I'm Not A Master, I'm A Director (Type-Moon Fanfiction)

Chapter 78: Shinji, You're the Fattest!

"Diarmuid! Diarmuid! Diarmuid—"

It must be said that in terms of fanatical devotion, ordinary moviegoers simply couldn't compare to the fervor of female fans.

Watching the sea of people blocking the roads, Shinji couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

When planning this promotional event, Shinji's idea was to casually interact with fans in the central square of Fuyuki City, record footage of the live event, and provide material for future "Fate/Zero" promotions.

Shinji had originally been worried that there might not be many people at the event, and he had even considered using some magecraft tricks to attract passersby to liven things up if the scene was too quiet.

But unfortunately, although the prototype of Fuyuki City was the port city of Kobe, the actual scale of Fuyuki City was much smaller, comparing the two, it was like comparing the metropolis to the ham town of Jinhua.

If possible, Shinji would have preferred to hold the event in big cities like Tokyo or Osaka. But who could blame the Heroic Spirits for not being able to leave Fuyuki City?

However, reality delivered a resounding slap to Shinji's face.

On the day of the event, female fans from all over Japan completely blocked the roads in downtown Fuyuki City, and the crew's convoy could barely get in.

Shinji had not anticipated being surrounded by so many fans, and he almost twisted his face to make sure it wasn't just someone playing a trick on him.

Fortunately, the Fuyuki City Hall had already learned about the situation before the crew, and immediately organized police forces to help maintain order at the scene.

The Fuyuki City police were at a loss. They had worked in this position for many years and had never seen so many people!

Who were all these people? Where did they come from? And what were they doing in Fuyuki City?

The policemen pondered these philosophical questions in their hearts.

But these three questions were very easy to answer. These people were all fans of Fate, they came from all over Japan (some even came from abroad), and what they were here to do was to see the real-life actors.

Especially Diarmuid, many female fans weren't necessarily Fate fans, they came just to see if Diarmuid was as handsome in person as he was on screen.

After all, the handsome guys on screen had makeup and lighting effects, often presenting a much higher level of attractiveness than the actors' actual appearance.

Compared to the beautification of movie scenes, the software beautification used by future internet celebrities was simply child's play.

In fact, a few well-meaning fans had secretly decided before attending the event that if Diarmuid's appearance was too poor, they would post comparison photos online.

The female fans never would have thought that Diarmuid's appearance in person was the highest they'd ever seen.

Because only face-to-face, could that "beauty mark" on his face play its greatest role, and the allure on the screen couldn't even compare to a tenth of it.

Naturally, when the female fans saw Diarmuid in person, they all erupted.

"Diarmuid! Diarmuid! Diarmuid!—"

The female fans at the scene were uniform and orderly, like a tsunami of cheers, making one wonder if the sky would collapse under their shouting.

Although Arturia and others were also very popular, compared to the enthusiasm for Diarmuid, it was hardly worth mentioning.
