Ch-34 Nami and Tashigi's Audition.

After Nami's explanation, Li Fan nodded.

"I see, there was a slight miscalculation."

"With such a well-developed figure, it might be a bit difficult to hide it with just clothing."

Hearing this, Tashigi raised her head.

"Well, Li Fan, can't I play the lead role?"

"You don't have to worry about this," Li Fan shook his head, "When it's time to shoot later, we can use looser clothing."

"Then, with some post-production work, we can fix it."

"Very well, Tashigi, your image concern is resolved. Let me show you a scene first."

"Nami is here too, and if you have a rivalry scene, consider it as a test for both of you."

"As for the scene to be performed..." Li Fan picked up the script and turned to the part involving the confrontation between Kamado Nezuko, recently turned into a demon, and Kamado Tanjiro, "Just perform this part."

"Let me see!" Nami leaned over and carefully read the script.

This was important for her to secure a role. Nami was determined to not be labeled as a failure by Li Fan.

After a few minutes, Nami nodded confidently.

"Okay, I'm ready, Li Fan, I can start at any time."

"But before that, can you provide me with a Nezuko Kamado's costume?"

"Wearing the character's costume during the audition will make it closer to the script."

"What you're saying makes sense. Since you're requesting it, that's fine," Li Fan agreed.

After saying that, Li Fan used projection magic to create Nezuko Kamado's clothing.

Nami eagerly accepted the clothes and quickly retreated into the bathroom.

In just a few minutes, Nami emerged wearing a kimono.

"How do I look, Director Li Fan? Am I beautiful?"

"Beautiful, yes, but that's not Nezuko's style." Li Fan examined Nami's playful appearance and shook his head, "Nezuko should have a cute and innocent look."

"Additionally, the Nezuko you'll portray now should appear somewhat manic and irrational as she's recently turned into a demon."

"I hope both you and Tashigi can deliver strong performances. Do you understand, both of you?"

Hearing this, Nami and Tashigi nodded.

"Very well, then let's begin."

In response to Li Fan's cue, Nami and Tashigi quickly got into character and began their performances.

Nami, in particular, excelled in her acting, and Tashigi, with her prior experience in drama, delivered a commendable performance.

After they finished their performances as required, Li Fan nodded.

"First of all, Nami, you're a true talent. Your ability to get into character instantly astounds me."

"Your portrayal of Nezuko's initial madness, the sorrow that surfaces when awakened by her brother Tanjiro's words, and the tears that couldn't be held back were truly moving."

"To be honest, I was deeply touched."

Li Fan's words brought a smile to Nami's face as she wiped away her tears and gave a thumbs-up.

"Of course! By the way, Director, I'm this good, aren't you considering a little raise in my salary?"

"You're quite the money-lover," Li Fan sighed, "Let's focus on this performance first."

"After that, I'll continue to give you more significant roles, and your compensation will certainly reflect that."

"Then I'll thank you in advance, Director," Nami said with a smile.

Li Fan then turned his attention to Tashigi, who had remained quiet.

"Next, it's your turn, Tashigi."

"Although your acting skills have improved, they still need a bit more refinement. You didn't quite nail this scene."

"Of course, this scene doesn't fully showcase your strengths. After all, your true strength lies in your swordsmanship."

"Overall, it's still satisfactory."

"However, to better portray Tanjiro Kamado, I'll be providing you with training in [Water Breathing] swordsmanship while also refining your acting skills. Let's set some ground rules from the start, I'll be quite demanding. Are you prepared for that?"

"Well, Li Fan, I'm ready to give it my all," Tashigi quickly nodded.

"Great. Now, both of you, change back into your own clothes. It's almost time to prepare for our journey to Cocoyasi Village." Li Fan turned to Nami, "You're eager to return to your hometown too, Nami."

Nami looked serious and gave a determined nod.

However, in the next moment, Nami approached Li Fan with a smile.

"Hey, director, can I keep this costume? I really like it."

Li Fan shook his head and explained, "You should change back into your previous clothes. The outfit you're wearing now was created by me using my abilities. If I stop maintaining it, the clothes will disappear."

"I'm sure you wouldn't want to suddenly find yourself naked while walking down the street."

Upon hearing Li Fan's words, both Nami and Tashigi quickly returned to the bathroom and changed into their original attire.
