directly, but wanted to take the opportunity of walking through the aisle to quickly glance at the contents of the notebook.

Who knew that after walking back and forth like this a few times, the young man was still writing without knowing anything, she simply stood next to her and looked at it brightly.

After all, walking back and forth like this, you can't see anything.

The boy's handwriting was very fast, and his handwriting was slightly sloppy, but he was still able to read it.

"Sure enough, it's a novel. ”

Kasumigaoka Shiyu quickly glanced at the contents of the notebook and made a judgment in his heart.

After knowing that the young man in front of her was writing a novel, she was a little more interested in her heart, so she didn't rush to leave, and stood aside to watch him continue to write.

Having said that, in this era of widespread computers, it seems that people who still insist on writing with a pen are quite rare.

At least among the light novel writers that Kasumigaoka knows, it seems that there are no such people anymore.

But it's harmless, it's just a matter of personal preference.

Like her, she prefers to be alone at home coding words than writing in a café.

"Huh?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu's good-looking eyebrows furrowed slightly.

She could see that the boy should write a fantasy-oriented work, because the passage appeared in terms such as magic and elves.

However, what made Kasumigaoka Shiyu a little puzzled was that there was a strange term in the passage.

"Death reincarnation?"

What is it?

Kasumigaoka Shiyu was slightly puzzled, staring at the boy and continuing to write.

However, looking at it, her expression changed, and her brow gradually furrowed.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu thought that the boy should write a fantasy light novel, but it doesn't seem to be more than that?

I saw that in the passage that the boy had just written, he described the psychological activities of the protagonist Caiyue Pleiades -

“「…… You wait. 」

Grasp the tail end of consciousness that is about to go away, and just turn your head to buy time.

"Pain" and "heat" are all far away, and I am simply a meaningless growl of a lost dog. And yet, despite this-

"I'll be—"

- I'll come to your rescue!

In the next second, Natsuki died. ”

Is the protagonist dead?

Kasumigaoka's pretty brows furrowed even deeper.
