"What's going on with the detailed characterization of this character? Is this really a book? ╭(°A°`)╮"
"This is the first time I've seen such clear hair, body hair, and body hair in a book...shock (laughs)."
"The picture is rich and full, the expressions are vivid and natural, and the quality is so high!"
"It's incredible...why does this book have its own sound effects!?"
"Friendly reminder: Please watch Eromanga's works in a safe environment wwww~~!!"
"Damn it! As someone who only went to Comiket on the third day, I can tell you that egoistic lily's books were all sold out within an hour of opening! So I didn't even grab a copy! You happy bastards!"
"Please entrust the bookstore to sell it on consignment as soon as possible. Even if there is no special discount, it doesn't matter. Eromanga-sensei's book has already sold for 5,000 yen on eBay @egoistic lily @ Kashiwagi Eiri."

…
Inside a hotel in Omiya City, Saitama Prefecture.
A blue neon light flickered on the wall of the dim room, occasionally switching to purple or pink, illuminating the room's environment hazy.
The large double bed, sofa, coffee table, TV, everything is covered with an ambiguous filter.
Sitting alone on the sofa, Kato Yusuke casually flipped through the comments about his works on SNS, his eyes looking a little absent-minded.
Bang, bang.
There was a clear sound of water coming from the direction of the bathroom, tickling my ears gently.
Perhaps the unfamiliar environment brought a different feeling, making the sounds that had been heard many times seem to be given a different flavor.
So I put down my phone again and started checking my bank account.
There is a newly remitted amount of money there: 4741200 yen.
Comi's total income this summer is 7.2 million. After deducting about 630,000 in taxes, 20% of the share, 300,000 in arrears, and the 210,000 salary paid to the trio, the final result is the above
This number.
Judging from the average annual salary of full-time employees in Tokyo of 5 million yen, Kato Yusuke is currently moving towards a high-income group with an annual income of 10 million yen.
And this is just the beginning.
When he thought about the already determined share of bookstore sales that would follow, even as calm as he was, he couldn't help but feel a little high-spirited at this moment.
Then start looking to the future.
Maybe he should take Sayu to some places that are more suitable for girls his age... While he was thinking about these things, the intermittent sound of water unknowingly turned into the buzzing of a hair dryer.
After a while, even the sound of the hair dryer stopped. The bathroom door opened with a click, and Sayu in a white bathrobe walked out.
"Huh - it's so refreshing." The slightly damp hair was stuck to her neck, and the girl just turned her head to one side and wiped it leisurely with a towel.
My face is slightly rosy after bathing.
Through the open neckline of the bathrobe, you can clearly see your red skin and three-dimensional collarbones.
The length of the bathrobe only reaches above the knees. Every time the girl takes a step forward, she can see her enchanting thighs through the gaps in the swaying and soft bathrobe.
Her skin, as white as lacquerware, was dyed cherry pink.
The other party just walked over and sat down next to Kato Yusuke.
"You can go take a shower, Yusuke."
The sweet scent of shampoo, conditioner and shower gel, which was different from usual, came to him in waves, irritating the nasal cavity subtly, making someone sniffle unconsciously.
The senses seemed to be magnified in an instant, and Yusuke Kato could even feel the moisture extending from the other party's body, as fresh and pleasant as the grass after the rain.
His eyes lingered gently on the pair of slender thighs for a few seconds, then he cleared his throat and said: "I know, I'll go right away. If you're sleepy, just go to sleep first, and we'll take the bus back to the village tomorrow morning."
After saying that, he was about to get up and walk to the bathroom, but -
"Huh? Is this all right?"
Slender fingers gently pulled the corner of his clothes.
The girl hummed and asked: "When it comes to a girl who comes to a love hotel with a boy for the first time, is it enough to just look at...?"
Crunch...
The sofa made a scraping sound.
Putting her legs on it, Sayu tilted her head and looked at him, with one cheek pressed against the smooth knee. Her eyes were slightly narrowed, and her thin lips traced the arc of the crescent moon, not caring at all about the words that ran into her mouth.
hair.
As a sane person, Kato Yusuke felt a little annoyed when faced with such provocative behavior.
Then he lowered his head and leaned down, placing one hand on the back of the sofa and lifting the other person's chin with the other hand to make him look into his eyes.
A faint breath was about to be exhaled in the slightly opened sandalwood mouth.
He plucked a strand of slightly wet hair from the corner of the girl's mouth and said in a deep voice: "Stop messing around and go to bed early. There are still things to do tomorrow."
Without giving the other party a chance to react, after he finished speaking, he directly picked up Sayu in a princess hug and walked straight to the bed.
Ignoring the astonishing softness and warmth in her knees and hips, Kato Yusuke gently laid the girl on the bed and turned around, walking towards the bathroom with windy footsteps.
Only a series of endless laughter was left behind.
◇
Buzz, buzz, buzz, rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble.
The rainbow-colored jacuzzi made a silly muffled sound and shook the water surface continuously. It made the body feel comfortable but also made me feel a little embarrassed.
The floor and chairs were wet, and the air was filled with a strong aroma of shampoo and shower gel, which was exactly the same as what Sayu smelled on her body.
So hard not to imagine the beautiful scene of the other person taking a bath here.
This element of seeing, hearing, and feeling that is completely different from usual constantly reminds Kato Yusuke that this is not an environment he is familiar with.
The strange feeling derived from this makes people become sensitive unconsciously.
Snap——
Taking a handful of water and slapping it on his face, Yusuke Kato tried to calm down his brain.
The next second.
Gorgeous fireworks appeared in front of my eyes, followed by the blue and white striped yukata and two faces illuminated by the fireworks.
"Good evening, Kato-san."
The polite and distant voice still vaguely echoed in my ears, and the smile that made people feel a little forced always stayed stubbornly in my mind and couldn't go away.
Thinking of the scene where the three met at that time, even a person like Kato Yusuke couldn't help but feel briefly absent-minded.
Snap——!
He patted his face with a handful of water again and rubbed it roughly, as if to drive these thoughts away from his mind.
Kato Yusuke unconsciously whispered: "It's so bad...me."
As the words settled, the bathroom suddenly fell into silence, leaving only the stupid buzzing sound that still proved the flow of time.
Ever since Hui left during the grand fireworks show, he had been wanting to say hello on Line, but in the end he didn't know what to say.
Even if he wanted to speak clearly, he became unable to speak again when he thought that the other party had never said anything clearly to him in a formal occasion.
On the way home, although Sayu behaved as usual, and even smiled and praised Megumi for being beautiful and cute, he never asked about their relationship.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled it.
After clearly realizing that he should draw clear boundaries to avoid causing more harm, Kato Yusuke's eyes gradually became firm.
Then he let himself sink into the hot water with a plop and began to continue washing his body.
…
After I dried my hair and walked out of the bathroom, the room that had been lit before had darkened. Only a bedside lamp was dimly emitting light, seeming to guide the direction.
As for Sayu, who was very active before taking a bath, he had already fallen into a deep sleep. He was still mumbling things like "Udon noodles", "Butter potatoes", "Hamburger vending machine", etc. while facing this side. Eat in the express service area.
Special food.
She looked so charming and cute, and Yusuke Kato couldn't help but smile softly, then he walked to the bed quietly, lifted up a corner of the quilt and got in.
Turning off the bedside lamp with a click, the room was completely plunged into darkness.
It seems to be attracted by the temperature, or disturbed by the silence.
Accompanied by a rustling sound.
There was a soft body in his arms.
With a soft moonlight shining through the gap in the curtains, the girl with a reassuring smile on her lips fell asleep on his arm, like a child who was tired from playing.
With that familiar weight and listening to that long breath, Kato Yusuke also slowly fell into sleep.
The two heads nestled tightly together, holding hands and strolling leisurely on the field path in the memory in the world on the other side of the dream.
