So Ordinary I Want to Be Recognized

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

time flies.

Before you know it, Friday is approaching.

As the release date of the novel gradually approached, the tension in Mizutaka's heart became more and more difficult to relieve.

Can his words... move people's hearts?

His story...will it be liked?

Can his work... touch people again?

Such thoughts kept circling in his mind, which gradually made him feel a little uneasy.

Although he comforted himself time and time again, just try his best and don't have too much hope, but...

In the depths of his heart, there was still a hint of anticipation.

Maybe, the result of my creation... everyone will like it?

People may be like this.

When you have nothing, maybe you will smash the pot and don't care about everything.

But when you have the opportunity to make a difference, expecting it...shouldn't be too much of a thought, right?

......

in the afternoon.

After the club activities ended, Mizutaka set off on his own and went to a nearby chain bookstore alone.

This is one of the largest outlets nearby.

After walking into the bookstore, not long after, he found a book printed with [Xia Shizi's latest masterpiece! "One Hundred Pascals of Pure Love" is now on sale! ] posters.

It's just that he didn't see his name and his works on it.

However, this is also normal.

After all, a poster with two books and two authors would be a bit of a bummer.

Following the guidance of the poster, he quickly found the designated point of sale.

His mood also gradually became uneasy.

The situation... how is it?

After hesitating for a long time, he stepped forward as if he had made up his mind.

Finally, on the bookshelf, he saw his light novels neatly printed.

only...

Unlike "One Hundred Papas of Pure Love" that had already been taken away, only a few of his books were missing from the shelves.

This is...since it was released in the morning, one morning plus one afternoon.

...

Actually... I didn't feel very surprised.

However, when this fact was really presented before his eyes, the boy who was full of expectations was still slightly disappointed.

He ran his fingers lightly across the bookshelves, and... pulled one out.

A nursing home is drawn on the cover of the novel.

Just at the gate of this old building, a pair of teenagers and girls are interlocking their fingers, with their backs to the readers.

Mizuno sighed in disappointment.

It seems that... no one is really interested.

With a cover that doesn't catch the sun and a title that doesn't have any gimmicks, it's hard for people to remember it at a glance.

Just imagine, if you are a reader, if you walk to the front of the shelf and see these two light novels, you should also... First try to pick up the one on the right with the beautiful girl protagonist "Innocent One Hundred Pascals" !

And who will... come to see my book?

Thinking of this, the young man stood in front of the bookshelf blankly, and began to flip through his novel page by page.

The plots and illustrations that have already been memorized by heart come into view once again.

The sincere and pure love and nostalgia between the male protagonist Nakamura Hachi and the female protagonist Asakawa Rie is still contained in some clumsy words, and it flows in a smooth and smooth manner.

It's just... so far, it seems that few people stop by this creek.

......

When he got home, Mizutaka, who was sitting at the table, couldn't learn much.

The feeling of having failed expectations...is not a good feeling.

Although he had expected this result, and was a little relieved, but...

It's not sad, it's also fake.
