Chapter 104 - An amazing job offer. - Entertainment Prodigy

Thanks for the PS! I'll post the extra chapter a little later today!

When the next morning arrived, while having breakfast with my parents, I told them about the house I had seen online. I talked to them about its location and price, but I didn't show them any photos.

I want to surprise them with the size and appearance of the house. I'm sure they'll really like it.

But the price made my father a little uneasy.

"140 million... That's way too much money, Kyo. Almost all of your savings will disappear if you buy that house..."

My mother wasn't very fond of the idea either.

"I don't think it's a good idea. You should save that money for the future. I know you'll be able to make a lot more money, but..."

"You worry too much. Even if those 140 million disappear from my account, we'll still have a house worth 140 million. And it could appreciate even more in the future."

"You have a point... But—"

Before my father could finish speaking, I interrupted him.

"I've already sent a message to the real estate agent. I told her we'd be visiting next Saturday."

After saying that, I stood up.

"I should get going now. Daiki is already waiting for me outside."

I left my house and was immediately surprised by someone's presence.

It was my neighbor.

I rarely saw her since she left for work very early in the morning. But now she was wearing her pajamas and taking out the trash.

As soon as she saw me, she became visibly nervous.

Her face turned red, and she immediately ran back inside her house, slamming the door behind her.

Letting out a sigh, I thought,

'She's the culprit.'

I walked past her door, and before I could go down the stairs, she approached me.

"Excuse me!"

I turned to look at her.

She was holding a small notebook that looked like a diary and a pen.

"Could you give me an autograph for me and my friend? Please."

I was surprised by the words that came out of her mouth.

Smiling, I replied,

"Of course."

I stepped closer and took the pen.

After signing both autographs, I asked,

"By any chance, were you the one who recorded my voice that day? Don't worry, I'm not angry. I just want to make sure there isn't someone stalking me or something like that."

I laughed.

Embarrassed, the woman lowered her head and answered,

"Yes, it was me. But I swear I never intended for it to be posted online! I sent it to my friend, and she ended up sending it to other friends... By the time I realized it, the video was already spreading all over the internet."

"It's okay. That's all I wanted to know. But next time you record something, keep it for personal use only."

"Personal use?"

The woman looked confused, but her face quickly turned as red as a tomato.

"I'm joking. I need to go now. Have a good day."

I said goodbye to her, and that was the last time I ever spoke with her.

A new chapter of Dragon Ball was published online, and the reception was even better than that of the first chapter.

Readers were causing quite a commotion on Twitter. There were so many compliments that I started feeling embarrassed.

And aside from the new Dragon Ball chapter, nothing else had been released.

The first volume of Tensura would still take a while to be published, and the fifth volume of Oregairu hadn't even been announced yet.

'I think I should send Kuroda an email so we can talk about this. Is one volume per month really enough? I still want to write many other works...'

Over the past few days, another important development was the beginning of the production of Idol's music video.

With Asuna's help, I managed to secure support from the studio, and the animation process had already begun.

I handed all the storyboards over to Asuna and made my vision for the project perfectly clear.

She said the music video would take TWO MONTHS to complete.

Aoi Hoshino was a little bothered by the schedule but accepted it.

Huff~~

Letting out a sigh, I finally finished the third volume of The Apothecary Diaries.

Today is Friday, and tomorrow I need to go see the house I want to buy.

However, the filming of my upcoming scenes has also been scheduled for tomorrow.

I'll have to visit the house right after filming, since filming will take place in the morning and afternoon.

I only have two more filming days left.

Tomorrow and another one two weeks from now.

After that, all I need to do is wait for the series to begin airing.

POV: Third Person

Saturday arrived, and Kyo left home, heading toward the studio.

Meanwhile, in an office building in central Tokyo, a man sat looking at several photos of a handsome young boy.

The most handsome boy he had ever seen in his entire life.

"He really is very handsome. His appearance stands out from all the other boys I've seen."

The woman sitting across from him asked,

"You didn't know him?"

"I think I've seen him before."

"He previously appeared in an advertising campaign that went viral online, and he's currently filming a series written by the author Hiroshi Kanto. He's represented by Amuse Inc."

"I see. Very well, offer him the job. If he doesn't accept, try to persuade him."

"I'll do that."

The woman smiled and then left the room.

She immediately went to her office and prepared all the necessary documents.

Afterward, she instructed one of her subordinates to deliver the paperwork to Amuse Inc.

It was a job proposal for the actor Kyo Evans.

Rikuya Takahashi read the important documents that had just arrived and said,

"A Nintendo advertising campaign? Isn't this insane?"

Rikuya laughed and immediately sent a message to Rina.

[As soon as Kyo Evans finishes filming, bring him here immediately. We have something important to discuss. Tell him a new opportunity has come up. It's the opportunity of a lifetime.]

Rina, who was at the studio watching the filming, read the message and smiled.

'For Mr. Rikuya to send a message like that, something really good must have happened.'

[I'll do that.]
