Beautiful Girl Strategy Guide

After conversing for a while with the beautiful girl in front of her, Natsume Rinno politely said goodbye.

The strange system and rewards that suddenly appeared didn't give him the urge to become a scumbag.

Love is a very troublesome thing, and sweet romance is always depicted in novels and anime that romanticize youth, so Rinno shys away from it.

If you really want to fall in love, there aren't that many criteria for choosing a partner. As long as they're nice and cute and don't cause too much trouble, that's enough.

Shiina Mahiru was also practicing her usual social distancing and was very happy with her new neighbor. At least he wasn't a dangerous looking boy.

Returning to her room, Rinno sat down in front of her computer, examining the new system. Meanwhile, the chat software was flooded with a huge number of messages.

[What about people?]

Why isn't it online yet?

"Don't play dead, give me your phone number quickly, or I'll go crazy."

Feeling sorry for her editor in her heart, Natsume Rinno logged into her account. There were already two people waiting in the chat room.

If you look at the time in the top left corner, you'll see that 30 minutes have passed.

"Master Enjo, this is the third time I can't get in touch with you. Can you give me your phone number right away?"

A mature woman's voice rang in my ears. Another person had their microphone muted. Only one editor, whose profile picture was Machida Sonoko, was chatting away.

"There's a small delay. Please forgive me, Editor-in-Chief."

Enjo is the pen name of Natsume Rinno, and it has the opposite meaning to Yukinoshita. Even those who know her would never have guessed that the creator of Sword Art Online, which is popular all over the island nation, is a high school student.

"How awful," Machida Sonoko complained, "But Professor Flame, no matter how hard you try to avoid it, this novel is about to be made into a manga, so you absolutely have to come and see me."

As the novel becomes more popular and sales grow, Sword Art Online, written by new author Enshan, is catching the attention of anime production companies.

Though the series is only up to Chapter 1, the wealth of content is enough to support a quarter of the series.

Phoenix Bookstore, where Natsume Rinno works, is negotiating an anime adaptation contract with him.

"We can talk about that later. Are you an illustration teacher?"

The details of the manga adaptation need to be discussed, and the illustrations in the new volumes need to be changed today.

Rinno asked her editor to help her find a reliable illustrator, as the illustrator she had previously worked with was busy with other projects.

The only condition is that the drawn character must have a sufficient number of colors.

No matter how high quality a light novel is, if the quality of the illustrations, which are the soul of the novel, declines, readers will become dissatisfied.

The most appealing thing about Sword Art Online is that, aside from Kirito's pretentiousness, it is inseparable from Asuna's hard work.

The name Ben Zina is more than just a name.

"So, following Enjo-san's advice, I sought out Kashiwagi-san, who is well-known in the industry."

Natsume Rinno didn't have much of an impression of Kashiwagi, but out of a sense of responsibility for the work, she asked some additional questions.

"Do you have any famous works? I'd like to know your style."

The other person hadn't said anything since entering the chat room. Upon hearing this request, the bottom left corner of the chat room began to update.

[Prince and female knight double lower body exposure]

[Masterpiece]

[Yong is so sexy]

The list continued to update, and Rinno knew something was off about the names, but in a last-ditch effort, he picked a name at random and searched for it.

On the screen, the beautiful mature woman placed her hands on the obi of her kimono and smiled seductively as she prepared to remove her last piece of clothing.

Natsume Rinno saw this and turned it off with a blank look on her face.

He is actually a painter over 18 years old...

Do you still need to maintain this editor? Please change it as soon as possible.

"Kashiwagi-sensei's drawing skills seem quite good," Rinno said in an affectational tone.

"Hey, this is a request from you. Kashiwagi-san is super famous in the other world, and has created many famous female characters!"

Motoko had put all her efforts into promoting Kashiwagi, but Natsume Rinno had not yet decided whether to use an artist aimed at people aged 18 and over.

He wanted an effect similar to that of a hentai film, but he couldn't actually express it in the form of a hentai film.

Can this painter get the balance right?

Minato-ku, Tokyo.

This area is where embassies from various countries are located, so it is brighter at night than during the day.

At night, Eriri was at home alone finishing up her manuscript. She took off her heavy glasses, shook her yellow ponytail, and stretched leisurely, looking relieved.

I've finally finished the script that I'll be selling next week. I just need to give it to my editor to print, so it won't affect my regular work.

But that editor is amazing. Even though I was still putting off submitting my manuscript, he mustered up the courage to look for a new job, and what's more, it was a job illustrating a shounen anime.

Sawamura Spencer Eriri seems like someone who could draw a shounen manga!

Seeing that Enjou didn't seem to trust her, Eriri sent a smiley face emoji indifferently, rose from her chair, and began preparing dinner.

Her parents were out attending an embassy dinner and she was at home. She didn't want to bother anyone around her, so she sneaked downstairs, found a few bags of sweets, and quietly returned upstairs.

"Enjo-sensei, please don't look at me with such prejudice. I think Kashiwagi-sensei's work is wonderful, even though it is for 18+ only. He is really good at painting beautiful women."

Editor Machida Sonoko gave serious advice that as a new editor just entering the industry, she was lucky enough to have been able to hire two excellent people, which is why she was able to be promoted so quickly.

Kasumi Shizuko is a specialist in youth romance. Although her sales are good, she is still a niche presence in the industry. However, two years ago, Enjo-sensei suddenly appeared and promoted her to deputy editor-in-chief.

Therefore, since Enjo Sensei's grades were related to his status at Phoenix Bookstore, a great deal of effort was put into finding Kashiwagi Sensei.

She believes that the combination of Marukami's work and Kashiwagi's illustrations will definitely drive sales to new highs.

Hayashino returned to his search history and the manga he had just read. After setting aside his prejudices about welfare manga, he was surprised to find that the women Kashiwagi drew were not only erotic, but also had the growth and highlights that befitted their characters.

However, the picture was so erotic that it made the innocent boy feel uncomfortable.

"Is Kashiwagi still here?"

Eriri put the bread on the table, put on her drawing glasses again, and smiled.
