I don't know if Akashi thought my request like that was a bit of a joke before, but at least after I said that, I think Akashi's attitude is more relaxed than before.It can be seen in some small details.

At the same time, the flash report of the first episode of "My Daily Battle with the Male Protagonist" came out.

The number of votes was 399, ranking first in the new series, more than 2 votes higher than No.100.

"A very good result!" Hattori editor praised, "You must know that "CROW" only had 403 votes..."

"...Mr. Yujiro, aren't you really mocking me?" I said sullenly.

"……Hey?"

"You clearly know that I want to surpass my new wife teacher..." I looked at the afro in front of me with scrutiny, and said in a unwilling tone, "I know! I will work hard!"

"...No! No! Teacher Iori, you think too much!" Hattori editor felt a little wronged, and his tone became a little aggrieved, "At that time, the first episode of "+natural" only had 302 votes..."

"So it's because the story of "+natural" is not good enough, and it's not because the new wife teacher's paintings are bad." I said lightly, "Miss Iwase is very talented, but don't you think she has become a little impetuous in recent words? She never I didn’t come here because I loved the comics industry in the first place, and it won’t last long if I continue like this.”

"Ah... um..." Editor Hattori nodded blankly, "Currently editor Tetsu Hattori is in charge of "+natural", I don't know very well... Next time I can ask my new wife-kun."

"There's no need to bother the new wife teacher because of this, I think the new wife teacher who is a painting sees this aspect better than me." I gave the name of the next chapter to the editor Hattori, "But when it comes to "+natural"...listen Are you going to animate it?"

"Well, yes. It has been confirmed, and it will probably be broadcast in April next year." Editor Hattori mentioned this and immediately thought of a new question, "By the way, Mr. Iori, the third season of "Salvation of the World" It should be coming soon, right?"

"I guess it will take some time." I smiled, "After all, it's over, and the third season of the real animation will be the next year."

"Looking at the popularity and the sales volume of BDs in the first two seasons, is it stable?" Editor Hattori said with emotion, "The BDs in the first season sold an average of [-] volumes, right? How much is it in the second season?"

"More than 8000. It's worse than the first season."

"Hey—the standard of the second season is obviously higher..."

I immediately retorted: "This can't be counted that way. Look at the famous works. Most of the high-selling BDs are abandoned houses. I am surprised that there are [-]. BONES even held a celebration party .”

"... also." Editor Hattori took my name and began to read it seriously.

After reading it, the editor Hattori put the name on the table, the expression on his face gradually became dignified, with some hesitation.

"You can speak up if you have something to say."

"Ah, I'm sorry..." Editor Hattori hesitated for a moment, spread out the name, and said, "Sensei, your manga is quite interesting, and there are plenty of laughs. In the first chapter, the core points were revealed. The next step is to focus on introducing one character in each chapter, which is also a common practice... But is it a bit too hasty to enter the different world? I feel that the connection is not natural, and it is a bit different from the outline you showed me at the beginning. "

"Did you find it too..." I also showed a distressed expression, picked up the pen and directly modified the name, "Because I was a little worried that the slow-paced daily life ahead would cause everyone to lose interest in the work, so I thought about it quickly. Click to enter the topic..."

"Mr. Iori, please don't be impatient on this point." Editor Hattori interrupted me with a serious face, and said admonishing words, "Your works have great laughs, they are not deliberately made to make people laugh, but follow the plot Shaking the burden, it has already succeeded in the point of funny comics. Because the pace is slow, it seems that there is no main line at the moment, and it will indeed lead to a slow decline in rankings, but Mr. Yizhi, you don’t have to worry that these few chapters will be cut in half, let alone you We are just in our early days, and we will have an observation period for works that are about to be cut in half, unless we can’t bring them back to life before we choose to give up... Teacher, you are clearly a person who has great confidence in yourself, why did you suddenly become impatient at this time?"

It was different from the situation when "Jin Private Salvation" was serialized at that time.At that time, I had just debuted, and I had the mentality of giving it a try. I didn't even have a complete outline at the beginning, just testing the water.But now I am full of ambitions and always think about preparing well... Did things go wrong because of thinking too much?

"..." I pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "It's my problem, sorry, I will change the name within two days."

The editor Hattori was visibly relieved: "Then I'll leave it to you!"

"Ah, and...is your assistant missing someone?"

"Well, yes. The line drawing assistant has gone to Hokkaido for family reasons." I smiled and couldn't help but sigh, "Although those people also have other people who want to fill the vacancy, considering that I am now a weekly I'm very busy and don't have time to train newcomers, so I still declined everyone's kindness..."

"...Those people? Teacher, what is your background?!"

"Huh? Mr. Yujiro, what are you thinking hahaha!"

Afterwards, after Hattori editor promised to help me keep an eye on the professional assistant, I sent him away.

As a result, in the second week, the editor Hattori brought a candidate who surprised me—Saki Kazama.

"...Little Saki?!" I was shocked, "You actually came to be an assistant... No! Your level can definitely debut directly!"

"Hmm...but I still want to come here to gain some experience..." Saki Kazama blushed slightly and scratched her head, looking a little shy, "Yes, is it better to be a professional assistant..."

"Not at all! What kind of professional assistant do you need if you are here!" This was a surprise, and I hurried forward and pulled her to sit down, "Why did you come here suddenly? I remember you went to Sophia University?"

"Hmm... Sophia University's Department of Foreign Languages." Kazama Saki replied obediently, "I need to come out to work because of something, but I don't want to work in an unfamiliar place. I just heard that Minister Iori is recruiting assistants, so I came here ..."

"..." I hesitated to speak, but finally I could only nod, "Okay! You can work here!"

It's just... Looking at the other party's trial draft, my expression gradually became serious.

"That... Kosaki."

"Yes! Please order!"

"No, no, it's not about orders..." I showed a bit of confusion on my face, "Your Twitter ID...is Aya, right?"

"..." Kazama Saki looked away, her attitude was very calm, "Minister Iori, you are Mrs. SUN who was very popular back then, right?"

"..." I was silent for a while, "How do you know?"

The other party replied weakly: "When I was in junior high school, I was the deputy minister, and I deduced it based on your usual painting style and the draft paper from that time."

Me: "...Okay! The assistant decides to be you!"

Usually I don't see that you are a cut black, Saki Kazama!

I took advantage of Kazama Saki coming to me as an assistant.

She comes from a serious academic background, has a solid foundation, and usually practice a lot, so it’s not a problem to start serialization by herself. The line drawing assistant is just a small case for her. If you practice more like me, you will soon be able to do it a few times. It's ready to go, and it's fast.Although her best thing is actually the color aspect, but we are black and white comics after all, so she has no chance to play her best part.

"Speaking of... Xiaosaki, if you are Aya, why did you say on Twitter that you may have lost your relationship?" Once the person is matched, some information can be combined into gossip, "What is possibility? "

"Hmm..." Kazama Saki showed a bit of trouble on her face, "I think I'm being too sentimental... In fact, this is one of the reasons why I came here to find a job."

"Hey? What's going on?"

"Recently, my parents said, if you didn't find a boyfriend before Guoguang found a girlfriend, you can go on a blind date with me... But there are few boys in the Department of Foreign Languages, and I don't want to go out to socialize, so I decided to come out and work."

"..." I felt that there were a lot of sloppy words, so I raised my head to look at her, "Hey? Then have you considered Tezuka? Aren't you childhood sweethearts?"

"...Huh?" Kazama Saki showed hesitation, "It's not...that... how should I put it, Guoguang feels more like my father..."

"……puff!"

"But you gave me a new way of thinking. If Guoguang doesn't have someone he likes, why don't you give it a try..."

"...Hey? Wait! Are you so rash?!"

"Well... pretend to be dating for a week, and then you can use this as an excuse not to go on a blind date!"

"..." I hesitated to speak again, and finally decided not to say anything.

This direction, if it is in the girls' manga, is the standard routine of childhood sweethearts' fake dramas!Come on, Saki!And then Tezuka should thank me, the matchmaker, if it really became a success!

This vague sense of relief, after Akashi came back, completely changed into another feeling.

When Akashi entered the room, I put down my pen and walked over to him, and helped him unbutton his scarf and coat: "Ah Zheng, did you know that the new assistant applying for the job today is Saki Kazama!"

Akashi put his hands on my waist and allowed me to move obediently. After listening to my words, he smiled: "That's pretty good. Kazama's work ability is good...Have you told Nioh about this?"

"...Huh?" I stopped moving, with a suspicious expression on my face, "What's the matter with Guan Yazhi?"

"...Huh?" Akashi was also taken aback, "Isn't Nioh chasing Kazama?"

"... Huh? Wait a minute! How do you know?"

"Because he came to ask me about a month ago how I caught up with you..."

"..." My expression gradually changed, and my tone was filled with real grief, "Seijuro, I feel a little sorry for Masaharu."

The other party frowned slightly, the strength in his hands increased a lot, and his tone became a little more serious: "Why did you say that suddenly?"

I sniffed, and said in a low voice: "I, I seem to have accidentally matched Kazama and Tezuka..."

"..." Akashi pressed my shoulder, and suggested with a serious face, "Calm down first, anyway... just pretend nothing happened."

"...Wait a minute! This is not allowed!"
