Anime: I, Nohara Shinnosuke, am a natural born swordsman!

"President Shinomiya, since you want to make more friends, why don't you try to become friends with Kato first?"

"Ugh?!"

Kato Megumi made a surprised sound because she didn't expect Yukino to suddenly mention her, while Shinomiya Kaguya just discovered that there was a person named Kato Megumi.

Kato Megumi wants to increase her presence, and Shinomiya Kaguya wants to make more friends.

For Miss Shinomiya Kaguya, being able to become friends with an extremely ordinary girl like Kato Megumi is also a relatively novel experience.

For Kato Megumi, being able to become friends with Shinomiya Kaguya can immediately increase her sense of presence.

"Just treat it as an experiment, get in touch with each other and see if we can become good friends?"

Kaguya Shinomiya hesitated for a moment, but still nodded in agreement.

Kato Megumi didn't have any objection. She was a very gentle girl who would never refuse, and she could also understand Yukino's thoughts.

If she could become friends with the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family and attract more attention, would her sense of presence change?

"Let's swap lines first!"

Kato Megumi took the initiative to speak and wanted to exchange contact information with Shinomiya Kaguya.

"what is that?"

“The software on my phone…”

Everyone was shocked when they saw the old flip phone that Kaguya Shinomiya took out. Is there actually anyone who would use such an antique?

"Please add me as your friend first. I will help you find a solution to the problem with your phone."

Hayasaka Ai next to her took out her mobile phone and added Kato Megumi as a friend.

I didn’t expect that a young lady like Shinomiya Kaguya doesn’t even have a smartphone. It seems that the Shinomiya family’s management of her is too strict.

"If we're going to buy a phone, why don't we all get together on the weekend and treat it as a club activity."

Suddenly, a new character, Kaguya Shinomiya, appeared. Kasumigaoka Utaha wanted to observe more and collect materials for her light novel, and immediately thought of a new club activity.

Chapter 78 What I want is pure love, pure love, do you understand?

Buying a mobile phone? Shinomiya Kaguya was not very interested, because she had never been exposed to these things since she was a child. Although she was a young and beautiful girl, she knew nothing about electronic products, just like an old man from the last era.

This also indirectly shows that Shinomiya Kaguya usually does not have any entertainment activities, and apart from traditional etiquette such as archery and tea ceremony, she has no particular interest in anything.

As for club activities, would Nohara Shinnosuke participate? If so, this might be a good opportunity.

Hayasaka Ai next to her thought for a moment, then looked at Shinomiya Kaguya and nodded.

"Miss, the weekend classes can be adjusted. We have plenty of time to buy you a new smartphone. This will be your first step in gaining friendship."

"In that case, I'll trouble you all."

Shinomiya Kaguya bowed slightly, behaving very appropriately.

"Then I'll take my leave. Just discuss the weekend with Hayasaka."

After saying this, Kaguya Shinomiya took Hayasaka Ai and left the service club.

"I didn't expect the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family to work so hard. She looks very tired."

Looking at Kaguya Shinomiya leaving, Eriri couldn't help but sigh. Among all the young ladies, Eriri was an absolute outlier.

Her parents dote on her too much, and Eriri has no pressure at all, so she is much more childish and naive than ordinary girls.

"Eriri, aren't you also a young lady? Don't you have this kind of trouble?"

Kasumigaoka's family is also very happy, and he doesn't know much about the affairs of these big families.

"No, my parents love each other very much and treat me very well. They don't ask anything of me. It's just that my mom always likes to tease me."

Seeing Eriri's happy expression, Yukinoshita Yukino felt very sad. It sounded like an enviable family relationship. It would be great if her parents could get along like that.

Yukinoshita Yukino never doubted the love between her parents, but the relationship between her parents has deteriorated due to reality. For the sake of the family, Yukinoshita Yukino's mother became the person she once hated the most.

But it is still much better than Shinomiya Kaguya. At least she has a sister who cares about her.

"Captain Yukinoshita, you're suddenly saying you want to be friends with President Shinomiya. Isn't that a bit too embarrassing?"

Kato Megumi was a little distressed. Although she had no objection to making friends with Shinomiya Kaguya, she couldn't help but feel worried when she thought about the background of the Shinomiya family.

"We're just friends. It doesn't matter if we can't be friends. I really want to know if Kato-san's presence will change after she becomes friends with President Shinomiya. If that doesn't change Kato-san's presence, then this commission will be too difficult."

"Of course I know, but how am I supposed to get along with a young lady like this?"

"Actually, you don't have to worry. Just think about what Shinnosuke will do."

When you don’t know how to get along with these young ladies, just think about what Shinnosuke would do, you won’t go wrong!

Think about what Shinnosuke would do? It’s really admirable that Shinnosuke’s attitude never changes no matter who he faces.

"Oh right! Where's your novel? I want to read it!"

Speaking of Shinnosuke, Eriri suddenly remembered that didn’t Kasumigaoka Utaha write a light novel based on the relationship between her and Shinnosuke?

She wants to see the sweet romance between herself and Shinnosuke!

"I really can't do anything with you. Let me show you."

Kasumigaoka Utaha gave the manuscript she had compiled to Eriri. She had already submitted this light novel to the editor of the Fuzugawa Bunko.

Because Fuzuigawa Bunko was acquired by a large company, the benefits for newcomers have been adjusted. If you can get a place in this Newcomer Award, you will not only get a high bonus, but also get full-channel publicity, which is very tempting.

However, when handing the manuscript to Eriri, Kasumigaoka Utaha's expression was a little strange.

"By the way, what's the story behind Kasumigaoka-senpai's light novel?"

Yukinoshita Yukino is also very interested in this light novel, but the manuscript has already been taken by Eriri, so she can only ask about the plot of Kasumigaoka in person.

"Of course I wrote about the love story between me and Shinnosuke! Hahahaha!"

Eriri answered the question for Kasumigaoka Utaha, and her words immediately caught the attention of Yukinoshita Yukino and Kato Megumi.

"what?"

"in love?"

The two of them came over at the same time and looked at the manuscript that Eriri was holding.

"Don't fight over it! Let's just watch it together!"

Eriri hadn't realized yet that these two girls were her enemies, nor did she realize that her words had ignited the flames of war.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes lit up beside her. "Fight! Fight! I want to see a river of blood!"

However, to Kasumigaoka Utaha's disappointment, the three beautiful girls did not quarrel, but sat together to read the manuscript that Eriri was holding, and were attracted by the story.

The more Eriri read, the more she felt something was wrong. There was indeed a beautiful mixed-race girl with blonde twin tails in the novel, but why did she always feel like a loser?

"Kasumigaoka! You damn fat woman! What's wrong with this woman named Sayuka?!"

"Black stockings, great figure, and long straight black hair! Isn't this you!!!"

Eriri finally got angry. Why couldn't she win in the novel? Wasn't the story based on her and Shinnosuke's? Why did a character like this suddenly appear?

"Eri, don't be anxious. Isn't this character named Rika based on you?"

Eriri's frustrated look made Kasumigaoka Utaha feel very comfortable.

"And isn't this just the beginning of the story? There will be more female characters appearing later."

"For example, the senior who has a low sense of presence, the beautiful neighbor with long black hair and a cold face, etc."

Yukino:?

Kato Megumi:?

"That's not right! What I want is pure love, pure love, do you understand?"

Eriri still couldn't accept why she couldn't win easily in the light novel?

"And you, the male protagonist, are nothing like Shinnosuke!"

Utaha Kasumigaoka doesn’t know Shinnosuke very well, so the male protagonist she created doesn’t have a strong presence. She mainly describes the delicate emotional changes between the two girls.

"Putting all that aside, what do you think of this story?"

"The story is fascinating, but what did you mean by long, straight black hair and liking stern-looking neighbors?"

After reading the manuscript, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't care much about it, because the male protagonist described by Kasumigaoka Utaha had nothing to do with Shinnosuke at all.

It's just that the setting is somewhat similar to Shinnosuke, and it's completely unlike the real Shinnosuke.

"As long as the story is engaging, that's fine. After all, light novels are there to serve the readers, right?"

"As an apology, if there's a dinner party at the club this weekend, how about I treat you?"

Chapter 79: Ying Lili was angry and got angry

Eriri got angry for a moment.

Yukino's words also made her realize that this was just a novel, not reality.

From a creator's perspective, creating a lot of conflicts can indeed attract more readers.

But Eriri still wanted to see pure love, and couldn't help but complain.

"But if that's the case, wouldn't it just be a stock market speculation? Not having a clear female lead, constantly adding new female characters, and dropping hints to give out bonuses—that's the creator's persistence! What's the difference between a work like this and toilet paper?"

Utaha Kasumigaoka wasn't angry at all when Eriri described her novel as toilet paper.

"But aren't light novels known as toilet paper?"

In Japan's literary circles, light novel authors are indeed looked down upon by traditional literary authors, and their social status is far lower than theirs.

But there is no way around it, better light novels can indeed make a lot of money, and the entry threshold is relatively low.

"I want to make money, and I want more people to read my work. Only after I become famous can I write whatever I want, right?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's words left Eriri silent.

"If this novel is successfully published, I'd like to ask Eriri to be my illustrator."

As we all know, as long as the illustrations are good enough, even if the plot is not perfect, it will be popular among otakus.
