The author of the depressing comic book series makes the heroine cry

When Eriri was about to blow herself up, Xia Qiu gave Eriri an exam, and after reporting the painting requirements of the heroine Miyazono Kaoru to Eriri one by one, Xia Qiu also left Akihabara.

It's just that in addition to teacher Shizuka Hiratsuka and editor Ayame, my line also has my first friend.

It's really rare that my empty line number can have my first friend. Shizukaai and Ayame certainly don't count, one is a teacher-student relationship, and the other is an editor-author relationship.

When Xia Qiu returned home, the bank account information of the mobile phone number also popped up. Xia Qiu lowered his head and opened his mobile phone to see that it was the prize money for the grand prize. It was only one million yen, and more than 30% was issued, which was also OK as an advance bonus.

And it can be seen that Dengeki Bunko cares about me very much, otherwise how could the grand prize money be paid to me in advance? It still has to wait until the release of the four lies before it will be paid to me.

"Wuhu! We are rich! We can be extravagant!"

Xia Qiu's steps just after entering the house suddenly retracted, and he planned to go to the nearby shopping malls to buy vegetables and cook, instead of eating instant lunch boxes.

As long as you know some developed countries, you will find that the price of vegetables in these countries is often ridiculously expensive. Compared with meat, it is generally related to the country's animal husbandry, and on the other hand, high-end people pursue a healthy diet.

The high price of vegetables in Neon must be because the place is small and relies on imports. In addition, Tokyo is a place where every inch of land is valuable and prices are high.

Anyway... a handful of leeks and a few eggplants cost nearly 500 yen, which is ridiculous!

After returning home, I prepared a big meal for myself for the first time in a long time. Sure enough, the food I cooked myself was delicious, worthy of the skills I had practiced for many years.

"I'm full, I'm full."

I patted my belly, and I have never felt so happy as today. While it's still early, I'll play games for a while, or write? That's something to consider later. Anyway, the Japanese light novel industry doesn't need me to write every day.

At this time, in a villa that looks very expensive and similar to a castle, Eriri quickly returned to her room with her spoils, ready to pick up the digital tablet and paintbrush to get started!

This time is related to whether she can get ashore in the future!

This made Mrs. Sawamura, who had just washed the fruit downstairs and saw her daughter coming back, a little confused.

Why is Eriri so impatient?

Cut some fruit and knocked on Eriri's door.

"Eriri, mom is coming in."

Walking in, Mrs. Sawamura saw that Eriri was very diligent, picking up the paintbrush to rush the manuscript.

Hmm~ This is not like Eriri?

Family members know their own affairs. Eriri's serious character of being late for the manuscript will not let Eriri rush to finish the manuscript as soon as she returns home. There is still some time before the nearest submission date, and Eriri almost drags it to the nearest date to submit the manuscript.

And...

Mrs. Sawamura took a closer look, wow? This style doesn't look like a book? Anyway, it's a bit pure?

No, this isn't a book? This seems to be an illustration?

Obviously, Mrs. Sawamura is also very familiar with ACG. After all, Eriri was introduced to the world by her. By the way, compared to Eriri who likes books and the like, Mrs. Sawamura personally likes BL.

It can only be said that if they are not from the same family, they will not enter the same door.

Putting the fruit plate on the table, Eriri also noticed that her mother was coming.

"Mom! Why didn't you knock on the door!"

"I knocked on the door? But our Eriri seemed to be focused on work and didn't hear it. And when you came in, you ignored me, your mother, which made me so sad~"

Mrs. Sawamura sobbed twice, pretending to be sad. This woman looks 80% similar to Eriri, and she has a unique cute style when she makes such a cute move.

"Bah, you're old, but you're still acting young."

Eri despises her mother's behavior. When she goes out, this woman likes to pretend to be her sister, and she lies that they are sisters. She's almost 40 years old, but she still likes to act young.

"Huh?"

Mrs. Sawamura's face immediately changed to a smile, and then she pinched Eriri's head with her palm.

"My dear daughter, I don't think I taught you such an uneducated thing, right?"

"Damn it!"

How scary! Really scary! This old woman!

"By the way, when did you take the illustration job? I remember you applied for a job at Dengeki Bunko? But they rejected a book illustrator like you, Mr. Hakumu Eri?"

"I don't know the guy with that name, and what do you mean I was rejected? That'sThere are no light novels suitable for me in the library, and I am not a full-time book artist. This time I am drawing illustrations for the light novel "Your Lie in April"! "

"Your Lie in April"? Sayuri Sawamura has heard a little about this light novel.

No matter how much this light novel won the Dengeki Bunko Grand Prize, and when it was decided to be published, the library began to promote it everywhere, which also let Sayuri Sawamura, who only likes BL, know that Dengeki Bunko has recently published a very good light novel.

But... can my daughter do it? Draw illustrations for a light novel with a healing label?

I always feel that this style of painting is very strange?

"Did the library and the author really decide to let you be responsible for the illustrations of this light novel?"

Obviously, Mrs. Sawamura didn't believe it.

"What! I am also a very good artist, okay! Mom, can you please not look down on me! ”

Speaking of this, Eriri's eyes were a little evasive...

"Well...well, although I'm still in the trial stage."

"That's what I said~"

"Mom!!!"

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything, come on, Eriri. "

After teasing her daughter, Sayuri Sawamura chuckled and left Eriri's room.

Sure enough, her daughter is still very cute, but she is too tsundere. What will she do when she finds a boyfriend in the future? With her personality, the man must be more tolerant to accept her tsundere.

It's inevitable~

Sayuri began to worry about Eriri's future love life.

In Eriri's room.

In order to prove herself and pass Xia Qiu's assessment! Eriri took out 100% of her energy and began to complete the illustration.

Finally, after staying up all night and revising the illustration, Eriri was finally satisfied.

Then Eriri uploaded the illustration to her mobile phone and sent it to Xia Qiu.

Then began a long wait. Although she was a master in the book world, Eriri was still a little uneasy, not knowing whether she could pass Xia Qiu's assessment.
