Chapter 722 Frustrated Lucifer
Chapter 722 Frustrated Lucifer
Lith, Ralph, and Dennis decided to come on live tv to
introduce their studio because nobody else knew about it better than them.
The three were in disguise with Lith taking his Frey Woods appearance.
Frey Woods was inspired from Freya Woods, his sister's personal maid who was the first maid Lith had ever seen when he ventured out in this world.
Ralph and Dennis had changed their face shape slightly along with slight height differences.
They retained their original appearance because many people had pink and red eyes.
It was only Lith whose hair and eyes stood out quite considerably and had to do a big makeover.
Coming in front of the world's infotainment press, Dennis took a step forward and said, "you all might be wondering… just where were we?"
"It has been eight decades yet there have only been rumors, are we right?"
The people listening to Dennis nodded calmly.
Dennis may seem like a fun and crazy lad at all times, but that was only when he was with Lith and Ralph.
In general, he was a Duke's son and he was well aware of his status.
Dennis neither had fear of crowds nor of public speaking. He was a noble in the truest essence and shone the most during times such as these.
"They say, the longer the wait, the sweeter the fruit."
Ralph came forward this time and spoke.
"For the past eight decades, we've been preparing…"
"…preparing to start with a bang." Lith continued Ralph's words by coming forward and making a finger gun at the end.
The three hyped the crowd up and not just the press, but the entire world watching this live were anticipating things with great enthusiasm.
The three took their sweet time in coming to the main topic and finally after twenty minutes of random bullshitting, Dennis said:
"BEHOLD!"
Ralph pulled the curtain behind him and there appeared three anime covers, showcasing three series.
"WOOOOAAAAAH!"
One was fantasy, one was comedy, and one was romance.
People were stunned to have the first look at these posters and with how amazing they looked, everybody guessed that the quality would be top tier.
Everybody had high hopes for this studio since these guys had bought all the skilled animators, but the end result still amazed them.
Dennis, being the anime expert among the three, went on and on about the upcoming three shows their studio was releasing.
Not only did the studio have three shows, they also had at least two seasons for each show, is what Dennis told these guys to excite them further.
Finally, Dennis came to the main topic — the release date.
"… the dates for the three shows are…"
Everybody stood at the edge of their seats.
Dennis looked at them and smiled. He took a pause and didn't say it yet, making them really frustrated.
Meanwhile…
'DAMN IT!' Lucifer cursed in her mind while aggressively munching on popcorn.
Lith was bullshitting so much and not coming to the topic for about an hour. She was getting frustrated and really wanted to beat him up for this.
If there weren't her daughters around her, she really would've punched a wall or something.
'Just say the damn dates already!' Lucifer thought.
Finally after a few minutes of great suspense, Dennis on the tv said:
"…the first episode airs…. NOW!"
"Huh?" People were taken aback and so was Lucifer.
Dennis, Ralph, and Lith disappeared from the stage and the big screen started playing the first episode of the fantasy anime.
It finally dawned on the people that they were all invited to the fucking premier itself!
Who does such a thing!?
Everyone couldn't help but wonder.
But their thoughts were immediately washed away as the episode started.
With seriousness on her face, Lucifer caressed the head of Ruth in her embrace with one hand and picked popcorn from the other.
The bucket had an endless supply of popcorn and wouldn't be over no matter how much was taken from it.
The episode playing in front of millions of people displayed the great potential of Studio Purple.
With just one episode, these guys showed their greatness and everyone didn't even need to think that this studio belonged among the most elite of elites.
It was a new studio and with just a little bit of time, if they retained this quality, they were sure to become the number one!
The anime airing was a studio original. It wasn't an adaptation and people had to wait for more episodes to release to know more about the story.
This really sucked and people were chewing on their nails in frustration.
Ralph arrived at the scene and gave the people some info to calm them down.
The episodes that would be released would be done at a normal rate like everyone else.
The anime would also be released on almost all streaming platforms and anyone with any connection or subscription could watch it.
The shows would be released one by one and if there's demand and great popularity, the studio shall release the second show, and depending on the fans again, it would do the same with the third show.
The shows had a fixed released date, but on demand, they could be preponed.
Lucifer was happy hearing this and she anticipated the dates.
Lith then dropped a bomb on everyone:
"...unlike most shows, our episodes would release on an interval of two week."
"WHAAAAAAAT!?"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Lith smirked behind his mask. He wanted to see this reaction.
Even Dennis was surprised and looked at Lith with a look that stated, 'when did we decide on this?'
Lith didn't elaborate further and said, "Please let us clairfy. We are still a growing studio and don't get enough screen time every week from the broadcast companies."
Lith was using the dao of bullshit. He wanted to increase the sales as much as he could and the only reason for a release in every two weeks was to milk as much money as possible out of this.
If the gap is every two weeks, the viewer retention would be high and they'd make more money.
If the gap wasn't high, the retention would be low as people would stack episodes to watch them in one go. There could also be illegal streaming and to avoid all of this, Lith came to this conclusion.
Back in the Demon Castle, Lucifer was really annoyed by now.
She has had enough of Lith's shenanigans.
Gently putting Ruth to the side, she got up and said to her three daughters, "I'll be back in a minute."
"Where are you going, mom?" Rosy asked.
A serious glint flashed in Lucifer's eyes. "To get a few answers."
"Okay." Rosy didn't ask further.
The three Cerberus went back to doing what they were doing and Lucifer immediately left her castle.
The live had ended after a few more minutes.
Lith, Ralph, and Dennis walked towards their meeting room in the studio and while they were on their way, space fluctuated around them and in an instant, Lith vanished from his spot.
THUD!
"YOU!" Lucifer asked as she pushed Lith on the wall while holding his collar. "What the fuck is wrong with you!?"
"Did something happen, aunt? Are you in heat?" Lith asked, completely unfazed.
He knew he would be having company soon as what he did was basically blue balling the hardcore otakus.
His Demon aunt was one and it was no surprise that she would come after him.
Lucifer knitted her brows as she heard that. She glared at him and said, "is everything a joke to you?"
Lith showed a confused look. "What do you mean, aunt? Is me being worried about you a joke?"
"What?" Lucifer was confused.
Lith patted her head and pulling her cheek, asked with a smile, "did you come all the way here because you missed me?"
Lucifer slapped the hand away. "Mister, you know damn well why I am here."
Lith sighed. "Fine, I'll do as you wish."
Lucifer nodded. "Now we're talking."
She let go of Lith and as soon as he was down, Lith started unbuckling his pants.
"What the— stop!" Lucifer immediately made him stop.
"What? You don't wanna have sex?"
Lucifer knitted her brows and said with pure confusion, "why would I wanna have sex? Do I look horny 24*7 to you?"
"Yes."
"You—" Lucifer didn't know what to say anymore.
She held Lith's collar again and put him up against the wall.
"I don't wanna get pounded, I want answers. Give me the damn answers." Lucifer said, really annoyed by Lith.
"Answers to?" Lith still feigned ignorance.
"Answers to the questions of why you're delaying the episodes and stuff." Lucifer went straight to the point.
"Ah... that... " Lith chuckled.?"You should've said so before, aunt."
Lucifer was dumbfounded. Was her nephew stupid or was she the one stupid to not have conveyed the reason why she was frustrated with him?
"Well... I'll tell you everything, put me down first, can you? It doesn't seem appropriate to talk this way." Lith said.
Lucifer had some doubts about putting him down as she didn't trust him. Her intuition told her that he would do something stupid again, but then, she knew he was stubborn and wouldn't answer unless she did as he asked
Lucifer put down Lith and demanded answers again.
"Well... for starters..." Lith put on a pondering expression and one of his evil hands went towards Lucifer's behind and grabbed her big plump buttocks.
Lucifer knitted her brows. She knew it. This was bound to happen!
'Hmph! If he doesn't answer properly this time, I'm seriously gonna torture him...'
