Chapter 51

Seo-jun appeared after changing his clothes and putting on some makeup. Evan Block, who had finished his preparations and was sitting on a chair reading a book, greeted him.

Jun, you look a bit taller than before, dont you?

At Evan Blocks question, Seo-jun sat down on a chair and took off his shoes to show him. They were sneakers with a slightly higher heel than normal ones.

My arms and legs are long and slender, and my proportions are good, but they told me to grow a little taller. Its 4 cm. Theyre fluffy and comfortable to wear.

You look older with your height and your bangs swept back.

He looked different from when he was William, who was cute and lovely in a light blue outfit and cheek touch. He wore black clothes and had a slightly pale makeup.

Wheres your father?

Hes working.

Lee Min Jun, who was sitting next to Evan Blocks manager, was on the phone. He didnt forget to wave his hand when he met Seo-juns eyes from time to time.

Seo-jun smiled as if he could hear the voice of his uncle Hee Sang, who was shouting not to forget the time difference between Korea and the United States.

Evan! Jun!

Jonathan, who was still helping Ryan Will with the filming, and who had become a high school student, found the two of them.

Jonathan hyung, do you not study at all? Seo-jun wondered as he saw Jonathan running towards them.

They said were going to rehearse soon.

Really?

Lets go.

Evan Block and Seo-jun got up from their seats. At the same time, cheers came from the mouths of the people who were watching. They could see the two actors standing up, unlike when they were sitting down.

Especially, the attention was focused on Seo-jun.

-Shadowman and William in Central Park. Looking forward to Shadowman 2!

-William has grown up! How many years have passed?

-William is so big! What do you eat to grow like that?

The news from the United States reached Korea. It was enough to make headlines.

[Shadowman 2 starts filming in Central Park!]

[How tall is Lee Seo-jun, who has grown up?]

[Is your child average? Or below? How to grow taller!]

-Wow. Theyre filming now!

-He looks like a hero in the angel photo.

-Hes grown a lot. Well, I guess he eats well and grows well from watching his baby mukbang.

The main filming began. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝓬𝓸𝓶

Seo-jun left the library. There were many lives in the library of evil tendencies.

There were abilities that brought misfortune if they liked it, and abilities that made them feel like someone was watching them all day long, which was good for getting mental illness.

They were all dreadful abilities. Among them, Seo-jun searched for an ability that was moderately bad but without a curse.

Im glad I found something decent.

But he didnt use [(Evil) The Lonely Flowers Sad Scent] for this filming.

[(Good) The Cat Barons Elegant Steps-Low]

Elegant steps, dignified posture are ingrained in your body. f(r)eenovelkiss.com

You have a correct posture without thinking.

Similar animals are attracted to you.

The cat baron was the first to receive the title of baron as a cat.

She was a noble ladys pet who had been taught etiquette as a joke, but she turned out to be more graceful than anyone else, earning even the queens applause.

The cat was then granted the title of baron by the queens discretion.

Lets start filming!

Seo-jun took a deep breath and exhaled.

He remembered Williams life that he had seen in the script. A kind and innocent child.

Now was the time to emit the sweet scent that director Ryan Will had talked about.

[The Basic Breathing of Elves is activated.]

The divine energy in Seo-juns origin moved vigorously as if it had met a new world. Magi was holding his breath, mesmerized by the movement.

-Ready,

Director Ryan Wills voice came through. Seo-jun stomped his feet twice, hearing the voice that sounded distant and close at the same time.

[(Divine) The Graceful Steps of the Cat Baron is activated.]

And in sync with the directors signal,

-Action!

He immersed himself.

The child was lost. He had nowhere to go in a place he had never been before. He looked around the Onassis Reservoir and the surroundings with a bewildered face.

There was a gaze watching him. It was Mac, who was working as a guide part-time at Central Park.

Mac, wearing a guide vest, looked around and headed toward the child.

Hey, kid.

The child looked up at the voice that came close.

Mac remembered the team leaders words to take the missing child to the shelter. He bent down to meet the childs eyes and smiled brightly, saying, Dont cry, okay?

Where are your parents?

Theyre at home.

Do you have a home in Manhattan?

No.

Mac scratched his cheek at the childs short answer. The child, who saw Mac not leaving, opened his mouth. A small smile appeared on his pale face.

My family is coming. You can go.

When are they coming?

The child recalled his memory. Ill pick you up when the sun sets. He remembered the voice of the woman he relied on the most, who had said it lightly.

Mac could tell what noble meant from the childs behavior as he was thinking. There was dignity in every action of the child.

When the sun sets

Oh.

Mac turned on his phone and entered the weather site. It was September, and the sun didnt set until 7 p.m. It was 1 p.m. now, and the sun was above his head.

You have to wait six more hours?

Trouble appeared on the childs face. Six hours. It was too long. Mac smiled and turned on the radio and contacted the team leader. He spoke quietly so the child wouldnt hear.

Theres a missing child here.

-A missing child? Bring him to the center.

Can I play with him instead of the center? I wont leave Central Park.

-You? Why?

My family is coming to pick me up at seven, but its suffocating to stay at the center for six hours. Im done with my part-time job too.

-Seven? Okay. Got it. Return the vest and the radio to Mia and hand them in.

Thank you!

Mac ran up to the boy with a bright smile.

Do you want to play with me until seven?

The boy, who had been lost in thought for a moment, nodded slightly.

-Cut! OK!

Ryan Wills voice rang out. As the camera stopped, Seo-jun quickly tapped the floor twice with his foot to stop wasting the battery. The running drone also quieted down.

The sweet atmosphere turned ordinary in an instant.

Evan Block, who had been watching the difference right in front of him, widened his eyes. He believed that small actions and habits made a persons vibe. Thats why he always analyzed people and added details to his acting.

But Seo-jun Lee was different. He just stood there the same way, but the vibe changed in an instant, as if he had turned a switch on and off.

Is this talent? Evan Block had one more thing to write on his note analyzing Seo-jun. He chuckled.

One of the tourists who had been watching the two actors filming whispered to his friend without disturbing the shooting.

That kid, he looks familiar, doesnt he?

Yeah

Emma, who was trying to recall her memory, had a flash of the boys face smiling brightly in her mind.

The picture you sent me!

What?

Emmas friend racked his brain. He didnt know who the boy in the picture was, since it was floating around on the internet. The friend who had been looking at Seo-jun also realized it soon. He had the same warm and gentle feeling as the picture.

Do you think its him?

Wow.

Emma clasped her hands tightly. She wanted to thank him if she ever met him.

Now it was time to film the scenes where the boy and Mac became friends while touring and exploring Central Park.

Do you want to try this?

Sure.

At the baseball field in Central Park, Mac threw the ball and the boy hit a light single with a baseball bat.

Mac, no, Evan Block was sincerely impressed. The baseball-crazy staffs clapped their hands sincerely after the shooting and said, It was a perfect hit, if only he had a little more power, it would have been a home run.

What is this?

Its a snow leopard.

The boy often learned about the world and common sense with a face that he had never seen before.

He seemed to be eating a hot dog for the first time and shivered at the carbonated drink.

Mac just thought, are all kids like this these days? I dont think I was like that. But he explained diligently.

The snow leopard, who was sitting on a rock and yawning lazily, made eye contact with Seo-jun at the end of the shooting at the zoo.

Sniff sniff-.

The snow leopard tilted its head and walked slowly toward Seo-jun. There was a large glass wall blocking it, but it didnt take its eyes off Seo-jun.

The snow leopard really likes you, Jun.

At Evan Blocks words, Seo-jun moved to the right. The snow leopard also moved to the right. When he moved to the left, the snow leopard followed him. Everyone was amazed at the sight.

Hmm. Is it because of the Cat Baron?

Seo-jun nodded and deactivated [The Noble Cats Graceful Steps]. The snow leopard sniffed around a few times, then tilted its head curiously before returning to its spot and yawning.

Throughout the shoot in Central Park, the two actors truly enjoyed sightseeing, conversing, and touring.

The joy seemed to spread to others, giving the impression that they were filming a promotional video for Central Park rather than a movie. Even the Central Park staff guiding the film crew asked if they could use the footage for promotional purposes after the release.

As the shooting progressed, posts began to surface online speculating whether Seo-jun Lees role might be a hero. Photos of the two actors surrounded by staff also appeared.

During breaks, Jonathan summarized the circulating posts for director Ryan Will.

Many posts say Seo-jun looks like a hero. There are also questions about why William, who disappeared through a strange wormhole, is in Central Park. Theyre saying hes grown a lot, isnt he too different from Shadowman 1?

Indeed.

Director Ryan Will nodded.

The Central Park shoot was also part of the promotion for Shadowman 2. Key scenes of Shadowman 2 were planned to be shot on set for security reasons. The shoot in Central Park ended in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

Seo-jun, this.

Jonathan showed a letter to Seo-jun, who was removing his makeup.

A fan left this for you, but it seems safe. Weve checked it. We dont know whats inside, so shall we open it for you?

Seo-jun agreed, and Jonathan and the staff quickly headed to another tent.

Minjun Lee smiled. He was happy to see everyone treating Seo-jun with care.

The inspection was quick. Jonathan handed Seo-jun the neatly opened envelope, his eyes slightly red.

Heres the letter. Seems like a real fan.

Seo-jun unfolded the letter. It was hastily written but neat.

The letters author, Emma, mentioned she was able to overcome depression after seeing Seo-juns photos.

Although not cured instantly, the clarity and hope she once felt became her beacon, allowing her to receive treatment and eventually travel abroad. The letter ended with a request for Seo-jun to continue making movies.

Thats great!

Seo-jun carefully placed the fan letter in his bag. If his photo had helped many, it was worth the effort.

Seo-jun and Minjun Lee stepped outside to return to their accommodation.

But they really recognize me. Dad, wasnt my image very different?

Minjun pondered. The contrast between Seo-jun in pure white angelic clothes, beaming with joy, and Seo-jun in black, looking a bit pale. Even during the shoot, as they moved around Central Park, they occasionally heard conversations.

Some recognized you quickly. They were asking each other if you were the child from the photos.

Ah, I see.

Despite his growth and different hairstyle, it seemed the photo from Christmas Eve had left a lasting impression.

Still.

Seo-jun chuckled. A robust magical energy stirred within him, bringing a smile to his face. His efforts had paid off.

Theyll forget all about it once they see the end of the movie!

He was determined to work hard to ensure that outcome.
