Since the prophet was sleeping in the study, Josiah and Hiri turned off the lights and went to the Hall of Silence next door.
Taylin was in the Hall of Silence, sharing a story called 'Snow White' with Noland's listeners.
The Frost Elf saw Josiah and Hiri walk into the Hall of Silence, and she smiled and waved at Josiah.
"Has the Soundless Hall been invaded by some sort of plant-type magical creature?
Hiri's face suddenly stuck to the window of the Hall of Silence. This action startled Taylin, but she quickly recovered and continued to tell the story in a gentle tone.
"Those should be the leaves of the World Tree, but the speed of their growth is a little scary."
Josiah walked to Hiri's side and patted her on the shoulder, reminding the spellcaster to be more ladylike.
However, the scenery in the Hall of Silence was indeed strange. Large amounts of green leaves and glowing leaves were entrenched on the walls, and the floor was covered with roots that looked like vines.
"I think that's the reason."
The Weave unfolded in front of Hiri, displaying the interface of Noland's Voice. The number of listeners under Noland's Voice had reached 400,000.
"That's equivalent to one in four Noland residents listening to Taylin's story of 'Stepmother Rejects Me'. That's the content, isn't it?"
"It's only the beginning of Snow White." Josiah corrected the spellcaster lady's misconception and looked at the number of listeners under Noland's Voice.
For a city like Norland, which only had a population of slightly more than one million, 400,000 listeners was already an extremely terrifying viewership ratio.
"It's all thanks to the success of the World Singer," Josiah said.
"Then why did the competition end so early? If there were more people in the semi-finals, the competition would have lasted longer. "
Although Hiri knew that this seemingly fair competition was riddled with shady secrets, she still enjoyed watching it despite knowing so much.
There would always be some unexpected surprises that would surprise Ciri.
"Because the audience would get bored after watching too many of the same performances. Moreover, this competition was meant to help the Blackwood Elves speed up the growth of the World Tree." Josiah paused for a moment before continuing. "But the real reason is that I'm too greedy … Noland's audience isn't enough to satisfy me."
"Just like how the Weave covers the entire world?"
Hiri had been by Josiah's side countless times and had witnessed Josiah's incredible feats. The number of listeners for Noland's Voice was the same.
This also caused Hiri's attitude towards Josh to change from 'this kid is crazy' to 'oh, and then?'.
"So do you want to freeload dinner with me tonight?"
Josiah showed Hiri the interface of a spellcaster camp. The owner of the camp was the Flower of Falosi, Carolee, and Carolee's personal camp had the most followers out of all the other camps.
There were already thousands of messages, and the Flower of Falosi would post several messages about the camp almost every day.
Today's latest message was: 'Final farewell banquet. Ah! You really don't want to leave Noland! ' This message was accompanied by a table filled with various fruits and drinks.
There were thousands of replies to this message. Some were to send Carolee off, while others were to persuade Carolee to stay.
"Alright!" Hiri naturally wouldn't miss this chance to freeload dinner.
Before leaving, Josiah wrote a note and pasted it on the glass of the Hall of Soundless so that the Frost Elf could see it when she raised her head.
'Come to the Falosi Residence for a banquet after the banquet. If you're tired, you can rest in the tavern.'
… … …
The Falosi Residence, the indoor garden.
"Can I paint everything in front of me on a 'white paper'?"
"It's not a painting. How should I describe it? It's to record everything you see on paper. It's not an oil painting or a charcoal drawing, but something you really see with your own eyes. "
Carolee was teaching Ruvita, a country girl from the forest, how to use a camera.
Tonight, the Blackwood Elves held a not-so-grand celebration to commemorate the growth of the Holy Tree and enter a new stage.
In Carolee's opinion, it was no different from a noble's ball, except that there wasn't as much deception and flattery.
"You just have to press the 'shutter' on it."
Carolee and the main character of today's ball, Ruvita, were hiding in a corner of the garden. Ruvita was holding the camera that Josiah gave to Carolee.
"Like this?"
Ruvita held the camera very carefully, afraid that even the slightest movement would damage this intricate magical machine.
Although Ruvita didn't spend much time with the Forest Maiden, she knew how important this camera was to Carolee.
She clearly remembered that when Priest Olanca wanted to borrow this magical machine from the Forest Maiden out of curiosity, Carolee instantly revealed a vigilant expression as if her dried fish was threatened.
Ruvita felt very lucky that Carolee was generous enough to lend her this magical machine.
She followed Carolee's instructions and pressed the shutter on a bunch of flowers in the garden.
"Let me see."
Carolee injected magical power into the magical machine, and a freshly taken photo was projected in the form of a projection before Ruvita and Carolee.
"It really is the same as what I saw in my eyes." Ruvita reached out to touch the flower before her, but her fingertips passed through the projection.
"This is only the first step. There are still some complicated steps to make this image appear on a piece of paper, but now …"
Carolee picked up the camera in her hand and aimed it at Ruvita.
After her training as a world singer, this Dark Wood Elf was able to remain calm when facing things like cameras.
"Forest Maiden, what should I do?" Ruvita didn't understand why Carolee suddenly wanted to leave her 'image'.
"The final champion of the world singer, you're about to leave Noland. Aren't you going to bid farewell to the people of Noland?"
"Bid … farewell? But Forest Maiden … Will there really be humans who care about my whereabouts? "
Although the nun from the Holy Kingdom performed a bit poorly in the finals, Ruvita used her singing to once again conquer the audience of Noland and win the championship.
But this champion didn't seem to realize that she had become a celebrity.
"Of course there will be people who care, and a lot of them! Not only do they care about your whereabouts, but they also care about what you do every day, what kind of food you enjoy every day, and what kind of mood you have. "
As a senior, Carolee began to teach Ruvita, but this caused Ruvita's hair to stand on end.
"Why would humans care about this?" Ruvita couldn't imagine the feeling of being stared at by a large group of people every day no matter what she did.
"Because they like you. Seeing someone they like doing anything makes them happy. Ruvita, it's impossible to make people like you just by singing. You still need to learn how to communicate with them." Carolee said.
"Communicate? Forest Maiden, there should be humans all over the world who like you, right? Do you have to communicate with so many humans?"
Ruvita didn't think that becoming a super popular opera singer and actress would be so troublesome!
"That's quite impossible. In the past, because of my mother, I couldn't listen to the thoughts of the audience at all, let alone communicate with them. But fortunately, I met Josiah …"
Carolee fiddled with the magic machine in her hand, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her slightly young face.
"Child of Chaos?"
"Spellcaster camp. I'll have Josiah open it for you later. Now, please smile, your fans are all waiting for you to say goodbye."
Ruvita still didn't understand what Carolee meant.
Ruvita, who had lived in the forest since she was a child, still couldn't understand the meaning of idol and celebrity, but she knew that she succeeded and won the championship of that competition. Most importantly, the holy tree also welcomed a new life!
"All of this was given to me by those who liked my singing, right?" Ruvita suddenly asked.
After getting an affirmative answer from Carolee, this dark wood elf tried her best to squeeze out a smile, but the corners of her eyes couldn't help but overflow with tears.
Everything happened so suddenly that Carolee was at a loss, but Carolee still pressed the shutter and recorded this scene in the crystal forever.
