Under the leadership of An Yilunye, Mu Fan came to the lobby of Dengeki Library.
"Hello, welcome to Dengeki Bunko. How can you two help me?"
As soon as the two entered the lobby of Dengeki Bunko, the front desk lady in black uniform came over and asked An Yilun and Mu Fan with a smile on her face.
"excuse me."
An Yilun would also smile: "I have made an appointment with editor Kagurazaka Iris. Is she in the company now?"
"please wait for a moment."
The front desk lady turned around, picked up the phone and dialed a number. After asking for a while, she said apologetically to An Yilun and Mu Fan: "I'm sorry, editor Kagurazaka is in a meeting right now. "Her office is on the seventh floor. You can go to the reception room on the seventh floor and wait for her. The meeting will be over in a few minutes."
"Okay, thank you, we'll go there now."
"You're welcome!"
... ..
After An Yilun also thanked him, he led Mu Fan into the elevator and pressed the button to the seventh floor.
"Lun Ye, who is the editor of Kagurazaka you are talking about?" After the elevator door closed, Mu Fan remembered the editor's name that An Yilun had just mentioned and couldn't help but ask.
Hearing Mu Fan's inquiry, An Yilun also asked in surprise: "Mu Fan, is this really your first time breaking into the light novel world? You haven't heard of Kagurazaka Iris's name?"
"Um."
Mu Fan nodded. Speaking of which, when he was in China, he mainly wrote about the two-dimensional genre, but now that he comes to this world, it is indeed his first time to break into the world of light novels.
This is just like the best-selling light novels in this world that he has never heard of. The names of the light novel editors in this world are also names that he has never heard of.
An Yilun also explained: "Kagurazaka Iris, a famous editor of Dengeki Bunko, is responsible for some popular works. For example, she is the author of "Fantasy Demon Swordden", a best-selling novel in the light novel industry."
"Turns out he's the editor in charge of best-selling light novels."
Mu Fan was a little surprised. He didn't expect An Yilun to know such an excellent editor at Dengeki Bunko. However, even though this editor was relatively good, being his editor was enough. But there was one more thing that Mu Fan was worried about.
"Then this editor wouldn't be indifferent to a newcomer's book like me, right?"
Mu Fan said that the newbie was trembling. In his memory, some editors who were responsible for achievements were very cold. Although the editor was very good, if he was considered a newcomer and was not taken seriously, then he would have to do something in the future. A lot of trouble.
"Won't."
An Yilun also shook his head and explained with a smile: "Miss Kagurazaka is a very easy-going editor. As long as she feels that the work can be published, she will be serious and responsible. With Mu Fan's "Accelerated World" The level of excitement will definitely pass the review of Dengeki Bunko.”
"That's good."
Mu Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. A good editor would be worth a thousand dollars. Mu Fan didn't expect so much, he just hoped it wouldn't be too much of a scam.
At this time, the elevator door had opened, and An Yilun took Mu Fan out of the elevator and entered the editor's reception room.
The layout of the editor's reception room is very simple, with a clean and tidy desk and four soft chairs.
Since the Kagurazaka editor had not finished the meeting, Mu Fan and An Yilun simply sat on the chairs aside and waited quietly.
Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps, and Mu Fan raised his head. A tall beauty who looked to be in her twenties, wearing a professional OL uniform, with neat ear-length hair, came over: "Sorry, Mr. Renye, he has been really busy recently because he has been responsible for many popular works, so I have kept you two waiting for a long time.”
"It doesn't matter, we have just come here."
An Yilun also stood up and said with a smile.
"Is this the author of "Accelerated World" that Mr. Lun Ye mentioned on the phone before, Mr. Mu Fan?"
After Kagurazaka Iris said hello, he looked at Mu Fan who was beside An Yilun in slight surprise and asked.
Kagurazaka Iris already knew the popular blogger An Yilun. When An Yilun recommended Mu Fan to her, she received a 30,000-word copy of "Accelerated World" from An Yilun. Manuscript.
In the industry, An Yilun is also very conscientious in recommending light novels and animations, so he has accumulated a lot of popularity. Therefore, in Kagurazaka Iris' opinion, the works that An Yilun can also recommend must have some highlights. .
Next, Kagurazaka Iris only read the first 30,000 words of Accelerated World and felt how extraordinary this book was.
The writing method of the light novel "Accel World" is completely different from other game novels. It is more towards the sci-fi future category, but judging from the writing style and plot twists, it can be called a potential work this year.
So out of anticipation, she also eagerly wanted to see the next plot.
Kagurazaka Iris originally thought that Mu Fan would be able to write a light novel of this level only if he was an older author, but when she saw Mu Fan's slightly childish face next to An Yilun, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Mu Fan looks like he is in the same grade as An Yilun, right
However, several of the authors she was responsible for were best-selling light novels written by high school students. For example, Sei Senjumura of "Fantasy Demon Swordsman" was one of them. After being an editor for so many years, she was only slightly surprised by this. That’s all.
"Well, hello Miss Kagurazaka, just call me Mu Fan. Also, I am planning to participate in this year's Dengeki Bunko Novel Grand Prize." Mu Fan stood up and chuckled.
"Have you brought the rest of the manuscript?"
"Brought it."
Mu Fan opened his backpack, took out the printed manuscript of "Accelerated World" and handed it to Kagurazaka Airi: "It's all here."
Kagurazaka Iris took the manuscript with both hands and placed it on the table. He turned around and took two cans of Coke from the freezer on the side and placed them in front of Mu Fan and An Yirunya.
"Can you two have a Coke?"
"Okay, thank you."
"Okay, please wait a moment. I'll take a look at the plot behind it." Kagurazaka Iris began to sit on the chair on the other side of Mu Fan and An Yilunya and read the plot behind "Accelerated World" carefully. .
An Yilun and Mu Fan, who had come all the way, were also a little tired, so they didn't show any pretense. While Kagurazaka Iris was reviewing the manuscript, they directly opened the tab of the Coke, took a big sip, and felt relieved. Soothed his own thirst.
Seeing Kagurazaka Iris carefully reviewing the manuscript, out of politeness, Mu Fan and An Yilun did not speak. They just sat on the other side and waited quietly for Kagurazaka Iris to complete the review.
Apart from the cold air-conditioned breath, the only sound left in the room was the sound of three people breathing.
On the other side, Kagurazaka Iris read the subsequent plot of "Accelerated World", and he admired the excellence of this light novel more and more. Although this novel was slightly lacking at the beginning because the protagonist was a fat man, this kind of beginning is expected to be good for many People have an unexpected effect of persuading people to retreat.
But then, the plot proceeds step by step, never sloppily, and is usually relaxed and cheerful. When it comes to the critical moment, there will be no distractions. The battles are also very passionate and vivid. The most important thing is that everyone's character is very unique. .
In light novels, a series of likeable characters appear in some works, which are the so-called "buying", "selling", and "crash" that cause controversy.
Therefore, in a lightly modified animation, some people will post comments such as "This is my wife!" and "Your wife is in my arms!", "I have seen your wife's book!" and "Your wife is awesome!" .
In the light novel world, the favorite "ranking of two-dimensional male protagonists and female protagonists" appears every year.
Of course, these are all based on the character creation in a work. In a light novel, you can have a slightly lacking plot, or you can have an unscientific development, but the characters in the work must be distinct and likeable.
In a light novel, if the characters you portray are annoying to readers, then how can it be considered successful
"Accel World" does a great job in this regard: the steady and generous Kuroyukihime, the lively and lovely Chihiro, and Haruyuki who gradually becomes strong from being cowardly, all prove the success of this novel in character creation.
Although the setting seems a bit difficult, to describe it simply, it is an inspirational story about a cowardly knight who becomes stronger little by little in order to protect his beloved princess!
Although it is simple, it is a light novel that is interesting.
Seeing this, Kagurazaka Iris couldn't help but look at Mu Fan with strange eyes. If Mu Fan wasn't in front of her now, she would really be a little suspicious.
The author of this novel, Mu Fan, is he... really only seventeen years old
