A super great writer in the second dimension

　Nodding thoughtfully, Sanzenin Arashi followed her grandfather to the next room.

　The two sat down on the chairs.

　"Grandpa, what do you think of Mashiro?" Sanzenin Arashi asked, a little nervous.

　Emperor Sanzenin's face exuded an air of vigor despite his advanced age. He raised his eyelids and snorted.

　To be honest, Sanzenin Arashi did hope that this grandfather could accept the woman he liked; that was probably his wish.

　"This child's name is Mashiro, right?" Michiru Sanzenin looked at his grandson. "Aren't you going to introduce him to me?"

　Sanzenin Arashi was taken aback.

　"I don't even know her yet. Are you just going to let me remain a stranger to her like this?"

　Upon hearing this, Sanzenin Arashi showed a slightly enlightened expression.

　"Grandpa, don't you pay attention to the art world?" Sanzenin Arashi asked.

　To everyone's surprise, Emperor Sanzenin laughed.

　“Art? The landscape of heavy industry is the most beautiful painting in the world, a painting I personally created.” Michiko Sanzenin stroked his beard. “Everything else is insignificant.”

　This is a transcendence of style, isn't it? Sanzenin Arashi couldn't help but complain. Emperor Sanzenin, like an ancient emperor, regarded the map of his country as the most beautiful work of art. Ancient emperors would draw maps, invite famous artists to write, and make them into scrolls, which would be displayed in their palaces.

　Emperor Sanzenin's palace is a submersible aircraft carrier, so it's normal that someone like him wouldn't recognize Mashiro.

　“Mashiro is an artist,” said Sanzenin Arashi. “A very talented artist, and also the most capable one I have.”

　Whether it's day or night, Mashiro is extremely capable.

　"A young girl of this age, an artist?" Michiru Sanzenin scoffed.

　Sanzenin Arashi pursed her lips and said, "Her paintings hang in Buckingham Palace, and even Her Majesty the Queen acknowledges their artistry."

　Upon hearing this, Emperor Sanzenin burst into laughter.

　“I see, I see. It seems I underestimated her,” Sanzenin Tei’s laughter abruptly stopped: “I am very satisfied.”

　Sanzenin Arashi felt very comfortable inside.

　The recognition from elders is the same for everyone, regardless of net worth or wealth. It's about happiness and a sense of fulfillment.

　At this point, Emperor Sanzenin suddenly raised his hand and asked, "Why did I see something outside...?"

　"Ulrika?"

　Emperor Sanzenin nodded.

　Sanzenin Arashi pursed her lips, walked to her grandfather's side, and whispered a few words to him.

　"Ha ha!"

　The old man burst into laughter again upon hearing this.

　"I thought you would be with her, but now I've seen other people. I didn't expect this to happen at the same time. However, she is a princess, the future standard-bearer. You should know your limits."

　Sanzenin Arashi nodded.

　Later that afternoon, Emperor Sanzenin went to Mashiro's room alone and talked to her about something.

　Sanzenin Arashi didn't bother to pay attention to the matter. After his grandfather left, he stood in the courtyard and let out a deep sigh of relief.

　I doubt Ulrika will ever take the initiative to pursue love again.

　Sanzenin Arashi will feed her until she's full.

　But what he was thinking about was Nan Lingyin.

　"Let's be honest with Kotori first; it'll be easier to convince her," Sanzenin Arashi thought. Tomorrow was the day to return to Japan, and Minami Suzune valued her daughter highly. To minimize the risks, Sanzenin Arashi decided to persuade Kotori first.

　..

443. Nan Lingyin wants to get married and start a family.

　When they came to Britain from Japan, Sanzenin Arashi brought Mashiro and Chino with her, but on the way back, only Chino was left.

　"Chino, how have you been feeling these past few days?"

　"Everyone was very enthusiastic, so I was very happy."

　"Really? Get some rest."

　"Ah."

　After putting Chino to sleep, Sanzenin Arashi sat by the window, staring at the clouds.

　The Gulfstream G650 is flying smoothly.

　I arrived in Japan on the afternoon of the second day.

　As expected, at the airport, the person who greeted Sanzenin Arashi was Nishikawa Jun.

　The chief editor of the paperback section, Nishikawa, rushed over, and the first thing he said to Sanzenin Arashi was...

　"Mr. Aoyama, please stop joking! Where on earth did Ms. Shiina go?!"

　Sanzenin Arashi slowly looked at Nishikawa Hayato, thought for a moment, and said, "Well... the manuscript will be submitted next week, so don't worry about it for now."

　Which author in this world would dare to speak to the editor-in-chief in such a tone? But alas, the editor-in-chief is the boss, so Nishikawa Hayato could only sigh.

　He then asked, "When will Ms. Shiina clarify this matter on Twitter? There's been no serialization for half a month, and readers are leaving; this situation is very serious..."

　"Alright." Sanzenin Arashi waved his hand impatiently. "Mashiro isn't going back to Japan for the time being, so forget about Twitter. The manuscript will be submitted on time."

　"..."

　Nishikawa looked at Sanzenin Arashi. In front of this boss, he felt that there must be something fishy about this matter, but he didn't dare to ask. Now everyone on the internet was speculating whether Shiina-sensei had something wrong, or whether the cute girl had been imprisoned or something.

　Sanzenin Arashi clearly noticed what his subordinates were thinking; judging people and understanding their ways was as easy for him as eating and drinking.

　Do you have any questions?

　...Questions? Of course there are!

　"Um, Shiina-sensei is abroad, right?" After seeing Sanzenin Arashi nod, Nishikawa continued, "So, how do we submit the manuscript?"

　"Oh, so that's what it was about..." said Sanzenin Arashi. "Of course, I'll draw it."

　"Are you going to be drawing two books at the same time?!" Nishikawa blurted out without thinking. "What about the company then...?"

　He regretted it as soon as he said it.

　He noticed that Sanzenin Arashi was looking at him with a kind gaze, and suddenly Nishikawa felt his body temperature drop several degrees.

　"I'm sorry... I overstepped my bounds..." Nishikawa said softly.

　"Who told you I was going to draw two books?" Sanzenin Arashi suddenly spoke up.

　"what?"

　"I'm asking you, does JUMP have anything to do with us? Hmm?"

　"You mean..."

　At this moment, Sanzenin Arashi was still thinking about Kotori. There was going to be another intense emotional confrontation, but she wasn't worried because no matter what happened, Kotori would win.

　No matter what she says or what she thinks, get in the bowl first, and then we can continue our conversation.

　Thinking of this, Sanzenin Arashi straightened up: "JUMP is on hiatus, and about Inuyasha... never mind, I've already told you."

　"Uh...?" Nishikawa asked in confusion as Sanzenin Arashi took a step closer.

　He whispered, "I got Mashiro pregnant. You need to explain to her. If anyone asks, keep it a secret for me, understand?"

　Just kidding. Mashiro is a public figure. Sanzenin Arashi may not care about his reputation, but he has to protect Mashiro's reputation.

　Those manipulative commentators, who knows what kind of flowery words they'll utter after learning about this!

　I feel at ease leaving this matter to Nishikawa, because he knows how to handle it.

　Upon hearing this, Nishikawa immediately showed an expression of sympathy.

　After seeing Chino off in the car, Sanzenin Arashi went home by herself.

　He rested for an afternoon to adjust to the time difference. As darkness fell, Sanzenin Arashi leisurely went out. The streets gradually became more crowded. By the time he drove to Tokyo, it was already 8 p.m.

　Walking calmly down the street, at a leisurely pace.

　Finally, Sanzenin Arashi stopped in front of a hotel.

　He took out his phone and called the little bird.

　"Teacher, what's the matter?"

　Sanzenin Arashi covered her phone and whispered, "Could you come out for a moment?"

　"……teacher?"

　"I need to talk to you about something." Sanzenin Arashi deliberately emphasized the word "thing".

　Minami Kotori immediately said, "I need to tell my mom."

　“Tell Auntie that you didn’t record a part well and you have to rush to record it tonight. If there’s any problem, let Auntie ask me,” said Sanzenin Arashi.

　The little bird hesitated for a moment.

　Isn't this deceiving your mother?

　Is this something that can be done?

　“It’s okay, I’ll wait for you, little bird.” Sanzenin Arashi encouraged her.

　"Um……"

　After hanging up the phone, Sanzenin Arashi started texting Minami Kotori, edited up her address, sent it directly, and then went back to her car to wait.

　In the past, he definitely wouldn't have taken such initiative; he could have waited until the next recording session. Ulrika had influenced him in many ways, especially in his relationships with women, making him more proactive.

　Sanzenin Arashi didn't wait long before her phone rang.

　I picked it up and looked at it. As expected, it was Nan Lingyin.

　"Mr. Aoyama, Kotori is going to film tonight, right?" Nan Lingyin's voice rang out.

　Sanzenin Arashi pursed her lips and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

　"Um... Mr. Aoyama, thank you so much. I'll leave the little bird in your care." Nan Lingyin seemed very happy.

　μs is very popular lately, so the school must be gaining more fame!

　Nan Lingyin is unhappy. Should she cry?

　"Good luck, Chairperson," Sanzenin Arashi teased.

　"...Um, Mr. Aoyama, I want to ask you something..." Nan Lingyin's voice sounded conflicted on the other end of the phone.

　"Oh?" Sanzenin Arashi listened attentively.

　"...Hmm, let me think about it, I'll tell you tomorrow."

　As Sanzenin Arashi hung up the phone, Nan Suzune's face turned red.

　She thought about it for a long time, sitting on the sofa, and even after sending the little bird away, she was still pondering.

　Mr. Aoyama is a really good person, but... he's interesting...

　I wish I could be the little bird's father.

　Considering the age difference between them, Nan Lingyin found it difficult to bring up the matter.

　She felt that Mr. Aoyama had completely captivated her.

　A reliable person who always has a solution, a person who makes you feel very secure—if it's him, you can definitely build a family with him.

　..

444. Getting drunk and hooking up is a one-stop shop!

　After taking a short rest in a chair, Sanzenin Arashi's phone rang.

　Kotori made a phone call, and Sanzenin Arashi got off the train and walked to the side of the tram stop. Pedestrians came and went in a hurry, and the crowd at the stop was surging. The girl was so conspicuous.

　Even amidst the crowd, Sanzenin Arashi spotted Kotori's adorable figure at a glance. She was wearing a short skirt, with her fair and beautiful legs encased in yellow-green stockings, giving her a very unique look. Her slender arms peeked out from her short sleeves.
