Start By Becoming A Mangaka
Chapter 124: Partner

When Ruriko said she would train him thoroughly. She didn't tell a joke, she had a serious expression on her face and kept training him.

"Your facial expression is too stiff!!"

"You need to become the wolf!!"

"You have to think how to make the little red riding hood become yours!!"

"That's an expression!! That's perfect!! You really look like a bad guy!!"

"Good!! You need to practice more!!"

Yuuki didn't have time to complain. He was focusing all his attention to learn about acting. He didn't mind to learn another skill since there was a genius who was training him. It was several times better than the time he did a self-learning. Having a teacher made him progress faster.

Yuuki shrugged his shoulders and kept learning until he was called by someone.

KNOCK

Everyone turned their heads and saw Uomi was standing in front of the door.

"Can I take him? I need him to do something," Uomi said while pointing her finger at him.

"Oh, Uomi, is it the time?" Yuuki wiped the sweat on his forehead.

"Yeah, you almost spent your entire lunch at this club," Uomi looked quite resentful.

"Well, I learned a lot from Ruriko, she is a very great teacher," Yuuki praised her and crouched down in front of her, "I'm going back, I'll come back tomorrow to learn more."

Ruriko nodded at him, "You need to come tomorrow, ok?"

Yuuki nodded and he said goodbye to everyone. He walked toward Uomi to visit this beautiful 3rd year. He was quite curious about this girl since both Uomi and Hiratsuka had told him that she was very cute.

They walked together until they arrived in her classroom.

"That's her," Uomi said.

Yuuki looked at the classroom and noticed a beautiful girl with glasses and long blonde hair. He saw her reading an English book.

"Well, she is cute," Yuuki said.

Uomi didn't say anything and looked at him without any expression.

"What?" Yuuki felt creepy being gazed at like that.

"Onee-chan isn't happy you are looking at another girl!!" Uomi said while pouting.

Yuuki twitched his lips and said, "Onee-chan, let's go, we don't have time to talk about this," he walked inside the class but Uomi pulled his hand, "What?"

Uomi was excited, "What did you just call me?"

"Uomi, let's go?" Yuuki said with a puzzlement.

"No!! Before that!! Repeat it again!!" Uomi wanted to be called 'Onee-chan' again.

"Uomi, let's talk about that later, I'll call you that after we finish this problem, okay?" Yuuki said.

Uomi nodded, "Sure, Onee-chan will work for her little brother," she walked in front of him and muttered, "Hehehe, an i.n.c.e.s.t's play isn't bad."

Yuuki tried to ignore her since it would become very troublesome if he reacted to all of her antics.

They walked toward Yukari who was reading a book.

Yukari had noticed them since they were talking quite loudly in the outside of the classroom.

"Can I help you, Kaichou?" Yukari had known this Uomi since the 1st year.

"Yukari, can you join this 'Amateur Music Tournament'?" Uomi suddenly showed them fliers.

Yukari bowed her head, "I'm sorry, Kaichou but I'm planning to focus on the study during my last year of high school, I can't enter this tournament."

Uomi was stunned. She didn't expect her invitation to be refused but her reason was understandable since Yukari was in her 3rd year.

Yukari Kohinata is the heroine of Futsū no Joshikōsei ga LocoDol Yattemita. Yukari has blond hair and blue eyes.

The atmosphere was quite strange since this rejection no one said anything until they heard his voice.

"Yukari-san, is it?" Yukari looked at the young man beside Kaichou.

"Yes, are you Yuuki?" Yukari asked.

Yuuki was stunned, "Do you know me?"

Yukari shook her head, "Everyone in the school knows about you, it's quite normal since you're quite famous."

Yuuki rubbed his nose and felt embarrassed, he looked at the English book at her table, "Are you planning to continue your study abroad?"

Yukari nodded, "Yes, I'm planning to enter Standford."

Yuuki nodded, "Why did you go there?"

"Well, I want to revive this school and my hometown, that's why I decided to study abroad," Yukari said.

Yuuki felt this girl was very suitable for his partner, "Do you have a plan? After you finish your study, how can you revive both of this school and your hometown?"

"That..." Yukari didn't know. She had never thought about it. She didn't know how to solve this problem.

"Have you heard about the fans effect?" Yuuki asked.

"Fans effect?" Yukari was puzzled.

"Yes, if you win this tournament, you'll be able to get a lot of fans and you'll be able to promote both this school and your hometown," Yuuki explained, "Your words will have a lot of weight and you'll be able to save both of this school and hometown."

Yukari was stunned and had never thought about anything like this.

"I'm also quite good at English, I can become your conversation practice partner, besides you'll lose nothing, you can make a great memory in high school," Yuuki added a fire. He wanted her to be his partner in this tournament.

Yukari thought for a while. She didn't have many friends in her high school life and besides studied. Her high school life was quite dull. She also wanted some excitement in her life and this plan also helped her to save both of this school and her hometown.

She was silent for a while and bowed her head, "Please, take care of me from now on, Yuuki." She had decided to make a memory in her last high school year.

"Great, take care of me too, Yukari," Yuuki smiled.

Uomi who was by their side felt quite uncomfortable. She had been rejected by her and this guy could invite her effortlessly. She grumbled but didn't say anything at least their plan to make Yukari join this plan had already been succeeded.
