Chapter 164: Kimura Kazuko
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
As for this incident, it didn’t waver Kimura Kazuki’s heart.
His emotions weren’t affected by the comnts on the internet that scolded him or the public opinion that praised him.
Instead, he thought of Akino’s problem. He laid his eyes on Chiba Shiori and asked, “Would there be any way to get a sale of 500,000 yen on Steam for a ga with a quality slightly higher than a standard one?”
He had no idea of the quality of Akino’s ga so far, so he could only discuss it based on a ga with standard quality.
Chiba Shiori sensed the reiki going into her eyes from Kimura Kazuki’s fingers. Every ti Kimura Kazuki applied a Vision Spell on her, the clear and bright feeling from both of her eyes was rather addictive. Upon hearing the question, Chiba Shiori was stunned for a while. But she took it seriously and answered after taking so ti to clear up her mind, “As long as the quality of the ga isn’t bad, a sales of 500,000 yen can be achieved as ti passes.”
After all, the players all around the world could purchase the ga on Steam.
And there were billions of players all over the world. Gas have beco a necessary entertainnt for humans nowadays.
“How about within a short ti?”
“As for a short ti...” Chiba Shiori hesitated for a mont before speaking, “I don’t understand gas well. But if one wants to increase the sales of the ga, there are only two thods, high ga quality, and publicity.”
These two thods would have suited any field. Take light novels as an example, as long as it is interesting, and it has enough publicity, it would be too easy for a light novel to beco famous.
Just like the novel ‘Loading File of Tokyo,’ which she wrote together with Yuriko. Although they received positive feedback in the early stages, the popularity remained
stagnant all along. Only when Akino promoted it on Twitter did it go viral. Nowadays, ‘Loading File of Tokyo’ had beco the most sought after and discussed novel. And this was the reason why Chiba Shiori was so grateful when she t Akino previously.
Akino’s Twitter account has millions of followers, most, if not all, are active users. In addition to that, she had never endorsed anything so the followers acknowledged her. Many of them read ‘Loading File of Tokyo’ and would promote it through word of mouth if they find it really good. The spread of its fa was astonishing. Thus, swarms of publishers contacted her in the past two days. And of course, her editor had been chatting with her online, aiming to publish ‘Loading File of Tokyo.’ So ani studios even contacted her personally, planning to animate her novel. But these animated companies were not well-known, and so also had dark histories. So Chiba Shiori hung up the phone without giving a reply. She believed that the climax of this novel was located between the end of Volu Three and the beginning of Volu Four. Due to her typing speed, she had already co to the middle part of Volu Three. Within a few days, she would finish the ending of Volu Three.
Upon reaching its climax, its popularity would experience another boom if everything goes well. That’s the best ti to filter out the publishers and ani studios.
Thinking deeply while looking at Kimura Kazuki, sothing ca up to Chiba Shiori’s mind suddenly. She asked, “Don’t tell that... the reason why you are concerned about this is because of the specter’s wish?”
“Yes...” Kimura Kazuki was shocked. “You knew this as well.”
He should not have behaved that obvious.
Chiba Shiori chuckled, “We are considered close, right? You don’t care about ACG usually. But now you are suddenly asking about gas, so I guess it would be related to that. And I could tell it was probably about Akino.”
Last ti in District B, Chiba Shiori saw Akino and the others. She gasped in surprise when she realized that they were quadruplets. Pretty quadruplets like them were too rare. At that mont, she felt threatened in her heart, so she observed them carefully.
She realized that Kimura Kazuki didn’t have intimate feelings with the Furuhashi sisters, so she let out a sigh of relief. Furuhashi Akino was the one coding for the ga, so she knew it through their chats.
It was apparent since Kimura Kazuki asked about this so suddenly.
“Yeah... It is about Akino. Their mother is with ,” Kimura Kazuki told her about Furuhashi Sakurakyu’s obsession.
Upon hearing, Chiba Shiori could not help laughing. She gazed at the Sun and Moon Sword in Kimura Kazuki’s hand, guessing that Furuhashi Sakurakyu was inside, “No wonder that you would take part in the Kendo competition, so this was the case.” As for speaking, she paused before suggesting,” If you don’t know beans about gas, you can’t provide any assistance to improve the quality of the ga. So I think you can work on publicity.”
Now Kimura Kazuki was famous on the internet. Before this, he was only popular among Kendo fans. But the recent public opinion online, not only Japanese, any netizen would have heard about the Sakura Kyu High School incident. After all, it was about education and bullying in school. Netizens worldwide would be concerned about this issue, especially parents.
After the news was left to fernt for a few days, all of the news of Kimura Kazuki beca positive. Moreover, public opinion on him was increasingly positive. He was even given titles such as ‘Big Brother’ and ‘Club President.’
But as the students in Sakura Kyu called Kimura Kazuki as Head of Departnt Kimura collectively, basically everyone would address him as Head of Departnt Kimura. It was as if he was ritualistically given this title online.
Chiba Shiori spent two days to understand the incidents on the internet thoroughly. After the public opinion flipped, she noticed that among the illustrator groups, an illustrator had feminized Kimura Kazuki. In the picture, the girl had a pair of ponytails, wearing a Sakura Kyu High School uniform with a Disciplinary Committee mber armband around a shoulder, and a tachi strapped around her waist. Her skirt was slightly lifted by a light breeze, exposing her blue and white panty.
That illustrator claid that he was inspired by the poster designed by Kimura Kazuki’s Fan Club, where the Kimura Kazuki in the female version was known as Kimura Kazuko. Once this picture was published, it gained a lot of positive feedback and caused Kimura Kazuki’s popularity to scale to new heights.
Of course, Chiba Shiori didn’t tell Kimura Kazuki about this. She worried that if he knew this news, he would grab a sword and kill the illustrator. Based on her understanding of Kimura Kazuki’s strength, he could do it without a hitch. Of course, it was possible for him to not realize this at all. After all, in Chiba Shiori’s eyes, Kimura Kazuki was considered an open-minded person.
But what Kimura Kazuki didn’t realize was, sneaky Natsui was considering to set up another Kimura Kazuki’s Fan Club division on the internet, with the school as their foundation.
So from Chiba Shiori’s point of view, Kimura Kazuki could draw support from the public. He could make a Twitter account and gain followers. By the ti Akino’s ga is released, he could endorse it for her.
Kimura Kazuki pondered over the Twitter suggestion before nodding his head slowly, “You are right, I should do that.”
But Kimura Kazuki did not intend to do it himself. Instead, he planned to discuss it with Yagyu Kenichiro later.
