Is this mangaka crazy?

Ren Amamiya heard Ayumi's voice on the phone: "Do you want "Edgerunners" to temporarily replace "Wan Shen Mo Kai" in weekly serialization?"

"Yes, Amamiya-sensei... Please prepare the serialized manuscript for the next episode of "Edgerunners". I will come to pick it up then."

Ayumi replied respectfully: "This week's manuscript payment will be paid together with the next one."

Ren Amamiya replied: "Okay, thank you for coming, Ayumi."

"It's not difficult."

Then they hung up the phone.

Ren Amamiya didn't take it to heart. He sorted out the plot for the sixteenth episode of "Edgerunners" and waited for Ayumi to come.

On the other hand, Yusuke Sato, author of the manga "Psychic Warlock", under the pseudonym Itchy Mouse, also learned the news.

"Okay, I know."

Yusuke Sato hung up the phone and tightened his grip on it.

His knuckles were slightly white at that moment, and the folding phone emitted a faint straining sound.

'If Edgerunners replaces Wan Shen Mo Kai in its weekly serialization slot, wouldn't it become more popular?' 'This is very unfair to him and the other two manga authors participating in the Newcomer Prize.'

Especially... the voting for the Newcomer Prize will start soon.

But what if it's unfair?

He has no manuscripts in his hands to compete with Edgerunners for the weekly serialization slot.

"Have I failed like this? What's the point of working so hard?" Yusuke Sato was confused, sitting decadently on the floor of his rented house with no trace of light.

And soon, manga fans following Akatsuki's official website and official media learned the news.

Many fans of Wan Shen Mo Kai expressed their regret and sent their condolences to manga author Kaito Nakamura.

Fans of Edgerunners felt sorry for manga author Kaito Nakamura of Wan Shen Mo Kai, but they also felt euphoric.

Finally, there's no longer a need to wait for "Edgerunners" to update every half month.

Now they can watch a new episode every week.

The popularity of Edgerunners is on the rise.

In the previous episode, the 15th, thanks to Lucy and David's kiss under the moon, the popularity survey jumped directly to sixth place!

That's why Takashi and a group of editors did not object to "Edgerunners" becoming a weekly series.

Wouldn't it be positive for "Edgerunners", which is already very popular, to replace the weekly series of "Wan Shen Mo Kai", whose popularity has almost halved?

In the Penguin group "Tokyo Science Fiction Lovers Group ①", which has gradually become an "Edgerunners" fan group,

some were eager to share their opinion.

The End of Science is Theology: "Oh my god! Did you see that this week's "Manga World Gogo" has a serialization of "Edgerunners"?"

Although Kenji Tanaka is working, that doesn't prevent him from relaxing.

He glanced at the group chat information, was stunned for a moment, and quickly typed.

Kenji Tanaka, scientist and engineer: "Huh? It's not updated every two weeks?"

He didn't pay attention to the announcement on the manga world's official website or the manga world's official media on other platforms.

Not just him, in fact, many fans of "Edgerunners" are like that.

Without paying attention to this, they naturally don't know that "Edgerunners" replaced "The Gods" in weekly serialization.

King of the Force: "Didn't you pay attention to the official website announcement? It said a mangaka took a sick leave, so "Edgerunners" became a weekly serialization."

Scientist and Engineer: "To be honest, I didn't know."

Scientist and Engineer added: "But that's great! I already see the new issue of "Edgerunners"!"

Kenji Tanaka's face was filled with excitement. He had decided to go back after work on Saturday to buy this issue of "Manga World Gogo" magazine.

Before, he bought it practically at random, only the one that contained the newly serialized issue of "Edgerunners".

Three days passed quickly.

Soon came the release time for the new issue of "Manga World Gogo".

Both manga fans who had already subscribed and those who had bought it at a newsstand or bookstore would find their favorite work and start reading the latest episode as soon as they received the magazine.

Kenji Tanaka was no exception. He sat in front of the computer desk, opened the latest serialized issue of "Edgerunners", and began to read.

This week's "Edgerunners" episode has been serialized up to episode number 16.

However, the plot of episode 16 is not a direct continuation of the kiss under the moon from episode 15.

Instead, it begins with a lightning flash.

David was a little surprised to see Pira's golden hand prosthetic.

Maine smiled and said: "How about it? Want to try it?"

David was speechless and replied: "I can't afford it."

"Rebecca said she could give it to you."

"No, thank you."

"I thought you didn't mind getting prosthetics from a corpse."

Maine thought David cared and then said: "Or is it because it originally belonged to someone you know?"

Immediately, the flashback of Pira's death appeared.

David's response was: "Isn't that what technical experts use?"

"What? So you're just being picky."

"I'm looking for something else," David replied.

"What is it?"

David looked sideways at Maine... the huge iron fist on his body.

Maine immediately reacted, looked at David, and said: "Are you talking about this?"

"It's bigger than you."

"It's not that exaggerated."

Seeing that David seemed to really like his prosthetic, Maine immediately joked:

"Well, if I die, I'll give it to you."

"Before that, put on more prosthetics."

"Okay, it's a deal."

David also looked at Maine and said with a smile.

Kenji Tanaka frowned as he watched the plot. 'Why did he have that bad premonition?'

However, he observed it first.

At that moment, Maine's gaze became a little strange, he approached David and observed him carefully.

"You're a little different today..."

David was stunned for a moment and asked: "What?"

At that moment, Kiko, dressed in black for customer service, but still showing her elegant figure, appeared on the screen.

Although Ren drew a black customer service to avoid censorship, he drew the beautiful figures of Kiko and Lucy as they infiltrated the network.

Kiko was submerged in the ice pool and connected to the network, and it seemed she was hacking some site to steal data and intelligence.

However, David and Maine were still discussing.

"You're always so depressed and a little disemboweled."

"How hurtful. I'm the same as always."

"No, it's different."

At that moment, Maine leaned into David's face with a sad expression and asked: "Did you do it?"

Kenji Tanaka saw this scene and his face suddenly became strange.

Naturally, he knew what it meant.

But David and Lucy's progress was too fast...

However, David in the manga felt very guilty and didn't dare to answer, backing away.

"It's written all over your face," Maine continued teasing.

But at that moment, Kiko seemed to have finished the work and got up directly from the ice pool.

Upon seeing Kiko appear, Maine's expression changed from miserable and frivolous to unusually serious.
