A super great writer in the second dimension

　The list spanned four full A4 pages, detailing everything from the company's office supplies purchases to internet expenses in an outrageously detailed manner. Incidentally, the sales of Sword Art Online were also attributed to Nico Nico Douga. This single book alone generated a total revenue of six billion yen.

　Then the interesting things started.

　Arashi Sanzenin and Yukino Yukinoshita started calculating the distribution fees and book costs removed from Sword Art Online, adding everything up.

　Instead of subtracting, we added; that's how we calculate economic benefits—the final result became seven billion.

　The two sat in front of the computer and slowly calculated. Yukino Yukinoshita tallied up all sorts of miscellaneous items, while Sanzenin Arashi added up all of NIOCNICO's expenses, including some expenditures, turning negative numbers into positive ones.

　This damn thing is an economic bubble.

　After the results came out, even Yukinoshita Haruno couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.

　180 billion yen.

　Even though the company's revenue, including AngelBeats!!, mobile novels, and physical novels, only amounts to a gross profit of around six billion yen and a total profit of only nine billion yen, the economic benefits it has generated are as high as this.

　This is calculated according to the Japanese model. If we really deduct the economic impact, the figure would probably reach around 30 billion.

　This result would only be considered mid-level among all Japanese companies; there are also top-tier, pillar-level, and other similar companies. However, it is quite unbelievable that NICONICO, a company established only six months ago, has achieved this level.

　Arashi Sanzenin is practically cheating. It's impossible for a human to release Sword Art Online and then make a game, and it's impossible for a novelist to run an IT business, let alone use the popularity accumulated to release so much in a short period of time. With all these cheat codes, NIOCNICO has become the company with the highest capital growth rate in Japan.

　NICONICO's registered capital is 1 million yen.

　The current statistics show that the company's assets have increased 180 times.

　This is a bit scary. If it were published, the financial media would probably want to dissect him and study him. If Sanzenin Arashi were an ordinary person, he certainly wouldn't dare to publish it like this.

　However, he had a powerful background and wasn't afraid of being investigated, so he directly posted the detailed results of the statistics on Nico Nico Douga and even pinned it to the top.

　[The flame of anime never dies out: Nico Nico Douga releases its fully transparent marketing results]

　It's unclear what kind of impact this video will have, but one thing is certain: Niconico is now attracting attention from various media outlets, all waiting for this website with its massive IP traffic to make a big splash.

　Now, Sanzenin Arashi is going to give them a big surprise.

　After doing all that, Sanzenin Arashi happily ran off to go on a date with the clever and adorable Eri.

　..

344. Eri, you little rascal...

　Arashi Sanzenin came out of the company and looked at the gray sky. The weather forecast said it would snow today, and the temperature was already below zero. He simply went to the garage, drove his car out, and then drove to the Ayase family's house according to the address.

　It doesn't matter how he knew the address; this kind of thing is easy to find if someone checks it.

　As she walked along, observing the pedestrians and cars beside her, Sanzenin Arashi mentally reviewed her schedule for the day.

　Going to Asahi TV at 3:30 PM to participate in the filming of a program, and then sitting in front of the TV to watch my own live broadcast in the evening—I often see this kind of thing in novels and movies, but it still feels strange to do it myself.

　The car arrived at its destination quickly.

　The Ayase family.

　A high-end apartment near Akihabara, which suggests that the student council president's family is quite wealthy. After all, they are an overseas family. The grandmother obviously married a Japanese officer during World War II, and... it's true that they are rich, because during World War II, it was very difficult for Japanese men to marry foreign women. It was impossible without a certain amount of power. It seems that Eri has some hidden rich girl attributes.

　I took out my phone and made a call. The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered. I checked the time; it was almost 12:30.

　"What's going on?" Sanzenin Arashi simply went up there.

　After I rang the doorbell, an elderly woman opened the door.

　She wears clothes that are not at all outdated; she's considered a fashionable grandma among the elderly.

　"Qingshan Lan?" The old woman's eyes widened, her voice tinged with the vicissitudes of life: "How did you end up here?"

　"Do you recognize me?" Sanzenin Arashi smiled. "I'm Eri..."

　"Instead of this, why don't you come in and sit down?" The old lady seemed very happy.

　"My shop has been packed since yesterday, is that your doing?"

　Sanzenin Arashi was taken aback.

　I did post about the meal and a few photos of the food on Twitter yesterday. The restaurant was really delicious, so it was packed, which is to be expected. I just gave it a little free publicity.

　As he entered, Sanzenin Arashi took the water from Grandma Eri. The old woman wanted to chat with him, but at that moment, a wooden door next to him suddenly opened.

　Eli Ayase ran out from inside.

　She was running anxiously, still wearing a set of pajamas, with one foot in a white sock and the other bare.

　And then... and then, Ayase Eli took off her pajamas.

　That blue bra could barely contain those two snow-white rabbits!

　puff……

　Sanzenin Arashi spat out a mouthful of water. What the hell did I just see?!

　"What is this child doing..." Grandma Eri said with a frown, "Don't be offended, Eri is sometimes like this."

　Sanzenin Arashi sniffed, took out a handkerchief to wipe the water from the corner of her mouth, and looked at the floor.

　Is this how it sometimes?

　Running around the house and then suddenly starting to take off your clothes? What kind of biker gang does that?

　There was a white sock not far away.

　A little further on was a nightgown, just lying on the floor.

　Looking to the side, there was also a pair of pajama pants.

　……

　I'll rest for a bit, then get up, take a shower, put on some light makeup, and wear my new down jacket before going out for dinner.

　That's what Ayase Eli was thinking before she went to sleep.

　A noisy alarm clock rang out, and a small, delicate hand emerged from under the tightly wrapped blankets, holding the alarm clock, and then…

　Then he shrank back into bed.

　Holding the cute little alarm clock wrapped in a layer of fluffy cotton cloth to my chest, I turned over comfortably and let out a soft "ooh ooh ooh".

　I have to say, it feels so good to go to sleep after staying up all night!

　after an hour.

　Ayase Eli rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up from the covers. The cold air made her shiver, but at this moment, the girl was also quite proud of herself.

　'The alarm hasn't gone off yet, I'll sleep a little longer...'

　Just as she was about to go to sleep, she noticed something strange in the blankets.

　When I touched it, it seemed to be an alarm clock.

　Upon picking it up and looking at it, my sleepiness vanished instantly from my bright blue eyes.

　12 noon!

　'I messed up, I messed up...'

　Ayase Eli had a word echoing in her mind, and then she quickly got out of bed. Normally she would be shivering at this time, but now her adrenaline surged and she was jolted awake. She didn't even have time to shower or put on makeup. Wouldn't that mean she would have to go out without makeup?

　The person I met at noon today was no joke!

　Going makeup-free... While going makeup-free isn't necessarily unattractive, it just doesn't seem sincere enough. What if people think he's being looked down upon?

　She hurriedly took out a change of clothes from the closet, walked from the bedroom to the bathroom, quickly unbuttoned her clothes, and then took them off one by one.

　He casually pulled off a sock and tossed it aside.

　He yanked his pajamas off and tossed them onto the floor.

　When I walked into the living room, my grandmother seemed to be looking at me, but I didn't care about that anymore.

　People are forced to do things!

　Her entire body was exposed starting from her fair shoulders. Standing next to the showerhead, she was only wearing her panties. Her little white breasts raised their heads in the air. Ayase Eli lifted her leg, took off her panties, quickly cleaned herself up, and brushed her teeth in front of the sink. Only then did the girl relax and breathe a sigh of relief.

　It was a close call. As long as I sent a text message at 12:30 saying I was ready, there wouldn't be any problems.

　It’s so dangerous!

　After brushing her teeth, washing the toothbrush, and putting it back in the cup, Eli Ayase, now wearing a winter woolen shirt and a blue skirt that covered her knees, walked out of the bathroom.

　"I'm so sorry to have to ask you for help with something like this. My back is a little sore."

　"No, no, no, let me do it. Can't we just throw these things in the washing machine?"

　Grandma seemed to be talking to someone.

　Eli Ayase pushed open the door, and then her eyes widened.

　"Eh?"

　Just then, Sanzenin Arashi straightened up, holding the girl's pajamas in her arms and a blue bra in her hand. The tag had an E+-F mark, indicating it was a growth bra.

　Eli Ayase was instantly petrified.

　..

345. A Better Choice

　Seeing the older sister-type character's shy expression secretly pleased Sanzenin Arashi. He had just been free at noon and was thinking of inviting the young president out for a meal to reassure her, but he never expected to see such a perk.

　Satisfied as she was, Ayase Eli was now so embarrassed she wanted to disappear into nowhere. She couldn't speak when she remembered what she had just done.

　Grandma Eri wasn't worried about what was happening here at all. After all, Aoyama Arashi was a public figure and had helped the store so much, so she couldn't be bothered to care about her granddaughter.

　To be honest, Ayase Eli isn't the type of person whose family worries about her. The responsible student council president manages things very well.

　Ayase Eli was a little stunned as she walked out the door and stood in front of the car.

　"It's relatively close to Qiuye from here, shall we walk there?"

　"Huh? Okay, let's go over there."

　As she walked down the street, Eli Ayase thought about how she had really failed today.

　"What would you like to eat, Ayase-san?"

　"I'll leave it to Mr. Aoyama," Eli Ayase quickly replied.

　"Okay, then leave it to me." Sanzenin Arashi steadily followed the schedule.

　We soon arrived at Akiba Station.

　Across the street is Akihabara's famous Gundam Cafe, which even offers a Gundam cockpit dining room. Going up to the second floor, you'll find models of the main Gundam mobile suits from all the previous Gundam series, and a row of Zeon's general-purpose MS warrior models. It's incredibly popular among Akihabara's customers.

　The Gundam series is like Johnny's Entertainment in the anime and manga world. Just as there's SAMP, V6, and Arashi in the idol world, we in the anime and manga world have Kira Yamato, Team 06, and Celestial Being.

　However, the restaurant that Sanzenin Arashi was taking Ayase Eli to wasn't Gundam Cafe, but a shop next door.

　Standing in front of Akiha Station, you can see the queue next to Gundam Cafe. There is a long queue next to Gundam Cafe, and customers enter the cafe in an orderly manner to eat. The cafe's sign has a huge white bold letter [AKB48] on it, and then the cafe sign is next to it.

　"This is it." At the very end of the coffee shop queue, Sanzenin Arashi stopped.

　“AkbCafe?” Eli Ayase looked at the sign thoughtfully.

　Sanzenin Arashi seemed to be deep in thought. The idol industry was something the Sanzenin family had never touched. In this area, the Japanese relied on the coattails of a few American conglomerates. Originally, this industry should have been the Nishikawa family's share, but they stopped at the two-dimensional entertainment sector. Wasn't it because the three-dimensional sector was very strong?

　The waters here run deep, but it's a place that Sanzenin Arashi really wants.

　“Let’s walk around inside first. Are you hungry?” Sanzenin Arashi asked.

　Eli Ayase shook her head; she wasn't hungry at all, she was so scared she was full.

　AkbCafe naturally requires queuing for a meal, and the shop is usually packed. This national group has no shortage of fans. The entire cafe is actually divided into two sections: one for dining and the other for selling merchandise related to its members.

　Before stepping through the door, Sanzenin Arashi looked up and saw the Don Quijote Department Store. That place was actually owned by the American conglomerate. When Akimoto Yasushi used this prime location, he handed over all the production rights to AKB48 merchandise. Sanzenin Arashi didn't know what else he had given up.

　Ayase Eli and Sanzenin Arashi walked inside, and there was a row of gashapon machines in the middle. Inside were gashapon machines with various AKB members. You could get all sorts of small items from them, from figurines and keychains to stickers. They seemed to be quite popular.

　"Want to play?"

　"May I?"

　The two of them didn't look like a couple on a date at all, and that was indeed the case.

　Ayase Eli touched it for a while, and suddenly her little face turned red.
