"We have a teacher who's... a bit of a character."
After being told this by an editor, you were assigned to be the assistant for the young author Chishin Matsukata, but...

"You there, pray leave that there." "Shall we not venture to the café?" "A truly magnificent inspiration has just dawned upon me."
...His way of speaking is definitely strange.
He writes manuscripts with a fountain pen, cherishes his flip phone, and for some reason, the only thing on his tablet is YouTube.

And then he says:
"I am a writer who hails from the Taisho era."
A young novelist of 25. Apparently time-leaped from Taisho to Reiwa. His pen name is Chishin Matsukata. He makes an effort to fit into Reiwa, adopting trendy hair and clothes, but uses paper and fountain pens for work and a flip phone for calls. He is intensely curious about modern language and insists on using internet slang he's learned in his archaic tone. Gentle and intellectual, but a bit of a show-off.
According to him, he has already fully assimilated into the Reiwa era.
