When Sho Kamiya walked out of the reception room, the receptionist was still smiling as she bowed to welcome him. He smiled at the receptionist and walked out of the building.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw the man who almost bumped into him when he entered the door. However, his back seemed to be even more bent than before.
Shaking his head, Shino Miyagi could only express his helplessness in this situation.
Being a manga artist was not easy, and it was not as glamorous as it looked. Only a very small number of manga artists stood at the top of the pyramid, enjoying the cheers and pursuit of everyone. Every year, they would have a large sum of money in their accounts. A famous manga could make you live a carefree life.
This was the impression that manga artists left on the world. Little did they know that in this glamorous world, there were countless 'manga artists' who had no way out. In this international metropolis, they were worried about their next meal.
If one did not have a truly resolute will, it was better not to take this path.
Of course, all of this had nothing to do with Shino Miyagi. No matter how much he lamented, it would only make him seem hypocritical.
Sho Miyagu was too busy with work and did not have the time to daydream outside. He went straight home after leaving the editorial department. This time, he took the JR train. It was too ostentatious for him to drive a sports car to meet someone in the editorial department as a new manga artist.
After returning home and sitting in front of his work desk, Shino Miyagi finally felt at home after living here for a while.
"My own home is still the most comfortable…Back then, I couldn't even afford a toilet with a year's salary. Now, I'm considered a single noble with a car and a house.”
He stood up and stretched, feeling a little sore in his back. Ever since he bought fitness equipment in the spare room at home, he had been exercising every day. This feeling of muscle soreness was expected to last for a while.
The phone on the table suddenly started to vibrate. Sho Jingu raised his eyebrows. He picked up his phone and realized that it was a LINE private message.
"Kashiko?"
Sho Miyagi slapped his head. He had been so busy drawing manga, writing novels, reading books, and working on the website that he had not spared any energy. He had even forgotten about this netizen who had helped him relieve his loneliness after transmigrating.
[Kasumi Shiko: Why hasn't the Emperor been online recently? If you let a girl take the initiative to greet you, as a man, it's really too disgraceful. I'm very worried that you'll be lonely for the rest of your life.】
When he opened the LINE and saw this sentence, a wave of imposing aura hit him. This kind of delicate and delicate question easily made him speechless.
Sho Miyagi was speechless. He had thought that the girl opposite him was as gentle as Yamato and Fuko when chatting online, but now that he saw her vicious tongue, it was really unbelievable.
[Yao: I'm sorry, Kashiko. I haven't been in contact with you. Previously, I saw that you were going to finish the new volume of your novel. I've also written some things and know that novelists need a quiet environment. I didn't dare to look for you because I was afraid of disturbing your thoughts.】
Shinku Shinkou wanted to quickly type a text on her phone. If she said that, it should be able to appease the girl's anger, right?
[Kashiko: Oh? Yaojun wrote something too?]
Seeing the change in the tone of the message, Shino Miyagi heaved a sigh of relief.
Looking at the watch on the room, he realized that it was still early. He lay on the bed and didn't mind spending some time chatting with the female netizen.
[Yao: It's just some unpresentable stuff. It can't be compared to Teacher Kashiko's book at all.] However, seeing Kashiko working so hard on the path that she was interested in, even I was a little affected. Thinking about how I had given up on my dream halfway through, I decided to persevere this time. I would definitely become a real manga artist.】
Shino Miyagi shamelessly talked about his dream on the Internet, making it sound so noble and great. What was his real dream? In fact, he would become a rich second-generation heir who didn't have to do anything. He had so much money that he couldn't spend it all, and beautiful women could come and go at his beck and call!
[Kasumiko: Manga artist? Was he the kind of uncle who lived in a small space that was less than five square meters like a mouse hole, sat in the garbage without shaving or washing his clothes, and stole the underwear of the girls next door for inspiration every day, laughing lewdly and fantasizing about XX scenes?】
[Yao: Hey hey hey! Teacher Kasumiko, are you talking about the 18 Forbidden Doujin manga? No, even the author of the 18 Forbidden Doujin manga wouldn't be like this! Are you looking down on a manga artist?】
Looking at the message on his phone, Shino Miyagi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, looking at the message sent by the netizens made him want to laugh. However, the image of Yamato and Noriko in his mind was fading away, and the appearance of the black-bellied and sharp-tongued girl began to become clear.
[Kasumiko: I'm not looking down on doujin manga artists, I'm just telling you about Yaojun's possible lifestyle in the future.】
[Yao: Thank you so much! However, it was hard to believe that such words came out of a girl's mouth.】
[Kashiko: How old is Yaojun this year?】
The other party suddenly sent a strange question.
[Yao: Sixteen, almost seventeen?】
[Kashiko: Can't you even remember your own age? Mr. 16-year-old virgin, I'm really worried about your future.】
Sho Miyagi covered his face as he lay on the bed and looked at his phone. He felt like he was being teased.
She thought about whether she should tease him back, but in the end, she gave up. After all, they were just online friends, not real friends who had known each other for a long time. It was fine if a girl teased a boy, but if he teased her back, it was very likely that the gains would not make up for the losses. He did not want to take this risk.
[Yao: Alright, let's change the topic. How's Teacher Kashiko's recent manuscript going?]】
[Kasumiko: Speaking of this, I'm getting angry. I clearly thought that my manuscript was perfect, but the editor actually returned it to me, saying that this and that would not do. The readers would not be able to stand it and would want me to change this and that. It feels like everything has changed! If he changed it like this, how could it make people feel that kind of despair and sadness! After half a month, I barely passed the editor's review. I don't care what those people think!】
It was as if a beautiful girl was flustered and exasperated in Shino Miyagi's mind. Even so, she was still so elegant.
[Yao: Well, don't say that. Those readers might become fans of Teacher Kasumishiko in the future. Besides, the editor had no choice. In order to improve the sales and let more people read it, they naturally had to ask the author in a way that was more in line with the readers 'wishes.】
[Kasumiko: A speech full of social and commercial values. Yaojun knows the editor very well?]
[Yao: Of course! Because I'm the man who's going to serialize on Shonen Jump before I turn seventeen!】
Shino Miyagi jokingly sent out this rather chuunibyou sentence.
For a moment, the phone fell silent. Kashiko did not reply. Just as Shino Miyagi thought that she was gone, the phone suddenly vibrated again.
[Kashiko: Yaojun, don't bite off more than you can chew. The road had to be taken step by step. Even if he failed once, it did not matter. He just had to get up and continue moving forward.】
She was trying to console him. In Japan, which was a big country of comics, even if Shonen Jump didn't read it, he would definitely know about it. Because of this, it was very difficult to serialize on it.
She did not think highly of Shino Miyagi, but she did not say it out loud.
Looking at this sentence, Shino Miyagi only felt warmth in his heart. Although the girl on the other end of the phone had a sharp tongue and was different from the imagined Yamato and Kisako, she was also caring in her own way.
[Yao: I understand, Kashiko!】
