Contract Successful
"Okay then Carla-san, you can call me Hito." He thought 'It's really her! Eren's mother! I wonder if he also exists here.'
Carla nodded, she looked at Sakura and asked.
"And this girl is?"
Sakura quickly introduced herself.
"Oh, I'm Sakura Yamauchi! I'm just tagging along with him!"
Carla nodded, then she looked at the table and spoke.
"That's that manga right?"
Hito nodded, Carla sat on the other couch and she gently picked up the manuscript, she started to look at the first page.
The more she looked at it the more surprised she became! Carla thought 'This art! It's too detailed! Even the smallest things are involved! This art quality! It's too good.'
Ding! 1+ Surprise Point!
'Oh, I guess she's surprised at my art details, I guess it's only natural.' Hito thought while looking at Carla, suddenly she asked.
"Hito-kun- no Hito-sensei when have you started to draw?"
Hito thought 'I can't tell her that I've only learned how to draw that kind of quality yesterday right? It's unbelievable to begin with...I could say I started since elementary, however...I wanna farm Points!'
"Well, I just started a year ago."
Carla's surprise turned into shock, she exclaimed.
"You're saying that you've achieved this level in just a single year??!"
Hito nodded, and thought 'You'd be even surprised if I tell you the truth..'

(A/N : Farming points~!)
"Unbelievable…. Hito-sensei I had to admit you're a genius...many artists out there have already practiced arts for decades already, yet they still haven't reached this level of art!"
(A/N : I can understand this, I'm an Artist myself I can't say I'm good at the body but I'm pretty confident in the head, almost practiced for 5 year in arts yet I suck.)
Sakura looked at Hito with surprise, she didn't expect him to be also good at this, though she might be unknowledgeable at Arts but she knows that the lady in front of them is a professional, and yet a professional praised him, it shows that Hito's art is amazing!
Ding! 1+ Surprise Point!

Hito ignored those sounds for now, he spoke.
"Carla-san please continue reading it...art might be important, but the plot is more important than the Art! Without a proper plot this kind of Art is a joke!"
Hito was just bullshiting, Carla fake cough.
"Ahem- yes that's true, forgive me I will continue reading this."
Carla started to read the manuscript, as she started to read the manuscript, she thought 'This is interesting...let me continue..'
As she continues, the more she feels that this plot is extremely good! She continued reading till the end.
Her body trembled in excitement, and then she shouted.
"Hito-sensei! Please work with us! This story of yours is a masterpiece! It would change the whole manga community! I doubt that this manga is going to be No.1 sooner or later!"
While his points are slowly rising, he kept his expression calm. He expected this Demon Slayer wasn't just any other manga, this manga surpassed One Piece and became the best selling manga that year.
"Carla-san it was my intention to begin with, calm down why would I even bother going here if I didn't want to publish this manga here."
Carla realized that and slowly got embarrassed, and said.
"Ah, yes.. that makes sense, sorry I was just too excited that I forgot."
Sakura beside him giggled, but still she was surprised by what's happening, she didn't realize that she was one of the first people who reads the future No. 1 manga.
Not everyone had the privilege to read it earlier, after that Carla and Hito talked about Royalty, the negotiation didn't take a long time.
Carla got permission from her superior, and the Royalty was decided to be 50/50, 50% to the company and 50% to him, it's already too generous.
Other than him making the manga, he literally doesn't have to do anything. The company does the advertisements, and the materials necessary to make plenty of the manga copy.
That's how they value his work, Carla came back to the room with the current director of the Shōnen Jump, and guess what again it's a woman!
He couldn't help but think 'Is God hinting me that I should do harem? After all, I met more females than males in this world!'
If it's a percentage it would be 70% females 30% males, not just that the females that are close to him are top beautys! Except for his sister Hitomi.
===
In the Apartment room where Tadano lives, Hitomi suddenly felt like punching someone.
She felt irritated for a reason and said.
"I felt like someone was mocking me behind my back!"
===
Hito had finally finished signing the contract with Weekly Shōnen Jump, honestly it was a nerve-racking experience to him but he didn't show it outside.
But of course, he readed the contract with great detail. There wasn't anything bad in it. They just wanted the copyrights of the manga, and he should finish the story before he'd switch to another company.
It's not like his planning to do so anyways, but regardless he had his advance money! But of course his share when the manga is different, he got paid 15,000 yen per page.
Which is really too good for a beginner Mangaka like him, so 50x 15,000 = 750,000 yen!
Also in that incident he learned 2 skills, it's [ Negotiation ] and [ Fear Resistance ] he bought them without hesitation, they are pretty useful.
Though he said that he had to unlock the shop as soon as possible, but this skill was too useful, so he decided not to upgrade the [ Negotiation ] skill for now and as for [ Fear Resistance ] he upgraded it to Monster.
It's too important so he wouldn't be intimidated by the others in the future, as he upgraded it, he felt that no one in this world could possibly make him feel scared.
It wasn't just an empty talk, but it's real as if the 'Fear' inside him completely disappeared.
(A/N : He is becoming more and more like Saitama as this continues xD.)
But of course it's only the fear not his embarrassment. Those are different after all.
Other than that, he could finally pay his parents for those materials that he bought, but first he had to treat Sakura!
He wasn't stingy, she is also one of his mental supports in the negotiation time with the Weekly Shōnen Jump.
He brought Sakura to a decent restaurant, at least for now this is what he could afford in the future he had no problem treating her to a 5 star restaurant.
But he is a 5 star restaurant himself, if he'd rate his cooking, he wasn't picky. It's good to spend the money you earn yourself.
It's a different type of achievement, but it still feels good regardless.
The two ate happily in the restaurant, no matter how they deny it.
It's definitely a Date.
( END- )
Okay I'm really trying so hard damn, it's hard to make this one business isn't my forte at all!
Geez I'm not into this at all….but I'm pretty good at squandering. 😏
