Harem: Shooting Anime In Another World

Chapter 6

In the dim little room, a faint light spilled down from the magical crystal at the top of the room, slightly stabilizing the light source. In the center of the room, two figures sat facing each other.

"Mr. Zat, welcome to the world after death."

A blue-haired woman, dressed in somewhat revealing attire, smiled slowly and said, "Just now, you unfortunately met your demise. Although it was a brief life, you indeed died."

Faced with the strange words from this beautiful girl, Zat, realizing where he was, looked up in surprise and then muttered to himself, "I see, then I only have one question... about the girl I knocked over..."

Seeing the concern on his face, the blue-haired goddess smiled and replied, "She is still alive."

"That's great..." Sighing in relief from the bottom of his heart, Zat said with a saintly smile, "I didn't die in vain."

"??"

Seemingly not understanding his words, the blue-haired goddess replied in surprise, "What do you mean? In fact, even if you hadn't knocked her over, that girl wouldn't have been injured at all."

"??!!"

Seeing Zat's astonishment, the goddess merely flipped through her manual with a subtle expression and said helplessly, "That donkey cart was supposed to stop right in front of that girl."

"Donkey cart??"

"Yes, a donkey cart."

"Then what happened? Did I die because of the donkey cart?"

"No, no, you weren't crushed; you were startled to death. You thought you were crushed by a donkey cart, and for a moment, it was like a heart attack, and you were shocked."

"Shocked... shocked?!!"

Seeing Zat fall off his seat in surprise, the blue-haired goddess completely lost her earlier restraint, bursting into laughter as if she had been hit. "Pfft! Hahaha!!! Hahaha! After doing this job for so long, I've never seen such a funny way to die! Pfft, hahaha!!!"

"You thought you were crushed, got startled, wet yourself on the spot, lost consciousness, and were sent by a passerby to the nearby church, where your soul ascended to the netherworld amidst the laughter of the pastor and the nuns!"

Hearing the cruel words spilling from the girl's mouth, Zat, on the verge of collapse, covered his ears in disbelief and shouted, "Stop!!! I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it!!"

Yet, the goddess, wearing a wicked smile, approached him with a sinister demeanor and mocked, "Now, your family has rushed to the church, learned the cause of your death, and everyone, including your family, couldn't help but burst out laughing!"

"Ahhhhh!!! Stop, stop, stop!!!"

...

"Cut! Aya's performance was so good that she completely blended into her character, but Zat's expression is still too tense, and some of his movements are too stiff. Let's practice again later and retake it then!"

With Durin's words, the two who had been connected in the dark room stopped. They seemed to have immersed themselves too deeply into their characters, and even after leaving the room, they were still very much in character.

Especially the blue-haired girl, who had been made to look flashy by Zat's arrangements, never thought she would have a day where she would lure someone herself. At that moment, she frowned, as if she truly regarded herself as a goddess.

"Lord Durin, why did you place the goddess in such a character? When I go to the church to pray, I might see that unpleasant face of Aya in front of me; how can I calm my heart then?!"

"Whose unpleasant face?!"

Seeing the two tearing each other apart again, Durin smiled, shook his head, and looked at the magical video recorder in his hand. The initial filming effect from earlier was good. Even though he was originally a newcomer who hadn't learned much about filming, with this magical tool, he felt he had captured many wonderful shots under various unreasonable angles and focal distances!

Yes, the magic video recorder is different from video cameras in another world; once placed, you can't freely change the angle and focal distance. On the contrary, this magic video recorder can almost freely display screens at any angle within a certain range. Not to mention the black technology, the magic of this world doesn't explain any reasoning to you.

After solving the lens issue, other problems naturally fell into place. The venue used an empty room in the Edward family's castle, and the lighting issues could be adjusted with magical crystals. Clothing was not a problem for the meticulous Windy. After hearing Durin's requirements, she simply changed into a ready-made outfit from the castle.

After these issues were resolved, the only remaining problem was the actors. After the first live-action filming, Durin clearly felt that Aya easily entered her state thanks to her natural performance, but Zat struggled to portray the character of a young man who didn't fit him at all, repeatedly failing to express the essence of the original protagonist's character from the source material.

However, with the constant training, Zat has clearly begun to awaken his acting talent gradually, and Durin can distinctly feel the progress in his partner's performance, thus the actor's issues are clearly no longer a problem.

"The script, filming, actors, costumes, props, and venue are all resolved, and it seems the first paragraph will be finished soon."

With Durin's words, Windy, Zat, and Aya, who were watching the screen recorded earlier with the magical imaging machine, all displayed expressions of surprise one after another.

Especially the actors Zat and Aya could hardly believe that what they had just done was captured by such a machine. And as Durin had said before, this recorded video will be shown to everyone in crowded places in the future!

In response to such extreme embarrassment, Zat, who is loyal to the Edward family, was fine, but Aya, who had been completely deceived and kidnapped, was the first to show an indignant expression. However, when Durin mentioned the reward of "five gold coins each month, and after the movie is broadcasted, dividends can be distributed according to the profits," this indignation quickly turned into excitement.

This guy has now fully taken on the form of acting, and even when talking, he unknowingly substituted himself into the character of anime.

"Alright, Windy will prepare dinner first, and you two don't forget to continue the rehearsal later. I have already printed the script and will send it to you later. Tomorrow, we will fight again, and at that time we will confirm the filming location and the cameraman for the subsequent story."
