Chapter 162

Chapter 162: The 14th volume of "Phantom Blade" is published, and the king meets the king!

It was five o'clock in the afternoon.

It was almost time to get off work, but it was not yet nightfall. The sky in Tokyo had darkened a little, and it looked like it was going to rain.

At the same time, the editorial office of Dengeki Bunko was brightly lit.

Everyone looked at the light novel manuscript in their hands, and a touch of shock appeared in their narrow eyes.

"The editor-in-chief really has a way!"

"Mura Masaru is really willing to send the manuscript to us."

"It turned out to be the long-lost "Phantom Blade". I felt my hands shaking when I held it in my hand!"

They looked at the 14th volume of "Phantom Blade" in their hands, and they were all surprised.

You know, Japanese light novels.

It is normal to have a bad ending, and it is rare to have it finished.

Especially when Senju Mura Masaru has other new works, editor-in-chief Kagurazaka can actually let Mura Masaru continue to write Phantom Blade. This is really surprising.

This made them even more impressed by Kagurazaka's ability as the editor-in-chief.

"Editor-in-chief Kagurazaka, how did you do it? Tell us quickly?" a female editor asked hurriedly.

"Yes, how did you get Mr. Mura Masayuki to submit his manuscript?"

Everyone was also very curious about Kagurazaka's answer, and they all looked over.

Senju Mura Masayuki is a thunder god-level author in Dengeki Bunko, and no publisher is allowed to approach the Plum Garden Mansion. They have already thought of 10,000 ways to force him to submit his manuscript, but they are all difficult to achieve.

But unexpectedly, Kagurazaka gave them a light answer:

"This, in fact, has nothing to do with me." Editor-in-chief Kagurazaka waved her hand and smiled, "I just told Mr. Mura Masayuki that someone wanted to read the 14th volume of "Phantom Blade"."

Everyone: "..."

The editorial office suddenly fell into a long silence, and you could hear a pin drop.

Hiss, which god from Takama-ga-hara is this?

They blinked their eyes, and in their hearts, they were shocked and a little amused. Thousands of readers and editors had no way to ask for updates, but in the end, it was published just because someone wanted to see Mr. Mura Masayuki. It seems that they were wrong after all!

Obviously, her words directly hit everyone and hurt them.

Kagurazaka was also a little helpless.

She was also hurt at first, but this was reality.

But soon she let it go.

No matter who it was, anyway, this "Phantom Blade" was in hand, and that was considered the victory of Dengeki Bunko.

"It seems that we can make more use of Yu-kun's "Succubus" attribute in the future!"

The more the corners of Kagurazaka's mouth rose, at this moment, she was like a fox that had caught its prey by chance, and her eyebrows were filled with uncontrollable joy.

Seeing that everyone wanted to continue gossiping, Kagurazaka's face turned cold.

"Okay, you guys start!" She waved her hand.

Everyone's eyes suddenly flashed with disappointment.

But they were soon attracted by the manuscripts in their hands, and nodded excitedly, just like extremely thirsty people who saw a clear spring, and began to read.

Seeing this, Kagurazaka on the side couldn't help but smile.

Excellent works do have such an effect.

Kagurazaka Ayame calmly drank a sip of coffee.

Because as a manuscript collector, she has read it once and entered the sage mode.

As for the latest volume of "Phantom Blade".

I can only say that it is very smooth and she likes it very much.

As expected of being one of the youngest eight thunder gods in Dengeki Bunko, he really didn't disappoint.

"Will it be more interesting than Yu-kun's work?"

Thinking of the serious look of the girl when submitting the manuscript, Kagurazaka Ayame showed a faint smile.

"This century-long battle seems to be quite interesting, but I don't know if Yu-kun is strong enough."

She inexplicably felt a strange sense of excitement in her heart.

She likes the feeling of this kind of arena duel the most.

Suddenly, the sound of an email came from Kagurazaka's office computer.

Hearing this sound, Kagurazaka was stunned, and couldn't help but say: "Could it be Yu-kun?"

She carefully opened the mailbox and found that it was indeed the latter part of "Plastic Memories".

Kagurazaka's eyes lit up immediately. It seems that the reminder text message is effective.

But she couldn't help frowning, "But why did you choose to send it half an hour before get off work?"

Kagurazaka's pretty face wrinkled.

"Yu-kun must have done it on purpose!"

She felt Nanahara Yu's deep resentment.

But it doesn't matter.

As long as she can finish reading the content of "Plastic Memories", overtime is just a small matter for her.

Thinking that others are still reviewing the places that need to be marked for changes in "Phantom Blade", they should not have time to deal with "Plastic Memories", so she just read it alone.

Kagurazaka couldn't wait to open the electronic manuscript.

I have to say.

From the previous part, Nanahara Yu's new work is very interesting.

It is definitely not worse than the first few volumes of Phantom Blade.

But I don’t know what will happen in the latter part.

But she thinks it may be a bit unfair to compare it with Phantom Blade Volume 14, because Phantom Blade is a super long novel, and the climax chapter accumulated from the first 13 volumes is probably slightly better in Phantom Blade Volume 14.

But she hasn’t had time to read the latter content of Plastic Memory, so she can’t comment on it yet, and can only estimate.

Anyway, Nanahara Yuu’s popularity in light novels is not worse than Senju Muramasagi’s, but the first thirteen volumes of “Phantom Blade” have accumulated many readers for Muramasagi, and they can also drive the sales growth of the previous volumes. Long stories still make a lot more money than medium and short stories.

In short, in terms of sales, “Phantom Blade” should still be better.

But literature is a very subjective science, and the evaluation of editors and libraries cannot determine the results. Everything must be verified by the market.

She turned directly to the end of the direct “preview”.

Kagurazaka was indeed very curious about the plot later, and she was immediately immersed in the text.

“…”

For a long time.

Kagurazaka Ayame came back to her senses and let out a long breath.

She realized that it had been raining outside the window at some point.

Just like her mood.

Kagurazaka felt lost and empty in her heart.

“Can I really meet the important person again?” Kagurazaka added in her heart, a little sad.

This is the characteristic of Youjun: using very moving words to depict a very cruel plot.

"How can a high school student write so well?"

Kagurazaka Ayame was stunned!

She originally thought that "Phantom Blade" would win, but after reading the second half of "Plastic Memories", she actually hesitated.

"Phantom Blade" belongs to the school supernatural novel.

Even though the latter part is very exciting and passionate, it feels over after it ends.

But "Plastic Memories" gave her a different impression.

It seems that the emotions in "Plastic Memories" are closer to reality. She feels that she will still remember this ending and even the story line even after three or five years.

If she had not read the second half, she would have voted for "Phantom Blade" without hesitation, because the previous plot, in the case of the knife when they met, although she was also cut, lacked foreshadowing, but there was always a sense of deliberateness, which could move their editorial team. It can be said that it was all due to the writing skills of Nanahara You.

But later, he used more than a dozen short stories to pave the way for the relationship between Si and Ella, and to portray the lovely image of Ella that has been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Every word in the second half seemed to be able to open people's emotional resonance, give her a strong feeling, and turn on people's tears, making people feel uncomfortable in their hearts. People can accurately feel the power of words, so deeply that their emotions are mobilized by words, and their hearts are shocked by words.

"Can't it be clearly written whether Si's colleague is Ella?" Kagurazaka gritted his teeth and said.

Just like the ending of "Four Lies", it's just a matter of one sentence.

But this old thief makes you unhappy and makes you miss his book!

Kagurazaka Ayame, depressed!
