LONER AND JULIET: CHAPTER 8 – FEELINGS

Chapter 8 – Feelings
TL: Cryarc
Editor: Puissansa, Krrizis, Mysterious Editor No.3
 
 
Somehow, by riding on the momentum, I'm going to buy a light novel for Asakura-san. Should I casually ask about what book she might want? (Andou)
 
「Asakura-san, do you have any light novels you've wanted to buy or maybe a title you're interested in?」
 
「Hmmm, they haven't released the book I wanted to buy yet. It's the one with serialization for it being decided recently – 『Other World Cheat Swindler (Conman) 』*. Currently I don't have anything else I'm interested in...
Ah right! Andou-kun, what books are you reading now?」
 
I might as well use this opportunity to ask what light novel Andou-kun likes. If he doesn't mind, I'll ask him to buy it for me. If I do that, after I've finished reading the book we can naturally exchange impressions about it! See, I'm a genius! (Asakura)
 
「M-me? Currently I'm reading this.」
「Which one... eh, 『Saint of Greed』*? This is, if I'm not mistaken it's a novel from Narou which has a female protagonist, right?」
「Yep, even though this is about a female protagonist, this is quite interesting. Because she didn't have any greed, her life was short and she died while regretting that she couldn't stop conflicts in the world. This time, to erase conflicts from the world she is reincarnated as a demon lord who takes everything from the world for herself and forcefully makes people happy, it's that kind of story.」
 
「Hee, it seems surprisingly interesting from the synopsis... Ne! Is there anything else?」
「Uuh... ah, umm…..」
 
Eh? Andou-kun is suddenly panicking, I wonder why? (Asakura)
 
C-crap... I unintentionally became nervous because Asakura-san suddenly smiled at me. Loners have weak resistance against pretty girls who treats them nicely – at this rate I will fall in love with her... Even if fall for her, it's pretty much impossible for the most beautiful girl in school to be willing to date someone like me... Right now I have to maintain my composure by thinking that it's impossible!
 
Fuh, calm down, me... She is not a pretty girl. Right, she is a gremlin. Gremlin, gremlin, she's a gremlin... Alright! (Andou)
 
「I know right. Next one, even though I've only read this recently, it's interesting.」
 
Hmm? Andou-kun is returning to his usual self. I wonder what happened just now? (Asakura)
 
 
「What is it? 『The Villainess Trains the Prince from Enemy Country』* what is this... isn't this a porn book...? 」
「It's not that kind of book! 」
「Sorry sorry, but the title is... 」
「Well… I admit that the title is misleading. But, considering that this is for all ages, there is no scene like that at all...  This is a rom-com story about the protagonist who got reincarnated as a villainess inside an otome-game world. To avoid bad ends, she needed to rehabilitate the evil prince from the enemy country with whips, aiming for happy end.」
「Hee, after hearing about the content it seems interesting. But, it looks like Andou-kun reads stories aimed at girls, isn't that embarrassing? 」
「Embarrassing? 」
「Andou-kun seems unashamed though... Look, isn't it awkward to read these kinds of light novels at school?  It's a different matter if it's just normal light novel, but among the books Andou-kun reads at school there are also those light novels which are definitely aimed at girls based from the cover, with shoujo manga style illustrations inside of it too, right? I mean, it's embarrassing being seen by other people while reading that kind of stuff... isn't it? 」
 
I've been curious about that even from way back then... Rather, that's the reason why I'm interested in Andou-kun in the first place. I'm too embarrassed to admit that I'm a light novel otaku so at school I'm hiding my hobby of reading light novels. But the first time I saw Andou-kun, he was boldly reading a light novel with the title 『Little Sister Will Marry Big Brother!』* in a transparent vinyl cover in class alone.
 
At that moment, looking at him like that shocked me, as if I was struck by thunder 『Eh, if you're putting a cover on it why are you not hiding the illustration!? 』『Rather, isn't that embarrassing? 』 and so on. That's why I wanted to know why he could boldly read light novels in class like that. (Asakura)
 
Even though Asakura-san's question seems like a mockery... Most likely, she didn't mean it that way.  I know that by looking at her eyes. The way she looks at me when I'm reading light novels for girls is not the sneering glare used by rotten normies. Instead... She looks like she's envious of me who reads it.
So I have to answer this earnestly. (Andou)
 
「No.  I don��t think it's embarrassing at all. 」
「...」
 
I've said it clearly. (Andou)
 
「Why is it like that? 」
「For example――Asakura-san reads 『Hachinan Tensei』* right? Was that interesting? 」
「Y-yes.」
「Then, if a stranger said 『Hachinan Tensei is so lame-』, how would you feel? 」
「Beat them to death. 」
「...…」
 
Even though I asked 『How would you feel?』, she answered from the question of 『what will you do』. As expected of a gremlin. (Andou)
 
「Ahaha... But I'm also the same.」
「Eh.」
「If a stranger is laughing at my favorite light novel, I think I will go 『Don't fuck with meee! 』 I mean, those guys don't know how interesting that light novel is, right? I like light novels. Therefore, I think the authors who wrote light novels are 『Awesome』and I never thought reading it is 『Embarrassing』. 」
「...」
 
「After all, the one who knows how interesting that light novel is, is us who read it, so if we thought that it's 『Embarrassing』 then that means we're being rude to the author, right? So I'm reading light novels boldly. Resolutely conveying 『The light novels I'm reading are very interesting, you know! It's not something to be ashamed of! 』like that. 」
「... I see, you're right. 」
 
I wonder how embarrassing I must be. It's just like what Andou-kun said. Up until now, for the sake of protecting my own pride, I've been hiding that I like light novels.  As a result of prioritizing such a small pride, I never admitted to Andou-kun that I liked light novels. However, I chose to be ignorant of it and instead indulged in selfishness by thinking things like 『Why is he not noticing me? 』 or 『Talk to me! 』... (Asakura)
 
「Ah! Of course, this is only for my own self-satisfaction, it's not like I'm denying people who hides that they like light novels! After all, we have different circumstances, such as status and how much we attract people's attention... You see, because I'm a 『loner』, what people think about me isn't that important.」
「Andou-kun, it's fine. 」
「Eh...? 」
「I've decided.  I won't hide it anymore... I will confess my real feelings only with you. 」
「A, Asakura... san」
 
Right, I will say it clearly to Andou-kun that 『I like light novels.』 So I can be in the same position as him... Properly straighten up and confidently say 『I like light novels! 』
It's fine... I can say it. I've been practicing this line every night before sleeping because I'm sure I have to say it in the future... 『I really like light novels, as much as Andou-kun!』 Excellent. (Asakura)
 
「Andou-kun.」
「Ah, yes.」
 
A-alright! S-s-s-s-say it... 『I really like light novels, as much as Andou-kun!』『I  really like light novels, as much as Andou-kun!』『I really like light novels, as much as Andou-kun!』 (Asakura)
What is this! Suddenly it's turning into something dramatic, what will she say to me!? (Andou)
 
 
「I really like Andou-kun! 」
「...Eh?」
「...Nn?」
 
Huh, just now... What was that? (Asakura & Andou)
 

"Mika and I just happened to be shopping around here, and we thought that this store seemed interesting, so we decided to check it out. We didn’t expect to see you here," Chiaki said naturally.
She made it sound so believable. Mika, who was standing beside her, chose to remain silent.
"Oh... what a coincidence," Seiji muttered, still dazed.
"Who’s this beautiful girl sitting across from you? Are you on a date?" Chiaki turned to Yukari and smiled.
"She’s—" Seiji started.
"I’m Yukari Asamiya, from Year 1, Class 3." Yukari was no longer smiling; there was a sharp look in her eyes as she faced the tomboy. Hello, it's nice to meet you... You don’t know me, but I know you two, Chiaki Wakaba... and Mika Uehara-san."
"You know us?" Chiaki's smile faded when faced with Yukari’s imposing manner.
"Yes, many people know you... the two good friends that are often by Harano-san’s side," Yukari said lightly, placing extra emphasis on ‘good friends.’
Chiaki's smile looked rather forced, and her eyes shot sparks. Yukari looked directly into Chiaki's eyes, radiating an imposing aura.
Mika remained silent; her eyes swam with a wistful look.
Seiji was rendered speechless. Was this... the legendary hellish battleground between women? Why did it become like this!?
It wasn’t difficult for him to come up with the answer. He only told about the date... whoops, the time and place of the meeting with Yukari to one person.
For Chiaki and Mika to show up here precisely at this time, it was highly likely that they received information from that person.
Even though it might have been a coincidence, Seiji felt that... this was most likely the case.
‘Shika-chan...’ He felt somewhat conflicted as he thought about how his adopted younger sister had probably created this situation.
He was about to speak up and say something, but the purple-haired girl beat him to it.
"Since we coincidentally met here, why don’t you sit down together with us? You two are Harano-san’s good friends, and I've wanted to have a good chat with you, so this is an excellent opportunity."
Yukari’s words were very direct; they didn’t seem to contain any trace of falsity at all.
Chiaki blinked at this. ‘As expected of the ‘Princess,’ she mused.
Just this short first meeting with Yukari caused Chiaki to understand why Yukari had a nickname which she could only inwardly exclaim at.
‘Mika, you have such an incredible opponent.’ Chiaki glanced at her good friend before sitting down at the table.
Mika sat down as well. Both of them ordered coffees from the waiter that came by.
After that, everyone remained silent for a little while.
"I was just chatting with Asamiya-san about light novels... what we felt about them after reading," Seiji said, breaking the silence. "When I was purchasing light novels at the bookstore, we coincidentally ran into each other, and I learned that she was also really fond of light novels, so we arranged a time to chat about them."
"I see... I thought that you two were having a date, but in the end, it's just communication between friends about a common interest."
Chiaki strongly emphasized the last few words of her sentence. It was a counterattack against Yukari.
Yukari smiled faintly. "Indeed, Harano-san and I have some common interests. I’m very happy about this and had lots of fun chatting with him earlier. By the way, Wakaba-san and Uehara-san, do you two like light novels? What novels have you read?"
Yukari made another stab. Her riposte was rather difficult to deal with for Chiaki.
If she had to answer, she would say, "Of course I like light novels," but her passion was only at a normal level. It was probably not even close to Yukari’s or Seiji’s level.
Chiaki wasn’t aware just how much Yukari liked light novels, but she could sense her imposing manner, which seemed to say "You two aren’t even close to being on my level."
The purple-haired girl’s eyes revealed self-confidence and resolution, and she was surrounded by an atmosphere which wouldn’t be shaken by anything whatsoever.
‘I can’t just answer her like this and let her control the flow.’ Although this thought passed through her head, Chiaki didn’t know how she should answer.
"I don’t like light novels," a voice said calmly. It was Mika. She looked at Yukari and answered her question calmly.
This was the first sentence she had spoken since entering the manga coffee cafe, and her response surprised Yukari.
"That’s because I’ve never even read light novels before, and only learned about them recently, so I can’t say that I like them," Mika continued. "But... I like the light novel that Seigo wrote," Mika said in a resolute tone, looking towards Seiji.
"Harano-san wrote a light novel?" Yukari was surprised yet again.
"Yep. Seigo didn’t tell you? His story was published in a magazine, and Chiaki and I both read it and thought that it was great." Mika looked towards Yukari and smiled.
There seemed to be a strong force behind her smile.
"I really enjoyed his short novel, and the only drawback was that I thought it was too short; it wasn't enough for me to read at all. I’ve already become Seigo’s fan. In the future, I’ll read anything that Seigo writes, and I’ll like his other stories as well." There was a passionate fervor in Mika’s voice.
Yukari’s expression changed as she noticed Mika’s passion.
Chiaki also noticed and inwardly exclaimed: ‘Mika... you really have changed. In a good way.’
Chiaki was proud of her friend’s growth.
Seiji also felt Mika’s passion and was slightly moved. "Mika..."
"Seigo, I’m really looking forward to your next novel... before you finish your new novel, could you recommend some good stories to me? I’ll read them all." Mika said that to Seiji as her face began flushing red in embarrassment.
Even though she had matured, some things were still the same. She still became shy easily.
She was relying solely on her willpower to not be surpassed by her opponent. She expressed her true feelings confidently and without hesitation. After she said these words, her instinct to be embarrassed reasserted itself.
‘So cute.’ Seiji felt that the shy, embarrassed girl in front of him was rather cute and couldn't help but feel moved
"Okay... I’ll give you some recommendations; I hope that you will enjoy them," he said without thinking.
When he regained his senses, he discovered that he had already given her a promise.
Both Yukari and Chiaki saw how he reacted. The purple-haired girl’s expression turned slightly grimmer, and the tomboy inwardly whistled.
‘Nice one, Mika!’
This helped ease them into the topic of conversation, and the most importantly of all, it attracted Seiji’s attention.
This was a victory.
However...
"It’s wonderful that Uehara-san is willing to join us light novel fans in becoming one," Yukari said. "I’d also like to hear Harano-san’s recommended light novels, and see if there are any differences from the ones I would recommend, and we can chat about these."
The purple-haired girl instantly reorganized and continued her attacks.
Chiaki scrutinized Yukari’s expression and judged that she was just the same as earlier; her imposing manner hadn't decreased in the slightest.
‘As expected, she’s an incredible person.’
They continued to chat, and the girls exchanged many verbal spars.
...
When Seiji finally left the manga coffee cafe, he was in a happy mood.
At the very beginning, it seemed to him like this place would transform into a hellish battleground between women, but that seemed to disappear after they chatted a bit, and everyone seemed to be having fun... on the surface.
Yep, on the surface.
What about in actuality? Seiji didn’t know, nor did he want to think too deeply about it. To him, he had fun chatting about light novels, and that was enough for him.
After this, he figured he would go around with Mika and Chiaki and find a place to eat lunch together.
Right now, though—
"Asamiya-san, I had fun chatting with you today. See you next time."
"I had fun as well. Let’s have another coffee together sometime. See you later."
Mika and Chiaki smiled as they said goodbye to the purple-haired girl; it was as if it had been decided from the very beginning that they would split up after leaving the manga coffee cafe.
Yukari kept her smile. "It was great to meet and chat with the two of you; you’re both really nice people... I look forward to our next meeting."
The three beautiful girls exchanged smiles; it was a beautiful scene for any bystander.
Only Seiji, who was close to them, felt as if he could detect something invisible clashing between them in midair.
‘It’s just my mistaken impression, yep, nothing but a mistaken impression. They’re just saying friendly goodbyes to each other; there’s nothing else to it.
'But... is that really the case?’ a voice asked from the deepest part of his heart. ‘Just what am I supposed to think of it then, bastard!’ Seiji shouted in his mind.
"Harano-san..." Yukari called out to him softly, snapping him out of his daze.

Chapter 8. Literature club (2)

"You don't have those books here."

"Yeah, we didn't have the books you are looking for."

Ren sighed as he looked at the library committee member.

He was currently in the library trying to find some of the novels he wanted to read.

As he was short on money, he thought that he could borrow the novels from the library.

That's why he visited the library after school but the result was unexpected.

The books he was looking for had either been taken away by someone or they are not available in the library.

"Why don't you have those famous novels?"

When Ren asked that question, the library committee member just shrugged his hands and said.

"Do you think the library would have all the books?"

"Didn't the library should at least have some famous novels?"

"I am only responsible for taking care of books, not buying them and we do have some novels if you want to read them."

Ren just sighed hearing the answer. He knew that the library have some novels but he had already read those. 

As Ren was about to leave the library, the library committee member said.

"If you really want to read those novels, I knew the place where you can find them."

"Really?"

"Yeah, you could find those books in the literature club."

"Literature club!"

Ren hadn't heard of the literature club but from its name, he can tell what kind of club it was.

"Many people don't know but there are many novels in the literature club. The teacher in charge of that club like to collect books. You could even find some light novels there."

"Can you tell me where I could find the literature club?"

"Go to the third floor. The last room there is the literature club."

The library committee member said as he started reading his book. Ren just thanked him and left. He didn't wanted to disturb him more.

* * *

"It really has many books."

Ren muttered as he entered the literature club. There were many bookshelves full of books in the room. 

Many papers were also scattered on the floor and the room wasn't very tidy but Ren didn't care about it.

His eyes were on the books. 

'There really are all kinds of novels here.'

There were almost all of the famous novels in the bookshelves. There were also novels of his favourite authors.

"Why are there light novels in the literature club?"

Ren muttered as he noticed some volumes of light novels. He was confused as to why there were light novels in the literature club but he didn't think about it much.

He was here to find some novels to read not to figure out why there were light novels in the literature club.

'Ah, here it is.'

As Ren was looking around, he finally found the book he was looking for. 

«Undeserving»

It was a book that was written by Nagami Yuu, one of his favourite authors. He was looking for that book to find some inspiration for his story.

As the setting of his book and «Undeserving» was same, Ren thought he could gain some inspiration from it.

Although the setting of both the books were the same as they were both the stories of geniuses, the plot was vastly different.

"Can I take it without asking anyone?"

Although Ren had found the book, he was hesitant to take it back as it will be considered theft If he took it without asking anyone.

'Slide!'

As he was thinking of whether to take the book or not, the door suddenly opened.

"Ah, what are you doing here….Amano-kun?"

"Nakai sensei?!"

It was Nakai sensei and a glasses wearing boy who entered the room. 

"Why is that book in your hand Amano-kun?"

Nakai sensei asked as he glanced towards the book in Ren's hand.

"Ah, no, I was just thinking of borrowing it for a bit?"

Ren answered hurriedly. He was in a awkward situation as he was seen taking the book.

He knew he had not done something wrong but the timing of the situation made him feel like he was caught stealing.

"Oh, you are just borrowing the book?"

Nakai sensei said as he came close to Ren and put a hand on his shoulder. His face was smiling but Ren felt that it was a devil smiling in front of him.

"Yes, I was just borrowing it for a bit?"

"Really? You are sure you aren't stealing instead of borrowing?"

"Yeah, I am sure."

"But you know the books in the literature club can't be 'borrowed' without the permission of the teacher in charge and that would be me."

"Huh?!"

Ren was surprised when he heard Nakai sensei's words. He really didn't knew that Nakai sensei was in charge of the literature club.

When he think about it, it also made sense, Nakai sensei was the literature teacher. It made sense for him to be in charge of the literature club.

"If I think about it, I hadn't gave you any permission to borrow a book, right."

"Ahh?!"

Ren just groaned instead of any response. He can't think of any response.

"Um, can you tell me what is going in?"

As they were talking among themselves, the bespectacled boy spoke.

"Oh, It isn't much Himuro-kun, Amano here is our newest member "

"Huhhh?!"

Both Ren and the bespectacled boy named Himuro shrieked loudly at Nakai sensei's words.

"What are you saying? When did I joined the literature club?"

"Do you want me to report to the discipline committee that you were stealing books?"

"Ah! Are you blackmailing me?"

"No, I will not use those petty methods. It is a equivalent exchange. You can borrow those books without any permission if you joined the literature club. Don't you think it is a good thing for you."

"Huh!"

Ren fell in  thoughts at Nakai sensei words, it was true that he will be able to borrow books from the literature club if he joined it but he had to give up his free time if he really did that.

"Is it really worth it?"

Ren thought about it for some time and after thinking about the prices of novels in the market, he finally made up his mind to join the club.

It wasn't like he had to give up something valuable for it, it will only take his free time.

"So, what do you think about it?"

"Ah, I will join the club."

Ren said as he softly sighed and Nakai sensei had a huge smile on his face when he heard Ren's response.

"Haha, that's the answer I was looking for. Now, clean up the literature club room as your first task."

"What?!"

"Didn't you heard me. I said to clean the room. Don't you think it is too dirty for a room. As a club member, it's your duty to clean it. Himuro-kun, here will help you."

Nakai sensei said as he left the club room with a smile on his face.

"Nakai sensei is somewhat weird but he's good at teaching and he is very knowledgeable about literature. By the way, Nice to meet you, I am Himuro Kouji."

"Amano Ren, it's nice to meet you too."

Ren said with a smile but he was frowning inwardly thinking about his future days with the devil teacher.

Fame, wealth, prestige, genius, destruction, despair, loss and failure.

Those are the eight words which describes Ren's life completely.

He was hailed as a genius but his arrogance led him to despair. From a genius, he became a failure.

He was just struggling with his life when fate gave him a second chance.

Now, what will he do after he found himself waking up in another world.


When I was in middle school, a friend introduced me to anime. The first anime I watched was probably between Highschool DxD or Soul Eater, aside from the Naruto episodes I would stumble upon on Cartoon Network. 

I loved watching anime. The animation, music, voices, and the world that was built opened my mind to crazy fantasies and dreams. I never thought I'd get into manga because it didn't seem as interesting.

One day, I heard that the Bleach manga was ending and by then, I'd watched literally hundreds of anime. Bleach isn't in my top 5 but it was still an anime I enjoyed a lot, and there was still more to the story I didn't know about in the manga. So I read it...

That's when I downloaded an app to read manga. Some time in either my last few years in high school or early post high school, and boy did I have a long list.

I read so many different things like manga, manhua, and manhwa. First off, my favorite manga became Re:Monster and when I got to see stories made by Chinese and Koreans... I had so many other worlds to explore. 

Tales of Demons and Gods, Solo Leveling, Omniscient Reader and The Last Human... they enthralled me. Reading them opened my eyes, what I always wanted is to explore new worlds, and after reading tons of manga. My mind was slightly open to reading light novels, I just never thought I could keep myself entertained reading light novels.

Out of the blue, something made me down load an app for light novels. Wanting to give them a chance, I placed many on a list before deciding which to read first. My first read, was My Vampire System... it was pretty good but some places felt like they were dragging on. So once I got to chapter 50 or so. I moved on to see what else light novels had in store.

That's when I came across one of my favorites today. Fourth Prince's Debauchery, it was a drug, I couldn't stop reading it. 

That's when I really got hooked on reading Webnovels, the stories people make, the worlds that are built. I loved reading them; I'm still new to reading webnovels, so I haven't read much. Neither have I ever written a story outside of school projects... but one day, I want to write a story and build my own world for others to read and we can explore that world together.


I just wanna end this by saying, I don't really hate any series, I just love to sit back and enjoy the story of an mc as it plays out. Be it action, adventure, fantasy, slice of life, romance, ecchi, and so on. I watched it all and enjoyed most of it, there isn't many series I'd give a rating below a 6-7 on a scale of 1-10. That goes with the manga and webnovels I've read.

These are just my thoughts, so... I hope you don't read me...

Chapter 2. Back to the starting line (2)

Light novels in this world are quite similar to his previous world.

There were many similar genres like isekai, battle academy and mechs but the story in this world make more sense.

Light novels in his previous world often has plot holes but in this world, the plot holes are minimum.

But the overall quality of light novels are still less when compared to his world.

Most of the stories are of the harem and fantasy genre but there were not many novels he liked.

Rei was looking for a classic novel like «Sword art online» or «Konosuba» but there weren't many classics.

Although he found some good novels, they weren't able to captivate him like the light novels from his world.

As he was not finding any good novels, he started searching information about the publishing houses in Sakura island.

He found out that there are three major publishing houses in regards to light novels. 

The first was <Syotsu publishing>, it was a famous publishing house and has quite a reputation in the industry.

It also has produced many works and many promising authors wanted their books to publish in this company.

The second was the <GM publishers>, it was a publishing house which had grown in the last few years. 

It has published some bestselling novels which also had gotten adapted to animes.

The third was the <Shino medias>, it was a newly established publishing house which was just started 2 years ago but it had produced some good works.

It's best novel has been the «Mech contractors», a story about a 15 year old mechanic who got transported in the future.

The novel has been made into a manga and a anime series has also been announced.

That was the information Rei was able to find about the publishing houses and the novels.

He also noted down some information about the top literature books and some light novels, he will buy when he got his pocket money.

After doing that, he noticed that the day had already ended.

After eating dinner, he moved to his bed to sleep but he wasn't able to sleep.

It was a daily occurrence, Rei wasn't able to sleep properly as he was afraid that when he wake up tomorrow, he will be in his own world.

That was Rei's fear as he didn't wanted to go to his old life.

He started thinking about different things to stop him from sleeping but he wasn't able to stop himself from sleeping.

Like that, several days pass away. It was the start of his vacation, so there was no school. 

Rei was able to laze around everyday and think about his future.

He will sometimes read books he had bought from his savings and contemplate if he wanted to take the same path or not.

Rei knew he wanted to be a writer but he was too fearful to do it, he was scared of failure.

At one side he wanted to be a writer but the other side was telling him to be a star.

The previous host dreams and desires were still with Rei and he can't do anything about it.

There was a war going on in his insides. 

Rei started to notice that he would subconsciously always pick up a pen. His instincts were telling him to write but he didn't knew what to write.

"Ah, let's take the chance"

Finally, after struggling with it for some days, he finally made up his resolve to write.

He didn't knew if he will succeed or not but he will accept any result.

It was his second chance, he didn't wanted to waste it away.

As for becoming a star, he decided to take it one by one.

Now, the question was to what to write, Rei had several stories in his head but he didn't knew which to choose.

He also didn't knew if he will able to write like before. Because of alcohol and drugs, his writing had degraded and he wasn't sure if he will able to write like before.

That's why he decided to write famous novels to make his writing better.

Rei didn't get any cheat from his reincarnation but he did get something.

It was his mind, which was changed to become something like a memory chip.

Rei can literally remember everything that had happened in his previous life.

Not in brief but in full detail. If he tried to remember a book, he will able to recall all the lines of the book in a serial order. He was even able to tell where the commas would be.

He can recall every book, movie or song he had read or seen in full detail.

It was like his brain was a computer.

That's why Rei was able to easily copy the famous novels he had read in his previous life.

He started copying novels like «Harry Potter and the philosopher stone» and «Your name».

That's how he spent his remaining vacation. Copying works from his world and and writing his novel alongside it.

It was tiring to write everyday but he got used to it and the main reason he was doing it was because he was enjoying it.

He didn't have many friends, so he spent his vacation in his room only occasionally going out for his meals.

Although his parents were worried about him, he didn't care as he was really enjoying it.

He poured every bit of frustration he had with his life in his original work.

And after writing and revising for a whole month, his first book was finally completed.

"Okay, I will send it now."
 
Since the writing software on the Phone and computer are linked, what he wrote yesterday can be found on his phone too, which was convenient. Mu Fan selected the words and send them directly to Tomoya.
 
In any case, Tomoya was a world-renowned Blogger, so he should be able to see the cons of a book and whether I could make a hit in the market or not.
 
Tomoya was also an Otaku, he usually loved reading novels, watching anime and playing games. He made comments on his block every now and then about light novels which received support from many fans. He became a well-known blogger for AVG information. It can be said that he has read countless light novels and his understanding of them is quite profound.
 
Today, since he knew Mu Fan as they worked together on a restaurant before, he didn't mind helping Mu Fan since the latter just started writing. He wanted to point out every mistake and give Mu Fan some guidance, but when he saw Mu Fan's novel, he was actually quite surprised.
 
"The story of <<Accel World>> occurs in the future when everyone has a microcomputer called NeuroLinker that connect them to the network directly and because of some program, the user can accelerate their brainwaves to the point that time seems to stop."
 
Although the story was simple, from the perspective of an experienced person who knows about novels, this kind of novel isn't easy to be written by someone who just started writing.
 
As soon as he saw this simple introduction, Tomoya lost interest in continuing. The subject of Science Fiction wasn't that popular these days, and from the nerve connection device they have the setting shouldn't be that good.
 
But as he looked down, Tomoya's brows wrinkled.
 
Haruyuki "Haru" Arita is a short, overweight boy who is frequently ridiculed by delinquents at the Umesato Junior High School. Using his Neuro Linker to escape the torment of real life, he logs onto the school's Local Network cyberspace where he always plays virtual squash alone.
 
In today's novels and Animes, Taking fat people as the starting point of a story is definitively a big taboo. After all, people who read novel can probably imagine their favorite characters in their hearts, but if the protagonist is a fat person, I'm afraid that people won't be able to persist on reading.
 
Not to mention that fat man is relatively weak and incapable of doing anything except being bullied.
 
…
 
However, because of the protagonist being so weak, He wanted to see his counter-attack to resolve all of the bullyings. As Tomoya continued to read, He didn't notice that he was completely Engrossed in reading.
 
Although he was weak, his personality was the greatest strength this novel had.
 
The next day, Kuroyukihime, the school's popular, highly intellectual and attractive female Student Council Vice-President added him to the ranks of Burst Linkers, a secret program that is able to accelerate the human cognitive process to the point at which time appears to stop. And using this same program Kuroyukihime helped him get rid of the bullies.
 
Haruyuki soon learns that Brain Burst is more than just a program, but an Augmented Reality Massively Multiplayer Online (ARMMO) Fighting Game where people fight each other in fierce duels in order to obtain Burst Points which can be spent for acceleration abilities in the real world. Kuroyukihime then enlists Haruyuki's help in reaching Level 10…
 
 
The story comes to an end with more than 40,000 words.
 
After watching all the current plots, Tomoya was completely stunned. This kind of novel where you can accelerate and affect the world can't be found in any novel nowadays. Tomoya wanted to see what happens next but that's all there is now.
 
As a well-known blogger, Tomoya looked at countless novels, from what he just read he can predict that Accel world is definitively a masterpiece. And because it's the first masterpiece of it's kind it can get a lot of success.
 
"Mu Fan, This novel was written so well that I couldn't think of you as a new writer. What happens next in the story?"
 
Tomoya praised Mu Fan and wanted to know what happens next as he couldn't wait.
 
Mu Fan who was inside the Cooking club room saw Tomoya's reply and couldn't help but smile as he expected this from the start.
 
This novel, after all, is one of it's kind, you can see the Protagonist as a knight who wanted to protect his princess but because he is too weak so he continues to struggle and grow for her sake.
 
Moreover, this novel was a masterpiece even in his previous world where there were more Novels than the ones found here.
 
New Write?
 
Mu Fan picked his eyebrows. He wrote for four or five years before, but he wasn't in this world when he did so.
 
"If you know what will happen, it won't be as interesting when you read it. A qualified Author won't spoil for his readers."
 
Mu Fan smiled and sent the message.
 
"Oh, that's right."
 
Tomoya was too eager to continue reading the story that he forgot that people hated spoilers in Anime and novels. Then he thought about what Mu Fan said before and asked: "Mu Fan, Are you going to publish this ASCII Media Works? I do know an author there, if you want we can go together this Saturday, I will introduce you."
 
"Okay, Actually, I'm preparing to participate in the new comer's competition that ASCII Media Works is holding. Now that you know someone there, let's go on Saturday."
 
"That's good then the follow-up story should be written quickly. If I can't read it quickly I will die."
 
"Relax, I won't let you die."
 
…
 
Mu Fan finished his talk with Tomoya and started writing his novel again. At this time Asuna came over and took a look at the text that was being typed rapidly on the phone and asked In amazement: "Mu Fan, You… Are you writing a novel?"
 
"Yeah."
 
Mu Fan nodded and remembered that Asuna was singing a song from an anime and he couldn't help but ask: "Do you like reading light novels?"
 
"My Family has always brought many famous books for me to read. I was really tired of reading them! So when I have little free time, I go read some light novels to relax. Just like "Koi Kaze" the light novel that I recently read."
 
Asuna said so and went to the opposite chair in front of Mu Fan and sat there. She held her chin and looked at Mu Fan curiously while her two peaks were resting on the table.
 
Asuna is a beauty recognized in the school as a Goddess, It's not far that she will turn into a completely hot stunning beauty.
 
"Mu Fan, what is the name of your novel?" Asuna asked in a curious tone.
 
Upon hearing Asuna's question, Mu Fan quickly moved his gaze from her peaks and honestly said: "It's called Accel World."
 
"Can I see?"
 
"It's not complete yet as I just started writing it. When I write some more I will give it to you so you can read it."
 
He really didn't have any problem in Asuna reading it, it's just it's still too short as he didn't write that much yet. Also, Accel world's story is somewhat slow. She will have to wait for a while.
 
"Well then, you definitively must let me see it when you finish writing it." Hearing what Mu Fan aid, Asuna nodded.
 
"Ok, no problem at all." Mu Fan smiled and when he was about to say something, Mu Fan heard some commotion at the door of the club behind him. The two turned to see what's going on.
 
At the entrance, there was a petite girl dressed in a brown blouse and a plaid skirt. Her hair was wine-red with a bat-shaped hairpin on her head and also she had a tiger tooth on her mouth which looked really cute. The girl came in as she swaggered toward the table and sat down. She raised her head up and looked at Mu Fan with a proud smile and said.
 
"I am the great Devil Satania, The person who unified Hell, Human beings, come on, Give me a Plain noodle bowl from the sign you put outside!"
 
"Puff!"
 
Hearing this sentence, the water in Mu Fan's mouth was sprayed out. He turned his head and saw Asuna looking at him.
 
The two looked at each other seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes, and then turned toward the girl while looking at her with pity…

After crossing over to another world which seemed to be a fusion between many anime worlds, The Fantasy System was unlocked for Mu Fan. After finishing the tasks given by the system, Fantasy points are given which allows him to gain access to the Fantasy store that was full of daily talents and more.

Yuuki Asuna: You know how to cook a lot of dishes. Can you teach me?

Sagiri: I don’t know anyone called Eromanga-Sensei.

Many more characters and interesting plots await us.

"Then, I'll send the text to your emails."
Kimura Kazuki grinned at the sight of this. He did retain their contact information when he was their home tutor.
Soon, the four people received the mail.
Although Akino sounded unimpressed, being an amateur of Anime, Comic, and Games (ACG), although she hasn't written any of her own light novels yet, she read novels regularly. It was her spiritual food, her whole body would feel uncomfortable if she did not flip through a few pages in a single day.
However… her mouth twitched involuntarily when she saw the book titled Loading File Of Tokyo.
It was probably another light novel which utilized mind-reading ability to fall in love. By the time it was put on sale, they could include a few illustrations in the novel and sell the illustrations with a bunch of toilet paper.
Nowadays, toilet paper novels were increasing in number.
Since the novel named Re: An Alien Life Starting from Scratch became a hit, not only did light novels featuring another world increase, but this type of life resetting theme had increased as well, overwhelming and overloading the readers' aesthetic sense.
While teasing about it, Akino downloaded the novel and began reading raptly. Kimura Kazuki was just sitting right in front of her. If he could just find an excuse to bully her on the pretext of her reckless reading... 
The four sisters read quickly as there was only one chapter. If there was anyone else who wanted them to review a novel with only one chapter, they would probably refuse and despised it while they were at it. Especially Furuhashi Akino, she would even scold a few words.
Natsui was the first to finish the novel, she raised her head slightly and took a glance at the others, her eyes met Harunaka's in an instant.
"How was it? Good? "
"How do I know...I have never read a novel before. If I tell you that this is my first time reading a light novel, would you believe it?"
"Yes. This is my first time reading a novel, too, but I find it quite interesting."
"It is not bad, there is a lot of suspense. But… to know whether it is good enough, we still have to ask Akino and Fuyuno."
They communicated with their eyes for a moment then shifted their gaze toward Akino and Fuyuno.
Needless to say, Akino was an expert in ACG, she would definitely be able to provide a thoughtful analysis later on; they could only call for her help.
Of course, Fuyuno had always wanted to become a voice actor. She had also taken up light novels and animated shows. Speaking about the understanding of light novels and animated shows, she was much more professional than Akino.
Harunaka and Natsui made eye contact again, realizing that the eyesight of Kimura Kazuki was turning toward them, they were frightened and put an act on reading the novel.
Obviously, they were afraid that the other side would ask them questions, they really had no idea on how to answer questions regarding novels. They had a pretty good impression of this single chapter novel before them, but they were worried if this was an illusion coming from their first experience of light novel reading.
After all, Akino had mentioned that it was normal for a person to be immediately fascinated when they first read a novel. On the first read, no matter how bad the writing skill, plot, and storyline were, people would be able to tolerate and accept. Only when more novels were read, then one could differentiate the good and bad of a book. As such, both of them dared not comment.
Shortly after, Akino and Fuyuno finished their readings as well.
"Not bad, but it is too short."
"Great, but it is too short."
Akino and Fuyuno spoke one after another...
Kimura Kazuki was pleasantly surprised when he heard them spoke in unison.
He noticed that both Harunaka and Natsui had finished their readings just now, but they were dodging his eyes as if it was hard for them to speak out. He thought that the novel was dull… looking at how their eyes were shining with anticipation now that Akino and Fuyuno had spoken, he finally let out a sigh of relief.
One novel could not be in favor of everyone. He was very clear of this, moreover, now there was only one chapter completed for Loading File Of Tokyo.
Akino was no longer eating. A while ago, she thought that this novel was a life resetting love story. It was out of her expectation that this was crime fiction. Instead, something came up to her mind in a second, "Is this novel going to participate in the crime fiction section of 'Let's Be A Light Novelist'?"
"Yes," Kimura Kazuki nodded.
Akino and Fuyuno appeared to understand, they had obviously heard about this essay competition.
Upon hearing this, Harunaka seemed to think of something, she spoke with a strange look, "Senior… are you the author of this novel?"
Before they got in contact, Kimura Kazuki told her that he had found a job. His emotions were tense because of the comments on this novel. He even claimed that this was the work of his friend. She was quite sure that this was the work of Kimura Kazuki himself. 
"No… it really is my friend's work," Having spoken these words, he became speechless when he noticed that all of them seemed not to trust him.
"This novel shouldn't be the work of senior," Fuyuno continued to flip through the novel, she spoke with certainty, "The writing style is very similar to a novel which I have read, named Record Book of Matsuzawa Hospital."
Kimura Kazuki looked at Fuyuno in shock, he then nodded his head, "Yes, it was written by that person, you can see it just from the writing style?"
"I recently revised the Record Book of Matsuzawa Hospital again," Fuyuno grinned embarrassedly, "I just like the writing style of Gentera, the words under the tip of his or her pen could easily stir up the emotions of others."
Kimura Kazuki did not fully understand what she said, he was unsure what was the feeling of 'words under the tip of his or her pen could stir up the emotions of others.' But he was still happy since Fuyuno considered it to be good. 
After all, this light novel was going to participate in the essay competition, if it was written well… it would be adapted into comic books or animations, as long as these two were done, it would surely gain the acknowledgment from readers. By that time, Yuriko's obsession could naturally be fulfilled.
"In fact, there's usually nothing much to see from the first chapter of light novels," Akino spoke suddenly, her interest was aroused, "However in this novel… the suspicion and strength of the protagonist were tossed out in the air since the first chapter, that's why I am very interested. You can ask your friend to update it as soon as possible, by then, I can help you to publicize it on Twitter. Be informed that I actually have millions of fans…if anyone else requests me to advertise for them, they will have to pay me a lot of money."
"Really? Why do I not know that you have been earning money from advertisements?" Natsui spoke out of nowhere. "Do you still remember how much money you actually owe us?"
Akino snorted lightly and raised her chin, "My Twitter account is different from those marketing accounts, I have never posted any advertisement before, all of my posts are gaming strategies. Otherwise, how could I get so many fans!"
"Wait…senior, you actually knew teacher Gentera?" Akino was still arguing with Natsui, while Fuyuno suddenly came to a realization after having two spoons of rice. Fuyuno, who was always calm and cold, cried out softly, she laid her eyes on Kimura Kazuki with astonishment, "Both of you are friends in real life?"
Usually, after the beginning of a new novel was completed, it would be first handed to the editor. But there was only one chapter now, perhaps the editor would not bother to have a look.
"You're right."
"So, is teacher Gentera a male or female?"
Kimura Kazuki took a curious glance at Furuhashi Fuyuno, he answered honestly, "Female."
"Sure enough… I knew it." Fuyuno could barely hide her smile, she explained with slight awkwardness when she realized that Kimura Kazuki was giving her a weird stare. "I've been thinking of teacher Gentera as a female all along, but my friend kept telling me that only a man could write such meticulous words in this modern society. So we bet on this… now it seems like I have won."
"Fuyuno… since when did you make new friends? Your old friend, Komuro Jun, hasn't him been transferred to another school?"
The Furuhashi sisters stared at Fuyuno inquisitively. Fuyuno had no choice but to answer, "Although I said she was a friend, she is actually a senior from the voice actor sector. Her name is Yukito Hirata, you guys should be able to recall that I had registered for a voice actor school during my junior high summer holiday, right?"
"Oh..."Akino's mind clicked in an instant, "Isn't the Hirata Performer School founded by Hirata Performer Management Company? I heard that they closed down a few months ago."
Fuyuno coughed lightly, gave Akino a stern glare, and did not say another word.


Time travelling from the majestic era after the Recuperation of Reiki, he became Kimura Kazuki, a 16-year-old high school student in Japan, one year before the Reiki Recuperation.

Tentatively, he set out to hone himself to the bone, burning candles at both ends to stockpile resources in preparation for the imminent Recuperation of Reiki. His goal was to be many steps ahead of all humanity when the time comes.

However, it seemed like fate had decided to play a cruel trick on him.

One year later, the Recuperation of Reiki... did not happen as expected.
