As a young artist with master-level (level 7) painting skills, Shiina Mashiro is almost certain to become a master with level 8 skills in the future. Even if she is lucky enough and encounters an opportunity that allows her to gain some insights and take that crucial step, it is not impossible for her to surpass all the great artists in the art world throughout the ages, enter the level 9 realm, and become a legendary figure who has reached the limits of human beings.

As for level 10 ultimate creatures that surpass human limits and can rival gods with mortal bodies, it is generally impossible for them to exist - so far, only Shiki has mastered two level 10 skills.

Level 10 writing ability allows him to write a monumental work with just 10 words that would take an average writer words to complete. Even a few short sentences have terrifying appeal. No one will be able to remain indifferent to his writings within five hundred years. Level business ability allows him to see through other people's hearts in the business world as if he had the power to read minds, and even glimpse the future in a short period of time, thus making him invincible, comparable to the advanced observation Haki.

From this we can see how terrifying Shiina Mashiro's talent is. Excluding the system, it can almost be said to be the upper limit of human individual value.

Perhaps it is because of this that while fate gave her such a strong artistic talent, it also took away other things from her.

For example, the ability to empathize with others and the ability to take care of oneself in life.

This makes the girl's current situation, to put it nicely, full of pure and flawless beauty, or to put it bluntly, she is an idiot who can't even make a mess of her own clothes.

Fuyuo Kishihisa and Shiina Mashiro stayed quietly in Aoyama Nanami's ward without speaking a word.

After a while, perhaps the intravenous drip took effect, Aoyama Nanami groaned and slowly opened her eyes.

The moment she saw the unfamiliar ceiling, the girl's eyes were confused for a moment, and then she suddenly sat up as if she remembered something.

But her body obviously had not recovered enough to do such a thing, so after sitting up suddenly, she felt dizzy again and fell back onto the bed.

"Xiao Qi Hai..."

Shiina Mashiro came to the girl's bed a little nervously.

"Mashiro? Where is this place? Why am I in a place like this?"

Aoyama Nanami asked dazedly.

"Just now, Nanami suddenly fainted..." Shiina Mashiro had a pitiful expression on his face, and he stammered to explain: "I was so worried..."

"Is that so... So this is a hospital?"

Nanami Aoyama seemed to finally realize something. Then she looked at the ward where the surrounding instruments and electrical appliances looked very luxurious and high-end, and where there was only one bed for her in the spacious room. Her expression suddenly turned a little ugly.

"After diagnosis, it was found that you were just overworked and had low blood sugar. There is no serious problem. The drip you received is mainly glucose. We have not processed the hospitalization procedures. This room is only for temporary use. You will leave after the drip is finished."

Dongwei Kishikyu could not guess what this guy was worried about, so he said decisively: "You don't have to pay much."

"That's good……"

Nanami Aoyama finally breathed a sigh of relief. If she spent a lot of money here at once, her life might become difficult in the future. Now, she should be able to earn back the money by working overtime during the holidays.

"I regret it. I should have arranged for you to be hospitalized and also arranged for all the expensive drugs for the IV."

Glancing at her expression, Fuyuo Kishige sneered and said.

"Why!"

Nanami Aoyama looked at the other person with dissatisfaction, and then immediately recognized that this guy was the one who had competed with Mashiro in speed painting before.

After all, the quick-painted portrait, which might be worth more than $100,000, is still hidden in the attic of Sakurasou.

"Because you were so stupid that you didn't learn your lesson. I warned you last time when I left, didn't I? Don't continue working so hard. From the results, it seems that you didn't take my warning to heart, which ultimately led to this result."

Dongwei Kishi was not afraid of her dissatisfied look. Instead, he sneered and said, "If the bill this time is enough to make you feel heartbroken, maybe your stupid head will understand that you can't work so hard."

"I, I'm not as stupid as you say..."

"Working hard can indeed make money, but if you work so hard that your body has problems, then the money you earn becomes meaningless. It may not even be enough to pay for medical treatment, not to mention medicines and other expenses," Fuyuo Kishi continued venomously, "The human body is easily affected by the outside world. You take it for granted, just like eating too many mandarin oranges will turn your skin yellow, eating too many peppers will turn it red, and eating too much oleander will turn it green. Aren't you stupid enough?"

Aoyama Nanami said weakly: "I think the last one turned green for some other reason..."

"At this point you don't show any sign of reflection. Are you still continuing to complain?" Fuyuo Kishige looked down at Nanami Aoyama who was lying on the hospital bed with an expression that said 'my son, I'm very disappointed in you'.

"No, you were the one who was acting funny over there first." the girl whispered.

Although the girl understood that what the other person said was indeed correct, it would be completely putting the cart before the horse if she ruined her body by working to earn money.

But the problem is that she doesn't have a choice now.

If you want to pursue your dreams, you have to do this.

"Xiao Qi Hai."

Suddenly, Shiina Mashiro, who had just been pushed aside by Fuyuo Kishi, came to her bed and said in a serious tone: "I've made up my mind."

"what?"

Nanami Aoyama was stunned: Although Mashiro often speaks without context, it is very rare to see him being as serious as he is today.

The pure and icy girl stared at her on the bed for a long while before she said in a light voice, "I don't need your care anymore."

"Huh?" Nanami Aoyama couldn't help but frown.

But Mashiro had obviously made up her mind.

she continued.

"I'm moving out of Sakurasou."

Chapter 143 Comic Assistant

"Mashiro, wait a minute!"

Nanami Aoyama was startled by Shiina Mashiro's sudden words and was about to sit up, but her weak body made it impossible for her to do so. She could only anxiously reach out to Mashiro to hold her.

"If you keep moving like this," Fuyuo Kishihisa's voice suddenly came from the side, causing Aoyama Nanami to stop moving. He said, "In order to prevent problems with the infusion tube, I will ask the nurse to hold you down."

In fact, what Nanami Aoyama was receiving was just nutrient solution. Even if her hand moved randomly during the infusion, at most the blood would flow back into the infusion tube. It was not a big deal. The nurse would at most adjust her and give her some instructions. No one would really come and hold her down like they would a mental patient.

But as a working emperor, Nanami Aoyama, who had always been in good health and had never been hospitalized, had no idea about this. Her only impression of the hospital was that when someone fainted in TV dramas and needed emergency treatment, there would be a lot of people rushing to help. She was immediately frightened by the boy's words and could only look at Shiina Mashiro with wide eyes in panic.

Mashiro subconsciously took a step forward, but immediately came to her senses, stopped resolutely, and pretended to be indifferent.

It's just that the girl obviously hadn't learned much acting in the past, so she thought she was keeping her usual poker face, but that look of worry and self-blame could not be concealed at all.

"But what about Teacher Chihiro? She clearly asked me to take good care of you..." Nanami Aoyama could only move out of the other party's realm.

"I'll talk to her." Mashiro replied.

"If you leave Sakurasou, where are you going to live?" Aoyama Nanami asked anxiously with great concern: "And if you live alone, how are you going to live..."

"There will be a way."

This was the only point that Shiina Mashiro did not intend to give in to. She stared at Aoyama Nanami without blinking, "One can survive alone."

I don’t need to bother the other person anymore, I won’t be a burden to the other person anymore, and I don’t want to see the other person collapse from exhaustion anymore.

So even if you are alone, you have to try your best to survive.

This is Shiina Mashiro's determination.

"Would you like to hear my advice on this?"

Dongwei Kishiku, who had been watching for a while, spoke up.

The two of them looked at Fuyuo Kishihisa, and he said calmly, "Let me introduce myself again. I have officially debuted as a cartoonist, and my works will be available in major bookstores during the Golden Week. But for some reason, I will have some small difficulties in creating alone..."

Although Fuyu Kishige did not explain what "certain reasons" meant, the two of them more or less guessed something when they saw his pale face - after a period of infusion, Aoyama Nanami's face had color on it. Although she still looked a little weak, she had recovered a little, while Fuyu Kishige's face was almost bloodless. If an uninformed person were asked to guess who had just entered the emergency room by looking at his face, I'm afraid 99% of people would think it was Fuyu Kishige.

Furthermore, when Fuyuki Kishige spoke, he deliberately lacked strength in his voice, so that his voice sounded a little weak. Coupled with his slightly hunched body, his identity as a sickly person was completely confirmed.

"So actually I'm looking for a comic assistant who can help me with the creation."

Fuyuo Kishihisa continued.

"Comics...assistant?" Nanami Aoyama was stunned for a moment, then realized something.

But soon she stared at the other person with some suspicion again.

Although Shiina Mashiro looks silly and is a pure naiveté, her appearance is excellent. She is neither cute nor charming, but somewhere in between the two, with a sense of purity and beauty. She is a natural and unpretentious lotus that can inspire others' desire to protect and to abuse her at the same time.

Even in Toyo no Saki, where the quality of beautiful girls has been exceptionally high in the past two years, Shiina Mashiro's appearance can easily rank in the top three, and she is also a strong contender for the first place.

Many boys in the school covet Mashiro, and it's only because I'm there to protect her that nothing has happened so far. But this month has been very exhausting, and I think this might be the reason why I collapsed...

In short, Nanami Aoyama would never believe that the boy in front of her who looked like a vampire lord had no sexual interest in Mashiro.

The only reason that didn't make her object immediately was that this guy looked so weak that even the delicate Mashiro could knock him down with one punch...

Fuyu Kishige didn't care what Aoyama Nanami thought of him, and just continued, "Although the publisher has recommended some comic assistants to me, to be honest, I don't think highly of the abilities of those small fry, and I don't want them to get involved in my comics and lower the ceiling of my comics."

Aoyama Nanami: "..."

Let me see who is talking nonsense?

Oh, she is the one who can easily beat the talented young female painter who was received by the British Prime Minister in a speed painting competition in just over ten minutes. That's fine...

"Shiina Mashiro, I still recognize your ability. If you are willing to be my manga assistant, I can lend you my manga studio to live in."

Fuyuo Kishihisa said to the silly-looking girl - Shiina Mashiro's expression was so ignorant that even he couldn't help but doubt whether she understood what he meant.

But after thinking for a moment, Shiina Mashiro nodded: "Wow."

"Mashiro--" Nanami Aoyama still wanted to persuade the girl not to agree so easily.

But Fuyuo Kishihisa, who was standing next to him, had already taken out his cell phone and sent the address to Shiina Mashiro.

Then he glanced at Aoyama Nanami as if he knew what she was worried about, and added, "Besides, I have other places to live, and I won't live in the comics studio. Is it okay for you to be alone at night?"

"Moe and silly..." Shiina Mashiro nodded, and then added without much confidence: "Probably."

Nanami Aoyama's face was full of worry, but she also knew that this was Shiina Mashiro's decision, and it would be difficult for her to change her mind.

What's more, she did have a physical problem, and Shiina Mashiro was scared to death, which made her words almost uncredible.

A deep sense of loss was engraved deep in the girl's heart, making her feel indescribable emptiness.

She had tried her best, but in the end, she could not achieve anything. Everything seemed to be heading in the worst direction: she did not even pass an audition for her dream voice actor job, her academic performance in school had declined recently, she had damaged her health from working too many part-time jobs, and finally, even Shiina Mashiro, who she took care of every day, left her...

"By the way," suddenly Fuyuo Kishiu's voice sounded again, but this time the person he invited was not Shiina Mashiro, but Aoyama Nanami: "Are you interested in being a maid?"

Chapter 144: You Think Beautifully

Fuyuo Kishikyu naturally didn't want to introduce Aoyama Nanami to Wagunaria - there was indeed a shortage of people there, but with the addition of Yukinoshita Yukino, who was a hexagonal warrior in all aspects except for not being able to smile, they already had a considerable amount of spare space, especially after the Golden Week, it wouldn't be as busy as it is now, so they wouldn't recruit new workers.

Although the nice-hearted store manager might feel compassion after knowing what happened to Nanami Aoyama, this would not be a good thing for either Nanami Aoyama or Wagunaria.

Fuyuo Kishihisa made another suggestion.

"No, although it's called a maid, it may change depending on the situation... You can think of it as a model with the functions of a maid."

"……what do you want to say in the end?"

Aoyama Nanami asked doubtfully: "Please speak in words that I can understand."

"you idiot."

"..." Nanami Aoyama curled up in the quilt of the hospital bed angrily, looking like she didn't want to talk to Fuyu Kishi.

If Nanami Aoyama's friends saw her like this, they would probably be shocked. After all, the girl was usually gentle, considerate and understanding. She cared for everyone around her maturely and equally like an older sister, and had never shown such a little girl-like expression.

Perhaps it was because being "abandoned" by Shiina Mashiro was such a huge blow to her that it broke her defenses, which is why she behaved in this way that was similar to acting like a spoiled child.

After she calms down a bit, she will probably be so embarrassed by her behavior that she will want to say "Gu, kill me" right away.

"You probably need the money somewhere, so you work so many jobs, right?"

Dongwei Kishi ignored the girl's resistance. He was almost certain that she was listening to him attentively. "In that case, instead of exhausting yourself by doing so many odd jobs with low pay, it would be better to just take a long-term job with a salary about ten times higher, right?"

The girl stuck her head out and sighed helplessly.

"What's the difference between you and Queen Mary who said, 'If there's no bread, why not eat cake?'" She looked at Fuyuo Kishikyu and felt that this guy had no idea of ​​the sufferings of the world.

If it were so easy to find a job that paid well, there wouldn't be any unemployed people in the world...

"That's why I asked you, are you interested in becoming a maid?" Dongwei Kishi coughed twice and changed the subject with a smile.

"Wait a minute, the maid you're talking about is a 'long-term worker with ten times the salary'?" Nanami Aoyama finally came to her senses.

Fuyuo Kishiku nodded. "To be exact, it's 'my maid'."

"Let me make it clear that I will never do those weird things like dad, daddy activities and yen, yen intercourse," the girl's face turned a little red, as if she was ashamed of these words: "I will never do them."

"You think beautifully."

Fuyuo Kishige glanced disdainfully at the other's thin body - the level of ups and downs was only 2~3 of Yukino's, and he was quite confident: "In short, because my daily life is quite busy, I don't have much time to work as a cartoonist. Because of this, I don't have the time or spare time to clean the studio, so I need to hire a maid to take care of the housework in the studio, and to take care of me and serve me tea and water when I perform my duties as a cartoonist."

"That's it..."

Nanami Aoyama's expression became a little strange. Not only her, but even Mashiro Shiina showed a hint of surprise and hesitation.

Going to Fuyuo Kishihisa's studio means that the two of them will still be together...
