What You Want For Nothing
Chiyoda District, Tokyo
The top floor of the publishing house with a height of thirty-three floors
On this floor, there is only one office that includes the bedroom, study, kitchen, living room and other functions. Functionally, it is more like a large apartment than an office.
Originally, the purpose of remodeling this floor was to use it as a rest and office place for Chairman Yu.
Because it is a tribute to the ‘Devil King’, under the arrangement of the Beijing Four Family, the furniture and facilities in this office are even more luxurious than the royal family’s ration.
However, so far, Yu has only lived here once, so this floor is closed all year round.
But now, this floor is occupied by a ‘guardian’.
“…What, do you want me to find an illustrator?” Kagurazaka Iris sat sideways on the desk in the chairman’s room and processed the documents, while holding the phone between his shoulders and head, he said in a rather surprised tone.
[You are most familiar with this aspect, aren’t you? ] A calm voice came from the phone.
“I always feel that this job is not easy to do. You must have ‘special’ requirements for the illustrator, right?” Kagurazaka Iris raised his brows and said with twitching corners of his mouth.
[Pretty, virginal, kind-hearted…] A malicious voice came out of the phone.
“Ha, are you looking for an illustrator or a wife? Besides, there are fewer female illustrators in Japan than ‘pandas’. You want me to find a ghost?” Kagurazaka Iris took a deep breath , suddenly reached out and grabbed the phone, held it in front of him and growled frantically.
In the Izumi house, Yu moved the phone to a distance with a calm face. He had expected the dissatisfaction with Kagurazaka Iris.
After all, he played with him all night last night, tried countless positions against his will, and had to endure the pain of breaking me in the morning, because he was busy with his new book, so he didn’t have any grievances, that’s a strange thing.
[The key to my office seems to be missing in the morning? ] A voice with a faint smile came from the phone.
Kagurazaka Iris resisted the urge to drop the phone, gritted her teeth and said bitterly. “Playing with me, you don’t even give me an office space? You have to pay for social assistance!”
【Are you worth the price of an office? 】Yu said in surprise.
Kagurazaka Iris was slightly taken aback, looking around at the antique furniture costing billions of dollars, her expression eased. “I have to say, I like to hear this kind of love story.”
“Well, I’ll try my best. If I can’t finish it, don’t blame me.” Kagurazaka Iris simply hung up the phone, covered her hot cheeks, and stared at the phone in a daze.
“Congratulations, Ms. Kagurazaka, oh, I should change my name to Your Highness Princess.” A smiling voice came from the sofa in front of the desk.
“Oh, don’t mention Mr. Amakasu, who knew it would turn out like this, originally I just regarded him as my younger brother.” Kagurazaka Iris leaned back slightly, leaning on the back of the engineering chair, facing the sofa as if going to work The young man of the ethnic group sighed helplessly.
“Aiya, with your current status, you can just call me Amakasu Touma directly.” Amakasu Touma said in a flattering tone with a signature smirk on his face.
“Hey, hey, when we met a few days ago, the business-like tone is fine. Your voice sounds very shocking.” Hearing Amakasu Touma’s flattering voice that made people feel uncomfortable all over , Kagurazaka Iris said with a slightly twitched corner of his mouth, with a strange expression.
“Oh, I’m really sorry, Ms. Kagurazaka.” The flattery on Amakasu Touma’s face instantly dissipated, and the usual smirk resumed.
“Hey, you heard what the devil said just now. If there is someone to choose, please report to me in the near future. It would be better for the illustrator to take office within seven days.” Kagurazaka Iris put the phone on the office and shrugged shrugged.
“Uh, I’m going to ask whether the women of this generation of aristocratic families are qualifiedeligible candidates. “As soon as the words fell, Touma Amakasu’s figure disappeared from the office.
“Tsk, there are so many requests, and I don’t know if I can find it or not.” Kagurazaka Iris looked at the disappearing back of Touma Amakasu and pouted.
After leaning on the chair and pondering for a while, Kagurazaka Ayame sighed, picked up the phone, and dialed a number. “MISS Ericsson? Yes, I’m Kagurazaka.”
*****
London, England
The National Gallery in Trafalgar Square.
“Your Highness Princess, are you planning to come here to find a so-called light novel illustrator?” The tall white woman pushed her glasses, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
At the end, she added another sentence. “And, it’s still one o’clock in the morning.”
At this moment, a gust of breeze blew past, blowing away the motion that blocked the moonlight, allowing the bright moonlight to benefit the earth.
A cold radiance shone on Princess Alice’s body, and her waist-length blond hair glowed faintly in the moonlight. However, this beautiful scene was destroyed by the deep tiredness on the girl’s face.
“I don’t want to either. When I heard that you needed an illustrator, I came here with a fever. Oops, what if I have dark circles under my eyes.” Alice held a small mirror in her hand and held her cheek in a panic. Check out the corner of your eye.
“That Demon King, who can be called the witch’s killer, really did a good thing.” Ericsson pushed his glasses and said with some schadenfreude.
“Alas! Which king’s bloodline is really bad.” Alice put away the small mirror and sighed deeply with a helpless expression on her face.
“Then, Her Royal Highness, what is the purpose of coming to the National Art Museum in the middle of the night?” Ericsson said with some doubts.
“Just come with me.” With her eyes bent into crescent shapes, Alice chuckled and dragged Ericsson into the art gallery.
After turning a few corners, Alice stood at the door of a room, snickering and using magic to open a door.
Beige lights emanated from the room. In the center of the piles of ink paintings, a blond girl was focusing on drawing on the drawing board in front of her.
“Xiao Zhenbai~~~” Alice floated behind the blond girl, hugged the girl’s willow-like waist in a funny way, and blew lightly on the girl’s ear.
Shiina Mashiro: “…”
Alice, who didn’t get a response for a while, didn’t get angry. After all, she had the personality of Shiina Mashiro, who was called the “Flower of Art” in the British Empire, and she knew it very well.
Alice raised her fair and delicate little hand, pulled up the thin white shirt on Shiina Mashiro’s body, probed into it, and said with a smirk. “Let my sister see how Xiao Zhenbai is developing?”
Boom—!
Ericsson shook his red right hand and said with a cold face. “Please stop such harassment, Her Royal Highness.”
“That’s too much… MISS Ericsson, you are fired, fired!!!” Alice covered her head, squatted on the ground, looked at Ericsson with tears in her eyes, and said angrily.
Gada—!
As the last stroke fell, Shiina Mashiro looked at the vivid sunflowers on the drawing board, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he turned around.
At this moment, she saw Alice squatting beside her, her little head tilted slightly, and a confused look appeared on her face, as if she was wondering why there was another person beside her.
“Well, the painting is over? Mashiro.” Alice stood up, grabbed Shiina Mashiro’s soft and tender little hand softly, and said softly.
“Alice…?”
Like a cloud that cannot be captured, the ethereal voice slowly sounded.
“Hey, Xiao Zhenbai, I heard that you were grounded by your grandfather because you wanted to be a cartoonist?” Alice showed an indignant expression of the same enemy.
Shiina Mashiro nodded lightly, as if the grounded girl that Alice was talking about wasn’t her, she still maintained her calm face and silently watched Alice.
“Hey, I have a way to get rid of your grandfather’s entanglement now!” After speaking, looking at the ethereal girl in front of her, Alice’s heart inexplicably flashed a trace of guilt. She always felt that she seemed to be taking away the childhood in front of her. Friends, you are pushing into the fire pit.
Shiina Mashiro’s eyes widened slightly.
