Before the spellcasters could bask in the joy of Belle's reunion with the Demon Prince, the scriptwriter once again revealed his ugly side.
Seven knights in full armor appeared at the bottom of a slope on the plain. Following a close-up of a delicate flower being trampled by the hooves of their horses, they raised their spears and charged towards Zenas and Belle who were sitting among the flowers.
"Who are the knights chasing after Belle?"
"From the emblem on their armor, it seems to be the emblem of the Kingdom of Saint …"
The Prophet could hear the discussions of the spellcasters around her, but she caught a familiar voice amidst the discussion.
"Mentor, we're back."
Since the Prophet was lifted up by Hiri, the spellcasters who entered the shop immediately saw her floating in mid-air. Her four apprentices were no exception.
The Prophet ignored her students and continued to focus on the screen.
Her apprentices were also obedient and did not ask why their mentor was being carried by a human girl like a baby.
On the other hand, the taller vampire girl among the four apprentices of the Prophet cautiously approached the Prophet.
"Mentor … Are the knights chasing after Belle from the Kingdom of Saint?" She lowered her voice and asked the Prophet.
The Prophet could hear the urgency and nervousness in her voice. Perhaps females were naturally more sensitive, and she seemed to have successfully immersed herself in the story.
"Those knights are undead. Didn't you see the red light under the gaps of their visors?" The Prophet immediately reminded her student after answering the question. "This is a story made up by His Highness, not reality. Lysa … You must know how to differentiate."
The Prophet glanced at the spellcasters around her as she reminded her. They seemed to have no idea how to differentiate between a movie and reality.
Even though the art form of movies had appeared in Noland for half a year, the female spellcasters present were still discussing the identity of the seven knights who were chasing after Belle and the Demon Prince.
The Prophet had a feeling that once these female spellcasters confirmed the true identity of the seven knights and watched the short film, they would immediately pick up their staffs and find them to settle the score.
And in the following developments, the Prophet felt that those female spellcasters might not just simply 'settle scores'.
The knights caught up to Demon Prince Zenas. When a rope net appeared out of nowhere and captured the Demon … The Prophet actually felt a murderous aura from the group of female spellcasters!
"These knights are too despicable!"
"Where's Bei 'er?"
"Master … Sinful Demons … should … be able to … break free from ordinary ropes?" The Blood Tribe girl called Lysa by the Prophet also fell into a state of unease.
The Prophet was not in the mood to answer questions from her students. The sparse discussion of the female spellcasters around her made the Prophet's blood run cold.
"Your Highness Josiah … I think these fans are no different from fanatics." The Prophet said to Josiah in an extremely low voice.
"Err, most movie fans will still maintain their rationality, but every movie will have a small group of … die-hard fans."
Josiah was not in a good position to comment on the somewhat extreme words of the female spellcasters in the shop.
The development of movies in this world had just begun, and they had not even passed their infancy. No matter how much Josiah emphasized that the stories on the screen were all fictitious, most movie fans could not differentiate between the stories on the screen and reality.
However, most movie fans were unable to tell the difference between the story on the screen and reality. After all, the movie was still a little too 'real' compared to the stage.
This led to most movie fans easily putting themselves in the shoes of the characters.
The plot of the short film progressed to the next part. Under the protection of the Demon Prince, Bei 'er escaped the pursuit of the seven knights and ran into the forest.
When the scene of the forest appeared, the spellcasters in the alchemy shop instantly became excited.
"Isn't this the Fluorescent Forest in the northern region of Noland?!"
"I went to this forest to collect fluorescent mushrooms the day before yesterday …"
The spellcasters instantly recognized the location of the forest. To save time, Josiah chose to shoot the scene near Noland.
The appearance of the familiar scenery increased the immersion of the spellcasters.
"Map! Did anyone bring a map of the Fluorescent Forest?! "
"I saw the immortal fir tree behind Bei 'er! If I remember correctly, Bei 'er's position is not far from the road! "
After confirming the specific location, the spellcasters instantly lost the mood to continue watching the short film.
An attendant from Klia's alchemy shop instantly brought out a map of the Fluorescent Forest in the northern region of Noland.
The spellcasters instantly displayed extraordinary coordination as if they were all from the same Mercenary Guild. They began to gather in groups of three to five and began to discuss the plan to rescue Bei 'er.
Josiah watched as the entire alchemy shop turned into a 'tactical command room' in just a few seconds. He did not know what to say for a moment.
"Hiri … Maybe I should choose the Demon Realm as the filming location."
"I've reminded you before. To the spellcasters of Noland, the Fluorescent Forest is equivalent to 'the first map out of the beginner's village'. Almost all the magic academies in Noland will arrange for their students to stay here for a day or two," Hiri said.
Josiah did not pay much attention to Hiri's words at first, but Josiah could already foresee that a large number of spellcasters and mercenaries in other places had already begun to discuss the plan to rescue Bei 'er.
"Bei 'er ran out of the Fluorescent Forest!" A spellcaster shouted as if he had gathered some important information.
At this moment, Josiah was a little glad that Bei 'er was safe in the ending of the short film.
If the final ending was that Bei 'er was trapped in the forest and faced the pursuit of the seven knights …
Josiah believed that a dozen 'Bei' er rescue teams' would soon step into the Fluorescent Forest to search for the pitiful girl.
"Shop … Why don't I remember Klia's alchemy shop outside the Fluorescent Forest?"
What happened next made the audience feel a little … confused.
At the beginning of the short film, the plot was more realistic. However, after the appearance of Klia's alchemy shop, the rest of the plot completely changed the audience's view of Bei 'er.
The gentle and kind little girl directly bought almost half of the alchemy products in the shop and armed herself to the teeth.
"What is Bei 'er doing?"
The audience was stunned by Bei's' Rambo and Stallone style 'outfit.
"She … seems to be planning to rescue the demon prince alone." Someone guessed Bei's intention.
"That's seven paladins we're talking about. Bei 'er doesn't even know magic …"
The audience did not dare to watch what happened next. Some of them could not wait any longer and ran out of the alchemy shop.
However, in the following scene, the delicate Belle raised the hammer in her hand and knocked a knight's helmet away like she was swinging a golf club.
The originally noisy Klia's alchemy shop suddenly fell into an extremely strange silence … The audience stared at Bei 'er on the screen, who raised the iron hammer high and personally punished the seven knights along with their horses.
