Bringing Culture to a Different World

>Sir Weissenasche was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
He wouldn’t possibly dare to rashly expose Joshua’s identity.
After all, his life was in Joshua’s hands.

“Far surpassed your own? If a scriptwriter possesses talent and status far surpassed your own, there’s no reason for them to be obscure and unknown.”

Madam Schroder’s feather fan covered her lower face.
She seemed to be thinking.
She was someone with another identity that was far more famous than the Grand Duke’s wife.
She is the mother to the Flower of Farucci.

Because she herself was very fond of stage plays, she made her daughter study under the most famous stage play performers.

It could be said that the success and recognition of the Black Swan was all facilitated by her.

“Then, tell that mysterious scriptwriter that Grand Duke Schroder invited him to an afternoon tea session at Farucci’s Consulate.
I refuse to believe that his status would be so high to refuse the invitation of a Grand Duke.”

“I… I’ll pass on this message to him,” said Sir Weissenasche in a slightly uncertain manner.

Joshua’s status might really be so high that he could easily refuse the invitation of a Grand Duke.
After all, Joshua was someone associated with the legendary hero, the Protector of Farucci!

Sir Weissenasche took a glance at the oil painting behind his table.
The name of that painting was ‘Revolution.’ It portrayed a young woman holding a flag leading a group of people.[1]

Unfortunately, the painting was a painting of what happened in Farucci hundreds of years ago… Right now, that painting was nothing more than the painting of a hero in Farucci’s history.

“I’m not telling you to pass on the message to him.
He must come… That Demon Prince’s death was simply too miserable, so much that I’m unwilling to accept it.
Those ignorant villagers simply don’t possess the ability to kill him.”

Madam Schroder noticed some of the minor loopholes present in the movie.
Logically, it should be impossible for a bunch of villagers with pitchforks and bows and arrows, even if there was a mage together with them, to defeat a powerful demon.

Fine.
Madam Schroder admits that she only desired to witness a happy ending.
She felt like the story of ‘Beauty and the Demon’ should have a happy ending.
It was that intolerable sullen feeling she had from watching the miserable ending that caused her to come find Sir Weinssenasche.

“I will do my best.”

In a habit-like manner, Sir Weissenasche picked up his handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
After making a lot of guarantees, Madam Schroder finally let him off and left his officer together with her guards.

After sending off Madam Schroder, Sir Weissenasche sat down behind his office table.
He was exhausted.

This was already the fifth time.
It was one thing when they were nobles from other countries.
But, when it comes to nobles from Farucci, Sir Weissenasche wouldn’t dare to offend them.
After all, his family properties were located in Farucci.

The script for ‘Beauty and the Demon’ was simply too… evil.
Joshua had spent a great amount of time molding the sweet relation between Belle and the Demon Prince.
It was so much that countless girls would shriek at the plot.
Yet, in the end, he showed no quarter and crushed that sweet sweet love.

Anyone who saw the ending of the movie would curse out at the scriptwriter.

Sir Weissenasche was racking his brains out as to how to pacify Madam Schroder’s emotional state.
It was then that his office door was suddenly pushed open.

He stood up with nervousness.
After seeing that the person who came was Joshua, he sat onto the ground in exhaustion.

“This is no time for you to sit on the ground.
Sir Weissenasche, for the next few days, I need you to make preparations for a majestic stage play,” said Joshua.
