A super great writer in the second dimension

　He couldn't believe that a normal girl would wear such clothes out in the middle of the night.

　Arashi Sanzenin is certain that Erina Nakiri cherishes her body very much; otherwise, she wouldn't have made such a fuss over an engagement. If she were the kind of promiscuous woman, she would definitely choose to get married, have children, and then go out and seduce dozens of men, having a great time every day.

　Therefore, in Sanzenin Arashi's eyes, Erina Nakiri is definitely a woman of high moral character.

　However, now she's showing up at his doorstep dressed like a prostitute; it's obvious she's up to something.

　After entering the room, Erina Nakiri glanced around and saw a printed copy of "Sword Art Online." Ignoring the fact that Arashi Sanzenin was still standing beside her, she picked it up and looked at it briefly.

　This book is a printed copy, without even a barcode or other labels. It's also the fourth volume of Sword Art Online, and only volume 3 has been published so far. The editorial department sent it to Arashi Sanzenin a few days before the release of the fourth volume. This is a perk for authors; if the book is popular, it can even fetch a very good price.

　A true collector's item.

　Erina Nakiri frowned and asked, "How come you have Sword Art Online Volume 4 here? This book hasn't even been published yet. Do you know the author?"

　"What, you like reading novels?" Sanzenin Arashi smiled, but in her heart she was wondering if the other party had come here so late to offer herself up.

　She gave herself her first time, and then he got her virginity so that Erina Nakiri could go back and report.

　"What interests I have is none of your business to tell me," Erina Nakiri said, looking displeased, but she sat down on the sofa and started reading.

　"Hey, hey, hey, you came here so late just to read a book?" Sanzenin Arashi took the book from her hand and cut straight to the point: "Tell me about your business."

　..

123. This cheap fiancée...

　"Hold me." Erina Nakiri stood up, raised her arms high to her sides, and closed her eyes: "Come on..."

　Sanzenin Arashi twitched the corner of her mouth.

　Is she kidding me?

　"You despicable bastard, come and take my virginity away, let me go back." Erina Nakiri's expression was holy, like the Virgin Mary sacrificing herself for heaven, having already disregarded her personal safety and seen through the illusions of the world.

　"If fighting back after being hit is considered despicable, then there are at least seven billion people in this world who are more despicable than me. Does that mean drugging someone is righteous and honorable?" Sanzenin Arashi felt amused. "I didn't mean to hug you either."

　"...You're not interested in me?" Erina Nakiri frowned. "Are you impotent? Or do you simply prefer men?"

　Sanzenin Arashi was somewhat speechless. "Miss Nakiri Erina, no matter how you look at it, this has nothing to do with liking men, right?"

　He thought to himself, "This Erina Nakiri is far too arrogant."

　"Then hurry up and free me," Erina Nakiri said succinctly.

　“It seems you haven’t understood what I mean. I have no intention of taking advantage of someone in distress. If you weren’t forced by your family, I would have no doubt shown you what it’s like to be a man if you were standing here.” Sanzenin Arashi paused. “I will not hug a woman who has been forced to offer herself to me. Don’t confuse me with those young masters.”

　Erina Nakiri felt a little uneasy being rejected so directly. In her imagination, this person would never refuse her if she wanted to.

　But.

　It wasn't a fruitless trip; I actually found Sword Art Online Volume 4.

　She didn't reply to Sanzenin Arashi's words, but instead began to look around the living room. The decoration was very ordinary, and it was hard to imagine that the heir of the Sanzenin family would live in such a dilapidated place.

　Indeed, for someone like Sanzenin Arashi, a luxury apartment is considered a simple place.

　Sanzenin Arashi was already a little annoyed when he saw Nakiri Erina scanning his room with a scrutinizing look, but he kept quiet to be polite.

　"Miss Nakiri, please make yourself at home. I need to get back to work." Sanzenin Arashi handed over the fourth volume of Sword Art Online: "Please accept this book..."

　After thinking about it, he went back to his room and wrote his signature on it.

　It's a rare book, with only two copies of each volume. I keep one for myself and print one for the library. It would be a disservice to the book's preciousness not to write a signature on it.

　Erina Nakiri watched Sanzenin Arashi return to his room, wondering what that mysterious guy was up to. But getting this Sword Art Online manga today was definitely a win.

　Even before its official release, a book can be shown off among book lovers for a while.

　Now it seems that this Sanzenin Arashi isn't so bad after all; at least he's much better than those rich kids who just laze around doing nothing. However, he's still quite a bit short of my expectations.

　Sanzenin Arashi soon came out of her room.

　In front of Sanzenin Arashi, Nakiri Erina's smile vanished, replaced by a stern face and a glare.

　"What were you doing inside? Speaking of which, don't you think this place is too small?" Erina Nakiri said sarcastically. "A standard three-bedroom apartment, about 130 tsubo (approximately 153 square meters), is indeed considered a very good place to live by ordinary people. I remember the rumors about you, that you lived in the Count of Monte Cristo's castle since you were a child. Are you satisfied with this place now? I remember that the main residence of your Sanzenin family is much larger than the Imperial Palace of Japan, and its total area is almost the same as Tokyo, right?"

　"If you include the special ecosystem of the Otaku, the total area is 1.5 times that of Tokyo. And then, is there anything else?" Sanzenin Arashi put the book on the table: "Since you like Sword Art Online, I'll give you this book. Put away your princess attitude in front of me and just say what you want. Do you think I can't see through your little schemes?"

　"You, you...who's up to something?" Erina Nakiri bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "How can you be so unreasonable?"

　Sanzenin Arashi sighed, placing her hands on either side: "To be honest, I haven't said a single word here except to answer your questions. Don't you have ulterior motives for coming here so late at night? Have you ever seen a normal person in this world come to someone's house at three in the morning just to take a walk?"

　"I didn't come here for a walk, you idiot!" Erina Nakiri blushed.

　“Hmm…you certainly didn’t come here for a walk.” Sanzenin Arashi chuckled twice. “After all, people who take a walk don’t come in and immediately start harassing others, nor do they go on and on mocking the owner. From this perspective, you’re clearly here to cause trouble.”

　"What...what do you mean? Are you trying to kick me out?"

　“I’m not kicking you out. I need to get back to work now. I hope you can have some peace and quiet, Ms. Nakiri Erina.” Sanzenin Arashi stood up. “That’s all. I’m going back to my room now. You can have fun by yourself.”

　Sanzenin Arashi walked into her bedroom and slammed the door shut.

　Erina Nakiri was met with a cold shoulder, staring wide-eyed at the closed door in disbelief, her expression as if she had swallowed a fly.

　"what the hell!"

　The girl's face pouted like a steamed bun, and she stomped her feet on the ground, fuming, "What the hell? What ...

　As everyone knows, it takes time for girls to dress up. Erina Nakiri had already dressed up very carefully, but she didn't expect that this bastard wouldn't even glance at her except when he opened the door. She was originally very confident, but now it has all been shattered.

　My confidence has shattered into pieces, scattered all over the ground.

　……

　Arashi Sanzenin is preparing to finish writing the fifth volume of Sword Art Online. After completing this volume, his contract with Shinazugawa Bunko will be over.

　His contract with Shinazugawa was to produce five volumes by the end of the year, and Sanzenin Arashi estimated that they would come up with a new contract.

　Shinazugawa will go to even greater lengths to win over this book, which means that Sanzenin Arashi can get more money.

　The sales figures for Sword Art Online speak for themselves; if you have enough power, you'll be popular anywhere.

　This applies to the capital industry as well as the physical goods industry.

　The same applies to the fiction and literature industry.

　Just as Sanzenin Arashi was focused on typing, a loud clanging sound rang out.

　Looking back, Sanzenin Arashi's expression became very strange.

　Erina Nakiri stood in the room, staring at the screen with disbelief. After a few seconds of stunned silence, she murmured, "This book... you wrote it?"

　“Of course.” Sanzenin Arashi nodded. “Didn’t I sign my name on the Sword Art Online book I gave you?”

　..

124. What do you think?

　As Sanzenin Arashi spoke, Nakiri Erina picked up the Sword Art Online game from the ground and threw it directly at his face.

　"Back to you!"

　The book drew near Sanzenin Arashi's face, and he reached out to grab it. The force from the book surprised him slightly, and it made a "snap" sound when it struck his palm.

　This guy definitely threw it with all his might.

　If that hits hard, I'll probably be disfigured tonight.

　Sanzenin Arashi's gaze towards Nakiri Erina turned hostile. Pointing to the door, she coldly said, "Get out of here."

　"What?" Erina Nakiri's expression was somewhat blank, seemingly quite surprised by Arashi Sanzenin's words, and there was a hint of panic in her eyes. "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to lose it, it's just..."

　Sanzenin Arashi shook his head: "I just couldn't help it, I acted too quickly, right?"

　He thought to himself, "If I hadn't been trained, you would have knocked me into the hospital."

　The paperback can be held in one hand, but the smaller page area results in it being very stiff to hold.

　If you throw it, it's like carrying a brick; if it hits someone, it's really no different from carrying a brick.

　“Hmm…” Erina Nakiri nodded, no longer as assertive as when she first arrived; her voice had become weak for some reason.

　Sanzenin Arashi laughed, but there was a chill in his voice: "So, because you acted too quickly, I might end up in the hospital?"

　Erina Nakiri looked a little embarrassed and bit her lip: "Why are you always getting angry? I didn't mean to."

　Sanzenin Arashi said coldly, "When you impulsively threw the paperback at my face, did you ever consider whether you did it on purpose? Ms. Nakiri, do you really want me to take concrete actions to prove what I said?"

　Erina Nakiri's face paled, and her heart skipped a beat.

　To be precise, Sanzenin Arashi is not someone who gets angry easily, and he doesn't have many complicated relationships with his fiancée. In fact, he has been enduring her inexplicable sarcasm and resentment.

　However, if some things keep happening again and again, even Sanzenin Arashi can't tolerate it anymore.

　While eating in Ginza, Erina Nakiri implied that he was a lunatic. Was Arashi Sanzenin angry?

　No!

　Then Erina Nakiri put on an act of being the most miserable person in the world, adopting the face of a suffering princess, and said a lot of things, before finally parting ways.

　It's worth noting that Sanzenin Arashi is also facing pressure from her family while pursuing her own goals.

　Who is Emperor Sanzenin?

　Who was Erina Nakiri's father?

　Can these two be compared on the same level?

　This is a completely different level of pressure! These two are simply not even in the same league!

　Erina Nakiri didn't want to marry him, but he didn't dare to go against his family's wishes, so Arashi Sanzenin had to sleep with her, break that barrier, and maintain an ambiguous relationship. Arashi Sanzenin had to do as she was told and take the blame.

　This world isn't that naive!

　Even though Sanzenin Arashi subtly offered to help her resolve the matter, did Sanzenin Arashi actually agree to the idea after hearing it?

　absolutely not!

　In the end, it was all just Arashi Sanzenin's wishful thinking. He thought Erina Nakiri was pitiful and that her father was too much, but in the end, it was Erina Nakiri herself who did it, and it had nothing to do with her father.

　She never considered that this matter... was actually something that could only be accomplished by two people, and that it was not something she could decide alone.

　At this point, Sanzenin Arashi was already very dissatisfied.

　The future, the things I want to do... I should know that the consequences of sleeping with this woman are not so simple.

　Now, she threw another paperback at Sanzenin Arashi's face, how could he not be angry?

　"I really didn't mean to leave you here... Why won't you believe me?" Erina Nakiri looked helpless. "Did I come to your house in the middle of the night just to vent my frustration?"

　“Okay…” Sanzenin Arashi lowered his head and tossed the paperback in his hand aside. “Here, let me show you what your ‘not on purpose’ really is.”

　boom!

　The paperback slammed against the wall, chipping off a chunk of cement the size of half a palm.

　Erina Nakiri shuddered, her face turning pale, and she dared not utter a word.

　Arashi Sanzenin bent down, picked up a small piece of cement that had been knocked off, walked up to Erina Nakiri, grabbed her hand, and stuffed the object inside.

　"..." Erina Nakiri's body trembled. "What...what are you going to do?!"

　Sanzenin Arashi glanced at her, her expression already showing some anger.

　Do you think my face is harder than a wall?

　"This……"

　"From the moment we met until you came to my house, what have I done to you? Have I hit you?"

　"without……"

　Did I insult you?

　"no no……"

　"Then why did you throw this thing at me? What makes you think I won't get angry, won't do anything to you, and will still talk to you politely?"

　"I don't know, I just..."

　Sanzenin Arashi reached out and covered her mouth, pressing her against the wall. She said calmly, "You just think that you've lived in my shadow since you were a child. Then your father sent you here, which made you very unhappy. You felt that your father betrayed you and that I was a terrible person. So you've always resented me and endured what you thought was right. Now you've unleashed all your sense of justice. So you think that I, this bad guy, shouldn't be angry, right?"

　Sanzenin Arashi made no attempt to hide his anger. "Nakiri Erina, you may have a good family and a good background, but all of that means nothing to me. Your friends and subordinates will do things for you, even drug me for your sake, but the world is not that simple. You can continue to try to provoke me, and then, after I think I've exploded, you'll be lying in a garbage dump reflecting on what happened today."
