Chapter 21: Utatane Koharu and Asuma
"Can I just say that nothing happened between us, and I'm still pure?!" Looking at the shameless Kakashi and Gai, Hikari decided to defend his innocence.
Maito Gai nodded with a face full of agreement. "Don't worry, no one is doubting your purity."
Kakashi sat up, his eyes gleaming as he looked at Hikari. "Hikari, Gai told me about your identity. I've collected every single one of your masterpieces. When are you releasing the next one?"
Urging for an update.
"It's not that I don't want to update, but I've been lacking inspiration recently. So, you know how it is!" Hikari casually made up an excuse.
Inspiration was something that didn't exist for him at all.
Back when he debuted with the book 'The Pure Maiden' his mind was filled with countless classic stories.
But Hikari himself was quite lazy. He mostly followed Jiraiya's release schedule, publishing whenever there was a hype, using the opportunity to gain some recognition.
Later on, he didn't even need to do that anymore. As the only author who could compete with Jiraiya in the shinobi world, known as 'Holy Light', Kamizuki Hikari was confident that the moment his work was released, people would rush to grab it.
However, by that point, he had already earned enough and lacked the motivation to continue writing.
So, things naturally got delayed.
