Start By Becoming A Mangaka
chapter-138

"Hahaha, this Sonoko will treat you to everything here," Sonoko was really happy to see him being rejected.

"Sonoko!!" Ran thought that Sonoko was too much.

Yuuki could only shake his head, "Well, why are you here?" He didn't fix the misunderstanding, after all, he didn't confess and it was only practice.

"We came because we heard that the pianist in this cafe is great but we didn't expect you're the pianist," Ran said, "but your song is great, I really like that song."

"Really, that's good," Yuuki said.

"Are you going to enter the'Amateur Music Tournament'?" Sonoko asked. This tournament was really popular among many band or singer newcomer in this industry. If they could win in this tournament, they would become popular in instant. That was why many people knew this tournament.

Yuuki nodded and started to tell him about his plan to enter this tournament. He also told them that he and Yukari were only a duet partner and they were practicing.

"What? You're only practice?" Sonoko felt disappointed that he didn't receive a rejection for real. "But we'll come to cheer you on at that time!" She said both of her friends were gonna enter this tournament as their friends. She would show them her support.

"Yes, we'll come to cheer you up," Ran also quite excited.

Then he started to introduce them to everyone in Hitotose. They liked to have new friends after all. He said goodbye and went back to his mom. His mood was quite complicated now. He needed legs and thighs to cure himself.

"I'm home," Yuuki entered his apartment but stopped with an afraid expression on his face.

"Welcome home," Utaha greeted him with a kitchen knife in her hand.

"Why did you bring a kitchen knife?" Yuuki didn't want to be stabbed dead.

"Hmm, we decided to cook a dinner for you, Ranko is in the kitchen, I brought a new knife since the old one is broken," Utaha said with a smile her expression didn't match with her action. She looked quite scared while holding a knife in her hand.

Yuuki sighed and decided to wait for them. Even though he was quite afraid, he was quite happy that they prepared his dinner.

They finished their preparation and ate together.

"Let's eat!" They started to eat together.

"Is Eriri coming today?" Yuuki asked.

Utaha nodded, "That girl is coming all the time."

Yuuki had told her not to publish their manga first. His Kengan match with Nogi would start in a few days and he would get a shounen jump from him.

It was better to publish his manga together with Eriri there.

Eriri also didn't show any rejection when she heard their manga would be published in Shounen Jump, after all, Shounen jump was quite popular even though there weren't any good manga now.

They talked about Utaha's light novel since she was ready to publish it. He would bring her to his company to meet Machida there.

Her light novel title is'Love Metronome'. It was the story of the romance between one boy and two girls. He had read it and in his opinion, it was quite similar to'White Album 2' that he had watched in the past but her work was definitely excellent.

Utaha was also quite happy that she would start her debut.

They talked for a while until they heard the sound of a bell.

DINGDONG

"I'll get it," Yuuki stood up.

"Is it Eriri?" Ranko was also curious.

"It can be Tsubasa," Utaha said.

They walked together and opened the door.

Ranko and Utaha were dumbfounded and screaming, "Kyaaa!!!"

In front of them was a man with around 190 cm tall and a really huge body. He was also wounded and had a lot of bandages on his body. They hid behind Yuuki's because they were scared.

Yuuki sighed but also worried at him, "What's wrong, Komada?"

"Young master," Komada bowed his head and smiled lightly.

Yuuki looked at his girls, "Wait inside, I'll talk with him."

"I-is that really okay?" Utaha was looking at the big man in front of him.

"It's okay, he is my dad's subordinates," Yuuki said.

"Hurry up and back!" Ranko didn't want to meet this big guy.

"Don't worry," Yuuki said and looked toward Komada. He looked at his body who was full of bandages and his broken hand. He frowned, "Can you tell me what happened?"

Komada nodded and said, "I've been beaten by a young man a few days ago."

"Then?" Yuuki asked.

"That young man will become your opponent during your kengan match," Komada said. "Be careful he is very strong."

Yuuki nodded, he knew that Komada was worried about him for his next kengan match in a few days. He took something from his pocket and gave it to him.

"This is?" Komada looked at a strange beverage in his hand. It looked like an energy drink.

"Drink it, it'll make you recover faster," Yuuki said.

Komada didn't think much and drank it. He suddenly felt his body felt more energized and he didn't feel hurt, "Thank you, young master." He knew this thing wasn't cheap.

"Don't worry, I'll win that match and tell dad not to worry about me," Yuuki said to him.

"Yes, I'll tell that to Oyabun," Komada bowed his head and went back.

Yuuki knew who his opponent was. Oh, he couldn't help but want to hurry up and fight his opponent. He shook his head and calmed himself.

He entered his house and saw that both Utaha and Ranko were waiting anxiously at him.

"Tell me, what is happening?" Utaha was anxious.

Yuuki told them everything about his opponent in the kengan match and Komada's injuries.

Utaha and Ranko became worried. They had seen how big Komada was and the person who could beat him was probably bigger than him.

"Don't fight!" Ranko didn't want her boyfriend to die.

Utaha didn't say anything but her eyes told him everything.

Yuuki shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'll be the winner, believe in your man."

They were still worried but he didn't want to talk about it anymore. He brought them to the bed to shut them up.

Sometimes women shouldn't get involved in the matter of men.
