Chapter 155 Gold Future Cup 1 (1/2)

Yuuki looked at six people in front of him. He looked Tsubasa who was excited and Ruki who was nervous. He couldn't blame her since in front of them were quite a famous mangaka in Shounen Jump and they were mangaka from Gongon Weekly.

”Well, Niizuma, can you introduce them?” Yuuki asked.

”That's right, caw! All of them is my friend! The long-haired one is Fukuda-san! The chubby one is Nakai-san! And the only girl is Aoki ko-san!” Niizuma said while opened his hands wide.

”Niizuma-kun, who are they?” Fukuda looked at Yuuki, Ruki, and Tsubasa.

Mashiro and Takagi knew the identity of three people in front of them but it was different for Fukuda, Nakai, and Aoki. They didn't know about it and quite curious since they saw Mashiro, Takagi, and Niizuma looked very courteous.

Shinta Fukuda is a main supporting character in Bakuman.

Yuriko Aiko is a supporting character and mangaka in Bakuman. She uses Ko Aoki as her pen name in Jump to avoid crowds of fans.

Takuro Nakai is a Mangaka under Shueisha. For the latter of his career, he maintained a living as an assistant to other Mangakas.

Yuuki knew who they were but he didn't say anything. He looked at Yuriko and didn't expect she was very cute.

”EHEM!! Let me introduce you to the three people in front of you! CAW!! But I don't know the other 2!!” Niizuma said with dramatic way. He pointed his finger at Yuuki, ”He is the famous Yuuki-sensei!!”

When Niizuma introduced him Yuriko, Nakai and Fukuda looked very startled. They would never expect to meet Yuuki-sensei.

Fukuda took out something from his pant and gave it to him, ”PLEASE, GIVE ME A SIGN!!”

Yuuki didn't expect him to be his fans. He nodded at him and gave him a signature.

”Hmm, I've some questions, can I ask you?” Takagi who had been silent raised his hand.

”Well, it depends on the questions though,” Yuuki said.

Takagi adjusted his glasses and asked, ”Are you also the writer of 'Sword Art Online'?” He had heard that Yuuki who was the one who wrote it but he still wanted to confirm it from the person in front of him.

Yuuki didn't think it was a secret and nodded at him, ”Yeah, I'm the one who writes it.”

”Caw, caw, that light novel is awesome, Yuuki-sensei!” Niizuma stood up and said with a strange pose. He tried to mimic Kirito's technique with both of his manga pen.

Fukuda was still happy with the signature he got from Yuuki. Nakai was overwhelmed with the pressure in this store but Yuriko looked curiously at both girls beside Yuuki. She was wondering if they were also a fellow mangaka. It was her first time to meet girl's mangaka and younger than her at that.

”Umm, can I ask who are they?” Yuriko was also wondering if one of them were his girlfriend.

Yuuki looked at both Tsubasa and Ruki. He asked whether it was fine to introduce them about their real identity in the mangaka world.

Tsubasa was fine since her name was quite cool but she was actually quite afraid that she would disappoint her reader if they knew she was actually a woman. She drew a Shounen manga which most of them being drawn by a male. She hung her head and noticed someone patted her head.

”Don't worry, I'm sure, they'll be happy to see you,” Yuuki said to encourage her.
