Crossover Anime/Manga - Not Everyday Life

Chapter 46 Shiina is not violent

"What happened to you just now? How could you eat so much? Are you alright?"

After Natsuo had completely filled his stomach, Shiina Mahiru sat opposite him and asked with concern.

"I'm fine now, I guess I just need to replenish my energy," Xia Sheng replied, shaking his head as he rubbed his now flat stomach.

He had just eaten more than just rice balls and fried chicken nuggets; Shiina Mahiru had also brought him rice and side dishes.

He ate three more large bowls of rice.

Shiina Mahiru had nothing to eat.

"Need to replenish energy? What's going on?" Shiina Mahiru looked at him in confusion.

"It must have been a reward I received from that place... which is this ability of mine," Xia Sheng said, demonstrating his special ability.

His right hand was enveloped in a shimmering white light, which grew even more intense.

"What's this?" Shiina Mahiru also noticed the change.

"Yes, this ability has become stronger." Xia Sheng nodded.

"You've gotten stronger?"

"You must have read light novels, right? You understand the concept of magic, right?"

"Don't underestimate me, I can still understand this," Shiina Mahiru said reproachfully.

"You can think of this ability of mine as something similar to magic. It improved after last night."

"I see."

"I was so hungry just now, it must be because my body couldn't adapt to the changes in its abilities, and I used up too much energy, so I needed to replenish it."

"Is that so? Are you sure? You really scared me just now."

"That's how it is. I'm sorry to have worried you," Xia Sheng immediately apologized.

"No need to apologize to me, it's good that you're alright." Shiina Mahiru waved her hand and smiled slightly.

Now that Xia Sheng appears to be completely fine, she is relieved.

"But it seems you have nothing to eat..." Xia Sheng looked at the empty bowls and plates on the table, feeling a little embarrassed.

"It's alright, I'll make it later. But you, just in case this happens again, you should prepare some food at home," Shiina Mahiru said casually.

"Yes, that's exactly what I was planning. How about we go to the supermarket together later?" Natsumi asked Shiina Mahiru.

"Let's go to the supermarket together?" Shiina Mahiru was taken aback.

"Yes, thanks to you, otherwise I might have starved to death. Let me repay you. You also need to buy things, right? I'll help you carry them, how about it?" Xia Sheng suggested.

"You're not... up to something, are you?" Shiina Mahiru stared at him suspiciously.

"No way, what kind of wicked ideas could I possibly have? Just like you, didn't you want to repay me when I helped you carry your things? I have the same thought now." Xia Sheng shook his head and explained righteously.

"I see..." Shiina Mahiru fell into thought.

"What's there to hesitate about? We're neighbors and colleagues, what are you worried about?" Xia Sheng immediately interrupted her thoughts.

"Okay, you're right." Shiina Mahiru nodded in agreement.

She thought about it briefly and realized that going out together was really nothing.

"Then it's decided. When are you going out to buy things?"

"This afternoon."

Shiina Mahiru still has a lot to do: wash the dishes, take a shower, eat breakfast... and read a novel.

Xia Sheng's unusual behavior just now made her feel that she should learn more about the fantasy settings in the novel.

I was so incredibly hungry, and after eating so much, my stomach didn't change at all.

Amazing.

Regardless of whether those fictional settings are useful or not, at least they can give her some corresponding understanding.

"Alright, call me when you're going this afternoon, don't go alone by yourself," Xia Sheng emphasized seriously.

"I wouldn't go that far," Shiina Mahiru said, giving him a helpless glare.

She had a feeling that Xia Sheng's purpose was more to be with her.

What's so great about being together?

Without giving it much thought, she instructed, "But you, be careful. If anything seems wrong with your health, be sure to let me know immediately. You can call me; I'll be keeping my phone with me all day."

"Okay, I won't stand on ceremony with you," Xia Sheng replied with a smile.

"This is only for today; please continue to be polite in the future."

"How could this be... I thought our relationship had gotten better." Xia Sheng looked disappointed.

Shiina Mahiru remained unmoved, clearing away her plates as she replied, "Our relationship has improved, but that's not a reason for you to freeload meals all you want."

"I haven't even said anything yet."

"That's what you're thinking." Shiina Mahiru finished clearing her plate and glanced at him.

She had already seen through his intentions.

He had already become completely obsessed with her cooking skills.

Shiina Mahiru didn't mind that, but she had no reason to make him breakfast every day, even if it was just something she could do.

After all, if she could just make breakfast for anyone whenever she wanted, wouldn't she have to make breakfast for everyone?

The so-called reason, or condition, is that Xia Sheng does not yet meet the conditions.

"But weren't you planning to make me breakfast today?" Xia Sheng asked, remembering what had happened.

"I'm just in a good mood today," Shiina Mahiru explained after thinking for a moment.

"Are you in a good mood...?"

When Natsumi went for a morning run with Shiina Mahiru, he did notice that she was in a good mood.

"Can you tell me why?"

"You want to know why you're trying to cheer me up? Are you trying to freeload breakfast?" Shiina Mahiru asked, exposing her lie.

"I have absolutely no such idea," Xia Sheng denied solemnly.

"It's okay to tell you, I was just a little happy last night."

"Last night...did you have a good time fighting slimes?" Xia Sheng looked at her in disbelief and asked.

"...I'm not a violent person!" Shiina Mahiru glared at him irritably and left.

Xia Sheng watched her departing figure, scratching his head, unable to figure out why she was in a good mood.

But it doesn't matter, a good mood is always better than a bad mood.

He got up, stretched, took a shower, and went back to his room to start writing.

We can start preparing for the second volume of "Konosuba".

He was confident in "Konosuba". Even if the first volume was not ideal at the beginning because he was a newcomer, the subsequent development would definitely not be a problem.

That will be the time when sales skyrocket.

He not only wanted to make money, but also to compete fiercely, releasing a new volume every month, so that those novelists who only released a volume every two or three months, or even half a year, would know what a tentacle monster was.

Readers are so eagerly anticipating this, yet they keep delaying it. How can they face their readers?

If it's really about polishing the plot, that's fine, but most people are just lazy and procrastinate, and they're also attracted by the game or something else.

Updating novels is their job, how can they not do their job properly!

Xia Sheng wasn't worried about running out of ideas, since he was just a plagiarist and had plenty of material to draw upon.

He wants to become the world's most famous typewriter.

Xia Sheng didn't eat lunch and kept writing until evening, easily completing one-fifth of the article.

No need to devise a plot, no need to think about character designs, no writer's block, just need to revise the words and sentences, this speed is actually considered slow.

He also chatted with Yui Yuigahama for a while during that time.

Tonight, barring any unforeseen circumstances, it will be the two of them going to that place again.

Yui Yuigahama was somewhat expectant, and Natsuo could sense it from her message.

Speaking of which, Yui Yuigahama is also part of protecting the world, and Natsuo plans to have her join the Service Club as well.

She didn't join any clubs or organizations.

However, he needs to discuss it with Yukino Yukinoshita.

She is the minister.
