"Thank you very much for everything, everyone."
As soon as Kyo finished filming his scenes, all the actors and several mbers of the production staff gathered to say goodbye to him. They suggested throwing a party to celebrate the end of his filming, but he declined.
After all, he had school tomorrow.
Besides, his family was preparing to move into their new house, and he would be very busy. Of course, Kyo was going to hire movers to handle the relocation, but even so, he still had a lot of things to organize himself.
So, after saying goodbye to everyone, he headed ho in the car with Daiki, Rina, and his mother.
On the way, Rina congratulated him on finishing all of his scenes and also took the opportunity to talk about his new job—a comrcial campaign for Nintendo.
When he heard about the offer he had received from Nintendo, Kyo couldn't believe it.
He was just a newcor to the entertainnt industry. Kyo was even more surprised when he found out that he had been hired because of his first advertising campaign. He had done a photoshoot for a popular clothing brand in the past.
Kyo even asked Rikuya several tis if he wasn't being hired because he is "Aoi Haruki," but every ti, he received the sa answer.
"They didn't hire you because of that."
Hearing that made Kyo happy. It ant he was being recognized as a model and actor.
"The comrcial shoot will take place in three days. I'll send you the script."
"A script? Then the comrcial is bigger than I thought."
"It's Nintendo. They have money to spend." Rina smiled. "But you'd better prepare yourself. The fewer mistakes you make, the better. Try to make a good impression. If this advertising campaign is successful, you'll receive many more job offers."
"Don't worry. I'm known as 'the actor who never makes mistakes.'"
"No one calls you that."
"I call myself that. I'll never make a mistake, I promise."
It was a bold promise, but Kyo was smiling, making it clear that he truly ant it.
Huff~~
Rina sighed and said, "Just be careful."

POV: Kyo
A few days passed, and the day of the Nintendo comrcial shoot finally arrived. But before heading to the studio, I was having a eting with Asuna and several animators to discuss the music video for "Idol."
Of course, the eting was online.
The animators had already started working, and they wanted my opinion on what they had done so far. When I looked at the fras they had drawn, I was quite satisfied.
They had used all the designs I created and were also following the storyboards.
The eting lasted less than an hour.
I gave them so feedback and also told them that I would make a few edits to the storyboards later that week. They would only be minor changes. As soon as the eting ended, Asuna sent a private ssage.
[You did well.]
[Thanks. I tried to act as professionally as possible. Since I'm the youngest one here, I have to show that I know what I'm talking about and act maturely so the animators can respect .]
[Hahaha! Don't worry, you're already highly respected by them. You'd still be respected even if you acted very childish.]
[Well...]
After chatting with Asuna for a little longer, I left my computer to get ready. I checked my phone before heading to the bathroom and noticed that I had received a few ssages from Mr. Kuroda.
I t with Mr. Kuroda yesterday and finally signed the contract to publish "Tensura." The contract was far more generous than the previous ones. I was going to make a lot—really a lot—of money from this work.
[I'm contacting you to let you know that Volu 5 of "Oregairu" is already in the publication process, and we need the illustrations. Also, we're looking for an artist to illustrate the first volu of "Tensura." Since it's your work, finding an illustrator should be easy.]
Reading his ssage reminded that I had completely forgotten to draw the illustrations for Volu 5 of Oregairu.
On top of that, I hadn't told Mr. Kuroda that I wanted to do the illustrations for Tensura as well.
I imdiately sent him a ssage.
[I'll send the illustrations for Volu 5 of Oregairu by email tomorrow. And regarding Tensura, I'll be doing the illustrations myself.]
Kuroda replied quickly.
[Looking forward to seeing the illustrations!]
Urgh, thank goodness I can draw really fast.
"Kyo, you still haven't taken a shower!? You're going to be late!"
"Don't worry, Mom."

As soon as I got into the car, I turned on my iPad and grabbed my stylus to start drawing. The mont I opened the drawing app and began making quick strokes across the screen, Rina looked surprised.
"What are you doing?"
"The illustrations for the next volu of Oregairu. I need to submit them by tomorrow."
"By tomorrow?"
"Yeah, I need to finish all the illustrations today. I sent the manuscript to the publisher, but I forgot that I hadn't done the artwork yet."
I chuckled and kept sketching. The rough draft of the illustration quickly began to take shape.
My mother and Rina watched attentively.
"Wow, that's amazing. It was just a bunch of random lines a minute ago," my mother said, completely fascinated by my drawing.
"It's Yukino! It's scary how fast you can draw."
"This is only the sketch. The line art takes a bit longer."
But even then, I could do it quickly.
Ti passed.
I started working on the line art as fast as I could. Even the constant movent of the car didn't interfere with my work. I was impressed by the control I had over my own hand.
Then the car stopped just as I finished the line art and was starting to color it.
"What a sha, it was fun watching~~" Rina said disappointedly.
I stepped out of the car and found myself standing in front of a massive building.
'I'm excited,' I thought as I handed my iPad to my mother.
