Fimmes stood outside the door of the study, uneasy.

It's been almost five minutes since her mentor Morgan was inside, and there was no movement in the room.

Not only her mentor, but also other actors from the White Vitex Troupe have not come out since they entered this study.

No... Something, right?

Fimmes anxiously walked back and forth outside the door.

She once heard a rumor that the reason why the White Vitex Theater could rise so quickly and released the 'movie' in the White Thorn Theater, a magical form of performance.

That's because of rumors that Sir White Vitex had made a deal with a demon in private, and that the manager of the theater had given his soul and life to a powerful demon.

These rumors were heard by her from some of her peers, even after watching Beauty and the Devil and This Demon Is Not Too Cold.

The image of the demon in her mind gradually changed from the 'cunning and treacherous monster that feeds on human flesh and souls' propagated by the Church. It became 'a handsome uncle with some woodenness'.

When Fimmes now thinks of the word demon, her mind is full of the image of Leon in "This Demon Is Not Too Cold".

However, it is undeniable that Phime knows that demons are indeed not a friendly race, at least compared to neutral races such as dwarves and elves, it is a fact that demons are at war with the land of frost and the land of the Holy Cult.

Could it really be eaten by some powerful demon?

Eventually, Fimmes couldn't take it anymore and pressed her furry ears to the door of her room and began eavesdropping on the conversation inside.

As she approached the door, she heard someone behind the door shouting 'next'.

Fimmes immediately looked left and right, and there were no more actors from the White Vitex Troupe waiting outside the door, which meant that she could now finally go in and participate in the casting of the new film.

Frankly... Fimmes was a little resistant and expectant to participate in the film, but in order to confirm her mentor's comfort, she pushed open the door of the room.

She walked into the room, looked left and right, and soon saw Mentor Morgan sitting on the couch on the other side of the room.

Fermèse breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to call out her mentor's name, when she suddenly found that Morgan was holding a stack of white papers in his hand and looking intently at it, so focused that she didn't even notice Fermace's step into the room.

She gave up the idea of greeting her mentor because she knew that the great dramatist would only be so focused when he got a good script.

It would be disrespectful to bother Mentor Morgan at such a time.

"You... Is it the actor who participated in the casting the most? ”

"Huh? Belch... Well, yes. ”

Fimeth was holding her breath and didn't want to say anything, and was going to wait until Mentor Morgan had finished reading the script before greeting her.

But someone broke the silence in the study first, and Fiemes subconsciously replied, and when she saw the figure sitting behind the desk, her ears suddenly stood up as if she had found something dangerous.

"Demons!"

Fimmes covered her mouth to suppress the urge to scream, and instantly took a step back.

"You're a demon, yes, but I don't think I'm scary enough yet."

Qiao Xiu looked at the other party's overreaction, as if he had seen a 'alien' who was sticking out his tongue at you in the dark.

“……”

Fei Meisi quickly calmed down, Qiao Xiu's appearance was no different from that of humans, what really made Fei Meisi feel frightened was... The smell that emanated from Qiao Xiu's palms came from the smell of the dead.

Maybe ordinary humans can't feel it, but because of her race, she 'smells' the breath of death that almost makes her breath unbreathable for the first time.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to scare you."

Based on Fimes' gaze, Qiao Xiu quickly concluded what frightened the girl with beast ears.

The mark of the contract imprinted on Qiao Xiu's hand by the Skeleton Gong also belonged to the undead monarch......

Qiao Xiu blocked the palm of the imprinted hand downward, and the ears erected on Fimeth's head slowly soothed.

But she was still on her guard against Qiao Xiu.

"Your mentor told me your name is Fimes?" Qiao Xiu said.

"Hmm... Right. ”

Fimmes didn't expect her mentor to sell her fortune to this demon so easily.

If "This Demon Is Not Too Cold" has alleviated a lot of prejudice against demons, but the aura of death exuded by Qiao Xiu's body makes Fei Meisi really unable to treat it as if she didn't see it.

Could it be... Is it true that this demon sacrificed the lives of tens of millions of people, as rumored?

"Miss Fimes... If I'm not mistaken, you're not fully human. ”

Qiao Xiu stared at the furry ears on her forehead, which were not ears that humans should have.

“……”

Fymes, who had been in a state of alertness, covered her ears with her hands, not intending to answer Qiao Xiu's question, and her eyes looked at Morgan sitting next to her from time to time.

Hopefully, her mentor will get her out of this dangerous place soon.

The aura of the skeleton is too terrifying for this little girl, and it may be that in the eyes of Fei Meisi, Qiao Xiu has been labeled as a 'dangerous and impossible to approach'.

"A new movie is in the works, and I hope that Miss Fimmes will join the show as one of the actors."

Before Qiao Xiu handed over the script of the movie to Morgan to watch, Morgan had revealed the girl's background to Qiao Xiu...... Her mother is the 'Lord of the Forest'.

The so-called Lord of the Forest is just a name given to her by humans, a name that includes awe, and in fact Fimes's mother is a powerful beast.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not going to..."

Fimmes admits that she longs to be a movie actress, and this opportunity is right in front of her, but she still can't forget the breath of death that made her heart palpitate just now!

Therefore, for the sake of her own life and the life of Morgan's mentor, Feemeth wanted to refuse the temptation of this demon.

"Calm down, Fimeth."

But Morgan, who was sitting on the other side, interrupted Fimmès.

"Mentor Morgan, I feel a terrible aura of death in him."

As she spoke, her tone gradually weakened, and at last the look of alarm on her face was replaced by astonishment, as she saw the tears on the old cheeks of Mentor Morgan......

Morgan quickly controlled his emotions and returned the script in his hand to Qiao Xiu.

"It's a good story." Morgan said.

"This good story needs good actors to present it in the form of a movie." Qiao Xiu replied.

The master of the theater let out a sigh after a brief silence for a few seconds, his eyes swept over a painting of Falotsi called "Revolution and Life" painted on the wall behind Qiao Xiu.

"Please make sure I get involved in this film." He said in a sincere tone.
