I am the Entertainment Tycoon



Pedrarruna Manor, Elffire City.

7:56 PM.

There were only a couple of hours before the agreed time that Theo and the others combined to start the party.

At that moment, Aurora and the other three girls were inspecting the work they did in the place.

The manor's living room was enormous with floor-to-ceiling in the whole front part and a rustic wall with a tree fireplace on the other side. There were comfy couches and a giant TV to proportionate the best comfort. But after the girls decorated the place, it seemed like a magical gathering for magical creatures.

The ceiling was decorated with blue and golden clouds, and magical sea creatures could be seen in the middle of these clouds.

The walls were covered in azure and golden flowers and leaves. And between these flowers was the majestic and magical azure tree. In the middle of the tree, there was possible to see a golden fire warming the place.

"It's perfect!" Aurora exclaimed in wonder as she observed the place.

"I'm tired, but it was worth working so much." June commented.

They had worked for almost three hours to arrange this magical place.

Hanging the decorations on the ceiling was the process that took the longest time to complete.

"I wonder how's the food preparation going." Ryoko commented as she sat down a little to rest.

"I don't know, but the smell that's coming from the kitchen is amazing! I can't wait to eat." Sam exclaimed as she took a deep breath to take in the amazing smell of food.

"We should get ready for the party." June commented.

"We can get ready in the beauty salon on the second floor. There is a complete bathroom and all the beauty products and machines that we can use there." Aurora said with sparkling eyes. She was excited to have the girls in the beauty salon.

"Oh, that's right! I forgot about the beauty salon!" June exclaimed in excitement.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go!" Ryoko said enthusiastically as she stood up from her seat.

"Bring your things and we can go there get ready." Aurora giggled.

The girls nodded and picked up the bags they brought with the clothes they would wear for the party.

But before they climbed the stairs, they passed by the kitchen to so see how the dinner preparation was going.

When they arrived there, they immediately saw five people with focused eyes as they worked.

Each one of them was doing something different from the others, but they all had the same expression of focus.

"Big brother! How's going everything?" Aurora asked with a sweet voice as she tried not to drool over the amazing food in front of her.

Theo was surprised when he heard her voice, so he lifted his head and looked at the four girls looking at him, "It's going great! I think we will finish everything in one hour." He smiled.

"That's great! This way the girls can get ready with us." June commented.

"Kumiko, Shoko, Lauren, you should head to the beauty salon to ready with us when you finish your work here." Sam said.

Kumiko, Shoko, and Lauren nodded and agreed to her proposition as they wanted to get pretty for the party.

"How's the party decorations?" Theo asked.

"We finished everything. It's not because it's our work, but I have to say we did an amazing job." Sam giggled.

They all laughed when they heard her shameless declaration.

The girls talked for a while longer before they climbed the stairs to the beauty salon to get ready for the party.

Theo and the other three, on another hand, still had work to do before they started to get ready for the party.

Just like Theo imagined, with seven experienced and professional cooks working together, they would be able to finish cooking everything in record time.

"Lauren, how're things up there?" Theo asked as he carefully prepared the fillings of some preparations.

"The last time I went there, Gwen and Kin had the pies in the oven and they were preparing some ice creams, because of the pies I think they will take a while to finish. Max was almost ready with the entry snacks, I guess he will be the first to finish his tasks." Lauren replied as she continued working.

"Tell him that he finishes, he should start bringing down the food he prepared. After that, he should help Gwen and Kin, so they can finish in time." Theo asked without lifting his head.

"Yes, chef." Lauren replied.

"Kumiko, how's the sauce I taught you about?" Theo asked.

"I think I'm doing alright, chef. I followed all your instructions and now it's tasting the same way you said it should." Kumiko replied as she worked on the sauce.

"Really? Let me have a taste." Theo said.

Kumiko nodded and brought a spoon of the sauce for him.

Theo tasted it and smiled, "You did great, Kumiko. It's exactly the consistency and taste I was looking for."

Kumiko smiled in happiness at his compliment.

"Now, there's only a couple of hours before the party. We should start the preparations that take less time. Kumiko, you already finished all the sauces I wanted, you'll help with these dishes." Theo said as he looked at the seafood that Shoko had cleaned.

"Yes, chef!" Kumiko replied.

"Shoko, you start making all the kinds of rice we will need." Theo asked.

Several dishes had rice, and they demanded different preparations, that's why he needed Shoko to work on that as the rice didn't take much time to get ready. And they needed the rice ready to finish the dishes.

"Yes, chef!" Shoko.

"Lauren, you keep doing what you're doing. But when you finish, you and Shoko will help me and Kumiko with these dishes." Theo said as he and Kumiko started working together.

Just like that, the four of them continued working with focused minds, they wanted to finish everything as soon as possible.

They used all of their skills and expertise to cook these tasty dishes.

In the next hour, they finished cooking dish after dish.

Bouillabaisse (A classic French fish soup with seafood), Paella (A classic Spanish fried rice dish made with rice, saffron, vegetables, chicken, and seafood cooked and served in one pan), Osechi (With its all variations of components served in a bento), and others delicious dishes.

With every minute that passed, the kitchen was the stage of a fight between delicious smells coming from the dishes they finished.

It was an explosion of tastiness and seasonings.

And when Gwen and Kin started bringing down the pies and desserts they finished, the entire house was honored with the delicious smell of food.

When Theo and the others finished cooking everything, they smiled in happiness.

They couldn't wait to eat the delicious dishes they prepared!

The decorations and the food were ready!

The party could start at any time!

The New Year's Party was ready for them to enjoy!
