The next day, Harry returned to the filming location with his mother.
That day, not much happened—his shoot went smoothly. Since he didn't have any dialogue, he simply had to appear on camera.
During his time on set, Harry grew closer to Brian and Scarlett. Both of them found him incredibly cute and charming, often commenting on how handsome he was.
After wrapping up for the day, Harry went back home.
Next day
Harry woke up feeling excited. Today was an important shoot—one of the most crucial scenes for his role. After getting ready, he and his mother, Sarah, made their way to the filming location.
Upon arriving, Harry greeted everyone as usual. When he spotted Brian, he noticed something was off—Brian looked unusually nervous.
"What are you doing, Big Brother Brian?" Harry asked.
"Nothing… just trying to relax," Brian replied, forcing a small smile.
Harry frowned. "What happened?"
Brian sighed. "I just can't seem to get into character today. I messed up my last scene."
"Oh," Harry said, surprised.
"I don't know why, but I just can't connect with the character," Brian admitted.
Harry tilted his head in thought. "But I think you're actually very similar to Aldric," he said, referring to the film's main character.
Brian raised an eyebrow. "Huh? How?"
"Well, you're both ambitious," Harry explained. "Aldric is an unknown king trying to reclaim his throne, and you're an actor just starting out, trying to make a name for yourself. Both of you are burdened by expectations."
Brian blinked in surprise before breaking into laughter. He ruffled Harry's hair. "You're pretty sharp, kid."
Then, his laughter faded, replaced by a thoughtful expression. "You know… that actually makes sense," he admitted. "Talking to you, I feel a little less nervous now."
Harry fidgeted slightly. "You're welcome, I guess…"
Brian chuckled. "I don't know why I ended up sharing my problem with a kid, but I'm glad I did. You really helped."
Just then, Lucian's voice rang out.
"Brian, your shot is ready! Get over here!"
"Yeah, I'm coming!" Brian called back before turning to Harry. "Let's talk later, okay?"
"Okay!" Harry watched as Brian walked away, now looking much more confident than before.
Afterward, Harry returned to his mother, who was sitting on the side. He sat next to her, waiting for his turn.
A while later, it was time for Harry to shoot his scene.
After getting dressed, he approached Lucian for further instructions.
"You'll start over there, then move from that point to here," Lucian explained, pointing at different spots on the set.
Harry had several scenes to shoot today, which made him even more excited.
Once Lucian finished giving instructions, Harry took his position. Activating Limitless Inspiration and his Subconscious Method Acting, he fully immersed himself in the role.
"And… action!" Lucian called out.
The shooting area is filled with corpses—red and silent.
Then—light.
A single flickering glow illuminates the ruined palace. The once-pristine marble floor is now cracked, splattered with streaks of deep crimson. Shattered stained-glass windows cast fractured colors over the scene, their beauty now a cruel contrast to the tragedy unfolding.
At the center of it all—a boy.
Harry, playing Young Aldric.
He stands beneath the towering throne, his breaths short, uneven, trembling. The air is thick with tension. No music. No background noise. Just silence.
Then—a voice.
KING EDRIC (COMMANDING, YET DESPERATE)
"Take Aldric. Run."
The crew watches as Harry's entire body stiffens. Not just his face—his whole body reacts. A subtle but deliberate flinch. His shoulders rise, his chest falls in short, panicked bursts.
His fingers twitch—tiny, uncontrolled movements.
Then—he looks up at his father.
And in that moment, the audience forgets it's Harry.
They see Aldric.
ALDRIC (HARRY, VOICE BREAKING, ALMOST A WHISPER)
"No… Father, come with us!"
It's not just a plea. It's raw. A child desperately trying to hold onto the one thing he cannot lose.
The actor playing the king falters—just slightly. Like he wasn't expecting the depth in Harry's voice.
"And… cut! Good job, everyone!" Lucian announced. He turned to Harry with a pleased smile. "Especially you, Harry. That was an outstanding performance."
"Thank you, sir!" Harry beamed, back to his usual self.
Lucian called for the next scene, and Emily, who played Aldric's mother, stepped forward.
"This scene is where the king is hit by a spell…" Lucian began explaining.
Once everyone was in position, he called out, "Action!"
The king is struck.
The sound of his body colliding with stone fills the set.
Harry's lips part—but no sound comes out.
Not just shock. Complete, paralyzing devastation. His small hands lift halfway, hesitating, fingers curling like he wants to reach out—but knows he's too late.
The queen grabs his wrist.
QUEEN LYSARA (VOICE SHAKING)
"Aldric—look at me. You must run."
But Harry doesn't look at her.
His gaze stays locked on the fallen king. His expression isn't exaggerated—it's real. A slow, creeping horror settling into his young features.
Then, the enemy moves.
A spell fires—aimed at him.
And then—the queen moves.
The moment her body is struck, something inside Harry snaps.
He lets out a sound. Not a scream—something worse.
A ragged, choked breath, like the air has been stolen from his lungs. His mouth opens, but no words come. Just a single, silent sob before his entire frame collapses to his knees.
The crew feels it.
A beat. Then another.
Someone clenches their fist.
Even Emily, playing the queen, stares at him—her breathing slightly uneven.
"And… cut!" Lucian called out.
For a moment, silence filled the set.
Then—applause.
Everyone erupted into cheers, clapping for Harry.
"Thank you, everyone!" Harry said, smiling.
Even the actors playing his parents clapped for him, clearly impressed.
After Some more scene Harry shooting come to an end.
"Well, that's the end of your scenes," Lucian said.
"Yeah," Harry replied, a little sad.
He had truly enjoyed the past three days, spending time with the cast and crew.
After some final conversations, Harry and his mother left for home.
Back at the Filming Location
Even after Harry left, the crew was still talking about him.
"This kid is really good," someone remarked.
"Good? He's excellent!" another chimed in.
Lucian smirked. "Enough chatter—get back to your positions."
Brian turned to him. "Seriously though, he's a natural-born actor."
"And he's good-looking too," Scarlett added.
Lucian chuckled. "Not just that—he's also a talented author."
Brian and Scarlett looked at him in surprise. "What? Really?" they said at the same time.
"Yeah, he wrote Echoes of Ethan—the novel that's been making waves lately," Lucian revealed.
Scarlett's eyes widened. "So he's multi-talented…"
Lucian nodded. "Yeah he is And I can't wait to see what he'll achieve in the future."
