For "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World" to truly be promoted, the Southern Adventurers Guild clearly spared no expehis could be seen from the ge imosphere of the entire Adventurers Guild.

  As for Edward, although he was also looking forward to the film's release, since he had entrusted all the preparations for the release to the Adventurers Guild, he didn't intervene much. However, he would still personally supervise the premiere, as he didn't dare to entrust the world's first movie premiere to a bunch of people who knew nothing about movies.

  As for the general information obtained from the Adventurers Guild, Edward couldn't help but trust the Guild Leader of the Southern Adventurers Guild even more. As expected, the Guild Leader followed the advice Edrovided within those two hours yesterday and prepared the premiere in a new way.

  First of all, "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World" would premiere in Nosrick, at the only theater there — the Nosrick Grand Theater.

  The so-called theater ce for perf pys or stage pys, which were one of the precious eai activities in this world. Although the format was simple, due to the fact that most theater troupes traveled throughout the empire, this rare form of eai naturally captured the hearts of the audience. Wealthy spectators almost never missed any performances.

  Of course, this form of performance has many drawbacks. The first is the iti theater system mentioned earlier. Sihe troupe travels between locations, the performance cycle is very long. To catch a show, the audieen needs a great deal of luck with timing and location.

  Additionally, because of the high cost of facilities and manpower, a stage py typically costs at least five silver s. This is equivalent to five or six days' worth of food for an average person, making it nearly impossible for lower-css civilians to enjoy sutertai.

  Another issue is the high barrier to uanding stage pys. Most uneducated people simply ot prehend the artistiging and dang in these pys. Besides g along, they often ot grasp what the py is about.

  Therefore, when Edward decided to produce "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!", he had already resolved to release it in a pletely new format—film!

  Uage pys, films do not require extensive manpower and resources. All that is needed is a small imaging crystal and a magi to i with magic.

  As a result, films not only elimihe need for a long produ cycle but also drastically reduce costs. Acc to Edward's calcutions, the cost of the hundreds of imaging crystals he had in reserve was less than ten gold s, and the filming cost was almost negligible. This is a stark trast to stage pys, which cost at least three figures.

  For this reason, when the Southern Adventurers' Guild heeded Edward's advice, they boldly set the ticket price at five copper s per show, a tenfold drop from the price of stage pys!

  What does this mean? It means that for the cost of skipping a single mug of ale, one could enjoy a 90-minute visual experien the ema. This makes it accessible not only to ordinary citizens but also to the retively poor. In fact, by sacrifig a bit of viewing fort, the imaging crystal could even be sent to remote vilges for open-air sings at night!

  In this way, "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!" or, more broadly, films could potentially achieve widespread popurity. It could bee a sensation not just in the Southerory but throughout the entire empire!

  Naturally, the decision to release "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!" as a film came after long discussioween Edward and the Guild Leader of the Southern Adventurers' Guild. This was a high-stakes gamble and a potentially era-defining opportunity!

  Calling it a gamble is because this disruptive behavior will iably affeumerous i groups in the Southerory and the entire empire. No one i industry will be ued, and the backsh might be more than Edward or the Southern Adventurers' Guild handle.

  However, the potential rewards are almost unimaginable. If this new form of eaiakes off, it will bring enormous bes to the Southern Adventurers' Guild and Edward, making them pioneers of a new era!

  If films bee widespread, the eertai industry of the empire will be revolutionized. Eai will no longer be the exclusive domain of the wealthy; even the poor will be able to enjoy it and experience joy!

  This was Edward's initial motivation for filming. Although it included his personal ambitions, he also aimed to satisfy the desires of tless others by making this ge!

  Rather than pursuing the ultimate truth of magic, Edward, who es from a higher level of civilization, hoped to ge this b world!

  As clichéd as it sounds, he wao say that he, Edward, wao be someone who ges the world!

  ......

  That afternoon, upon hearing that the Adventurers' Guild had iated the premiere details with the head of the Nosrick Grand Theater, Edward went to the theater with Winry.

  As the guild president had mentiohis theater lived up to its reputation for its long history in Nosrick. The visibly magnifit decor and desigs surprised Edward. Soo the theater manager, a young man with a distinguished demeanor.

  This man was reportedly a baron with some past es to the Durin Family. The Nosrick Grand Theater was his family property. After hearing about the new iion of films, he immediately watched one and was so impressed that he promptly agreed to s it at his theater.

  "Hello, hello, Lord Durin. My name is Bahe baron who ied the Nosrick Grand Theater."

  Baron Baniel seemed to be quite a chatterbox. From the mome Edward, he bombarded him with questions, asking about the future developments in "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!", if he could join the filming, and eveioning that he had severed ties with several theater troupes after watg the film.

  Though Edward leased that the theater manager en to new ideas and willing to break the mold, he found Baniel's persistence a bit tiresome. He eventually said, "I'm here to discuss the premiere. we save the other questions for ter, Baron Baniel?"

  Realizing that Edward was being impatient, Baniel quickly put on a knowing smile and replied, "Of course, of course. Let me first show the great master magi around our theater."
