How a Hero Lives as a Writer

8 – The Hero Who Writes Novels

Alexander gnashed his teeth as he remembered the departed warrior.

‘Isn’t it entertainment?’

If not for entertainment, what purpose did you use it for?

Are you thinking of saving the world with a novel?

The man sneered and contacted the organization.

Because it was necessary to keep an eye on the hero who called himself Bright.

Anyway, the nightmare may be repeated again with a novel written by a warrior.

I had to stop that.

‘Hmm, at any rate, publishing will have to go through my hands.’

Maybe it really is God’s will for a hero to act as a writer in this world.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t publish junk that won’t sell.

No one can say anything even if a little bit of selfishness goes into it.

The man took out the manuscript, boasting that it was for the sake of the world.

I skimmed through the manuscript quickly before talking to the hero, but there were no problematic words or sentences.

But if you read it closely, you’ll find a problem somewhere.

If there was a problem part, it was just a matter of rejecting it.

Because that was the authority of the company working as the editor-in-chief.

If it is God’s will for the hero to write novels, then God must have known that Intrus was blocking his path.

So this was a problem that could be interpreted as a trial by the gods.

‘If it’s not like that, I’ll be punished.’

If they receive divine punishment, it is proof that the gods are still watching over them.

If you don’t receive divine punishment, God has recognized the significance of Intrus’ existence.

The man imitated the hero’s logic.

‘It won’t be that easy.’

Even if there are restrictions on subject matter, there are plenty of people who write interesting novels.

Among such people, only a handful of people are called ‘writers’ who have published books.

It is not an industry that a warrior who knows nothing about this world can easily overcome.

I’ll teach you the reality.

The man started reading a novel written by the hero with a fishy smile.

I soon realized why the subject of the hero’s nonsense was a ‘romance novel’.

‘A man is a love story….’

Was the reason you suddenly started talking nonsense was an excuse for the genre of the novel you wrote?

It is said that it was to show the reaction in the shape of the mouth, but sometimes the sincerity is mixed with the story that flowed out randomly.

If you think about it that way, he might be considering the ‘Lady of the Autumn Field’ as his rival.

To have a rivalry with the ‘Autumn Field Lady’, who is currently the most popular in Oklia….

The man shook his head and began to read the novel written by the hero.

‘Magic House, Swordsmanship House, Academia….’

There are families that produce many geniuses who show natural talent for magic and swordsmanship.

However, the titles of masters of magic and swordsmanship were unfamiliar.

However, the name was quite intuitive, so I didn’t feel too pressured to read it.

But the concept of academy was a bit unfamiliar to me.

‘It feels like a mixture of the Empire’s Higher Mathematical Institute and the Military Academy.’

Students can choose the classes they want to take, just like the high school math institutes of the empire.

However, like soldiers at military academies, they also polish their combat skills.

The man laughed.

Because novels with a lot of proper nouns or settings from the beginning were boring.

Moreover, the protagonists of the novel are immature beings in their mid-teens.

This can’t be fun.

Sarak.

[If it’s the family’s decision, I’ll follow it. So I am betrothed to you, Juliet.]

[Hey! Make no mistake, Romeo. Because I’m getting engaged!]

[What? Are you done talking now?]

[Are you intimidating the woman now?]

A popular romance novel in Aucklia begins with the first meeting between a man and a woman.

And for some reason, they became attracted to each other, missing each other and drawing pitiful images in most cases.

A work that charmingly depicts the intensity of emotions that comes from the slight discrepancy is gaining popularity.

However, ‘Oh My Lady’ written by a warrior was different.

The two appeared as impatient rivals who couldn’t eat each other from the beginning.

Even the affection towards each other is not described.

Even so, the man somehow fell into the illusion that the two were like lovers fighting each other for love.

‘But this….’

The man shook his head and decided to point out the problem with the hero’s novel.

First of all, the part that bothered me the most was the monotonous writing style.

The novel written by the hero was overly simplistic in descriptions of scenes and sentences.

Current novels are focusing on how to convey emotions well by decorating sentences even with the same scene.

However, in the novel of the hero, all of those parts were written in a flash.

It was passed over in a general way with the feeling of simply describing the situation.

However, the flow of the story was fast because it was described in such a monotonous way.

I feel tired when I read a novel that spends too much time on a single scene.

But I didn’t feel that fatigue in this novel.

There is no sense of incongruity between the two leads, even if it feels somewhat childish, considering their age.

That meant that this novel was written with this intention from the beginning.

‘This is okay too….’

The man who read as if skimming the contents now began to read as if chewing on each word.

For some reason, I thought it would be a waste to read it speed-reading.

Sarak.

Siraksarak.

Siraksarak.

“Ah.”

When I came to my senses, it was the last page.

‘This is a revolution… !’

In the novel written by the hero, the part that the man was concerned about did not appear at all.

About a month has passed since the hero was summoned to this world.

This means that he wrote this much work in just one month.

‘No, it’s highly likely that it was written in the original world.’

Even so, there were traces of trying to understand the culture of this world to some extent.

… Did God really invite him into this world as a writer?

The man looked at the novel written by the hero with complicated eyes.

‘I have to look at other people’s reactions, but….’

This is sold unconditionally.

At first, I tried to find fault with it, but I couldn’t find fault with a work of this caliber.

Because it was too much fun to reject as a reaction against the hero.

“Emma, read this novel. And since we need to set a budget for how much the book should be distributed, show it to others.”

“Yes, editor-in-chief.”

The woman called Emma walked a little faster to her private room.

Judging from the slightly excited expression the man showed, it seemed that this manuscript was on the verge of becoming a jackpot.

‘When was the last time the editor-in-chief had that kind of reaction?’

I didn’t get that kind of reaction when I published Aucklia’s current best-selling novel.

Emma knew that this was work, but she was strangely excited.

The reason she works here is because she can see her novels before they are published.

‘Oh My Lady….’

She prepared tea and refreshments to drink while reading as usual.

She then sat down and started reading the novel.

‘A master of magic, a master of swordsmanship, an academy?’

After a while, he tilted his head at the same part as Alexander.

However, there was an easy-to-understand explanation, so it wasn’t to the extent that it bothered me to read it.

Because the story starring Romeo and Juliet attracted more attention than the setting in the first place.

She savored her novel while reading it, forgetting about the tea she had set out to drink.

“Ah.”

And then, looking at the end of the novel, which ended at the perfect moment, he let out an exclamation of regret.

‘The next volume is still there, right?’

Since it is Volume 1, the main content was the explanation of the background of the two people.

Nevertheless, it boasted absurd suction power.

If I had to mention something particularly surprising, it would be the unique charm that comes from the relationship between the two.

While Volume 1 is in progress, the two only show their constant quarrel.

Nevertheless, it makes the reader fall into the illusion that the two are in love with each other.

Sometimes the characters around Romeo and Juliet misunderstand the relationship between the two, and there is a description of squealing and shrieking.

While reading her book, Emma had the illusion that she herself became such a peripheral figure.

Even though we don’t date and only quarrel, it was sweeter and fresher than any love novel I’ve ever read.

I thought that the writing style felt too light, but considering the age of the two, there would be no description more suitable than this.

The person who wrote this novel is a genius.

He is the owner of a talent that came down from the sky.

And this novel sells.

This is not a novel that will end as popular in Aucklia.

It is a miracle product that will hit the entire continent!

Emma was convinced of that.

She thought she would like to peruse it again, but it’s work time now.

Emma put her regrets behind and organized her manuscript.

As she was doing so, the cold tea caught her eye.

Emma got up from her seat after sipping her cold tea.

Then, as Alexander had done, she handed over the manuscript of ‘Oh My Lady’ to another employee.

Of course, the reaction of those who read the novel written by the hero was the same.

ㅡ This is on sale!

It is also sold on a continental basis.

So there were a lot of things to prepare.

First of all, you need to prepare how to sign a contract with the writer who wrote this novel.

Since the two main characters are from aristocratic families, the writer must be a being with a title of nobility.

So I couldn’t make even the slightest mistake.

After signing a contract with the author, you should also prepare hardcover books for general sale and nobles.

To do so, I had to prepare woodblocks for mass printing, and I had to sign a contract with a scribe with beautiful handwriting for a hardcover book.

Cumbersome and difficult work continued, but the faces of the employees showed a sense of tragedy close to a sense of duty, not fatigue.

One way or another, everyone gathered because they liked books.

She wants to convey the emotions she felt to others.

In the midst of such passion, he forgot his fatigue.

They voluntarily worked overtime for the first time in a really long time.

Even so, no one complained.

To them, ‘Oh My Lady’ was a revolution.
