Chereads / The Sims System in Multiverse / Chapter 123 - Machida Sonoko

Chapter 123 - Machida Sonoko

"For the sake of this lady, you changed your plans?" Elf's smile became even brighter. "So, you really value this lady a lot after all."

Utaha secretly felt annoyed. Initially, what Homura said wasn't a big deal, but why did she feel so unpleasant after hearing what Elf said?

"Let's just wait until she finished," Homura said.

Utaha and Elf became a little nervous. Will Muramasa really be attracted?

Muramasa saw the end, and her expression changed slightly, which made Homura feel more expectant.

"Interesting," Muramasa breathed a sigh of relief. "Although it's not super interesting yet, it's still interesting in a normal way. It's more interesting than all the works I've read before."

The scene was a bit strange. What on earth was 'interesting in a normal way'?

Homura scratched his head. "It's really a subtle answer."

Elf and Utaha nodded in agreement. Indeed, the answer was quite subtle.

However, it seems that this can only make Muramasa pay more attention to them in the future. It may still be a little short for her to join them.

It looks like they need to come up with a strategy. But first, they should introduce themselves.

"Good to know that you find it interesting. Let me introduce myself. I am Minamiya Homura. I have multiple identities, but you can just think of me as a mangaka."

After he finished speaking, Muramasa nodded at him, and Utaha and Elf also understood what he meant.

"But today was quite a coincidence!" Elf smiled confidently and then introduced herself openly. "I am Yamada Elf, and I believe you must have heard of me before?"

Muramasa slowly turned her head to look at Elf, and her dazed eyes gradually regained their brilliance. Without any hesitation, she said, "I don't know."

Elf seemed to be taken aback by her response and stepped back half a step, gritting her teeth and staring at her speechlessly.

"I am a popular author whose works have been turned into anime!"

Muramasa still maintained her indifferent expression, ignoring her words.

Utaha saw Elf's fate and decided not to say much. "I am Kasumigaoka Utaha, and my pen name is Kasumi Utako."

"By the way, the novels and scripts you have read were written by me and Utaha-senpai," Homura reminded her.

Only then did Muramasa look at Utaha seriously. "Hello, I am Senju Muramasa. My real name... is hard to say, please forgive me for concealing it."

"Well, I can understand," Utaha smiled generously.

"Damn it!" Elf secretly gnashed her teeth. How could they ignore her like this?!

However, she gave up on the idea of continuing to argue with her, as she had set her own rule that as long as the sales of someone's work exceeded one million, they could say anything they like. Muramasa's sales were several times higher than hers, so the helpless Elf could only accept it begrudgingly.

"Well, if it's hard to say, let's not talk about it. Our Elf here has also been hiding it," said Homura with a smile.

"Hmph!" Elf crossed her arms and turned her head, "My real name is crucial, and I will only tell certain people at the most critical moment."

"Since you think our work is still interesting enough, why not join our circle?" Homura tentatively asked, "I can guarantee that our circle's future works will be absolutely interesting."

Muramasa was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, "I think my own novel is more interesting."

As expected, still hopeless...

"Well... what about something even more interesting? Join us in making more interesting works, witness their birth with your own eyes. How about it?"

Muramasa finally got out of her dazed state and became interested, "Even more interesting? Will it be more interesting than my novel?"

Homura's eyes narrowed with a sharp glint. There's a chance!

"I guarantee it! If you're interested, I can make a project plan tonight and you can see it tomorrow." Homura promised.

"Well, I also promise that if it's really more interesting than my novel... I'll consider joining," Muramasa replied.

Only consider?

"What if this project is incredibly interesting and inspires all your passion?"

Muramasa was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then I'll join! There's nothing more important than reading interesting works!"

"Great!" Homura exclaimed, "It's a deal! Tomorrow at noon, at that park!"

He pointed to a nearby park, and with the time and place set, he had decided to take a day off tomorrow. He would refine the plan in the morning, meet Muramasa at noon, and go to Otonokizaka in the afternoon after school.

"Mm, it's a deal."

Muramasa was filled with anticipation, while Homura was full of fighting spirit!

'I don't believe the 'Fate' series won't move you!' Homura thought in his mind.

"Shi-chan~!" Suddenly, a short-haired woman came out of the publisher building and called out to Utaha, "What are you guys doing? Why haven't you come in yet? I've been waiting for so long!"

Homura: "..."

Elf: "..."

Utaha: "..."

We forgot!

"Machida-san..." Utaha's eyes twitched, "Can you stop calling me Shi-chan?"

"Who made you come so late..." Machida Sonoko, Utaha's editor, muttered quietly.

"Speaking of which, is there something special about Senju Muramasa-sensei's visit today?" Machida asked Muramasa with a curious look.

Muramasa nodded and said, "I came to find Editor Kagurazaka."

"Oh, then hurry in! Kagurazaka-san is waiting for you!" Machida urged.

"Okay." She looked at Homura, "See you tomorrow. I hope your plan will be really interesting."

Homura gave a thumbs up and smiled, "Please look forward to it. See you tomorrow."

After Muramasa's figure disappeared completely, Machida came over and went straight to him.

"Nee~, so this is the legendary Minamiya-sensei!" She twirled around him, exclaiming from time to time.

"And... did Minamiya-sensei set his sights on Senju Muramasa-sensei too?" She smiled and said, "How many more people does your circle need to recruit?"

Homura didn't hold back at all, "The more the better, of course."

"By the way... are you ignoring this young lady, Editor-san?" Elf's face was full of displeasure; she got ignored again like before! This editor was really something!

"Ah, so Yamada Elf-sensei is here too!" Without waiting for Elf to flare up, Machida immediately said, "Let's go in! How long are we going to drag out this exclusive interview for?"

Elf: "..."

She thought to herself, 'Perhaps... I shouldn't have gone out today...'

Once everyone arrived at a conference room, Machida invited everyone to take a seat.

Homura asked, "Speaking of which, although I am responsible for the interview, what is the content?"

"Well... it's about recent trends and preparations for new works, things like that."

"Alright." He took the laptop prepared by Machida for him and opened a blank document.

"Then... let the interview begin. Please take care of me, Kasumi Utako-sensei!"
