Chapter 68 Sign-in, Different
Early morning in the villa, inside the room.
An early start to the day still begins with signing in.
"System, sign me in."
Hoshino Makoto threw back the covers and sat up on the bed.
Her strikingly pale face held a look of anticipation.
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in. The first volume of "The Burial of Frilian" comic book has been added.]
The system voice sounded in Hoshino Makoto's mind.
The next moment, in front of Hoshino Makoto.
Then a hardcover comic book appeared.
Hoshino Makoto: [・_・?]
A great deal of confusion appeared on Hoshino Makoto's small face.
No, it's not the system. You checked in today, right?
Shouldn't you sign in to show off your attractive appearance?
Then it gave me a special charm similar to bright eyes and white teeth.
Why is today's sign-in different?
"The Burial of Frilian".
Hoshino Makoto looked at the comic he had obtained from the system's daily check-in on the bed in front of him.
It's the deluxe edition, not the regular edition.
He hadn't read this comic book in his previous life.
But I've seen anime adapted from manga.
Furthermore, the anime adaptation of this manga was incredibly popular.
It is excellent in both plot and character portrayal.
It mainly tells the story of what happens after the hero team defeats the Demon King.
After the hero team defeated the Demon King, their adventure to save the world came to an end.
As time went by, the team members passed away one after another.
But apart from the elven mage Frilian, who has lived for over a thousand years.
As her teammates pass away one after another, Frillie embarks on her journey anew.
But if you were to ask Hoshino Shinichi what use this manga is to him now...
Hoshino Makoto couldn't think of any use for it for the time being.
He even felt that he was not as good as Hao Chi, who had signed in yesterday.
However, since it's already been signed in, there's nothing that can be changed.
Hoshino Makoto quickly accepted this fact.
But he soon discovered another problem.
The system only allowed him to sign in with one comic book.
"How many volumes of the 'Funeral of Frillian' manga were there in total?"
Hoshino scratched his head, thinking carefully.
In the end, I decided to ask the system.
"System, do you know how many volumes this comic book has in total?"
[Host, this comic book has a total of twenty volumes.]
The system quickly provided an answer.
"Twenty books. If I want to sign in all of them, it will take another nineteen days."
Hoshino Makoto picked up the hardcover edition of the manga "The Burial of Frilian" in front of him.
He discovered that this hardcover comic book was actually a counterfeit product.
That is, it has no publisher, no ISBN, and no price.
Hoshino Shin flipped through the manga again.
It contains all color pages, about two hundred pages in total.
Hoshino Makoto looked at the manga "The Burial of Frilian" in his hand.
This comic is undeniably a very good comic.
But it's of no use to him now.
In this world, let's not even talk about whether this comic will be popular.
Even if he wanted to publish it, he would have to revise some parts of the comic first.
For example, the genders of elves and heroes.
However, if it's properly modified, it might actually be welcomed by the market.
After all, The Burial of Frilian has a very good storyline and character design.
If I carefully revise this comic myself, and then choose a company to publish it.
Perhaps it will actually be popular with readers and bring in a considerable reward.
After I graduate from university and become a civil servant.
If someone tries to bribe him with money, he can firmly say no to such temptations.
"I remember Auntie seems to own a comic book company, maybe we could give it a try."
"But it needs to be revised before it can be published."
"However... I seem to have this ability."
Thinking of this, Hoshino silently recited it in his heart.
System, open the panel.
[Host: Hoshino Makoto]
[Stamina: 3]
【Intelligence: 6】
【Charm: 9】
[Skills: Advanced (Cooking), Intermediate (Learning), Beginner (Acting, Cleaning)]
[Mood value: 3000]
[Evil Value: Three Points]
【Special Charm: Fair Skin and Jade-like Bones (Handsome Tokyo boy, you were born to attract attention; wherever you stand, that's the center stage)】
[Special charm: Bright eyes and white teeth (You have a beautiful smile, and people will like you because of it, so young man, please don't smile too easily)]
Hoshino looked at the three thousand emotion points in front of him.
The next moment, he opened the system store.
[Updated monthly:]
Basic Skill - Eating (100 Emotion Points), Basic Skill - Drawing (100 Emotion Points)
Intermediate Skill - Neptune (1000 Emotion Points), Intermediate Skill - Cleaning (1000 Emotion Points)
Advanced Skill - Painting (10000 Emotion Points)
Hoshino Makoto's gaze fell on the basic skill of drawing.
Then I looked at the advanced skill, painting.
A basic skill level is equivalent to only five years of proficiency.
Advanced skills are equivalent to twenty years of proficiency.
To properly revise the comic, one must destroy Frilian's life.
Hoshino Makoto felt that basic drawing skills were far from sufficient.
It should be at least an intermediate level of drawing skill.
Of course, advanced drawing skills are the best choice.
Hoshino looked at his three thousand emotion points.
But clearly he can't afford it now.
"Let's save up these emotional points first."
"I'll wait until I have 10,000 emotion points before buying the advanced painting skill."
Hoshino Makoto looked at the manga book in his hand.
He needs to put the comic book away first.
. . . . . .
Meanwhile, in the living room on the first floor.
Shimizu Yuzuki sat at the dining table.
She was wearing a casual short-sleeved shirt and black hot pants today, revealing her two fair thighs.
"Auntie, that's it, Mai has already agreed."
Across from Shimizu Yuzuki, Shimizu Setsukatsuki, wearing a light-colored coat, was sitting.
Just now, Shimizu Yuzuki told Shimizu Setsukatsuki about what happened to Kitagawa Mai last night.
"Don't worry, Auntie, whether it's in terms of character or academic performance..."
"Mai is definitely qualified to be Ai's tutor."
Shimizu Yuzuki slightly puffed out her chest, a confident smile playing on her lips.
She clearly had great faith in Kitagawa Mai's character and academic achievements.
"Thank you for your help, Yuzuki."
Shimizu Setsukatsu nodded, a smile playing on her lips.
"However, working two days on and three days off, isn't four hours a bit too little?"
"How about we give Xiao Ai two more hours of extra lessons tonight?"
Shimizu Setsukatsu thought of Shimizu Ai's terrible grades.
Suddenly I realized that four hours of tutoring was still a bit too little.
"Ahem, Auntie, I think four hours of supplementary treatment is enough."
"If we continue with extra lessons in the evening, Xiao Ai's interest in learning might decrease."
Shimizu Yuzuki coughed lightly twice, then immediately spoke.
. . . . . .
(The spring break storyline will speed up, and then the school storyline will begin.)
