The depressing writer of the anime series, Xue No cried and begged for a break

"Drip drip drip..."

Six o'clock in the afternoon finally arrived.

Yuuna Fujii opened her eyes, took a deep breath, and adjusted her black-framed glasses.

"let's start!"

She turned on the computer and went to the official website of Dian○Bunku!

Not only Fujii Yuuna, I'm afraid the entire Dian○ Library and even other light novel libraries are eyeing this newly updated list:

——Electric shock newcomer list!

In the next week!

The official will update the Dengeki Bunko Newcomer Award list in real time based on the voting receipts received!

Even some excellent works that have not won awards before will appear on it, and there are also records of works that have not won awards being published before.

Fujii Yuna refreshed her page and saw that it was true!

First place in the new talent list:

The "Isekai Fairy Ring" series, written by Yamada Fairy.

Number of votes: 1251.

In the past, the top authors would fight to the death for the top spot, and the atmosphere would be full of tension.

But this year is different.

Authors like Yamada Yoji are still rare.

Although he is not very old, his novel sales have reached 220 million copies in just one year since his debut in Jixiang Library.

It’s even going to be animated soon!

It is definitely a real show with its own traffic.

However, the Kagurazaka Group would definitely not be able to sign such an author.

She wasn't too jealous either.

Having been able to sign with Teacher Ikaros, she no longer asked for more.

Fujii Yuuna continued to read on——

Second place in the new talent list:

"Reincarnation Demon Sword", author Old Testament.

Number of votes: 943.

This is the gold medal work of this session.

The author is from the editorial team next door, and seems to be a college student at Tokyo Arts University. After the gold award was announced, it seemed to have become popular on the school forum. I didn’t expect the response to be so good.

Third place in the new talent list:

"Your Lie in April", by Burning Ikaros.

Number of votes: 789.

Seeing that the third place was "Four Lies", Fujii Yuna breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little sense of crisis.

Actually, this is a pretty good result.

Before, I didn’t know if it was because Editor-in-Chief Kagurazaka signed Senjumura Masayuki and promoted him to Editor-in-Chief, which used up all the luck of their group.

After the Senjumura expedition, their Kagurazaka group never made it into the top three again.

So "Four Lies" is a great work!

She also believes in Gao Chuanshuo's level!

But I still can't help but worry.

but!

The ranking on the first day does not represent the final ranking, there are still six consecutive days of competition!

But achieving this result without any publicity shows that the readers’ feedback is very good and there is still a chance.

She quickly called the editor-in-chief of Kagurazaka:

"Editor-in-chief Kagurazaka, we are currently in third place, 450 votes away from the first place of Mr. Yamada Fairy. I want to apply for a recommendation for Mr. Ikaros."

The person on the other end of the phone naturally knew what happened!

She also didn't want the gold medal painter she discovered personally to be lured away by the works of other groups.

Moreover.

She really thinks the book "Four Lies" has great potential!

The market value may not necessarily be worse than "The Fairy Ring"!

"Well, third place is not bad, and it's only 450 votes away. You can contact a few book reviewers who I often work with. Don't worry about the company. I will get the highest recommendation I can for Mr. Ikaros."

"We are going to start the Northern Expedition!"

"..."

Chapter 20: No, why did the number of votes for "Four Lies" increase so much?

And the outside world at this time.

The atmosphere of the rookie season has spread across the Internet with the launch of the Electric Shock Newcomer List.

X, ig, YouTube, and well-known light novel forums!

Many light novel reviewers have come out to recommend their favorite works, or to make some money by publishing some pre-written drafts to take advantage of the popularity of the Newcomer Award to get a piece of the pie!

The former are more numerous, while the latter are less numerous!

Because in neon!

The light novel culture is deeply rooted in young people, and their aesthetic standards are relatively low. They are not fools who will allow themselves to be fooled by book reviewers.

In previous years, the book reviews for the Dengeki Bunko Newcomer Award were full of diverse opinions!

result!

What is unexpected is that this year, the recommended track chosen by the vast majority of book reviewers was unanimously the third place on the Newcomer List!

That is "Your Lie in April".

Terrible!

It turns out that these book reviews were not found by Fujii Yuuna to promote the books with a purpose, but they did it spontaneously!

This rhythm!

This aroused the interest of many passers-by in "Your Lie in April", and suddenly there were more discussions online about "Four Lies" and the author Burning Icarus!

Especially the well-known book reviewer, Black Cat, who was one of the judges invited to participate in the Newcomer Award this year, in the book review video he posted on YouTube.

Very lively.

Black Cat is different from other book reviewers, who can only get a glimpse of the public content of daily magazines.

But black cats are different.

For the articles that entered the final review, she had basically read the entire volume!

The content of her book reviews is naturally much richer than that of other book reviewers, and is more real, down-to-earth and well-founded.

Unlike other book reviewers who just do it to attract attention and talk big!

on the screen.

The girl in the black Gothic skirt had a fair face and spoke in a calm tone.

"First of all, let me tell you."

“As one of the final judges of Dengeki Bunko, I didn’t have any expectations before reading Four Lies!”

"I was even worried that the recommendation was too beautiful and that Mr. Ikaros's writing skills were not good enough and would ruin it."

"But after watching the second match, the one where Kousei played the ensemble with Kaoru, I must sincerely apologize to Mr. Ikaros. I shouldn't have made a rash judgment based on the previous works!"

"This is indeed a beautiful story of redemption and growth..."

"Anyway, since the single volume is still on sale, I don't want to reveal too much. I just hope that friends who bought the magazine will take the time to fill in the name of "Four Lies" on the voting receipt, so that Dengeki Bunko can quickly publish the single volume of "Four Lies". I really want to read it, and I can guarantee that it will not disappoint you!"

Below, the comments are also very lively, some are praising the black cat's appearance, and some are making fun of the money.

But there are also serious comments:

"Your Lie in April, this book title is quite interesting. Since Kuroneko-chan recommends it so much, if I can really accept the beginning, I will definitely vote for Your Lie in April!"

"Don't mention it, seven of the ten light novel reviewers I follow have recommended Your Lie in April. Now I have to check out the daily magazine!"

"I bought a magazine today and read the beginning of "Four Lies". I feel that it is not as exaggerated as Kuroneko-chan's story. I feel that it is not as good as "Fairy Rings" by Mr. Yamada Fairy, who was recommended by Pingzi. Mr. Pingzi said that "Fairy Rings" has never had such a wonderful beginning. So I will vote for "Fairy Rings" with Mr. Pingzi!"

"Bottle? LSP laser bottle? There has never been such a wonderful start? Oh no, you really followed the right one. Then I choose to follow Kuroneko-chan's "Four Lies"!"

"Anyway, I think "Four Lies" is pretty good. I'll vote for it. When the book comes out, I'll definitely support it again!"

"Kuroneko-chan recommended it, it's a must-see!"

"I took a look and it felt pretty average..."

"As expected, taste is everything. Anyway, I found the beginning of "Four Lies" quite interesting, especially after the heroine appeared. After Kuroneko-chan said this today, I am even more interested in the rest of the story!"

"..."

After the results came out!

Fujii Yuuna sent a message to Takagawa Saku:

"Teacher Ikaros, congratulations to "Four Lies" for reaching third place on the Dengeki Newcomer Ranking!"

Gao Chuanshuo is busy setting up his stall.

“Is ‘Four Lies’ the third place?”

Gao Chuanshuo is a little different.

But he still took the time to ask seriously:

"As a grand prize-winning work, third place should be fine, but isn't that too low?"

Fujii Yuna was somewhat stunned:

"Teacher Ikaros, as an author, don't you pay attention to the newcomer list?"

Takagawa Saku thought of Hikigaya and others.

"It's okay, Ms. Fujii. My classmates are paying attention."

Fujii Yuna was choked and didn't know how to answer.

She had no choice but to return to Gao Chuanshuo's question just now:

"Teacher Yamada Fairy and Teacher Shengyue have been running the ranking list before the daily publication. Being ranked third is a great result. However, today is only the first day. In the next six days, we will help you keep your ranking."

"Thank you, Ms. Fujii."

Fujii Yuna is so devoted to "Four Lies" that his gratitude comes from the heart.

Fujii Yuna: "..."

She really didn't know how to chat with Gao Chuan.

Compared to her nervousness and excitement when she just learned the result, Gao Chuan was too calm, making her seem shocked.

Under the greatness!

She had no choice but to make an excuse, say goodbye and hang up the phone.

After saying goodbye!

Fujii Yuuna continued to stare at the real-time page of the official Dengeki Bunko's new talent list.

The few book reviewers that Editor-in-Chief Kagurazaka asked her to find haven't made any progress yet!
