Anime: I Want Harem-Chapter 58

Kitahara Kosuke didn't feel the slightest bit of fear because of the senior's status as a popular light novelist.

What he held in his hands was a massive stream of information from more than a decade in the future.

What kind of things would otaku like to watch in these ten-plus years, what changes would occur in their tastes, and what types of novels, anime, and manga would become popular in the market...

Things like mother-complex protagonists, rebirth and revenge stories, overpowered protagonists in other worlds...

He knew it all, understood it perfectly.

Kitahara Kosuke, as a transmigrator, was in a sense something far more terrifying than nuclear weapons.

This wasn't an exaggeration at all.

It was extremely unfair to the senior, as she was practically fighting against the progress of another world over a span of more than a decade.

Her enemy was cheating.

And then...

"Using this foresight to bully Senpai is really the best."

Kitahara Kosuke thought happily, without a trace of shame in his heart.

If he could defeat her in her most proud field, it would be much more stimulating for Kosuke than just gaining a verbal advantage!

"You... even if you look down on this industry, there should be a limit!"

Provoked by the other party's arrogant declaration, Utaha Kasumigaoka completely disagreed with the meaning of Kosuke's words.

To this, Kitahara Kosuke expressed understanding.

"I see. You probably can't accept it, Senpai, and I have no way to tell you the specific reasons for my confidence."

"But what I said is indeed the truth, and you will see this truth soon."

Kosuke couldn't reveal his secret of being a transmigrator, so he wouldn't feel any dissatisfaction over this trivial matter.

The senior's attitude at this moment was correct.

For him, watching the two-dimensional character he liked in his previous life get flustered was actually quite an amusing thing.

"Although I've deeply understood how annoying you are as a person, I didn't expect you could still repeatedly say such infuriating things..."

Utaha Kasumigaoka said in a very fast voice, her mouth full of resentment.

"Actually, even if it sells well, it doesn't necessarily mean the quality of the novel is higher. There are various factors that affect sales..."

Sonoko Machida also expressed her opinion to Kitahara Kosuke.

The girl beside him was a living example.

The quality of her novel was very good, but it had almost been axed due to promotional reasons.

So she couldn't agree with the idea that sales were everything.

"That doesn't sound like something an editor would say."

Kitahara Kosuke replied noncommittally, then gave the other party a small compliment.

"However, although it might not be entirely correct, I really like the innocence in you, Miss Machida."

As a working adult, being able to have her own principles in the workplace, and even going against her superiors for Utaha Kasumigaoka's almost-axed work, was certainly rare.

And she was a great beauty.

A truly outstanding beauty.

He composed himself.

"Having said that, considering the commercial attributes of light novels, sales are still the most direct standard for reflecting success or failure. On this point, Senpai should be the one who understands it the most deeply."

"Yes, I agree with your statement on this one point."

Utaha Kasumigaoka nodded.

Having been taught a lesson by reality before, she couldn't disagree with this.

"However, even with such awareness, I can't take what you just said as a joke. You're underestimating this industry too much."

Utaha couldn't help but frown, admonishing the junior who seemed determined to write light novels.

Half of it was her displeasure with this guy, and the other half was out of kindness.

"There's no point in arguing about this now. I'll make you see the result."

Kitahara Kosuke replied, not caring at all.

The number of strategies in his head was so many that it could cause choice paralysis.

If one didn't work, he would switch to another. It was impossible that the idiot woman at home couldn't be successfully utilized in even one of them.

With the support of inspiration, Kitahara Kosuke didn't think Yoshida Saki would be any worse than the great cosmic literary master, the original author of the "Wall of Masterpieces."

If it really came down to the worst-case scenario, Kosuke would have no choice but to give up on her and let that guy continue to be her freeloader.

As long as she didn't get scammed by anyone.

"You're very confident, but... what if you lose?"

"I couldn't possibly pretend I didn't hear those arrogant words just now."

Hearing this person's persistence, Utaha Kasumigaoka also confronted Kosuke with no less momentum.

Looking down at the girl for a few seconds, Kitahara Kosuke thought for a moment, feeling that it was annoying that this matter couldn't be resolved, so he simply said directly.

"Apologize."

"I will sincerely apologize to you, would that satisfy you?"

Their gazes met, and the burning momentum he saw in her eyes softened.

It seemed she agreed.

After all, the girl wasn't some villain; as long as the other party was willing to apologize, she wouldn't keep pestering him.

"Alright. I agree to this condition."

Utaha Kasumigaoka nodded and said.

"Okay then, goodbye."

Kitahara Kosuke said, also feeling relieved in his heart, intending to leave with Miss Kotonoha.

"Wait!"

"What is it now?!"

Stopping in his tracks, Kosuke looked at the girl who had spoken, asking with great displeasure.

"You haven't said what you want me to do if you win."

Utaha Kasumigaoka wouldn't take such a small advantage of her junior.

"No need."

Kosuke replied very straightforwardly.

"Is it because you're worried you can't win, so you're planning to give up?"

"In that case, as long as you apologize for what Ethical Boy did for you, I won't need anything. We can pretend the previous things didn't happen."

"..."

Kitahara Kosuke hadn't originally intended to ask for anything.

He didn't like gambling, he just wanted to defeat her in her strongest field, and then enjoy the sight of the senior being annoyed with him but unable to do anything about it.

No matter how much this woman said, his sales would just be higher than hers.

That look on her face would make him very happy just thinking about it.

Moreover, the things he wanted, this woman couldn't give him.

There was nothing he could gain from the senior.

So after thinking about it, he decided to forget it.

But...

Ethical Boy, Ethical Boy, Ethical Boy...

Forced to recall the image of that guy he disliked, Kosuke felt an uncontrollable surge of annoyance in his heart.

"If I lose, I will not only apologize to you, but also to your Ethical Boy."

Kitahara Kosuke set this constraint for himself.

Then he changed the subject.

"But, if my friend wins against you in sales, then please have Senpai withdraw from your Ethical Boy's club."

"And you're not allowed to collaborate with him again in any form for at least three years."

After thinking about it, Kosuke decided that since he was doing this, he might as well cause some trouble for that guy who wanted to freeload.

As for three years later... he didn't think that guy Aki Tomoya would still be worthy of his attention then.

Kitahara Kosuke had no idea that even if he won, he wouldn't gain any benefits. frёewebηovel.cѳm

Because, even if he didn't make this request, Aki Tomoya at this moment was already completely occupied and had no time to run his club.

Aki Tomoya's daily life was much more colorful than before in a certain sense, but he hadn't paid attention to Tomoya's affairs for a long time, so he was completely unaware of all this.

"Oh, right. And... you can do whatever you like elsewhere, Senpai, but please don't mention that person's name in front of me again."

After thinking about it, Kosuke added this to the girl.

"These are my conditions. Are you willing to accept them, Kasu-mi-ga-o-ka-sen-pai?"
