How To Live As A Writer In A Fantasy World chapter 457

I vote for the illustration in the announcement! Please participate a lot!

*****

I looked at the man in front of me with a bewildered expression on his face. Maybe he’s embarrassed by the unexpected call, and he rolls his eyes and can’t make eye contact.

I put my hands together in some places and put them on my legs, and I could see a drop of cold sweat running down my cheek in tension.

The overall appearance is truly ‘Mario’ itself. A unique mustache and a round and innocent face overall.

Even the dress is suspenders, so it really resembles Mario. The hat is similar to the bread hat that painters would wear.

This man’s name is Carls Zvassa. Since participating in the Xenon Festival a year ago, he is one of the painters who is rapidly gaining fame.

The person who drew the famous ‘hectopascal kick’ in the composition I wanted. It was so impressive that I even mentioned his name in the letter.

After mentioning it, all kinds of artists and nobles came to me. I didn’t hear it at the time, but I only found out after I found it.

“Your name is… Carls Zvassa. Right?”

“Yes, yes! That, yes.”

When I asked the confirmation car, Carls answered with a trembling voice. It looks like a private soldier facing the division commander.

Now that my reputation is skyrocketing, such a reaction is natural in a way.

It’s a situation you’ll have to get used to in the future, but it’s still awkward. People don’t change overnight, because they have a civic mind.

Much less, perhaps because of the influence of a previous life, it was not in my temper for a person older than me to bend his back excessively.

Of course, if the other person is not polite, the same will come out, but not Carls. You may have to work with him, so be on an equal footing.

“You don’t have to be nervous. You can treat me comfortably.”

“Go, thank you.”

Even if I say this, it will be difficult for Carls to treat me easily. Perhaps this atmosphere will continue for a while.

Just as my mention of his name is enough to boost my fame like crazy, vice versa.

So, from Carls’ point of view, he has to be careful with every word he says.

“How have you been? I heard you’ve been pretty busy since the Xenon Festival a year ago.”

“Ah, yes! Yes! Thanks to Zenon-sama for mentioning my work, I feel so relaxed. How can I express this grace…”

“It’s up to grace…”

The tension was brief, and my eyes lit up in an instant, and Carls gave a thank-you message, and I burst into laughter.

It is true that my name is known by mentioning him. However, the success of the game after that is solely up to him.

Upon investigation, it was found that he was using a somewhat unique style of painting that was different from the current era.

The present can be seen as the Renaissance period, but most of the paintings also show a similar style of painting in that period.

However, Carls’ paintings were somewhat far from it. I have to say that it is a very familiar figure to my eyes with memories of a previous life.

Although there is a difference in the use of paints and brushes, it is a drawing that really suits ‘illustration’.

‘Did you say that other painters looked down on you?’

Despite the fame that my comments have made, Carls’ paintings are far from modern art. A painting that could develop popularly, but was insufficient to gain fame as an artist.

Crucially, he doesn’t paint first, and instead of being evaluated by others, he draws on a commission first.

In other words, he is an illustrator in his past life, that is, a person who is close to an ‘illustrator’.

Because of this, there are secretly many people who ignore Carls, saying that it reduces the value of art.

Whether Carls himself is aware of this, he doesn’t say anything and is just drawing. Instead, there is no shortage economically as demand is certain.

“Mr. Carls is different from other painters, doesn’t he paint on commission?”

“Yes. Unlike other people, I have a lack of artistic sense….”

Carls smirked and scratched his head. Because of his appearance, he exudes the feeling of a pure country man.

It’s not that the artist doesn’t accept commissions. Why don’t nobles or royalty invite famous painters for portraits?

But, except for those cases, most of them prefer ‘art’. Like Carls, there are almost no cases of outsourcing.

I don’t know if it was like that in my previous life, but at least I know it wasn’t like that in 1900.

The anecdote that Hitler made a living only through paintings, not anyone else, was very famous. The most important thing is to miss the beauty school.

“Instead, are you confident in expressing the characters and situations? If you give them a sufficient amount and explanation.”

“Yes that’s right.”

“Can you tell me what you drew after the Hectopascal Kick?”

A single hectopascal kick doesn’t test his skills. The composition, characters, and expressions were all perfect pictures.

To be honest, just looking at that picture, it was so close that I wondered if there was a reincarnation like me.

“As you might expect, most of the requests related to Xenon’s biography were related. Apparently, Xenon-sama directly mentioned it, so I was very interested in it.”

“For example, what kind of scene?”

“The end of Sakran, reminiscences of Kair’s past, the awakening of Jin, etc. Too many words to say.”

I just don’t know how to put it into words. But that doesn’t mean you can’t bring back a painting that someone has already purchased.

In case this happens, I asked him to show me the pictures I’ve drawn so far, that is, my portfolio.

Although there is no concept of a portfolio yet, it will not be difficult to prepare because there are still some things I drew for my boredom.

And as I expected, Carls started showing me the pictures he had prepared in advance one by one.

“This······”

“It’s a steam locomotive. It was already mentioned in Xenon’s biography, but I supplemented it.”

The steam locomotive was definitely the one that caught my eye while demonstrating the skills I had expected. A picture several times more advanced than that described in Zeno’s biography.

I attached the steam locomotive illustration for the reader’s understanding, but there were many things that were lacking because I was an amateur.

However, Carls supplemented this and created a more touching picture. The smoky smoke from the chimney and the wheels returning to the steam engine.

With my poor drawing skills, I can’t keep up with it, and it’s just the format I want.

“And this is not…”

As I was admiring the steam locomotive, Carls, who was about to pull out another picture, paused and put it back.

But do you know that it was more conspicuous? I put the painting down for a moment and told Carls.

“What picture is that?”

“It’s kind of inappropriate to show right now…”

“It’s okay, so please show me.”

“·······”

Maybe my words sounded like pressure, but Carls hesitated and pulled out the picture with difficulty. I accepted the picture without much thought.

Then I realized why he had put the picture back.

“·······”

“Large. Big.”

As I was stunned and unable to say anything, Adelia, who was standing behind me, vomited an embarrassing cough.

Carls is only manipulating his mustache without making eye contact with me.

If you’re wondering why you’re showing these reactions, it’s because of the picture I’m looking at right now.

It was a picture of Jin and Lily’s first night. Lily’s naked body, seen from Jin’s point of view, is depicted.

Golden hair spreads lusciously on the bed. There was a slight blush on her cheek, perhaps embarrassed, but her gaze was directed to the front.

Finally, one hand barely covered her voluptuous breasts, and the other rested on the bed.

Naturally, secret secrets are exposed defenselessly. Anyone can see the new bride looking forward to the first night.

‘······The real age is wrong.’

Carls’ paintings are a mixture of real life and cartoon style. As you know, this type of drawing is a technique that appears only a few times later.

What’s even more amazing is that all of this was drawn only with brushes and paints. I don’t even have a computer or tablet, but it’s really amazing to draw such a masterpiece (?).

I don’t know much about painting, but at least it’s definitely a case of the wrong time.

“Mr. Carls.”

“I’m sorry. If you were offended by any chance…”

“Since when did Carls start using this style of painting?”

“Yes?”

Carls didn’t try to apologize, but widened his eyes. I guess I’m not going to get angry.

I gently placed the picture next to it (I turned it over in case I didn’t know) and opened my mouth with a soft voice.

“It’s hard to find a style like Carls. I’m asking because I’m curious where you learned it.”

“Rather than learning, I did it from the beginning. As I said before, I lack originality compared to others. Especially when I can’t draw a real thing properly, I feel uncomfortable. That’s why I touch it a little.”

“Isn’t that originality?”

“Is that right? Other artists said they lack originality…”

Carls let out a foolish laugh as if he didn’t even understand my praise. I looked at him and nodded.

As culture, more precisely, popular culture such as cartoons, novels, and animations, develops, Carls’ drawing style will be more preferred.

But the problem is that now is not the time. It must have been difficult to spotlight even as it was several hundred years ahead.

If I had been reincarnated here and further wrote Zeno’s biography, I would have been buried as a mere painter.

‘I thought we would meet sooner.’

I would have put an appropriate illustration in every volume of Xenon’s biography, but it’s really disappointing. It is a mistake to treat the hectopascal kick as a coincidence.

It doesn’t matter if you draw a large picture, it’s enough to make it smaller using the reduction magic. Then just print and you’re done.

Yajal I saw earlier… No, no. If you look at the picture, you can see that it is very delicate. just the person i wanted

‘But the characters and situations are strictly different. You should keep this in mind.’

In World War II, the characters are also characters, but the expression of the situation is important. Legions of tanks across the land and fighters fighting fiercely in the sky.

Finally, a fierce naval battle unfolds over the vast sea. It remains to be seen if Carls can express all of this.

Fortunately, I can draw the draft. The draft is supplemented and the illustration is drawn.

“Then I should get right to the point. Actually, the reason I called Mr. Carls was nothing else but a request. It’s similar to what you’ve been receiving so far, but it’s different.”

“What’s the difference…?”

Was it because I asked for it, who is praised as Xenon? Carls asked quietly with a look full of surprise and curiosity.

Receiving a request is enough as long as the contract is good. But when he heard that it was different, he seemed to feel something.

I looked at his face, which was almost like Mario himself, no matter how I looked at it, and drew out an answer.

“I don’t know if you know, but I’m planning to do another work in the future. But it’s a completely different world, so illustrations, or drawings, are essential. Remember the steam locomotive I put in Xenon’s biography?”

“Sure.”

“It’s similar to that. Drawings to enhance the reader’s understanding.

“······Yes?”

Perhaps he finally understood, Mario, no, Carls’ eyes widened. It’s a request, but in fact, it’s the same as asking us to work together.

“I can draw the draft and send it to you. The draft is a kind of skeleton, so Mr. Carls just attaches the flesh.”

“If that’s the case, Zenon-sama is doing it himself…”

“No. I’m not very good at drawing. The steam locomotive was pretty easy because it was almost like a structure.”

In case u have any questions u can refer to uwumtl dot com for references

My drawing skills cannot be said to be good with empty words. Even if it’s not up to the level of graffiti, it’s not even an amateur.

Even if you can roughly draw features like that, that’s just that. If that was the case, I would have attached an illustration to each volume.

The same goes for characters. To be honest, the face is fine, but the body is just a log.

“So I want Mr. Carls to paint instead. Because Mr. Carls’ style of painting is just right, and furthermore, it is suitable for what he is doing. If it were someone else, I would have dragged him.”

“If it was Zenon-sama’s request, anyone would have accepted…?”

“The only sure thing is that it’s Mr. Carls. So are you going to accept it?”

“·······”

Carls listened to my question and looked as if he was in trouble. It seems to be complicated by the way he gently pulls his mustache.

I glanced at Adelia from behind as he organized his thoughts. At my glance, she nodded and brought the items she had prepared in advance.

And while things were being prepared, Carls quietly opened his mouth as if he had just organized his thoughts.

“·······I’m sorry, but it seems difficult to accept.”

“Why? Maybe I’m a burden or something like that?”

“It’s not that it’s realistically difficult. Zenon-nim publishes a new book almost every ten days? They give you a draft, but even following it seems daunting.”

“Hmm.”

I nodded at his reasonable explanation. It is unclear whether his work speed will be able to keep up.

“Then how many days will it take if there is a draft?”

“A week at the earliest. If you are free, it will take about a week.”

what. you’re so fast In a world without computers and tablets, that’s ridiculously fast.

The release speed of this work is expected to be a little slower than that of Xenon’s biography.

I had to explain the social and political situation of each country, not just the flow of war.

Not only that, but it also has to describe how people suffered because of the war, and furthermore, what war crimes were committed.

Even I can’t remember everything right now, so I have to get help from Mora. Naturally, the speed of work is inevitably slower than that of Xenon’s biography.

“It’s rather good. The writing speed of this work is going to be slower than that of Xenon’s biography. Don’t feel burdened.”

“Is that so? That’s a good thing. I’ll be happy to draw the picture Zenon-sama asked for.”

“Okay. Finally… Adele sister?”

As soon as I called, Adelia put a square box on the table. Carls’ gaze naturally turned toward the box.

It looks like an ordinary box from the outside, but I know what the object is inside.

Then, before opening the box, he asked softly while looking at Carls, who was bewildered.

“Mr. Carls.”

“Yes?”

“Mr. Carls, how much do you usually receive when you receive a quest?”

“It’s usually about 5 gold per sheet, but…”

In Korean Won, it is close to 50 million won. I did about that level of illustration in my previous life, so it’s at a reasonable level.

However, compared to Carls’ talent and ability, it is quite small. Again, he was born at the wrong time.

A monster that can create paintings that are as good as those of a previous life with only paint and brush. The picture placed neatly next to me revealed the measure of my skills.

“5 gold… It’s more expensive than I thought. Actually, I don’t have any cash to give right now.”

“Then what…”

As soon as those words came out, I opened the lid of the box. When the lid was opened, Carls’ gaze naturally turned to the box.

“How about gold bars instead?”

The thing in the box is nothing other than gold bars, not just one, but a large number of gold bars.

It was Adelia, so it was easy to carry, but an ordinary person would have to whine and bring it along.

Carls had an expression on his face as if his soul had gone out of the pile of shiny gold bars. A golden bar of gold reflected in his blue eyes like a mirror.

“I’m not giving you all these gold bars right away, because you have to sign a contract and have something to test.”

“·······”

“I’ll give you a draft and an explanation. Please complete the drawing within a fortnight. If you like it, you can take one of these gold bars. After you sign a formal contract… you’ll know. I believe.”

Even though artists are hungry professions.

“I will offer my allegiance.”

There is no business in front of money.

About a fortnight has passed since then…

[New protagonist, Adolf Hitler’s original painting appears!]

[A middle-aged man with a rather unique mustache. How will this man really save the world?]

[What does the mark on the arm mean? Most people say that he is expressing the group he belongs to…]

The original painting of Hitler prepared in advance for pre-release was distributed to the world. Naturally, people around the world showed interest.

[The unique mustache is gaining popularity. Even among the current nobles…]

[More and more people are trying to imitate the character who is supposed to be the main character…]

[The motif incident that started again? However, since this is a fantasy world that is different from Xenon’s biography, I don’t think it will have much effect.]

I poisoned the world.
