After the initial draw, when the black cat discovered that he was in last place, he was overjoyed because he had thought of this opportunity.

However, although she had thought about it, she was a little embarrassed to bring it up herself.

Moreover, the fireworks display wouldn't start for another half hour, by which time my time would be over, and everyone was supposed to watch the fireworks together afterwards.

If she were to bring it up herself, wouldn't that imply that she had some unspeakable secret? Although she did have one, she was too embarrassed to reveal it directly.

But now that Tsuchimikado Tou has brought it up, it's different. At least even if others find out, they'll only tease Tsuchimikado Tou, not her, and they won't discover her secret.

So, Tsuchimikado Fuyu and Kuroneko walked and talked towards the lawn, but the main topic of their conversation was Kuroneko's new book.

Although the proposal for the new book was only made a day or two ago, Black Cat already has quite a few ideas.

Unfortunately, in Tsuchimikado Fuyu's view, these imaginative ideas are actually just the current mainstream light novel writing style.

With Black Cat's current level of expertise, signing a contract for release is definitely not a problem. However, because it is too formulaic, lacks any outstanding features, and even has some strange aspects, Black Cat's performance is significantly downgraded.

In short, while it can sell, whether it will become a hit is another question.

In response, Tsuchimikado Fuyu could only say that he wasn't in a hurry and would take his time to think it over. Sharpening the axe wouldn't delay the work of chopping wood. He would first think about the theme, then the outline. As for the content, Kuroko's hand speed was fast enough, and he could still produce high-quality content quickly.

For most authors, the most serious problem is actually the update speed, but this is not a problem at all for Black Cat.

What Black Cat needs most is to figure out what to write, and then keep revising it until he is satisfied.

Tsuchimikado Tou was quite envious of this, after all, his own writing skills were poor and his typing speed was slow; he was a typical author who was always procrastinating on updates.

The only advantage is that you don't need to worry about the plot, and you won't be concerned about whether the following plot is good or bad, which is the complete opposite of Black Cat.

After all, judging from the reactions to the first two volumes, this kind of underdog rises to power and mindless showing off is a very novel writing style at present. At least as the pioneer of the genre, Battle Through the Heavens will not lose its popularity even if there are imitations.

Of course, since Tsuchimikado Fuyu doesn't have any plans to write a second book, he doesn't need to worry about what theme to write for the second book. However, even if he were to write a new book, he wouldn't write this type of book again.

After all, once the modified version of Battle Through the Heavens became popular, there will definitely be many followers, and with this trend, it will most likely become the mainstream.

Once it becomes mainstream, it means that people will see this type of content a lot and then get tired of it. Even if writing this type of content again becomes popular, it won't become very popular.

After all, compared to other light novel authors, Tsuchimikado Touyu's only advantage is his creativity. Once he loses his novel ideas, he will become just another ordinary person.

Putting aside the issue of the new book for the moment, the two chatted for a while before finally arriving at the lawn. However, it was already packed with people because the fireworks display was about to begin. The lawn was full of tourists, some standing, some sitting, chatting in small groups.

"There are so many people," Tsuchimikado Fuyu complained.

"After all, this is the closest and most convenient place to watch the fireworks," the black cat said calmly.

Black Cat had already guessed what was going on here, but none of that mattered to her, as long as she could watch the fireworks alone with Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

Moreover, I have some special plans for the future.

The premise of this plan, besides the right atmosphere, is that there are no other people she knows in the room, not even Tsuchimikado Fuyu's shikigami, otherwise she would feel embarrassed.

"How about we walk a little further along the river? Find a spot that's a bit less crowded. It's not as open as the lawn, but watching the fireworks from the river should be pretty good."

Although Tsuchimikado Fuyu had already gone to the river with the two girls, there was no other way now. There were just too many people here, and even more people were likely to come later. He didn't want to be crammed together with a bunch of people to watch the fireworks; that would be too boring.

Chapter 439 An Unexpected Yet Reasonable Answer

A cool breeze was blowing as Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the black cat walked along the riverbank. Before they knew it, they had moved far away from the temple fair. The surroundings were quiet, and there were hardly any people to be seen.

“Let’s stay here, or you’ll all lose us later,” Tsuchimikado Fuyu said, leaning against the railing by the river.

"They're almost lost on us," Black Cat complained. It took them nearly twenty minutes to walk from the temple fair to here, and if they didn't call, no one else would be able to find them.

"There's nothing we can do. The riverbank was packed with people just now. It's a bit quieter here." Tsuchimikado Fuyu glanced at his phone, walked to a bench by the river, and said, "Let's sit for a while. The fireworks display doesn't start for another three minutes."

"Hmm." The black cat nodded and sat down silently next to Tsuchimikado Fuyu, keeping a little distance from him.

"Why are you sitting so far away? Are you afraid I'll eat you?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu complained.

"There are so few people here, who knows if you'll suddenly become wild and do something bad," the black cat said, blushing.

"It's not going to be good at all. Although there are fewer people here, it's not like there's no one at all. Occasionally, one or two people will pass by. I don't have any fetish for exposing myself in the wild," Tsuchimikado Fuyu complained.

"So, if there's absolutely no one here, you won't be able to control yourself?" The black cat, holding the bear, looked warily at Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

"Fine, sit wherever you like." Tsuchimikado Fuyu put his hands behind his head, leaned back in his seat, and looked at the sky. "One minute left."

"Yeah, there's still one minute left, but why haven't they called? My time should be up by now," the black cat said, puzzled.

The reason she asked that question was to show that she had no other intentions. After all, even if someone else came looking for her, it would take a lot of time, and by then her plan would have already been completed, so it wouldn't have any impact on her.

"Hmm, he's probably been drawn to other programs," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said.

The real reason is that Raphiel is holding back the others, and Raphiel has already sent a message to Tsuchimikado Fuyu, telling him to keep going.

Although Tsuchimikado Fuyu also wanted to capture the black cat immediately, he still felt it was very unreliable.

Firstly, whether the black cat will confess her feelings is the biggest question. Secondly, even if she does confess, if he tells her that he wants to build a harem, the black cat will most likely slap him twice and leave.

Of course, Tsuchimikado Fuyu didn't think too much about what would happen afterward. He'd just let things take their course. Anyway, he was no longer single, so he wasn't worried at all.

That's right, that's what Tsuchimikado Tou truly thinks. So if Raphiel hadn't agreed to help Tsuchimikado Tou build a harem, he probably would never have been able to do such a thing in his life.

However, it must be said that, as a lazy bum, he is quite successful.

boom!Boom!

Just as Tsuchimikado Fuyu and Kuroneko were both silent, lost in their own thoughts, a series of explosions suddenly rang out in the sky.

Brilliant fireworks burst in the sky, making the originally dark sky even more colorful and beautiful, like a poem or a painting, and the sound was deafening.

Under the glow of fireworks, people eagerly emerged from all directions to admire the magnificent spectacle.

"So beautiful," the black cat said, staring blankly at the fireworks.

Upon hearing this, Tsuchimikado Fuyu turned her head slightly, looking at the smiling black cat against the backdrop of the colorful sky, like a fairy.

“It is indeed quite beautiful,” Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile.

As if noticing Tsuchimikado Fuyu's gaze, or perhaps sensing the hidden meaning in Tsuchimikado Fuyu's words, the black cat suddenly turned its head and looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu showed no sign of panic at being caught peeping. Instead, he looked at the black cat with a smile. He wasn't peeping at all; he was looking openly and honestly, so what was there to be ashamed of?

Fireworks were constantly exploding in the sky, but Tsuchimikado and Fuyu had no time to pay attention to them.

The two stared at each other, and for a moment the surroundings seemed to fall completely silent, as if the sound of fireworks had been shut out from them.

"Hey, Fuyu-kun."

"?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu smiled at the black cat and said, "I've rarely heard you call me that before."

Upon hearing this, the black cat's already slightly flushed face turned completely red. She nervously clenched her fists, pursed her lips slightly, and then slowly relaxed them, looking at Tsuchimikado Fuyu with a determined gaze. "Please go out with me."

So he finally spoke up?

Tsuchimikado Fuyu was actually prepared for Kuroneko's confession, since Kuroneko would have confessed long ago if it weren't for Satania last time.

In the original drama, although she is usually not very frank, once she decides that she likes someone, she will muster up the courage to confess to him.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu really likes this.

The only problem now is... should I bring up that issue now?

When the black cat saw Tsuchimikado Fuyu's silence, it thought it was a tacit rejection, and tears welled up in its eyes. Its pitiful appearance was truly heartbreaking.

"Black cat..." Upon seeing it, Tsuchimikado Fuyu immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly began to speak.

However, the black cat reacted faster, saying, "Fuyu-kun, do you have someone else you like? Is it Raphiel? Or Kasumigaoka? Or Rikka? Or some other people?"

Tsuchimikado Fuyu looked at the black cat helplessly. What I want to say is, I want all of these!

However, he felt that if he said that, the black cat might actually hit him.

“Black Cat, listen to my explanation,” Tsuchimikado Fuyu said.

"Then do you hate me?" the black cat continued to ask.

"I don't dislike it." Tsuchimikado Fuyu shook his head, thought for a moment and decided to just say it directly. Anyway, he would say it sooner or later, so instead of hesitating, he might as well cut the Gordian knot.

"To be precise, this isn't my problem, it's your problem. No, this is also part of my problem. Anyway, listen to me first, but you can't hit me after you've listened."

"Why would I hit you?" The black cat looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu with a puzzled expression, but finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then tell me."

Tsuchimikado Fuyu took a deep breath, looked at the black cat and said, "Hey, black cat, I'm not a good man. What I want is to have a harem, and it's not just wishful thinking, it's the kind of harem that I'm definitely going to have."

"Although I'm a scumbag, I don't want to deceive you. So if you can't accept that, even if I agreed to date you, it's impossible."

"..." The black cat looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu in silence. She had thought of many possible answers, but she never expected that Tsuchimikado Fuyu would give this answer.

However, upon closer reflection, it is an unexpected yet reasonable answer.

Chapter 440 I love you more than anyone else in this world

"Although I won't confess my feelings to other girls, I would never refuse if a girl I like confessed to me."

However, I won't hide this from you. If you can accept it, I will love you unconditionally. If not, then I'm sorry.

"As expected of the scumbag that Kasumigaoka called you, I thought she misunderstood you, but I didn't expect you really are a scumbag, Fuyu-kun." Kuroneko said with a blush.

"I won't argue with that either," Tsuchimikado Fuyu sighed. So that's how it is, isn't it?

But thinking about it, it makes sense. It would be strange if a normal person could accept this. Although Black Cat has come into contact with many extraordinary beings, he is still a normal person.

"So, from what you're saying, you also want to add me to your harem, which means I'm also a girl you like, right?" the black cat suddenly asked.

"You don't need to doubt this. I can tell you clearly that I like you, but although I like you, I won't confess my feelings to you."

"Knowing that is enough." The black cat nodded, pondered for a moment, then suddenly blushed and looked up at Tsuchimikado Fuyu, saying, "But I still want to try. Can't you just like me?"

"This... I'm sorry." Tsuchimikado Fuyu shook his head. Now that he had decided to start a harem, Tsuchimikado Fuyu would continue down this path.

Besides, Raphiel is already his girlfriend, so he has no way to back down.

"Is that so?" The black cat sighed. It seemed his determination to build a harem was very strong.

"why?"

"?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu looked at the black cat in confusion, only to hear her continue, "Why am I only finding out now that you're a scumbag? If only I had known sooner!"

Seeing the black cat with tears streaming down her face, Tsuchimikado Fuyu fell silent. Although he didn't want to see the black cat so sad, it was better to be clear from the beginning than to lie to her now and make her even sadder later. It was better to have a short pain than a long one.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared before his eyes, and Tsuchimikado Fuyu felt a soft body embrace him. Looking at the black cat burying her face in his chest, Tsuchimikado Fuyu was unsure whether he should hug her back.

"Black cat..."

"what should I do?"

"Even if you ask me this, I can't help you decide," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a wry smile. "But I can assure you one thing: I'm not the kind of person who gets bored easily."
