Chapter 34 Angel Investors
Chapter 34 Angel Investors
In the afternoon, perhaps because of the rain last night, the temperature dropped.
"Let's go, where are we going to play now?" Bai Yuze asked after packing everything up.
"Let's go to Luoshui Road in Tianxin District!"
"Are there any events happening over there?"
After returning to Yeqiu City, Bai Yuze basically lived a monotonous life, going back and forth between two points, and never heard of any fun places there.
Iris rolled her eyes at him. After living in Yeqiu City for so long, how come his information intake is not as good as hers, an Abyss Demoness? He didn't even know that a large-scale comic convention was being held in Tianxin District in Yeqiu City recently.
"I noticed you really enjoy watching anime, so I was thinking of taking you to a comic convention."
"oh."
"Do you want to take the bus or the subway?"
"I'm fine with anything, but why didn't you drive here?"
"Then let's take the subway. I've heard that human subways are very fast, and I've never experienced one before! As for why we didn't drive here, you like to keep a low profile, so I'll go along with your suggestion."
The Demon Princess Iris turned her eerie green eyes and teased softly.
"What, are you starting to miss the comfort of crying in a luxury car?"
Bai Yuze pursed his lips; the iris was still nowhere to be seen.
……
The convention was bustling with activity, and from a distance, it looked like a sea of people. Every now and then, you could see a few cosplayers of all kinds along the way.
It has all kinds of anime characters.
Including the magical girl protagonist, Qingli, who has recently become very popular in magical girl anime.
The iris is even more direct.
It will return to its original form.
That is, Iris the Demon Princess, one of the four main villains in the anime magical girl series.
A pair of alluring almond-shaped eyes, her brows still retaining their charm, a full black gel-like bodysuit outlining her perfect curves, and deep abyss patterns etched on her voluptuous, snow-white skin.
Its entire body was covered in dark scales, with only a small portion of its fair skin showing.
Yet, she exuded a unique allure, every smile and gesture emanating from within.
It attracts the attention of others at all times.
Compared to the eye-catching iris,
Bai Yuze, in his transformed form as the Demoness Illusionary Butterfly, wished he could hide himself completely in a dark corner.
It becomes transparent air.
The moment the two stepped into the comic convention venue, countless eyes were drawn to them.
The gazes fixed upon him were too intense.
So much so that she felt,
It feels like stepping into the Gao Lao Zhuang restaurant from Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons.
This was a strange feeling she had never experienced in either of her two lifetimes.
Fortunately, after Iris explicitly refused the request to take photos, such gazes decreased significantly.
There are still many intense gazes, but it's much more relaxed compared to before.
The girl-like Phantom Butterfly followed behind the tall Iris, curiously observing the large anime convention.
I met many cosplayers, singing YouTubers, and otaku dance YouTubers who were previously famous on Pixiv.
You can even spot popular lifestyle content creators.
Anime was playing on the central electronic screen at the comic convention.
Several sweet-looking magical girls, dressed in colorful magical gowns, waved their plastic wands. With the help of animation effects, various powerful monsters were destroyed by magical light, turning into a cloud of black mist that entered their magical cores...
Around the electronic screen, you can see many men, women, and children.
Waving glow sticks and cheering for them, waving flags and shouting slogans:
"Lime, we'll always love you!"
"Lime, you will always be my goddess!"
Many of them were also dressed in magical girl cosplay outfits.
Some were dressed up so realistically,
Some also exhibit a unique aesthetic style that stands out from the rest.
In general, the styles are incredibly diverse, and the otaku culture is flourishing in all its forms.
To be honest, I had a really great time browsing around Huan Die.
For her, anime conventions were something she used to only watch on Pixiv (a Chinese video-sharing website) where content creators (UPs) participated.
Or you can watch various cosplayers on different photography YouTubers.
This is my first time attending a comic convention.
"How is it? Do you like it?"
Iris held Butterfly's hand and smiled as she watched the latter's dazzled expression.
"This was all organized by your sister, and it cost me over a hundred! There were venue rental fees, cosplayer invitation fees, advertising fees, stage fees, security fees, catering fees... so many things! It was like money was flowing out of our pockets! Aren't you touched?"
Huan Die looked up and noticed that there was a long banner hanging at the comic convention.
"Welcome, Miss Bai, to the Yeqiu City Comic Con!"
"I was moved. I would have been even more moved if I hadn't come here looking like this."
Before setting off, Iris gave Bai Yuze two options.
One is that it transforms into the magical girl Violet.
One form is that it transforms into the appearance of the Abyss Demoness, Phantom Butterfly.
After much deliberation, Bai Yuze finally chose Demoness: Illusionary Butterfly.
Violet Magical Girl was very popular before, but most people have probably forgotten about it now.
But Iris brought her here today for more than just a casual stroll through the comic convention.
Given Iris Funko's personality,
It could very well make her famous, but to avoid any unforeseen circumstances, she chose the latter.
In real life, the war between humanity and the abyss has reached a point of no return, but it is undeniable that the Abyss Demoness is very beautiful, each with her own unique charm.
In the world of anime and manga enthusiasts, it doesn't matter if you're evil or good; as long as you're pretty, you'll definitely have a place.
Currently, the Four Demoness have a certain number of fans, but the nature of these fans is unknown.
There were quite a few cosplayers dressed as demon princesses at anime conventions.
Who would have thought,
Will the ruthless demon princess attend a human-organized anime convention?
However, the Demoness Illusion Butterfly's attire was indeed a bit too strange for Bai Yuze.
I inexplicably felt like someone was taking advantage of me.
All she can do now is pray that no one recognizes her...
"You agreed to this last night, I didn't force you. Okay, let me take you to the stage."
Holding hands, the two arrived one after the other at a magical girl cosplay talent competition.
Next to it was a huge, colorful magical girl poster.
The notice, written in bright font, read: First place: 1; Second place: 5; Third place: 1.
The prize money was extremely attractive, drawing the attention of many cosplay enthusiasts of magical girls.
A row of guest judges sat below the stage, most of whom were popular otaku dance creators on Pixiv.
The row behind was filled with onlookers who had come to see what was going on. Several high-end cameras were set up in the middle of the area, seemingly broadcasting live.
As she approached, a middle-aged man in a suit with a slicked-back face and slicked-back hair greeted her with a broad smile, "Miss Bai, you've finally arrived."
After a brief pause, she looked curiously at Huan Die beside her and asked, "And who is this beautiful lady?"
Iris briefly touched the middle-aged man's hand and then pulled away. "Boss Xia, I heard you were going to hold a comic convention in Yeqiu City, so I specially brought my sister here to have some fun and broaden her horizons."
Boss Xia's gaze lingered on Huan Die for a moment before shifting away.
It was understated yet tinged with appreciation and curiosity, but lacked the desire that others might have.
"Miss Bai, that's ridiculous. The success of this comic convention wouldn't have been possible without your financial support."
"Haha, I wouldn't say it's strong support, it's more like a win-win situation," Iris said with a faint smile.
"I wonder how to address your younger sister?"
"My sister is shy, you can just call her Xiaodie."
"Miss Xiaodie is a beauty of unparalleled grace. The competition has just begun, would you be willing to perform on stage?"
Mr. Xia enthusiastically recommended the product, but he was worried about how to win over Miss Bai and further develop the business.
Over the years, Miss Bai has been flocking to Yeqiu City alone, bringing a large sum of money with her. She invests a little here and a little there, and after investing, she doesn't care about the company's situation at all. Whether it makes a profit or a loss doesn't matter, as long as the profits are transferred to her account each time.
He is referred to as an "angel investor" by a group of entrepreneurs in Yeqiu City.
