manga contract
/5 days later/
5 days have passed since the day of Isemi's reincarnation into a devil, since then she started to get used to her new profound strength, and integrated it into her life, nothing unusual happened
on the last day of the week, in ORC building, the Gremory peerage is ready to leave somewhere,
around a red magical circle, 5 highschoolers standing on it
"ugh, can't we train later? I want to go on a date with Naruki!" Isemi said complaining
"and I want to read the next volume, but Naruki said we need to train! He even gave us a training montage 'the bald hero routine' what does that even mean?!" Rias glared at Naruki, who was standing near them, and gave her a smirk
"you have to honor the deal, on weekends you will train with the schedule I gave you, sadly I kinda made an appointment for the weekend, so I couldn't come with you." he said
"haahaa, Naruki is already cheating on me, hehehe" Isemi breathed heavily like a certain blond masochistic
"Ara, it seems that after Ise-chan confession, she let go of herself to be more expressive, fufu." Akeno giggles, Kiba smiled wryly and shook his head and stopped caring, Koneko stared blankly at her and said, "... pervert."
"See you in two days, remember to train well! I'll personally test You!" Naruki said, and his body disappeared in a mist of Mana!
"How did he do that?!" Isemi gaped and before Kiba to answer, Rias activated the magical circle, disappearing from the place
/scene change/
[illusion magic active level 12(5.6%) : use DP to create illusion, consumption depends on the distance and how many senses and people are being under illusion,
reduce consumption by lvl%
for next level, use 2400 DP or 24 EP]
illusion magic, that what Kiba have him from the match a while ago, and because he got it from Kiba, he needs DP to use it, 'Well, it's not I can illusion magic with MP' Naruki thought as he was going to a certain location
'But unlike DP which uses imagination to build the spell, MP uses calculations, and equations, to create a comparison, Naruki can create a football in his hand, by using DP, he uses illusion magic and construct it with his mind, by saying, 'A ball will be in my hand' and it will appear,
but if he wants to use MP, he must calculate the radius of the ball, and it's materials, a whole lot of process!
'That's why devils are broken!' Naruki thought as he played with an illusion ball in his hand, and the reason no one freak out when they saw a ball out of nowhere?
It's because he put the illusion under him only, now if an illusion is made, everyone will see it, but that's where his creativity came from,
'Why does it have for everyone to see it?' he thought during the time he got to play with magic
then he thought, 'why not make it selectively?', and since it's an imagination base, he just did that
'This magic is very versatile.' Naruki smile internally, as he was reaching his destination, he entered the facility, and was greeted by the clerk
"Welcome! Dear customer!" the pretty brunette said respectfully, only to look at him good, opened her eyes in shock, "Y-You... Kazuya-sensei!"
"You knew me?" he asked
"of course! I read the first volume of your story! It's very thrilling!" she said excitingly.
"Oh, thank you." he smiled, "Actually, I came here because the office invited me to come."
"Is that so?! I shall the office right now!"
*rinng*
"hello."
-What's up? I hope it's something important, I'm in a meeting- a mature women voice came
"sorry for disturbing, director, but Kazuya-sensei is here!'"
-....let him in! - the mature women said in hurry
"Yes! Please follow me, Kazuya-sensei!" the clerk said
"alright." Naruki he nodded
/in office/
half of a dozen, two women, four men were setting around a table in a luxurious room, at the main chair, a mature woman set with slight smile
"welcome, Kazuya-sensei. My name is Akami Hana, it's very pleasant to meat you in person." she stood up and walked confidently to him, stretching her hand in a handshake, Naruki smiled and shook her hand, "The pleasure is mine, I'm Kazuya Naruki."
"Please join us, we were discussing Kazuya-sensei's future corporation." she led him to a very comfortable sofa, and clapped her hand gestures to the attended nearby to bring snacks and drinks
the other in the office began to introduce themselves, but they are irrelevant, so they don't matter, after the pleasantries and introduction, Hana smiled and said
"It's our magazine honor to have such thrilling story, but can I ask Kazuya-sensei if you brought more volumes? So we can discuss the publishing further?"
"I have volume 2 with me here, you can print it and gave a review." he nodded, the excitement in Hana's eyes can't be hidden
"come her and copy this!" she ordered
/after reading/
"...."
Silence...
Soon, Hana collected her thought and looked st her subordinates who nodded at her, 'We must have him to agree on a contract!' that's
"Kazuya-sensei... This is our offer, we are willing to give an initial 20% royalty, if this go above our expected value, it will increase." she explained, '20% is very high, but I can see this manga potential.' Hana thought
"great, let's sign it now." Naruki nodded with smile
'Huh? I thought he would bargain? I was ready to rise it to 25% if it was necessary...' Hana frowned slightly, 'I thought he is another arrogant author... maybe he isn't...'
What Hana didn't know that even if they offered 10%, he would accept immediately,'because, the money from the manga is only a bonus, the real Price....'.
[EP: 153.45---> 153.46]
Now, some might say it's a very slight increase,'but imagine if a thousand read it? A million? Hundreds of millions?' he smiled in excitement
he already received some points from the reader from this agency, so he confirmed that the distance doesn't prevent from received them, but the closer he is, he will receive more
'But it doesn't matter, as long the story affect the reader emotions enough, I'll have my payment.' he smiled widely as he signs the contract
"happy cooperation! Naruki-sensei!" Hana smiled brightly, 'finally! Our magazine will rise' she wouldn't say the same if she saw the ending of the manga...
"Great, those two volumed will be enough for one year, Naruki-sensei can focus on his school for graduation."
"Oh I have volume 3 here too." he gave it to her and she gaped, "I had 3 years to write them and polish them, I'll have a year and half to write more."
"Thank you very much, Naruki-sensei!" all of them bowed and without shame started to read the volume immediately
'Now I'll have a constant river of money and point for a year and a half, I have quests too, what dragons and gods in front of me!' he smirked and went into black cat location...
/Yoruichi home/
*rinng*
the door opened and a grumpy chocolate skin beauty came, "who came this hour?!, ohh it's you, come in." she had a grin on her face
"Yo! Did you miss me?"
"I sure missed beating you, boy! hahaha!, now enter! I'll drill you until you can't be moving!"
"Don't threaten me with good time." Naruki chuckled, 'The grind made me addicted...how troublesome…' he smiled wryly as he entered her home, soon the pair reached the basement,
Naruki arched an eyebrow, "Are you going to look me up like a crazy Yandere?"
"Hahahaha, you wish! At least a yandere would shower you with love, I'll shower you will my fists!" she laughed heartily and opened the basement, and gave Naruki a shocked look on his face!
