A super great writer in the second dimension

　Suddenly—Sanzenin Arashi fell silent without saying a word.

　The atmosphere is a little weird.

　“Eri-ri…” Sayuri Sawamura couldn’t help but speak up.

　Eriri frowned. "Mom, what's wrong?"

　Xiaobaihe looked at her daughter and said helplessly, "The one in your hand was drawn by Lan."

　Eriri Sawamura: "...???"

　"Look, there's an autograph on the back too."

　..

7. So, princesses really can't be childhood sweethearts.

　Eriri's expression was priceless. At that moment, Sanzenin Arashi realized that even though the girl wasn't saying anything and just had a blank expression, she was still quite cute.

　"Huh? Mom, what funny thing are you talking about?!"

　Sanzenin Arashi shook his head: "I understand your feelings. Humans will still question things they can't believe, no matter how much irrefutable evidence they see."

　"So this duel is a victory for Arashi-kun?" Sayuri Sawamura patted her daughter's shoulder: "Eriri, you need to learn to see the facts clearly."

　"Wait—wait a minute!" Eriri Sawamura asked, looking completely bewildered. "What on earth happened?!"

　"And... is this comic really an original work drawn by this guy?"

　Sawamura Sayuri nodded. "Really? You know yourself, Arashi-kun hasn't left this door in the last few hours, right? I saw it with my own eyes."

　That hit the nail on the head.

　Eriri let out a very uncooperative sound, her eyes filled with disbelief.

　After pursing her lips, Sanzenin Arashi said, "I didn't mean to belittle you at all. In fact, when Ms. Sayuri said that her daughter was very good at drawing, I was already planning to suggest that you be my assistant. However, the duel that followed made things more advantageous for me, so I didn't say it out loud."

　"What…" Eriri Sawamura's twin tails stood up straight. "You lied to me?!"

　Sanzenin Arashi frowned.

　“You look quite resentful, Eriri,” Sayuri said with a smile.

　"It's all because of that Moon Knight!"

　“Tell me in detail,” Sanzenin Arashi suddenly spoke up.

　Eriri gave her a "I can't stand you" look. "Princess Ulrika fainted because of that Moon Knight! And then the princess said: It was all because of that heartless man!"

　"Pfft—!" Sanzenin Arashi spat out a mouthful of water.

　Ulrika was a British princess, the jewel of London, and a woman of extraordinary beauty.

　He was also her childhood sweetheart.

　Then his knightly title was: Moonlight.

　..

8. Those damned online transvestites!

　After the two left, Sanzenin Arashi took out her new phone. She needed a reliable new identity. She had entrusted someone else to handle the identity change before she came to Japan.

　That person was Joshua Bright, the senior apprentice of the sword saint Cassius.

　He completely forgot about the princess.

　Sanzenin Arashi asked him to find a small family to help him, and then he would use an excuse to get a new Japanese ID card.

　This ID card is used to establish a company and operate one's own business.

　Lan entered Joshua's phone number into her phone and dialed it directly.

　Then I received a reply email from the Aoyama family.

　The above is information about the members of the Aoyama family. Several generations ago, some of their descendants went abroad and then lost contact with them.

　Their family members are few, so adding one more person wouldn't be a problem.

　The Aoyama family also has an only daughter.

　Looking at the photo above, the girl is very cute, with a brown ponytail, two bright eyes, and slender arms—a classic Japanese woman.

　Her name was written on it—Aoyama Nanami.

　She's fifteen years old. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll run into her in Osaka.

　After organizing the materials for a while, Sanzenin Arashi went directly to Tokyo Station and bought a direct express train ticket to Osaka.

　He was in a great hurry the whole way.

　Arashi Sanzenin is currently very frustrated because he hates Tokyo. But that's not all; he plans to start a company with the goal of publishing novels, and later expand into manga, and even media such as anime and movies.

　Arashi Sanzenin once wanted to do this: turn those great anime into 3D movies, and then bring over all the games from his past life to create a two-dimensional community that he felt comfortable with.

　Right now, I'm still all alone.

　Sanzenin Arashi was enjoying this perk by reading articles on a blog.

　If you come across someone with impressive writing skills in the literature section, just start digging into their work.

　Talent never waits for anyone.

　I spent over half an hour browsing blogs, and all I found were student-level essays.

　Immediately afterward, Sanzenin Arashi's eyes lit up.

　Asian essays are quite good, and the one he's reading now is one of the better ones, especially since the author is a girl. So Sanzenin Arashi gave it a like and casually wrote a comment.

　He was immediately impressed by this girl's writing style.

　Furthermore, the blogger's name clearly indicates she's a girl; it's 【霞诗子】 (Xia Shizi).

　but……

　Although it was said to be casual, Sanzenin Arashi's actions were anything but simple. Using international literary standards as a benchmark, she meticulously picked out more than a dozen flaws from a single essay, from its linguistic feel and word choice to the impact of those plosive characters on the reading rhythm. Several hundred words were sent out in a flash.

　Just follow this blogger and wait for her reply.

　Xia Shizi is still a student, but writers can work part-time if they have the time.

　The comment was replied to within five seconds.

　Sanzenin Arashi discovered that very few people enjoy reading literature, and even fewer leave comments on her blog.

　The blogger was delighted to receive the reply, saying that someone who appreciated her had finally appeared, and promptly sent her her Facebook number, asking to add her as a friend.

　Sanzenin Arashi, who was also experiencing womanhood for the first time, added the blogger as a friend without hesitation after seeing her action.

　With the thought, "Maybe there will be a real photo?" in mind, Sanzenin Arashi immediately went to check the girl's information!

　He discovered that there was none at all!

　Sanzenin Arashi immediately became wary and dared not show his true face. Could this guy be a transvestite?

　No way! Even if we're desperate for people, we absolutely cannot accept transgender people!

　Apart from the name "Xia Shizi" on it, there's nothing else, and the occupation is listed as high school student!

　Ah, it's very common. A transgender man pretends to be a high school girl and uses articles copied from elsewhere to deceive innocent people like himself.

　He hadn't read much about Japanese literature, so he started to hesitate, wondering whether he should talk to this girl...

　To Sanzenin Arashi's surprise, this girl actually sent him a message herself.

　[Xia Shizi]: Do you like prose?

　[Xia Shizi]: How should I address you?

　[Xia Shizi]: Your comment is amazing, although your insight is not as good as mine. Instead, please tell me your detailed opinions as soon as possible.

　[Xia Shizi]: What... Do you intend to ignore me, sir?

　[Kasumi Shiko]: Ah, you'll regret this! You'll definitely regret ignoring Lady Kasumi Shiko like this, I promise!

　[Xia Shizi]: Speak! Talk!

　Sanzenin Arashi, with a "let's just get by" attitude, typed out a line:

　"Would you like to sign a contract with me and become a writer?"

　..

9. My goal is to share with you exactly what's in my head.

　[Xia Shizi]: Get away from me... no, get away from me, you pervert!

　[Lan]: What exactly happened...?

　[Xia Shizi]: Do you think I'm that easy to fool? Sir, you're underestimating today's high school students, aren't you? You think these minors are so easy to deceive, so you've been investigating me. Today, you've finally shown up after finishing your investigation, planning to lure me to a secluded place, saying it's 'to become a novelist,' and then do something bad to me, right?

　Sanzenin Arashi never expected that her simple statement would be met with such a sharp rebuttal.

　However, he is now basically certain that this Xia Shizi is definitely not some online transvestite.

　It must be said that this girl's writing is truly beautiful.

　If it wasn't plagiarism, then Sanzenin Arashi could already picture a beautiful girl—those elegant and rhythmic words, the clever layout, and one could imagine her delicate hands typing on the keyboard.

　Furthermore, if this girl wasn't lying about her age on her blog, then as someone about to establish a novel imprint, Sanzenin Arashi would be even more desirable.

　Thinking this, Sanzenin Arashi continued typing:

　[Lan]: No, I'm very serious. Your writing is beautiful. Although I've only read your essays and don't know much about the ideas, I can say for sure that even a boring thing can be written in a very interesting way.

　After saying that, Xia Shizi remained silent for several minutes.

　Then suddenly—[Xia Shizi]: It seems he's not some con artist who just made things up.

　[Lan]: I'm not a con artist at all, but someone who wants to recruit you to write novels. Let me put it this way, I'm planning to start a paperback library.

　[Xia Shizi]: Oh, so that's what I mean?

　[Lan]: That's why I'm currently raising funds for authors. I can't be the only one writing, can I? A library can't just have pillars; it also needs ordinary authors.

　[Xia Shizi]: I mean, you...are you classifying yourself as a pillar of the company and me as an ordinary author? Just to confirm, is that what you mean?

　This is a tricky problem—Sanzenin Arashi thought to himself.

　But this didn't stump him.

　【岚】: If it only has fancy wording but the plot is very ordinary, then it is just an ordinary novel. As I said before, I have only read your essays so far. If we were to compare it to a test paper, you only did 60 points. Even if I wanted to give you a higher score, I simply couldn't.

　[Xia Shizi]: You didn't even look at it, how could you say something like that?

　【岚】：Wait a minute.

　Sanzenin Arashi sighed. "Since you're going to do this, don't blame me for setting a trap for you, Miss Kasumi Shiko."

　—I switched my phone to the blog section and read Xia Shizi's essays again. I spent half a minute summarizing them, then rewrote them and sent them to her directly.—

　Originally, Kasumi Shiko's prose was about the morning, but she used the forest as a backdrop to describe objects such as dew, and then added exclamatory sentences to express her feelings. It can be said to be a classic style of writing.

　However, Arashi Sanzenin shifted her perspective to the ocean.

　He rewrote the theme of "early morning" with life as the theme and the sunrise around the horizon as the core.

　He didn't change the original layout at all; at most, he just changed the content of the sentences, but it gave people a sophisticated feeling.

　Then--

　[Xia Shizi]: ...Can you tell me why this is?

　After reading it, Xia Shizi only said this one sentence.

　As the girl jumped into his trap, Sanzenin Arashi's lips curled into a smile.

　【Lan】: Essays don't have a real focus; they're just expressions of feelings. But that's at best just being an artist. Novelists, as authors, are creators. They should turn content into articles, not essays. They should turn a certain mood into content. Seriously speaking, when I see the sunrise, I can think of "morning." When I see the word "morning," I can think of the sunrise.

　[Xia Shizi]: And then?

　[Lan]: As I said before, the author is a creator. My purpose is to create a morning in your mind, to materialize a red sun rising on the horizon of dawn, and to let you see the morning in my mind exactly as it is. In that sense, being an author is truly a magical profession.
