Chapter 25: Chapter 23 -A system Upgrade

 

Meanwhile back in Lilian Akamatsu Studio,

Word has gotten out, The head manager of Jamp manga has mailed her manager Mary the verdict. It was as expected. Mary could only shrug as she looked at the old soul in front of her still immersed in her own creation as she create the next shoujo masterpiece, Her previous work "The Villanous Father and her Villanous Wife" won a lot of awards even breaking into the International Market and threaten the Korean Super manhwa award, Her manga breaks the barrier of works as it's tropes touches on the very soul of every shoujo out there, She is a master of the tropes and she sets the trends for these tropes.

Mary was simply smiling as she stared at Lilian's back immersed in her own little world, Kikite came by and gave Mary a look, Mary simply nodded at her and gave her a thumbs up for a job well done.

"Not to worry, You pass the top three, congratulations kiddo. You're in the big leagues now"

A simple sigh seems to be released and her tense shoulders started to relax. Haruka Kikite could only smile in agony, she didn't want to sacrifice her work for another if possible, she was only glad that she gets to be in the top three,

" I'm guessing that Tochigi kid is the first place?"

Mary could simply nod and smirk at her when she sees her become complacent.

" Ready for revenge Kikite? Comiket Summer is just around the corner, I bet my bottom dollars a guy like that will probably join that one too and release something incredible, why not bet on society for once? let the money and fans do the talking, nothing beats a paying customer for real data"

Kikite wanted to shake her head but instead simply nodded slowly, as her shrugs turns to sorrow

"That means I gotta compete against sensei too, she's entering the too you know? for that visual Novel game?"

Mary could only pat her back heartily with a smiling face and said

" Welcome to the big leagues, Never said it was easy, now finally you're on even ground right? even so, I have faith you will probably come close, have faith in yourself. You snatched third place after all as your first debut, not many people get to do that besides, you won't be competing with your teacher directly since it's a Visual Novel"

Kikite could only look at her sensei's back immersed in her work as she wield her digital pen in absolute fury and grace, She wanted to do that too soon, digital art, she can't wait to get involved with new tech, the world is changing and new ways of animating manga is being introduced, some people are averse to the effect of the new generation of manga artist and their ability to use newer tools with faster and cleaner results, in this world, results do matter after all.

" Sure, I'll think of something,  looking at sensei working hard like this, I won't lose in spirit and fire when it comes to my art! That Tochigi is going down!!"

"that's the spirit!"

said Mary as she took out her phone and key in a bunch of stuff, Kekite was curious and ask what she was doing,

"What are you typing Mary?"

Mary only look at Kikite cluelessly and said

"I'm ordering Supper, Is sushi good? Looks like it will be another late mid-night scrims for the both of you"

Kikite could only teared up gratefully for Mary, she really knows her master and herself much better than she knew herself. It's good that she had a manager and Editor like her.

.......

Back In Alex's studio.

Less than ten seconds after the warm current disappeared,  there was a glitch happening to the system, before he could say anything time was dilated and simply stopped. The surrounding turned grey, he couldn't move, he couldn't breathe, something is interfering with the reality of this world.

Alex began to panic. A system dinged in his mind- the UI pops up. something was really wrong this time, this wasn't like the previous system prompt. Something was definitely wrong with the flavor text that he was reading. It's far more flamboyant than the beginning.
