Onmyoji who mingles in the world of anime

"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the Battle Through the Heavens fan meeting. Although only two volumes of Battle Through the Heavens have been released so far, thanks to everyone's support, it has surpassed one million in sales in less than two months. I am truly grateful to everyone..."

Soon, Machida Wanko's voice could be heard from outside.

That's right, the host of today's fan meeting is Machida Wanko.

"...Now, let's welcome Tianyu, the author of Battle Through the Heavens, and Eromanga, the illustrator of the second volume of Battle Through the Heavens."

The official speech ended quickly, and Tsuchimikado Fuyu and Eromanga-sensei, who had been waiting at the entrance of the venue, walked onto the stage when they heard Machida Wanko call their names.

Backstage, he took the microphone handed to him by a staff member and walked out.

When the crowd saw the two appear, they all cheered.

"Ah, is this Teacher Tianyu? So cute!"

"Eromanga-sensei is still so beautiful! How can such a stunning beauty draw such captivating illustrations!"

"The only pity is that the illustrations of Battle Through the Heavens are too formal. They can only make people feel excited, but not their blood boil."

"..."

As per the rehearsal, when Tsuchimikado Fuyu and Machida Wanko walked to the center of the stage, Tsuchimikado Fuyu began to give his remarks, followed by Eromanga-sensei's remarks.

After the two finished their speeches, everyone applauded.

Then came the Q&A session with fans, which took a bit longer, lasting a full hour before Tsuchimikado and Fuyumi were finally let off the hook.

Although Tsuchimikado Fuyu did not answer any of the questions about the subsequent plot, some other questions were enough to satisfy the readers.

After the Q&A session with fans, it's free time. Everyone can gather together to discuss the plot or grab some snacks and desserts from the food station.

The fan meeting will last for a total of three hours, until noon.

The first hour and a half had already been spent, followed by half an hour of free time, and the last hour was for taking photos. After everyone took a group photo in groups, they could line up to take three or four photos with Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

To be honest, the time was quite tight. If Tsuchimikado Fuyu had known earlier that he wouldn't have much free time, he wouldn't have brought the game console. There was no time to play at all!

Of course, this only applies when there is no mist.

Although he himself didn't get to play the game console, it at least made some contribution.

While waiting backstage, Sagiri, out of boredom, followed Tsuchimikado Fuyu's instructions and switched to a single-player game cartridge, then slowly started playing according to the tutorial.

Just as Tsuchimikado Tou and Eromanga Sensei returned backstage, someone knocked on the door.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu opened the door, and there stood Kasumigaoka Utaha, Kuroneko, Yamada Elf, and Aki Tomoya.

"Why are you here too?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu asked Yamada Elf curiously.

The other three, Tsuchimikado Fuyu, knew they were coming. After all, apart from Kuroneko, who had asked him for the invitations, Kasumigaoka Utaha and Aki Tomoya had their invitations sent by Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

However, he really didn't expect Yamada Elf to come. After all, they had only met once and weren't very familiar with each other. Even if Yamada Elf was easy to get along with, she wouldn't have come on her own initiative without being invited!

"You still dare to say that? Why didn't you send me an invitation? If I hadn't been lucky enough to snag a ticket, I would have almost gone to confront that wretched editor of yours," Yamada Elf said unhappily.

"They came without being invited. Kids these days are really something," Kasumigaoka Utaha said, shaking her head.

"That's right. Although I don't know who you are, since you know each other but weren't invited, it means you're not familiar with him at all. Isn't it normal not to be invited?"

On the contrary, you not only took the initiative to come over, but you even questioned others. You really have a thick skin.

Yamada Elf also looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha and Kuroneko with a blank expression. Had these two eaten a powder keg?

"What business is it of yours if I question him? Are you his girlfriends?" Yamada Fairy asked.

"Girlfriend...how could that be?" Black Cat blushed, turned her head away guiltily, and whispered.

"Oh my, as expected of you, you scumbag. I'm getting more and more curious about how many girlfriends you've had. By the way, you didn't actually experience the 'White Album' thing, did you? Otherwise, how could you be so adept at giving such good advice?" Kasumigaoka Utaha said, looking at Tsuchimikado Fuyu and Kuroneko with a strange expression.

"Heh heh, there's definitely something wrong." Yamada Elf looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha and Kuroneko and said, "Wait! You're saying he was the one who suggested White Album?"

"Winter, in Kasumi Shiko's side story, was the White Album Metronome really your suggestion?" Aki Tomoya asked in surprise.

Chapter 412 was written by Kasumigaoka Utaha. What does it have to do with me?

"Yes, it was my suggestion." Tsuchimikado Fuyu saw Yamada Elf gritting her teeth, rolled her eyes at Kasumigaoka Utaha, and said helplessly.

Now that "White Album Metronome" has been released, Kasumigaoka Utaha has been getting a lot of flak from readers. Now she's telling people that this thing was his idea, which is just making him the target of a lot of hatred!

"Touhou, you're amazing! With such talent, why didn't you write a book sooner? That way, I could have seen these excellent light novels much earlier," Aki Tomoya said, both excited and regretful.

"Haha, I only discovered that recently too," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a laugh.

Before his transmigration, the original Tsuchimikado Fuyu would never have written anything lighthearted. And after Tsuchimikado Fuyu transmigrated, he initially had no intention of writing this.

He only decided to try it out of pride, and he only succeeded after receiving help from the old man.

However, after discovering that this thing is indeed very profitable, Tsuchimikado Fuyu can only say "it's really good," since this game is getting more and more money-grabbing.

As the saying goes, money makes you stronger, and without money, you're no match for others... cough cough, that's roughly the idea.

"You scoundrel, take this!" Just as Tsuchimikado Fuyu and Aki Tomoya were chatting, Yamada Elf angrily punched Tsuchimikado Fuyu and roared.

She was tricked into reading this book by someone, and after reading it, she felt terrible. Her mind was filled with philosophical thoughts like "I was the one who went first" and "Why are you so good at it?"

She was so angry that she almost rushed up to Machida Wanko and demanded Kasumi Shiko's contact information.

Unfortunately, Yamada Fairy's "angry punch" had no effect on Tsuchimikado Fuyu. Tsuchimikado Fuyu simply grabbed her fist and said helplessly, "Although I came up with this idea, this is the author."

If I were writing it, I definitely couldn't have written such a heart-wrenching plot, right? It really takes a good author to write it. So, if you have a grievance, go find Kasumi Shiko-sensei, don't come to me.

"This was written by Kasumigaoka Utaha. What does it have to do with me, Kasumigaoka Utaha?"

"Senior, have you no shame?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu said speechlessly, his lips twitching.

"Let's put that aside for now. How long are you two planning to keep holding hands? Someone looks like they're about to get jealous." Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at the gloomy-looking black cat teasingly and said with a smile.

"Who would be jealous of him? I think you're the one who's jealous," the black cat retorted stubbornly.

Yamada Elf looked thoughtfully at Kasumigaoka Utaha and Kuroneko, then grabbed Tsuchimikado Fuyu's arm and said, "Since you two aren't jealous, then I won't hold back."

Tsuchimikado Fuyu looked speechlessly at Yamada Elf, whose face was flushed and body was trembling slightly. "You don't know Raphiel, do you? Why do you always manage to drag yourself into your own messes when you're trying to trick others?"

However, although Yamada Elf was indeed a little nervous, her attack on the black cat was indeed very powerful.

"Hey, aren't you going to introduce this one?" the black cat said, staring intently at Yamada Elf.

She already had enough competitors, and now another one has appeared, and this girl is even bolder than Raphiel. She's a formidable foe.

Raphiel is just a master of empty talk, while Yamada Elf can take action right away!

"This is Yamada Elf, the author of the book 'The Dark Elf of Explosive Flames'."

"This is Ms. Xia Shizi, the author of 'Love Metronome,' and she is the one who wrote 'White Album.'"

"This is my good friend Aki Tomoya, who is also a well-known online anime blogger named TAKI."

"This is my junior, Kuroneko. She's preparing to write a light novel, but she's quite famous in the gaming world. She's called Chiba's Fallen Saint Kuroneko."

When she heard the first two introductions, Yamada Elf just smiled and nodded.

However, upon hearing the name Black Cat, he immediately released Tsuchimikado Fuyu's arm, excitedly grabbed Black Cat's hand, and asked, "You're the Fallen Saint Black Cat from Chiba? The player who topped the leaderboard in Three Swordsmen?"

"Three-Knife Swords? It's been a long time since I've played that, but I do think I did top the leaderboard once."

Black Cat thought for a moment and realized that there seemed to be such a game, but after the game introduced a lot of events where players could spend money to become stronger, Black Cat hadn't played it much.

"It really was you. I was all set to challenge you, but then I found out you've quit. It's no fun being number one on the leaderboard now," Yamada Fairy said regretfully.

"How much did you spend on in-game purchases?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu asked Yamada Elf, speechless.

He knew that Yamada Elf was a huge gamer. She and Apuri were the same kind of people who could spend their own money on in-game purchases without any pressure, and after they finished, they could still say, "I'm a free-to-play player."

However, compared to other games, Yamada Elf prefers gacha games a bit more, and doesn't know much about other games.

"It'll be around one or two million, since this game isn't very popular anymore. If I spend that much, no one can beat me."

"Heh, you call that a little bit?" Black Cat's lips twitched. She hated talking to these pay-to-win players. She definitely preferred games that required skill.

Seeing the black cat's face grow increasingly gloomy, Tsuchimikado Fuyu couldn't help but give Yamada Elf a thumbs up. "Girl, you've really pulled off a good feud. The black cat doesn't even have time to care about our relationship anymore."

"Kasumi-sensei, Yamada Elf-sensei, TAKI-kun, what are you doing standing outside?" Just then, Machida Wanko's voice came from behind them.

Everyone turned around and greeted her.

"Come in and talk," Machida Wanko said with a smile.

Upon entering the backstage dressing room, Tsuchimikado Fuyu introduced Mrs. Eromanga and Sagiri to everyone.

Upon hearing that it was Eromanga-sensei, Yamada Elf's eyes lit up immediately, and she wanted to ask her to draw something. After all, Eromanga's erotic illustrations were a perfect match for her own light novel.

She was also curious as to why Tsuchimikado Fuyuki was collaborating with Eromanga Sensei. After all, although Battle Through the Heavens had only released two volumes, the plot didn't seem like the kind of mindless fanservice harem story.

It's such a waste of Eromanga-sensei's talent to draw illustrations for such serious works.

Although Eromanga-sensei is quite good at drawing serious illustrations, it is precisely because of this that Yamada Elf wants Eromanga to draw illustrations for her even more.

Compared to Yamada Elf, Kasumigaoka Utaha and Kuroneko were only slightly shocked by the fact that Eromanga Sensei was a woman before calming down.

Aki Tomoya, on the other hand, was much calmer. Although he would have been excited to ask for an autograph from such a famous illustrator, given his personality, he had met Eromanga-sensei several times and had already asked for autographs before, so he was naturally able to remain calm.

Chapter 413 The Three Who Escaped

"Ah, it's over, it's over. I didn't expect a fan meeting that was only three hours long to be so tiring." In the dressing room, Tsuchimikado Fuyu sat on the sofa like Ge You, sighing.

"Taking photos is really a tiring thing," Mrs. Eromanga said helplessly. Although it was not her first time holding a fan meeting, she was still a little unaccustomed to the final photo shoot.

"Touhou, what are your plans for this afternoon?" Aki Tomoya asked.

"What's wrong? Is something the matter?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu looked at Aki Tomoya curiously and asked.

"It's nothing major, just helping me review a few games. There are just too many new anime series and games released this summer, I'm a bit overwhelmed," Aki Tomoya said apologetically.

"Are you so engrossed in watching TV shows or anime? Otherwise, why don't you have time to play games?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu complained.

"Oh my, Battle Through the Heavens is so good! I've watched it ten times already. I can watch it all day long. I can't help it."

"Ha, just watching Battle Through the Heavens?"

"And there's the White Album Metronome, the Exploding Dark Fairy, the Reincarnated Silver Wolf..." Aki Tomoya began listing the light novels he had watched these past few days, but Tsuchimikado Fuyu quickly stopped him:

"Alright, I know you're taking this lightly. You don't need to brag about your achievements. Tell me, which games are they? I might have already played them all."

Aki Tomoya named a few games, but Tsuchimikado Fuyu thought for a moment and realized he had no recollection of them. He asked, "What type? A visual novel?"

"Yes, the first three are, and the last two are story-driven RPG games."

"Have you guys played this before?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu asked, looking at Yamada Elf and the black cat.
