My Extraordinary Achievement Chapter 125 – Professional Manga Artist
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Everything is set up this fast?”
Meng Fan had spoken with Xing Ta Ge of his publishing plans. After telling Xing Ta Ge that everything was settled and he was awaiting the print, Xing Ta Ge was amazed. How could this guy f*cking publish like a charity, printing whenever and whatever he wanted so fast?
After seeing Meng Fan nod, he took out his phone to transfer money before he sheepishly laughed. “I have to pay my car loans soon, and I’ll only have about 2000 ish dollars left. I’ll give you 2000 first, and I’ll pay the rest later.”
He was the scriptwriter of this manga, plus he provided the story, and he was also the one to propose the manga. Of course, he had to pay for a portion of this souvenir publication.
“This is enough.”
Meng Fan hadn’t planned on making Xing Ta Ge pay for any of it. After all, he only went through so much to publish it because of the rewards he would receive. In fact, it didn’t need to be published at all.
He thought about it and didn’t refuse. “I printed a thousand copies. You can take 100 of them to gift people or put on your bookshelf. The other 900 will be mine. I am planning to give them out to my netizens on stream.”
“Is it really enough? Don’t trick me.”
“Really.”
“Alright then!”
With this, the task of publishing was finally complete. He just had to wait for the books to print. He hoped for everything to go smoothly.
After changing into his sportswear, Meng fan headed for the track field. It was 6:00 pm and nobody was there.
Since the sports meet ended, there was no need for a last-minute practice. And the several pairs of couples who usually frequent the track had gone off to dinner. The track felt particularly empty. Looking across, there were less than ten people.
Meng Fan did his 10 kilometers and headed back to his dorm. Since he had just dealt with the publishing matter, he decided to stay at home after eating the dinner that Chen Da Qiang brought for him. While lying on his bed, he began to read manga and play video games. This corrupted feeling felt almost too good.

During the last few days, Meng Fan didn’t return to the dormitory since his roommates knew he had been working on the manuscript outside of school. They also knew of his house close to the campus.
Although they knew Meng Fan’s family background was well off, they were still quite surprised. After all, the prices of the housing near the academy were surprising indeed.
When Meng Fan returned that night, all three people in the dorm had been cooperative in being home. The four of them minded their own affairs while chatting occasionally, forming a harmonious atmosphere.
“When did you start playing Pesticide (Mobile Legends)?”
Meng Fan came out of the washroom to see Zhang Zhou Wei engrossed in his game.
“You haven’t been back these days, so you don’t know.” Chen Da Qiang laughed as he explained, “Wang Ya Nan has been pressing Zhang Zhou Wei lately to study for the postgraduate exam, but the pressure was too big, so he suggested to Wang Ya Nan to allow him a game that could combine play and work. So Wang Ya Nan agreed to his request and allowed him to play Pesticide because she also played occasionally.”
Xing Ta Ge added, “The two of them have poison. It’s normal to couple up and play games together, but do you know what kind of f*cking name they gave themselves?”
Meng Fan was curious, so he carefully looked toward Zhang Zhou Wei. Zhang Zhou Wei was playing the character, Angela, probably because it was his most played character. His in-game name was… Angela poos!
Meng Fan almost scrunched his nose in disgust. “You are really a spectacle.”
Curious, he asked, “What’s Wang Ya Nan’s IGN?”
Zhang Zhou Wei moved his finger, controlling his character Angela near the character Arthur. Meng Fan could see very clearly the IGN above Arthur’s head—Arthur Delivers TP!
Then, the game screen on Zhang Zhou Wei’s mobile phone suddenly retreated from the dungeon to his home base. GG!
His home was almost gone while they were still farming beasts in the dungeons!
“The two of you must be entertained and relaxed, but your teammates must be vomiting blood! I didn’t think Wang Ya Nan would agree to this game.” Meng Fan was really speechless.

Zhang Zhou Wei chuckled toward Chen Da Qiang and Xing Ta Ge. “You two have the nerve to mock others? Your names aren’t much better!”
He then turned to Meng Fan. “Do you know what their names are? One of them is called Xiao Hou Dun Squatting; the other is called Cao Cao on Lookout.”
“Squatting in the outhouse?”
Meng Fan scrunched his nose again. “What do you guys have against washrooms?”
Xing Ta Ge smiled slyly. “Originally we planned to call ourselves Big Ba and Small Ba, but Da Qiang didn’t want to. He was scared we’ll get banned.”
Meng Fan paused for a moment, thinking of the specialty in the names. They all began with a character’s name from the game. Combined with Xing Ta Ge’s perverted mind, he quickly recalled the character from the game. That would surely get them banned!
“Come come come, let’s play one; the four of us plus Ya Nan.”
Meng Fan was dragged into the game with them. He had downloaded the game previously and played about a dozen times. He was even ranked bronze II!
To cooperate with them, he used the free name change card to change his IGN to match theirs. The name Jiang Zi Ya toothache was taken, and Sun Shang Xiang Sausage was also taken as well. Pei Qin Hu Kou was also taken… But Ming Shi Ying Cancer… Hehehe. That name was successful.
“This is very fitting!”
“How does that song go again!”
The three of them were laughing uncontrollably.
“Let’s start the game; are we playing or not?”
Meng Fan entered the game in a sullen mood. They had just started when the sound appeared 5 seconds before the enemy minions spawned. Meng Fan saw the opposing team’s “Short Legs” message.
“Just by looking at their names, I can tell it’s a pair of couples on the other side and one single dog!”
During this game, Meng Fan savagely killed the short legs 11 times.
…
At five o’clock the next day, Meng Fan suddenly paused as he was preparing to head outside for his run. Then, his face turned into an ecstatic smile, frightening Zhang Zhou Wei, who was just about to leave for his date. While clutching his chest, Zhang Zhou Wei said to Meng Fan, “Fatty, you have someone who likes you now, and I have a master. Do you have to be so straightforward and covet my beauty?”
“Get lost, hahaha!”
Meng Fan continued to laugh as he left without changing. He didn’t bother explaining to Zhang Zhou Wei and left the room with his art tube.
Just now, an alert sounded off in his head. The [Manga Artist] task was finally complete. He earned +100 points, +3 drawing skills, +3 set design, +3 screenwriting.”
This also meant that the publishing house had printed his novels, and the process had been correct and aligned to the system’s judgment.
The publishing house was efficient indeed. Meng Fan felt it was well worth the price.
Of course, he knew that it wouldn’t be finished overnight if it weren’t for Qin Jiao.
In addition, after completing the [Manga Artist] task, another alert triggered, signaling an upgrade of the task!
“Ding! You’ve triggered the achievement task [Professional Manga Artist].”
“The task requires serialization of one manga or three manga projects with ten individual volumes and reach a total sales of 100,000 units.”
“Upon completion, you will receive the title [Professional Manga Artist] (Drawing skills +5, Set design +5, screenwriting +5) “
Meng Fan prepared to take his art tube home and feel the changes in these new attributes. Only before he even reached the entrance, a call from Qin Jiao came.
“The publisher called and said you can pick up the books today. Where are you now?”

Is It Too Late To Move My Lair?
A legendary dragon... It has been told in the stories for hundreds of years. Some say it keeps a mountain of treasure in its cave, some say it is a vicious beast, some say it protects the village nearby, some claim it can grant their wishes, and some just think it's nothing more than a fairytale. He is not. The dragon is very real, although he isn't bothered by what people think of him in the slightest. He also doesn't have a grand treasure, nor does he grant wishes, like a magical genie. He is not interested in eating humans either. And as for protecting them… well. This is the story of the time before the legends, how they came to life and a dragon in the quest of his snooze. In a nutshell, this is a simple, light-hearted story with a dragon in it. What I have in mind is a relatively short one compared to most of the works on this site, but we'll see where it goes. This is my first attempt at writing something like this, so please be patient and kind in pointing out mistakes. As for the posting schedule... let's say it will be sporadic. Hope you enjoy reading, as much as I do while writing it… THE STORY IS NOT DROPPED, JUST SLOW ON THE UPDATES. Cover art by Nane, aka me. (Cross-posted on Scribble Hub.)

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
