Is this mangaka crazy?

As soon as these words came out, all the "Edgerunners" present were moved.

"Clap clap clap——!"

At first, there was scattered applause, but soon the manga fans present began to applaud one after another.

Gradually, all the manga fans present applauded, and the applause was as loud as thunder.

Ren's answer convinced them. At first, everyone thought that the cyberpsychosis setting was very strange and unreasonable.

It was enough to just think of it as a virtual setting drawn by Ren as an excuse for the 'knife'.

But after Ren said this, they felt that the existence of cyberpsychosis was reasonable and possible.

Perhaps when humans truly reach the age where they can transform their bodies at will, mental illnesses like cyberpsychosis will indeed be born.

But that would be... too terrible.

So we must not allow such a terrible future to arrive!

"Thank you all, and thank you for the applause from the fans present."

After the applause, the host said with a smile: "Thank you very much for Amamiya-sensei's answer. Next, I will answer the editor, Ayumi."

"Excuse me, what kind of person is Amamiya-sensei usually, according to Ayumi?"

He said with a smile: "I believe everyone is also curious about what Amamiya-sensei is like in normal times, right?"

Suddenly, the fans present were eager to know what kind of person Ren would be like in Ayumi's words.

Ayumi said: "Amamiya-sensei is a very powerful genius. Whether it's drawing manga or in other aspects, he's very good."

"Oh, really? Could you tell me what specifically?"

"Amamiya-sensei cooks deliciously, and he's also good with computers and creating video games. Furthermore, he sings very well," Ayumi replied.

"What is Amamiya-sensei's personality like?" the host asked again.

"Although he is sometimes not serious... not serious, he is a very kind and considerate person most of the time," Ayumi said.

Upon hearing this, the fans below almost burst into laughter, and they all said:

"What the editor means is that Silverhand is not normal in normal times."

"Without a doubt, Silverhand is a mental patient."

"Intermittent attacks, right? Very good, Silverhand is a cyberpsycho."

"But I didn't expect Silverhand to be so incredible. He's good with computers and creating video games, and he can draw manga. If it's true, it's really amazing."

"I think, in the editor's eyes, he probably knows how to play video games on the computer and is good with computers and creating video games."

"It's very funny; it's actually possible."

...

Then, the host asked a few more questions, and the interview session was finally about to end.

But at the end of the interview, the host said: "Well, today's interview is almost over, and the "Edgerunners" autograph session will begin soon."

"But I heard that Amamiya-sensei has two last things to share with the manga fans present."

"Amamiya-sensei, please announce."

The host looked at Ren, who immediately nodded. To the gaze of all the manga fans, he said: "After finishing Edgerunners, my latest work, Chainsaw Man, will be released soon and will also be serialized in Manga World Gogo. Please look forward to it!"

"There will also be the animation of Edgerunners and the spin-off game Cyberpunk 2077. Please support them."

"At the same time, I hope to give you a special gift. There will be news in about half a year. Please look forward to it!"

As soon as these words came out, they generated heated discussions among manga fans.

After finishing Edgerunners, Ren published a new serialized work called... Chainsaw Man? It's worth looking forward to!...

and the subsequent promotion of Edgerunners animation and Cyberpunk 2077 also piqued the curiosity of manga fans.

But what most piqued the curiosity of manga fans was the special gift Ren mentioned at the end for manga fans...

What exactly was it about? But now they couldn't get more information from Ren. The interview session ended, and the most important part of the book signing session arrived: the book signing itself.

Ren then began to sign for the first fan of "Edgerunners".

This fan was obviously very excited. He held the single volume of "Edgerunners" in his hand, and his face reflected excitement.

After all, he had arrived in line early in the morning.

"Hello, Amamiya-sensei, I'm a loyal fan of "Edgerunners". I've been reading it since the first installment...", he said excitedly.

Upon hearing this, Ren gave this enthusiastic fan a kind and warm smile, took the single volume of "Edgerunners" he had handed over, and opened the page to sign with his pseudonym.

However, as he smiled at him, his face instantly froze.

The manga fans behind him also saw Ren's strange smile and couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow! What a healthy and cheerful smile!"

"This smile... if he were a normal person, I'd eat him up!"

"Very good, it once again fits my stereotype of Silverhand, the old rogue, as a mental patient."

"Is Amamiya-sensei really healthy...? I suggest you thoroughly investigate his mental state."

However, Ren ignored these comments. He considered it necessary and appropriate to smile kindly at the manga fans who supported him.

So, under his peculiar smile, he began to sign autographs.

Although Ren's smile was truly strange, it failed to contain the fans' enthusiasm.

"'Edgerunners' is very good, and Amamiya-sensei, your drawing skill is also impressive. May I ask how you learned to draw?"

"Wuwuwu Silverhand, old rogue, I hate you. You're so cruel to people. Could you be kinder?"

"Amamiya-sensei, could you please help me write to my favorite, Suzuki-san? My boyfriend is a fan of yours, and he happened to be on a business trip and didn't have time to come to this book signing..."

"Amamiya-sensei, could you take a picture with me?"

...

The enthusiastic fans asked Ren to sign autographs for an entire afternoon, and his wrists ached a little.

But, fortunately, when Ren obtained the [Spiritual Flash (Platinum)] skill earlier, he also obtained the [Fall-Resistant King (Gold)] skill.

This greatly improved his physical condition and tolerance, so it was still acceptable.

Ren was always very patient, and today's book signing finally ended after he signed for the last fan.
