After leaving the guard room, Josiah returned to his messy room.
As such, Josh made his way over to the bookshelf in the room that was neatly arranged, and pulled out a book titled "General History of the World".
This book was written by a human and recorded the development of human civilization in another world. This demon prince seemed to be very interested in human civilization.
To Josiah's surprise, this book was written in English …
Josiah tilted his head and looked at a mirror on the table. The appearance of the demon in the mirror was almost the same as his appearance on Earth.
This reminded Josiah of the theory of parallel worlds. Perhaps this demon prince was himself in another world … After all, even his name was the same as his.
However, this book was written in English, which was a great help to Josiah. Josiah wanted to know to what extent the human civilization in the other world had developed and what kind of political environment it was.
If it was an ancient feudal monarchy, it would be meaningless for Josiah to show the movie to the commoners who could not even read.
"The Council of Seven? Praise the light of magic that shines on the whole of Noland? "
Josiah read the modern history recorded in the book and let out a sigh of relief.
The human civilization in the other world was more democratic than Josiah imagined. Although it was not a modern democratic republic, it was similar to a parliamentary republic.
To put it simply, the human society in this world had achieved 'equality'. This equality was not achieved by the system and revolution, but by the world itself that was full of magic.
The magical elements in the human world were shockingly abundant. Basically, even the farmers at the bottom of society could make fireballs. This world was truly a world where everyone was a mage.
Therefore, the status of human society was also determined by 'knowledge'. The more magical knowledge one had, the higher the social status one could have. Under such a social system, there were not many illiterate people.
However, this situation was also the situation of the main countries in the human world. This world also had the existence of many countries with a monarchy system and a monarchical system.
Just like Earth, this world was incomparably vast, and the number of countries could not be counted with a single digit.
The closest country to the Demon Realm was one of the most prosperous countries in the magic civilization – Noland.
Therefore, Josh decided that the first stop for the movie would be in this country, which was filled with magic casters.
All that was left was to choose the script. Josiah shouldered the heavy responsibility of making humans stop hating demons and changing their view of demons as evil. Josiah felt that it was not too difficult to do this. He just had to make humans worship demons.
The worship here wasn't referring to holding some evil ritual to summon the devil and make him a believer of the Evil God. Josiah was referring to … making the devil an idol.
In order to save their race that was on the verge of extinction, the demons decided to stand up and become idols!
That was probably the feeling …
In order to create a good image of the demon, Josiah currently thought of two scripts that could be implemented. The first was "Beauty and the Beast" and the second was "This Assassin Is Not Too Cold".
Josiah felt that "Beauty and the Beast" did not need to be described too much. This story was definitely a household name. Perhaps some people felt that it was childish, but the reason was that almost everyone had heard of this story when they were young. This also proved that this beautiful fairy tale was spread in human civilization. It was definitely not inferior to the stories written by the two great fairy tale masters, Andersen and the Brothers Grimm.
"This Assassin Is Not Too Cold" was one of Josiah's favorite movies. The story was about a professional assassin and a little girl. An uncle and a loli was a topic that would never change in human history. Without any suspense, this movie made the female lead, Natalie Portman, and the male lead, Jean Renault, the goddess and god of Josiah's childhood.
And what these two scripts had in common was that they could make the audience fall in love with the "beast" and "killer". As long as these two characters were replaced with demons and slightly adapted, there would be no feeling of inconsistency at all.
Actor Josiah still had no clue about "This Assassin Is Not Too Cold", but actor Josiah already had a candidate in mind for "Beauty and the Beast".
Therefore, it might be a little regretful that "This Assassin Is Not Too Cold", which almost defined Josiah's initial aesthetic standards, had to be delayed for a period of time. So, Josiah decided to film "Beauty and the Beast" first.
"Servant, go and call Zenas here."
Josiah said to the water elemental servant standing at the door.
This water elemental did not have its own thoughts and acted as a messenger, a bit like a pigeon. After bowing slightly to Josiah, she went to carry out the task.
Josiah also began to write the script.
Ever since coming to this world, Josiah found that his memory had become terrifyingly clear. Whether it was the memory of Earth or the memory of the demon prince, they were all stored in Josiah's mind, waiting for Josiah to "pull" them out at any time.
Josiah even clearly remembered the patterns on the back of a ladybug that he caught when he was ten years old.
For the story of "Beauty and the Beast", Josiah had read the original English version, followed by the animated version created by Disney, which was also the most widely circulated version, so all the details of the story were clearly remembered by Josiah.
All he needed to do was to write the general outline of the story and write the general details.
Josiah took a stack of white paper, which was originally used by the demon prince to draw some strange designs. The pen was also the charcoal pencil that Josiah was most familiar with.
Josiah wrote the name "Beauty and the Demon" on the first piece of paper, and the ground in Josiah's room began to tremble slightly.
"Your Highness, what can I do for you?"
Zenas arrived much faster than Josiah expected. He stood at the door of Josiah's room and did not step in. There was a large pile of messy paper on the floor of Josiah's room, and the flames on Zenas' body could very well ignite them.
"Zenas, how's your acting?"
Josiah looked at the sinful demon and asked.
"Acting?" Zenas seemed to be unable to understand the word Josiah used.
"Simply put, do you know how to deceive those humans?"
Josiah used a method that this demon could understand.
"Of course, Your Highness … This is a compulsory lesson for every demon. Although I'm far from the Succubus and Ghost races, I can still deceive some stupid and ignorant humans."
Zenas didn't seem as powerful on the inside as he looked.
Deceiving is a compulsory lesson for every demon? In other words, every demon is an actor? If you treat deceiving as a racial talent, it would be a waste of your talents if you didn't become a politician.
"Alright, then stand there and don't move."
Josiah gestured at Zenas' body proportions and began to draw a concept image on the script.
As a sinful demon, Zenas' head was reminiscent of the lion beast in Digimon. As long as he didn't show such a fierce expression and didn't spit fire from his mouth, he seemed like a rather docile big cat.
This premise was built on the premise that the terrifying scales on Zenas' body and the lava flowing through the gaps between the scales didn't exist. Just the faint green flames on Zenas' body was enough to make Josiah feel that no one would be willing to touch this big cat.
However, this wasn't a problem. Josh, who was originally a videogame designer, wasn't slacking at all when he drew a concept image. In just a few moments, he had sketched out a menacing and menacing Zenas in an exquisite suit.
"Zenas, won't your clothes burn?" When Josiah reached this point, he suddenly realized that the clothes this demon was wearing looked like primitive animal hide, but it covered the most important parts of the body.
If he wanted Zenas to wear the suit on the blueprint, he would have to at least retract the flames on his body.
"No, Your Highness, I can control the temperature of the flames on my body," Zenas said.
This was a really convenient setting. He didn't have to worry about the clothes burning, so Josiah could start on the costume design. Another important thing was to find the female lead of , Belle.
It was unlikely that a human female would be able to do that. A slightly more timid human female would probably faint from fear while acting with Zenas, and a slightly more daring human female Magician would probably just throw a Flame Blast at Zenas' face.
Josiah needed to ensure the safety of his actors during filming, so it was better to choose a female demon.
"Zenas, I have a mission for you."
Josiah took out another piece of paper and quickly wrote a notice, then stamped it with a seal that represented his identity.
"Please give me your orders." Zenas bowed slightly, waiting for Josiah's orders.
"Go and find me the prettiest girl in the city."
