Start by Becoming a Mangaka

Chapter 10: 3 System Lottery



Both Yuuki and Hina-chan didn't move and observed the girl ate a paper from the book slowly. He knew the girl in front of him. Her name was Kuina and she was also the resident in Hitotose Dorm. Her hobby was reading a book and eating it at the same time.

Yuuki knew from the anime, Kuina was always eating a book. It would be strange if he didn't startle to see someone eating a book for the first time.

"Yu-Yuuki, is that girl eating a book?" Hina-chan who was by his side asked.

"Yeah, she is eating a book," Yuuki answered.

Both of them looked at the Kuina again until she noticed them looking at her through the window. She was startled but hurriedly came to the entrance.

"Is there something, I can help?" Kuina asked them, but Hina-chan was too nervous in front of her.

Yuuki was worried how Hina-chan would live if her nervousness still continued.

"A-a-ano-a-a-no.." Yuuki who was by her side didn't help her. He wanted her to grow up.

'Hina-chan!! I believe in you!!' Yuuki was waiting for her to say something.

"A-ano... I was told that I would be living here." Yuuki was happy that Hina-chan could talk to her.

"Aaah! Are you Hinako-chan! Please, welcome to Hitotose dorm!!" Kuina became excited and pulled her inside, but she stopped when she noticed Yuuki.

"And this is? Are you gonna enter Hitotose Dorm too?" Kuina asked curiously.

"No, I'm not gonna living here and I'm just helping Hina-chan too find this dorm." Yuuki shook his head.

"Oh, that's right! I'll call the manager first!" After saying that, Kuina ran toward the 2nd floor leaving Yuuki and Hina-chan there.

"She is a very spirited girl." Hina-chan nodded in response.

Yuuki and Hina-chan were waiting in the bookstore. He was quite interested in the Hitotose Dorm. He knew in the 1st floor there was a cafe and bookstore. On the 2nd floor, it was a place for the apartment.

Yuuki walked toward the counter where Kuina leaving her book behind. He opened the book and saw the book was being shredded by Kuina.

"She must be hungry." Hina-chan sweatdropped in response.

Both of them were looking around until Kuina came.

"I'm sorry, it seems the manager is still out," Kuina said.

Yuuki was fine when he saw her, but Hina-chan couldn't look straight into Kuina. Kuina was confused by Hina-chan's action.

"Why are you looking away from me?" Kuina asked curiously.

"This is my first time seeing someone eating a book..." Hina-chan turned her head.

"Well, yeah, this is my first time seeing someone eating a book," Yuuki said. He had never thought that such a good book would become her food.

Kuina was startled hearing their statements. She started fidgeting and talked nervously.

"That....Ano....I like reading a book and a book is my friend." Kuina turned her head. "I really like them, I want to eat them."

Both Yuuki and Hina-chan were sweatdropping at her answer.

'Don't eat your friend!' That was what in their mind.

"We-well, I'll show your room first!!" Kuina changed the conversation.

"Then, I'll be leaving first, Hina-chan." Yuuki needed to go back first to prepare to move away and checked his reward from the quest.

"He-hey? You're leaving?" Hina-chan looked sad.

"Yeah, why are you leaving?" Kuina also said.

"Well, you've found your apartment. I've some matter that I've to attend." Yuuki said, but Hina-chan still looked sad.

"It's not like we won't be able to meet again. We can meet in the school." Hina-chan looked better when she heard they could meet in the school.

"Ye-yeah, let's meet in the school." Hina-chan looked happy.

"Then, bye, Hina-chan, Kuina." Yuuki waved his hand and said goodbye.

"Bye, Yuuki-senpai." Hina-chan waved her hand.

"Yeah!! Bye, Yuuki!!" Kuina waved her hand hard. She was a very spirited girl.

Yuuki walked away and felt glad to meet both of them.

---

When Yuuki was gone from Hitotose Dorm, Kuina asked Hina-chan.

"Is he your boyfriend, Hina-chan?" Kuina asked curiously.

"Bo-boy-boy-boyfr-boy..." Hina-chan couldn't finish her word and became tense. She moved her hands upward and posed into a scarecrow.

"Why do you become a scarecrow?" Kuina titled her head.

Little did Kuina knew that Hina-chan was too nervous and couldn't say anything.

Yuuki walked to his home with a happy mood. He greeted every member of Shuuei Clan and entered his home.

Raku was curious why he was so happy.

"Why are you, so happy Yuuki?" Raku asked.

"My manga has been accepted and it'll be published later." Yuuki didn't mind sharing the happy news.

"Wow, that's great!" His dad who heard it was also happy.

"Where is Ryuu? Let's drink!!" Yuuki didn't mind a drink now.

"Ah, Yuuki-bocchan! Are you ready to celebrate with us?" Ryuu asked.

"Yes, let's party tonight!!! Let's party until we fainted!!" Yuuki was happy that his manga had been accepted by a publisher, met a beautiful girl, and lastly, his little brother had been saved. He needed to celebrate this happy day.

"YEAH, LET'S PARTY!!"

"YEAH!!!"

They were happy and had a party for the entire night.

"HEY!! DON'T MESS THE HOUSE!!!" Raku was mad at them because he was the one who had always cleaned the house.

"Hahaha, don't be tight Raku! Let's party together!!" Yuuki pulled him and made him join the party.

"Wa-wait, Aniki!!" Raku sighed but joined them.

That night it was very merrier in the Shuuei Clan's headquarter.

---

Yuuki entered his room after that wild party last night. All of them were wasted on the living room and Raku was also sleeping there. He was better because his body was stronger and he wanted to check his reward.

Yuuki opened his system interface and opened his system lottery.

"Open!"

Yuuki looked at the lottery started to roll and he prayed that system wouldn't give him a strange or useless reward.
