Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Filming of the Second Episode of Honkai Impact 3rd Concludes

"Really?!"

Mobius looked at her in disbelief.

She had been worrying herself sick over the company's operations, especially when looking at the monthly deficit bills—it pained her greatly.

Now someone was actually willing to cover all the expenses.

Eden nodded: "It's true."

Although her identity was that of a celebrity, in terms of wealth, describing her as rich enough to rival a country wouldn't be an exaggeration.

With confirmation, Mobius finally relaxed, and even her appetite improved a lot.

At this moment, Elysia suddenly said: "But that's not enough."

"Elysia??"

Mobius wanted to stop her.

"Oh?"

Eden looked at Elysia with indulgent eyes and asked: "Ellie, what else do you need?"

Elysia hugged Eden's arm and said coquettishly: "I also want to shoot the TV drama together with Eden."

"Okay~ If there's a suitable role, I'll participate."

Eden agreed without any hesitation.

Mobius let out a long sigh: "Elysia... just what kind of magic do you have?"

Elysia smiled and said: "Because I'm a beautiful girl, and beautiful girls can do anything, right?"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..."

Mobius waved her hand, too lazy to argue about such things.

"Husband~"

Elysia turned to Hessian again: "My good husband~"

Hessian wiped his mouth with a tissue and said: "There's already a suitable role. In the later parts of the drama, I'll have all of you participate—Golden Eden, Flawless Elysia, Infinite Mobius..."

Eden was a bit surprised: "In just this short time, you've already conceived it?"

Hessian nodded: "Of course. I know my wife best, so naturally I have to pave all the paths for her."

Mobius rolled her eyes: "Alright, alright! We're eating—stop showing off your affection."

Eden smiled.

She still had great faith in his script.

However...

"I have a question. You've arranged roles for all of us in the script—what about you?"

Hessian smiled and said: "Since the entire script is under my control, everything in the drama should also be orchestrated by me. My role has long been decided."

Eden nodded: "Good~ Then I'll look forward to it."

After they were full from the meal.

Eden transferred a sum of money to the company on the spot.

She also instructed them to start filming as soon as possible, to ensure quality, and so on...

The reason was simply because... she wanted to see the subsequent plot.

It wasn't just her.

Now, many viewers across the country were also eagerly awaiting the official broadcast of Honkai Impact 3rd.

As time passed, more and more people watched the advance release, and the hype continued to rise.

Some TV stations even proactively approached the company to negotiate broadcasting rights.

Of course, Hessian handed all this work over to Mobius to handle.

As for himself...

He had fully devoted himself to filming the TV drama.

Thanks to the thorough prior preparations, plus the success of the advance release leading to the actors being in excellent mental states.

At the filming site.

Kiana excitedly shouted: "Director, are we finally starting filming? I've been dying to get started!"

Bronya said: "Bronya as well."

Raiden Mei said: "In the new plot, both Theresa and Fu Hua are going to appear, right? I'm quite looking forward to working with you both."

Theresa huffed twice: "Of course. I'm the academy principal—you all have to show me respect from now on."

Because of her youthful appearance and petite figure, she was often treated like a child.

Now she finally got to play the academy principal!

Naturally, she was very excited.

Fu Hua, on the other hand, appeared very composed: "Please guide me."

Not far away.

Hessian was waiting for the staff to finish preparations.

Rita, dressed in a maid outfit, stood beside him and asked: "Director, is this heavy-hearted appearance from Fu Hua what you need?"

After all, her script was the same as Fu Hua's, so she naturally knew what would happen later.

Hessian nodded: "Yes. As for you, there's actually no need for you to join the crew like this."

Rita shook her head: "Even though I have no scenes here, just standing by your side, I'm already getting into character."

"..."

Hessian said no more.

They formally entered filming mode: "Everyone, prepare for shooting."

After everyone was ready.

He continued: "After returning to St. Freya Academy, Bronya was sent for a full examination. The school determined that the energy from the Moonlight Throne engine had interfered with her bio-chip, so repairs were performed."

"At the same time, the annual Valkyrie exam was approaching."

"The classroom atmosphere became tense."

"Daily combat training was also intensifying."

"To pass this exam smoothly, the entire academy was immersed in a busy atmosphere."

As his voice sounded, everyone who had prepared in advance entered their respective roles and began acting.

Murata Himeko busily teaching in the classroom.

Fu Hua seriously training.

And... Kiana running around everywhere.

Theresa sternly looked at her and shouted: "Kiana, class is already in session. Where are you going?"

Kiana jumped in surprise, turned around, and awkwardly scratched her head: "The... Theresa! I'm heading to class right now..."

Theresa said: "In the academy, don't call me by my name directly, and don't call me auntie. You must respectfully call me 'Principal'—got it?"

Kiana nodded repeatedly: "Got it, Theresa... uh, no, Principal."

"By the way."

Theresa suddenly remembered: "The medical team reported to me that Bronya's condition has almost fully recovered. Remember to visit her tomorrow and handle her discharge procedures, otherwise she won't be able to take the exam the day after."

Hearing the word "exam."

Kiana wailed resentfully: "Ah!!! This annoying Valkyrie exam!"

Theresa said with a smile: "Don't worry. I've already asked Himeko to give you some last-minute cramming."

"Cramming... tutoring?!!"

Kiana shouted in utter refusal: "What are you saying? Does a genius like this young lady need tutoring?"

Theresa glared at her: "Stop being stubborn. The Kaslana family's tradition of being idiots has truly been carried forward by you. If no one tutors you before this exam, you'll probably fail again."

"You still remember our agreement, right?"

Kiana helplessly said: "Become an A-rank Valkyrie, and you'll tell me where that stinky dad is... I know, Principal."

"Good!"

Hessian shouted loudly.

Everyone present let out a long breath of relief.

He praised: "Not bad—it passed in one take."

Kiana proudly said: "Of course! Just look at who I am!"

Theresa was also very happy: "So this is how it feels to be the principal? Scolding people is really too much fun!"

Hessian smiled: "Everyone's in great form. Get ready for the second scene."

...

Under this efficiency.

In just one short week, they finished filming a new segment of the story.

As before.

The raw footage after filming was handed over to Kevin for post-production, with Hessian overseeing.

Knock knock knock!

The office door was knocked on.

Kevin, who was eating instant ramen while working overtime, and Hessian, who was guiding him beside him, both looked up toward the door.

It was Mobius.

She hurried in: "This is bad!"

"Don't panic—what happened?"
