Ryuji slightly blamed himself.
With his dynamic vision, he saw tears dripping from the corners of Sagiri's eyes as she slammed the door.
"I'm really bad." Ryuji had a self-deprecating smile on his lips.
As an older brother, no matter what a younger sister's fault, as long as she sheds tears, it's his fault!
Ryuji put down the bowl and chopsticks, moved the low table to the door of Sagiri's room, knocked on the door, and said, "Sagiri, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I shouldn't have forced you out."
There was no movement in the room, Sagiri must still be angry.
Ryuji said apologetically "I left your lunch at the door for you, remember to eat it while it's still hot."
Finally, he added, "If Sagiri doesn't want to leave the room, that's fine, I'll definitely take care of you."
"Because we are big brother and little sister."
If Sagiri really wanted to stay in the room all the time in the future, that's fine, just let her older brother take care of her!
After finishing the last sentence, Ryuji descended silently.
After he left, Sagiri opened the door, looking at the sumptuous lunch on the low table in silence, wondering what Ryuji was thinking.
Finally, she opened the door, sat down on the floor with a pillow, and ate her lunch.
Even though she couldn't get out of the room yet, she tried to respond to her big brother's expectations.
Ryuji went to the living room, now he had no appetite at all, thinking about whether Sagiri would ever forgive him.
He returned to his room on the first floor and took out a light novel titled [Love Metronome].
Because of the rain, the book was still a little crumpled, Ryuji thought for a moment, then used recovery Magecraft to return the book to its original form.
He spent the next afternoon reading light novels. The writing style of this novel is very extraordinary, much better than the light novels on the internet.
The novel follows the theme of school love, which is Ryuji's type.
"Humph." Ryuji closed the book and exhaled.
It had been a long time since he had spent an afternoon reading a light novel, it felt so good living his everyday life!
Ryuji thought about it, if he was in Chaldea right now, what he would be facing would probably be persecution from Kiyohime, Scathach's training, or Mash's tender care. Ahem...
Seems like the latter is pretty good...
Ryuji returned his thoughts to reality, and made a rough evaluation of the novel.
This light novel is carefully written, and the psychological description of the protagonist and heroine, it is a masterpiece.
But a good work is not necessarily a hit. In the world of light novels, the market share is huge.
Although Ryuji hasn't touched light novels for a year, he also knows that the light novels on the market are mainly about fights and harems, for school love is relatively small.
Ryuji thought for a while, took out his cell phone and edited the email for the girl named Kasumigaoka Utaha.
...
In an apartment in downtown Chiba City, Kasumigaoka Utaha was facing the computer, which was the second volume of [Love Metronome] that she had just written.
Today, she received a notification from the editor that [Love Metronome] might be dropped, making all her inspiration disappear, and she was unable to start the second volume.
"Ding!"
The sound of the email made Utaha, who was hugging her knees, look up. She doesn't have many friends at school, and she probably doesn't have an e-mail, unless...
Utaha thought of the narcissistic youth of the day, Hyakki Ryuji.
She nervously picked up her phone and looked at the email Ryuji had sent her.
"Hello, Kasumigaoka Utaha, I'm Hyakki Ryuuji."
"I have finished reading the [Love Metronome] volume, and I must say that it is a very good novel."
Utaha's eyes lit up, and everyone would love to be recognized for her hard work. She kept looking down.
"The author's writing style is very good, and the description of the protagonist is also very refined. The green of love seems to remind people of their first love."
That's what he said, but actually Ryuji didn't have the so-called first love.
"But right now the light novel market is dominated by harem battles, so I don't think sales of this novel should be good."
This sentence stabbed Utaha in the heart. Whether a light novel is good or bad depends on its sales.
"Ding!"
Another email came, "Could you be the author of [Love Metronome], Kasumi Utako Sensei?"
Utaha was shocked, how did he know?
After a moment's hesitation, Utaha replied: "Yes. How do you know? "
Ryuji: "That's just a guess."
Ryuji was indeed guessing. Thinking of the situation when he saw Utaha, let him read her novel, and there was a similar name, he could easily think of it.
But even using her own name as an alias, how could anyone be so naive. Ryuji secretly laughed.
"What do you think I should do?" Utaha didn't know why she was asking Ryuji this question, but she just wished he could give her an answer.
Ryuji thought for a while and replied: "From the market's point of view, maybe a book like that should be cut in half. But from a reader perspective, I really look forward to seeing the second volume of [Love Metronome]."
"I hope Utako Sensei can continue to create!"
