#44. Guardian of the magical world, Adele Sharon (1)
“What are you going to do now, bro?”
A white cloud asked breathlessly from within the bushes.
“… wait.”
Damdeok looked straight ahead.
It was a busy filming site, with many people moving around busily, but only one person was shining brightly.
Adele Sharon, a woman with soft blonde wavy hair and distinct facial features, has an appearance that makes you wonder if an angel and a devil would look like that if they coexisted.
She was waiting for the next photo shoot, surrounded by many people.
“and… But she’s really pretty.”
Damdeok was lost in thought for a moment while listening to the sound of Baekgureum muttering.
‘If I want to make that woman a priest, I have to first gain her reverence… .’
Well, the woman I see now named Adele Sharon deserved respect and admiration from someone. She never seemed like she would show those feelings to anyone else.
‘This might be a bit difficult.’
Baekgureum: That guy only knew swordsmanship, so it was easy to get his awe.
‘When I watched TV earlier, I saw that he was a huge superstar in this world.’
That wasn’t all.
According to the information Juso-yul gave me on the way, ‘Adele Sharon’ was a huge star who was revered almost as a god in this world and whose popularity was sky-high.
How can we make people feel in awe of this arrogant superstar who has enormous wealth, fame, and unimaginable popularity? .
Damdeok had been thinking seriously about it since a while ago.
“Come on, once everything is settled, let’s go in right away.”
Meanwhile, filming resumed.
A scene where the main character, Adele Sharon, leads the battle holding a colorful staff.
The cameras and other equipment were no different from a typical movie set, but there was one thing that was noticeably different.
Grumble! Wow!
Real burning flames, not CG, extended forward from Adele Sharon’s staff.
After that, extra actors filled the space, performing their magic.
Puzzle! Choochuk! Quack!
A truly majestic magical battle unfolding in a field of reeds.
It was a moment when it became clear that this was a magical world.
“brother… “Can you really make that woman a priest?”
Baekgureum asked with his mouth wide open. In a world where magic reigns, it will not be easy to gain awe through swordsmanship or martial arts.
Damdeok just looked at Adele Sharon’s flame magic without saying anything.
‘But there must be some way.’
There is no problem in this world that has no answer.
It was Damdeok who always believed and lived like that.
Didn’t he survive his 27 years of talentless life with the single thought that there would always be an answer?
Damdeok constantly looked at Adele Sharon and tried to find any loopholes.
And finally,
“Okay cut!”
With the director’s cut sign, Damdeok found the small answer.
Voices heard in Damdeok’s ears as he keenly focuses his senses.
It was an argument between Adele Sharon and the director.
“I can’t do this anymore.”
As soon as Adele Sharon spoke bluntly, the director approached her, gently soothing her.
“Hey, what’s wrong~ You’ve been doing well so far. “As long as I finish the next scene, today’s battle scene will end like this.”
“You know I have mana deficiency. “I can’t do it because I’m tired.”
“What do you mean? There have been no problems so far. In addition, I prepared ten sets of top-quality wands (wands with sufficient mana). Don’t do that… .”
“I can not.”
When Adele Sharon spoke with her eyes sparkling, the director was literally dumbfounded.
“I can’t continue filming beyond this, so please call the magic action actor when he arrives. “I’ll be resting in the car until then.”
Just like that, Adele Sharon got into the large black vehicle, and the director slumped his shoulders in silence.
The car Adele Sharon was riding in was heavily tinted, so it was impossible to see inside, but Damdeok’s heightened senses were able to fully feel what was happening inside the car.
As soon as I got in the car, I started pounding! Adele Sharon was lying down, and a small murmur escaped her mouth.
“Ugh, I was so hungry I almost died.”
The haughty expressions and gestures she had up until now disappeared, and she looked very easy-going in the car.
The female manager sitting next to me smiled brightly and responded.
“Kkeuk, good job, sister. That director is famous for proceeding without any breaks. “If you don’t do this, the other actors and the staff will all be in trouble, right?”
“I don’t know if other people are sick, but I’m sure I’m already sick. Should I contact the film association and bury that bastard, the director?”
The manager added, laughing awkwardly at her cruel words.
“If your sister says it, it’s true, so don’t say things like that.”
“… “Is this really true?”
“No. Last time, my sister made a fuss about burying the president of a genuine department store, and our agency’s stock plummeted. “If an accident happens again this time, how sad will the CEO be?”
“That’s because he sexually harassed employees in front of me.”
“That punishment is up to the law. “Why would you ask that?”
“Because I have a lot of money.”
“The chairman there also had a lot of money.”
“I win.”
“ha… Sister, please.”
“Oh, I don’t know! I don’t know! Anyway, there are so many annoying bastards in the world!”
The corners of Damdeok’s mouth slowly rose as he listened to the two people’s conversation.
‘what. ‘You have a hot personality.’
When I saw her on screen, I thought she would be very cold, but surprisingly, she was a woman with an unusual charm.
Moreover, seeing him take the role of a villain into account while considering the rest of the staff, it seems like he has a big heart.
It was fortunate.
Because the address next to me was enough to be haughty and cold.
‘But what is mana oligophobia?’
Does a famous megastar suffer from a rare disease?
At that moment, the worried voices of the director and staff could be heard from beyond Adele Sharon’s car.
“Did Adele have mana deficiency that severe? I don’t think she was bad at using magic to this extent in her previous works… .”
“Well, I don’t know. Mana oligophobia is a very rare disease… .”
A staff member who had just finished talking on the phone approached the director with a frown.
“What should I do? Director. “They say the fastest action actor will arrive in an hour.”
“what? “If you come that late, I won’t be able to finish my schedule today!”
“But it was a sudden call from our side… Plus, it looks like there’s a lot of filming happening elsewhere today. There aren’t many people available… .”
“Haha, I’m really going crazy.”
The director was pressing his temples as if he had a headache.
It seemed like they were having a hard time finding a stuntman to replace Adele Sharon.
As I listened to the story, I heard that there was a stuntman prepared just in case, but he was seriously injured during filming this morning and was taken to the hospital.
That was also the result of pushing forward for several days without rest.
‘What kind of great movie are you trying to make? .’
The greed on the film director’s face made it seem like he had no regard for the safety and rest of others.
Adele Sharon is probably too famous a star to be able to do whatever she wants.
“Oh, this is really difficult… This scene is really important. Everyone knows, right? Knock down an enemy general with one hit from a very long distance! “It has to have an impact that sticks in your mind, huh?”
The director looked at the staff and gave them a look telling them to come up with a solution quickly.
Everyone bowed their heads and remained silent. Damdeok’s eyes grew brighter as he watched the scene.
‘Killing the enemy commander from a distance… .’
It doesn’t have to be magic, does it?
Damdeok smiled as he held the white bow that had suddenly transformed.
* * *
Among the gathered staff, the director standing in the middle looked suspiciously at the man in front of him.
“… therefore. “You can hit that enemy commander with one shot?”
At the tip of the director’s finger was a straw model of a giant monster.
The distance is approximately 500m.
Even though it was a wide field, it was quite a distance.
Damdeok answered confidently.
“yes. you’re right. “I can hit that much with one shot.”
“You have to hit it with fire magic. “Can you do it?”
“yes. it’s possible.”
“hmm… .”
The director looked the man in front of him up and down.
The clothes were a bit strange, but what was even stranger was the unidentified tool in the man’s right hand.
“But what is that?”
“This is a bow.”
“bow?”
The director tilted his head.
The staff around me were the same.
They are all tilting their heads as if this is the first time they have heard the word.
‘Why, people in this world don’t know swords or bows…’ .’
Damdeok was not embarrassed.
Since it was a world where only ‘magic’ was developed in the first place, I decided to understand it that way.
“yes. This is my favorite weapon. “I will use this bow to use magic.”
“You use magic with that?”
The director’s eyes widened and then narrowed again.
Weapons used for magic were usually wands, gloves, and spirit stones.
It was my first time seeing such a strange-looking tool.
“You’re not lying, are you?”
“of course.”
“name is?”
“It’s called Yudamdeok.”
“The name is also strange.”
“thank you.”
“… It wasn’t a compliment, but hmm, I like it. “Let’s test it out.”
The director readily gave the OK sign.
In any case, it is best to finish filming quickly.
That was the only thing that interested him right now.
After the director’s autograph, several coordinators came up and handed Damdeok various outfits.
One of the staff members who was watching this carefully approached the director and whispered.
“Director. “I’m not sure of your identity. Is that okay?”
The director scolded the staff as if they were not worrying about anything.
“You’ve been living here for a few years and you still don’t know that. If you look at it, you can see the size. uh? It’s written right on the face. radish. number of people. god. person! Are there any of these kids snooping around the filming set looking for work? “Stop talking nonsense and get ready quickly.”
The staff scratched the back of their heads for a moment, but eventually returned to their original positions after being repeatedly yelled at by the director.
“Okay, if you’re ready, standby~ Cue!”
In response to the director’s sign, Damdeok raised his left hand and drew a plausible circle in the air.
OK,
Grumble! Good luck!
The majestic sun wolf appeared in the field.
‘Originally, there is no need for such preparations… .’
In any case, it was directed because it was necessary to emphasize that it was magic.
The director’s face was momentarily distorted by the unexpected appearance of the summoned beast, but his face soon changed to a calm one as the sight of Damdeok and Taeyang Wolf standing on the rock looked quite convincing.
Filming continued without interruption.
The extra actors who came out from the back wandered through the field and used magic, and Damdeok slowly walked up the rock that jutted upward as scripted.
Keying!
A bluish arrow made by concentrating divine power at the fingertips.
The voices of staff whispering can be heard from afar.
“what. “You made something with your bare hands without any equipment?”
“that’s interesting. But was there such magic?”
While quietly listening to the people’s voices, Damdeok skimmed the sun wolf’s mane with the tip of an arrowhead.
Good luck! Grumble!
Damdeok quietly lifted the bow, hanging the fire that spread quickly and a fiery arrow created in an instant on the bowstring.
‘It’s quiet.’
The filming site was as quiet as if we were holding our breath.
Everyone seemed excited about seeing the magic tool for the first time.
‘The wind is just right.’
The time has come to demonstrate the true value of the archery that Apollo taught us.
Although I am still very immature, I was able to meet my goal of 500m.
Damdeok aimed his bow at a target in the distance and slowly stopped breathing.
When the quivering bowstring momentarily became quiet,
One, two, three… !
Wedge!
With the sound of a cool breeze blowing, a fiery arrow was struck precisely in the head of a monster doll that was far away.
Pow! Grumble!
As soon as the monster doll caught fire, people’s eyes widened.
No one was making a big fuss because the camera was rolling, but everyone was just seeing Damdeok’s fire arrow as the 3rd circle magic ‘Fire arrow’.
“… what. “What kind of actor uses the 3rd circle spell?”
“If you’re in the 3rd circle, you can probably get the position of security captain, right?”
“This is my first time seeing 3-circle magic used on a filming set.”
People clicked their tongues and looked at Damdeok, and Damdeok shot three arrows in quick succession.
Wedge! Wedge! Wedge!
puck! Pow! Pow!
The monster doll had to fall back helplessly as the fiery arrows struck one after another.
Grrrrrrr!
Looking at the terrifyingly burning monster doll, Damdeok quietly lowered his bow.
“Wow!”
The director shouted the cut sign with a satisfied look on his face and started clapping hard.
“Whahaha! Awesome! Awesome! Did you say Mr. Yu Dam-deok? It’s so awesome! “I’m sorry I didn’t notice, okay?”
The director jumped out with open arms and hugged Damdeok.
So did other people.
Even though no one asked, everyone was clapping.
3rd circle magic was extremely rare among ordinary people, so it was understandable.
‘The values for graphic correction have been solidified. ‘What kind of rice cake is this?’
The director laughed heartily and instructed Damdeok to provide a place to rest.
Before we knew it, people had gathered around Damdeok.
“Wow, weren’t you selected as a bright student at Daebak Academy?”
“My magic skills are a waste to just be an unknown actor like this.”
“Did you say Yu Dam-deok? “What year did he graduate from the academy?”
Damdeok was surrounded by people, and Adele Sharon, who had come out before he knew it, was staring blankly at him.
‘I just said that’s real magic… ?’
fantasy,
