A group of people traveled through a strange world, and I was the only one who was not a refugee.

"Yes."

The two answered in unison, first looking at each other, then looking at Akita Shin.

I didn't notice it before, but now it seems that there are indeed some big doubts.

"Now that you're here, just go in."

Akita Makoto just smiled. He already knew the reason and was not worried about any danger inside.

"Welcome... Sir, do you have an appointment or...?"

As soon as Akita Shin pushed the door and entered the coffee shop, the staff came to greet him.

But when she saw the badge on his chest, her tone instantly became extremely cautious.

Even in coffee shops located in the inner city, most of the customers are extraordinary people who are not short of money, or their family members.

But a B-level psychic... was the first one she had seen since she started working.

"I have an appointment. It should be with those two ladies."

Akita Shin raised his chin slightly and pointed to a seat not far away.

Kato Megumi, the other two, and the store clerk all looked in that direction at the same time.

One of them is relatively young, in his early twenties, and seems easy to get along with.

The other middle-aged woman, wearing glasses, had a strong temperament and sharp eyes.

"It's a bit like the strictest teacher in middle school." Kato Megumi thought to herself.

The coffee shop was not small, and because of its location, the two women naturally saw Akita Makoto and the three women behind him.

They were stunned at first, then looked at each other and saw the relief in each other's eyes.

"grown ups."

"Akita-sama!"

"Sit down. No need to be so polite."

Akita Shin stopped the two from getting up and took the business cards they handed over.

After taking a casual glance, he handed it to Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Eriri.

The younger one is Norika Kamikawa.

Middle-aged woman——Yoshizu Haruna.

Even though the two sides hadn't started a formal conversation yet, Kato Megumi understood.

No wonder the manuscript was approved so quickly this time, it turns out it’s because of Zhen Adult.

But she still has a doubt, which is also the puzzlement of Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Eriri.

When submitting a manuscript, one only leaves one's name and address. It is impossible for a magazine or light novel publisher to investigate every submitter.

"Lord Akita, I didn't expect you to come here in person."

Yoshitsu Haruna pushed up the frame of his glasses to hide his inner uneasiness.

"and many more……"

Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned and asked, "Do you two know the real master?"

Akita Shin glanced at her, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said nothing.

"Ms. Kasumigaoka, don't you know?"

She belongs to the light novel publishing house and, if nothing unexpected happens, Kamikawa Norika will be working with her in the future, took over the topic.

"what do you know?"

The two looked bewildered.

Yoshitsu Haruna looked at them thoughtfully, then glanced at Akita Shin, and took the initiative to explain:

"The magazine I work for and the light novel publishing house where Miss Kamikawa works are both among the best in the industry in Kyoto. Naturally, I can use some personal connections to avoid some headaches."

"If the contributor is a retainer, although Kyoto has no clear policies or regulations to restrict his creative freedom..."

"If the master and servant's family disagree, it will be difficult for us to handle it..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly realized, but Sawamura Eriri was still a little confused.

Akita Shin concluded with a faint smile:

“To put it simply – the existing refugee system takes precedence over no policy.”

“After passing the preliminary selection, the next step is to exclude the host families with cases.”

"Ms. Yoshizu and the others asked you to meet this time mainly to confirm whether you have obtained permission for the creation."

As for why he was able to know it in advance, it was because he had had several experiences when he was in the third out-of-city branch.

The first is to mediate conflicts.

The second is the so-called favor, which is to retrieve the simple identity information of the contributor from the database.

"Just like what Lord Akita said." Kamikawa Norika nodded in agreement.

The need to confirm the identity of the creator may sound outrageous and can even be interpreted as discrimination.

But there are historical lessons to be learned. Take the light novel publishing house where she works as an example. Every year there are a few owners who come to the headquarters and make a scene...all causing trouble.

At this point, the matter is completely clear.

Although it sounds like she has to fall behind, Kasumigaoka Utaha is very confident in her hard work over the past month, so she doesn't think it's a big deal.

Eriri Sawamura is different.

All the illustrations were adopted. Even the most naive people should know that the magazine company was doing this for Akita's sake, and they might even use it to build a relationship...

Akita Zhen didn't shy away from the fact that there were outsiders present and whispered something in her ear, which made her feel much better.

The atmosphere then became much more relaxed.

Since it was a bit cramped for four people to sit in one row, Akita Shin sat down next to Kato Megumi and teased her occasionally.

This made Kato Megumi very shy. After all, besides Kamikawa Norika and the other person, there were several other customers in the coffee shop who would occasionally look over here.

In desperation, she could only use a coquettish look or an unhappy expression to signal him to stop this behavior.

Half an hour later.

Watching the four people leave, Yoshitsu Haruna asked, "Ms. Kamikawa, does the light novel publisher have the same considerations?"

“No.” Kamikawa Norika shook her head. “Ms. Kasumigaoka’s work does have some shortcomings, but overall it is a good work.”

"That's it..."

Yoshitsu Haruna nodded and said nothing more.

At the magazine, after her superior learned about this, he did intend to show his favor to the adult who had B-level strength at such a young age.

But simply adopting all illustrations is not a big favor.

For high-level transcendents, this amount of royalties would be so small that they would not even bother to pick it up if it fell on the ground.

But it is also a rare opportunity.

Chapter 204: 202. Becoming a God, Plague, and the Source of Misfortune

After leaving the coffee shop, it was exactly noon.

Akita Shin took the three girls to a nearby restaurant with lighter flavors and had a quick bite.

Afterwards, we walked towards a larger hospital in Kyoto.

However, when they saw the entrance of the hospital from afar, Akita Makoto raised his eyebrows slightly, while Kato Megumi and the other two hesitated.

Because right in front of us, at the gate of the hospital, it was extremely noisy, and the doctors in white coats were anxiously discussing something.

In addition, there were police officers maintaining order, as well as patients staying not far away.

Kato Hui thought for a moment and said, "Sir, why don't we go to another hospital."

"I'm going to go see what's going on. Shiha and Eriri, you two can go find a place to sit with Hui first."

Akita Shin shook his head. This hospital was where he arranged "Nakano Maruo" to work, and the nearest hospital was at the other end of the inner city, which was not very close.

"it is good."

Although Kasumigaoka Utaha was a little curious, she also wanted to follow and take a look.

But since Akita Zhen said so, she had to suppress her curiosity. She couldn't just let Sawamura Eriri accompany Kato Megumi alone.

She is pregnant now, so she can never be too careful.

As Akita Makoto came closer, he saw a few familiar faces.

Ryozo Sakai, Akina Edo, and several familiar police officers, the last of whom was the chief of the precinct where this area was located.

"It's Akita-sama!"

Edo Akina did not get involved in the adults' troubles. She was the first to spot him and came jogging over.

Unfortunately, because he was only five years old and his height was not advanced, his head could only barely reach Akita Makoto's waist.

"Akina, long time no see."

Seeing her looking up at him with an excited look on her face, Akita smiled.

Bending down slightly, he ruffled her hair while carefully observing her current condition.

Compared to when she met the old woman who was still alive, the blood-colored lines on her skin that could breathe independently had completely disappeared.

This also means that she has officially entered the extraordinary system of "Spell Master".

Unfortunately, it was because of the influence of the power sealed in her body by the old woman through the initiation method.

Before she possesses her own power, if this force is exhausted, she will be transformed from a supernatural being back into an ordinary person.

By the same token, when her strength is able to absorb this power, it can be regarded as her foundation, and it will not be difficult for her to be promoted in a short period of time.

The final result depends only on how she views and uses this power.

"Akita-sama."

A voice suddenly sounded.

The big and the small looked at the same time, and saw Sakai standing beside them with a respectful look on his face.

Akita said helplessly: "Be more normal."

"It seems that you haven't changed."

Sakai's expression suddenly changed, and he punched his shoulder with a smile.

"It's nothing more than a slight improvement in strength. It hasn't reached the point of having no desires or requests yet."

Akita Shinya joked.

For him, he didn't have many friends after traveling to this world.

Ryozo Sakai was among them.

The old woman who has passed away was both a teacher and a friend to Akita Makoto.

There are also a few other people whom I haven't seen for a long time because of work.

As for his former teammate "Iwa Kiyoka", he didn't know if she would change after her marriage with the Kujo family.

After all, those who are still alive will never just stay in the most beautiful and most inspiring moments in their memories.

"In your opinion, to what extent will it change?" Sakai asked with a little curiosity.

Akita Shin glanced at him and said, "Become a god."

Sakai was stunned, while Edo Akina showed admiration on her face.

Right now, she doesn't know what "becoming a god" means...
