Returning from the Guardian chamber, Joshua went back towards his messy room.
After cleaning up, Joshua walked towards the corner where neatly arranged bookshelves lied, from there he took out a book called “History of the world”.
This book was written by humans and records the development of the human civilization of this world.
What surprised Joshua was this book was written in English…
Joshua looked at the mirror which was on the table, surprisingly the appearance of the Chaos demon’s was almost identical to the way he looked on the earth.
This reminded Joshua of the parallel world theory, perhaps this demon prince was his other worlds ownself…After all, he even has the same name as him.
However, it greatly helped Joshua that this book ”History of the world” was written in English. Joshua from this book could know to what extent human civilization has developed and what kind of political environment exists in this world.
If it was an ancient feudal monarchy form of government, Joshua was afraid that even if he makes a film the ordinary people won’t even understand the characters in it, then it would be all pointless.
“Seven People parliament?”
Joshua was a little relieved when he read the records of modern history in the book.
This different world of human civilization was more democratic than what he thought. Although it was not like the modern democratic republic system, it was similar to a parliamentary republic system.
In simple terms, this world’s human society has realized “Everyone is equal”, this equality was not caused by a system or organization but was resolved by this world of magic itself.
The magic element in this human world was so abundant that even a farmer at the bottom of society could throw fireballs. This was really a magician’s world.
Therefore, the status of the human in society was determined by the knowledge, the more a person has mastered magical knowledge, the higher his social status would be. In this kind of society, illiterates don’t need to be few.
However, there were still a lot of countries where the ancient feudal monarchy form of government exists.
Like earth, this world was very vast, the number of countries couldn’t be counted in a single digit.
One of the closest countries to the demon kingdom was “Nolan”, which was also one of the most prosperous and developed magic civilization.
Joshua decided that his first stop for the movie would be in this country, where everyone was a magician.
Now the rest was to pick a script, Joshua was bearing the responsibility to make humans stop hating demons, to change the image of the demon as evil in human’s eyes. Joshua thought it was not too difficult to do this, he could let humans worship the demon.
Here the worship doesn’t refer to holding an evil ritual, summoning the devil and becoming the believer of the evil cult..but refers to worshipping Demon as an idol.
To save their endangered race, the demons have decided to stand up as idols!
Perhaps this kind of feeling…
In order to create a good image of demons, Joshua thought of two possible scripts, the first was ”Beauty and the Beast” and the second is “Leon: The Professional”.
“Beauty and the Beast”, Joshua felt there was no need to think too much about it, this story was absolutely a household name, some people might find it childish; childish because almost everyone has heard this story in their childhood, which once again proves this beautiful fairy tales popularity in the human culture and was not less than Hans Christian Anderson and Brother Grimm’s fairy tales.
“Leon: The Professional” was one of Joshua’s most favorite movies. It tells the story of a professional killer and a little girl. Uncle and loli, this subject would never change in the history of humans.
The movie actress Natalie Portman and actor Jean Reno became Joshua’s childhood goddess and god.
The similarity between the two scripts was that it can make the audience fall in love with “Beast” and the “Killer”.If these two characters were replaced by a demon and some rearrangement was made, then it won’t create any sense of violation.
For “Leon: the professional” actors, Joshua currently doesn’t have any candidate, but he already has a candidate for “Beauty and the Beast” movie.
So it may be little regrettable that “Leon: The Professional” movie which defined Joshua’s early aesthetic standard, needs to be delayed for a while. Joshua decided to first shoot ”Beauty and the Beast”
“Servant, go and call Zenas,” Joshua said to the water element who has been standing near the door.
The water element has no thoughts of his own, it acts as a messenger, similar to a pigeon, after showing a small courtesy to Joshua, she went to perform the task.
Joshua also began to write the script.
Since coming to this world, Joshua has discovered that his memory has become horribly distinct. Whether it was the memory of the earth or memories of the demon prince, all were stored in Joshua’s mind waiting for him to take out at any time.
He even remembers the dots on the back of Ladybug which he caught at the age of ten.
Joshua first read “Beauty and the Beast” original English edition then later he watched Disney’s animated version, which was also one of the most widely circulated versions of the story, therefore Joshua clearly remembers all the details of the story.
He wrote general details and created a rough framework.
Joshua took a pile of white papers, which was originally used by the demon prince to draw some strange designs. The writing instrument was a charcoal pencil that Joshua was most familiar with.
On the first piece of white paper, Joshua wrote the title “Beauty and the Demon”.Suddenly, the floor of the room began to quiver.
“Your Highness, what can I do for you?”
Zenas came much faster than Joshua expected. He stood near the door and didn’t step into the room, big piles of papers were scattered on the floor, so if Zena’s steps inside, the flames from his body will ignite it.
“Zenas, How are your acting skills?”
Joshua asked, looking at the Sin demon.
“Acting skill?”Zenas couldn’t seem to understand Joshua’ vocabulary
“To simply speak, can you deceive those humans?”
Joshua changed his words in the way in which the demon could understand.
“Of course, your highness. This is a mandatory requirement of each devil, although I am far inferior to succubus and ghost race, I can easily deceive those ignorant human beings”
Zena’s interior does not seem as strong as his outward appearance.
Is deceiving a compulsory course for every demon? So does it mean every demon was an actor? This race’s ability to act, if he couldn’t hold this power then it was a great waste of their talent.
“Good, you just stand there and don’t move.”
Joshua took a close look at the figure of Zenas and began to draw a conceptual picture of the script.
Zenas belongs to the Sin demon race, his head is similar to an image of a digital baby lion. As long as he doesn’t expose his fierce look and his mouth doesn’t spit out the fire, then he would look like a very docile cat.
This premise was based on the fact that the flow of lava doesn’t exist between his scales. The light green flame that was twining around Zenas made Joshua feel like that nobody would want to touch this big cat.
However, this is not a problem for him, Joshua originally was a game designer. To draw a conceptual picture was not difficult. He immediately sketched a delicate dress and robe which will synchronize with this ferocious beast look.
“Zenas, don’t your clothes get burned?” When Joshua was sketching, he suddenly realized that the demon was wearing something similar to animal hide, which only covered the important parts of the body.
To make Zenas put on the designed dress, at least Joshua must put off that flame.
“No, your Highness. I can control the temperature of flame on me,” Zenas said.
It was a really convenient setting, Joshua doesn’t have to worry about clothes getting burned. He started to design clothes. However, there was another important thing, that was to find the actress for the role of Belle in” Beauty and the Demon”
Human women were not possible, suppose a little timid human girl and Zenas act together, the girl would pass out from the fear. If there was a slightly brave magician girl, then it was expected that she would directly throw magic on Zenas’ face.
Joshua needs to ensure the personal safety of the actor during the film, so he has to choose a female demon.
“Zenas, I am giving you a mission.”
Joshua took out another piece of paper and quickly wrote an announcement, he put a stamp on it which represented his identity.
“Please tell me.” Zenas bowed slightly and was waiting for Joshua’s order.
“Go and get the most beautiful girl in town”
Joshua said.
