"Looks like I have to keep trying."

"Ok."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu rested her head on Igarashi's shoulder, staring blankly at the sky dyed orange-red by the afterglow of the setting sun. If Igarashi gave up Eiri and the others because of herself, Kasumigaoka Shiyu would naturally be happy, but at the same time. Will I be disturbed by this again, will one day, Igarashi give up on himself like Eri? However, when Igarashi was unwilling to give up on others because of himself, Shiyu Kasumigaoka became a little lost again, and this contradictory mentality made the girl feel at a loss.

Igarashi guessed how Shiyu of Kasumigaoka was feeling at this time. If her initial target was only senior, and she always warned herself not to have anything to do with other people, she would naturally not have any troubles now. , However, Igarashi's character determined that there would not be such a possibility. Now Igarashi can do nothing but act as the girl's support quietly and look up at the sky together with Kasumigaoka Shiyu.

Chapter 117 A Beautiful World

"Lan Jun, I'm hungry."

After a long time, Kasumigaoka Shiyu sat upright again, quit thinking about life, and looked at Igarashi pitifully, the black long straight girl who has never been very social with others, and now acted coquettishly without any ambiguity.

Igarashi has never thought about life, just accompanied Shiyu of Kasumi Hill. You must know that a girl with bumps and bumps sticking to her body is really a difficult thing for Igarashi, who is physically and mentally healthy. At this time, Kasumi Qiu Shiyu's words made Igarashi secretly relieved.

"I still have a few loaves of bread, you can make it first."

Igarashi had already bought a lot of bread at the school's canteen, and now it's in his schoolbag. It wasn't that he had guessed that Shiyu Kasumigaoka would be hungry after school, but that he lived alone for a long time and didn't want to cook. He made it for dinner and tomorrow's breakfast, eating is a pleasure, cooking is not.

"Lan Jun is well prepared."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu picked up a piece of bread satisfactorily and ate it quietly. Even Igarashi, who was sitting next to the girl, could not hear Kasumigaoka's chewing sound if he didn't pay attention. , but the etiquette of eating for girls is well learned.

"Uh, you've eaten bread, do you still have dinner?"

Igarashi looked up and down at Kasumigaoka Shiyu. Now that the girl has eaten this big piece of bread, I don't know if she will have dinner. Is senpai a foodie? I can't see this figure either, where did it all grow? Glancing at Kasugaoka Shiyu's chest, Igarashi suddenly realized.

Slowly swallowing the food in his mouth, and sensing someone's dishonest gaze, Kasumigaoka Shiyu rolled his eyes at Igarashi.

"Don't eat."

"Don't eat? Your family won't worry about you?"

Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who had been a little farther away from eating, now leaned on Igarashi again, as if she could take a look at the existence named Igarashi through this action.

"My family won't worry about this kind of thing. Even if I don't go back tonight, I'll be fine."

Is this implying yourself? Igarashi didn't have much concentration at first, but under the repeated provocation of Kasumigaoka Shiyu, he almost disappeared. He looked viciously at the girl who was close at hand, and he was also watching his own girl.

"If you continue like this, the consequences will be serious."

Aware of Igarashi's impending anger, Kasumigaoka Shiyu finally softened, stuck out his tongue, sat down again, and looked down at his watch, only to realize that it was getting late.

"Well, I have class tomorrow, so I'll go back first."

Taking a deep breath to suppress her restless mood, Igarashi looked at Kasumigaoka Shiyu, whose eyes became a little dodgy, but did not blame her for running away after she had been teased. As the person who was teased, fifty Lan said, the more the better.

"Do you need me to take you?"

Not even ready to become a couple, let alone some things that can only be done after becoming a couple, Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who knows Igarashi's terrifying power well, was a little scared because of Igarashi's meaningful words before, and hurriedly hurried. He waved his hand.

"No, I've walked that road countless times."

Although Shiyu of Kasumigaoka was generous and full of attack on Igarashi's actions, the actual girl's mood was not as relaxed as she showed.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu hesitated for a long time before making an appointment with Igarashi after school, and confirmed Igarashi's idea, so that the relationship between the two who had not had much interaction at once took many steps forward, and it was almost impossible to say anything. At the level of intimacy, Kasumigaoka Shiyu's mood was like a roller coaster rushing all the way up. Fortunately, in the end, it did not start to accelerate downward like a roller coaster that reached the peak, but remained at a satisfactory place.

For Shiyu of the Hill of Xia, the results of today's battle are quite rich. Although he can achieve better results, Shiyu of the Hill of Xia is completely unprepared.

Watching Shiyu of Kasumigaoka leave in a panic, Igarashi attached a ray of spiritual power to the girl. The sky has finally become a little dark now. Just in case, Igarashi still gives Shiyu a little to Kasumigaoka. a little defensive.

Although it is only a part of Igarashi's vast spiritual power, it is not something that anyone in this world can resist. If Shiyu of Kasumigaoka arrives home safely, that spiritual power will dissipate under Igarashi's control. , and once in danger, Igarashi can immediately detect when that ray of spiritual power sweeps away the enemy.

At this time, there was only Igarashi alone on the rooftop. The afterglow of the sunset, which was originally bright, has now become dim. The environment that is too quiet because there is no one is a little strange to ordinary people, but Igarashi There is no fear, the two-dimensional world has no horror that penetrates people, and even in many anime worlds, ghosts are the images of cute girls. If there are any ghosts in this everyday world, it will be worth it for Igarashi. happy thing.

With Igarashi's current physique as high as 84 points, a random punch can easily knock down a tall building, and after a jump, you can step on a bird with your feet. Destroying a city with all your strength is only a matter of time. In such a world without special force, it is already Igarashi, who is out of the realm of human beings, actually had a very boring life.

Fortunately, there are Shiyu Kasumigaoka and other girls with different personalities. For Igarashi, who believes that cuteness is justice, and beautiful girls are the treasures of the world, it is the most interesting to be able to bond with attractive girls.

Although the system almost disappeared after coming to this world, Igarashi can view his own attribute panel with a single thought. It seems that there is no problem with the system. When he leaves this world and settles his experience, it will naturally reappear. .

A system with few functions and a low sense of existence, the only purpose of its expression is to make itself stronger. Today's Igarashi has reached a level that no one can match in the ordinary world, but the flowers in the greenhouse cannot last forever. , To reach the point of eternity, Igarashi inevitably has to go to a world with gods and demons.

Now, as an ordinary person's daily life, let's cherish it. Although I have confidence in my future, Igarashi is not sure that the world in the future will be as harmonious as it is now.

By the time Igarashi felt that Shiyu of Kasumigaoka had returned home and let his spiritual power dissipate, it had been a long time. Looking at the dark and deep sky full of stars, it was different from the sunset, but just as beautiful. The scenery made Igarashi sigh softly.

"It's a beautiful world."

Chapter 118

Friday is the day when Sword Art Online will be released online and offline at the same time. However, as its author, Igarashi, because of the course, cannot go to the bookstore to check the sales of his light novel. Anyway, the library will inform him about the results of Sword Art Online. , even going to the bookstore wouldn't change anything, so Igarashi calmly sat in the classroom and taught.

In another classroom, Eiri, who is an illustrator of Sword Art Online, pays far more attention to the sales situation than Igarashi. She constantly flips through the Fantastic Bunko official website's comments on Sword Art Online with her mobile phone, and keeps an eye on the Internet. Every little increase in the sales scheduled by the channel made the girl feel a burst of joy. Eri, who was in a different classroom with Igarashi, could only keep sending him messages to report the situation.

Then Igarashi was bombarded with information. Among the various information from Eri, Igarashi learned a little bit about the sales status of Sword Art Online.

Although the specific content and quality of light novels are not yet known to the public, under the promotion of Bunko and the name of Yingri Kashiwagi, the sales of Sword Art Online are still growing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

At the same time that Sword Art Online was officially released, Fantastic Library also opened a personal website for Igarashi as its author. The mark is Mr. Yamabuki, the author of Sword Art Online. Many people who bought Sword Art Online have left messages under the website to express their support. If it wasn't for Igarashi's confidence in the quality of Sword Art Online, seeing so many people buying it now, I would be a little worried about their attitude after reading it in the future.

Ying Riri was still sending messages to herself, knowing that it was class time, and she didn’t know how the girl avoided the teacher’s eyes. After helplessly reminding Ying Riri to pay attention to the environment, the continuous bombardment of news stopped. .

When Igarashi returned home at night, his cell phone, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly received a message from Machida Yuanko.

"are you available now?"

Moments after Igarashi gave an affirmative answer, the phone displayed an incoming call alert.

"Miss Machida is busy calling me, why is it?"

On the other side, Machida Yuanko spoke angrily when he heard Igarashi's words.

"I'm so busy, it's not because of your Sword Art Online, you don't seem to pay any attention to your light novels?"

He is obviously the editor-in-chief of Bunko, but he is very busy with various things in Sword Art Online. As its author, Igarashi, on the first day of the official release of his work, behaved very leisurely. Bunko specially created a personal There are many people leaving comments on the website, but as the owner of the website, Igarashi didn't say a word on the website.

If it hadn't been for Eiri who always reported the situation to herself, Igarashi would have really been questioned by Machida Yuanko, but now he is very calm, and he has been aware of the real-time updates related to Sword Art Online during the day.

"I've been paying attention, sales, reviews, whatever."

"Oh? Then please tell me, Mr. Yamabuki, what the sales volume of Sword Art Online is."

If Machida Yuanko was a bit pondering, she successfully asked Igarashi to stop. Although Eri Li told herself about online sales, the last data she gave was already a few hours ago.

"Uh, a few thousand? Tens of thousands? It should be alright, right?"

This guy really doesn't pay attention at all! Machida Yuanko gritted his teeth and looked at the phone screen, as if he could see Igarashi from a long distance through the phone.
