Short Story 3: Surprisingly, Hikigaya Hachiman’s study methods aren’t wrong.

The Culture Festival came to an end and just as it was about to reach the height of autumn, the chilly open air also found its way to the interior of the Service Club room. And the cause of that was the “Chiba Prefecture Problem Consultation Mails”.

Today as well, we were sent a worthless mail. The one reading it, Yuigahama, raised a small voice with an “uwah”.

<Pen Name: Master Swordsman Shogun-san’s Problem>

[Hachiman-sensei… I want to write a sellable light novel (shaky voice).]

Listening to Yuigahama reciting the mail aloud was Yukinoshita who spoke to me without closing her book.

“Hikigaya-kun. It looks like you’re being requested.”

Thank you for requesting me! I’m Hachiman♪(Side☆Peace)!

If I didn’t force myself to be energetic internally, I thought my heart was going to break. Couldn’t you designate this to a domain so it could be rejected or something? With irritation and anger at the darkness of the IT world, I typed my answer slightly violently.

<The Service Club’s Answer>

[There are four components to a selling light novel: “The first is illustrations, the second is its label, the third and fourth doesn’t exist, and the fifth is force your way through.” This is what I think personally. So using the aforementioned as a start, please try your best.]

Yukinoshita read the answer in one pass as her eyes narrowed dubiously. She then cocked her head in puzzlement.

“Where should the author put his effort into…?”

“Either the third or fourth one, right?”

When I answered, having read the mail as if looking at something fishy in the same way as Yukinoshita, Yuigahama raised her face.

“…Is it okay if you just leave that blank?”

“If it’s just to sell something, then it’s fine to keep it blank. The mail asked how for a ‘sellable light novel’ and not an ‘interesting light novel’. They’re not always equal in all cases.”

When I said that, Yuigahama let out an impressed voice with a “wow” while Yukinoshita slightly nodded her head convincingly. Indeed, something that was sellable and something that was interesting was not the same thing. That’s why I love it man! GaGaGa Novels! I’m looking forward to the work where I won’t have to fret over it selling!

As if she was feeling good from one incident being done, rather, the incident that she didn’t want to bother with, Yukinoshita unusually began reading the next mail.

“So, next one then? From a resident of Chiba, Pen Name: It’s not like I need to write my name since it’s a consultation-san.”

<Pen Name: It’s not like I need to write my name since it’s a consultation-san’s Problem> [My little brother’s taking the entrance exam for high school this year, so I want to know some efficient study methods]

The straight to the point content and the sharp pen name, not to mention it was about the little brother. Somehow, a really familiar face was popping up in my head.

“Yukinoshita, you’re pretty good with this, right?”

When I asked her, Yukinoshita placed her hand on her chin and began thinking.
