A deathly silence fell in front of the long table.

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, and finally looked at Lorry with strange eyes.

Viscount Glaint showed a look of recollection and said uncertainly:

"Isn't it right? The first time I heard the name "Young Roselle" was through Male Servant at home. He said that the early novels were serialized on Newspaper.

"There was an issue of Newspaper, which was supposed to serialize the next two chapters, but only included an apology letter:

"The publisher explained that they had tried every means to contact the author himself and could only entrust his neighbor to urge the manuscript on his behalf."

"... Ahem, that was an accident." Lorry glanced at Viscount Glaint angrily, how can you repay kindness with hatred?

He explained:

"I went to the countryside to collect materials during that time, not at Backlund."

Xio's eyes swayed, and she leaned close to her friend and whispered:

"Fors, his excuses are much better than yours. Every time you tell the editor, "I have no inspiration and can't write," people get tired of hearing it."

Fors retorted in a low voice with dissatisfaction:

"Shut up, I haven't delayed my manuscript a few times in total, okay?"

Xio curled her lips and continued to enjoy the dessert.

Whether or not the manuscript has been delayed... someone knows it in his own mind.

He looked away angrily, and Fors continued to look at the person who was speaking, his eyes flickering slightly, and he silently memorized the reasons he just said.

During the chat, the topic quickly changed to the next one.

Everyone began to discuss the methodology of creating literary works again.

--Fors and Lorry themselves are in the writer industry, and others, including Hugh, have received a good education, so the topic is not obtrusive.

Soon it was Lorry's turn to speak:

"I think there are two classic techniques when writing novels. To borrow the words of Emperor Roselle, they are to suppress desires first and to suppress desires first.

"The former is like "Young Roselle". The young emperor goes through a divorce and a series of hardships, and finally returns to participate in the martial arts competition.

"The latter is like "Stormy Mountain Villa" by Fors.

"When everyone thought Ms. Sisi was about to have a beautiful love, the "evil spirit" appeared, which is a typical method of this kind.

"So...

"The text you see may not be Truth--sometimes the plot is light-hearted and happy, but it is more likely to be the prelude to a Catastrophe."

After saying that, he looked sideways to his side: ""Sisi" What do you think, madam?"

"Ms. "Sisi" thinks your statement is incomplete." Fors said with a smile, "After defeating the "evil spirit", she will finally have a beautiful love."

The eyes of the other ladies present sparkled when they heard this.

Even Audrey, who now devotes all his energy to studying the extraordinary world, can't help but fantasize about what beautiful love tastes like.

What is love... Golden Dog on the ground wagged its tail in confusion.

Salon ends.

The three guests bid farewell to the host and left Empress Borough.

Lorry was temporarily separated from Fors and Xio. With the explanation statement prepared in advance, he visited the major newspaper offices that had previously refused him entry.

Not surprisingly, he was warmly received and was able to publish the announcement in a prime position on the front page at a very favorable price.

This allowed writer Raven to fully taste the joy of "raising" after "first suppressing", and couldn't help feeling that literary creation really comes from life.

Being able to play with Audrey, the princess indeed has a similar background... I'm just sorry, I don't have the ability to change your father's fate...

Otherwise, I would have chosen to enjoy the shade under the big tree Duke’s Residence... This is the promotion of King of Angel, and it is the choice of the times...

Lorry, who was riding Hired Carriage to Cherwood Borough, thought of the fate of the grand duke in the near future and couldn't help but sigh for the princess he just met today.

He had dinner with the two ladies, chatted for a while, and returned to the ceramics factory with his own 1,000 pounds and magical items.

Albert came forward excitedly:

"Woof!"

Lorry patted its furry head, took out a pack of dog biscuits from his pocket and threw it to it. "Susie shared the snacks with you."

Albert hesitated for a moment, then immediately shouted excitedly:

"Woof woof woof!"

It happily tore open the package and ate it.

Lorry said deliberately:

"People are now ready to Advancement Sequence 8, start learning vocabulary and grammar, and read paper novels. You haven't even digested "Arbiter"Potion."

"If this continues, when can I take you to see her?"

After the words fell, Albert's chewing speed slowed down significantly, and finally stopped completely, standing there with a dull expression.

After a moment, it raised its head vigorously:

"I will work hard to catch Thief. I also want to learn what she learned.

"Master, can you teach me?"

"Teach you..." Lorry thought for a while and felt that he didn't have the time, so he muttered, "Should I consider hiring a professional teacher for you?"

He motioned to Albert to continue eating, and at the same time asked in his mind:

"Old Gentleman, you said:

"Which one is more attractive, a student who is smart and talented but doesn't like studying, or a student who is stupid and has no talent but is very eager for knowledge?"

The old voice replied without thinking:

"Of course it's the latter."

Hearing this, Lorry laughed:

"Then I will find you a student like this. Do you want to teach him? Well, this student's foundation is relatively weak at the moment. He doesn't even know Loenese."

"I always feel like you have bad intentions." The old voice muttered.

"But I agreed. Why are you so lazy to study and Exam recently? You are really following a boss and learning from someone else."

It sighed, its tone full of hatred that iron could not become steel.

"Ahem, okay... I'll introduce you to each other right now." After saying that, Lorry lifted White Bone Ring's seal, pointed at Albert and said:

"Old Gentleman, this is that student."

Then, he took another photo of Albert's head:

"Why don't you say hello to the teacher quickly?"

Albert looked at White Bone Ring, his round eyes full of confusion.

Teacher?

The dog thought the teacher would at least be a human being...

"You two chat, I have something else to do." After introducing the two parties, Lorry took Pound and Mask like Sealed Artifact and walked towards Bedroom inside.

The former is the income of "Justice" from purchasing "Sunfire", and the latter is the price paid by "Hanged Man" to purchase "Wind-blessed" Formula.

After receiving nearly 1,000 pounds in royalties from his first two books and paying advertising fees from major newspapers, his savings have exceeded 4,500 pounds.

But this is only a temporary appearance.

In the next period of time, most of them will flow into MI9 in the form of Sealed Artifact, thus converting into accumulated Merit.

Of course, before that, he will maximize the use of this wealth and put it in "Lucky Money Bag" to accumulate good luck for himself.

While Lorry was planning this, he put Pound into Grayish-White Worn Money Bag, picked up Mask and Sealed Artifact, and prepared to study it carefully.

He glanced at the calendar and found that tomorrow was Thursday.

This is the date when Klein went on a killing spree in Human Trafficker Capim and released the kidnapped girl in the Luxury Villa in Original Novel, but now it is a little different.

Lorry secretly took charge of this matter.
