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

Kagurazaka Ayame looked incredulous. In her memory, Dongfang Bai was the type who would slack off whenever possible and would never do anything unless it was a critical moment.

However, this time his idea was indeed excellent and could attract a large number of people to buy the exquisite notebooks, but it could also very likely lead to him breaking his signature.

You know, if a lot of people buy the exquisite copy to attend the autograph session, then Dongfang Bai will have to sign an extra copy. He, who usually likes to be lazy, actually agreed to do that!

Kagurazaka Ayame was deeply moved and suddenly felt a sense of relief. The author she was most worried about had suddenly come to his senses.

but……

How could Dongfang Bai possibly do something that would tire him out? Making money is one thing, but he would choose to sign a few hundred books and then find an opportunity to rest, trying to prolong the time as much as possible.

E.g……

Oh dear, I didn't eat breakfast, I'm so hungry I feel like fainting, I don't have the strength to sign anything...

Oh dear, I was so excited last night about being able to hold a book signing that I was so tired I fainted...

Oh dear, the author suffered heatstroke and fainted because of the heat, so they can't continue signing...

I'm sure the readers will understand me, right?

"But I always feel like something's not right..."

Kagurazaka Ayame pondered for a while, and after thinking about it carefully, she couldn't see anything wrong with it, so she could only nod in agreement.

She felt that being able to persuade Dongfang Bai to hold a book signing event was already a huge step forward, and she didn't need to ask for anything more.

"Oh, by the way, if you feel like fainting on the day of the book signing, don't worry, I've already arranged for a doctor friend to take care of you."

Ok?

Dongfang Bai was stunned. Kagurazaka Ayame's words completely surprised him. This was too comprehensive! Did they even prepare salt water or something to prevent heatstroke at the venue?!

Are authors being treated so ridiculously well these days?

"But you might be quite surprised then! You know, there are a lot of people online urging you to hold a book signing event right now. You're a representative of 'excellent authors' online!"

"There will definitely be a lot of people at the event. It's great that I can achieve such good results with my first light novel. Calling me a genius is no exaggeration."

An excellent author...?

Dongfang Bai chuckled coldly twice. Indeed, he had a very good reputation online, with the title of a young 'high school genius light novelist'.

Moreover, the manuscript was of high quality and was released quickly; the second volume was released just one week later, which truly shocked many people.

Furthermore, many people compare his hard work with that of other authors, saying things like, "Look at Mr. Yakumo, he releases a volume every week, and what about you? You're still late with your manuscript every month!"

This has led many authors to view Yakumo Shiro as a "human typing machine".

However, they were too naive. Once their own animation was adapted into a TV series, they started to live a lazy life, eating, drinking, and playing every day.

He didn't care whether the manuscript was delayed or not; even if Kagurazaka Ayame stormed into his house with a kitchen knife and knocked on the door, he would absolutely not open it.

Although editors have the right to urge you to write, if you refuse to write even at the cost of your life, there's nothing they can do, and there's no penalty for breach of contract in the contract you signed.

0 ····Requesting flowers···· ········

Ah, there is still a penalty for breach of contract. If there are no updates for two consecutive months, money will be deducted, so I started to live a lazy life from then on.

"However, your manuscript is of high quality, and with Eromanga as the illustrator, the advertising effect is indeed powerful."

So what if the advertising effect is powerful? Although Sagiri occasionally uses her Eromanga identity to do a live stream or post a tweet, Touhou Haku is completely different.

He's the only one with 50,000 to 60,000 followers who doesn't even bother to post a single tweet, leading many to suspect that his Twitter account is fake.

"Yoshi! If the second volume sells well, I'll treat you to drinks!"

"No, I'm still a minor."

Dongfang Bai rejected Kagurazaka Ayame's invitation without hesitation. He had no interest in cigarettes or alcohol, while the editor was the type who drank frequently.

"No way, you'll have to come to the Dengeki Bunko light novel authors' annual party in a while. What if someone tries to toast you then?"

"Then I'll drink juice instead."

Dongfang Bai didn't care at all. After all, he hadn't drunk much alcohol in either of his two lifetimes. Besides, he had almost died from drinking in this parallel world, so his body subconsciously had a psychological aversion to alcohol...

"Well, I have to tell you something, you know? There will be a lot of lovely female writers at the writers' annual meeting, and there's also a really outstanding new female writer whose achievements are almost catching up with yours!"

Female writers? Dongfang Bai thought about it carefully and realized that all the writers he knew seemed to be girls, whether they were illustrators or light novel authors.

Female writers are extremely rare, but none of the writers I know have male partners.

Whether it's the illustrators Eriri and Sagiri, or the novelists Eri and Kasumi Utako, they are all girls.

However, I met a few male writer friends in another writers' group who are particularly talkative. I guess they will be there too.

However, I'm not really interested. I'll just eat something and drink some juice in a corner, and then I'll just be invisible.

[PS: Should we add Amagi Radiant Park? If so, I'll be rushing to finish the manuscript in the next few days.]

Chapter 50 Cardiac Arrest - Fumino Furuhashi [Please subscribe automatically]

"Good morning... good morning, Dongfang Jun."

Fumino Furuhashi looked at herself with a dejected expression. She seemed to be in a very bad mood early in the morning. She simply greeted her and then looked back at the practice questions in her hands.

"Hmm? You don't seem to be feeling well today...?"

Dongfang Bai asked with some concern, then slowly stuffed his schoolbag containing textbooks into his desk, plopped down, and lazily slumped in his chair.

"Huh...? Do I look like I'm not feeling well?"

Fumino Furuhashi turned her head, and only then could Dongfang Bai see her face clearly. She looked at Dongfang Bai with great exhaustion. Her originally fair face had turned a bit bluish, and her two big eyes had almost lost their luster.

Thick dark circles hung over her eyes, and her beautiful long blue hair was a bit messy, with even a few strands sticking up.

It's hard to believe that Fumino Furuhashi, who usually takes such good care of her image, would look like this today. What could have happened to make her like this...?

"You're about to faint! Didn't you sleep at all last night?"

Looking at Fumino Furuhashi's appearance, Dongfang Bai couldn't help but ask, "What exactly did she go through to become like this?"

"Ah...? I guess I didn't get much sleep because I was reviewing my homework all night."

As Fumino Furuhashi spoke, she looked at the math workbook in front of her. Dongfang Bai glanced at it casually and noticed several obvious errors in the questions...

"But it has paid off. Look, Dongfang-kun, it's all done. Now we won't be afraid of today's test at all."

Fumino Furuhashi said that everything was 'ready,' but her slightly trembling body didn't seem to match her words at all...?

Moreover, she pointed to her workbook and showed it to Dongfang Bai, revealing so many mistakes. If she were to be told now that she had gotten several questions wrong, wouldn't that be a bad idea? Perhaps she wouldn't be able to handle the blow and would faint.

"A test? Is there a test today?"

Dongfang Bai was stunned. He had no idea about this at all. Fumino Furuhashi on the other side was also completely bewildered. How could Dongfang Bai not know about something so important...?

"Yes, it's a pretty comprehensive test. Every subject is tested, and the questions are set by Professor Kirisu..."

Kirisu-sensei set the exam. Come to think of it, didn't she say before that if she didn't want to join the club, she would have to get excellent grades in all subjects in this test?

But now I think joining the club seems pretty good. The light music club is very comfortable, so I probably won't need to get excellent grades in all subjects this time, right? I'll just take the test casually.

"Really? Oh, I didn't know that was the case..."

Dongfang Bai muttered a couple of words, then continued to rest one hand on the table, his chin propped up in a daze, leaving Fumino Furuhashi completely bewildered.

"Don't you worry at all, Dongfang-kun...?"

Fumino Furuhashi looked at Dongfang Bai with a look of horror. She originally thought that he would be anxious like her and immediately take out his book to review, but she did not expect that he would be even lazier than usual.

Because during exams, I can sleep soundly without anyone bothering me!

"It's alright, I think I can just take the test casually, it shouldn't be too difficult."

Dongfang Bai's completely indifferent attitude made Fumino Furuhashi feel as if she had seen a 'god'. Could this be the legendary student who doesn't care about exam results? But Kirisu-sensei clearly said before that he was a good student.

"Oh right, Kato, did you study last night?"

Dongfang Bai turned around and asked Kato Megumi, who was also reading a book like Furuhashi Fumino, but she was not as anxious as Kato. Her expression was very calm, as if she were leisurely and content, like a wise person.

"Yes, I read the book."

Kato Megumi seemed surprised that Dongfang Bai would ask her a question, and raised her head to answer.

"With Hui-chan looking like this, does she already have confidence in the exam?!"

No.

Kato Megumi shook her head without any hesitation when asked by Furuhashi Fumino. Actually, she was quite anxious about the exam, I guess...

Although he was very anxious inside, he didn't show it on the surface at all, and seemed to be in complete control.

Actually, her academic performance was very average. Her grades were all very average, not bad but definitely not good either. If we were to describe Kato Megumi with the word 'average', that would be the best word.

"Then why are you so calm...?"

Fumino Furuhashi was going crazy. Next to her was a guy who didn't care about the exam at all. He just came over and slumped lazily in a chair, staring blankly. Behind him was another guy who, like her, didn't have good grades, but still had a blank expression...

Does that mean there aren't others who are in a state of extreme fear like I am?

"It's okay, it's just a small test, it won't be too difficult."

Seeing Fumino Furuhashi's state, Dongfang Bai couldn't help but comfort her, but it was just talk. Since it was Kirisu Mafuyu-sensei who set the exam, it certainly wouldn't be easy.

"I can't take it anymore, I feel like my heart and lungs are going to stop...!"

Fumino Furuhashi's eyes gradually lost their luster as she stared blankly at the book. Dongfang Bai seemed to vaguely see a wisp of white, indistinct spirit about to drift away from the top of her head.

Click.

He pulled that wisp of soul back and then woke up Fumino Furuhashi.

"There's really no other way. Anyway, there's still more than an hour before the exam, so I'll review with you two."

Dongfang Bai said helplessly, "It seems that the only subject Fumino Furuhashi needs to review is math, right? Without the right review method, her current review is completely useless."

Kato Megumi, on the other hand, is more average. Dongfang Bai can only give her a 4.8. It's impossible for him to review every subject. He can only let her ask him directly if she doesn't understand something.

"Thank you so much!"

Fumino Furuhashi's eyes widened. Having Dongfang Bai help her with her studies was definitely much better than studying alone. Moreover, Megumi Kato rarely showed a surprised expression.

Her expression of surprise was actually just a slight opening of her mouth, which quickly turned into a calm one, making it impossible to discern her true thoughts.
