Chapter 12: A Novel
" There's no need to bother so much senpai, I did that to protect myself as well, considering that the monster also shocked me last night " yuki said in a soft voice so that only Utaha could hear his words.
" Well, I know, but still, it won't change the fact that you saved me from harm last night, therefore if there is anything I can help in the future even if it is only a little, you can come to me at any time, as long as I can help I will definitely help you " utaha said as he returned to the lunch box he had brought.
Hearing Utaha's words, yuki smiled for a moment before returning to speak.
" Of course, I will definitely ask for your help if I run into any problems in the future" yuki said kindly.
Hearing yuki's words, utaha laughed softly before the two chatted for a while.
But when the students who were nearby saw the familiarity between yuki and utaha, they could not help but be stunned.
Whynot? to be honest with the level of existence of yuki in this school, there are still very few people who really know him, of course if we exclude some people with magical powers that can perform detection magic, very few people know or even know the existence of yuki itself.
As time passed, with small talk between yuki and utaha continuing, the sound of the school bell rang, signaling the beginning of the learning hours.
Saying goodbye to yuki, utaha turned around and left the yuki class with a carefree mood.
As if he did not care about the chaos he had caused in this class.
...****************...
Time passed, and at this time lunch time had arrived, with Yuki sitting on his stool as usual, he started to take out the lunch box that utaha had given him this morning, staring at the sparkling food that was in front of him yuki started to eat it slowly.
' It! Yuki thought calmly
But when Yuki is having lunch, she pulls out her Smartphone and starts visiting the Library World website once again.
Logging in on her akunya, yuki started doing some light revisions once again on All the drafts of the novel she wrote last night to ensure that there were no typos or Typo.
And after being convinced that there was no Typo on every word in the novel, yuki clicked on Surrender and would just wait for the time that would take care of the rest.
" i'm giving up all my future hopes on you, Overlord! " yuki said after sending about the first 20 chapters to Library world.
...****************...
Elsewhere, in Library World's main office, many editors are busy with all their work.
Given that currently Library World is holding an award event for newcomers that causes many novel works from newcomers have been sent over the past few weeks
And at this time, after one daily work look Machida Sonoko who has dark circles in her eyes, with eyes pecking at her, with eyes pecking at her, machida Sonoko started clicking the mouse on her computer to see the work the newcomers had sent.
" Ha~" with a heavy breath, machida Sonoko sighed slowly.
" Why haven't there been any good stories lately? Why do they all use the same template and routine on every novel they write? " machida sonoko complains with a tired-sounding tone.
" Machida-San, would you like to come with us for lunch together in the office cafeteria? " ask a beautiful woman who is a machida sonoko co-worker.
Looking to see the origin of the sound, machida sonoko sees her co-workers who have gathered in front of her.
" No, you guys go first, I still have to read one of these recently sent works before returning for lunch" Machida said tiredly.
" Machida-san you are the senior editor here, just leave the job to the newcomer, no need to bother with such a fuss "
Which is an indication that he has experienced fatigue due to working too long.
" That's fine but we hope you don't overwork so forget your own health "the advice of her co-workers with a worried expression.
" yes yes I will remember that "
With that said, Machida finally managed to evict all of her co-workers which made her the last person in this room.
Opening up the work of this newcomer, Machida sighed before muttering.
" I hope you don't disappoint me, newcomer "
With that, machida Sonoko opened the newly submitted novel, seeing the name of this newcomer, Machida Sonoko slightly smiled amusedly.
" shadows? Isn't this pen name rather...... impressed Chuuni? "
Stopping her small laugh, Machida starts reading the synopsis of the novel that Shadow sent her.
" this-Isn't this the cliche isekai story that was popular a few years ago? But it seems that this time the protagonist is not a human being at all, hm~ is interesting, but no matter how good the synopsis of a novel, the most important of the novel itself is the content " with that said machida sonoko began to read the overlord closely.
The bored expression initially seen on Machida Kuni's face began to disappear as she began to read the overlord further.
As if fascinated by every word and sentence in this Overlord story, Machida unknowingly read this novel for quite a while.
" this! Had I really read this novel 5 times in a row "as if not believe what he has done, Machida opened and saw the Clock on his smartphone.
There the clock is 12:55 which is an indication that he has been reading this novel for 40 minutes.
As if Dam had been sucked into the story itself, Machida almost missed her own lunch hour.
" This novel..... How should I say it, hm~ despite having an interesting story and can suck the reader into the story, hm, I am still somewhat doubtful whether the author can maintain this kind of situation for much longer "
Well, although overlords have a very interesting story, machida itself still has to be professional, he said, given that there are so many new writers who stop their stories in the middle of the road makes Machida feel a little doubt about this shadow.
In addition, although machida was still somewhat doubtful about the later development of the story, Machida himself had already seen the potential of this overlord.
Roughly speaking, he could make the guess that if a novel like this were adapted into a Light Novel, it would without a doubt sell up to 500,000 copies in one year
Also if he remembered the sales amount of one Library World's greatest novel title in a year, it could reach at least up to 1,000,000 copies, and the number of 500,000 copies in a year alone is already a very extraordinary thing.
And Machida himself had a premonition that in just one week the novel would explode that brought millions of people to read it.
Thinking that machida can only put this novel in the recommendation section for now, because the disconnection of who holds the event is not him but from the reader himself.
