How to raise a random guy's wife

[It's been a long time since Mr. Kurosaka was the club president, right?]

[That was several years ago]

[Almost ten years?]

[Eight years, I guess]

[It's been a long time anyway]

This website has been advertising a lot lately.

[But there are too few games]

"Well, as you can see, this is a galgame website." Akane Akasaka browsed the webpage. "But it just went online, so there are only a few games, and they are mostly made by RER."

The number of entries is so large that it can't even fill the trending list.

However, White Album topped all the charts.

"Everyone knows about galgames, and everyone knows the state of galgames. It's a bunch of lazy bums, clinging to the old stuff and refusing to let go. What era are we living in? Still playing those overpriced, low-quality games? Even if you don't have the ability, at least show some enthusiasm. It's all a waste of time anyway, why not just jump into a river and at least provide some entertainment..."

[Don't do this, Akasaka-sensei]

[Don't Do That, Akasaka]

[It can't be that bad, it can't be that bad]

[Let me say a few more curses]

Stop criticizing them, criticize me instead.

[Speak louder]

That's enough.

[Let's talk about ads]

Looking at the rapidly refreshing real-time comments, Mayu Sagara had a complicated expression. "Well... everyone is helping to stop it, so there's no need to worry too much."

If Akane Kousaka were allowed to continue speaking, too many people would get hurt.

"What's there to be afraid of? I'd say these things to your face too. I said the same thing when I was working with Malz back then. Is telling the truth considered insulting? Those guys aren't incompetent, they're just lazy and stupid... Never mind." Akane Kousaka logged into her account. "Hmm, it's linked to my manga website account, which makes things much easier."

I casually clicked on "White Album," and the webpage directly loaded the game screen.

"That's the feeling. You can just click and play." Akane Kousaka clicked skip, and the conversation ended quickly. "Those who want to play can try it themselves. What I want to show you is this—the payment interface."

Is it really that direct?

[Straight to the point]

[Advertising genius]

"That's exactly the feeling," Akane Akasaka said, drawing a circle with her mouse. "After reading the first chapter, if you're interested, you can buy the second chapter. If you're not interested, you can look at other ones. If you're not satisfied, you can also leave a comment and add tags. Unlike the previous buy-out system, you can cut your losses in time."

That's not bad.

[Like a comic book]

[This seems kind of interesting]

[But there are too few games]

"Of course, more games will be added later. Some older RER games can be remastered and added. We should also collaborate with some companies later... I'll ask them later to see which companies are involved." Akane Kousaka opened a new interface. "Today, I'll mainly introduce this—the galgame editor."

Chapter 659 Effortless Mastery

"You've probably all heard of RPG Maker. This is something similar, but it's an online version and can only be used to create visual novels." Akane Akasaka operated the webpage. "Once you create a creator account, you can officially start creating—today's live stream will be about making a game."

[Ohh ...

[See Akane Akasaka making a game with your own eyes!]

[Made a fortune!]

[I'm starting to get interested]

[This looks so difficult]

Akane Kousaka explained the website's features: "This is the character creation interface, similar to that virtual idol editor. Even without drawing skills, you can design the character you want using the template. Let me see... This template will do. The hair will be a little longer, the hair color is up to you, and if the personality is timid, the corners of the eyes will droop slightly, and the shoulders will be similar. Add a smile and troubled eyebrows, and design a few other expressions—the heroine is done."

[Looks so simple]

I feel like I could do it too.

[That's an illusion! The important thing is the design concept behind the characters.]

I've learned a lot!

"After the character design is done, it's time for the scene. The asset library is here, just use whatever you want." Akane Akasaka explained while demonstrating, "Create a new launch screen, put the game name on it, any artistic font will do, add character illustrations, scene and artistic font, pick a background music from the assets—done."

Clicking "Preview" brings up a familiar startup screen to the screen, accompanied by upbeat music.

[It seems really simple!]

[I have that feeling]

I'm really good at this!

"Next is the dialogue." Akane Kousaka continued, "Click here to add character dialogue, hmm... let me think, what kind of story should I write? How about this?"

Akane Akasaka chose a street scene image as a background and then added text.

8:32 PM

[Huff...huff...]

I must be crazy.

Why do this kind of thing?

【but......】

If the dream I just had was real...

【Then I must go there!】

"That completes this part of the story." Akane Kousaka's operation became more and more proficient. "Next, we'll officially begin the story, starting with a new scene."

I simply chose a blank background and put the female protagonist's portrait on it.

Then add a dialogue.

It begins with the protagonist muttering to himself in confusion, followed by his astonishment upon seeing the female lead.

During the interaction, the protagonist introduced the female protagonist.

The perfect young lady of the academy, the epitome of cuteness, a high-and-mighty beauty.

The two were childhood sweethearts, and when the male protagonist was young, he gave one of a pair of jade pendants to the female protagonist.

The two later separated due to differences in their family backgrounds, but a few years later, by a twist of fate, they ended up attending the same high school.

An ordinary male protagonist, an unattainable female protagonist, a childhood sweetheart past, and an unreachable present.

There is another important question.

Why would the two meet in a white space?

The protagonist is confused, but the female protagonist seems to have suddenly remembered something.

Ah, I think I'm dead.

"That completes the second part of the story." Akane Akasaka let out a sigh of relief. "Let's take a break. It's been a long time since I've made a game, so I'm a bit rusty. Everyone's probably tired of seeing the same thing, so let's talk about something else to relax. We can't just keep doing ads."

[? ? ? ]

[Keep doing it!]

[What an incredible plot twist!]

[I initially thought it would be a classic childhood sweetheart reunion storyline.]

[Why did people suddenly die later?]

[Shocking!]

[Keep advertising!]

[I want to continue watching ads]

[You call this unfamiliarity?!]

Eriri looked at the rapidly refreshing real-time comments and felt that these words expressed her own thoughts, "...As expected of her."

"So impressive..." Bo Island stared blankly at the live stream. "Is this the power of top creators?"

"Advertising can be done like this..." Mayu Sagara exclaimed in amazement, "That's incredible."

Kobayashi Sora had been monitoring the data closely, and as Akane Akasaka's live stream progressed, the website's traffic growth rate suddenly increased.

However, as Akane Akasaka's production progressed, the growth rate gradually returned to its previous state.

Clearly, many people clicked on the website because of Akane Akasaka's live stream, and then became so engrossed in her game development that they forgot about the website altogether.

This is Akane Kousaka's power.

"Alright, alright, I'll keep going. Do you guys really enjoy watching ads that much?" Akane Akasaka complained. "Give me some time to come up with ideas, you know."

That's what she said, but her actions showed absolutely no intention of planning anything.

As the male and female protagonists continue their conversation, the plot gradually becomes clear.

The female protagonist was murdered, and her soul left her body.

When they were young, the male protagonist gave the female protagonist a jade pendant. Because of the power of the jade pendant, the female protagonist's soul found the male protagonist.

Now that things have come to this, the male protagonist can only continue to communicate with the female protagonist. He cannot change the fact that the female protagonist is dead, but he must at least find the murderer who killed her and avenge her.

The female protagonist recalls the little things in her life, using scene changes to tell the story of her situation. The male protagonist also learns about the pain and helplessness that this seemingly perfect young lady faces in her life.

The two seemed to have returned to their childhood, to a time when they talked carefree.

Hearts that had once drifted apart have drawn closer once more.

But death pulled them apart.
