Episode 17: Receiving Numerous Offers After Randomly Posting an Old Short Story

The two beautiful girls explored the room, taking their time around. Last time they couldn’t relax much, mainly because of my father (he bombarded them with questions).

And then, it happened.

(TLN: lol, gentle reminder again sorry I have to write this in between but if you are reading this on websites other than akstranslations.wordpress.com then leave it quickly please as they are stealing my work,thank you : ) )

“What’s… w-what’s wrong?”

“I’m so… so sorry… this short story… it’s making me cry so much…”

Yurie says while her eyes well up.

The notebook contained a short story I wrote a long time ago.

“Please let me read it too!”

*Sob* “Wait a moment… I want to read it a little more carefully…”

“No! Give it to me! Right now!”

*Clap!* Alyssa snatches the notebook from Yurie.

She reads the story at an astonishing speed.

*Sob* “It’s amazing, Yuta-kun! That short story is a masterpiece!”

“No, that’s an exaggeration… it was just something I quickly wrote during my sixth-grade elementary school days when I had free time… an immature piece of writing.”

“That’s not true! It’s on par with Demigod! It’s the greatest work!”

With sparkling eyes, Yurie says passionately.

Even if it’s just flattery, it makes me happy.

“Wow… to think you could create such a masterpiece since childhood…”

*Sob* *Sniffle* Alyssa starts crying too!

Wait, is it really that amazing?

“Yuta-san, well done. This… *sob*… was the best.”

Alyssa holds the notebook close to her chest and closes her eyes.

“I’ve never read such an amazing short story before.”

“Ah, thanks…”
