"I don't think I'm disturbing you, right? I can hear other people's voices around me … "
Cheil chatted with the Fire Relayer for nearly two hours. During these two hours, Cheil even had the illusion that the pain in his body had disappeared.
"I'm in a rather noisy tavern. If I'm disturbing you … I've already been disturbing you for almost two hours. It won't be a problem if I continue to disturb you."
"Let's call it a day." Cheil glanced at the Frost Spirit floating beside him.
A full two hours of rest had alleviated the Frost Spirit's fatigue. With a source of light, she could continue exploring the underground ruins.
Cheil found a wooden stick to support his weak body. Just as he was about to close the voice chat, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Hey, remember to visit Noland when you have time," the Fire Relayer suddenly said.
"Of course. I'll visit Noland the next time the portal opens."
Cheil sent the Fire Relayer an emoticon of an owl erecting its wings and then closed the voice chat.
The moment her voice chat ended, Cheil felt a powerful magical wave!
This caused Cheil to immediately enter combat mode.
In the next second, a dark green flame filled the air, completely dispersing the surrounding darkness.
A monster in the ruins? Cheil stared at the floating flames in the sky. As the flames rose, the surrounding space instantly distorted, and a huge creature jumped out of the distorted space.
Sinful … Demon.
Cheil immediately recognized the creature's identity. Its pupils emitted a dark green glow in the night.
The Sinful Demon immediately discovered Cheil hiding in a corner and walked toward Cheil with heavy steps.
"Stop! I know you can understand what I'm saying. "
The inscriptions surrounding Cheil's hand increased. She was accumulating the little magical power in her body, ready to fight to the death.
The sinful karma fiend didn't say anything. He was holding a wooden box in his hand. After he placed the wooden box on the ground and opened it, an alluring fragrance filled the air.
Cheil, who hadn't eaten for a whole day, smelled the aroma, and the hunger in her stomach began to affect her judgment.
"I didn't find any bees around, but I followed my master's orders and made a roasted venison for you."
The moment the sinful karma demon spoke, Cheil recognized it as the one she had met outside the city.
Her master … was also the Flame Bearer?
Roasted meat …
Cheil approached the sinful demon hesitantly. She couldn't be sure if the roasted meat was poisoned.
"Master said that if you don't want to eat it, he'll take you away from here." Zenas extended his claws towards her.
This Sinful Karma Devil did not have the smell of blood. Instead, it smelled like grass. What made Cheil even more astonished was … the Sinful Karma Devil's claws had been trimmed, and the meatball in his palm had been washed.
Were all the sinful demons raised by Noland so clean?
"It seems like this is the only choice I have."
Cheil sensed that the monsters in the underground ruins had been alarmed by the sinful demon. If she didn't leave now, she might become their food.
"Take these boxes with you. Your master might need the things in the boxes."
Cheil pointed to the metal boxes under the bookshelf. Under the illumination of the flames on Zenas' body, Cheil found many similar metal boxes nearby.
Zenas spent some time sealing the small metal boxes together with the roasted deer. He held the sealed wooden box with one hand and extended his other hand to Cheil.
"Pass my message to him when you return to Noland." Cheil placed her hand on Zenas' palm and said, "I'll go to Noland soon to thank him for his help."
Dark green flames spread in the surroundings. Space was torn apart by Zenas' magic. When the flames were extinguished, only darkness remained in the underground ruins.
… … …
Noland, Hearthstone Tavern.
Josiah sat at a wooden table in the hall on the first floor. Hiri sat across from Josiah.
Currently, the first floor of the Hearthstone Tavern was filled with machines for playing Hearthstone. Ordinary wooden tables with no functions were rarely seen.
Today, Josiah did not compete with Hiri in Hearthstone. Instead, he was playing an even more ancient game … Go.
"You've been thinking for almost half an hour, Miss Hiri."
After ending his conversation with the King of the Land of Frost, Josiah looked at Hiri.
She had been hesitating for almost half an hour.
"At times like this, I'm more concerned about who you were chatting with." Hiri stared at Josiah and said, "Could it be that Falosi's little … No, Carolee's child? It doesn't sound like it. "
"Actually, she's also a member of the Film Parliament. Do you have any impression of the name Frost Owl?"
Josiah saw that Hiri had finally placed a chess piece. He picked up his white chess piece and placed it right next to Hiri's.
"So it's the King of the Land of Frost?"
Hiri had, of course, watched the Dark Elves' documentary "Chaos of the Frost". The documentary clearly stated that the King was a male, but the appearance of the King was a little too feminine.
"Don't tell me you have some weird fetishes?"
When Hiri asked this question in a low voice, she looked at Ino who was chatting with Madam Marina.
Ino seemed to have noticed Hiri's gaze and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
But soon, Hiri turned her head away.
"That's up to your imagination."
At this moment, Josiah once again experienced the fear brought by the nun named Dinessa.
The nun's writings in the Immovable Library caused many women in Noland to awaken strange fetishes.
"Let's not talk about this topic."
This time, Hiri made her decision quite quickly. She looked for another path and placed a piece down.
"I feel that you seem to have returned to the state of a salted fish these two days?" Hiri said.
"I should say that I'm free …"
Josiah felt that this spellcaster lady had been completely infected by his fetishes. She had almost learned some of the strange words on Earth.
This … was also a kind of cultural invasion?
"I didn't make movies or games … Hmm …"
"But I set the rules."
Josiah picked up another chess piece and once again sealed off Hiri's path of retreat.
"I've been busy with this recently. The establishment of video websites has given ordinary people the opportunity to make their own 'movies', or should I say that it has given them the idea of entering this industry. Magic Net Cloud Music has set the new rules of this world's music industry. As long as ordinary people want to, they can upload their own songs on Magic Net Cloud Music, and those with talent and luck can become a star like Taylin."
Josiah picked up the green tea on the table and took a sip, looking at Hiri's conflicted expression.
"And the foundation of everything is built on the Magic Net Savings Bank. The Magic Net's financial system allows video producers and music producers to find practical benefits. This can also be considered as promoting the development of the entire entertainment industry. After all, if I'm the only director and composer in the world … it'll be a little too boring."
"Is it interesting?" Hiri was already used to Josiah's style of measuring the value of everything with 'interesting'. "Then what do you plan to do next? Make movies? Make games? Or … don't know? "
"For this multiple-choice question, I choose C." Josiah shrugged and said, "There are too many things to do in the future, so I don't know what to do. Maybe make movies, maybe make new games, maybe do variety shows, or something."
Josiah's irresponsible answer made Hiri sigh slightly. But just as Hiri was about to admit defeat, an owl suddenly jumped onto the table and tilted its head to look at the black and white chessboard on the table.
"Josiah, what is this?"
The grey-clothed man was already standing beside the wooden table. In order to clearly see the chess pieces and layout on the chessboard, he even wore a pair of wood-framed glasses.
