My anime/manga fandom can't be that lazy.

"Ah, I want Blue Mountain."

A middle-aged man who looked like a staff member came over and asked the two of them what they would like to drink with a smile. Yamada Elf immediately chose Blue Mountain without hesitation.

"...Okay, I'll have a mixed coffee then, thank you."

Dongfang Bai smiled slightly, and suddenly, whether it was his imagination or not, he felt that the eyes of the uncle in front of him lit up slightly and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"Blue Mountain coffee and blended coffee, right? I understand."

The man left immediately after speaking, leaving Dongfang Bai still somewhat confused about what was going on...

Meanwhile, Yamada Elf was looking at her phone. She secretly took a picture of Dongfang Bai's right hand, then opened Twitter, uploaded the picture, and even added a caption: 0...

[On a date with Mr. Yakumo (heart emoji), hehe~]

The fairy even added a small heart symbol after her name, which was very playful and cute. Although she said she was a female author, most people thought she was just a fat, middle-aged writer who claimed to be a girl.

The tweet had only been posted for a minute when the comments section exploded, like a beehive being blown up, with a whole bunch of people rushing out.

Posting this tweet in the afternoon when everyone is quite free is like throwing a giant torpedo into the sea, blasting up a huge number of fish at once.

[What?! A date with Yakumo Haku-sensei? I heard he's super handsome, right? Yamada, are you two that close?!]

Wait a minute, is this passage implying something? Could it be that Yamada-sensei is actually a girl?

[That's not the point, hey! Yakumo-sensei is on a date with Yamada-sensei! That's practically an open invitation, not a hint!]

The comment section below exploded with activity, but of course, Dongfang Bai and Yamada Fairy were completely unaware of this. The two of them chatted happily while waiting for their coffee to arrive.

Wait a minute!!! I think I remember this place. Isn't this Xijing District, 4.8? This lake is so iconic.

[Any friends living in Nishikyo want to contact Mr. Yakumo to follow up on his manuscript...?]

As a result, the group of netizens got more and more excited while chatting, and some even suggested going to find Dongfang Bai and Yamada Fairy. However, it was obviously not that simple. By the time they arrived, Dongfang Bai and Fairy had already left.

"Your Blue Mountain and Blend Coffee."

The staff member brought over two cups of steaming hot coffee. Dongfang Bai took a sniff; the coffee smelled wonderful, indicating that the quality of the ground coffee beans was quite good.

After all, he's the owner of Rabbit Cafe, so he knows a bit about coffee. It's a pity this isn't Akihabara, otherwise he could have taken the fairy to Rabbit Cafe to find Chino.

Dongfang Bai took a small sip of coffee, and the taste was quite good, which surprised him. He wondered if roadside coffee shops could be of such a good standard.

"How was it?"

The boss seemed eager to know Dongfang Bai's opinion, and politely stood aside to ask.

"It's pretty good."

"Really? To be honest, I'm quite confident in my coffee blending skills. I make a point of buying imported high-quality coffee beans from other places every year, and I've also been diligently training myself in blending coffee for several years..."

After Dongfang Bai took a sip, the staff and boss started boasting, while Dongfang Bai looked completely bewildered, and Yamada Elf next to him didn't understand at all...

Finally, other customers called for the owner, and the uncle left, while Dongfang Bai was completely bewildered.

The coffee tasted pretty good, but the owner talked a little too much.

"Oh right, Bai, has your fourth volume been released yet? How are the sales?"

"Well, I haven't finished writing it yet."

Dong04 Fang Bai recalled that Kagurazaka Ayame had been urging him to finish the fourth volume last week, but although he had sped up his work, he had only managed to write a few tens of thousands of words.

"Hey? You haven't finished writing yet? Have you been slacking off all month?"

"Do you even have the right to talk to me like that?!"

Yamada Elf's expression of "you're actually slacking off" really made Dongfang Bai want to complain. She's the ultimate lazy bum who hasn't even started writing until the deadline in a month, and she still has the nerve to talk about him.

"What? People sometimes finish their drafts ahead of schedule too."

Yamada Elf slightly pursed her lips, because it was a fact that she was seriously behind on her deadlines. To be honest, she only managed to finish her manuscript last month because her editor kept urging her; otherwise, she wouldn't have had any leisure time when the deadline approached.

"Speaking of which, your book sales must be pretty good, Volume 3."

"It's actually not bad, but you seem to really enjoy talking about sales figures."

Dongfang Bai recalled the sales of his third volume. It had already reached 50 copies in just one month. The total sales of his Fate volume had now exceeded two million, which was quite astonishing.

It's worth noting that even for a popular author like Fairy, her debut novel, "The Dark Fairy of Blazing Flames," only sold four or five million copies in total, and that was after a full year of success.

However, Dongfang Bai has only been around for a few months and has already reached the two million mark. According to Kagurazaka Ayame's prediction for the future, within a year, plus the popularity of the anime adaptation...

This book has a good chance of breaking the 10 million mark and becoming the next pillar of Dengeki Bunko.

"Of course! Sales volume is the fighting power of a light novel author. This lousy writer with only two million sales can't beat me with five million!"

Although Yamada Elf said this, she knew very well that if Dongfang Bai continued on this trend, he would definitely surpass her in less than a year, and she felt a little unwilling for a moment.

"Speaking of which, you're in full charge of the anime adaptation, and you also have to write a light novel, and it seems you need to prepare a new book as well. You're also in charge of the game's planning. Can you handle it?"

Yamada Fairy asked Dongfang Bai with some concern, "Although he is still very young, he might not be able to handle so many things."

"Well, I'll find some time to relax and have some fun, but why are sales increasing so fast?"

Dongfang Bai waved his hand, saying that his purpose in writing light novels was simply to make money and then slack off all day, right?! Why did it suddenly turn out like this?

What happened to the plan to just coast along and live a carefree life?!

"Your book is very interesting, and the update speed is ridiculously fast. Now, when someone mentions the industry legend, the first thing that comes to mind is 'Yakumo typewriter'."

Yamada Elf spread her hands with a helpless expression. Actually, it was all because this guy updated too quickly. Now many readers have become spoiled and are always saying things like, "Look at Yakumo-sensei."

"However! When it comes to popularity in the industry, I'm definitely still the better one!"

Yamada Elf proudly puffed out her chest. This was indeed a fact. After all, Yamada Elf was a rookie author with more than a year of experience. Even if people who liked light novels hadn't read her books, they had definitely heard of her name.

While Touhou Haku has high sales volume, most people only know Fate, and not many know Yakumo Haku. This is a matter of seniority.

"So, Miss Fairy, who's super popular, how about we go to the amusement park next?"

Dongfang Bai rested his chin on one hand and shook the amusement park ticket for two that he had inexplicably obtained. He rarely went to an amusement park with a girl.

"Hmph~ Of course I'll go!"

Yamada Fairy finished her coffee in one gulp, then stood up. Dongfang Bai also stood up after finishing his coffee, and the two quickly left the coffee shop.

However, what the two of them didn't know was that as soon as they left, readers had already found the coffee shop.

"Huh?! It's gone?"

"I'm late..."

Two girls who looked to be in high school happened to be near the coffee shop, so they ran straight over to 637, wanting to catch a glimpse of the legendary Yakumo Shiro-sensei and Yamada Elf-sensei.

Even if I can't take a photo with them, getting an autograph shouldn't be a problem, right?! Then I can happily tweet to tell others that I found Mr. Yakumo.

……

"Hum~"

Yamada Elf skipped along ahead like a lively little sprite, humming an unknown tune. It was clear she was very happy.

Dongfang Bai was right behind her, but the distance between them was about one person's width. Watching her adorable hopping and skipping, Dongfang Bai couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"What are you laughing at, you stinky white dog?"

Yamada Elf slowly turned her little head, and Dongfang Bai suddenly laughed out loud, which made her turn her head in confusion and ask.

"It's nothing, I just thought fairies are so cute."

"Varied……!?"

Although Dongfang Bai had been calling Yamada Elf cute all day, she still couldn't help but blush shyly whenever he said she was cute.

However, seeing the smile on Dongfang Bai's face, Yamada Elf knew that this guy was probably teasing her.

Damn it, I've been tricked again. I must win next time...

"Let's hurry up and go to the amusement park."

Dongfang Bai smiled slightly and pointed to the amusement park gate in front of him. It was shaped like a castle and was quite beautiful. Moreover, there were many people there.

It seems that because it's Saturday, many parents brought their children out to play, so amusement parks are usually the most crowded places, especially with children.

"Two people."

Dongfang Bai handed the double tickets in his hand to the ticket checker at the door. The ticket checker had long light brown hair tied into a single ponytail and looked at Dongfang Bai with a surprised expression.

"Hmm? Have we met somewhere before?"

"No, no, you must be mistaken."

Dongfang Bai felt that the staff member in front of him looked very familiar, so he asked her a question. She just smiled and kept shaking her head. Although it seemed a bit forced, Dongfang Bai still believed her.

Why is this person dating a different girl again today?!

Aoyama Nanami's lips twitched slightly. This seemed to be the third time she had seen this boy. The last time, he was with a very beautiful girl with a cold demeanor.

But this time she transformed into an incredibly cute young girl, like a noble lady. How come she keeps changing?!

Could this guy be one of those legendary scumbags who keeps changing girlfriends and dumping them when he gets bored?!

Damn it! I used to think this guy was handsome, had a very pleasant demeanor, and spoke very gently, but he turns out to be a complete scumbag. You really can't judge a book by its cover.

At this moment, Aoyama Nanami really wanted to remind the blonde girl next to him that this guy was a jerk.

"That……"

Yes! Is there anything else?

Aoyama Nanami frowned slightly when she saw Dongfang Bai in front of her, but smiled at him with a sunny expression, saying that it was better not to get involved with him at this time.

"Excuse me, could you please move aside?"

After the girl in front of him took the ticket he handed her, she stood there motionless like a wooden stake. Dongfang Bai wondered if there was something wrong with her.
