Chapter 18: Manga Artist and Assistant (Part 2)

  Thanks for 'who was who's' evaluation votes and rewards, as well as Mr. Yún Qí's support!

  Originally, this type of small-scale interview program requires few staff members, just one cameraman and one host are enough, simple and direct, can save a lot of time.

  But Sosuke has plenty of time today, so there's no need to worry about not having enough time to do what he needs to do. He can spend some time here with Mogami Koshien being interviewed.

  Sosuke had already appeared online before, so it's no surprise that he was exposed now.

  From the autograph session of "Fate/Stay Night" to the last live broadcast, many people must have known Sōsuke and understood Sōsuke, a man called "Dai-sensei".

  In fact, Sosuke thinks that he and they have very different views. After all, what he wants to do is not to despise his youth here, how annoying it is to be a conformist, or how to explode, but to create a 'miracle'.

  Now and Makihara Nami are being interviewed together, I guess besides game scenario writer and youth counselor, they will also be labeled as 'manga assistant'.

  Unfortunately, unlike in anime and manga, the cartoonist here is a woman, and it's not even slightly perverted or erotic.

  Of course, Sosuke couldn't imagine himself being knocked down by Mogami Kyouichi either, it must have been terrifying at that time.

  For example, it's like when Cheng Ge was pushed down by the cute little sister with a knife in her hand, that would absolutely be Cheng Ge's death FLAG.

  "Rather than asking about the lower half of the body, let me ask Horizon teacher first! I didn't expect him to be a high school student who looks quite young."

  "Can we stop using last episode's gag already?"

  Lower body, this is also called lower body, it's too gentlemanly.

  Sō's serious rebuttal left the host, who called herself Xiao Hui, bewildered. Her short, wine-red hair bobbed up and down with her movements.

  "Excuse me, is this assistant's surname Xia? The name Ban Shen is quite strange."

  The female host seems to have raised an absurd question.

  "So I'm telling you not to use that joke anymore! My surname is Sazawa and my name is Yū, so call me Sazayū."

  "Satoru, lower body?"

  "What's with this slightly perverted remark? Don't make me out to be a character like Mori Kogoro."

  Yes, Mao Yuanjiu nodded in agreement.

  "That's the name of my comic character, don't use it to bully him."

  "The key point isn't here, is it?!"

  Listening to the conversation between the two, host Xiao Hui received a whisper from the photographer behind her. After hearing it, she widened her eyes and nodded repeatedly, her eyes shining like a child's.

  Finally, the host handed over a spare microphone and loudly said

  "According to the information I gathered earlier, Mr. Sōichirō is the original scriptwriter of the recently popular game 'Fate/stay night', right? I heard that online pre-orders alone exceeded 300,000 copies, and its popularity is too high... So, as a scriptwriter, why would Mr. Sōichirō be with [Horizon] sensei, who is a manga artist? Moreover, working in the same room, becoming her manga assistant... Are you two dating?"

  "There is one thing that must be declared, and that is it's absolutely impossible for me to have a relationship with Cao Yuan."

  "Oh?"

  The third person who joined the conversation was undoubtedly Mao Haruto.

  She let out a soft hum after hearing Sosuke's sharp voice, and with a slightly questioning tone, she caught the attention of Sosuke and others.

  Four cups of tea had been prepared in this living room beforehand, but since the photographer was on one side, one cup of tea was placed outside the camera frame.

  Mao Yuanjiu lifted a cup of tea, and from here, Zuo You saw that the tea leaves were standing upright inside. Would there be good news?

  When she saw Mao Yuanjiu put down his teacup, she continued her own words in a calm tone.

  "You just denied being in a relationship with me, didn't you, Sosuke?"

  "Isn't it obvious?"

  "Very good, but that last sentence is really unacceptable. What's the point of saying I absolutely won't associate with you? Is it to look down on me in front of this camera?"

  Are you a big star from somewhere? Grab this topic.

  So Soshou thought, and then immediately said

  "This isn't looking down on you, it's just a fact, we didn't have any interactions to begin with."

  "That's right, Sosuke doesn't fall in love with others because of personal reasons, like that kind of thing."

  "What is that? Tell me clearly!"

  "It's really perverted, isn't it, making a girl say that in front of a live audience? But since Sosuke brought it up as a deviant, I'd be embarrassed to refuse. This is your last request using your social status."

  "Shut up! Don't say another word! And don't go setting up a death flag on your own!"

  Sato Yu made an effort to stop her, but somehow felt that this honors student girl had been hostile towards him since earlier.

  No, she didn't have a good impression of herself to begin with, but why did she suddenly become so harsh? And still in front of the camera.

  Is it because I said I absolutely wouldn't have a relationship with the honor student miss?

  If we reason along these lines, it's possible that the academic overachiever has developed a strong aversion to the phrase "absolutely impossible", and feels extremely uncomfortable inside.

  Then, based on years of analysis from a gaming perspective, as long as this scene is placed in the game, it can be inferred that Mogami Kyouko is very interested in herself!

  Yes, this bookworm girl may have been confused by herself, and thinking about it is quite a troublesome thing.

  Sōsuke and Daisensei are two different aspects. He likes youth but hates romance, so he doesn't pay much attention to this kind of thing between men and women.

  Wrong, Zuo You is still very interested in the female body, to put it bluntly, it's like "Night Shift Nurses" - no way, that's truly perverted, everyone must not go to Tudou oh.

  No matter what, Sosuke likes girls but hates romance, although it seems contradictory, it will never conflict.

  Liking girls and disliking romance are two different things, this point must be made clear.

  In Satoru's memory, there was a painful experience that couldn't be erased - being confessed to by an arrogant boy, which was basically a huge stain on his life!

  But since things have come this far, Sosuke can't help but say his own opinion.

  She had mentioned before that Zuo Yu disliked this academic overachiever, she was too smart, too excellent, which led to her own failure, but this 'outstanding' point of hers couldn't be removed.

  To be honest, Sosuke is jealous.

  Even now that he has obtained something called 【Gakubasu System】, Sosuke still feels jealous of Miharayama Koji.

  A wealthy family, excellent grades, a beautiful appearance, basically all of God's blessings have descended upon her, except for the relationship with her family, everything else is at the top level.

  For this, Sōsuke compared it with himself and confirmed each other's strengths and weaknesses.
