I am the Entertainment Tycoon

Saturday, November 28th

Theo woke up early as usual to do his morning routine.

He wanted to let Aurora sleep late today.

After all, she didn't have school classes that day.

But when he got out of his bedroom, Aurora was already waiting for him outside.

"Good morning, cupcake!" He greeted her with a doting smile.

"Good morning, big brother!" Aurora replied with a sweet smile.

"I was planning to let you sleep late today." Theo chuckled as they walked downstairs.

"I can nap in the afternoon, but this workout I can't do without you in the afternoon." Aurora said with a smug smile.

Theo laughed when he heard.

"That makes sense." He said as they arrived at the ground floor of the house.

"It seems that the winter is near." Theo commented as they arrived at the backyard.

The sky was cloudy and without any signs of the sun rising.

Usually, at this time of the day, sun lights could already be seen in the sky to announce the start of a new day.

But today the weather was cold and windy.

The cold wind swayed the trees around the lake, and Theo and Aurora felt the cold weather giving them shivers.

"Let's start running to heat our bodies." Theo managed to say through trembling lips.

"Yes!" Aurora replied vehemently.

The siblings ran through the cold weather, and after running for a while, their bodies got heated enough to be able to ignore the cold winds.

One hour later the siblings stopped running and immediately entered the house to escape the cold weather

Today they were not able to see the sun rising because the skies were filled with dark clouds shrouding the rising sun.

Theo and Aurora started their martial art practice after they went to the gym.

Theo noticed that Aurora was getting better and better.

Now he did not have to worry if someone attacked her, she would be able to protect herself.

He would only be worried if they had a gun.

But he had Sylph covering that.

Sylph was also Aurora's bodyguard, the butler watched Aurora 24/7 to be sure of her safety.

After the two of them took a shower after their workout, they had a lovely breakfast.

It had already become a tradition for the two of them to have breakfast together.

"I'm gonna take nap, big brother." Aurora said sleepily after yawning.

"Sure, sleep tight, cupcake." Theo replied with a loving smile.

Aurora nodded and took the elevator to the third floor of the house.

She was too sleepy to climb up the stairs.

Theo also stood up and headed to the section of the house that was reserved for him to work.

But today he did not go to the recording studio to work on his music album.

Today he would go to the animation studio!

Tokyo Studios would open for business next Tuesday, and Theo had a ton of preparations to do before opening.

[SAO] Anime was due in 4 months.

And even with more than eight hundred people working on the project, it would take more than 4 months to complete the anime if Theo did not give them what he knew about the anime.

Theo had to draw all the characters' designs, episodes' storyboards, background designs, and many other things.

Although Theo would not draw everything, he had to give the basic drawings to the animators so that the process of animation could be accelerated.

Theo started by drawing the two main characters of the anime.

As the main protagonist of Sword Art Online, Kazuto "Kirito" Kirigaya, is one of 1,000 testers in the previous closed beta of Sword Art Online (SAO), the first-ever Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (VRMMORPG) for the NerveGear, a helmet that stimulates the user's five senses via their brain, allowing players to experience and control their in-game characters with their minds.

He later joins the official version of the game where he becomes one of the 10,000 players to log into SAO's mainframe cyberspace for the first time, only to discover that they are unable to log out.

Kayaba (The Game Creator) appears and tells the players that they must beat all 100 floors of Aincrad, a steel castle that is the setting of SAO if they wish to be free. Those who suffer in-game deaths or forcibly remove the NerveGear out-of-game will suffer real-life deaths.

With the advantage of previous VR gaming experience and a drive to protect other beta testers from discrimination, Kirito isolates himself from the greater groups and plays the game alone, bearing the mantle of "beater", a portmanteau of "beta tester" and "cheater".

Kirito had black hair and black eyes.

He was not particularly handsome.

Theo had to draw all Kirito character designs to facilitate and speed up the animation process.

But Theo also had to draw the second main character of SAO.

Asuna Yuuki (Yūki Asuna) is a character who appears in the Sword Art Online series.

She is more commonly known as just Asuna, her player name in the eponymous video game in which the novels are set in.

Asuna appears as the lover of Kirito; as well as the female lead, she is in the novel as a sub-leader of the Knights of the Blood Oath guild, notable for being the strongest guild in Aincrad.

She is depicted as having earned a reputation as a skilled player in-game, giving her the nickname Lightning Flash, which, coupled with her physical attractiveness, has made her well-known and sought after by other players.

Theo had to be careful when drawing Asuna because he knew how popular she was in his past life.

She frequently appeared in the anime ranking of best waifu.

And Theo wanted to make Asuna famous in this life too.

Asuna had light brown hair and bright eyes, and her costume was one of the best Theo ever saw.

Theo remembered that he loved seeing girls cosplaying Asuna, they seemed so pretty.

Theo also had to draw the designs of the world of Sword Art Online, also known as Aincrad.

Aincrad was an iron-and-stone made floating castle that had about ten kilometers floor base diameter and consisted of a hundred floors stacking straight upwards, meaning that each floor's diameter is a bit smaller than the previous one.

On each floor, there are a couple of large cities along with countless small-scale towns and villages, forests, plains, and even lakes.

Only one stairway linked each floor to another, and the stairways exist beyond the boss room of each Labyrinth.

Theo planned to draw these cities but let the rest to the animators from Tokyo.

After all, he was not capable to draw everything by himself, and that's why he created an animation studio.

Theo had to give his animators the basic schematics for them to follow.

He did not have to draw everything, but he needed to draw the framework of the world.

Theo also had to draw the storyboard of the 24 episodes of the SAO.

He didn't need to be too specific in it, he just wanted to give the Storyboard Department the direction that they should take.

Theo predicted that it would take at least 3 days for him to draw everything.

And he would not be able to work on his music album these days, but Theo was not worried.

With Ayia's help, he was certain that he could finish his album before the end of December.

Theo spent his day working on that.

But in another part of the city, some people were having a completely different day.

It was casting day!
