A strange world

Abby sees her new life in sight.

Since becoming a member of the Manor, it gets better every day. There is no complicated work, no need to worry about the younger brother, although new worries have been added - cleaning the ogre and worrying about the younger brother playing with the ogre.

But both he and his brother have more and more smiles on their faces.

Young Master Annan never scolded his servants harshly, he did not have an oppressive dignity, and he would not beat, scold or scare others. In order not to bring danger to the manor, he even pitched a tent outside the mage tower...

Would such a person be a fake noble? Then she would rather Breeze City is full of fake nobles!

But Abby didn't dare to tell Annan the truth, just because she was worried that the peaceful life in front of her would be shattered like a bubble.

Concerned, Abby continued to wipe the ogre's body.

"Where are you wiping?"

The rough whisper brought Abby back to her senses, and she apologized shyly and pulled out her towel and arm.

"It's okay, continue."

…

Annan was discussing the price with Michael and others in the study.

First exclude Soruman Bronzebeard's 100 gold coins, and then exclude Francois's 10 copper coins.

"Then 90 gold coins!"

"How about 1 copper coin?"

Before they continued to cause trouble, Annan had to talk about the cost:

The recording magic stone can only be used ten times, not counting the consumption of recording magic images once for the time being.

Because of the relationship between Annan and the Mage Tower, the price of the record magic stone should be suppressed to 10 to 15 gold. Assuming that there are 100 viewers for each "Mage Tower Down" show, a price of 10 to 15 silver coins will make Magic Image profitable.

But the number of people in the city who were willing to spend ten silver coins was about the same as the people who were willing to spend one gold coin - in other words, the price of 10 silver coins filtered out most Breeze City residents.

One silver coin would make many people in Breeze City willing to try something new, but it would be difficult to gather 1,000 spectators.

In the end, Annan decided to price the tickets at 1 silver coin, and then use the constant recording magic stone, which was ten times the price of the ordinary recording magic stone, and could not lower the price.

The ticket prices seem to be on the low side, with stage plays costing 5 silver coins. Even if half of the people in Breeze City go to see "The Fall of the Mage Tower", they will earn at most two to three thousand gold coins - but just like the theater's stage plays are always those popular stories but never lack of audiences, Annan is confident that "The Mage Tower Has Fallen" "The Fall" will make them watch it several times or even a dozen times.

This is a long-term business.

And he also adopted Soruman Bronzebeard's suggestion: the portion of 100 gold coins.

Sell ​​the Fall of the Mage Tower Record Philosopher's Stone signed by Jack, Rose, or any character for 100 gold.

There should be many nobles who are willing to collect them. And the ordinary record of the Magic Stone means that they have watched it nine times. If they still want to watch it, they have to spend 100 gold coins to buy a new Magic Stone...

The venue for the premiere was undoubtedly the Benitez Theater.

Annan asked Francois to lobby theater owners and Tina Wright to finish the final part.

But the shameless baron hit a wall at the theater - the theater owner refused to rent the theater, saying that he would never allow anything other than stage plays to enter the theater.

Annan had no choice but to go to the theater in person. Along the streets, he frequently saw caravans filled with harvest being transported into Breeze City.

There is less than half a month left before the real autumn harvest in the vast vastness, and there are only five days left before the countdown to the apocalypse forecast.

During this period of time, the ratmen were still frequently invading around Breeze City, but the city guards who had been trained by the scavengers began to become familiar with the rhythm of fighting the ratmen, and the situation of "being scratched by the ratmen, returning home, corrupting and killing their families" would no longer happen. tragedy.

During this period, Augusta Olmedo did not cause any trouble, otherwise "The Fall of the Mage Tower" would not have been completed so smoothly.

Annan and Michael came to the theater and saw the theater owner, Honatan Mays, in the office.

After the polite remarks, Honatan Mace asked Annan why he wanted to create the magical image.

"The attack caused heavy losses to the family, and we need money to survive the coming winter."

In order to promote magic images, Annan also demonstrated and recorded the magic stone in front of Honoratan Metz. However, Annan misjudged Honoratan Metz's conservatism and persistence and fiercely resisted Annan, saying that he would not let such a thing appear in the world. theater.

Annan said that magical images will not replace stage plays, but Honattan Mays does not believe it - magical images will indeed not replace stage plays, but will only become a better choice than stage plays.

Have to find another way.

In the evening, Annan, who returned to his felt tent, officially completed the editing of "The Fall of the Master's Tower".

"Can I watch it now?" Michael couldn't wait.

"Don't be impatient yet."

Before the premiere, Annan planned to invite everyone involved in the production of "The Fall of the Master's Tower" to watch the preview.

Well...not a party.

In the afternoon of the next day, Annan and all the actors came to the temporary tent.

Annan put down the recording magic stone with some expectation and anxiety.

The mottled and faded magical images slowly emerged as the choir of the Church of Fortune sang—

Three hours later, the magical image gradually dimmed.

Annan opened the curtain and let the light shine into the felt tent. But people are still not free from the dream-like story.

Returning to the Magic Stone, everyone looked at him and suddenly seemed to have returned to the eternal mage tower in Breeze City.

"This is the art we created...what do you think?"

Annan had already seen from everyone's reaction that the magic image was accepted by everyone.

There was silence in the felt tent for a few seconds, and a mage playing the role of a noble stumbled and said: "I...I don't know what to say..."

"I'm trying to imagine how great it is, but..." Another voice sounded.

Francois stroked his goosebumps and wanted to say something, and Andrew Luna paid tribute to Annan with the ancient courtesy: "I am honored to be a participant in this great work."

These spellcasters, nobles, and actors all made compliments.

Annan suppressed his pride and expressed some regret: "I originally wanted to prepare a premiere and invite the nobles of Breeze City to enjoy the magical images together, but the theater rejected me... It is a pity that we cannot let the nobles witness us together. The performance..."

"That Honatan? I'll deal with him!"

There was a noise in the felt tent.

Now the location of the premiere is no longer an issue.

“So beautiful!!!”

The excited shouts suddenly attracted an elite mage who stood up and said: King of the North! What would it cost me to have a magical image! "

"I'm ready. You can buy the magic stone recording "The Fall of the Mage Tower" for 100 gold coins."

"I want one!"

"King in the North, please leave one for me!"

"I also want!"

At this moment, the felt tent sounded like a market with noisy buying sounds.

"Boy!" The old master stood up and snorted coldly at Annan, and was helped out of the felt tent by the tear-stained old maid.

"What did he want to say?" Michael didn't understand.

"I guess he wants one too."

"King in the North, how am I doing?"

After everyone left the felt tent, the elite mage approached Annan and asked.

"The phrase 'it's so beautiful' is a little exaggerated."
