Onmyoji who mingles in the world of anime

"Yes, Kasumigaoka Utaha, a genius beauty in her second year," Tsuchimikado Fuyu introduced.

"I didn't expect you to know so much about this, junior!" Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a smile.

When Tsuchimikado Fuyu saw Kasumigaoka Utaha's expression, he immediately sensed something was wrong. He had seen that "kind" look in her eyes many times before!

Raphiel always has this look in her eyes when she's about to trick someone.

"Senior is a celebrity at school, everyone knows that, except for otaku like you who don't care about the real world."

Tsuchimikado Fuyuu wouldn't give Kasumigaoka Utaha a chance to trick him, completely ignoring Kasumigaoka Utaha's words and instead stating a fact as if he were stating a fact.

This is indeed true; Kasumigaoka Utaha is very famous at school.

Long, straight black hair, mature and elegant, black stockings, genius... At school, regardless of gender, Kasumigaoka Utaha is very popular.

Although Tsuchimikado Fuyu wasn't really concerned about these things, he just happened to find out.

"Let's not talk about that now. I don't have much time left, and I can't waste the time of other fans." Aki Tomo didn't dwell on the issue with Tsuchimikado Fuyu, but continued to talk about his thoughts afterward.

To be honest, this is precisely what Tsuchimikado Fuyu admires about Aki Tomoya; Aki Tomoya is a complete perfectionist.

I provide timely and comprehensive feedback to the author, but I never share my own insights on what will happen next, nor do I interfere with the author's ideas.

Even at a book signing event like this, they don't care that the author is a beautiful girl and will chat about other topics. They will only share their thoughts after the event within the allotted time.

They certainly wouldn't just hastily sign their name and call it a day just because the author is a burly man.

He only ever looks, never at people.

Just like Tsuchimikado Fuyu said, he is an otaku who doesn't care about the real world, but he doesn't let his otaku behavior affect others.

At least in the class, everyone's impression of Aki Tomoya was that he was a member of the home club and had very few friends.

However, it won't be long before Aki Tomoya changes everyone's impression of him.

Of course, that's a story for another time.

After finishing speaking, Aki Tomoya bowed deeply, expressing his gratitude once again to Kasumi Shiko for bringing him such a beautiful performance, and then left.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu also paid the fee and is waiting for Kasumigaoka Utaha's autograph.

Since I'm already here, I can't leave empty-handed, and I'm not as short of money as I used to be.

Having money in hand means I'm not worried at all.

After signing her name, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked curiously at Tsuchimikado Fuyu, "Don't you have anything to say to me, junior? As a fan?"

"Hmm...you really want to tell me?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha became even more curious about Tsuchimikado Fuyu. Even if he wasn't a die-hard fan like Aki Tomoya, he must at least be a fan at her autograph session. Otherwise, what would he be doing there?

You should know that you've never revealed the fact that you're a beautiful high school girl, so Tsuchimikado Fuyu definitely couldn't have come because of you.

However, Tsuchimikado Fuyu's current expression, as if saying "I didn't want to say it, but you insisted on telling me," left Kasumigaoka Utaha quite puzzled.

Even if it's just a mystery, there's probably some general opinion.

Even if it's not as profound as what Aki Tomoya said, I would still say something like "This book is very interesting", "It's very good", or "When will the sequel be released?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha had originally planned to talk more with Aki Tomoya later, since he was her "first fan" and had a lot of insight into her.

But seeing Tsuchimikado Fuyu's reaction now, Kasumigaoka Utaha is curious to know what Tsuchimikado Fuyu will say.

Chapter 141 Tsuchimikado: The Iron-Willed Straight Man: Winter

"The writing in this book is very delicate, which is something that many light novels cannot match."

However, the whole thing is too fantastical, making it difficult for readers to immerse themselves in the story.

If you simply wanted to write a pure romance, the first volume was indeed very good, but the third volume inexplicably turned into a "sudden arrival" type, and the romance developed too quickly, completely overshadowing the female lead in the first volume.

It's one thing to suddenly appear out of nowhere, but nowadays many light novels prefer dual female leads, or even multiple female leads, so that more side stories can be developed.

But why, even with two female leads, are they still the innocent romance type? Even when the two female leads are vying for power, it's just like everyone else's—no, it's even worse than everyone else's—it's incredibly boring.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's legs were shaking, and her pen tapped rhythmically on the table, revealing the unease in her heart, like the calm before the storm.

"So, junior, what do you think is the best way to write it? Should it be like the common story, with two girls vying for the same man, flirting with each other, and finally sleeping together?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu, "I didn't expect my junior to be such a scumbag. Should I just call you Scumbag-kun?"

Tsuchimikado Fuyu's lips twitched. "You're the one who told me to say it, and I never said to write it like that, okay? Scumbag? I could never be that!"

"If Kasumi Shiko's imagination is like this, then I have nothing to say. However, I can never accept the title of 'scumbag,' not in this lifetime." Tsuchimikado Fuyu pouted and said with a displeased look.

Anyone would be angry to be labeled a scumbag for no reason!

I've already been very patient by not letting the three-tailed fox come out and kill you.

"Putting aside the question of whether the scumbag is a scumbag or not, what are your thoughts on this book?"

"I have no insightful opinion, and even if I did, I wouldn't want to share it. Farewell." Tsuchimikado Tou wouldn't give anyone a benefit for no reason. You slandered me and still want something in return? You're just asking for trouble.

Seeing Tsuchimikado Fuyu's expression, Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned. This junior was a bit different from the others!

Others, even those who aren't fans of yours, wouldn't react this way upon seeing you.

This isn't Kasumigaoka Utaha being narcissistic; it's just a fact. She's quite confident in her appearance. While she might not be able to completely bewitch Tsuchimikado Fuyu, she certainly has some advantages.

However, Tsuchimikado Fuyu not only remained unmoved by her own appearance, but also said such infuriating things, which greatly damaged Kasumigaoka Utaha's confidence.

This also aroused Kasumigaoka Utaha's competitive spirit.

"Hey, junior, you don't have a girlfriend, right?"

"No." Tsuchimikado Fuyu readily admitted it, unlike others who would stammer and hesitate when talking about not having a girlfriend, as if it were something shameful.

So what if I don't have a girlfriend?

Is this shameful?

Am I, Tsuchimikado, a straight-laced man, someone who needs a girlfriend?

Besides, my life is much more comfortable now than when I had a girlfriend. Apart from needing to satisfy my physical needs, the shikigami can do everything my girlfriend can do, and they can still do things my girlfriend can't do.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Tsuchimikado Fuyu doesn't look for a girlfriend.

If a beautiful girl with a good personality confessed her feelings to me, I wouldn't necessarily refuse.

In conclusion, this is why Tsuchimikado Fuyu was unmoved by Kasumigaoka Utaha's beauty.

So what if she's a mature woman? So what if she's wearing black stockings? So what if she's a super pretty girl? Slurp... Ptooey ptooey, what are you slurping about? Anyway, she's not my girlfriend. What can I do with her besides look at her?

Beauty does not exist.

"That's understandable. It's not easy to find a girlfriend if you're not considerate of girls." Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded seriously and said with a smile.

"It's alright, I'm still young, no rush." ​​Tsuchimikado Tou said nonchalantly, "Senior, if there's nothing else, then I won't take up everyone's time. Yours is really good, really, it's just not to my taste."

As Tsuchimikado Fuyu walked out of the autograph room, Kasumigaoka Utaha watched his retreating figure with a smile, thinking to herself, "Class 1-B, huh? You scumbag, we'll meet again."

Next time, I'll definitely conquer you with my lightness.

Upon entering the store, I saw Aki Tomoya sitting in a corner, intently looking at the Love Metronome in his hand. Although he had read this book many times before, this was the first time he had seen the one with Kasumi Utako's autograph.

"Rinya, let's go." Tsuchimikado Fuyu said as he walked out.

"Wait a minute, I'll buy a few more," Aki Tomoya said, closing the book.

Aki Tomoya bought several newly released light novels, one of which was the one he mentioned before, "The Reincarnated Silver Wolf Volume 3".

After leaving the store, they didn't go straight back. It was lunchtime, so the two went to a restaurant for lunch.

……

After leaving the station, Tsuchimikado Fuyu went straight to Kobayashi's house. It was a bit early, but it didn't matter, since there would definitely be someone at Kobayashi's house anyway.

Arriving at Kobayashi's house, I rang the doorbell, and soon I heard footsteps coming from inside.

The door opened, and Thor stood there, smiling, saying, "Little Winter, you've come?"

"Sister Tohru, am I too early?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu asked with a smile.

"No, no, didn't Xiaoyi come today?" Tohru looked behind Tsuchimikado Fuyu but didn't see Xiaoyi, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

You see, Xiaoyi is his "comrade-in-arms," ​​and he was waiting to discuss with her how to get Xiaolin to eat his tail meat.

"Sister Xiaoyi will be coming over this afternoon. I had to go out this morning and just got back. I figured I was coming over this afternoon anyway, so I didn't go back," Tsuchimikado Fuyu explained.

"I see." Thor suddenly realized and quickly ushered Tsuchimikado Fuyu into the room.

"Is my cousin working overtime again?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu looked around the living room and, finding no one there, asked.

"Yes, I already said that even if I don't work, I can support Xiaolin. There's no need to work too hard for such a small amount of money, but unfortunately Xiaolin just won't listen," Thor complained.

Although Thor doesn't have any source of income, she is a dragon. Even if she isn't one of those dragons who like to collect treasure, the treasure she has collected by chance in the past is enough to support Kobayashi for several lifetimes.

Unfortunately, Kobayashi had her own principles and refused to use Thor's treasure. Instead, she provided for Thor and Connor's daily expenses.

"Sister Tohru, you should be happy!" Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile.

"Huh?" Tohru looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu with a puzzled expression. "How could I be happy when Kobayashi is working so hard?"

Chapter 142 Fafner

Night fell.

"I'm home," Kobayashi called out as he opened the door.

"Welcome back," Thor and his two companions greeted them from the doorway.

"Excuse me." Just then, a head popped out from the doorway and greeted them with a smile.

This person was Kobayashi's colleague, Takiya Makoto. Although Tsuchimikado Fuyu had never met him, he had heard Tohru mention him a few times.

Yes, it was this afternoon when Thor was complaining about him, he was full of displeasure.

“Welcome…” Thor’s lips twitched, his brows furrowed, and he said with difficulty.

"This doesn't seem like a welcome at all!" Takiya Makoto chuckled, completely ignoring Tohru's reaction and appearing quite familiar with him.
