Crossover Anime: The Heroine's Savior in the Other World

Therefore, Kitahara Sosuke knew very well that Aki Tomoya's invitation to join the club was definitely not due to any protagonist's halo or so-called programming talent.

"Why?" Aki Tomoya asked anxiously. "I heard that Kitahara-kun was involved with some otaku culture in his first year of high school, right? Making a game together would be great, wouldn't it?"

"Yes, I do have the idea of ​​making games, but I feel that Aki's club doesn't seem to have the ability to do so."

Kitahara Sosuke smiled and waited quietly for the other party to gradually reveal his true intentions.

"How could that be! Kitahara-kun, look, we have the industry's... uh, the art club's ace Eriri as the illustrator, and the scriptwriter is Kasumigaoka-senpai, who is also the famous light novel author Kasumigaoka-sensei. Our club is very strong."

"Ethics-kun!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha secretly stomped on Aki Tomoya's foot under the table, seemingly very unhappy that Aki Tomoya had revealed her secrets. Aki Tomoya could only return an apologetic look.

"Furthermore, if Kitahara joins, the club will have five members, and we won't need to operate under the name of the hobby club anymore. We can apply for club funding and an activity room."

"Five people is just the minimum requirement. Does Aki-kun think that meeting the minimum standard will make the student council and the school let him through?"

"If it were Kitahara-kun, perhaps... after all..."

Aki Tomoya sat in his seat, somewhat unwilling, muttering to himself.

"Star Moon Maple"

Kitahara Sosuke clearly caught the name that Aki Tomoya had vaguely mentioned.

Kitahara Sosuke quickly saw through Aki Tomoya's little scheme. He'd probably been harboring these thoughts ever since he lent the key to Kato before leaving the classroom yesterday.

Keys to the activity room aren't easy to borrow, otherwise Aki Tomoya would have already gone to great lengths to apply for one for his club. Besides, someone like him has almost no influence in the student council.

So Kitahara Sousuke piqued his interest; "There's a way to get the key to the activity room," and he thought that he might just end up being labeled as such.

Furthermore, Kato Megumi inadvertently mentioned that Kitahara Sosuke might design game programs, which perfectly suited their club's needs.

Even if it's not today, Aki Tomoya will definitely try to contact me in a few days.

However, a big news broke this morning. Kitahara Sosuke couldn't believe that Aki Tomoya, a student at Toyonosaki Academy, was unaware of the popularity of the post.

"Hoshizuki Kaede, Hoshizuki Rin, and Kitahara Sousuke?"

Aki Tomoya didn't care whether the post was true, as they said, that Kitahara Sosuke was dating both the Hoshizuki and Hoshizuki sisters at the same time.

What he was concerned about was that Kitahara Sousuke and Hoshizuki Kaede had a very close relationship.

Everyone knows Xingyue Feng. She joined the student council in her first year and quickly rose to a leadership position due to her outstanding abilities. This year, she is also a strong candidate for president and vice president.

So it was incredibly easy for Kitahara Sosuke to borrow the key to the spare activity room. It made perfect sense, and Aki Tomoya felt that's exactly how things should be.

He was getting restless.

He wanted to invite Kitahara Sousuke to join his club, not only because he needed someone to be in charge of the game programming, but more importantly, because with Kitahara Sousuke, his club's development would be much smoother.

Eriri was the most suitable candidate, of course. She was beautiful and a classmate of Kitahara Sosuke in their first year. No boy would refuse her invitation, right? Unfortunately, Eriri was unwilling.

So, as a last resort, he had to ask Kato for help. He wanted his club to grow and expand, so Kitahara Sousuke was now sitting in front of Aki Tomoya.

It's that simple.

Chapter Twenty-Four: Straight Hook Fishing

"Don't be so disappointed, Aki-kun."

Kitahara Sousuke smiled and calmly picked up the coffee the waiter had just brought and took a sip.

"Although I don't plan to join the Blessing Software fan circle, I would like to collaborate with your circle if possible."

"cooperate?"

"Yes, collaboration. Actually, I also really like galame games and have the intention of making my own game. However, unlike Aki-kun, I want to make a more commercially viable work."

"Hmm? Is there a difference?"

Aki Tomoya was a little confused. Since everyone wants to make games, why don't you join my club?

“Ethics-kun, simply put, is about making money,” Kasumigaoka Utaha explained from the side.

"Yes, my purpose in making games is to make money."

Kitahara Sousuke nodded.

"Kitahara-kun, what you're doing is wrong. How can something as sacred as creating the world's best bishoujo game be mixed up with making money?"

Aki Tomoya seriously criticized, "You are insulting the beauty of the two-dimensional world."

Is this guy genuinely stupid or just pretending? Kitahara Sousuke really wanted to peel off his mask right there and see what kind of face was underneath.

"In that case, let's do it this way."

Kitahara Sosuke took his laptop out of his bag, clicked the mouse a few times to open a file, and then turned the screen towards Kasumigaoka Utaha and the other two.

"I want you to take a look at this."

Then, Kitahara Sosuke turned his head, a slightly apologetic smile on his face, and said to Kato:

"Oh, by the way, Kato-kun, there's only one computer, and it's not very comfortable to watch them all together. Can I send you a separate copy on Line?"

"Yeah, okay."

Kato nodded slightly in agreement and naturally exchanged Line and email addresses with Kitahara Sosuke.

"this is……"

Kasumigaoka Utaha wasn't initially paying much attention to what Kitahara Sosuke had brought out; she was only attending the event as a member of the club. However, after just one glance at the text on the screen, she couldn't take her eyes off it.

"It was the game script outline I wrote."

Kitahara Sosuke did not disturb them, and quietly waited for the three people opposite him to browse through the script outline he had written.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's sudden change in attitude also aroused Eriri's curiosity. She leaned closer to see what kind of script it was, and once she started looking, she couldn't take her eyes off it.

What Kitahara Sosuke gave them was nothing other than the game's story outline for "White Album 2," which he had initially written based on his memories.

The reason for choosing this game is simple: it's because of Touma Kazusa. Touma Kazusa exists in this world, so the game *White Album 2* definitely won't exist in this world.

Just like with Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri, you can't find the novel and anime of "Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend" online; with Hoshizuki Kaede and Hoshizuki Rin, there is no "Kaede and Rin" manga series.

Damn it, the industry is losing big time!

Kasumigaoka Utaha read it very carefully, extremely carefully. Although the outline was written very roughly, with less than 10,000 words in total and many details were not described, it did not prevent Kasumigaoka Utaha from conceiving a beautiful story from it.

As a light novel author, she was well aware of the energy contained in this story. Although her writing skills were limited and many emotionally charged parts were not fully developed, it is truly an excellent story.

Her thighs, encased in black pantyhose, began to twitch restlessly under the table—a small movement Kasumigaoka Utaha exhibited when she was highly focused or agitated.

She unconsciously began to compare her own work, "Love Metronome," with this simple story. Her own work was far more complete, and her writing style was far superior to that of the author of the current document.

But she had to admit she lost. She felt that if a light novel author of similar skill had perfected the work, it would have been much more successful than her "Love Metronome".

"how do you feel?"

Kitahara Sosuke's calm and collected voice interrupted the thoughts of the three people opposite him.

"A wonderful piece of work..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't help but praise it. Eriri, sitting next to her, nodded in agreement. She was also a hidden hardcore otaku, and she could easily distinguish between good and bad works.

"Aki-kun, how about I use this script as investment, and we work together to make it the best visual novel?"

"No, absolutely not!"

Still immersed in the shock of "White Album 2", Aki Tomoya heard this sentence and suddenly jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, loudly refusing.

"Lun Ye..."

Eriri cautiously tugged at the other person's clothes, not understanding why Tomoya was suddenly so agitated.

"I'm sorry..." Aki Tomoya came to his senses and hurriedly apologized to the people present.

"Kitahara-kun, your script is excellent... but it's not the game I want to make."

Aki Tomoya gritted his teeth and said.

"Hmm? What kind of game do you want to make?" Kitahara Sosuke almost burst out laughing.

"Of course, it's the best bishoujo dating game in the world."

Aki Tomoya confidently declared his intentions.

"Oh, so you think you can come up with something even better than this outline?"

"I can not."

Aki Tomoya said dejectedly.

"Then why not use this outline? We have Sawamura, the ace of the art club, as the illustrator, and Kasumigaoka-senpai to polish the script and fill in the characters. I can also handle the game programming. Maybe we can really make the best visual novel game."

As he spoke, Kitahara Sousuke's gaze swept over Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Eriri, who were sitting opposite him. Although neither of them said it outright, they were indeed somewhat interested.

Good works and good authors/illustrators attract each other.

"I'm sorry, Kitahara-kun, but I still can't accept your suggestion."

Aki Tomoya gritted his teeth, his hands clenched into fists on his thighs.

"I find it strange. If Aki could achieve the dream she keeps talking about by working with me, why would she refuse me?"

Kitahara Sosuke's smile grew increasingly amused. "That's a shame, but it's alright. Even if we can't collaborate with your club, there are other ways, aren't there?"

As Kitahara Sousuke spoke, he turned his gaze to Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Eriri, who were still engrossed in the script outline for "White Album 2".

"So, senior, Sawamura-kun, are you interested in collaborating with me?"

Chapter Twenty-Five: Poaching from the Founder

"boom!"

Aki Tomoya's fist slammed heavily on the table. His black-rimmed glasses reflected the light, obscuring his eyes behind the lenses, but Kitahara Sosuke knew without looking that those eyes were now filled with anger and unseen panic.

"Kitahara-kun, what... do you mean by this?"
