Anime Crossover: My Online Romance is Megumi Kato

Touching his chin, Yuta Kijima knew that the matter was basically settled. Although it was rare for a single book to make someone a legend, it was not uncommon. It was quite normal for a middle school student like Yuzuru to suddenly become a popular light novel author.

Chapter 104 Comrades

In conclusion, that's how the matter was settled.

Yuta Kijima was finally relieved; this matter had been on his mind for a long time.

"Alright, let's go out then, but remember to keep it a secret, especially from Yuzuru." After giving these instructions repeatedly, he led the two back to the living room.

Yuzuru is no ordinary little girl; having grown up in a special family, she is already quite mature.

Machida Sonoko was stunned when she arrived in the living room and saw two more girls walking out of the room.

"Kijima, why are all the girls here so cute?"

"Start at (one_one)——"

Instantly, a group of onlookers turned to look at Yuta Kijima.

"Ahem..." Under everyone's gaze, Yuta Kijima spoke up, "I also invited Tomoya, but he has something to do today and can't come."

"It was an accident, an accident."

No one looked away.

What could he say? He just wanted a peaceful campus life, but he never expected to have so many female friends around him.

"Knock knock, knock knock"

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Yuta Kijima immediately went to open the door, feeling incredibly grateful to Eriri.

My savior appeared at the crucial moment.

Upon opening the door, it was indeed the last person remaining—Eri Sawamura.

Today, she wasn't dressed as usual, with her blonde hair flowing and wearing black-rimmed glasses.

She must have thought she was visiting him today, because she was wearing a white shirt with a green jacket, long socks that covered her fair and straight legs, and her golden twin ponytails hung down smoothly.

"Yuta, I'm so sorry," Eriri said apologetically. "It's so hard to get up in the morning."

Her bright blue eyes were full of embarrassment. She had originally planned to come early to get the draft for Yuta Kijima, but the bed seemed to have some kind of magic in the morning, keeping her firmly bound to the bed.

I struggled until noon before my mother finally pulled me out of bed.

My mother made me dress up carefully before I left the house, which is why it's been delayed until now.

3:30 p.m.

Yuta Kijima said, "It's alright, Shiwa-senpai and the others just arrived recently. Please come in."

"What? Kasumigaoka Utaha has already arrived?" Eriri was taken aback, her delicate eyebrows furrowing.

Not good, not good.

I'm going to get mocked by that fat woman in black stockings again.

Yuta Kijima said, "Senior stayed up all night working on her manuscript and is catching up on sleep in her room now."

"Ha!" Eriri subconsciously curled up the corners of her mouth. "Looks like it's my turn."

Yuta Kijima remained silent. In a sense, these two rivals were indispensable to each other and complemented each other.

Upon entering the living room, Eriri quickly saw the group of people sitting on the sofa.

one two Three……

She silently counted in her mind. Although she already knew that Aki Tomo wouldn't come, this scene still surprised her for a moment.

Five girls in total!

Oh, right, that woman must be Xia Laofei and Yuta's editor, right...?

“This is my friend from school—Eri Sawamura,” Yuta Kijima introduced to the others present.

Eriri quickly snapped out of her daze and hurriedly flashed the smile she often wore at school: "Hello everyone, my name is Eriri Sawamura."

Kato Megumi said softly, "Good afternoon, Eriri."

Now, all the guests invited today have arrived.

Seeing Eriri's slight unease, Yuta Kijima said softly, "Why don't you chat with everyone for a while? I'll go get you some drinks."

"Okay." Eriri awkwardly flicked her twin tails and sat down next to Kato Megumi.

Of everyone present, only Kato Megumi knew her.

But then, Kato Megumi said casually, "I'll help you."

He then got up and followed Yuta Kijima into the kitchen.

Eriri panicked a little. She wasn't a talkative person, and now, facing so many strangers, she suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Hey, are you the illustrator who taught Yuta to draw manga?" Kitagawa Kaimu's eyes lit up, and she excitedly went straight to Eriri's side.

"Ah, umm." Eriri was taken aback by the sudden enthusiasm.

I didn't expect Yuta Kijima to have told her all this; hopefully, he didn't reveal the doujinshi artist's identity...

"I'm just teaching Yuta some simple drawing techniques..." Eriri said, pursing her cherry lips.

"What? Kijima is going to draw a manga! This...this..." Machida Sonoko was speechless, her mouth slightly agape in surprise when she first heard this.

Nishimiya Yuzuru sat there, not daring to say a word. If you knew that Yuta was going to write another light novel behind your back, you might explode.

“Machida-san, don’t worry.” Kitagawa Kaimu smiled, already a big fan of Kijima Yuta. “Yuta is a genius, he just draws a manga.”

She then turned to Eriri and asked, "Eriri, do you know 'Slippery Girl'?"

"Huh? Huh??"

Eriri wondered if she had misheard, her heart nearly leaping out of her chest. Wasn't this the adult game she'd played before? Are you asking me a normal question?

“This classmate…” Eriri grabbed Kitagawa Kaimu’s wrist and moved her away from the others, interrupting her before she could continue speaking: “What… what are you talking about?!”

"Hai Meng! Just call me Hai Meng."

"It's the game 'Slippery Girls'...', don't you know it?" Seeing Eriri's puzzled expression, she repeated herself.

She thought that as a "teacher" who could teach Yuta to draw comics, he should have heard of this work, and she thought she could find a fellow enthusiast.

"N-I don't know..."

Eriri's body tensed, and she stammered as she answered, her cheeks flushing slightly. What girl would ask such a question on a first meeting? If it weren't for the look on Kitagawa Kaimu's face, she would have even thought that Kijima Yuta had revealed her identity as Kashiwagi Eri to her.

"Oh... alright then." Upon hearing the result, Kitagawa Kaimu lowered her head in disappointment. "I'm sorry, Eriri, I've caused you trouble."

"It's nothing. What are you talking about?"

"It's a game..."

Seeing that Kitagawa Kaimu had recovered, Eriri breathed a sigh of relief and then asked casually, "Does Kaimu usually like playing games?"

"I wouldn't say I like it." Kitagawa Kaimu scratched his head and thought for a moment: "But I really like one of the characters. I thought Eriri was the same way."

Her favorite ACG culture covers a wide range, including some adult-oriented games featuring humiliation.

Coincidentally, Eriri herself is a top-tier doujinshi artist, specializing in humiliation-themed doujinshi.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so nervous when she heard Kitagawa Kaimu ask that question.

However, the oblivious Kitagawa Kaimu completely missed these details, assuming it was just a normal reaction from an ordinary girl hearing about the game.

Chapter 105 Still blaming me?

"I actually play some games too."

Eriri glanced at the sofa and said softly, "I wonder what games you usually like to play, Haimeng?"

"Really?" Kitagawa Kaimu exclaimed in surprise, "Eriri plays games too!"

"I like a lot of things... games, anime, I watch most kinds of things."

After saying that, Eriri realized that the girl in front of her was an ACG enthusiast no less than herself, and that their interests were quite similar. But she still pretended to be a novice and said, "Well... we can keep in touch more often in the future... and exchange ideas."

"Of course!"

After saying that, Kitagawa Kaimu happily took out his phone and added Eriri's contact information.

In the living room, Yuta Kijima and Megumi Kato came out carrying drinks.

"What are those two doing over there?" Yuta Kijima asked, looking at Eriri and her companion who were standing apart from the others.

"I don't know." Machida Sonoko took a sip of her drink and mumbled, "I vaguely heard something about something sticky...woman?"

"correct!"

"Kijima, you're actually planning to draw manga?!" Machida Sonoko suddenly remembered the news she had just heard and asked excitedly.

Yuta Kijima is now one of her most capable writers, and the fact that he wants to draw manga is a major dereliction of duty on her part as his editor.

Machida Sonoko wondered if she should follow the example of other editors and imprison Kijima Yuta to write, since she already knew his address.

“Oh, this,” Yuta Kijima explained, “Machida-san, please rest assured, I will not refuse to submit the manuscript on time.”

He paused and then said, "Drawing comics has been one of my dreams. This is just a trial run, and it's hard to say whether it will succeed."

“Hmm…” Machida Sonoko nodded.

That's not impossible, since although comics and light novels are closely related, it's practically impossible for the average person to master both.

It might just be a whim of Yuta Kijima's.

When he fails, she, the editor, will be the one to comfort the poor author.

It's not an easy task!

After thinking it over, Machida Sonoko had no other opinions, but she still reminded him, "In that case, I won't stop you, but I hope you won't neglect your work on light novels."

Kijima Yuta said warmly: "Don't worry, Machida-san."

As soon as she finished speaking, Eriri and Kitagawa Kaimu sat back down on the sofa.

How come everyone has become so close in such a short time?

Is this what girls' ability to make friends is like?
