Next, Tsuchimikado Fuyu invited Machida Wanko to lunch. During lunch, only Koi and Gabriel ate together. Machida Wanko secretly inquired about the relationship between Koi, the three of them, and Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu simply stated that Koi and the three-tailed fox were his distant cousins, that the three-tailed fox had already eaten lunch and therefore did not eat with them, and that Gabriel was someone who freeloaded from next door.

Not only did this not resolve Machida Wanko's doubts, it made her look at Tsuchimikado Fuyu even stranger. If they were just ordinary neighbors, how could the other party have a key to her house? And how could Tsuchimikado Fuyu let her freeload for nothing?

Thus, the clever Machida Wanko came to the conclusion that Tsuchimikado Fuyu liked Gabriel.

If Tsuchimikado Fuyu knew what Machida Wanko was thinking, he would be speechless. It must be said, Machida Wanko truly lives up to her reputation as a light novel editor; her imagination is quite rich.

Chapter 371 Scumbag? Girlfriend?

"Brother, welcome back... Hey, Fuyu-kun!" As they entered the Attribute Cafe, Hoshikawa Mafuyu ran over happily and called out in a sweet voice.

"Ma Dong-san, that's not very professional of you," Tsuchimikado Tou said with a laugh.

"There's nothing we can do. After all, someone said they would come to see us often, but they've only come twice in all this time. Men's words are always deceiving," Hoshikawa Mafuyu said with a resentful look.

"Haha... I was a bit busy with studying and exams the past two weeks," Tsuchimikado Fuyu chuckled and quickly explained.

Although he didn't spend much time at the Attribute Cafe, he still frequently contacted everyone on his phone. After all, they were all anime and manga fans, so they had a lot to talk about.

"Don't explain this to me, Xia Fan has been talking about you a lot lately," said Hoshikawa Mafuyu.

Upon hearing Hoshikawa Mafuyu's words, Machida Wanko looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyuyu with disdain, as if she were looking at a scumbag, a truly sinful person.

"It's just that I accidentally beat her once last time, why are you holding such a grudge?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu's lips twitched, and he said helplessly.

"Huh? What do you mean by 'accidentally won't win'?" At this moment, Hinata Kaho walked over angrily and said unhappily, "You killed me, and then you danced on my corpse. What did you mean by that? And you danced for ten minutes straight. Were you provoking me?"

"Uh..." Tsuchimikado Fuyu scratched his head awkwardly. Actually, he didn't want to be so rude, and since they were all friends, it wasn't very good to do this, but... the mysterious talisman was just too tempting, he couldn't resist!

"Humph."

"Sorry, sorry, it's my fault. How about I go to the arcade with you after get off work?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu said.

"Really!" Hyuga Kaho said excitedly, her eyes shining as she looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

She didn't have any particular feelings for Tsuchimikado Fuyu; she just wanted someone with similar skill to play games with, which made the game more enjoyable.

"Consider it an apology for last time, is that alright?"

"Don't think you can beg for my forgiveness this way, but since you've pleaded with me like this, I might consider giving you a chance."

"Don't bring your work-related traits into this. You're not really a tsundere," Tsuchimikado Fuyu retorted.

"By the way, who is this?" At this moment, Hoshikawa Mafuyu looked at Machida Wanko and asked curiously, "Could she be your girlfriend, Fuyu-kun? But even if you like older women, isn't the age gap a bit too big?"

"Eh? Girlfriend?" Hinata Kaho looked at Machida Wanko in surprise, not expecting Tsuchimikado Fuyu to be into older men!

"Don't talk nonsense! She's my editor. We're here to meet with the illustrator." Tsuchimikado Fuyu quickly stopped the two from continuing, otherwise his reputation would really be in danger.

What do you mean by "older man control"? I'm clearly in full control.

"Oh, it's just an editor!" the two women said with a sigh of regret. They thought they had uncovered some big secret, but it turned out to be just an editor, which was a bit disappointing.

"What do you mean by this?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu raised an eyebrow and said unhappily, then quickly said to Machida Wanko, "Ms. Machida, they didn't mean that, please don't mind them."

"It's alright." Machida Wanko smiled awkwardly; being misunderstood just now had indeed made her quite embarrassed.

"Hey, can you two stop flirting at the door? It's a pleasant surprise that Dongjun is here, but I'm getting jealous that you're all circling around him." Just when the atmosphere was getting a little awkward, Dino suddenly walked over in a flirtatious manner and said.

"Shut up." Hoshikawa Mado punched Dino in the stomach and said speechlessly.

"Manager, why are you out here again? Akizuki-kun will really be angry," Hinata Kaho complained. Because of the special nature of the café, there were more and more gentlemen in the store, and the kitchen was naturally getting busier and busier.

However, Dino's frequent escapades from the restaurant under the guise of conducting investigations caused Akizuki Koyo a lot of trouble, and she was so angry that she wanted to hit him many times.

"What the heck? No one from the kitchen is delivering the food, so I had to come myself," Dino muttered. This time it really wasn't his fault, even though he did have the excuse of delivering food but actually just wanted to be lazy.

However, Hyuga Kaho and Hoshikawa Mafuyu hadn't guessed Dino's thoughts and became embarrassed, saying, "Manager, then we'll leave Fuyu-kun to you. We'll go deliver the food."

After Hyuga Kaho and the other left, Dino led Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the others to a window seat. After a brief chat, they ordered their food and quickly went into the kitchen.

There were quite a few people in the store today, and it seemed to be quite popular, so Dino didn't have much time to chat with Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu didn't mind, since he had promised to go to the arcade with Hinata Kaho that evening, so they would have plenty of time to chat after get off work in the afternoon. Now, work was the priority.

What's strange is that ever since Tsuchimikado Fuyu entered the restaurant, two or three tables of girls have been staring at Tsuchimikado Fuyu and Dino. Especially when the two were chatting, the girls seemed a little excited, their faces flushed, as if they were discussing something important.

Although Tsuchimikado Fuyu could probably guess what it was, he preferred not to see it. It seems that this store attracts not only gentlemen, but also a group of girls who are quite remarkable to men.

"Is Fuyu-kun very familiar with the people at this store?" Machida Wanko asked curiously.

"Yes, I worked in the kitchen here for a short time before, but I got along well with everyone," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, this cafe feels a bit different from other cafes. It's not a traditional maid cafe, but it doesn't feel like an ordinary cafe either," Machida Wanko said.

"Because this coffee shop is a unique coffee shop, it is very different from other coffee shops."

"Attribute Cafe?"

"The staff here will play different roles to satisfy the guests' special preferences. For example, Xia Fan just now played the role of a tsundere, while Ma Dong Sang played the role of a younger sister."

"Huh! Is that so? That sounds interesting."

"It's quite interesting," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile. After regaining his memories, he knew that two formidable subordinates would be coming to this shop.

The traits of being a sadist and a cross-dresser are both impressive in many ways. However, the "older sister" trait is less exciting than these two.

"Um, am I not late?" Just as the two were chatting, a woman with silver hair and a side ponytail walked over and said apologetically.

Upon hearing this, Tsuchimikado Fuyu looked up and was immediately shocked. This was...

Chapter 372 The Little Sister Development Plan

"You...you are..." Tsuchimikado Fuyu stared in surprise at the woman in front of him. This wasn't Sagiri, this looked like...Madam!

"I am Eromanga. It's a pleasure to meet you." The other party bowed slightly and said with a smile, "You must be Teacher Tianyu!"

"Hello, nice to meet you," Tsuchimikado Fuyu quickly stood up and said.

Although I'm a little disappointed that it's not Sagiri, but... if it's Madam, doesn't that mean Sagiri is still very young? Especially since there's a high chance that Madam hasn't remarried yet, which means Sagiri hasn't become Izumi Masamune's sister yet!

Thinking about this, Tsuchimikado Fuyuki felt inexplicably excited.

Although I don't have a younger sister like in other stories, wouldn't it be even better to adopt a younger sister and raise her? Plus, I wouldn't have to worry about blood relations or anything like that—it's just too awesome!

Most importantly, at this time, although Sagiri was introverted and easily embarrassed, she had not yet experienced the accidental death of her wife and the impact of Izumi Kyoka forcibly taking her out of the room. She was not the shut-in who was afraid to leave her room later.

Therefore, this is the best time to cultivate Sagiri.

Of course, these were all just Tsuchimikado Fuyu's assumptions. Putting aside whether his wife had married Izumi Kotetsu or not, even if the two were complete strangers, why would he let his precious daughter recognize him as her brother?

As for the possibility that his wife hasn't divorced him yet, let's not consider that. Anyway, if Sagiri's father is still the same person from the anime, he will divorce her sooner or later because he can't stand her drawing erotic illustrations.

"Fuyu-kun, Fuyu-kun, are you even listening to me?" Machida Wanko called out helplessly just as Tsuchimikado Fuyu was daydreaming.

When Tsuchimikado Fuyu came to his senses, he saw his wife looking at him awkwardly. Machida Wanko sighed speechlessly and said, "Although Fuyu-kun is indeed at this age and can't resist mature older women, Eromanga-sensei already has a daughter. Fuyu-kun, you should find another target."

"Ms. Machida, what are you saying?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu's face immediately turned red, and he hurriedly explained, "I'm just too surprised. After all, it's really surprising that the illustrator who can come up with such a name and draw such sexy illustrations is a beautiful woman."

Of course, this was just an excuse that Tsuchimikado Fuyu came up with on the spot. After all, for someone who is familiar with the plot of anime, there are illustrators like this, such as Sagiri, or a certain blonde loser.

"Oh dear, talking about beautiful women is still a bit embarrassing. Teacher Tianyu is exaggerating too much," the lady said shyly.

"That reason is barely acceptable. After all, I was quite shocked when I found out Eromanga-sensei's true identity. I always thought he was a deadbeat otaku," Machida Wanko nodded in agreement.

The three joked around for a while and gradually became familiar with each other. At this moment, Teacher Eromanga took out two sketches and handed them to Tsuchimikado Fuyu. "These are two illustrations I drew before I came. Because of the rush, I could only roughly apply the base color. Teacher Tianyu, please take a look and see if it's okay."

The two drawings depict the protagonist and his childhood sweetheart, both characters who appear in the first volume.

Moreover, the characters are only colored in blocks of color, but the line art is still quite good, comparable to the illustrations by Huayu. Although the style has definitely changed, the lines in Huayu's illustrations are softer.

However, the younger sister seems a bit lewd, while the main character seems a bit gay.

"Well... the artwork is indeed very good, as expected of Eromanga-sensei. Moreover, the art style hasn't changed much, so it won't have any impact on fans. On the contrary, because of Eromanga-sensei's large fan base, the second volume might even become a bestseller."

But the only problem is... why does this character look a bit too sexy? Battle Through the Heavens isn't a mainstream harem novel. Although there is a female lead, she doesn't take up too much space. The main focus is on fighting monsters, leveling up, and showing off.

If the illustrations are too erotic, it might mislead readers. Not only could it deter some readers before they even start reading, but it could also negatively impact sales of later volumes because they didn't see the fan service they wanted. That would be quite troublesome.

Upon hearing Tsuchimikado Fuyu's analysis, Machida Wanko nodded seriously. It seemed that Teacher Tianyu clearly knew what kind of illustrations he wanted.

Since that's the case, I'll just wait and see. I don't need to worry about the illustrations anymore.

"If that's the case, then it is indeed troublesome." The wife also thought seriously. "I'm sorry, I thought that Battle Through the Heavens was also a mainstream harem story, so I caused a misunderstanding."

However, to be honest, I'm still a bit unfamiliar with the normal art style. Could you give me some time so I can go back and try it out? I'll give you the artwork tomorrow, Teacher Tianyu.

"No problem, anyway... I haven't even started writing the second volume yet, so I can catch up." Tsuchimikado Fuyu nodded and said apologetically.

"Tianyu-sensei, how dare you say that?" Machida Wanko said resentfully to Tsuchimikado Fuyu. Normally, the manuscript should be collected by now, and the illustrator should have started working while we were proofreading.

"Then, could you tell me about the main content of the second volume? I might as well try to do the illustrations for the second volume directly."

Eromanga was no newcomer, and upon hearing Tsuchimikado Fuyu's words, he immediately realized that it was better to wait until Tsuchimikado Fuyu submitted his manuscript before rushing to meet deadlines.

I might as well take advantage of these few days when I have some free time and slowly draw the illustrations.

This way, by the time Tsuchimikado Fuyu submits his manuscript, the illustration will be finished, without affecting its quality or compromising its overall effect.

"In the second volume, the protagonist gains the dragon's approval and becomes a dragon knight. He then unexpectedly saves an elven princess, who takes him to the elven realm to repay his kindness and he receives elven baptism."

Of course, there were bound to be twists and turns along the way, but I won't go into details because I haven't figured it out yet, and I don't know how far I'll get from this point on.

"As for the illustrations, I'll probably draw one of a dragon knight and one of an elf princess. For the cover, I'll just draw a roaring dragon. As for the others, I can't be sure yet since they haven't been written out," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said.

"A genius writer is really capricious, but at least you, Teacher Tianyu, have an outline and won't get writer's block, otherwise I would really be sad," Machida Wanzi sighed.

"Hehe, putting everything else aside, I've already thought of the main plot outline for Battle Through the Heavens. I just need to fill in the details," Tsuchimikado Tou said with a smile.

"I understand. Now let's talk about the specific requirements for these three illustrations. I'll draw the Dragon Knight one tonight. If you're satisfied, Mr. Tianyu, please take good care of me."

Professor Eromanga nodded, took out a notebook, and looked intently at Tsuchimikado Fuyu, preparing to take notes.

Tsuchimikado Fuyuya also explained the general requirements for the character in detail, "The main character will definitely remain the same, and the dragon must be a black dragon, with the main skills being..."

Chapter 372 How wonderful!

"Ah, finally off work, I'm exhausted." Hinata Kaho finished sweeping the floor, put the broom aside, slumped into the chair next to Tsuchimikado Fuyu, and sighed while leaning on the table.

"You've worked hard," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile. "Business seems to be doing well lately."
