How a Hero Lives as a Writer - How a Hero Lives as a Writer chapter 116

116 – The Influence of Culture (2)

Two weeks have passed since I voluntarily went into canning.

“Whoa… !”

The air is so refreshing when you come out after being locked up in your room.

Angelica told her to ventilate as thoroughly as she did, so she left the window open, but she seems to have a different air from the outside.

I locked myself in my room for two weeks and finished the stories of books 2 and 3 of Unrewarded.

There was a lot of writing for the second volume, so I was able to finish it sooner than I thought.

ㅡ The more I look at it, the more I am amazed.

What is it?

ㅡ Your writing speed.

If you have a laptop, it’s faster.

I can write 5 episodes a day for works that can be written without the brain, like Mi-compensation.

ㅡ A novel written by Mibosang without his brain….

Miss Helena told me to check her newspaper, feeling that she was stupid.

Today is the day the weekly magazine comes out, so let’s read the newspaper.

Because I’ve been locked up in my room, I didn’t even know how the world was going.

I immediately asked the employee to receive the weekly magazine that came out this week.

Let’s see….

“A drought?”

The drought you talked about with the merchant the other day has become a reality.

It’s not that the whole continent is suffering from a vicious drought, but some areas are suffering from drought.

But fortunately, it seems that the damage was minimized by the quick response of the lord and merchants.

The reservoir was repaired before the snow completely melted, and trees that absorb and store a lot of water were transplanted around the reservoir and riverside to prevent the water from evaporating in the scorching sun.

As a bonus, they forbade farming crops with extreme water consumption, and hired a magician to freeze water in advance to secure drinking water later.

In addition, stable trade in food was made through prior agreements with merchants that had a large stockpile of food.

It was a very exemplary response.

But what about this?

ㅡ It’s the influence of the novel you wrote with your brain removed.

Underneath it, a ‘merchant who sees the future’ was mentioned as the reason why such a quick response was possible.

“Critics from aristocracy evaluate the writer Bright as a person more suitable for a merchant.”

Yes, there were definitely some reviews like this.

Anyway, since they were from the same aristocracy, there was nothing to hold them back from, so they used to criticize them in a bit harsh way.

But I couldn’t even refute this because it wasn’t wrong.

Because web novels are close to products created by analyzing the market.

The novels I wrote while playing in such a market were thoroughly commercially approached.

ㅡ Considering the things you’ve done, it’s a more credible claim.

These are the things I’ve been doing….

Establishment of the Academy, an educational institution based on a lady.

A new and safe heating device that produces high heat with less firewood.

A new culture called comics that didn’t exist before.

Moreover, desserts that can only be tasted in Oaklea.

Since I have definitely been doing this, I think there must be people who regard me as a merchant rather than an artist.

Anyway, in such a situation, I released ‘The Merchant Who Sees the Future’.

“Writer Bright is stubborn. He is like a pioneer who always takes on new challenges.”

From noble mtl dot com

I made a new attempt this time, and this time, surprisingly, the main character was a merchant.

Unlike previous works, it is not a setting that is unnecessary, but a story that utilizes the point of being a merchant.

“It is understood that there was a preliminary investigation that was close to obsession as much as it was stubborn.”

… Although the expression is a bit exaggerated, I did my best to research in advance.

Because I’ve looked through so many books about signs of a drought.

The things I have done and the public’s evaluation of me.

With the wisdom of the elderly who have experienced drought, it has become possible to respond to drought in the early stages.

What was written in the newspaper was roughly like this.

“Did the writer Bright expect all of this?”

Can’t that be?

That Adari got hit by accident.

There are areas that are droughty and there are areas that rained well like in previous years, so it is literally a product of coincidence.

But what… That’s how I became an influential person.

I’m afraid of what kind of reaction there will be if I suddenly say, ‘Uncompensated is a novel written without the brain.’

“Ugh!”

Ugh, after moving my body for the first time in a while, my body feels sore.

ㅡ Morning training, invited lectures, Reina writing advice, and monastery services?

Except for that, everything was in the room!

Anyway, since I’ve finished writing Volumes 2 & 3 and finishing editing, I’ll have to take them to the store.

Let’s quickly finish Volumes 4 & 5 as well.

ㅡ Is Lady’s stockpile okay?

Lady now has an exchange meeting with her vocational training center, so it’s time for school trips and cultural festivals.

I want to decorate it a little more colorfully, so I’m waiting.

ㅡ What?

It’s the technological revolution of the dwarf artisans.

If you do well, hot air balloons, hang gliders, and steam locomotives might come out soon.

Wouldn’t Aucklia with a parade car be extravagant?

I want to describe the lady’s school trip and cultural festival with the feeling of adding to the festive mood.

Now I’m scared because I only have 2 books in my stockpile, but I still have to wait.

“Master, aren’t you tired?”

“Someone trains me thoroughly, so I don’t mind this much.”

When I first came here, it was to die for.

Because I wasn’t used to writing a novel by hand.

But now my stamina has increased and I have holy power, so it’s not that hard.

Even so, the thought of regret still lingers.

… I don’t think this is the moment when a new tool is needed.

Yes, I need a typewriter.

It’s hard to type!

But I don’t know the basics of a typewriter, so I don’t know if the dwarves can make one.

“Sorry.”

“No, why do you take it that way?”

“Just kidding.”

No, this guy?

“Maybe I won’t need an escort like this anymore.”

“Why?”

“You have become very strong. Now you can win even if you fight the soldiers, right?”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Perhaps it was because I had been taught one-on-one by Angelica, I was able to use quite useful swordsmanship.

Now, it’s to the point where I can’t overwhelm you with a one-on-one score, but I won’t lose unless you’re a knight class.

I’ve grown this much in just one year, so I must have put in some effort.

“Well, if escorts are no longer needed….”

“I don’t know how to escort you, but you should have at least one secretary. Is not it?”

It must have been a cute worry.

This cute guy.

I joked around with Angelica for a while.

While doing so, the carriage gradually slowed down.

It seems that we have arrived at the store.

Now then, shall we visit the editor-in-chief?

***

“… Didn’t you say 2 months? It has only been two weeks since that day.”

“It turned out that way because I wrote it.”

The editor-in-chief looked at me with an expression like, ‘What kind of bastards are there?’.

No matter how much it was, I noticed that I had never imagined that I would bring 2 volumes of articles in 2 weeks.

“It seems that I was worrying for nothing. After all, the beings called heroes are all non-human beings.”

I hope you don’t put me on the same line as those monsters.

An invitation to destroy the Undead Legion tainted by the curse that filled the horizon with a single blow.

The 2nd generation builds an empire by themselves in 5 years with internal affairs cheats.

The 3rd generation effortlessly stopped the defense battle, where even the 2nd generation struggled with their own strength without the power of the holy sword.

Aside from that, the 4th, 5th, and 6th generation that didn’t come forward are definitely beings who have reached the realm of humans.

I’m just a writer with a bit of stamina at best.

In the other world, there was a monster who wrote 3 or 4 works prolifically even though he was a one-sided writer.

In the flat-rate market, there were unexpectedly prolific writers, but there were also a lot of people who published 2 serials a day.

I’m average in terms of the Korean web novel market.

The editor-in-chief looked at me with an absurd expression, then started staring at the manuscript in front of his eyes.

I think I have something to say….

No way?

“This is a gift to the merchants I have a deep relationship with.”

After hearing my words, the editor-in-chief looked up at me with a worried expression.

I replied with a nod at him.

Don’t! Are we Nami?

Although it was a complicated relationship, we’ve known each other for a long time.

“Just keep your promise not to reveal the story.”

“… Of course.”

The editor-in-chief rang the bell and summoned the store’s staff to instruct the binding work.

I drank tea while looking at him.

“Anyway, it seems too fast. If you have passed the post-retirement work….”

“It can’t be. I did it, I did it.”

I still can’t believe it.

“This genre was common in the other world, and it is easy to use because I have used it often.”

I just did a little bit of arrangement work to match Mare’s situation.

“Whoa.”

The editor-in-chief took a deep breath and shook his head to regain his cool.

“I don’t think the writer would have done this much just to repay the merchant. Could you tell me why you did this?”

… It’s pretty sharp too.

“Micompensation, which tells the story of a merchant, contains a more reader-friendly environment.”

“What do you mean by that?”

Lady, good fortune, seven’s tale.

All of these works are interesting, but the main characters are each in a special position.

The heroine of Lady is a noble.

The main character of Good luck is a knight.

The protagonist of Seven’s Tale soon becomes a hero.

So they all live in other worlds that don’t have much to do with the majority of readers.

But uncompensated is different.

In order to emphasize the special character of the main character, he got the chance to return, but the main character is a common trader.

The stories dealt with also contain stories that can happen in everyday life.

This means that readers do not perceive this novel as someone else’s story.

“What the writer wants….”

“Did my work raise awareness about the drought?”

If so, there is a high possibility that it will affect other parts as well.

Dealing with epidemics in Mibosang makes people pay more attention to washing.

When dealing with floods in Mibosang, people build dikes and mend ditches on their own.

If you deal with a typhoon in unrewarded, the following is omitted.

“There is a mysterious power hidden in letters.”

This is what the editor-in-chief said one day when he took off his mask and revealed his true identity.

“Enough power to make the world a better place.”

At the time, they said it was strong enough to make people kill each other.

Something impresses me.

I chatted with the editor-in-chief for a while after that, then got on the carriage back home.

“Tomorrow’s schedule is the academy?”

“Yes, lord.”

Cooks can now produce desserts with consistent quality.

So it’s time to introduce a new dessert to the academy.

ㅡ After dessert?

If you go to the studio and ask for a typewriter and finish the non-compensation, you will soon have to put the story of the four generations into a seven’s tale.

By that time, there are only two warriors left, so I think I’ll have plenty of time.

ㅡ Really? So is it new?

Yes, I’m going to write a new work now, so please wait a little bit.

Miss Helena was very happy, like a child who received a present.

You really like books….

From now on, I thought that I should put more weight on writing activities.
