Noland Enforcers.
The disappointed look on the yellow-clothed man's face made Sike feel bad.
As the disciple who had followed the yellow-clothed man for the longest time, he knew that even though the man in front of him was strict and irritable, he was still a teacher who cared for his students … or rather, the whole of Noland.
After all, Noland was' saved 'by the yellow-clothed man and the first few members of the enforcers who risked their lives.
The yellow-clothed man had also watched Noland develop from a small, unknown city to the world-renowned capital of magic circles.
Noland had 'grown' with time, but the pioneers who had once protected the city had all become elderly, and most of them had even left the world.
"Teacher, your way of handling this matter is too outdated." Sike finally expressed his opinion. The yellow-clothed man hadn't fought at the frontlines of Noland's enforcers for a long time.
Sike had a much higher right to speak about the current situation in Noland than the yellow-clothed man.
"Outdated?!" After listening to his disciple's words, the yellow-clothed man immediately noticed a particularly harsh word.
"Teacher, please calm down. Before you get angry, I have a piece of information that I believe you will be very interested in."
Sike was very calm in the face of his teacher's rage.
A magically constructed inscription appeared in his hand, and a sealed cabinet was opened under the influence of the inscription. Stacks of thick records flew out and landed on the table in front of the yellow-clothed man.
"Teacher, I know that it was you who guided us young spellcasters seventy years ago. You are the pioneer of Noland, and also a witness."
Sike sat in front of the yellow-clothed man and straightened his body as if he was participating in some grand ceremony. He stared closely at the yellow-clothed man's sunken eye sockets.
Time had turned that high-spirited 'genius' into an old man. While Sike sighed, he also hoped that his teacher could face the truth.
"But now, Noland has changed too quickly. From the time before and after the World Expo, Noland has been undergoing earth-shattering changes almost every day."
"After the World Expo? Sike! I've guided more than half of the Universal Exposition's magical machinery development. Are you saying that my understanding of magical machinery can't keep up with the times? "The yellow-robed man's voice boomed like thunder.
Facing the yellow-clothed man's question, Sike's solemn expression didn't change at all. This burly middle-aged man lowered his head deeply towards the elder.
"I'm not talking about Noland's magical machinery development, but what the Noland people like." Sike said.
"You like it?" The man in yellow was slightly stunned. Sike took the opportunity to flip through the records on the desk.
The man in yellow roughly glanced at the contents of the record. The first page was from last year, roughly one month before the start of the World Expo.
The content of this record wasn't about the World Expo. The title of the record clearly stated 'White Thorn Flower Theatre'.
"My duty is to ensure the safety of the people of Noland, so I patrol the streets of Noland almost every day." Sike paused here for a moment. After glancing at the silent man in yellow, he continued to speak about his past experiences.
"Before the World Expo, the discussions of the spellcasters on the streets were mostly related to magical machinery and alchemy workshops. For example, 'Which academy's students developed outstanding magical machinery' or 'A new alchemy workshop has been built there'. I believe … this is the Noland that you're familiar with, teacher."
Sike observed the yellow-clothed man's expression when he said this. The yellow-clothed man nodded his head almost imperceptibly.
This was also the impression the older generation of Noland had of this city.
"Unfortunately, teacher, from this day onwards, the discussions of the people of Noland have completely changed."
Sike pointed at the record labeled 'Beauty and the Devil'. The title clearly stated that 'Beauty and the Devil' was shown in the White Thorn Flower Theatre.
"After this show appeared in the White Thorn Flower Theatre, it took the entire Noland by storm in a short period of time. The White Thorn Flower Theatre even defeated the National Theatre of Noland, which had Falosi's number one troupe, the Black Swan."
Sykes pointed to another record. The title of the record was the appearance of "Hearthstone".
"Not long after that, a tavern launched a game called 'Hearthstone'. This game, which uses cards and magic-guided machines, was very popular among the dwarves."
"I remember that the grey-clothed man showed this machine to a bishop of the Country of Saint during the Universal Kingdom Expo."
The man in yellow seemed to know very little about Hearthstone. After all, with his personality, he wouldn't pay attention to something that was' too frivolous'.
"'Hearthstone' also became very popular among spellcasters after the World Expo. From then on, five out of ten spellcasters I met on the streets talked about it, such as' I'll definitely get a Legendary card today 'or' I'll definitely get a Legendary card today '. The other two were probably talking about the movie' Beauty and the Devil '."
As Sike described the change in the people of Noland's tastes, the man in yellow's expression became even more unsightly.
"I've been staying in the wizard tower and alchemy workshop for too long. I didn't expect the 'poison' to appear so early."
The man in yellow's gaze fell on a name that was repeatedly mentioned in the record. It was' Josiah Yanorod '.
"Teacher! I don't think the movie and Hearthstone can compare to the 'Magic Addiction Stone'! On the contrary, their appearance is beneficial to Noland! "Sike's words completely disregarded the man in yellow's feelings.
"Beneficial? I've been tricked by the man in gray to watch a movie called 'Beauty and the Devil'. I admit that I've never seen magic or magic-guided machines that project scenes from the past on a flat surface, but the story of 'Beauty and the Devil' can't be described with logic. "
Perhaps it was an illusion, but when the man in yellow mentioned 'Beauty and the Devil', he became visibly agitated.
"This illogical thing will only distort the thoughts of young spellcasters nowadays. That game called Hearthstone is just a waste of spellcasters' time to explore knowledge!" The man in yellow directly voiced his opinion.
Sike once again witnessed his teacher's stubbornness. He could understand that spellcasters didn't know what entertainment was during Noland's most difficult era.
They used books as their companions, falling asleep every day as they explored the path of knowledge. Only by relying on knowledge to obtain greater power could this weak city stand firm in the world.
The yellow-robed beings still held onto this belief even to this day. They traveled between the Magus Tower, the alchemy workshop, and the academy every day, and rarely mingled with the people of Norland to experience their lives and thoughts.
