Chapter 206 Voice Calls

"Are you coming tonight?" Theo asked after a while to change the subject of the conversation.

He did not want to overly dwell on the grief.

He wanted to focus on this life and be happy with what he got.

"Hell yeah! A free chance to eat your food. How could I pass this opportunity?" Sayuri replied with a giggle.

Sayuri saw the message that Theo sent on the chat group where everyone was in.

Theo invited them all to come to his house to eat and enjoy the night.

"I will be waiting for you tonight then." Theo laughed.

He was about to bid goodbye to her when he heard Sayuri exclaiming.

"Oh, I almost forgot! I need you to send the next volumes of the mangas so that we can be able to edit them." Sayuri asked suddenly.

A few months ago, Theo sent her 3 volumes from each manga that the Fuji Co. was working with.

But now that they were releasing the third volume of the [Naruto] and [Hataraku Maou-sama] mangas, Sayuri needed the next volumes for the editing team to prepare for the release of the next volumes.

"Oh, that's right! I had already forgotten about it!" Theo exclaimed when he remembered that it had been a while since he drew the volumes of the mangas.

"I will send them until the end of the week." Theo stated as he discovered another thing he had to do this week.

'Thank god I have Ayia's help or I wouldn't able to handle this workload even with my enhanced physique.' He heaved a sigh of relief.

"I will be waiting then." Sayuri said in a light tone.

The two of them talked about other miscellaneous stuff for a while before they hung up the phone.

"Great. Another thing to do." Theo complained as he thought about the mangas editions he had to make.

"Hmm, but before I continue drawing, I should call Ryoko." He pondered as he dialed Ryoko's number.

A while later, Theo heard her voice through the phone.

"Hello?" She answered.

"Hey, it's me." Theo replied with a gentle voice.

"Hey, boss!" Ryoko recognized his voice immediately.

Even though she knew it was him when she saw see the caller's name, Theo's voice was too magnetic for her to forget.

"Do you need something?" She asked curiously why he called her.

"Yeah, I wanted to know how the allocation of teams is going." He asked.

"I'm almost finished with it. I utilized the characteristics we saw in the interviews to form the teams." Ryoko replied with a professional voice.

For the last 3 days, she has been working on that.

So, it was safe to say that Ryoko was confident in the allocation of the teams.

"That's great! This way we work faster." Theo stated with shining eyes.

"Oh, at the end of the afternoon, I will send you the script and storyboard of the 12 episodes of the anime. I will also send the characters and layout designs. With these drawings, you can speed up the production." Theo suddenly said when he remembered that he didn't tell her these things would be completed without the studios' help.

Ryoko froze when she heard that.

If Theo was in front of her at that moment, he would see her face frozen in shock and bewilderment.

'How is that possible? Did he hire another studio to make these things? But why would do that if he already has more than 800 animators to do these things for him? Is it possible that he already had these drawings for a long time? Or is it because...' Thousands of reasons passed through Ryoko's mind.

But she would never even imagine that he did everything by himself.

But that's normal because who would think that only one person would do the job that tens of people took months to accomplish?

And he did all these things in only three days!

That was a freakish accomplishment.

Theo only managed to achieve this with the help of his enhanced intellect, eidetic memory, and enhanced motor coordination.

If even one of these things were taken from him, he would not be able to do this feat.

His advanced intellect helped him think of the best and more efficient way to draw.

The eidetic memory made sure that he did not forget what he had to draw.

And the enhanced motor coordination made his way firm as a rock as he drew, and also helped him draw with precision.

"Hello? Are you there?" Theo asked when he didn't hear her reply.

Ryoko woke up from her reverie when she heard his voice.

"I'm here I was distracted for a while." She replied as she didn't want to probe too much about how he managed to get these drawings.

"So, do you think that you can speed the production with these things done?" Theo asked again with a patient voice.

"I can do it! Boss, with these things done, I'm confident in finishing the anime before we broadcast the first episode on the Chrome Channel in April." Ryoko replied with a confident voice.

Ryoko's eyes shone with determination.

She wanted to prove to Theo that he made the right choice in hiring her.

"That's a relief! I believe in you." Theo said with a gentle voice.

Ryoko became even more determined when she heard that.

It was exactly these words he said when she told him her story.

He and Sayuri were the first people aside from her friends who believed in her.

That's why Ryoko admired these two people from the bottom of her heart.?

"Are you coming tonight?" Theo asked after a while.

"Eh, hmm" Ryoko hesitated in her answer.

? She saw Theo's invite to the chat group, but after she heard that he would send her these drawings, Ryoko wanted to spend the night going over them.

The blue-haired girl was too excited about working on them.

"I see you want to spend the night going over the drawings and scripts I will send you." Theo commented as he laughed.

Ryoko blushed as she noticed that Theo read her thoughts perfectly.

"Yeah, I want to go over these drawings and assign the teams with the work they will do based on these drawings." She exposed her thoughts in a low voice.

"Well, you don't have to worry about coming. I understand that you are eager and curious about the drawings. But, don't forget you are always welcome to hang out with us."

Ryoko felt her heart warm when she heard that.

It felt so good to feel welcomed by people she admired.

"Okay, thank you, Theo." Ryoko replied with a grateful voice.

"How're the preparations for the opening of the studio tomorrow?" Theo asked when he remembered what would happen the day after.

"Everything's ready. Most of the animators already arrived in Elffire City. And 90% of them chose to rent and live in our dorms." Ryoko replied when she remembered the report that Amber gave her.

"Oh, really? That's more than I expected." Theo said in surprise.

"Yeah, the interns responsible to oversee the dorms had their hands full with so many people entering the dorms." Ryoko commented.

Most people didn't have any idea where to stay in the city, so the dorms of the studio became a popular and cheap choice.

"I bet it is very lively there." Theo chuckled.

He didn't have to worry about these things, so he was amused with these dorms.

It sounded like a college dorm, but it was a working dorm.

Which was even more fun.

Obviously, the dorms had strict rules, but everyone was too excited to care about that.

"Oh, Sam will send the salaries tomorrow. So, you should be expecting your payment too." Theo laughed.

Ryoko's eyes lit up when she heard that.

The two of them talked about other miscellaneous things before they hung the phone.

Theo had a thoughtful face as hung the call.

With the reports inspected and the calls he needed to make already done, Theo could now continue with his work.

He needed to finish the drawings for the anime before nightfall.

After all, tonight would be a great night.

He couldn't wait.

But what would happen that night?
