Obviously, this internet
Altair
was Zhao Youyue. Not only did she post the HD illustration of Su Li in the forum, she also added,
I loved your creation, it allowed me to experience all sorts of amazing fantasy worlds, can I add you as a friend, I’m a loyal fan.
Zhao Youyue was very satisfied with the illustration that Su Li drew, the silver-haired girl in her fancy military uniform resembles her appearance in the literary world, Su Li had even brought out her conflicted and mysterious temperament in the drawing.
Since this illustration would already satisfy Zhao Youyue, imagine
Setsuna’s
expression when she saw this drawing. The last sentence in
Altair’s
reply, surprised her the most; she was her first fan ever since she started writing.
Setsuna
was a writer who was without talent. Her literature would never be on the same frequency as the readers. It would never reach anybody’s heart, the reviews and comments on her work would be,
obscure,
I knew every word, but they do not come together to form meaning in a traditional sense,
Weird,
Not interesting at all.
Many readers did hop in to read her work, but none could ever persist and become her fan, ever!
To her, creating literature was a single player game, only for her own entertainment purposes.
But today, someone had actually said that she was a loyal reader and a fan, and had even posted an illustration of her main protagonist!
This illustration had proven everything.
The female character in this illustration was the mirror image of the person
Setsuna’s
mind. Even her temperament was strikingly similar! At that moment,
Setsuna
knew that this was a real fan, a fan who took her literary work seriously and understood the main protagonist.
That’s right; it was all thanks to Zhao Youyue that Su Li was able to draw the
Military Uniform Princess,
Altair
perfectly. Other than compiling information about this character, she had even described the character in detail to Su Li.
To Zhao Youyue,
Altair
was
her.
Of course, she would know everything about herself. As Su Li was drawing this illustration, she kept for real-time input from Zhao Youyue, resulting in the most accurate portrayal ever.
Su Li was an efficient worker. The fact that this character originated from another character allowed her to use that as a template. Basically, Su Li just needed to change the character’s hairstyle, eyes, and costume. Su Li could already draw an original character from scratch. Drawing a character based on another character would be a piece of cake.
This was why it only took her less than two days to complete the character illustration of
Altair
to near perfection.
After Su Li handed over the drawing to Zhao Youyue, she asked for her permission to post on her own Pixiv webpage and Weibo. She was very satisfied with the drawing. This awesome and attractive
Military Uniform Princess
had a mysterious charm. Her appearance spoke for itself, even though she knew nothing about this character’s background, personality, and ability.
But, her character appearance alone could attract many fans, even though no one would know whether she is good or evil, under all that mystery.
Of course, Zhao Youyue agreed, she also hoped that Su Li could help make this doujin novel a little more popular, what if people actually started liking it?
Some author would doggedly pursue in their art, even when the reception isn’t encouraging!
Zhao Youyue did not know what kind of author
Setsuna
was, but she knew that she would never change her ways, even if nobody reads her work, what kind of spirit was this?
She deserved every form of respect from every author in the same field, from her sheer patience alone!
In recent years, most authors would be impetuous, especially those who were just starting off in Qidian website. Some of the authors give up because they were not qualified to sign a contract with Qidian, while some give up because their work is received poorly. The worst kind of author would be those who had a decent subscription and a solid fanbase, yet choose to drop it, because they do not feel like not writing anymore, while being proud of doing so!
Setsuna
was just an average author whose talent had held back her passion. She would keep writing, even though she did not have a single reader, it was most commendable!
Zhao Youyue had successfully contacted
Setsuna
and was now her friend; she hoped to invite
Setsuna
out one day, and express the love she had for
Setsuna’s
fantasy worlds, because
Setsuna
had brought her to whole new worlds.
As the both of them were chatting,
Setsuna
told Zhao Youyue that she wanted to turn her novel into a doujin animated video. She knew that her limited talent only allowed her to convey so much, only an animation could express her literary work in its complete form.
Zhao Youyue agreed that it would be a great idea. After all, if it’s just a doujin video, she could use the music talent of
Chu Luoxun
to provide music in the video. As for additional costs, it could all be settled with money.
But Zhao Youyue did not know that it was actually the dying wish of
Setsuna.
Setsuna,
thought that it was a blessing from her beloved mysterious main protagonist, when Zhao Youyue stepped up to fulfill her final wish.
Just as Zhao Youyue and
Setsuna
were discussing about turning the novel into a doujin video, Su Li’s Weibo had started another wave of storm, because of the extreme response towards the illustration of
Altair
!
Of course, her illustrations have always been great; combined with the concept of a princess in a military uniform, and her mysterious, refined temperament, it was absolutely stunning!
Once again, Su Li was able to present the beauty of
Altair
in this gorgeous drawing!
But the aesthetics would not be the cause of the commotion. Rather, which author would be so unlucky as to get targeted by this accursed Su Li. Isn’t she aware of Su Li’s curse?
Misfortune would soon befall upon this
Military Uniform Princess!
Su Li had stated the source of this material, she told her fans that this character was the protagonist of a title called
White Clover,
with the subheading,
Altair: Divina Commedia,
a doujin novel that originated from a niche game,
Dreamside Maroon.
