Anton served some of the food that he had in his inventory to Torun, Blake, Andrea, and Soren and they enjoyed the snacks while they sat surrounding the Dire Bear, enjoying the warmth the huge animal was exuding.

The main reason why his friends visited him was to inquire about the Cosplay event. They saw the flyers that were being distributed to the passengers and even though they were excited especially when they saw the prizes, they were aghast at the price of the entrance tickets.

“My father saw the flyers as well and since we already told everyone that we could attend the event free of charge, they told us that we’re taking advantage of our friendship with you,” Andrea said.

“It’s my family’s event although it will be hosted by one of my friends. That meant that as an archmage of the family, I had the right to invite anyone I wanted and I already invited you all and your family and that means that you don’t have to pay for the entrance tickets. I’ve read somewhere before that the only reason why one would suffer through having power was to defeat your enemies and reward your friends so this is the result of me having power, having the privilege of inviting my friends to an event that was mostly going to be celebrated because of what I did,” Anton said while rolling his eyes at everyone.

Andrea smiled while the others just shook their heads. After that, they talked about the costumes they were planning to wear.

Andrea would wear an Eowyn Costume, Blake chose to come as Eomer, Eowyn’s brother. Torun wanted to be Aragorn during the event and Soren said that he liked Boromir and would wear something like what Boromir was wearing.

“When are you going to start preparing your costumes?” Anton asked.

“No rush since the event is still around three weeks away. We have plenty of time,” Torun replied.

“Are you sure about that? My family and friends started to prepare their costumes today. They’re now in the bazaar shopping for materials they want to use to make their costumes. If you hope to win any of the prizes, I suggest that you work on your costumes already,” Anton told his friends.

That comment made Andrea worried and without further ado, urged her brother and the others to start making their costumes so after a while, they all left together even though Torun and Soren still wanted to stay with Anton.

After a few minutes, the others returned from their shopping spree and the moment they arrived, the ladies retrieved all the materials they bought and placed them on the dining table. Then the ladies took their notebooks and their pens and started drawing the costumes they wanted to create.

Unfortunately for Anton, he was asked by everyone, including Walter and Frederick, to show clips of the characters from the movie so they could inspect the details of the costumes.

“What's with the effort?” Anton asked.

“There’s no exclusion on the possible winners of the best costumes. That means that anyone can win!” Walter said.

“Isn’t that unfair if the family and friends of the cinema owner win?” Anton asked.

“No, since the panel of judges would consist of different people from all walks of life,” Walter answered.

“Still, you will have a huge advantage over others since I can show you the details of characters' costumes every time you want,” Anton said.

“Well starting tomorrow, the trilogy will be shown every day starting from The Fellowship of The Ring to The Return of The King consecutively so those who want to check out the details of the character’s costume they wanted to make, can watch the movie again. Not only that, the tickets that they will purchase for the day can be used for that day and that meant they only had to buy a single ticket for the three movies until the event,” Walter continued.

Anton’s eyebrows rose when he heard that but then he showed them the advantage they had over others. Using the internet, Anton showed them some of the plans to create detailed costumes for each of the characters from the trilogy since the netizens from Earth uploaded them.  The plans include colorful pictures and videos on how to create specific patterns and even the correct stitching one could use. Although not useful, some of the plans even included places where one could purchase some of the accessories.

When they saw the plans, they all gasped and each one of them clamored for Anton to search for the plan of the characters they chose. Anna said that she chose Arwen which he found weird since Anna had blonde hair and would have been perfect for any other blonde characters like Eowyn. He quickly found the plan for the dress that Eowyn wore when she first appeared in the Two Towers film and showed it to Anna but she insisted on coming to the event as Arwen so Anton found the plan for one of Arwen’s dresses. The plan was so detailed that Anna quickly copied them.

“Now I understand what you mean about the advantage that we will have but that’s the world for you. There’s no total equality,” Walter shrugged.

While everyone was copying the details of the plans for their costumes, Anton thought of how silly everyone was being but then he internally shrugged. These moments might be the only moments they had to enjoy themselves. He felt that the world was at war with the undead and soon no one would have time for any sort of silliness and would only focus on fighting it out with the undead so Anton didn’t begrudge anyone for enjoying these moments. He decided that he would try his best to enjoy them as well since having his Diablo II system allowed him to become very powerful. He would probably be in the middle of the war with the coalition in the future.

While some were busy copying their costume’s plan from the projector screen, others were busy reviewing the details of the plan they already copied when Andres and the others entered the suite.

Anton explained to his father and the others the situation and reiterated that it might be unfair for the members of the family and friends to be included in the competition for the best costumes. Anders was about to agree with his son when Antonia and Lucia said what Walter had said earlier. That there was no absolute fairness in this world. After that, they asked Anton to show them the plans for the costumes for the characters they would choose.  

Devon and Colin told everyone the characters they chose and for Anton’s father, Selena told everyone that Anders would come as Aragorn and that she would be his bride, Arwen. Anna complained that it was going to be weird since she chose Arwen as well.

“Well, there’s a limited amount of characters in the Lord of The Rings so it’s inevitable to have tens of Arwens, Eowyns, and Galadriels,” Anton said.

“We realize that now so the next time we hold a cosplay event, it will include all the movies that were shown in the cinema but more than likely it will be on New Drennor after the cinema’s established there,” Antonia said.

Anna grumbled then changed her mind and chose to come to the cosplay event as Eowyn so she asked Anton to show her the plans for Eowyn’s costumes.
