My Dad is a Professional!

Another day of being well-fed and well-hydrated, and Homura had intentionally prepared more food than usual and yet still swept clean by the others!

After the meal, they cleaned up and did some housekeeping. With nothing else to do, they gathered around Haru and tried to get closer to her.

The little one wasn't unfriendly, and after a few days of being together, she would allow them to come over and touch her without avoiding them. During the usual times, she could also play with them.

"Homura-kun, how was today's material gathering?" Utaha lazily asked Homura while lying on the sofa.

Homura wiped his hands and replied.

"Wait a moment."

He then went back to his room and took out the manga he drew in the afternoon. He didn't plan to hide it because he had met several lovely girls in the afternoon and would definitely have more contact with them in the future. It would be bad if he kept it hidden now.

"I think the material gathering went quite smoothly!" He handed the manga manuscript to Utaha. "You'll understand when you read it."

Utaha showed an interested expression. She deeply understood Homura's ability to draw manga, so what kind of story would a material that satisfied him produce?

"... A new work?" Utaha unexpectedly said while looking at the content that had nothing to do with Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun.

"Of course, it's a new work. There's nothing worth drawing for the Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun or The Promised Neverland." Homura said.

At this time, everyone who had finished their work had gathered around, and Haru had also joined them, jumping into Sagiri's arms.

Hmm, maybe because Sagiri was relatively soft, the little one liked to go into her arms.

"A group of cute girls becomes idols to save their school?" Eriri muttered skeptically and then thought to herself, 'Isn't this theme... too cliche?'

"Very classic, isn't it?" Homura smiled.

Eriri pouted, "It may be classic, but there are too many works with this theme! It doesn't seem like your style, does it?"

'What style do I have?!' Homura retorted in his mind. "What if it's actually real?"

The girls froze, and they replayed Homura's words in their minds, 'What if it's actually real?'

What does that mean?

Their gaze fell on the manuscripts...

"Could it be? Is this a true story?!" Eriri lost her composure.

"Does Otonokizaka High School really exist?"

"It does. Don't tell me you guys didn't know?!"

"Is it really going to be shut down?"

"Yes."

"Are these girls' stories also true?"

"Basically, yes."

"Then it's completely different!" Eriri was getting excited. Combining manga and reality would definitely have explosive effects!

"Haha, right?!" Homura was also excited. Personally bringing the Love Livers cult to this world, he wondered how many believers he would gather. Is there any more fulfilling way to spread the gospel?

"I never expected a manga-like story to actually happen in real life!" Utaha sighed, "So, today, Ayano took you to Otonokizaka to gather material?"

Homura confirmed, "Yes, Ayano is indeed sensitive to manga. After she learned about this, she communicated with the school for a long time before she got me the opportunity to draw a manga for it."

"A responsible editor indeed!" Nanami thought that having an editor like Homura's was really great.

"Speaking of editors, I can't help but think of Maeno from Monthly Girls Nozaki-kun again!" Eriri commented, "He's just too annoying and poisonous!"

"Do you guys think that if Monthly Girls Nozaki-kun becomes a hit, it will cause a major shake-up in the editorial circle?" Eriri suddenly proposed a viewpoint.

Homura was also stunned, "You have quite the imagination, but it shouldn't happen, right? Otherwise, won't I be cursed out by those editors who were fired?"

"You're not denying the possibility of Monthly Girls Nozaki-kun becoming a hit?" Eriri quipped, "What happened to your principles?"

Homura proudly declared, "Since that day when I released the forbidden magic at the maid cafe, my principles have disappeared."

Eriri: "..."

'Is this something to be proud of? It seems like you don't have principles anymore!'

"Homura-kun, can I ask you a question?" Utaha held the manuscript and shook it after asking.

Homura was waiting for her to ask and generously replied, "No problem, feel free to ask!"

*Cough* Utaha cleared her throat, "Earlier, Sawamura-san asked you if the stories of these girls were true, and you said they were basically true..."

"Basically, yes," Homura corrected.

Utaha was taken aback, and the corner of her mouth twitched as she said, "Well then, they're basically true."

"What I want to ask is... are the appearances of these girls also real?"

Homura gave his answer, "Yes, it's idol manga after all. If it's not real, won't the readers beat me up?"

Huh? Unexpectedly honest! Well, let's not dwell on the matter of the cute girls anymore, but the reality does pose some problems!

"Wouldn't there be any bad consequences? Like fans constantly flooding their school or affecting the lives of these high school students?" Utaha was worried about this aspect, as mishandling such things could lead to unpredictable consequences if there were crazy fans.

Homura nodded and said, "It is indeed a problem, but since we are promoting the school, it's inevitable that the school will become a holy land for fans. This is also their goal anyway."

Everyone agreed with this, and they all understood that it was inevitable, but what about the family?

"As for the family, it's just Kosaka Honoka's family now, but they run a shop, so even if fans don't go, others will!"

"So I simply blurred the address and store name."

"As for the safety issue, I'll talk to my dad about it when the time comes! He's the professional for this kind of thing!" Homura explained his plan briefly.

Megumi, Utaha, and Eriri remembered the night when Homura made a call after beating up a few gangster.

Feeling relieved, they nodded in agreement.

Seeing that everyone understood, Nanami didn't want to be left out, so she asked nervously, "Why do you feel relieved when you mention Homura-kun's father?"

Megumi understood what Nanami meant and explained briefly what had happened that night.

Nanami was surprised, "Huh? You actually encountered such a dangerous situation?! That's really dangerous!"

"Yeah! We were scared at the time and were about to call the police, but Homura solved it in just a few moves!" Eriri laughed.

"I didn't expect Homura-kun to be so powerful!" Nanami looked up at him in admiration.

Homura felt proud but still modestly said, "It was only because they were drunk that I was able to solve it so easily at that time."

"But I'm not the same person as I was back then."

Was that just a humble statement? He's still trying to show off, isn't he?

"Then how did Homura-kun's father handle the situation?" Nanami asked curiously.

Everyone fell silent, unsure of how to explain it to Nanami.
