"What? Don't believe me? I'll draw for you, let you see my drawing skills first." Hasegawa smiled, took out a pen, and drew casually on the paper.
Hasegawa's drawing speed is quite fast, and compared with comics, it can be regarded as a simple drawing. So after a few strokes, a clear figure stood on the paper.
"Huh?" Eriri looked at the figure drawn by Hasegawa, and was surprised, especially because Hasegawa drew quite fast.
Eriri found that Hasegawa's drawing skills were indeed not as good as hers, but they were not too bad. At least Hasegawa's drawing skills would be recognized even if he applied for a comic assistant.
"You, really can draw." Eriri said in surprise.
"I said it, because of my interest, I learned it on purpose. And drawing comics is not very difficult to learn." Hasegawa said with a smile.
"Isn't it very difficult?" Eriri looked at Hasegawa speechlessly. He had already written a best-selling light novel, and his ability in drawing comics was not much worse. And most importantly, Hasegawa was a top student, the first in the grade. Although Eriri didn't want to admit it, she felt that Hasegawa was probably the legendary genius.
Of course, Eriri was also a genius, a genius in drawing.
"Well, it's just my personal feeling. By the way, Sawamura-san, I actually have some small questions about drawing comics. Can I ask you?" Hasegawa felt that it was a waste to leave such a great guy like Eriri alone.
Hasegawa felt that Eriri's drawing skills, if put in the system board skills, should be at least level 4.
Just like Saeko Busujima is at level 4 in kendo. Eriri is also in the same way in drawing comics.
"Well, of course no problem. Tell me what you want to ask." Eriri said casually.
"Actually, when I draw comics, I always encounter such problems..." Hasegawa asked some of the problems he had encountered before. Eriri was able to respond calmly to almost every question of Hasegawa, and answered Hasegawa's questions in her own way.
After Eriri's explanation, Hasegawa's proficiency immediately increased, and then the skill of drawing was directly upgraded to level 3.
With a level 3 skill, if Hasegawa has no problem with the story plot, he can even debut as a cartoonist.
Just like when Hasegawa was writing the novel "Tokyo Ghoul", Hasegawa's writing skill was level 3.
Looking at the improvement of the skill level, Hasegawa began to try to redraw the character he had drawn before. Then the comparison between the two will give people a very different look.
Hasegawa was not surprised by this result, but Eriri, who was standing by, could not help but look at Hasegawa in surprise. Hasegawa's progress was too great. Although she told Hasegawa some problems, they were not important, but Hasegawa improved so much.
At this time, Eriri believed what Hasegawa said before. If he waited for another half a year, Hasegawa would really be able to draw comics for "Tokyo Ghoul". No, to be precise, it was not half a year later. Now it was almost possible. After all, although Hasegawa's painting skills were not very high, "Tokyo Ghoul" was written by him. His understanding and control of the plot of "Tokyo Ghoul" far exceeded that of others, which was also a great advantage.
"Are you a monster?" Eriri could not help but speak out what she was thinking subconsciously.
"Monster? I think it would sound better if you use genius. Although, I don't think I am a genius." Hasegawa smiled. In Hasegawa's heart, he attributed all this to his system. If there was no system, he would probably be just an ordinary person, or, as the saying goes in fantasy novels, an average person. Well, not a loser.
Eriri rolled her eyes, but in her mind, Hasegawa did leave her with a label of genius.
However, knowing that Hasegawa had a certain understanding and ability in comics, or more precisely, in drawing comics, Eriri's view of Hasegawa changed unconsciously.
How should I put it? It was probably like finding a partner with the same hobby. She herself didn't realize that she relaxed a lot in front of Hasegawa.
Especially when communicating about the plot, Eriri became more natural.
Eriri became natural, and Hasegawa also felt a lot more relaxed. So the communication between the two gradually became more frequent.
From the beginning, it was just a simple communication about the plot, and later it gradually began to involve comics. Later, Eriri began to instruct Hasegawa on how to improve his comic skills and how to draw better.
After that, the topic gradually became wider.
Then, Hasegawa often heard about Tomoya Aki from Eriri. Most of them were complaining about Tomoya Aki.
After such communication, Hasegawa probably understood that the relationship between Eriri and Tomoya Aki was a bit complicated. Eriri and Tomoya Aki were childhood sweethearts. But later, for some reason, the two became estranged. Especially Hasegawa found that Eriri was a typical freeloader.
So, the relationship between the two of them was stuck there.
Tomoya Aki seemed to have no feelings at all. But Eriri felt like she was going to be pissed off, or even exploded.
Hasegawa felt that Eriri's twin ponytails were a standard version of tsundere. Hasegawa felt that she might have some special feelings for Tomoya Aki, but it was because of her own personality that she became like this.
As for whether Eriri likes Tomoya Aki. Hasegawa was not sure. How should I put it? When Eriri and Tomoya Aki had a conflict, they seemed to be still elementary school students, and until now, they are both high school students. For so many years, there has been no serious communication.
Even if they really like each other, it has almost been worn out after so many years.
And the most important thing is that Tomoya Aki has no feelings for real girls at all. He only likes beautiful girls in the second dimension. That kind of personality will probably never change in his life. Hasegawa felt that Tomoya Aki would probably be single for the rest of his life.
