I am a Type-Moon comic artist!

"yes----"

"Great! I'm sure everyone here today has been looking forward to this for a long time, and you must be really excited, right? You're all eager to see who will be the voice actors for your favorite manga/anime characters, so—it's time to begin!"

Chapter 164 The Magician in Paradise

“It’s not the Demon Eye.” The woman, whose eyes were wrapped in layers of leather straps, slowly lifted one of the straps near her eye and looked at the wall beside her, as if she could see Kurokawa Kazuya sitting there through the wall, and made this judgment.

Then the leather was put back in its original place.

Despite her bizarre attire, everyone around her seemed to ignore her.

"So, should we withdraw the invitation?"

“No need.” The woman looked at the stage in front of her and said, “Although he is not a Magic Eye User, he can become a customer. Just look at this building and you’ll know. Moreover, according to our previous investigation, he has not taken out any bank loans. In other words, even billions of dollars are nothing to him. As for the rest… whether his money comes from clean sources is irrelevant. As long as that is proven, that’s enough. Besides… he is not an ordinary person who has nothing to do with magic.”

"How so?" asked the person next to her. This woman also held a high position in the "Demon Eye Collection Train," but since it wasn't departure time for the "Demon Eye Collection Train," she was allowed to come out and move around a bit.

To make judgments about certain things.

And her eyes are naturally high-level demonic eyes.

The leather around the eyes is also a form of Mystic Eye Killer, used both to limit the power of one's own Mystic Eye and to defend against other Mystic Eyes.

“He possesses the Mystic Eye Killer, and it’s a very high-level one. It’s probably the highest-grade one that money can buy.” The woman continued, “Even my Mystic Eyes find it a little difficult to see what’s going on with him.”

"I see..." The man standing beside him, who looked like a servant, mused. "The highest-grade Mystic Eyes on the market can cost hundreds of millions of US dollars. If he's preparing something like that... does that mean he might spend even more money to buy Mystic Eyes...?"

The woman nodded: "That's right. Although there are even higher levels of the Mystic Eye Killer, that's the deepest secret of a magic family, something that money can't buy... Even we only have the two left by the manager. Alright, let's go... no, it seems the master has come to receive us."

"Hello, ma'am," a staff member approached and said, "Mr. Kurokawa would like to invite you up for a chat. How about it?"

"Okay, lead the way."

A few minutes ago...

"It's about to begin," Kurokawa Kazuya said, glancing at Ryougi Shiki beside him. "You look cute with your glasses on."

"Don't say such pointless things..." Ryougi Shiki sighed, looking at the gift Kurokawa Kazuya had given her. "I don't need to wear glasses at all, do I? I'm not nearsighted or anything..."

"Well, this thing is the Mystic Eye Killer, so it should still be somewhat useful."

"Mystic Eyes Kill..." Ryougi Shiki said, taking off her glasses and looking at the glasses and necklace in her hand. Then, as if sensing something, she put her glasses back on: "Speaking of Mystic Eyes, I feel like someone is watching this side of the world."

"Huh...who's there?" Kurokawa Kazuya walked to a glass panel on the side. From there, he could see the stage, but the crowd behind it was not so clear because of the dim lighting.

“That one,” Ryougi Shiki said, standing on a chair to the side and pointing to someone in the crowd, “I feel like she’s looking at me.”

"Hmm..." Kurokawa Kazuya looked closely and saw her face.

That's a woman.

He had short, boyish hair and a model-like physique, but something was wrapped around his glasses... it wasn't very clear from there. However, it didn't seem to affect his movements in the slightest.

"Then...it must be a magician or something like that, right?"

Kurokawa Kazuya said somewhat uncertainly, "This image feels so familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before..."

It's probably a description of a magician in the Type-Moon universe.

"Hey, how about we call her up here?" Ryougi Shiki thought for a moment and said, "She looks like some kind of Mystic Eye user, right? Perfect, wouldn't it be great to test out the Mystic Eye Killing you gave me?"

"Let's not go. She's a magician after all. It wouldn't be good if something happened to her." Kurokawa Kazuya shook his head. If it were just him, he probably would have called her up. But Ryougi Shiki is here... it wouldn't be good if she got into danger.

"You actually really want her to come up here, don't you?" Ryougi Shiki said with a smile as she got off her chair. "You also want to see that magician's moves, don't you? Perfect, so do I. I'm thinking of seeing if she... is worth killing."

"Ugh..." Kurokawa Kazuya gritted his teeth and touched his gloved right hand, where three Command Seals were displayed...

"Alright, then let's call her, but I don't care whether she comes up or not." With that, Kurokawa Kazuya called over a staff member, pointed to the people below and said, "Help me invite that lady up here, but if she doesn't want to, that's fine."

"Yes, I understand."

Kurokawa Kazuya sat back down: "But why do you want to see her?" He was a little curious.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to see what a so-called magician is all about." Ryougi Shiki took two steps back and sat down in the chair next to Kurokawa Kazuya.

This is the VIP seat in this clubhouse, specially made for Kurokawa Kazuya. It's a type of glass that allows you to see out from inside, but not from the outside; it's quite common.

After all, this kind of event isn't a one-off occurrence.

There will be all sorts of things to come.

It can be used for things like gathering materials.

Amidst cheers from outside and the start of the opening theme of the first season of "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure" playing on the big screen.

The event has officially begun.

While waiting for the magician to arrive, Kurokawa Kazuya finally figured out who that person was.

He thought carefully about the magician's attire and two figures came to mind.

One is 2B from the masterpiece game [NieR], and the other is Reand, the host of the Mystic Eyes Collection Train who appears in the El-Melloi II Case Files.

Now that I think about it, that woman must have been "Leian".

dong dong——

"Mr. Kurokawa, the person has arrived."

"Ah, let them in."

The next moment, two people walked in.

Kurokawa and Ryougi Shiki turned their gazes toward them.

The two people who walked in were a woman with a leather belt wrapped around her eyes and a thin man.

"Welcome to my paradise." Kurokawa Kazuya stood up, smiled, and said, "So... what brings you here?"

Chapter 165 Takeshi Koyasu Makes His Appearance

"The Demon Eye Collection Train... Hmm~ It sounds like it's quite interesting. Hey, are you going to this banquet next year... no, this year?" After Rei and the other left.

Ryougi Shiki said unexpectedly, "Hey, how about you take me with you? Didn't you say there were two spots available for you to take along?"

"Hmm...that's true, but it's dangerous over there." Kurokawa Kazuya reached out and took off her glasses, saying, "Besides, don't you hate wearing glasses?"

“It’s not that bad…” Ryougi Shiki said, taking out the necklace from her neck. “Besides, look, isn’t this also from Mystic Eyes? Even without the glasses, this thing should still work, right? Or… do you not have confidence in protecting me?”

"Well, even if you say that, I still won't take you." Kurokawa Kazuya chuckled. "Don't think that provoking me will work. Besides, your father would never agree, would he?"

"Then forget it." Ryougi Shiki sighed and sat back down.

Oh dear, she's switched personalities again.

Kurokawa and Miyakodo.

He could only make a rough judgment based on tone and intonation. Otherwise, he couldn't just ask "Are you Shiki/Ori?" for no reason... Besides, the pronunciations of "Shiki" and "Ori" are almost identical in Japanese.

However, he still asked one question.

"Has he switched personalities again?"

"No, it's still me." Ryougi Shiki sighed. "But... honestly, I thought I'd meet someone worth killing by then..."

"I also looked at that magician, but he wasn't good enough... So, how about you let me kill him?"

"I see, so that's why you wanted to see that magician."

“Ah…that’s right.” Ryougi Shiki looked at her hands and said, “These hands always want to destroy something, to ruin something, and I don’t know when they will be unable to resist.”

That's what she said, but she kept holding back... holding back her chaotic impulses.

"Well, if you really can't resist, you can try killing me." Kurokawa Kazuya smiled. "Yeah, of course I'll fight back with all my might."

"Ha, never mind then, I'm fine now... never mind, it's alright."

[Now let's begin the second group!]

Such sounds came from outside.

"Mode."

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"I will always be with you."

"You...you bastard—"

......

"What's wrong?" the gaunt man asked Lei Anzhuo, puzzled.

"Do you know who that child next to Kurokawa Kazuya is?"

"I...I don't know."

“Hmm… that deep killing intent.” Leandro turned around: “That Kurokawa is indeed not simple.”

"That's quite normal." The man wasn't surprised. "How many magicians are easy to deal with? Everyone has their own trump cards, and considering the limitations of magic itself, it's not an exaggeration to say that a single magic trick is a world in itself. What? Should we investigate Kurokawa and Miya's parents' information?"

“No, there’s no need.” The woman shook her head. “Don’t pry into the secrets of such magicians, or you might get cursed. Don’t forget, he’s the kind of person who can get the Jewel Elder to speak. Just be careful.”

......

Group 2, Group 3, Group 4.

One group after another passed by.

Takehito Koyasu took a deep breath outside the recording studio to calm his nervous heart.

This time, only 16 people will be recruited: 13 men and 3 women...

Although we will continue to recruit voice actors for other characters who appeared in the first film here, it may not be as big a deal then, and there may not be as many people watching.

After all, only the first chapter is complete so far; the rest, including recruiting Zeppeli and the two Dark Knights, is done using edited comics.

Today we're mainly recruiting voice actors for the first episode; the number of applicants will gradually decrease after that.

Although, based on my experience today, the number of people who played here wasn't much less, but... today was definitely the most popular day.
