Noland. An owl flew into Josiah's office carrying a package sealed with kraft paper.
The owl placed the item on the windowsill and stopped to look around.
"So that's how it works?"
Josiah signed his name on the package with a quill and infused some of his Order mana into it.
After the runes on the surface of the bag identified Josh's mana, the owl finally let go of the bag.
After Josiah fed it some pine nuts, the owl flapped its wings and flew into the sky.
Josiah opened the sealed package. There was a bunch of dried fruits and candies inside, as well as some very suspicious looking food.
"So this is the snack of this world?"
Josiah picked up a roasted lizard and a scorpion skewer. These snacks were given to Josiah by his sister, Fuya.
Perhaps it was a gift from her sister to express her gratitude after Josiah helped Fuya open the Mana Vault.
"Ugh."
Josiah picked up another can of candies. Looking at the colorful candies with some insect corpses inside, Josiah made the wise decision to seal the package and find a time to feed it to others.
"Fuya, I've received your gift. Also, the guide on the Vision is very well done."
Josiah sent a message to Fuya, but the reply he received was a very simple "Okay".
Fuya and Josiah rarely communicated. Currently, the only people who could talk to her were Dorothy and Carolee, and that was when they were playing Minecraft together.
The dark elves told Josiah that Princess Fuya's personality was a bit weird, but her game guide was impeccable.
Josiah opened the Mana Vision website. The ranking Josiah set would change once a week.
By now, Fu Ya had already created her second strategy, and she had reached the top five in just a day's time.
Josiah opened the video Fuya made and put five gold into the 'bounty pool'.
After doing all of that, Josh glanced at the clock hanging on the wall of the study. Today was the Saturday that Josh had set, and the time just so happened to be noon.
"It's about time."
Josiah left the study and went to the third floor of the Hearthstone Tavern.
The rooms on the third floor were all bedrooms, but there was an exception, which was the room that was converted into a classroom by the purple-clothed person.
"Is the lesson over?"
Josiah watched as Hiri walked out of the room. Beside Deathwing, there were also Ysera and Alexstrasza following behind her.
"It's over … It's just that there's a lot of homework." Hiri looked at the three mini dragons behind her.
These were all created by her illusion magic. At first, the purple-clothed person only had Hiri maintain the illusion of one dragon, but now she had to maintain three at a time.
This was a huge test for Hiri's mana reserves.
"Then let's relax a little during the weekend."
When Josiah said this, Hiri seemed to remember something bad. The illusion of the three dragons behind her gradually became blurry, indicating that her mind was in a mess.
"I'm talking about going for a walk outside of Noland. Do you want to come?" asked Josiah.
Hiri did not give Josiah an answer, only nodding silently.
… …
"Speaking of which, you've been staying in the Hearthstone Tavern recently."
Hiri sat in the front passenger seat of the magic car and looked at the scenery on the street. After seeing the posters of "Avatar" hanging on the houses on the street, she suddenly turned her head to Josiah. Even her body unconsciously moved closer to Josiah.
"Are you going out today to shoot a new movie?"
"Unfortunately, you guessed wrong." Josiah could hear the anticipation in Hiri's voice.
This spellcaster lady was the first audience of "Beauty and the Devil". She was also a loyal fan of Josiah's identity as the director.
"Avatar" had been released for almost a month, but Josiah still had no clue about his next movie.
"Today, I'm mainly going to see the Music Guild that I commissioned the Knight Of The White Thorn to build," said Josiah.
"Music Guild? Are you sure it's not the Bards Guild? "
"It's still fundamentally different from the Bards Guild. When Taylin records songs, she can't always run to the Falosi Residence. It's necessary to build a professional venue."
Josiah drove the magic car to a slow stop outside the White Thorn Theatre.
Although the craze brought about by "Avatar" had gradually subsided, the line of fans in front of the White Thorn Theatre had not decreased.
Another reason was that a new movie from the Falosi Family was released today.
"Do you want to watch it?" Josiah pointed to the movie on the poster, which was called "Springtime Of Nalagna".
From the publicity of the poster, it should be a love story from the Falosi Family. The director was, of course, Mrs. Sizer, but the main character was not her daughter, Carolee.
This movie was also Lady Sizer's first attempt. She did not shoot an ambiguous script, but chose a movie that was easy to understand and easily resonated with the audience.
As for the box office, Josiah had no way of knowing for now.
"Didn't you say that you want to go to that Music Guild?" Hiri was still worried about what Josiah wanted to do.
"Alright …"
Josiah turned the steering wheel and drove to a building not far from the White Thorn Theatre.
This building was much more deserted than the White Thorn Theatre.
"Mr. Josiah!"
The Knight Of The White Thorn seemed to have been waiting at the door for a long time. After Josiah parked the magic car by the roadside, he acted as a guide and led Josiah into the Music Guild.
"The decoration is still the same as before, Falosi's aesthetic." Hiri looked around the hall.
The surrounding decoration could only be described as luxurious. Relief sculptures made of gold were embedded in the walls, and there were all kinds of expensive paintings hanging on the walls.
"The decoration is only part of it, Mr. Josiah. I've invited many excellent musicians from Falosi to work here." After the Knight Of The White Thorn finished speaking, he looked behind Josiah. "Mr. Josiah, you … Did you bring Miss Taylin today?"
"Taylin is preparing for the afternoon program, so she did not have time to come," Josiah said.
"I see. Many of the musicians I invited are Miss Taylin's fans. This is probably the reason why they are willing to settle down in Noland."
The Knight Of The White Thorn had a wide network in Falosi. The musicians he invited were all paid a lot of money.
The concert that Taylin held in Noland was broadcasted to Falosi through television, and Taylin's singing conquered many Falosi musicians.
"Knight Of The White Thorn. Actually, this music guild was not specially established for Taylin …"
Before Josiah could finish his sentence, the guild door was pushed open in an extremely violent manner, and a group of people swarmed in in the blink of an eye.
At that moment, Josiah shielded Hiri behind him, but the Spellcaster lady immediately picked up her staff and prepared for battle.
The group of people who suddenly barged into the guild weren't some commoners. They were well-equipped, ranging from heavy armored Knights to leather armored Archers wielding longbows.
Judging from the degree of wear on one of the knights' armor and the dried bloodstains, it was obvious that their equipment was not just for decoration. They had really fought on the battlefield.
Every one of them looked expressionless, but the atmosphere called 'ferocious' and 'dangerous' quickly spread throughout the hall.
Josiah noticed that the most conspicuous part of their clothes had a scarlet mark, which looked like a two-headed viper.
"Are they here to cause trouble?" Hiri whispered to Josiah.
"Who knows."
Josiah's gaze swept across the group of people, and gray magic gathered in his hand.
