In the anime, cultivating a girlfriend starts from childhood

"I want it!"

The three girls' eyes lit up at the same time, and they nodded repeatedly like chicks pecking at rice.

Ryosuke smiled faintly and said confidently: "First, the fairy goes out to lure away the group of Chuunibyou. Some of the people in the elementary school also know you, but their enthusiasm for you is far less than that of Morika."

At the same time, he thought to himself that if he let the fairy go out first, there would be a risk of being caught by Machida, but after all, it was her responsibility to submit the manuscript. If she was caught, she could only say that she was unlucky.

Upon hearing this, Yamada Fairy nodded in agreement.

Although Ryosuke's words were somewhat direct, Lord Mori, who created the "Dark Scripture", was the key reason why that group of people worshipped Mori Xia.

Ryosuke then turned his attention to his childhood friend.

"Secondly, Morixia will pretend to be a fellow enthusiast at the exhibition and run into the group of girls in my class. Then guide them to buy the good stuff quickly. Just leave the exhibition hall, and I will pay for your extra shopping."

Mori Xia stretched out his forearm, made a salute gesture, and said confidently: "Leave it to me."

Ryosuke nodded and looked at Eriri, "In the end, it's up to you, Lily."

As soon as he finished speaking, before he could continue, the four women around him fell into a daze at the same time.

The first person to come back to her senses was Sayuri Sawamura. She glanced at her daughter thoughtfully and the smile on her face grew even wider.

It seems that my own daughter is not completely incapable, Hiratsuka-kun even uses this name for her.

Morika's eyes widened as she stared at Ryosuke blankly, a look of disbelief on her face.

Lili? Is this Eriri's nickname?

Were you and her so close? When did it start?

There is something about Ryosuke that even I, Mori-sama, don't know? !

The Yamada fairy's daze was due to surprise.

She had great respect for Ryosuke.

You are so awesome, Ryosuke. I have always underestimated you.

Your childhood sweetheart, Morixia, is right here. How dare you call another lovely girl by such an intimate nickname in front of her?

As for Eriri, her brain was in a state of shutdown and there was even a faint trace of steam coming out of her head.

She had never expected that Ryosuke would actually call her Lily in front of her mother.

You big idiot! I only let you use this nickname when you are helping me hide my identity. I didn't let you call it in front of my mother.

Noticing the abnormal state of the four people, Ryosuke frowned slightly and asked: "You, what's wrong?"

Sayuri Sawamura took a few steps forward and gently patted Eriri's head to help her daughter come back to her senses.

Then she turned around and smiled at Ryosuke, "It's okay, Hiratsuka-kun, just continue."

Ryosuke nodded, looked at Eriri and continued, "The illustrations for the second volume of Sword Art Online are almost finished, right? I don't have any new illustration requests coming up, so you can lure Machida away under the pretext of cooperating with fairies. Of course, this depends on whether you have the intention to cooperate with fairies. If you don't want to go, it's the same if I go to lure Machida away."

Ying Lili fell into deep thought after hearing this.

Her current fan club is called "egoistic-lily", a small club founded by her father last year, with only three people from the same family as official members.

Even though she has illustrated two of Ryosuke's light novels, she is still an unknown little artist.

The reason why so much thought was put into this summer comic is to increase Eri Kashiwagi's fame.

Because she realized a serious problem.

As an illustrator, her fame is gradually becoming unworthy of Ryosuke.

At first, many readers will notice that the illustrations in light novels are beautiful.

But after the novel became a hit, the author's fame definitely soared.

As for the name of an illustrator, unless the illustrator has produced a large number of works, few people will pay special attention to who the author of the painting is. At most, when they see it, they will just praise it by saying something like "This painting is so beautiful."

Her own personal website does not have as many fans as Ryosuke.

If this continues, over time.

She would be thrown further and further away by Ryosuke, and it would appear that she was lying on top of him and sucking his blood.

In fact, Eriri is a very strong-willed, even paranoid and fanatical girl.

So after she finished drawing for Ryosuke recently, she also thought about cooperating with fairies.

After all, she was also a fan of Fairy, they were of similar age and hobbies, and they lived close to each other.

The most important reason is actually a bit metaphysical, that is, she can sense that the fairies also have some similar aura.

Ying Lili raised her head, and there was only determination in her blue eyes.

She looked at Ryosuke and said to him firmly, "Leave the task of luring Machida away to me."

After saying this, she quickly glanced away and whispered with a lack of confidence: "But don't get me wrong, I didn't make this decision based on your advice. I...I did this for myself."

The most surprised person was Yamada Fairy, who was delighted when she heard Eriri's words.

He looked at Eriri with a pair of sparkling eyes and said with a grin, "Are you saying you want to draw illustrations for me? That's great!"

Then the goblin suddenly realized a problem.

According to the plan, she seemed to be the first one to go out.

So she looked at Ryosuke and asked with a smile: "Ryosuke, I'm the first one to go out. What if I get caught by Machida at the beginning? You should have thought about this problem, right?"

Ryosuke didn't answer, but just smiled slightly.

The smile on Yamada Fairy's face faded a little.

She narrowed her eyes and tentatively asked uncertainly: "You have thought about this question, right?"

Ryosuke just looked at her quietly without saying a word.

Yamada Fairy seemed to have thought of something and the smile on his face completely disappeared.

The blood instantly drained from her face and she slid back under the table.

The fairy held his head under the table and muttered to himself, "No! It would be terrible if I got caught! Machida said he would lock the small dark room, and I just escaped..."

When she thought about being thrown into a dark room and becoming an emotionless typing machine, she felt sad.

The future is a bleak and devastating ending.

Chapter 107 But I Reject

Ryosuke glanced at Eriri and signaled her with his eyes to go in and see what was going on.

At this moment, Eriri seemed to have come to her senses and miraculously understood the hint in Ryosuke's eyes.

She went in and patted Yamada Fairy's hand, and assured him solemnly: "Fairy Teacher, no matter what the result is, as long as you follow the plan and be the first to go out, I will draw a few illustrations for you later."

Yamada Fairy raised his head when he heard the other party's words.

He looked at Eriri's sincere gaze with a pitiful puppy-like look and whispered, "Really? You can't lie to me."

Eriri held down her artist hat and nodded heavily.

Eri Kashiwagi's illustrations have become the white moonlight that Yamada Yoei longs for in her heart.

So she mustered up her rare courage, crawled out from under the table, stood up, dusted herself off, and took a deep breath.

He said to Ryosuke earnestly in a selfless tone: "Okay, then I'll take the lead. I'll help you this time. Ryosuke, if I have any difficulties in the future, you have to help me."

Ryosuke made a fist with his right hand, tapped his heart twice, and assured the Yamada Fairy solemnly: "Don't worry, Fairy Teacher. If you have any difficulties in the future, I will do my best to help you."

In the exhibition hall.

After the fairy and Morixia left, only Eriri was still standing there stupidly.

"Are you not feeling well? If you don't want to go, it won't make any difference if I go." When Ryosuke Hiratsuka saw Eriri hesitating, he thought that she was somewhat resistant to this plan.

Eriri shook her head and asked in a tone that was five parts hesitant, four parts confused, and a little tangled: "Ryosuke, do you really not mind if I draw illustrations for fairies?"

Ryosuke sneered when he heard this. Eriri has a very simple mind and her inner thoughts are easily revealed through her facial expressions.

"Why do you think so? Do you think that drawing a few illustrations for Yamada Fairy is a betrayal to me?"

Having her thoughts exposed, Eriri did not deny it for once, but just lowered her head silently.

Ryosuke touched Eriri's head through her hat and said softly, "Lily, do you still remember sunflowers?"

"Senior Nozaki once told me that if you want to become a top painter, you must never forget your love for painting."

“People who act in unison are called collaborators or colleagues, and those who can be of the same mind as you can be called partners. True partners have no distance restrictions.”

"I don't know how to paint, so we work in different directions and take different paths, but our goals are the same. This is the meaning of partnership. Don't forget that you are not alone."

"You aspire to become a top painter, and I also aspire to see you blossom in the most beautiful way in the painting world in the future."

Eriri lowered her head and recalled the past.

For many days and nights, she walked alone in the cold world.

Whenever the night falls, a young man named Hiratsuka Ryosuke always brings her light again and again.

The warm light gradually made her feel dependent on it.

Her body gradually relaxed, and the confusion and hesitation on her face gradually disappeared.

It's really cunning to say such things at a time like this, stupid Ryosuke.

Finally, she raised her head and smiled at Ryosuke Hiratsuka, revealing her little white fangs.

"Then I'll go, Ryosuke." After saying this, Eriri trotted away.

"Lily is always not frank enough. I hope you can take care of her more in the future~" Sayuri Sawamura covered the lower half of her face with a fan, her eyes curved.

Only now did she realize how important this young man was in her daughter's heart.

Even her mother rarely sees Eriri in that state.

……

After one hour.

Sayuri Sawamura and Ryosuke Hiratsuka were selling doujinshi at the stall.

But they also discovered a very serious problem.

There are too many remaining goods. If we continue to sell at the current rate, we will never be able to sell them all.

They are a small and unknown society and have not printed so many products in previous years.

Not only has the printing volume of doujinshi increased this year, but the summer comic season has also come to its last day.

After a while, the two golden-haired lolis returned to the stall one after another.

"Where is Mori Natsuto? Wasn't she the first one to go out?" Ryosuke asked curiously.

Yamada the Fairy glanced away and said awkwardly, "I did send that group of people out of the exhibition hall just now, but I didn't expect two more groups of people to come later. Now I don't know where Mori Xia is hiding."

She now inexplicably felt a little sympathy for that group of people, who were abandoned by their own beliefs.

Then the fairy turned to look at Eriri and said excitedly, "My new book will be finished soon. When will you draw the illustrations for me?"

Before Eriri could respond, the fairy felt her shoulders being pinched, making her body unable to move.

Could this feeling be...

She turned her head stiffly like a robot, and what came into her eyes was the kind smiling face of Machida Sonoko.

Machida held Yamada Fairy with one hand, moved his head to her ear, and whispered, "Fairy Teacher, the small dark room is ready for you. Come back with me. I will add a few more locks this time."

The Yamada Fairy looked at Eriri in disbelief, her little mouth opened but she couldn't speak.

The sadness in his eyes was hard to hide.

The fairy's voice became intermittent, even a little hoarse: "You... betrayed me? Didn't you take her out?"

Ying Lili looked confused.

After she had talked with Machida, she sent him out of the exhibition hall. Why did she come back?

Machida Sonoko didn't keep them waiting too long and told them the answer.

A sunny smile appeared on her face, but the strength of her hands continued to increase.

He said to the Yamada Fairy in a gentle voice: "I came back to say goodbye to Teacher Ryou, but just after I came back, fate led me to meet you, Fairy Teacher~"
