The beginning of "KonoSuba" was very straightforward, and the pace was fast. It basically told the story of how the otaku protagonist was deceived by the goddess and decided to bee an adventurer in another world.

  Of course, this was not without bes. The goddess promised the protagonist that he could choose anything t to the other world, including powerful oraordinary intelligence, divine luck, and so on.

  The protagonist, living up to expectations, chose the goddess in front of him, who was annoying no matter how you looked at her, as his wish dition. From then oarted his challenging life in another world.

  This openiion had no major difficulties in filming. The main challenge was the props, whether it was the numerous magic circles or the magic crystals used for special effects, all of which were handmade by Edward.

  Fortunately, Edward, as the prodigy of the Mage Tower, had reached the level of a grand mage at the you age. Otherwise, so many magic circles might have drained him pletely.

  As for the wings behind the angel who would be the goddess, Winry spent a long time struggling before relutly creating a pair that looked presentable. And, in the case of the actress pying that ahere was no doubt that it was her.

  ......

  Early the m.

  "Last night, you should have memorized your lines. When ag ter, remember to exaggerate as much as possible, show off your facial expressions! The more exaggerated, the fu will be, and the audience will love it!"

  As Edward spoke, he g the two individuals who had obviously stayed up te, with dark circles uheir eyes. Then, offhandedly, he asked, " I ask what you two were doing st night? Don't tell me you got so engrossed in the script that you couldn't sleep."

  "......"

  Immediately, Zat and Aya, whose ihoughts were exposed, turheir heads in embarrassment. It wasn't until Edward sighed and asked Winry to do their makeup to hide the fatigue on their faces that they regaiheir posure.

  To be ho, Edward uood the two who had stayed up all night reading the script.

  After all, he had been in a simir state when big shows, only realizing that it was already m when the ending credits rolled.

  For these inhabitants of another world, who had probably never entered su eaining script as "KonoSuba," staying up all night to read it was pletely uandable.

  However, no matter how uanding Edward was, he couldn't rex his expectations for the two actors' performances. On the trary, sih of them had now read the script, uood the roles they were pying, they had to perform in eveer dition!

  So, with everyourning to the familiar small room, the formal shooting began.

  .........

  Ich-dark small room, the plot of fooling the protagonist had progressed to the sed half.

  After various is and persuasions, the protagonist Zat had gradually been drawn in by the goddess's words, seriously sidering how to cross into another world and reach the pinnacle of life.

  With the sudden brilliance of the magic crystals, the goddess, who had just stood up from her chair, struck a rather delicate pose and loudly excimed, "e, choose! Let me bestow upon you an invincible ability!"

  At this moment, Winry on the side promptly threw various cards filled with abilities down from the skylight upstairs.

  Although Zat was surprised by this sight, he early looked through the cards that dispyed various powers. For a moment, he found it challenging to decide what kind of extraordinary ability he wa to the other world.

  However, during his serious ption, the goddess sitting in the distance, lig her fingers aing roasted sweet potatoes she had seemingly jured from nowhere, impatiently said, "Hey, hurry up! It doesn't matter what you choose; I'm not expeg much from a shut-in who stays at home all day."

  "I-I'm not a shut-in! I just happeo die at home, that's all. It's not like I'm a plete hikikomori!"

  Although Zat immediately refuted, he seemed to ck vigor at this moment.

  Oher side, the goddess lig her fingers pletely ignored him and said impatiently, "Whatever is fine. you hurry up? There are still many deceased waiting for me to greet them."

  "!!"

  This person became sant just because she looked cute!

  Uo ehe goddess's attitude towards him, Zat, with ched fists and gasping for breath, slowly stood up, gritting his teeth as he said, "Decide quickly, huh? Then, I'll decide... what t to the other world?"

  "Yes, yes, you decide already?!"

  Swallowing the sweet potato in her mouth, the goddess seemed to have pletely lost patieurning her head away.

  Oher side, Zat slowly extended his fingers and said, "Then it's you."

  "....... "

  "....... "

  With a long sile wasn't until the magic circle for world-crossing gradually lit up on the side that the goddess, who oio go to another world, failed to grasp her own situation. She stood there dumbfounded.

  "What did you just say—"

  Before the words could be finished, with a fsh of light, Winry, adorned with two pairs of wings, suddenly crushed the magic crystal in her hand and fell directly from the skylight in the ceiling.

  In the abundant light, she, who had memorized her lines, spoke slowly, "I uand. So, Lady Aqua, I'll take over your responsibilities from now on. Zat's wish has been aowledged as per the rules."

  "Huh... huh?!!!"

  pletely ign Aqua's astonishment, the magic circle that emerged from the ground enveloped both her and Zat. And the goddess, who finally became aware of the situation, excimed in surprise, "Isn't this strange? Is this a joke? No, wait—"

  But fag her panic, the angel pyed by Winry in the distance simply shook her head without ging her expression.

  "No way!! This is toe. How a goddess be taken to another world?! It should be invalid! This kind of choice should be invalid!! Wait, wait!!"

  "Have a safe journey, Lady Aqua. On the day you safely defeat the Demon King, I will send someo you back."

  "I 't! Although I'm a goddess and have regeive and healing abilities, I have no bat power! I 't possibly defeat the Demon King! Ahhh!!"

  No matter how Aqua struggled, the magic circle that had already started showed no signs of stopping due to her as.

  At the same time, Zat, in the distance, was ughiily with a triumphant expression. "Hehehe, what does it feel like to be taken away by a man you looked down upon? Hahaha, you've been designated as the thing I bring with me. Since you're a goddess, use your divine power to let me live easily!"

  At this moment, the facial expressions unleashed by Zat almost caused Edward, even in the shadows, to nearly lose trol of his expression. He was certain that the charisma dispyed by Edward was almost on par with the male protagonist in the inal anime.

  And upon seeing Zat's appearance...

  "No, I 't. I actually have to go to another world with this kind of man! Nooo!"

  "Ahahaha!"

  With the eruption of intense light, as if traversing through time and space, the first segment of the plot cluded.

  "Cut! Excellent! I feel your charisma, even I feel it. It's like you've pletely entered your roles. Whether it's Zat with that satisfying smile when deceiving people or Aya with that painful expression when being deceived, it's like the characters in the plot!"

  In the face of Edward's ear and approving words, the two individuals in the room had no response. On the trary...

  "Hahaha, you fool! You got deceived by me! e, let's go to another world together!!"

  "No, I absolutely won't go to another world with a useless knight like you!"

  "......"

  Seeing this se, Edward, who didn't know what to say, only revealed a subtle smile. Then, he violently threw the magic crystal in his hand and loudly excimed, "It's good to immerse yourself in the role, but please adjust back before eating, hey!"
