This is unbelievable!

For the girl’s confident words, a trace of vigilance also inevitably arose in the man’s heart.

Even if he could sense that the girl before him posed no threat to him, her suspected identity as the Behind-the-Scenes King still compelled him to be vigilant.

“I don’t care what you are plotting. Remember well, the one who kills you is Remnant, the strongest of the Northern Empire.”

Remnant infused his battle aura into the heavy sword in his hand, a bloodthirsty smile appearing on his face.

The Behind-the-Scenes King, who could stir up the entire landscape and wanted to ruin the good deeds of the Dark Legion, was indeed a good prey worthy of his respect.

“Let me use this strongest strike to send you, the conspirator, on your way!”

When the heavy sword was wrapped in orange-red battle aura, the calm face of the girl finally revealed an expression of relief.

“Do you have any last words to leave behind? I will relay them to the world for you.”

The girl’s expression fell into Remnant’s eyes, raising the joy of a victor in his heart.

Letting her say her last words could be considered mercy from the victor to the loser.

The girl put down the teacup in her hand and stood up from the seat behind the desk.

‘I wonder if Young Master will be angry because of my arbitrary actions…’

‘But exchanging my lowly life for the life of the Dark Legion’s strongest combat power before me.’

‘This seems to be the exchange called maximizing benefits that Young Master speaks of, right?’

Thinking this, she slowly walked to a spot directly facing Remnant.

“As far as I know, this stronghold took ten years to build. It is indeed impressive that you could break through here.”

“However, penetrating deep into the enemy’s hinterland alone is in itself a reckless act.”

The girl spoke word by word, silently estimating the time in her heart.

In the instant when Remnant revealed a furious expression because of her words.

“As for last words, I have nothing I want to say to you people.”

“If I have to say something… it’s probably that there are many things I haven’t done perfectly, haven’t satisfied Young Master, and can’t be by Young Master’s side all the time.”

Hearing the words “Young Master” in the girl’s speech, Remnant’s eyes immediately widened.

‘What? This guy isn’t the Behind-the-Scenes King?’

“You guy!”

Just as he was about to swing the heavy sword in his hand and use sword aura to shred the guy before him into pieces.

His ears keenly caught the sound of a series of mechanisms operating.

The girl looked at him without the slightest fear, a mocking smile appearing on her face.

“Military magic crossbows, a total of three hundred, six volleys in total. If you can survive, you should be considered the strongest in the world.”

As the words fell, sounds of mechanisms being triggered rang out one after another.

The girl took off the pocket watch from her neck and held it tightly with both hands.

‘Young Master, you have to take good care of yourself after I’m gone…’

‘Sister Lim is a bit clumsy; I wonder if she can take over my work?’

One after another, crossbow bolts emitting flickering light shot out from all directions. Soon, the two people in the room completely lost their breath.

A gold pocket watch with a broken surface fell into a pool of dark red blood. On the surface was a photo of three people together.

After intermittently reproducing the scene in her mind completely from a single-person perspective…

Kazakami Ritsu reached out and rubbed the space between her eyebrows, which was throbbing with pain.

A silence fell upon the recording area. Neither of the two people behind the soundproof glass spoke.

Sound Director Yoshida pondered for a long time before slowly turning his head to look in the direction of the producer.

The producer, whose expression had fallen into a daze, seemed to be startled awake by his movement and snapped back to reality.

‘Why are you looking at me? Do you still need to ask my opinion on this?’

The producer was a bit confused; he couldn’t pick out any problems with Miss Kazakami’s performance just now.

Sound Director Yoshida glanced at his old partner with a look like he was looking at trash, then silently turned his head back.

“Very good. Your performance satisfies me greatly. Barring any accidents, this role should be yours. Good work.”

After saying these words, Sound Director Yoshida saw the girl across the soundproof glass, whose mental state was still reasonably good originally, wither at a speed visible to the naked eye.

‘Sigh, this is probably the downside of the immersive acting method.’

After muttering this in his heart, Sound Director Yoshida took off his soundproof headphones, turned his head again, and looked at the producer with a fierce gaze.

“What are you still sitting here for? Why don’t you go chat with this child and the others about work schedule arrangements?”

The producer was stunned at first, then stood up from his seat with a face full of grievance.

‘Too excessive. Clearly, I am the producer!’

‘This old boy Yoshida, a mere Sound Director, actually dares to order me around like this!’

Muttering curses, the producer walked out of the recording booth and called the few people who had passed the audition to him.

After watching the producer leave, Sound Director Yoshida put his headphones back on. A brand-new auditioner had already replaced the previous one in the recording area.

Unsurprisingly, Kazakami Ritsu successfully passed the audition for the role of Leah.

After learning about the work schedule from the producer, Kazakami Ritsu realized that her rest days had been reduced to two.

Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays were for the dubbing of Legend of the Raging Wind, while Saturdays and Sundays were occupied by Isekai Reincarnation.

However, having said that, with such work efficiency, the recording of both works could probably be completed in about a month.

The casting for Legend of the Raging Wind seemed to be officially completed; Big Sister Tooru had already sent a reminder message about starting work next week.

Ever since she secured the role of Shu, the second female lead, her manager seemed to have fallen into a strange state.

Big Sister Tooru seemed… to want her to play female lead roles even more than Kazakami Ritsu herself did.

So much so that the job for Isekai Reincarnation was actually accepted by Kazakami Ritsu herself upon invitation.

After today’s audition officially ended, Kazakami Ritsu stared at Big Sister Tooru’s apologetic reply on her phone, sighed lightly, and looked at Umemiya Hiro beside her.

“Senior, what do you do when your manager has too high expectations for you?”

Umemiya Hiro, who was sharing the news of passing the audition for Kazakami Ritsu in the small group, put down her phone, a somewhat surprised expression appearing on her face.

‘Do you want to listen to what you are saying? Isn’t it a good thing for a manager to have high expectations for you?’

“I also climbed to my current position by getting my first female lead role through the agency’s maneuvering.”

“The manager is the representative of the agency. The manager’s expectations for you also represent the agency’s expectations for you.”

Speaking to this point, Umemiya Hiro paused slightly.

“Doesn’t this precisely indicate that the agency thinks you deserve better roles? You idiot!”

Listening to the explanation of the industry senior, Kazakami Ritsu finally had a feeling of enlightenment.

‘I see… Wait, that means I’m about to enjoy the agency’s resource tilt towards me?!’
