My Web Novel System - Chapter 24

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

For a moment, many authors went over to Dunbar, and many who passed by also stopped in their tracks.

Beautiful girls with graceful figures came over one after another.

They crowded around Dunbar and asked him for his contact details, which made him feel flattered.

It was as if he had really become the center of attention.

“Thank you! Thank you for your support! I’m just a newly debuted author of a fantasy novel, and there are still a lot of improvements to work on. My book, ‘Magic Age’, is available on Amazon’s e-bookstore and Penguin Publishing’s physical bookstores. You’re all welcome to buy it.”

The beautiful girls around him waved their arms and kept talking, but Dunbar could not hear them clearly because it was too large of a crowd.

“This is the first time I’ve met such passionate readers. Thanks for your support. I’ll do my best to help if there’s anything you need.”

A charming smile appeared on Dunbar’s face.

His heart was burning with passion.

These fanatical female fans were incredibly good-looking, and now they were at a hotel. If he could just bring them back to his room tonight…

Dunbar started to have some lecherous fantasies.

“Really? Can you really help me with anything?”

“Yes, of course.” Dunbar looked at the beauty who asked the question. “I’ll help you as long as I’m capable.”

“That’s great!”

The beauty’s eyes were obviously filled with joy. “Since you’re Fang Yuan’s friend, can you help me get an autographed copy of ‘The Coiling Dragon’? I love his novels!”

Dunbar was baffled, but even so, his habit of acting cool made him agree to it. “Of course, I can. That’s a piece of cake! We’re such close friends that he’ll even sign a hundred copies for me.”

“That’s amazing!”

“OMG!”

“I’m impressed!”

“I’m so envious!”

Everyone’s praises bombarded Dunbar’s ears.

However, they did not give him any time to revel in this kind of flattery.

The girls continued to ask him more questions.

“Although it’s my first time meeting you and I’m a little embarrassed to have to trouble you, but…I’d also love one.”

“Me too!”

“Will it be too much if I want three? My twin daughters especially love Fang Yuan.”

“It’s definitely not a problem since he said that he can get a hundred signed copies!”

…

Soon, many adorable young women went over to Dunbar.

This was ridiculous!

They were so passionate, excited, and uncontrollable, but it had nothing to do with Dunbar.

These continuous questions were like one punch after another to him.

Dunbar’s impudent attitude earlier shattered.

These questions continued and became more exaggerated.

“I didn’t expect you to be so familiar with Fang Yuan! Can you give me his contact information?”

“Wow, Dunbar, you’re such a good person! If I want to pursue Fang Yuan, can you be my wingman? When I’m successful, I’ll definitely treat you to a good meal!”

“I have 9,999 roses here. Can you help me to bring them to Fang Yuan? I’ll pay you!”

“Here’s the Bento box that I made for Fang Yuan.”

“I have a black card from the Swiss Bank. Please help me to pass on a message to him. The other readers only care about how high he flies. I’m the only one who cares about whether he’s tired from soaring. If he’s tired, he can come right into my arms and I’ll take care of him.”

“I have two boxes of Okamoto 001 here. I want you to pass them to Fang Yuan!”

…

Many pretty girls came to look for Dunbar, but when these girls opened their mouths, they could not stop talking about Fang Yuan.

There was not a single girl who truly cared about Dunbar.

Dunbar could not take it anymore and shouted, “Enough!”

The beautiful girls stopped their questions and looked at the red-faced Dunbar with puzzled eyes.

Dunbar could only suppress his frustration.

He naturally would not embarrass himself in front of so many people, especially in front of these beautiful ladies.

Thus, he just coughed and said to the crowd, “I understand everyone’s love for Fang Yuan, but I know his character. He’s not used to such a noisy environment. If you ask him to do so many things, he won’t be able to handle it. Moreover, he needs to spend more time and energy on his creation, so he can’t be distracted.”

Dunbar found a lame excuse to reject them.

He was going to compete with Fang Yuan, but now, he was forced by Fang Yuan’s fanatical female fans to be his manager.

This was ridiculous!

Fang Yuan and Dunbar were classmates, so their names were often mentioned together because of their writing, but they did not have a good relationship.

In school, they were practically strangers who did not even greet each other.

Dunbar did not want to lower his stance to beg Fang Yuan for his autograph.

Thus, he said, “So…it’s best if everyone could leave Fang Yuan alone so that he could focus on his writing.”

Once he said this, the crowd immediately exploded.

“Psh! If you can’t do it, then don’t talk big!”

“Yeah! I thought you and Fang Yuan had a good relationship, but your friendship means nothing!”

“Did you only claim to be Fang Yuan’s good friend just to be respected?”

“Let’s go! Let’s find someone else.”

“You shouldn’t go back on your word! Just now, you said you could get 100 autographed copies, but now you can’t even get one.”

“Little baldy…what a joke!”

After hearing these taunts from the perfect girls, Dunbar’s face became even redder.

Dunbar was a sensitive guy and hated being ridiculed in front of others.

He suppressed his anger and said in a resounding voice, “Fine! I’ll get 100 copies for you and keep my word!”
