Crossover Anime: The Heroine is in Trouble? I Take Advantage of the Situation

"Brothers! Today is the Day of Holy War!"

"Three college degrees are a minimum, ten is not too many!"

"Let's use sales figures to slap those old fogies in the face! God's talent can never be tainted by their filthy prejudices!"

"Ohhh!!" The surrounding fans let out a series of enthusiastic shouts.

……

Some of the trolls in the queue wore disdainful sneers: "Ha, a bunch of brainwashed pathetic bastards."

"I'm going to see today what kind of stuff this 'King of Toilet Paper's' transformation work, which has been touted to the skies, really is."

“That’s right, I’m ready to start a thread on 2ch titled ‘After School, a Complete Literary Scam’!” another hater chimed in.

They bought the book to attack Seiji Fujiwara.

……

of course.

Among those queuing were also ordinary passersby.

"Hey, who do you think will win this round?"

"Who knows? But whatever the outcome, it's exciting enough!"

"Yeah, I really hope they start fighting, that would be a good show."

……

At 10:00 a.m. sharp, the bookstore doors opened.

The crowd surged in like a tidal wave.

"After School" was placed in the most prominent position in the bookstore.

The book's cover features the title in bold, powerful characters—"After School"—and below it in smaller print—"Written by Seiji Fujiwara".

The first readers to receive the book, whether they were fans, haters, or casual readers, couldn't wait to start flipping through it.

Then, everyone was stunned.

"Holy crap... this opening is so realistic! It's totally not like a light novel!"

"Is this a lie? This writing style... it's as calm and precise as a scalpel, sharp and incisive. Could this really have been written by that twenty-year-old author?!"

"My God! What a trick! I thought I had figured out the truth halfway through, but... the result was completely different from what I expected! The author is on a whole other level!"

"The ending twist gave me goosebumps and left me drenched in cold sweat! It was incredible!"

……

The most arrogant hater had just finished turning the last page of his book, his face full of resentment.

"How could this be... How could this happen... This is impossible..."

His prepared rebuttal was rendered utterly ineffective in the face of the astonishing quality of the work.

Can't refute.

Forcibly hacking him will only result in his account being attacked.

His companion nudged him: "Hey, weren't you going to start a thread?"

The hater shuddered, staring at his companion as if he were a monster, and said with a twitching smile:

030 "What the hell are you talking about! How am I supposed to criticize you?!"

……

Word of mouth spread like wildfire.

In that popular debate thread on the 2ch literature forum, many haters and casual readers who had read the book switched sides!

"I was wrong, I apologize!"

"Fujiwara-sensei, I'm sorry!"

"I'm so sorry, Fujiwara-sensei, I shouldn't have viewed you with prejudice! You are a true genius!"

"Yes, this book is the strongest classic mystery masterpiece of the last ten years... no! Twenty years! Without a doubt!"

"Those who were cheering for Professor Watanabe before, are you embarrassed now? Is this what you call 'violating the laws of creation'?"

……

……

After the reputation reversed.

The former enemies must naturally be dealt with.

TVS is a television station and a program.

Professor Watanabe was sitting in the lounge, preparing for the upcoming interview.

However, his assistant rushed in in a panic.

"Professor! Something terrible has happened! Your Twitter account has been flooded with activity! TVS's official website is also down!"

"what?"

Professor Watanabe was taken aback and immediately opened Twitter.

Instantly, countless angry comments and tag messages flooded his view like a tsunami.

"@WatanabeOldDog, where's your bullshit 'theory of creative laws'?! Why aren't you spouting it now?"

"Trash professor! To support your worthless student, you've distorted the truth and turned black into white. You don't even deserve to be called a scholar!"

"I suggest TVS investigate how much dirty money this old man received from Tetsuya Nishio!"

"I've already filed a formal complaint with the Kyoto University disciplinary committee! Just wait to be fired, you old geezer!"

Professor Watanabe was getting goosebumps just looking at it.

Suddenly, the president of Kyoto University called.

"Principal..." Professor Watanabe quickly answered the call.

“Professor Watanabe…” the principal sighed, saying helplessly, “Given your recent public statements and actions, which have seriously damaged the academic reputation of our university, the university council has decided that, starting next semester, all your research grants and graduate student recruitment quotas will be cancelled.”

After saying that, the call was hung up directly.

Professor Watanabe stared blankly at his phone, as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water, his whole body turning cold.

Eliminating funding and graduate student quotas is tantamount to stripping a university professor of their claws and teeth, eliminating all influence in academia, and turning them into a mere "teacher" who can only give lectures.

He slumped into the chair, looking utterly dejected, and aged twenty years in an instant.

……

……

Tetsuya Nishio's blog comment section has changed from a "sea of ​​sympathy" to a "sea of ​​anger"!

"Liar! You literary fraud! An 'idealist'? Is your ideal just to rise to the top by suppressing newcomers?!"

"Trash! I've read your 'The Lament of Nothingness,' you're not even worthy of shining the shoes of 'After School'!"

"Get out of the literary world! You are no longer worthy to pick up a pen!"

The comment section was flooded with endless insults and ridicule.

Unable to bear the immense disparity and humiliation, Tetsuya Nishio deleted all his accounts that same day and disappeared from public view.

Chapter 46 Three Hundred Million in Royalties!! (4/4)

……

……

Inside the editor-in-chief's office of Chuncheon Publishing.

Editor Onizuka was being verbally abused by his boss.

"Fool! Understand your opponent before you act!"

"Now look what's happened! All three of you are finished. Do you know how much this has cost the company?!"

"I...I just..." Editor Onizuka's face turned pale.

"You're just trying to stand up for your authors?" The editor-in-chief laughed angrily. "What's the point of saying all this now? What the loser says is just sophistry!"

"Go to the Kamakura branch office tomorrow; there's no place for you at headquarters."

From a top editor to being exiled to a remote branch office.

The editor, Onizuka, suddenly felt dizzy and almost fainted.

……

……

On the other side, the victors were celebrating!

All the people and organizations that previously supported Seiji Fujiwara are now reaping huge rewards.

The area in front of Professor Munakata's house, the chairman of the judging panel, was packed with readers and reporters who had come spontaneously.

"Master Munakata! You have a discerning eye! You are the one who truly defended the dignity of literature!"

"Recruiting talent without being bound by convention! This is the true spirit of the Rampo Prize!"

The jury's prestige reached an unprecedented peak, becoming synonymous with "breaking down prejudices and selecting the best."

Kodansha was beaming with joy!

The first print run of "After School" was 500,000 copies, and on the day of its release, 200,000 copies were snapped up in less than five hours.

The bookstores are calling so many times to expedite orders that they're practically knocking on the publishing department's office!

Kodansha's top management held an emergency meeting overnight and made a crazy decision—

"Print another 500,000 copies immediately!!"

The market for mystery novels in Japan is huge.

Let alone a million copies sold, even five million copies has been achieved by many authors!

If Seiji Fujiwara weren't a newcomer, they would have wanted to print an extra million copies!

……

On the Shinazugawa Bunko side.

They seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and immediately launched an overwhelming marketing campaign.

"Want to know how the King of Deduction was forged? Then look at his other side—the fantasy epic 'A Certain Magical Index' by the King of Light Novels, 'Lord Xiaochuan'!"

"Shocking! The debut work of a mystery genius is actually a bizarrely styled dark comedy gunfight novel? — '6 Days, 6 People, 6 Guns' takes you into the inner world of Seiji Fujiwara!"

The effects are absolutely terrifying!

Countless readers, captivated by "After School", flocked to bookstores with a pilgrimage-like mentality, clearing out their entire stock of "A Certain Magical Index" and "6 Days, 6 People, 6 Guns"!

For a time, an unprecedented spectacle appeared on the bestseller lists of major bookstores in Japan—

First Place: After School

Second place: A Certain Magical Index Volume 2

Third place: A Certain Magical Index Volume 1

Fourth place: "6 Days, 6 People, 6 Guns"

Seiji Fujiwara, with his unreasonable attitude, swept the entire bestseller list with his four works!

"One man slaughters an entire list!"

Someone posted this remark online, and it immediately resonated with everyone.

Shinazugawa Bunko's marketing plan was a huge success. Three of its works were boosted by "After School", which gave them a second spring in sales and made them a fortune.

The entire light novel industry felt unprecedented excitement and pride because of Seiji Fujiwara's "cross-over godhood"!
