Chapter 287

“Actually, this interview can be recorded. That said, if you all wish to see it live, I have no objection to it at all.”

Under the rain and holding a paper umbrella that doesn’t quite match the setting of this world, Joshua walked over to the people surrounding the crystal ball.

“Teacher Joshua,” When Hyrlan saw Joshua, she respectfully addressed him as teacher.

Joshua’s identity in Lursk Advanced Magic Academy was that of a teacher. Furthermore, he was a teacher personally invited by their headmaster.

“Big sis, it sounds weird for you to address him as teacher. That said, should you all find a location to hide from the rain?”

Ciri blocked the rain falling from the sky with her hand. Then, in a very natural manner, she walked over to get under Joshua’s umbrella. As the umbrella was too small, Joshua had no choice but to lean it toward the mage lady.

“That...”

Hyrlan quietly watched as her younger sister entered Joshua’s umbrella. She seemed to realize something remarkable. Nevertheless, she managed to contain the question in her mind and point toward the direction of the arena.

“We can take shelter from the rain in the arena’s hallway.”

Hyrlan and Sansa took off for the arena ahead of the rest. Joshua deliberately slowed himself down to match Prophet’s pace.

“The magic you have is quite different from mine,” Joshua looked at the young looking girl.

Prophet had created a layer of barrier around her body. All the raindrops that landed on that barrier were absorbed by it. Even though this little girl was standing in the rain, her clothes showed no trace of wetness.

“Your Highness, I am of the same race as you. It’s just... we are slightly different in certain aspects,” replied Prophet.

“Slightly different?”

Joshua had never once bothered researching into his race or lineage. Apart from the Chaos Demons’ magic destruction ability that was completely imbalanced against mages, Joshua doesn’t feel like Chaos Demon had superiority in any other aspects.

“The Chaos Demon’s royal clan are known as the ‘Watchers.’ As for my clan, we are known as the ‘Observers.’ For now, I still do not know the meaning behind those titles,” After a brief moment of hesitation, Prophet revealed some facts to Joshua.

“For the sake of extending my life, I’ve transferred my soul multiple times. Unfortunately, some of my memories were lost in the transfers. The memories I have in this body are also pitifully few,” Prophet pointed to her head, “But, I’ve frozen my former dying bodies. If you wish to learn more about my memories in those matters, there are diaries about them in my personal library.”

“Eh... there’s no need for that. I’m not really interested in the demon’s dark history. I am merely curious as to how things are in the demon realm right now.”

Joshua was standing outside the arena’s entrance. Due to the rainstorm, the arena was packed full with students. Joshua thought about finding a quiet place to talk when Prophet’s voice sounded in his ears.

“On the surface, with Her Highness Cecily keeping a close watch over the Demon Realm, things appeared very stable. But, due to the crop failure, that stability will not persist for much longer. Her Highness Cecily has been hoping that Your Highness Joshua would be able to solve that problem.”

Since Joshua asked about it, Prophet decided to officially bring up the matter about the famine. Apart from studying humanity’s most advanced magic knowledge and bringing it back to the Demon Realm, she also came to Norland to find a way to solve the issue with the famine.

“If it’s about food, I’ve already dispatched my men to purchase foodstuffs. The first batch of food will be able to be delivered to the Demon Realm through the underground dwarven city tonight.”

Prophet seemed to have used some sort of unknown magic to establish a special communication with Joshua. It was similar to the magic network’s messaging function.

“I will pass that on to Her Highness Cecily.”

Through her investigations and observations since coming to Norland, Prophet had a rough idea of Joshua’s powers and influences in Norland.

In Norland, a metropolis established by human mages, this demon prince hold powers no weaker than a grand noble. It could even be said that his power was second only to the Seven Sages.

The interpersonal relationship he established with the magic network was simply too frightening.

Whether it be the dwarves living in the underground city below Norland or the humans living on the surface city of Norland, Joshua had influential friends in both parties.

“But, the heavy responsibility of illuminating the Demon Realm’s tree of technology will still be up to you all,” Joshua took a glance at the four apprentices behind Prophet.

Joshua remembers that his older sister Cecily had told him that the ‘Demon Realm was not his burden. Instead, it was his last shelter.’

Through the invasion of culture, Joshua had acquired ‘terrifying’ success.

Once the Voice of Norland television station matures, Joshua would have to, in addition to expanding the magic network outward to other cities and nations, push the Demon Realm forward.

“The magic knowledge present in the academy is not the limits of humanity. You all will have to acquire certain achievements to enter the Sage Towers to learn... This included the knowledge about arcanotech devices technologies.”

“Your Highness Joshua, I wish to take your course,” said Prophet all of a sudden. Her words were sent directly to Joshua’s ears.

“My course might be... a bit too hard to understand for you all. But, my classroom has never been full so there are always empty seats.”

Joshua does not feel that it would be wrong for Prophet to skip past the industrial age to learn about the information age.

While Prophet had the appearance of a little girl, the soul living in that body was countless times older than him.

Norland National Theater.

Since the owner of the theater changed to Sir Weissenasche, Sir Weissenasche began to quickly utilize the theater per Joshua’s instructions.

The first duty of the reborn Norlan National Theater was the place of audition for ‘World’s Singers.’

Today, after being completely silent for nearly a month, Norland National Theater would finally be able to recreate its former glories. In order to participate in the World’s Singers, citizens from all over Norland gathered at the theater.

Among them were two people from the Nation of the Holy Church — a nun and a knight.

“Lady Lia... I... there’s really no need for me to take part in this.”

Messai was feeling extremely uneasy. The reason for that was because she was not dressed in a knight’s armor. Instead, she was wearing a long skirt Saintess Herolia meticulously selected for her.

In her entire life, Messai rarely wore any other clothes apart from nun outfit and knight’s armor. She was simply unable to accept such feminine attire.

Since earlier, the female knight has been holding onto the helm of her dress with her hands, pulling it down. Even though the dress was already over her knees, she still can’t feel any sense of security from it.

“Messai, if you don’t participate, it will be an enormous waste of your natural endowments.”

Herolia spiraled around the female knight. She has not stopped gasping in admiration since a while ago.

Messai’s figure could totally be described as ‘outlandish.’ Unfortunately, Messai would always cover her charming figure with ice-cold metal. It was only today that Herolia discovered her womanly charms.

“My duty is to ensure your safety,” Messai was still against revealing herself to the public.

“And this is my command. Well then... it’s time for us to enter. Let us hope that you will not be eliminated in the first round, knight Messai.”

After giving Messai a thought-provoking smile, Herolia entered Norland National Theater.

After following Herolia for half a month, Messai has grown accustomed to her unreasonable behaviors. In the end, her sense of duty defeated her sense of shame. Following Herolia, she entered Norland National Theater.
