The next day, Josiah met the purple-clothed person at the Noland's National Theater.
She arrived at the painting of the Seven Sages on time, and the gray-clothed person stood beside her.
Today, the gray-clothed person still had the lecture content of the Philosopher's Lecture, so Josiah was not surprised that she would stand together with the purple-clothed person.
"Now, can you tell me the answer from yesterday?"
The purple-clothed person did not greet Josiah after seeing him. She went straight to the topic and looked at Hiri, who was standing behind Josiah.
Josiah took a step to the left and let Hiri walk forward so that she could answer the purple-clothed person personally.
"Although I don't really like the academic teaching, I must learn Illusion Magic."
Hiri walked forward. Today, she was carrying a satchel, and inside the satchel was the impression of the 'virtual creatures' that Hiri and Josiah had come up with together.
Previously, Hiri and Josiah had discussed how to make these 'creatures that did not exist in this world' appear in the real world, and Josiah had no idea at first.
However, Illusion Magic allowed Hiri to find a solution, and Hiri was not satisfied with letting these creatures only stay in the painting.
She wanted them to appear in reality … in the movie that Josiah wrote, so …
"I hope that Sage Mellors will let me become your student." Hiri placed her left hand on her chest and slightly lowered her head to the purple-clothed person.
The purple-clothed person listened to Hiri's request and was silent for a moment. Then, she waved at Hiri.
Hiri glanced at Josiah, who was beside her. After Josiah indicated that there was no problem, Hiri walked towards the purple-clothed person.
If Josiah was worried that this sage would use the illusion to do something bad yesterday, there was no need for Josiah to be so vigilant today with the gray-clothed person present. Moreover, Hiri also wore the Ring of Clarity that could make her immune to mind magic.
"Really … very similar."
The purple-clothed man reached out and touched Hiri's cheek. His gaze suddenly softened.
"She's exactly the same as Sylsa," the purple-robed man said softly.
"My mother?"
Hiri was not used to having her face rubbed by the purple-clothed man. She shook her head and broke free from the purple-clothed man's hand.
"You seem to have an unusual relationship with my mother."
"I just know … Your mother could have become a great Spell Caster," the purple-clothed man said.
"…"
The atmosphere became a little gloomy. Josiah knew that the topic of her mother was a taboo for Hiri. It was because of her mother's early death that Hiri's childhood became a mess, but the main culprit was her irresponsible father.
Josiah clapped his hands, dispelling the dull atmosphere around him, and then walked in front of the purple-clothed man.
"Miss Mylols, I have a job I wish to entrust to you."
"A job?"
The purple-clothed man was standing here today to work in the Noland's National Theater. Her job was to teach at the Sage's Lecture Forum, and the reward was that she could make Illusion magic known to the young Spell Casters of Noland. As for whether or not it could increase the number of Spell Casters willing to learn Illusion and Mind System, it would depend on the content of her lessons.
This was also one of the reasons why the purple-clothed man agreed to participate in the Sage's Forum.
"The content of the new job is different from the content of being a mentor on television, but the pay is also generous." The "generous pay" that Josiah was referring to was, of course, not money. At this age, these Sages could no longer satisfy their needs with material things. Most of them pursued fame and knowledge.
"…"
Hearing this, the purple-clothed man wanted to reject Josiah. What she wanted to do now was to pass on her knowledge to Hiri as soon as possible. If she had not promised Josiah before, she would have even resigned from her job as a mentor in the Sage's Lecture Forum.
However, the expansion of the influence of Illusion magic was equally important as the inheritance. Otherwise, there might not even be a Spell Caster who believed in the God of Illusion and Mind among the Seven Sages in the future, which would eventually lead to the entire magic system being forgotten.
"Please continue." The purple-clothed man planned to listen patiently to the task that Josiah had entrusted to her. She needed to maintain a cooperative relationship with this demon.
"It's a little complicated to explain it in words. Let's demonstrate it," Josiah said.
At this time, Hiri cooperatively took out a stack of paper from her bag. Josiah took the paper that Hiri handed over and chose one to show to the purple-clothed man.
"What's this? A demon? "
The purple-clothed man looked at the painting in front of her. The creature in the painting was definitely not a friendly existence. It had a stooped body and was completely black … The spine on its back bulged exaggeratedly. Its strong and powerful legs and hands were covered with sharp claws, and its tail was like a spear. Especially its head and mouth that revealed fangs and sticky saliva, it made the purple-clothed man's hair stand on end.
"The Demon World doesn't have such a terrifying creature. I call it 'Alien'," Josiah explained.
"Alien? A monster from another plane? "
The gray-clothed man could not help but speak up at this time. The 'creature' in Josiah's painting was too ferocious.
Just by looking at its body structure, the gray-clothed man could tell that this creature was a monster that was born to hunt.
"Uh … not really. This is just a creature that I made up." Josiah held the paper and asked the purple-clothed man, "Can you use Illusion to construct this creature?"
"That's not difficult."
The purple-clothed man's hand flashed with light purple inscriptions. It was not difficult for the spellcaster who had constructed the illusion of a Black Dragon to create a monster that was only two meters long.
A Xenomorph soon appeared in front of Josh. However, this Xenomorph looked a little … adorable?
When Josiah walked closer, he found that this Alien illusion was very similar in appearance, but there were many differences in the details.
For example, its skin was scales and some hair, and there was no other worm-like mouth in its mouth.
The purple-clothed man constructed the appearance of this creature according to her impression, but she did not know how this' virtual creature 'moved.
"Alien shouldn't be so silly. Its reaction speed is very fast, a bit like a wolf."
Josiah began to describe the characteristics of the Alien in words and let the purple-clothed man inject a soul into this' virtual body. '
The inscription once again flashed in the purple-clothed man's palm. The adorable Xenomorph instantly became ferocious. It laid on the ground and bared its fangs like a wolf. Its movements were also very wolf-like.
"It also has the ability to climb on walls, and its tail isn't wagging like a dog's. Its tail is also a weapon, and there's a secondary mouth in its mouth that can be ejected quickly. It's a bit like a worm."
After Josiah filled in the details of the Alien, a monster that only appeared in movies stood in front of Josiah.
It looked fierce and cruel, like a giant spider that climbed up the wall and suddenly jumped down.
This creature's lifespan ended when it scared a staff member of the National Noland Theater.
When the poor ticket attendant saw the 'Alien' that appeared in the exhibition hall, she was so scared that her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
"What's the point of creating this kind of virtual creature?"
The man in gray teased the two owls hiding in his beard. These two owls were also scared by the illusion of the Alien just now and didn't dare to come out.
"Yes, it's purely to scare people," Josiah said.
"Specifically to scare people in a movie?" The man in gray guessed what Josiah wanted to do. From the moment Josiah asked about the purple-clothed man's past, the man in gray guessed that Josiah was going to use illusion magic to shoot some kind of movie.
"Uh … I don't plan to shoot this kind of movie at the moment. Creating the Alien is just to test the extent of illusion magic. I really hope that the purple-clothed man will create this character."
Josiah showed another piece of paper to the purple-clothed man. On the paper was a tall figure with ice blue skin. It held a longbow in its hand and had two small horns on its forehead.
"I call this creature 'Avatar.'"
Josiah showed this creature that was a combination of demon, elf, and orc to the purple-clothed man.
