The Novel's Extra (101-200)

Chapter 185 - The Materialized Demon Realm (2)

I tighten my grip around the accelerator of the Dwarven Supercar.

It was a speed-driven drive, riding through the magic power and flames shooting up from the ground. The hot breeze mixed with ashes irritated our faces, but it was bearable since we both had our masks on.

"...Wow."

The demon realm I've only seen in the movies or read in books passed right by me. Dark pillars of flames shot up from the ground, and monsters were screaming and chasing the Dwarven Supercar.

It was quite noisy.

However, my traveling companion said nothing. With the bear helmet on, she simply watched the whole scene, not even asking where we were headed.

So I just focused on driving.

Ignoring all the obstacles, we drove for about 30 minutes towards the GPS coordinate shown in the Book of Truth.

[Lv.6 The Strange Valley of Darkness]

I finally found one of the settings I had discarded.

I stopped the Dwarven Supercar at the entrance of the valley.

"We're here, Boss."

Many of the Tower of Wish's settings had been abandoned. The original story had changed a lot as well from when I was initially planning it. It had become more shallow and its uniqueness had disappeared completely.

I was very passionate while coming up with the settings, but when I was writing the actual story, I was less focused due to pressure and the lack of time.

This won't be fun to use. I only have half an hour until the deadline. I don't have time so let's just skip this. Ah, this one is too difficult to describe, etc... Dozens of NPCs were discarded this way, along with more than ten episodes.

As such, the Tower of Wish arc became incomplete and full of holes.

Lazy me from the past left it that way.

But now, I wanted to finish that story.

That's probably what the co-author, who should be watching me from somewhere even now, wanted to see as well.

"Where are we?"

I was being emotional when Boss asked curiously.

"Huh? Umm..."

How should I explain?

I stroked my chin and thought for a moment.

"Well, ...Ah."

Then suddenly something crossed my mind.

I just had to come up with a similar excuse as the one I always gave.

"......I read some books over at Prestige."

"Books?"

Boss widened her eyes. Then, for some reason, she smiled a little.

"I've been reading a lot of books recently as well."

She probably thought we had similar hobbies.

Boss pouted.

It's been a long time since I saw her usual self. Spartan must have healed her somehow.

But then she even tried to show me the novel she was sponsoring, so I stopped her there.

"Anyways. I found this description in the book."

I cleared my throat then recited to Boss what I had written in my settings book.
