The depressing writer of the anime series, Xue No cried and begged for a break

Black Cat continued to flip through the manuscript.

Next.

After Kousei Arima had nowhere to escape, he responded to Kaoru's sincere plea.

Finally agreed to the ensemble.

But the competition was about to begin, so Adu and Xiaochun hurriedly sent the two to the concert hall.

The two had no running-in.

But Saint-Saëns' "Introduction and Rondo Capriccio" is a classic piece.

It has already been engraved in the memories of both of them.

In the second round of the Fujiwa Music Competition, Kousei returned to the performance stage again and performed an unfamiliar ensemble with Kaoru for the first time.

A sentence 'Saint-Saens, I have been waiting for a long time.'

The melody of Charles-Camille Saint-Saëns's "Introduction and Rondo Capriccio" began to wander in the ocean.

In the first half, the ensemble presented by the two geniuses was amazingly stable.

Everyone thinks they will advance steadily!

Until the middle.

Arima Kousei's nightmare resurfaces, and the music disappears from his ears once again...

In pain, Kousei Arima chose to give up performing.

But seeing Xiaoxun's stubborn persistence.

Xiaoxun's words of persuasion and her touching presence on the music stage.

echoed in Kousei's mind.

He found himself falling in love with this person.

So what if I can’t advance in the competition?

So what if I can’t hear any sound?

Forget Saint-Saens, forget the score, forget the judges, forget the audience...

Only Xiaoxun...

All I have to do is express my thoughts and feelings through music, show them to everyone, and show them to Xiaoxun alone...

This is a game played for her!

Kousei Arima came to his senses and broke through his inner demons!

He began to play again—

Seeing this, the black cat's breathing went from tense to calm.

But in peaceful breathing.

A strange emotion seemed to gather in her chest, which continued to sublime along with the gradually changing musical rhythm of Saint-Saëns in the text.

As the cherry blossoms spread across the venue, a mood called April permeated the manuscript text.

The whole audience was immersed in Arima's performance.

The black cat is in deep affection.

At this moment, she suddenly felt emotionally released.

Her throat tightened slightly and she actually choked slightly.

She was infected by the words...

Kousei and Kaoru's first unfamiliar ensemble.

In the end, Kousei couldn't help but feel overflowing with emotions, and he infected the entire audience with his own notes!

Although the promotion was lost due to the interruption.

But the wonderful performance afterwards.

It also earned them an invitation to the Fujiwa Music Festival.

See here——

The black cat's eyes were sore and tears were flowing, and a myriad of thoughts were running through his mind.

She wiped her tears and slowly closed the printed manuscript. She didn't plan to read any further and directly cast her recommendation vote for "Four Lies"!

As for the following content.

Of course, you have to wait until it is released and read it together with the light novel illustrations.

Black Cat turned to the front page again.

She checked the detailed information of the work and saw the column for the author's pen name.

I carefully wrote down the name: "Burning Ikaros."

Obviously a pen name.

The black cat knows the story of Icarus.

Icarus, son of Daedalus in Greek mythology.

When Ikaros and Daedalus escaped from Crete using wings made of wax and feathers, Ikaros became intoxicated with the freedom of flying and flew too high, causing the wax on his wings to melt in the sun and he fell into the water and died.

He was eventually buried on an island.

Regarding the metaphor of the story, she also remembered that her teacher said that it was about not being overconfident and warned people not to be blinded by desire.

It seems that this teacher Ikaros is a humble person.

The black cat secretly remembered the name and planned to pay more attention to it in the future.

Finally, she opened the judges' group chat, intending to chat with everyone about "Four Lies", but ended up opening LINE's special guest group chat.

The black cat immediately smiled.

After all, light novels are their specialty, so it's normal for them to discuss while reading.

But the work everyone is discussing now is not surprising:

“This book, Your Lie in April, is really something!”

"I feel like this Burning Ikaros is really going to be a big hit this time. I won't say he'll win the grand prize, but he's guaranteed to win the gold prize!"

"You're all talking about the book Your Lie in April. I haven't seen it yet. Is it really that great?"

"It's really quite intense. The visuals and emotions are so strong, especially the scene where Kousei and his mother reconciled at the Fujiwa Music Festival. When I watched it earlier, I, a tough guy, was moved to tears."

"Believe it or not, even the professional editorial team of the library will be optimistic about this book. I dare say that when the results are announced, "Four Lies" will win the championship and at least be guaranteed a gold prize!"

"I just finished watching it and I'm already kneeling! This year is really too lucky. Teacher Ikaros is guaranteed to win the gold medal? I can only say that plans have changed. Prepare for the grand prize!"

As light novel writers, they naturally love reading.

So they also like the job of judging works, even though there are some works that are not that good.

But every time they see a work of the level of "Your Lie in April", it is a satisfying feast for them.

"..."

Regarding the work "Your Lie in April".

Discussions in amateur groups are just the tip of the iceberg.

The professional reviewers of Dengeki Bunko were also extremely uneasy at this time!

……

Chapter 15, the grand prize is out, the handsome Hikigaya!

Dengeki Bunko Building, Nishi-Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo.

The judging committee is also discussing the rookie season.

"Four Lies" is mentioned quite frequently.

Evaluation form for the guest group.

They have collected them all.

After summarizing.

The final results were pretty much the same.

The number of participants this year is large, and there are many good works.

But after summarizing the guests' opinions, the main controversy arose in the list of grand prizes.

Burning Ikaros is "Your Lie in April." contributed by Saku Takagawa and "Fairy Rings of Another World" contributed by Elf Yamada.

Both works are very good and perfect.

Who will be the winner of the grand prize? This is a question.

"How about tying for the grand prize?"

"The Fairy Ring is the main volume, and The Four Lies is the supplementary volume."

"In this case, we can still get one gold award. It's a bit of a shame that the book 'Sword of Reincarnation' was only awarded silver."

“Would the original volume of The Four Lies be better?”

"No, no, no, if we arrange them horizontally, there's no problem with "Four Lies" being the main volume, but if we make "Fairy Ring" the main volume, maybe it will be able to attract more light novel talents from other libraries in the future."

"Makes sense!"

"..."

After consultation, the review committee finalized the following results:

【Grand Prize】

Original volume: "Fairy Ring"

Supplement: Your Lie in April

【Gold Award】

Main volume: "Reincarnation Demon Sword"

Supplementary Volume: The Twelve War Girls' Stories

【Silver Award】

Baccano!

……

Although they also don't know why Yamada Fairy wants to participate in Dengeki Bunko's Newcomer Award.

But they can't refuse a super writer who comes to their doorstep.

……

Although Gao Chuanshuo was very tired after coming back from the stall, he did not stay up late.

Still maintaining a good schedule and going to bed early.

The next day at half past seven.

"Saki Kawasaki, go out!"

Gao Chuanshuo knocked on the window opposite with his bamboo sword as usual.

"Hmm~"

Saki Kawasaki turned over in a daze!

He fell off the bed!

thump—

In a daze.
