章 26: I Should Probably Stop Drawing

編集者: Dragon Boat Translation

 Aside from clothing, Meng Fan's specialty was drawing women. Especially seductive, older sister types sexy women. Next was a variety of animals, particularly fantasy creatures, then it was monsters and demons. Ordinary male characters were his biggest weakness.

'The Tale of Mountain and Sea' was a book Meng Fan had read frequently, having read over a dozen versions since his childhood. That version had great illustrations. There were many mythical creatures, monsters, and odd characters in the book. 

When Meng Fan drew Aka from 'Floating Dream in a Millenium', he had immediately thought of the Hou because of his foundations found in 'The Tale of Mountain and Sea'. 

A few years ago, when 'YinYang master' was popular, Meng Fan who harbored a great interest in ghosts and gods began to study its writings. If nothing else, if someone asked Meng Fan to master a 'Hyakkiyakou drawing', he would be able to do so with no sweat.

As for dragons, Meng Fan had naturally drawn ones several times, plus the added +3 drawing skill attribute and +1 drawing skill from his pen, his drawings were guaranteed to be better than before. Previously, it had just been the shape that looked good; now the charm was being sketched out. 

The nine dragons formed an air of magnificence blowing through his viewers. His live comment section was showering him with gifts. 

The iron chains Meng Fan had been drawing allowed netizens to begin a new round of speculations. The correct answer soon emerged from the mess, not long after. 

"Meng Boss you're real badass! You're not only fast, but these details are also on point! The scales are so small, you could barely see! But they're there, and so dense too! If I didn't watch the stream, I wouldn't have noticed!" 

"Nevermind the scales. Did you not notice the rust and reflection he'd drawn on the chains?" 

"His drawing skills are legendary!"

"The dragon looks incredible, it's lifelike!" 

"Can the one who said 'lifelike' step out for a minute. This is obviously a dragon corpse. Hahahaha!"

"The ruined nine dragons are pulling the coffin!"

"Emperor of millions, where are you now!"

"Wait, isn't that the author of Goku's biography, is he also in a coffin?" 

"To the one above me, please stop joking, let us live in the fantasy hahaha!"

"Rampage and Repair fan club checking in! This host is sick!" 

"Rampage and Repair fan club checking in +1!"

"Rampage and Repair fan club checking in +1024!"

"First time here, should I praise him straight up or is there a follow procedure?" 

"Holy cow, even art streamers are this savage now?" 

"The chains are almost done!" 

"I see a coffin appearing!" 

"It really is the nine dragons pulling a coffin from 'Shrouding the heavens'!"

"What an amazing drawing! This is better than all his previous ones!"

"Hey Mr. Host, when you're done can you hold it in place so I can take a screenshot?"

"Screenshot is not HD! Please upload an HD photo! I want to use it as my wallpaper!"

It took Meng Fan about 20 minutes to complete the 'Nine Dragons pulling a coffin'. This was because the picture didn't require any coloring, or else he would have spent much longer on it. These nine dragons were too much work. 

After he finished, he took a closer look. Meng Fan was delighted with himself. 

He looked again and saw that his viewer count had exceeded 1500. He was now even more delighted. Previously, he would be lucky to have over a thousand viewers. 

Bee had told him that he pulled viewers from his fan club, and the results were great.

The proportion of viewers watching to total ones had increased too, mostly due to the people from the book fandom staying to watch the full stream. Willingness and drawing skills alone weren't enough for Meng Fan to keep hundreds of audience members interested.

Five minutes after he began streaming, his viewer count had increased by 600, completing Task Phase 1 of [Famous Streamer]. 

Points +1, Charm +1.

Meng Fan momentarily didn't have the means to test out this charm attribute.

One, it was difficult to find a mirror or a phone to see his reflection. Two, he refused to show his face on stream, and three, there was no one else in the studio to tell Meng Fan that he became more charming and attractive. 

Meng Fan continued his stream, concluding that the only thing this charm attribute was good for was getting a girl and falling in love. But he knew his foundation was thin; +1 charm was probably useless. 

Guess I'll keep grinding.

Hopefully, his hard work could earn him some more charm, in addition to his exercise. With time, he might be able to rely on his looks for food. 

In all honesty, if he succeeded in losing weight, Meng Fan was pretty confident in his appearance. At least he was considered cute before he got fat. 

Even if one didn't grow fat, one would grow old eventually. For all the genetics were there, hence he should be able to pass the standard looks.

Comparing the probability of successful weight loss to becoming a popular streamer, Meng Fan pinched his stomach. The latter was still easier, so he continued to draw. 

Men. 

Undoubtedly Meng Fan's least favorite and hardest type of characters to draw. But at least he read the novel, the male characters did stand out more, and there weren't many easy to draw girl characters.

Chiseled jaw, handsome face, broad shoulders, symmetrical body shape, a fierce figure… These were all unavoidable features. 

For this kind of design, no matter how good Meng Fan was, his viewers would not be able to guess who it was. It was hard to identify these characters' appearances just by their descriptions. 

Next up, Meng Fan began drawing the ones with unique characteristics. 

This male character was suspended in midair. His long hair was flying behind him. His arms outstretched. Meng Fan began to draw something on his hands. 

In one was a strain of strange grass, in another was a fierce hammer. 

Once these two objects appeared, the character became recognizable. 

Background, color. 

Although there were various 666s spamming the live chat, Meng Fan was still reluctant to draw male characters like this that were handsome beyond reason. 

He canceled his original plan of drawing Xiao Yan, Hong Yi, Teng Qing Shan, and Chen Bei Xian and switched to an old man. 

Short, broken arms, sheepskin.

The man's face was washed with the harshness of aging, but his eyes were clear. His smile was bright. 

Meng Fan drew two flying daggers in front of him, splattering the sky and flying towards the old man. 

The man's fingers pointed towards them, displaying his awesomeness. 

The man in the painting couldn't speak, and Meng Fan couldn't add any narration or text on the side, but row after row of the old man's motto appeared in the live comments.

"Let the daggers come!"

"Let the daggers come!"

"Let the daggers come!"

"666!"

"Where's the wine!" 

"Such a good drawing. Go down a bottle of wine!" 

"Heaven doesn't grow tired of I, Li Chun Gang, swords, knives, and all objects are like the long night!" 

After he finished drawing, Meng Fan sat in satisfaction. For when the old man appeared, gifts in his live comments came flying like daggers swarming the sky. 

The fourth drawing, Meng Fan felt the need to draw a female character, as it was more distinctive. He had only read a few of these popular online novels... Little Dancer? Fire elf? These characters have been drawn on streams several times already. He should draw something more unique.

Meng Fan's hand speed was undeniably fast. After a while, a tree appeared in front of the viewers' eyes. 

It was a willow tree. Its branches were swaying. Its wickers were hanging like a waterfall as if it had been sculpted by a deity. The body was crystal clear. It was flowing in the wind with a streak of lightning on top of it. 

Then, Meng Fan began to sketch a figure on top of the tree. A pure and holy woman slowly revealed herself. This was definitely a goddess trope!

Beautiful beyond belief!

"What is this?"

"A tree spirit?"

"Faerie?"

"Is this... the Willow god?" 

"The willow god from 'Perfect World'?" 

"It has to be her!"

"But the f*cking willow god is a guy!" 

"Is the willow god a guy?" 

"Isn't the willow god gender-neutral?"

"At the end of the book, it was confirmed that the willow god was a guy! You guys are so disruptive. Turns out this host is a fake fan!"

"Then is the host gender-bending him?" 

"Hahahaha. I'm guessing the host is a fake fan. He definitely didn't finish the book!" 

"As long as it looks good! I'm taking a screenshot!"

Kek... Meng Fan saw these comments, and his face flushed red. He never did finish reading that book! 

"Uhm, I really don't read much web novels. Please forgive me!" 

Nothing happened even after he admitted his mistake, so he said in a low voice, "Uhm, I should stop drawing people, the fifth drawing must relate to a web novel, so I'll just draw a breathtaking scene instead."
