Conjuration Puppeteer

"Congratulations to Hanyu-sensei for being nominated for the light novel gold award! What a surprise! Mr. Hanyu is still very young, so this should be your first work, right? The first published work can get such a result, you Do you have any thoughts to share with everyone?"

"Hahaha... I think there are some things that you can't gain experience by relying on [sharing]."

Sitting on a chair to be interviewed was a young-looking man in his early 20s, with rare long silver hair gently draped over his shoulders, and a pair of clear blue eyes behind thin-rimmed glasses, matching his gentle The smile and hearty temperament give people a feeling of being "easy to get along with".

"Writing, especially novels, requires a certain amount of emotion, and requires a strong resonance. To make the protagonist come alive, you must first become the person in the book. You need to understand his happiness, his The pain, contradictions, and only in this way can we write sufficiently good characters.”

"Mr. Hanyu means, have you experienced everything the protagonist in the book has experienced?" the reporter asked curiously.

"Hahahahaha... how is it possible."

Hanyu Candle couldn't help laughing,

"My protagonist lost his mother since he was a child and came to live alone in the place where his father was. He was bullied and suffered a lot of pain. Although he succeeded in revenge in the end, there was a vacancy in his heart and he could only die alone. "

"And I lived with my mother and grandfather since I was a child. I have lived happily ever since I was a child, and there is no [pain]. But some things may be uncertain."

"Maybe? You mean..."

"Because the possibilities in this world are endless."

Han Yuzhu leaned back slightly, he restrained the smile on his face, and his tone finally got a little more serious,

"The stories I write are just based on my own fantasy, stories experienced by another [me] in a different parallel world. I think that the story I abbreviated may just happen to be the same as the one I experienced in countless parallel worlds. The story is exactly the same."

"Ah, but, according to what you said, the world we live in..."

"Yeah, maybe the story that happened in our world coincides with the story written by someone in another world." Hanyu Tokuro laughed again,

"But don't worry, after all, such a world may also be written by other worlds with completely consistent stories. In theory, everything is completely equal, isn't it?"

He pointed to the corner of his eyes, showing a mysterious expression,

"Maybe at this very moment, someone is watching us."

……

"So that's why you were talking nonsense to reporters at the book launch?"

The man with short brown-red hair had a somewhat helpless expression on his face.

"Let me tell you, although you can mess around normally, but this time you showed up in public. The newspapers have published words like you making a fuss. I'm afraid it will cause quite bad public opinion."

"But I didn't like that kind of activity." Hanyu Candle held his face innocently and said,

"In order to refuse this invitation, I spent a lot of effort. And I'm not lying, I really think [parallel worlds] exist."

"Really..." Oda Sakunosuke sighed,

"Well, I admit, what you said is actually quite interesting."

"That's right." Hanyu Tokuro smiled,

"Natsume-sensei also read the novel I wrote, but he gave a very special evaluation~"

"Is it Natsume-sensei?" Oda Sakunosuke was in awe, "What evaluation did he give?"

"Hmm... [well written]?"

"..."

How can this be considered a special evaluation!

"Didn't you give any other comments?" Oda Sakunosuke looked a little disappointed.

"I think it's a very special evaluation. It's not polite to a bunch of riddlers like poetry." Hanyu said.

"However, he has been very busy. I am very happy to have time to read my novel."

"That one is Mr. Natsume after all." Oda Sakunosuke said, "Both Mr. Natsume and you are worthy of respect for me. After all, you are the ones who made me break away from the port mafia. Without you, there would be no me." today."

"Just kidding, I just followed Mr. Natsume's advice and went to the port mafia to experience life. I didn't expect that I happened to meet you, so I did it." Hanyu said, "I believe in the position between us In exchange, you will make the same choice."

"Anyway, thank you."

Oda Sakunosuke raised his glass and touched the glass in Hanyu Tokuro's hand,

"In short, congratulations on the sale of your new book. Although a series of things have been reported randomly by the media, from my personal point of view, the evaluation is surprisingly good."

"The story of revenge will always be a hot topic." Hanyu said.

"Just read it as fast food literature. If Yusanjia knows that I have them, I'm afraid I will be targeted."

"They don't dare to offend Mr. Natsume, so don't worry about that."

"Hahahahahaha, yes."

Hanyu Candle lightly rubbed the cup with his fingers, "Most of the conjurers' group are dirty old guys, it's not a secret, is it?"

"The last time you went to collect data, the two conjurers who talked with us were really nice. If I remember correctly, their names are Wujo Wu and Xia Youjie, right?" Oda Sakunosuke asked.

"There will always be some special circumstances, otherwise the magic world will be over." Han Yuzhu said indifferently,

"However, according to my mother, I seem to have the blood of a conjurer. If Mr. Natsume hadn't taken me in, I don't know what would happen to me now?"

"This is a question worth thinking about, so I wrote this new story based on this thinking. It's like choosing different options when playing galgames. When the protagonist was young, he gave his childhood sweetheart a fruit. Sugar, maybe it will become like a token of love."

"Fruit candy can't be kept for a long time, right?" Oda Sakunosuke asked.

"You're not romantic at all, it's too much, Sakunosuke."

"It's just a matter of seeking truth from facts. I prefer to write more realistic novels."

Oda Sakunosuke,

"However, I am very interested in the [parallel world theory] you mentioned. According to what you said, I should have a different ending in the parallel world."

"If I hadn't met Mr. Natsume, then I might still be a mediocre killer, and I might die in a war of people with supernatural powers. If I hadn't met you, I might have fallen into a mimic In the hands of the leader, he finally died with that leader..."

"Possibilities are infinitely stretchable, and this kind of thinking may be helpful to your novel." Hanyu took a sip of coffee, and lazily said:

"So, my story must have an open ending."

"This seems to have always been what the media called criticism." Oda Sakunosuke said with emotion.

"I can't write the ending because every world will give its own ending."

He took a sip of tea and smiled,

"I'm curious, if Mr. Natsume hadn't saved me at that time, what would have happened to me? The possibilities are endless. In countless parallel worlds, there must be stories similar to the one I wrote. crashing world."

But I don't want to give him an ending, [Hanyu Tokuro] may have countless endings, but I only have one ending.

He closed the book and looked out the window with a thoughtful expression on his face.

So, what's the next story to write?
