I Am a Master of Light Novels in Japan

"Ms. Kashiwagi, you are here, please come to the office with me." Kagurazaka Iris came out from the editorial department, and after seeing Ying Lili, she said with a smile.

"Yes." Yinglili said after a moment of silence.

Not only the clerk department outside, but even the editorial department inside seemed to be busy preparing for something. Meetings, meetings, and work, basically no one seemed to be leisurely.

"Editor Kagurazaka, is there any major event in the company?" Ying Lili asked curiously.

"That's right, it hasn't been so lively for a long time."

Kagurazaka Iris, who was walking in front, smiled and didn't say anything in the corridor.

When she walked into the office, Kagurazaka Iris poured coffee for Eriri and sat opposite her.

"Mr. Kashiwagi, I have already read the original picture you sent me." Kagurazaka Iris said with a smile.

"Yes, where there is still need to be revised, it can be said that I will try my best to complete the revised version this morning." Ying Lili said with serious eyes.

Kagurazaka Iris was silent for a while, and said: "Actually, I have always been quite satisfied with your works. After all, as an editor, I have always felt that your painting style and artistic conception are more consistent with "Super Academy Wars", but recently I also found a problem, this is not your mistake, nor Uesugi-sensei's mistake, but a serious misjudgment in my work as an editor."

"Hey, misjudgment...Editor Kagurazaka, although I have only cooperated with you for a relatively short time, I know your work ability, otherwise Sanwa Bunko would not have given you so many excellent writers, Isn't it?" Ying Lili was slightly startled, and then asked in confusion.

Kagurazaka Iris said: "No, this is indeed my mistake, and I apologize to you for that. I have always been adhering to the principle of commercialization. The illustrations for light novels must be beautiful and generous. This is My best choice for choosing pictures. However, Mr. Uesugi came to me recently and told me that Miss Kashiwagi’s illustrations are very different from his works. I have been researching recently and confirmed my previous judgment. question."

Ying Lili's face was ugly, and she asked: "I don't understand, isn't the evaluation after publication very good, why..."

"Well, it's very good. After all, Ms. Kashiwagi is a heavyweight artist in my company's fancy. We firmly believe in this. However, light novels have always continued the traditional illustration ideas, and most of them tend to be urban, magical, and love themes. Passionate This is the first time our company is responsible for promoting the novels of the department, especially those written by Mr. Uesugi Yan. The problem caused by inexperience is: the illustrations are too static and beautiful, but it delays the reading feeling of passionate novels. " Kagurazaka Iris explained.

Ying Lili immediately understood that this is indeed the case. The illustrations of "Super City Academy" seem to be mostly static paintings, and dynamic paintings, especially the wonderful fighting illustrations, are currently not included.

Fiery novels, of course, need wonderful illustrations of fierce fighting.

Kagurazaka Iris looked at Ying Lili, and she calculated in her mind the steps to propose a replacement, and asked: "So, after a comprehensive discussion in our editorial department, I hope you can go to do illustrations for other writers' works. Composed of three promising works of urban romance..."

"Wait a moment!"

Eirisaka suddenly stretched out her hand and stopped Kagurazaka Iris's suggestion.

With disappointment and unwillingness, she said to Kagurazaka Iris: "Editor Kagurazaka, although I know that my painting style and painting skills are not mature enough, and I have made mistakes in the design of the work, but...whether Let me communicate with Mr. Uesugi, I want to continue to complete his illustrations for the fourth volume, and even follow-up stories, I want to continue to cooperate."

"...Mr. Kashiwagi, are you really planning to continue the cooperation?" Kagurazaka Ayame looked at her in surprise and asked.

Ying Lili nodded and said: "Although I am only a freshman in high school, I have always been proud of my painting, and my family also silently supported the career I chose. I secretly ran out to do my best in the illustration work. In order to add the most perfect illustration to this work, rather than choose to shrink back."

"..." Kagurazaka Iris looked at the determined Yingli Li. After thinking for a while, she took out a piece of paper and wrote down an email address.

"Okay, I understand. I won't arrange for a new illustrator to come over for the time being, but all the illustrations in the fourth volume have to be replaced, and the workload is heavy. Mr. Kashiwagi, our company will prepare the relevant compensation, but I will give you the time, You must give me a brand new illustration before next Wednesday, is that okay?"

Kagurazaka Iris asked with a faint smile.

"Forget about the compensation, I don't want to take it, but the time... next Wednesday... can't you give me more time?" Ying Lili asked in surprise.

"No, even I can't fight for it. As you can see, all employees of the company are mobilizing to work overtime, and all departments are busy. We will publish ten new works on Monday next week, two of which are expected to be ten. The popular works with tens of thousands of sales, the fifth volume of "Love Metronome", and the fourth volume of "Super City Academy", were sold at the same minute on the same day."

Kagurazaka Iris shook his head, and his expression gradually became more serious.

"..." Ying Lili didn't quite understand at first, but gradually, she understood something, and asked, "What is it?"

"Uesugi Yan and Kasumi Shiko, they will decide the winner in terms of sales next week. Our Sanhe Bunko has been hyping up this explosive event since noon yesterday."

Kagurazaka Iris blinked at Eriri, showing a wicked smile.

...

Room 405 of an apartment in Shinjuku, Tokyo.

Under the posture of Li Yan supervising from the side with a straight face, even Gabriel, the fallen angel, had to give in. She gave up two hours to read the fourth volume of almost 130,000 words, and then used it again. It took an hour to mark the modification location and opinions, and only then did Li Yan leave contentedly.

"This guy wasted three hours of Miss Ben's precious time."

Gabriel lay helplessly and tiredly on the table, talking to herself.

She looked at the closet and asked, "Winnedy, how long are you going to hide in there, that idiot has already left."

"Eh?!"

Suddenly, Vinette in the closet made a surprised sound, she hesitated for a moment before pushing the closet away, and said with a wry smile, "Well, you actually know where I'm hiding."

"Otherwise, the hem of your clothes has been caught outside all the time, and you are the one who can have the key to enter my room." Gabriel said with narrowed eyes.

"Huh, is that so... By the way, that man, what is your relationship with him?" Vinette blushed slightly and asked nervously.

Gabriel said annoyedly: "He's a writer in Room 505, please bring me the latest works to read, and ask for suggestions for improvement, really, don't you think such a guy is super troublesome? Be the same as me."

"After all, you are a bastard who will regret it at any time." Vinet said with a smile.

"..." Gabriel silently looked at this demon.

However, in the whole incident, Vinette only saw two people revising the manuscript, occasionally there was a few words without any communication. But to Vinette's surprise, Gabriel really went all out to work for that man named Li Yan once.

Vinette looked curiously at Gabriel who had already put on her tracksuit. What was the reason for the fallen Gabriel to be so attentive to change the fallen angel...

"Li Yan, I remember this name."

Looking at Gabriel whose hair gradually began to split and began to throw garbage everywhere, Vinette thought to herself.

...

Li Yan, who had received the revised comments, returned to his apartment room and devoted himself to the final sprint of writing.

"What an amazing angel, to think of all these plots... It really is clear to the bystanders, but the authorities are in the dark. This way of writing will indeed make it more exciting." Li Yan looked at the label, secretly surprised.

He considered whether to add Gabriel's name to the title of the book, or write a thank you note at the end of the book.

Suddenly, he saw the balcony inadvertently, and another piece of mysterious cloth fell onto his balcony.

"...Uh." Li Yan narrowed his eyes and sighed helplessly.

But when he went to the balcony to pick it up, he saw that it was not underwear, but a bag from a convenience store. At the same time, he smelled the smell of beer blowing from upstairs, and heard that Ying Lili, who obviously didn't know how to drink, was drinking The sound of violent coughing after drinking.

Chapter 15 The Beautiful Girl Painter Who Speaks Amazingly

In the night view of Tokyo, the night wind is slightly cold, and the galaxy is bright.

On the balcony on the sixth floor, it was enough to see a certain beautiful scenery in the sky. Ying Lili was wearing a sportswear, and her long blond hair looked messy. After she drank the third can of beer, her consciousness became a little dazed.

Today's encounter seems to be the Waterloo in her career as a painter. She was suddenly discovered by Ms. Kagurazaka Iris. Her first job was to directly serve as an illustration for the popular work "Super Academy War". She almost gave up the club activities, opportunities to participate, the release of the next work, and devoted all my energy to design illustrations for Uesugi Yan's works, but in the end, I received a complete rejection from that writer.

Ying Lili, who has always been praised as a genius by her friends and family, has become the backbone of the school's animation department since she was only in the first grade of high school. She has always been a star figure in C89 and has never suffered such setbacks. A case of beer, drink away your worries on the balcony.
