“Hachi... Why don’t Hachi understand?”

Tylene was holding the script in her hand. Her eyes were completely reddened. Tears were rolling down her cheeks nonstop.

Even Ciri didn’t cry in such a manner when she first read the script. It would appear that, to this pure and honest frost elf, the destructive nature of this story was simply too much.

“The feelings of animals are far purer than humans.”

At this moment, Joshua handed a handkerchief to the frost elf. She picked up the handkerchief and wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes and calmed her mind.

“Mister Joshua, is there anything that I can do for this movie?”

After Tylene finished reading the entire script, she was unable to find any character that resembled her. Besides, with her lousy acting skills, she wouldn’t be so arrogant as to demand to participate in the movie either.

Joshua’s decision to allow her to read the script of the movie before the filming was most definitely so that she could participate in the filming of the movie. Apart from that, the only other person who would be able to read the script ahead of production would be the female mage Ciri.

“I’ve heard that elves are able to communicate with nature. Apart from human performers, this movie also needed animal performers. I possess no knowledge on how to raise and train animals.”

The script Joshua had Tylene read was named ‘Hachiko: A Dog’s Tale.’ That said, the script Joshua wrote was the adapted American version and not the original Japanese version.

For the filming of that movie, Joshua needed several animal performers.

The humans of this world had raised wolves as hunting companions. But, compared to dogs and cats, animals commonly seen, the mages of this world would occasionally raise arm-length wyrms or elemental creatures as pets.

“Raising and training animals might not be my expertise. But, I am capable of communicating with animals.”

To elves, being able to communicate with nature was their racial trait. Tylene has learned how to communicate with the Direwolves of the snowfield since young. Albeit, she has never managed to tame any direwolf.

“Then, we’ll find some time to go to the marketplace to find a couple animal performers.”

If Joshua’s memories served him correct, there existed a wild animal market in Norland. That said, the ‘wild animals’ were mostly dangerous magic creatures. If one was lucky, one might even be able to find drake eggs.

“Mn, I’ll make preparations.”

After reading the script, Tylene became extremely passionate about the filming of that movie. After agreeing to go to the market, she left the study.

With that, the study grew much quieter. Joshua had inscribed runes that prevents sound on the floor. As such, one will not be able to hear the noisy tavern in the study.

Joshua was not used to the quietness of the tavern. He took a glance out the window and saw that it was already night time.

Generally, he would be discussing the ‘Goblins vs Gnomes’ expansion with Ciri at this hour. But, Ciri was taking a leave of absence.

As such, Joshua decided to take a break and give himself a vacation today. After he finished washing up, he returned to his room with the intention of resting up for tomorrow’s movie performers’ selection.

But, Joshua had only laid down on his bed for a short while when a message came from the magic network.

The magic network interface appeared before Joshua. Joshua extended his hand and tapped open the message. He discovered that the message was from Gallolei.

Since that proud Black Swan left Norland, she has, from being the Flower of Farucci, became the Flower of the Mage Forum’s Camp.’ Among the people that established camps on the forum, she was the most popular.

Whether it be the amount of posts Gallolei made on her camp or the amount of replies she received, they both far surpassed the second place Belle.

Perhaps this might have to do with the management from her mother Madam Schroder, Gallolei began posting more than just her daily thoughts and food photographs onto her camp. She would also write those ‘Chicken Soup for the Soul.’

It was through Gallolei’s camp that Joshua learned how things were going with the promotion of ‘Léon: The Demon’ in Farucci.

Why would this busy young lady send a sudden message to him so late at night?

Joshua took a glance at the content of the message and discovered that it was a simple greeting.

‘Good evening, Mister Joshua...’

‘Mmm, good evening.’

Joshua soon sent a reply.

‘Mister Joshua, have you slept yet? I’ve returned home. But, after returning home, my father has been arguing with my mother the entire time. Because of that, I’ve not been able to fall asleep.’

Not able to fall asleep...? Doesn’t this world possess magic that could block out noise?

Of course, Joshua did not mention those unwitty comments.

‘Arguing? The Grand Duke of Blackwood and your mother? Why are they arguing?’

In his impression, Madam Schroder was an unyielding career woman. Bringing back ‘Léon: The Demon’ to Farucci, she will undoubtedly provoke a conflict caused by the change to stage plays brought forth by movies.

Even though it would be a conflict of arts, ‘Léon: The Demon’ will definitely leave behind enormous shock to stage plays. The result could very likely cause a portion of the stage play performers lose their job.

Because of that, it was likely that there would be some nobles in Farucci that would try to prevent the proliferation of ‘Léon: The Demon.’ Those hindrances Madam Schroder will encounter were things that she will have to solve on her own. Joshua would not be able to provide any help to her.

‘I don’t know either. I just feel that my father seemed somewhat strange... Well, Mister Joshua, let’s talk about something else.”

Strange... In what manner is he strange? But, before Joshua could finish typing, a picture popped up on his screen.

With the current speed of the magic network, uploading pictures was very difficult. But, Gallolei had the leaf of the World Tree. The picture Gallolei sent over was a ‘selfie’ she took using the ‘camera.’

It was a... a very bold selfie.

The young and seemingly underaged girl was only wearing gauze pajamas. Her eyes were looking at the camera. Her rosy lips were slightly opened. It seemed like she was saying something.

Most unbearable of all, her soft white skin and her tempting collarbone was completely exposed. One could also slightly see her figure beneath the pajamas.

‘If you upload a picture like this to your camp, your mother will likely ground you.’

Joshua sent a very honest evaluation.

‘It’s alright. This photo is only for Mister Joshua. What do you think?’

Seeing this message, Joshua felt like he could see the Black Swan young lady hiding under her blanket and laughing.

‘I’m not interested in such an under-developed body. You can try again after a couple years.’

In order to not have the Black Swan become too pleased with herself, Joshua gave her a cruel answer.

‘Wuu. Okay, I got it... Lady Mother came to my room. Let’s talk again in the future. Good night.’

Not long after, Gallolei stopped sending messages to Joshua.

As Joshua looked at the pajamas picture Gallolei sent over, he suddenly lost his desire to sleep.

Even though Joshua was not interested in underaged girls, it doesn’t change the fact that the Black Swan had recklessly showed off her figure and budding charm.

When Joshua was lying on his bed pondering whether to go out to take a walk, the corner of his blanket was suddenly lifted up. The next moment, a person intruded into Joshua’s bed.

“Ciri?” Joshua could smell the familiar barbecue smell. Immediately, he thought of that female mage.

As he was too focused on chatting with Gallolei earlier, Joshua did not notice Ciri entering the room.

Joshua turned around and saw Ciri lying on the other side of the bed. Her silver-gray hair slid down her cheek. In the darkness, there seemed to be a slight rosy luster on her face.

“My big sis’s not in her alchemic atelier. Because of that, I had no choice but to come back to sleep in your bed,” said Ciri.
