You have acquired the skill 'Fictional Narrative'!

Chapter 276 The familiar figure is no longer there.

When Shiro Shiro saw that his writer career had finally been upgraded, he was overjoyed!

I'm thinking that my writing career has finally been upgraded again!

Now that I have these attribute points, I have three attribute points.

We can try to improve our physical condition and mental strength again.

I wonder what changes will occur after this upgrade.

However, I am still in school.

It seems I can only discuss this after I get home tonight.

Compared to those.

Bai Feng was curious about the effects of the 'fictional narrative' skill, so he clicked to open the skill description.

[Fictional Narrative: The plot of your novel will, to a certain extent, make readers believe that it is real while reading this book!]

When Shiro Shiro saw this skill, he was stunned for a moment.

Then I was pleasantly surprised.

That's a god-level skill!

It's important to know that there are many unofficial historical accounts, which are so realistic that they have been taken as fact by later generations.

Even if others trace the truth back to the source, some people will still believe that it is the real history.

And the effect of my skill is similar to this.

There's no need for others to trace the truth; they'll instinctively believe that the plot of this novel is true.

If Shiro Shiro were to write a "Death Note" now, based on the skill effects, some people might actually believe that a Death Note truly exists in this world.

If someone were to write a horror novel, it might even make readers believe that ghosts and monsters might actually exist in this world.

This is indeed a bit outrageous.

However, for Bai Feng's upcoming novel, this is indeed a significant improvement.

This will allow readers to better understand the protagonist's situation in the novel.

Shiro Kaede couldn't help but feel a surge of joy at this.

at this time.

The cell phone suddenly rang.

He had originally planned to quietly browse his writer's career during the break between classes, but suddenly received a call from Igarashi Chinatsu, an editor at Futaba Publishing House.

[Kamishiro Hakufu: Miss Igarashi? Is something the matter?]

[Chinatsu Igarashi: It's not really a big deal, I just wanted to ask if your pen name has been decided as 'Taiichi' yet?]

[Kamishiro Shirofumi: Okay, that's settled then.]

[Chinatsu Igarashi: Okay. Then I'll have the printing team start printing according to this set. Oh, and there's something else I wanted to tell you. Printing and binding are actually quite fast these days. As long as it's confirmed here, they can probably print it out on the same day. Also, since I've taken care of everything else for your book, I estimate that once it's printed, it will be available in bookstores within ten days.]

[Kamishiro Shirofumi: Okay, thank you. But I'd like to ask, how many copies of this book have been published and printed so far?]

[Chinatsu Igarashi: 5000 copies, I guess. The editorial team really thinks highly of your book, so they gave you the highest print run for the first edition. No other book in the same period has had a larger first edition print run than yours, not even the previous book by 'Seiji Shindo'.]

[Kamishiro Shirofumi: Okay, thank you.]

[Chinatsu Igarashi: I remember you're still in school, right? I won't bother you now. If you have any questions, you can call me directly or contact me via LINE. We can meet up in person to discuss it.]

[Kamishiro Shirokaze: Okay, I'll definitely ask you if I encounter anything I don't understand. Bye-bye.]

Shiro Kaede hung up the phone.

Chitanda Mirai, who was reading a book nearby, asked curiously:

"Kamishiro-kun, who just called?"

Kamidai Bai Feng explained:

"It's from the publishing house."

Mizuno Maki turned to look at Bai Feng, and asked with some concern:

"Has something happened?"

Shiro Shiro shook his head and said:

"No, they just confirmed the pen name and the number of copies to be sold."

Maki Mizuno blinked:

"What's your pen name, Kamishiro-kun?"

Chitanda Mirai noticed that Kamishiro-kun didn't seem too keen on discussing the book, so she chimed in:

"I remember that there were only a few new books in each issue."

"How about we guess which one of them belongs to Kamishiro-kun?"

Maki Mizuno thought for a moment and nodded:

"Okay."

Kamdai Bai Feng smiled and said:

"You can have this."

"Then whoever in the Literature Department guesses correctly, I'll make her a separate dessert."

Junko Urahara immediately became excited when she heard there was food:

"Junko, you want to guess too!"

Chitanda Mirai also became slightly interested:

"Having prizes definitely makes it much more interesting."

"Then I'll be a little more serious."

Maki Mizuno is growing to love the dishes and desserts made by Shirakaze more and more.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that she's lost interest in the other dishes and desserts made by other restaurants, aside from what he makes.

Hearing him say that there would be specially customized desserts, I was really looking forward to it.

However, Mizuno Maki had some doubts:

"What if everyone guesses the same thing?"

Kamdai Bai Feng smiled and said:

"Then let's make a custom dessert for each person."

Chitanda Mirai said happily:

"This is good!"

"This avoids a situation where everyone guesses correctly, resulting in only one person winning the prize."

"But speaking of which, I remember you were supposed to give an interview after the midterm exams, Kamishiro-kun?"

Jindai Bai Feng nodded and said:

"Yes, Ms. Aibe has contacted me during this time as well."

When Mizuno Maki heard about the midterm exams, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous and worried.

But she wasn't worried about herself.

Because she had been studying with Chitanda Mirai and Watanabe-senpai during this period.

Therefore, it is highly unlikely that the grades will decline, and they may even be better than before.

Maki Mizuno is worried about Kamishiro-kun.

Since he started writing novels, he has basically stopped studying seriously in his spare time.

At most, they only study diligently during class.

He probably won't get good grades in the midterm exams.

Not to mention getting into the top ten in the school year.

If he can't get into the top ten in the school, he'll definitely be expelled by President Hojo.

However, Mizuno Maki knew that he still had a favor to do with Hojo-senpai, and he figured he could use that favor to avoid being expelled.

Aside from that, what Mizuno Maki was really worried about was that Shiro Shiro had said he wanted to study hard and get into the University of Tokyo.

If you're going to get into the University of Tokyo, why not study hard?

Does this mean he has given up on Tokyo University?

Maki Mizuno knew that if Kamishiro-kun didn't get into the University of Tokyo, it meant that she and Kamishiro-kun would be separated after high school.

She really didn't want this to happen; she wanted to go to Tokyo University with Kamishiro-kun.

However, the timing doesn't seem quite right; he doesn't seem to want to study at this time.

Mizuno Maki thought she would bring it up with Kamishiro-kun after his midterm results came out. She figured that if Kamishiro-kun saw that his grades were bad, he would probably agree to study with her.

Jingle bell bell~

The school bell rang.

As usual, Matsueda Asami carried in a small stool.

After the students stood up and saluted, she slowly began to speak:
