Akaeda never imagined that the first step in getting Sakunosuke Oda to start writing would be to give him writing lessons.

"What do you mean you don't know what to write?" "Dante" showed a surprised expression for the first time.

Didn't you make up your mind to write the ending of 'Why Killers Don't Kill Anymore'?He thought to himself, this is a good theme.

"There's only one book I want to write. But it's not advisable to set a limit when practicing, right?" Oda scratched his head and said.

"Dante" almost blurted out 'you already have the tool', but reason stopped the impulse.He looked up at the ceiling and thought for a while, then took out the parchment-bound booklet from his clothes pocket.

"This is the poetry collection of my teacher Virgil. I was taught to create poetry." "Dante" opened the booklet, which is full of poems written in Latin, "Just listen to it. Anyway. Pros and cons."

"First of all, don't say anything against your heart. Among all people, we know ourselves best, and we use ourselves as the object of description to express our unique and unique things. There is such a saying: "Strike the heart, the genius is in the There.’ If you don’t know what to write, you might as well start by recording your self-talk and inner speech, and start by describing the life you live. After all, life is the first of all art.”

"Secondly, it's perfectly fine to choose a slightly more special theme. You must have had a lot of heart-shattering moments in your past." He glanced at Oda, and found that the other party didn't respond, and continued, "From the walking In the earth, from the mud covered with shoes, live, bloody clay is extracted and rubbed with hands. This is the so-called writing with the spirit of the times."

"Finally, it's the turmoil of the soul. I don't know you well enough to tell if you're depressed, empty, or if you're an infinitely harmonious person with a peaceful mind. But even if it's like plucking the strings The turmoil of the spirit is enough to achieve a new harmony like a chord. So there are inexhaustible resources both inwardly and outwardly."

"This is what I have been taught in poetry. I should also be able to refer to it when I write novels."

Oda looked at "Dante" talking confidently, and the timidity of writing subconsciously dissipated a little.

Let's start with the everyday stuff, he told himself.

On the other hand, Akaeda, who left the apartment on the grounds that he would not disturb Oda's writing after finishing his "teachings", finally remembered to take a closer look at the bookstores in this world.

[Your words are quite effective.The progress of the main task has been advanced. 】

Chizhi checked the progress bar that moved forward a small space, and heaved a sigh of relief.

'1% ah, what kind of alternative no regrets is this?Or is it true that Oda Sakunosuke is destined to become a great writer? He slandered, "It's a good thing I used the wisdom of my predecessors to fool me." '

【Are you referring to Virgil's teaching? 】

’ That’s not what Virgil said.Although there are multiple editions of "Aeneid" and "Idyll" at home, the Latin I know is actually only medical terms, and the collection of poems exchanged is not so much for reading, as it is for maintaining the character.If Oda wants to thank, he can thank Musset and Baudelaire. '

'If that doesn't work, I have the theories of Stendhal, Lessing, and Valery to spare.I just didn't expect that the literary theory that I used to read out of boredom would be useful one day. Chizhi pushed open the door of the nearest large bookstore while talking to the system.

He was greeted by rows of books he had never read.

He started from the best-selling bookshelf, randomly picked a book with a clean cover, and started reading.

'How should I say it? '

'The emptiness that always leaves after a bad book? '

'Although it didn't reach the disgusting level, it was really disappointing as expected. '

'Bestsellers are, of course, rubbish.But the bookshelves of pure literature are also full of mediocre works. The novels are well-crafted, and they are bad without any special features.Judging from the number of bookshelves of translated literature, the world's literary world is equally deficient.As for poetry and drama, after spending 3 minutes failing to find a place to put them, my courage to search for them disappeared. '

Chizhi finally stopped by the shelf of reference books and began to look up dictionaries in various languages.

[Noticing that the host is looking up a dictionary, do you need the system to scan and enter it? 】

Akaeda put down the English dictionary, slid his fingers along the spine of the French dictionary, and took out the Italian dictionary.

'Still not.I probably won't watch them a second time.Before successfully setting the identity of "Dante", I thought that the change of language is actually based on literary works as a carrier.In my world, the "Divine Comedy" played a huge role in the standardization and promotion of Italian colloquialism, which eventually developed into the modern Italian language.The Seven Star Poetry Society in France has enriched the French vocabulary and perfected the French grammar.Shakespeare in England even coined thousands of words.I'm not familiar with Japanese literature, but I'm afraid that's about the same.Therefore, the language system of this world will be different from what I am used to. Now I am looking through the dictionary, and I can only say that it is as expected. '

'At first I thought that the composite world might not be that exaggerated, but the shock I received in the bookstore for a few hours today was even greater than when I witnessed how poor and backward this slum in Yokohama was before.However, I was somewhat mentally prepared. My mood was actually neither good nor bad, but I had a deeper understanding of how difficult the main task was.Speaking of other people, I don’t know if they can hook up a few people to write, and let’s forget about those who curse back to the set, they are all gorillas, so there is little hope. '

In the end, Chizhi didn't buy a book, but went to the stationery counter.

[Do you need to contact the publishing house to publish works in the host world? 】

'Then judging from the number of books I need to publish, I might as well set up a publishing house and print them myself, or simply claim that the supernatural ability is to read books in parallel worlds in my dreams. '

【…】

'You really think so. Chizhi couldn't help but be dumbfounded in his mind.

He took two stacks of graph paper, a pen and a bottle of ink, and turned to the counter to pay.

Feeling that the system has been silent, he continued to speak in his mind with a sense of comfort.

'If I hadn't set the premise of a writer who fits the worldview, I would have done it this way, after all, it is the easiest way. '

'Once an excellent literary work of another world is printed on a large scale, it will soon become an anomaly that attracts the attention of the whole world, and it is not impossible to be suspected of being the owner of the book if it is unlucky.In this way, no matter which literary giant is set, it will inevitably be exposed.After all, there are several guys with ridiculously high intelligence in this world. If they reveal something that can be used, it will really be over. '

'I only intend to privately view some of the selected works as examples and incentives for the intended writers who are ready to be seduced, and I do not intend to circulate any of them on a large scale.In the final analysis, literature will reflect the soil environment in which it grows. In this world, even the same person cannot write the same work, and it is dangerous to be discovered. '

'Speaking of which, I am not playing the role of a literary giant to save the literary world, but playing the role of an editor to save the literary world. Thinking of this, Chi Zhi couldn't help but smile.

[In this case, I wish you a smooth mission. 】
