After a while longer, it was getting late, so Shiina Mahiru left first, reminding Mochizuki not to stay up late as he still had school tomorrow.
Afterwards.
In the game group chat shared by Mochizuki, Yamada Elf, and Umaru, a message appeared.
Yōsei-sama: You two, I'm coming to Chiba.
Ai Kele's Little Tuli: Really? When?
Light Novelist Wang Yue: What are you coming for? When?
Yōsei-sama: Now, I've already arrived.
Ai Kele's Little Tuli: ?
Light Novelist Wang Yue: ?
Mochizuki guessed that this person couldn't possibly have taken a helicopter, could she? In the middle of the night, she just arrived out of the blue.
Yōsei-sama: Hehe...
Yōsei-sama: Of course, I'm here to play!
Is that not okay?
Such an impolite remark was naturally directed at Mochizuki Yo, not Umaru.
However, Yamada Elf's real purpose was certainly not just to play; she came to Chiba with a strong objective.
And she didn't just plan to play for a few days; she might be staying for a long time.
As for what she wanted to do, it was naturally impossible for her to tell Mochizuki now.
...
Ai Kele's Little Tuli: Eh... then maybe we can meet up!
Yōsei-sama: Hehe, I thought so too, I've wanted to meet you for a long time.
...
Next, Yamada Elf asked about housing.
Yōsei-sama: Where do you live? Can you recommend any places?
Ai Kele's Little Tuli: I live in an apartment with my brother.
Light Novelist Wang Yue: I also live in an apartment.
Yōsei-sama: I see, well then, I'll go buy a villa tomorrow.
As for tonight, Yamada Elf was naturally staying in a five-star hotel; how could an ordinary hotel befit her status?
Ai Kele's Little Tuli: ???
Mochizuki knew that this person wasn't short on money, but Umaru didn't; she didn't know about Yamada Elf's identity as a writer yet.
This surprised Umaru greatly; it turned out Elf was also a rich second generation? Umaru showed an expression of immense envy.
Afterwards, Mochizuki shared the purchase link for the SAO game equipment in the group chat, hoping they could team up later.
Yamada Elf stated that she had known about such a good game for a long time and had already paid in full for it.
When Umaru saw the high price of 98800 Japanese Yen, she was startled again; this was close to her expenses for a whole year.
Ai Kele's Little Tuli: Mochizuki-kun...
Ai Kele's Little Tuli: Are you a rich second generation?
Light Novelist Wang Yue: No, I'm not, I saved up by being frugal.
Yamada Elf, of course, knew Mochizuki was talking nonsense, but she naturally didn't expose him at this time; she wanted to see how long Mochizuki planned to hide his identity, and she would hide too...
As for Mochizuki, he felt that he really did save up by being frugal.
He had only paid the down payment, and there was still a large balance left to pay.
Mochizuki was already thinking that when he handed the third volume of the novel to Machida Sonoko, he really needed to hurry her up to pay him, otherwise he would be eating dirt.
And after Yamada Elf learned that Umaru currently couldn't afford the game equipment, she generously offered to give Umaru one directly.
How generous!
Finally, Umaru firmly said she didn't need it, and only then did Yamada Elf give up.
Although they were online friends with a good relationship, Umaru clearly wouldn't take such a large favor from Yamada Elf, even if Yamada Elf didn't mind.
Actually, Umaru's family's financial situation could completely afford it, but that was all her brother's salary.
On one hand, Umaru was very embarrassed to make her brother spend such a large amount, and on the other hand, which was the key point, her brother simply couldn't possibly spend that much money to buy her game equipment, even if she ranked first in her grade on the exam.
...
In the following days, some people were busy dealing with exams.
For example, May, Shiina Mahiru, Yui Yuigahama, and others.
There were also people who didn't care about exams at all and were still busy with their own matters.
For example, Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was diligently writing light novels.
Mochizuki was naturally no exception.
This volume would be a small turning point for Natsuki Subaru in Roswaal's territory.
As mentioned earlier, Natsuki Subaru, who was stabbed by the huntress, arrived at Roswaal's mansion.
After waking up, he met the incredibly cute Oni twin sisters.
However, Natsuki Subaru kept repeating this waking scene, which meant he had died without realizing it...
In this volume, the culprits who harmed Natsuki Subaru several times would be revealed.
And new characters would appear.
Also, finally, how Natsuki Subaru would successfully overcome this crisis event and ultimately gain everyone's trust.
While Mochizuki was diligently creating.
Machida Sonoko at the Undead River Publishing building.
She was also not idle; she was even swamped with various official duties and had no time to rest at all.
She even had to go on a business trip today.
But now, another troublesome person had appeared before her, and this person had been tormenting her back and forth for several days; she was truly patient.
Machida Sonoko was thinking about how to get rid of the person in front of her.
This person in front of Machida Sonoko.
Wasn't it Yamada Elf, who had only come to Chiba a few days ago!
She was wearing a cute pink Lolita dress.
She had eye-catching blonde hair, slightly curled, with a red bow on top of her head.
Coupled with her tone of voice.
She gave off the impression of a young lady from a wealthy family, but Yamada Elf was indeed a young lady from a wealthy family.
At this moment, even though Machida Sonoko was already sighing with her hand on her forehead because of her.
Yamada Elf was still chattering incessantly.
Machida Sonoko: How did this incredibly rude little brat end up coming here? Shouldn't this person be at FULLDRIVE Publishing in Tokyo?
Ah, what a troublesome person...
She's more troublesome than an elementary school student!
I need to quickly deal with her, and then I have to go see Chizumura Masashi sensei; that's an opportunity I fought hard to get!
Machida Sonoko, who had good professional ethics, still had to properly host the other party, even if she was an author from a rival publishing house, now that she had come to her territory.
Moreover, Machida Sonoko wouldn't bother arguing with Yamada Elf, who was a minor.
"Speaking of which, what have you decided?"
"Machida Editor, I'm really sincere!"
Look, I've already been here for several days!"
Machida Sonoko: ...So you know you've been here for several days!
"Please, quickly give me Eromanga-sensei's contact information and address!"
"Eromanga-sensei, paired with me, we will become the most brilliant duo in the light novel world!"
The most dazzling existence..."
"I am the savior of the future light novel world!"
"As long as you give me her contact information and address, I will leave immediately..."
"Feel free to name any conditions."
