While Okumura was startled, feeling an intense feeling that tightly grabbed his heart, Nifuji looked at Mayuri, Eli, and Ririsa, who were silent, hesitating to say anything, before he said, "I am sorry, but there is none. It is an all-age ROM."
He had been working as a salesperson previously, so facing this type of situation was nothing new for him.
Still, how could he be so sure that there weren't any naughty photos there?
It was because Ririsa was still a high school student, so of course, it was definitely not okay for one to prepare a naughty photo!
If she did, Nifuji was sure that she would be kicked out of the school, including Okumura, too.
Mayuri, who was their teacher, would also be affected!
Which was why it was better that there was no 18 content at all!
"Ah, is that so?" The custor man hesitated, but he decided to return it as it wasn't worth it to pay 2,000 yen for an all-age content, but—
"But even so, I believe that you won't regret buying this ROM, as we have collected many incredible photos of Liliel that you won't be able to find anywhere, you know? If you don't buy it here, then you won't find it anywhere else, or rather, this will be the first ROM created in a limited edition, and if you don't buy it here, you can't buy it again."
"R-Really?"
"Yes."
As Nifuji talked for a while, the male custor looked at the ROM for a while before he said, "I will get one."
"Thank you very much." Nifuji thanked the man, then looked at Ririsa and Okumura and gave them a wink.
"Thank you very much!" 2x
The two quickly thanked the man and helped with the paynt before the two of them looked at Nifuji in awe.
Ririsa was obvious, as it was her first ti seeing an adult who could do that, but Okumura was grateful, as he knew that he was nervous and scared when he heard that man's question, so when Nifuji handled the situation, it gave him relief.
"Thank you, Nifuji-san!"
"T-Thank you very much!"
"It's fine." Nifuji didn't really care about a small help, as he paid practically nothing. "But, next ti, you should put a cover, or a sample of a photo, so the custor will be attracted."
"Y-Yes!" Okumura nodded. "I-I will make a note!"
Still, Ririsa asked another strange question, "N-Nifuji-san..."
"Yes?"
"Is... is it okay for not to have a naughty photo?"
"...." Nifuji, Okumura, Mayuri, and Eli.
Nifuji was speechless, but in the end, he took a deep breath, then asked, "Before I give you an answer, can you give a reason why you want to do this?"
"A-A reason, is it?"
"Yes." Nifuji nodded. "Is it for money, or sothing else?"
The world had changed, and everyone knew the value of money, as one couldn't live without it.
The horror without it was real, but even so, if one chased after it relentlessly, they would lose sothing, as they had to sacrifice sothing, yet Nifuji wouldn't judge them, as their experience was different from his.
Those who were desperate for money had an experience that made them that way.
Others might see their efforts as ugly, but it was because they had an experience of not having anything.
If one didn't have the feeling of being hungry and spent their day drinking tap water to fill their belly, then it was better not to say anything.
Still, so people might not care about that and force their own perspective on others.
However, Nifuji wasn't like that, and because of that, he asked Ririsa that question.
Then, as expected—
"It's love!"
"Love?"
Instead of a realistic ambition, Ririsa's answer was still full of a dream, like a girl of her age. "Yes, I love Liliel, and because of that, I want to create the best Liliel ROM!"
"I see." Nifuji nodded. "Then, you want to spread that love to the world, right?"
"YES!"
"Then, you'd better not make any naughty photos."
"Really?"
While Ririsa sighed in relief inwardly, she looked at Nifuji curiously and asked, "Can I ask the reason, Nifuji-san?"
Still, Okumura also sighed in relief when he heard Nifuji's answer, but he also felt curious and waited for Nifuji's answer.
"To spread your love of Liliel, you need a bigger platform, and to make naughty photos is simply suicide for that."
"....." Ririsa and Okumura.
"First, it is hard to sell."
"Hard to sell?"
"Yes, to sell the 18 content, you need to be in the Restricted Sales Area. Even in the public, there are so places like "Adult Zones," right? If you're going to make adult content, then you have to be there, and these areas are less visible to the general public. You lose the "walk-by" traffic of normal ani fans."
"I see!" 2x
Okumura and Ririsa were surprised.
"Second, paynt processor bans."
"Paynt processor bans?"
"It's your first ti, so it doesn't matter, and you still use cash, but if you go further, it will be difficult with the 18 content since recently, credit card companies (Visa/Mastercard) and platforms like Gumroad/DLsite have cracked down on real-person adult content. Selling 18 ROMs is becoming harder legally and logistically."
Choosing age-appropriate content was the best way to survive in the creator world, as 18 content had beco more difficult.
"Lastly, if a cosplayer wants to beco a "Professional" (like getting hired by an official ani studio to be the Official Liliel), having a history of 18 content usually disqualifies them."
Yup, this was the most important point.
"Big companies rarely hire cosplayers with an adult film history because it damages the brand image of their ani characters."
Nifuji looked at Ririsa and said, "So, if you want to spread your love wider, you should aim to sell All-Ages (SFW) ROMs. That way, your love will be spread to the world."
"I SEE!"
Ririsa's eyes were full of excitent. "THANK YOU, NIFUJI-SAN!"
"Don't worry." Nifuji shook his head and said, "Now, your goal is to sell all of your ROM, and you don't prepare the cover, you should try another thod, or do you want to bring all of them back ho?"
"No!" Ririsa looked at Nifuji with a hint of plea. "Can you tell how, Nifuji-san?"
"Go and change into your cosplay costu. Show your love through action to everyone in this place. Can you do that?"
Facing Nifuji's eyes, Ririsa felt like she was a prophet who was about to spread the correct belief to everyone, and because of that, "YES!"
"Go, I will be waiting here."
Nifuji glanced at Eli and Mayuri, who nodded.
"Let's go, Ririsa."
"We'll help you."
"Thank you, Sensei, Eli-san!"
As the three left, Nifuji and Okumura were all alone, but when his eyes t Okumura, Okumura quickly lowered his head, which made Nifuji sigh and ask, "What's wrong? Did I do sothing to you, Okumura-kun?"
"I..." Okumura hesitated, then closed his eyes and said, "M-My mother left my family and during my childhood for a man like you."
"..." Nifuji.
Yup, Nifuji felt that it was understandable why Okumura appeared not to be good with him.
