Chapter 286 - Chapter 286: Dobomejiro

"Siiigggh...… So tiresome…"

The Mejiro Mansion has tens of hallways and even more rooms. It's not unusual for the hallways to be so deserted at night, but tonight those hallways are desolate.

These desolate areas have become a refuge for people whose social battery has run out. One of them is Mejiro Dober.

The umamusume is wearing a dominantly white, sleeveless mermaid-style evening gown with a teal hem near her knees. For accessories, she only wears a teal ribbon as a choker on her neck.

I really am not cut out for a social party like this…

Mejiro Dober has attended plenty of gatherings in her life, but she never gets accustomed to talking with a lot of people. Her big sis Ramonu said that it comes naturally to her and she'd get better with more gatherings she attends, but Dober doesn't feel like that.

She feels as shit as at her first gathering.

The only place where Mejiro Dober can truly feel free to interact with others is when she is amongst herpeople: the Comic Market, or Comiket. There, she doesn't go as Mejiro Dober, but as Dobomejiro, the infamous Netorare artist.

*Ring* *Ring* *Ring*

"Oh?"

Dober carries 2 phones with her all the time. One is the phone for Mejiro Dober, and the other is the phone for Dobomejiro. The one that rang was the one for Dobomejiro.

The message was a confirmation that her doujinshi had been printed and was ready to be delivered wherever she wanted it to.

The Comiket is still a month or so away… If I told them to send it to my room at Tracen Academy, I don't want to deal with Taiki if she saw it…

I can't exactly send it here due to the distance to Tokyo and the obvious reason.

There's no other option but sending them to Digital Sensei's room.

If I were caught with those books, it would be disastrous, but no one would bat an eye if Digital Sensei's were found with those books.

With zero concern for her comrade's reputation, Mejiro Dober typed her comrade's room number at Tracen Academy.

Ehehehe~~ I'll be borrowing some space in your room for a bit, Digital Sensei.

The books that Dober has ordered to be printed were mostly spicy manga. In volume, 60% of it all is R-18 netorare doujinshi that she has been well known for. The rest of it is something else entirely.

In previous years' Comikets, Dobomejiro only sold R-18 doujinshi, but that has changed during the last Summer Comiket. Dobomejiro sold a proper manga-well, the start of one, at least. She was trying to gauge the market.

The setting is in the White-eye Kingdom, or more specifically, the White-eye Castle. The third princess, MyQueen, had been betrothed to an unknown prince with red hair and crimson eyes named Higo Eita.

At first, most of the princesses in the White-eye Dynasty don't understand why the third princess fell in love with him, but as everyone interacts with him, forbidden feelings begin to emerge inside all of their hearts. 

A feeling of wanting him all for themselves.

The main character of the manga is the sixth princess, Rejido Mober. A princess with androphobia who is confused as to why the prince doesn't trigger her irrational fear.

I can't believe it sold out…

When she first brought her new manga to the last Comiket, she wasn't expecting it to sell out, so she only printed a small amount. 

Boy was she wrong!!

She had promoted her original work on social media, but she wasn't expecting her loyal followers to immediately beelined to her stall just after the gate opened and buy it all.

Ugh… I should've prepared more…

Because of the small number in circulation, people who didn't get to buy the original work return to piracy as a way to read Dobomejiro's original work. Dober wants to be angry, but she couldn't blame anyone but herself when most of the comments on her pirated works are:

[Black_Company_Slave]: Man, I wish I could buy it!!!

[Cucked_Uma]: The art is so beautiful!! This cheap screen couldn't showcase it in its entirety!!

[Sixth_Sense]: Is it just me, or do the princesses look like the Mejiro girls?

[Firm_Ass_Lover]: I know Dobomejiro Sensei could draw men, but damn!!! She peaked at drawing the Prince!!!

[Sixth_Sense]: No, seriously. Princess MyQueen looks like Mejiro McQueen.

[Google_debunker]: @Sixth_Sense It's common knowledge that Dobomejiro Sensei uses actual people as inspiration for her manga. It makes them more realistic.

[Black_Company_Slave]: @Sixth_Sense There's a warning that states that any resemblance is just coincidental.

Mejiro Dober makes a note to ban the user with the name [Sixth_Sense] or take them out. She doesn't need someone too smart for their own good.

For this winter Comiket, 5% of her books are the first volume of her original work, while 15% are the second volume. For now, she has named the work 'My sister brought home an unknown prince and now everyone wants to have a piece of him. But will I want him too?'

Sigh… I have created 7 princesses, but I only know how to make him interact with 3 of them.

How would I design his relationship with the rest of the princesses?

Mejiro Dober is deep in thought as she brainstorms ideas for the third volume of her original works. As hard as she thought, she couldn't find any natural interaction between him and the rest of the princesses,

Until a particular young man's voice entered her ear.

"Palmer, stop running."
