At the end of the song, the terrifying number of 27,321 votes was displayed on the projection at the back of the stage.
All the audience members in the auditorium stood up and applauded this ordinary civilian girl.
Including Josiah … Josiah applauded for the nun's choice of character.
Before singing, she answered Josiah's question with the identity that she set at the beginning. Based on her answer … she successfully portrayed an ordinary but hardworking girl in front of the audience.
She lived at the border of the Holy Kingdom in her early years. Her mother taught her her first song when she was young. From then on, she fell in love with music and learned from her mother.
Unfortunately, because of the war, her mother passed away five years ago due to the cold plague. Now, she followed her father to Noland, hoping that more people could hear the songs that her mother wrote.
If the 《Singer of the World》 was compared to a game, this nun had undoubtedly grasped the strategy to clear the stage. She even manually wrote a cheat code.
That was, the song she sang was not a hymn from the Holy Church's national scripture, but a song that a mother gave to her daughter.
Josiah asked Carolee while listening to her performance, but Carolee shook her head and said that she had never heard of any similar songs.
In other words … this song was written by this nun on the spot!
The melody and lyrics of the song were extremely emotional, and the nun's slightly choked singing halfway through the song.
If it wasn't for the fact that the winner of this competition was already decided, perhaps she would be a strong contender for the championship.
The 23,000 votes behind her proved her success.
This poor girl who loved her mother deeply but couldn't meet her mother successfully won the sympathy of the audience in Noland.
Most importantly, her singing was perfect to the point of being impeccable.
"Thank you … thank you everyone …"
After the song ended, she covered her mouth with her hand, tears welled up in the corner of her eyes, and she bowed to the audience in fear.
This moved expression once again aroused the overflowing sympathy of the audience. Her votes instantly rose to more than 28,000 votes.
Josh had thought that writing the 'cheat code' for the Dark Elves would be enough to make them stand out from the rest of the contestants. However, the nun had grasped the rules of the game, or rather, the war, without anyone's guidance.
"I hope that your late mother can hear your singing."
Josiah still cooperated with the nun's performance. She also thanked Josiah with tears in her eyes and walked off the stage under Taylin's guidance.
"Is this really good? Her singing just now was very … scary. "
Carolee sent a message to Josiah.
As expected of the Flower of Falosi who had followed her mother to perform all over Falosi, Caroline had been guided by the best opera singers in Falosi since she was young.
Even if she was only singing a very ordinary song, her singing skills could only be described as scary by Carolee.
"It's enough that she attracted more people to this program." Josiah smiled at Carolee.
It's enough for her to attract more people's attention to the show. Josh smiled at Caroline.
But as the organizer, Josiah knew very well that the contestants themselves were just a tool to attract attention.
The more people were willing to go to the 'television' for a certain contestant, the more Josiah's goal would be achieved.
The more people who were willing to watch a certain contestant on TV, the more Josh's goal would be achieved.
"The Dark Wood Elf priests' singing skills … are not as good as her." Carolee said what she was really worried about.
"Don't worry, those elven ladies still have the cheat code I gave them … But now, Miss Carolee, I have to leave for a little while."
"Don't worry, those elven ladies still have the cheat code I gave them … But unfortunately, Miss Carolee, I have to excuse myself."
After Josiah finished writing this message, he immediately stood up from the judge's seat. At this time, the camera was pointed at Taylin on the stage.
No one noticed Josiah's departure.
"Josiah … Mr. Josiah … Where are you going?"
Ino, who had been sitting next to Josiah, noticed Josiah's movement and asked with some fear.
In front of so many people, it could be said that Josiah gave Ino the courage to sit in this seat.
"Go and confirm the identity of that Miss Nun. Ino, you must sit here. After all, many of the audience came for you."
Josiah did not have much of a presence in Noland. Apart from a series of Josiah's name appearing in the cast list behind the scenes, Josiah was far less famous than this succubus.
"Not long after, the Knight Of The White Thorn will return to take my place."
Josiah waved at Carolee and Ino and walked behind the stage. During this time, Hiri, who had been sitting in the audience, held her magic staff and followed Josiah.
"Another fight?" Hiri seemed to have guessed Josiah's intention of leaving midway.
"Of course not. It's just a small negotiation."
Josiah waved his hand lightly and sent a message he received from the Mana Net to Hiri.
Hiri opened the message and found that it was sent by someone named 'Heroria'.
'Josiah Yanorod, the third prince of the Demon Realm … Can you make an appointment? I have something to discuss with you.'
"This guy … knows your true identity?"
Hiri clenched her magic staff tightly. Although this message seemed very friendly and polite, Hiri could still feel the provocation, or rather … threat.
"Not only does he know my identity, but he also seems to know a lot about the Demon Realm," Josiah said.
"Don't tell me it's the Sacred Army?" Hiri immediately thought of the Sacred Army squad they met on Squirrel Street.
"Her identity is much higher than the Sacred Army. If she revealed her identity and came to Noland, it wouldn't be a small Sacred Army team protecting her, but an entire army. Her visit would also develop into a diplomatic problem between the two countries."
Josiah walked behind the stage. The National Theater of Noland was twice the size of the White Thorn Flower Theater, and there were so many rooms that it could be treated as a luxurious hotel.
Therefore, Josiah specially arranged individual resting rooms for some special contestants.
While Josiah was talking to Hiri, he arrived at the door of a contestant's resting room.
"I'm guessing it's the girl whose mother died on the stage," Hiri said.
"You guessed correctly, Miss Hiri."
Josiah didn't knock on the door. He placed his hand on the doorknob and pushed open the room's door.
The moment the door was pushed open, a sword suddenly stabbed at Josiah. The wielder didn't have any killing intent, and she just wanted to use this method to stop Josiah from entering the room.
Just as the sword was about to touch Josiah, pure white runes appeared on Hiri's magic staff behind Josiah, and it successfully blocked the attack.
"This is how you Sacred Army welcome others?" Hiri saw the face of the wielder. It was the female knight Messiah.
"…" Messiah also saw Josiah's face.
The female knight didn't expect Josiah to appear here, and after a moment of shock, the words she wanted to retort to Hiri got stuck in her throat.
Not long after, Heroria's voice came from behind her.
"Stop, Messiah. They are my guests."
"But … Lady Rheia!" Messiah's voice sounded a little anxious, and even when she was given a new order, she didn't plan to move away from the door.
"Move away, I don't mind."
Under Heroria's repeated reminders, Messiah turned around and walked into the room, so that Josiah and Hiri could see the things in the room clearly.
After Josiah saw the girl called 'Lady Rheia' sitting in the room, he was wondering if he should find a camera to record this scene.
Because she was changing her clothes, and her fair skin looked a little dazzling under the light.
But this beautiful scene didn't last long before Josiah felt a warm and soft touch behind him, and in the next second, Josiah's eyes were covered by the spellcaster lady behind him.
As expected, was it time to deduct Hiri's salary?
