World Aid Guide

"Huh?" Eriri was taken aback by Tomoya's words. "You're here too?"

"That's right! Amusement parks are a common setting in visual novels, but I haven't been to one much. It just so happens that I came to an amusement park with my friends this weekend to gather material."

Today, Tomoya spent the whole day at the amusement park with his online recruiters, gathering material. It wasn't until the afternoon, when he finally finished gathering, that he had time to call Eriri.

"Haha, I was worried before that Eriri wouldn't be able to make the game because you don't have any friends, but now that I see you and your companions have come to gather materials, I feel relieved."

"Who doesn't have friends? I'm with my friends right now!"

Eriri stubbornly insisted that while she had many ordinary friends, the number of people in the entire school who knew about her otaku interests could be counted on one hand.

"Are you underestimating us? The game that Kasumigaoka guy and I make will definitely outsell yours!"

"Then I'll have to look forward to your game."

Eriri arrogantly uttered some harsh words... Just now, Eriri almost pressed her face close to Alice and Erio's eyes to observe them closely.

Now that Eriri was on the phone with Aki Tomoya, she was inevitably a little distracted and didn't notice that the cunning look in Alice's eyes was getting stronger and stronger.

She looked at Chen Lin and then at Eriri.

If it's a visual novel, a countdown will appear in the upper right corner of the screen.

10......9......8........

In the game, the number in the upper right corner does not decrease over time. Instead, the number decreases by 1 every time the player clicks the mouse. At the same time, various mysterious flashes appear, and the smaller the countdown number, the more frequently the flashes appear.

When the countdown reaches 1, two options are usually displayed on the screen.

These two options do not affect what follows; they only affect whether the next CG is a cream puff or a snow cake.

In the game, the countdown is controlled by the player's mouse, while in reality, the countdown is controlled by Alice and Eriol. As the countdown begins, Alice temporarily takes control from Eriol and begins to count down silently in her mind.

5.....4.....3.....2......1！

When Alice counted to 1, two options appeared before her.

"Just look forward to it..."

Alice winked at Chen Lin when Eriri was only halfway through her sentence.

"Oops, my hand slipped."

Alice manually selected the snow cake option when Eriri started speaking.

"I'll definitely win then... Eek!!!"

By the time Eriri realized what was happening, it was too late.

"Ugh, cough cough cough!!!"

"Eri? What's wrong?"

On the other end of the phone, Ren asked with concern.

"Pah! Pah! It's...it's nothing! I just accidentally bumped my toe."

Did she accidentally bump her toe? Lun was also a little confused. The spitting sounds she made afterward didn't sound like she bumped her toe, but rather like she was spitting something out of her mouth.

"Are you OK?"

"I already said it's nothing! That's it!" Eriri, who could barely open her eyes, hung up the phone at lightning speed and subconsciously wiped her face with her hand.

After wiping, I was able to open my eyes, but the smear was almost evenly applied.

Eriri had always been amazed by Chen Lin's male protagonists, who far surpassed those in her own manga, and now she finally experienced it firsthand.

Eriri experienced the treatment of the heroine in her own manga.

After her mind went blank, Eriri quickly ran to the bathroom, but Alice stopped her before she could get up.

"Eri-kun, would you like to wash your face?"

"Of course! How could I not wash my face?! Pfft!!!"

"No way~ We can't waste the consultant's hard work in providing assistance... right, Elio?"

"Eh... eh... uh... um." Like a small animal, Elio nodded cautiously. "We can't waste it."

Alice blinked, cupped Eriri's cheeks in her hands, and gently touched her nose with her thumb.

"Eri-kun, wash your face later, we'll take care of cleaning it up~"

Chapter 122 Why are you so skilled at this?!

"Wait a moment."

Alice and Elo were 'thoughtfully' preparing to 'wipe Eriri's face' when Mashiro, who had been watching Shion draw, came over and stopped them.

"Don't wait any longer, I need to wash my face."

Eriri squeezed out a sound from her throat with her mouth closed... Although Eriri was already quite surprised by Alice's 'slip of the hand', she didn't want to try it a second time.

"Mashiro-kun?"

Alice looked at Mashiro with a puzzled expression, only to see Mashiro standing in front of Eriri, who looked like a snow cake, staring at her face.

"Last time it was me, this time it's your turn to be my model."

"!?"

A model? My turn?

Eriri paused for a moment, then quickly remembered that the first time she went to gather material with Mashiro, Mashiro turned into a snow cake to appease Chen Lin, and she had told her not to wipe it so she could be her model.

Is it my turn this time?

Eriri wanted to argue and find a reason, but she didn't dare to open her mouth for fear of eating the sugar on the rice cracker.

"Goo..."

Eriri clenched her teeth, and a short, mournful cry escaped her throat.

Eriri, just like Mashiro before her, tilted her head back and closed her eyes... Mashiro's drawing speed is quite fast. Since things have already turned out this way, it's better to repay this favor as soon as possible and not let Mashiro have a second chance to make her her model!

Just bear with it and it will pass... Anyway, Mashiro draws pretty fast.

Utaha also walked from Shion's side to Eriri's side, a pleased smile playing on her lips.

Thanks to Eriri's tsundere personality, Utaha usually wins more arguments than she loses, but now Eriri can't refute her, so how could Utaha let such a good opportunity pass by?

"Eri Sawamura, do you want to experience what it's like to be the heroine in your manga? As expected of a perverted erotic doujinshi artist, going this far. I didn't know you had this kind of interest before. It seems she wasn't wrong. Eriri-kun, you are a lesbian."

Eriri gritted her teeth and forced out a sound from her throat.

"Get out of here!"

"Get lost? I'm gathering material here. Unlike comics where I just need to write some nonsensical onomatopoeia, I need to describe things carefully in the game. So... for the sake of the game, Eriri Sawamura, hurry up and tell me your thoughts. Also, what does a snow cake taste like?"

"If you want to know, try it yourself!"

Eriri, in a fit of despair, suddenly stood up and lunged at Utaha.

"!!!"

Utaha retreated repeatedly... To Utaha, Eriri's current state was not much different from having a mop covered in ○.

"Sawamura-kun, you can keep this good stuff for your chaotic self."

Utaha wanted to chase after him, but Mashiro held her back.

Chen Lin almost burst out laughing when he saw Eriri's cheeks trembling with anger. He had always been Eriri's model... and now she's getting what she deserves?

But... why isn't Mashiro drawn?

After moving the drawing board from Shion to Eriri, Mashiro held the pen, frowning, seemingly unwilling to start drawing.

"Mashiro? Why aren't you using a brush?"

Chen Lin forced a smile and asked.

"Not enough."

"Isn't that enough?! My eyes are almost closed and it's still not enough?" Eriri said angrily.

“Not enough.” Mashiro paused. “You wiped some off just now, so it’s not enough.”

Chen Lin touched Elio's light blue hair, then his gaze fell on Mashiro.

"In that case, Mashiro, you'll have to ask Erio for help."

"Okay, please."

"Uh... I... I... I'll try my best!"

Mashiro's serious expression made Erio quickly agree, but... this was the first time Erio had been asked to do something like this, even though she tried hard to recall what Alice had just taught her.

However, under the watchful eyes of Alice and Mashiro, the nervous Erio was flustered and at a loss for what to do.

Mashiro frowned slightly... How long will this go on?

Thinking of this, Mashiro put down his paintbrush.

"I'm here to help."
