Carolee and the Blackwood Elves left Noland the next day. Before they left, Josiah gave them a bunch of local specialties from Noland.
The World Singer competition finally came to an end. It was a pity that Saintess Heroria didn't perform well in the finals. After the competition ended, Josiah didn't see her again in Noland.
This time, she snuck out of the Kingdom of the Saints. She definitely wasn't as free as the Flower of Falosi.
"After the World Singer competition ends, should I find some new programs to fill the gap?"
Josiah was sitting in the manager's room of the Noland's National Theater. The decoration here was as luxurious as the National Theater of Noland. Even the crystal lamps were gilded.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. After Josiah said, "Come in," the Knight Of The White Thorn pushed the door open and walked in.
"Mr … Mr Josiah." The Knight Of The White Thorn seemed to have run all the way here. His breathing was chaotic, and his forehead was covered in sweat. He didn't even have time to wipe it.
"Calm down, Knight Of The White Thorn. What happened? Could it be that the construction team dug up the theater and collapsed it again? "
Josiah didn't like the decoration of the National Theater of Noland, so Josiah handed the renovation work to the Knight Of The White Thorn to make the theater look more like a TV station than an art museum.
"This time, I've invited the best craftsmen of the Building Association. Many of them even participated in the construction of the Mage Tower. But Mr Josiah …" The Knight Of The White Thorn seemed a little out of breath. He pointed to the door and said, "There are many people outside the National Theater of Noland who want to see you."
"See me? Although I have plans to recruit some new members for Noland's Voice, I haven't posted any announcements yet. "
Although Josiah was the creator of the Weave and movies, he wasn't as famous in Noland as Belle and Taylin.
Beier and Taylin now had to disguise themselves well when they walked on the streets. Otherwise, they would be recognized soon and cause chaos.
Of course, Josiah's popularity in the movie was not as good as theirs.
"Also, I don't have time to see them for the time being. Let them go back." Josiah thought for a moment and made a decision.
"They … are envoys from Noland's Chambers of Commerce and nobles."
The Knight Of The White Thorn was an absolute socializer in Noland. Even if the nobles didn't know the Knight Of The White Thorn, the ladies of the nobles were very familiar with this gentleman from Falosi.
Therefore, the Knight Of The White Thorn could basically recognize all the important people who had lived in Noland for a period of time. Today, almost half of the nobles who were studying in Noland or the merchants who came to Noland to do business were present.
They either came to visit in person or sent messengers to deliver letters.
"I've just contacted them. Mr Josiah, if you reject them all, your reputation might be affected in various countries," the Knight Of The White Thorn said with uncertainty.
"Is the advertisement of 'Beauty and the Demon' a little too powerful?"
Josiah immediately guessed the reason why these nobles and merchants came here. Although the person in charge of the Klia Chamber of Commerce, Frit, had a bit of business sense and would hide the information related to the advertisement.
However, it was impossible to hide the fact that the sales of the alchemy shop under the Klia Chamber of Commerce had increased by several times due to the advertisement.
After witnessing the terrifying power of the advertisement, the merchants from other chambers of commerce could not sit still.
When the packaging of the cake was opened and the aroma of the cream completely overflowed, the rats had no reason to continue wandering around in the sewers.
Furthermore, in order to compete with the other competitors, they would rather send someone to negotiate with Josh or pay him a visit in person than using such an inefficient method of communication.
"I saw a lot of people outside the door. If you jump out of this window, you should be able to escape. There's a small alley behind it."
Miss Hiri had thoughtfully thought of a solution for Josiah and opened the floor-to-ceiling window behind Josiah.
"Hiri … This is the third floor," Josiah said helplessly to Hiri.
"Don't worry, I can catch you."
Hiri showed her arms. Her slender arms did not look like those of an adult male who could jump down from the third floor.
Although Josiah felt that he would have no problem jumping down from the third floor with his current body, but …
"If we choose to escape now, it's equivalent to offending more than half of the merchants and nobles in Noland. Moreover, they come from all over the world, and many of them might be our potential partners," Josiah said.
"Then should we hold a banquet here? I remember that you don't like these social gatherings. You always hide in a corner and drink juice, "Hiri sharply noticed that Josiah did not like to attend banquets hosted by nobles.
"Indeed, I don't really like it. I don't mind if they come one by one, but today, I can only use a more forceful method to reject them."
Josiah glanced at the clock on the wall. When it was almost noon, Josiah stood up and walked out of the room.
"Forceful method? Mr. Josiah, if you don't like to attend these banquets, I can do it on your behalf. "
The Knight Of The White Thorn found a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his forehead. He was a little afraid that Josiah would do something drastic.
"Don't worry, I definitely won't let anyone here feel unhappy."
Josiah tidied up his clothes and walked towards the main hall of Noland's National Theater with Hiri.
"This …" The Knight Of The White Thorn could not think of any way to reject the nobles and merchants.
While he was deep in thought, Josiah and Hiri had arrived at the entrance of the main hall of Noland's National Theater. As soon as the door opened, Josiah would be greeted by nobles and merchants from all over the world.
Josiah held the door handle and gave the Knight Of The White Thorn an answer before he pushed the door open.
"And that is to let the nobles and merchants understand that I … am not the kind of existence that they can meet whenever they want to … Simply put, let them realize that my position in Noland is not just that of the citizens who are slightly more fortunate."
The Knight Of The White Thorn listened to Josiah's words blankly. When he returned to his senses, Josiah had already pushed the door open and entered the magnificent hall.
And just as the Knight Of The White Thorn had expected, the nobles and merchants waiting in the main hall swarmed towards Josiah like rats who smelled cream.
But before they could greet him, the Knight Of The White Thorn saw the crowd suddenly go silent.
The nobles and merchants who were walking towards Josh froze on the spot as if they had seen something terrifying, as if they had been electrocuted.
The Knight Of The White Thorn shifted his gaze to the entrance of Noland's National Theater. In an instant, he understood why the nobles and merchants were afraid.
Three figures in long robes appeared at the entrance. When they approached Josiah, the nobles and merchants respectfully made way for them. The entire crowd split into two with Josiah in the center.
Sages! The Knight Of The White Thorn recognized them. They stood at the pinnacle of power in Noland. It could be said that they were the most powerful Spell Casters in the world!
The three great beings slowly approached Josiah. Josiah could only welcome them with a smile.
"Welcome to the Noland Television Station. By the way, you're ten minutes late." Josiah's voice echoed clearly in everyone's ears.
To the nobles and merchants, it sounded like this young man was openly questioning the mistakes made by the three Sages of Noland!
If the Sages of Noland were willing to visit a noble's party, no one would question them even if they were a few hours late.
"This is Crosier's fault. I thought he wouldn't come today," the man in gray said to the man in yellow beside him.
"I told you yesterday! Rursk! Today, I'm here to watch you make a fool of yourself in front of the people of Noland! "
The two highly respected sages began to bicker, while the purple-clothed sages standing beside them yawned in boredom. Then, they glanced around.
"These people are the audience you found?"
"Audience?" Josiah smiled and scanned the crowd. "If you have time, why don't you stay behind and listen to the lesson from the man in gray?"
