Having made the decision to produime in this world, Edward had been tirelessly transcribing the anime plots from his memory onto paper for the past few days. Among the numerous isekai anime he remembered, he quickly narrowed his focus to two.
The first was "Fullmetal Alchemist," a legendary ahat Edward believed held an unshakable p the hearts of every ahusiast. The story's blend of cssic adventure and steampunk elements made it an ideal didate for adaptation in this world. However, due to the teical challenges involved in designing automail limbs aing alchemy, not to mention the need for steampunk visuals, he realized that it was beyond his current capabilities.
Oher hand, "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!" offered a simpler setting and a more straightforward story tered around a small town. Edward had also started to envision the cast for this adaptation, making it the first anime he would embark on given the circumstances.
"Anime live-a adaptation? A proposal? Lord Edward, what are all these things? Even if our debts are insurmountable, you don't o worry about this..."
"Let's put that aside for now."
Ign Winry's questions, Edward smiled a aside the "Fullmetal Alchemist" manuscript. He then opehe thiack of papers taining the proposal for "KonoSuba" and instructed Winry, "Take a look at this and tell me what you think."
"This? This is something called 'KonoSuba."
Although Winry erplexed, she was always known for her decisiveness. Without further ado, she started reading the live-a adaptation script written by Edward himself.
"KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!"—the title sounded disanized and g a coherent structure, but iy, this isekai anime had beeremely popur in Edward's previous world. Its success was not just due to its eaining story but also its unique and endearing characters.
The anime follows the story of a game-loving shut-in, Kazuma, who dies in a freak act and is then brought to another world with the help of a goddess named Aqua. In this new world, they are joined by other main characters:
Kazuma, who occasionally dispys strength but is mostly cowardly and zy.Aqua, a goddess ears majestic but is arrogant, clumsy, and often causes trouble.Megumin, a crimson demon girl with immense magical talent focused solely on explosion magic.Darkness, a noblewoman's daughter who is actually a masochistic female knight.This four-member party embarks on a series of hirious and sometimes heartwarming adventures, making "KonoSuba" a unique and enjoyable isekai story.
"Such a peculiar bination..."
As expected, upon reading the introdu, Winry immediately voiced her doubts. However, Edward merely smiled aured for her to tinue reading.
"Hahaha!"
Even the usually posed Winry couldn't help bursting into ughter when she saw the bizarre antics of the characters iory, despite the ck of localization in the script.
Winry's struggle to maintain her dignity in the presence of her master while bursting into ughter, Edward couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Edward loved this anime, but he cked fiden transp the stiven the cultural differences and the unique references tained in "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World." Many elements would be hard to grasp in this Western fantasy world.
However, seeing Winry ughiily at the ued script, Edward was reassured aermi this ao life in this world.
"While the story might seem odd when reading it, it's incredibly fun. Edward, I didn't know you had the talent to be a . Are you pnning to bee a to repay the debt? I think this work could gain popurity if written as a novel! Earning a royalty might help alleviate the family's urgent situation..."
"T it to life. I'm not cut out to be a , but I'll find a way to present this story to the world for the sake of saving the Durin Family."
"Present it? You said you weren't pnning to write a novel?"
Evidently, Winry didn't uand the idea of presenting a story in any way other than writing.
With a smile, Edward replied, "For now, Winry, please help me draft a letter."
"A letter? Where is it going?"
"The Imperial Mage Tower."
"What?!"
Winry was taken aback upon hearing the name, but under Edward's stant prodding, she finally went to the study aurned with a drafted letter.
Sitting quietly for a while, Edward finally collected his thoughts and picked up a pen to start writing.
To my dear Miss Helena Eleanor,
It's been a while. I hope you've been well, Miss Helena. I heard that you've made some new breakthroughs in your studies of fire-elemental magic at the Mage Tower.
gratutions! Judging by the time, you must be nearing graduation. I envy you for that.
But, Miss Helena, have you successfully pleted the graduatios for elemental magic? Have you mao pay off the massive debt you incurred in the past due to your extravagant purchases of mana crystals? Are you still getting into trouble with the teachers for recklessly casting Fireball, Fire Bst, and Explosion in your csses?
Haha, regardless of the circumstances, as a friend who used to skip csses and go crazy with you, I genuinely wish you happiness.
I still remember that day when you and I made a pledge in the barbecue restaurant just two streets away from the Mage Tower, promising to ge the prevailing culture of blindly following authority in the world of magic. It still stirs my heart with passion when I think of it.
However, it appears you still haven't returhe money for that barbecue. That's a regrettable situation.
Of course, I uand that someone who only knows how to use Fireball, Fire Bst, and Explosion 't find a proper job to repay the debt. So, I have no iion of pursuing legal a, but I'd like to offer you an opportunity.
During the Mage Tower's extended holiday, pay a visit to the Durin Family castle in the Southerory. We have aing pn awaiting you here. The basithly sary is five gold s, with full bes including insurand a pension pn. Depending on your performance, we discuss potential sary increases. I hope you'll sider it.
May the radianagic shine upon the world.
Your former cssmate expelled from the Mage Tower, Baron Durin Edward.
