Alexander didn't know what the two girls were thinking at the moment, if he knew that Kasumigaoka thought 'Sen Takatsuki' was warm and gentle, Alexander might spit out a mouthful of salt soda.
Alexander shook his head and entered his office. Inside, Ashisu had been waiting for him for a long time. As Alexander opened the door, Ashisu walked over to him.
"Alexander, I'm sorry to trouble you." Ashisu said shyly, but Alexander didn't care. He didn't care about his company's affairs. "Okay, let the two of them come in."
"Well, Utako Kasumi-san also brought her illustrator, I found that she is very talented and ready to sign a contract together.
"Then let's go together." - Alexander nodded.
"Yeah." Ashisu nodded and went over to call for someone. For some reason, she felt that Alexander today was very weird. In the past, Alexander always gave people the warmth of a spring breeze, but today, why does he look so serious?
But Ashisu didn't think much about it. Men, there are always thirty days in a month that they are abnormal.
Alexander: ?????
Soon, three figures entered through the door. Alexander's attention was drawn to the green-haired woman, and he keenly noticed a flash of murderous intent in her eyes the moment she saw him. Though it disappeared in an instant, it was evident to Alexander that he was once again the target of someone's focus.
And just when Alexander and Eto looked at each other, Kasumigaoka clearly recognized Alexander!
Recalling the scene where Alexander once hugged her from left to right, she couldn't help but exclaimed! "Playboy, it's you! Why are you here!" As soon as Kasumigaoka finished speaking, she suddenly remembered what this place was, and she remembered the figure at the Overlord conference back then, and in a flash, Kasumigaoka finally realized it!
"You!!! You are Alexander?!"
"What? He's Alexander!" Eriri also exclaimed, looking at the young man in front of her in shock. She examined him from head to toe, finding him young, handsome, and talented—completely different from the image she had imagined. Before entering, Eriri had mentally prepared herself for Alexander to be a bald, middle-aged man, but seeing him now, she was pleasantly surprised. Her admiration for him transformed from that of a casual fan to a dedicated one in an instant!
"Kasumigaoka, we meet again~" Alexander greeted Kasumigaoka with a smile, then gesturing for them to sit down and rest.
Kasumigaoka took a seat on the sofa but avoided looking at Alexander, instead gazing out the window.
"Kasumigaoka, what's wrong? Why did your expression change when you saw Alexander?" Eriri asked, puzzled, glancing at Kasumigaoka beside her.
"It's just the gap between what I imagined and reality that is big that leaves me shocked," Kasumigaoka replied.
"Oh? Then, what did you think 'Alexander' looked like?" Alexander asked, curious about others' perceptions of him.
Kasumigaoka wasn't one to mince words, revealing her cunning nature in an instant.
"As a writer with over a decade of experience, he should be a middle-aged man in his 30s or 40s, likely sporting tired eyes from years of drawing comics. He must have a very thoughtful appearance, possibly even balding, and could be overweight and unkempt, as is typical of cartoonists."
Alexander: "*\0/*"
"You're being prejudiced! Why do cartoonists have to fit a certain image?" Alexander thought of Ishida Sui, the author of "Tokyo Ghoul; Re", Yusei Matsui, the author of "Assassination Classroom", and "The Prince of Tennis". Araki Hirohiko, the author of "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure". Which of these cartoonists is as unpleasant as Kasumigaoka claims?
Looking at Alexander in front of her, Kasumigaoka was skeptical. "Then tell me, you're only 21 or 22 this year. How have you been drawing manga for over ten years?"
That was Kasumigaoka's doubt; she suspected either deception by the company or that Alexander wasn't genuinely interested in meeting her. Otherwise, why would they send someone so young to deal with her?
Could it be that Alexander had been drawing manga since he was six years old? Was she being foolish?
"Because I started drawing manga when I was six years old," Alexander explained honestly.
Kasumigaoka: "..."
"You're really saying you could create so much at age six? Are you claiming you drew works like Tokyo Ghoul at that age? Do you think we're naive enough to believe that?"
What?!
Hearing that Alexander drew "Tokyo Ghoul" at the age of six, Eto's eyes flashed coldly again. If this Alexander is true, then, thinking that her world is actually drawn by a six-year-old child, she really has an urge to kill at this moment.
Ashisu on the side saw that they didn't believe it so she stood up to prove, "I guarantee it with my life, Alexander is really Alexander, that's right!"
