Chapter 24: Theater (2)

People may be illiterate, but most of them always have eyes and ears.

Therefore, operas and various forms of stage plays can be said to be the most influential art in the world. Countless stories have been written into various plays and have been repeatedly staged in every corner of the mainland. This is true for humans, dwarves, elves, and even barbarians in barren lands.

Apart from the Titan Giant, the main reason is probably that they can't find a big enough stage.

The content of the story fully demonstrates the thoughts, cultures and yearnings of different races.

For example, there will always be at least one human being secretly cut down the forest in their plot, and the final result must be that human beings will be executed. Even a romantic drama that is completely unrelated to human beings.

For example, dwarves, their lines are filled with all kinds of swear words. There is always a hypocritical elf and a human who wants to steal their treasures.

For example, humans. In the kingdom of humanity, the most important plays are generally holy dramas and knight dramas. Needless to mention holy dramas, this is a play funded by the Holy See, mainly to promote the greatness of the Holy Spirit. As for knight dramas, they are generally funded by nobles. The protagonist is usually a knight, who will cut down one or two evil dragons, or one or two lichs, and then marry a princess home. Although people do not understand why dragons and lichs like to kidnap princess so much, they always have to kidnap one or two, right? Otherwise, who will the knight marry after defeating the villain?

Hum? You said the devil? No, no, the devil is the villain of the holy drama. Although they are all made up, they are also very particular.

Of course, sometimes the villains in knight dramas may also be humans. This is also a matter of particularity. For example, in the Kingdom of Isaac, if the villains in the story are humans, then the king of the Kingdom of Alan is generally not running away. The grudges and hatreds of these two countries have a long history, and they have to fight almost every hundred years. This is still the case of the church mediation. What should I do when there is no fight? Of course, it is to dig out the other party's soldiers from the grave and put them on the stage and then beat them to death repeatedly.

Some people have counted that there are at least 10 million soldiers in the Isaac stage play every year, which is more than ten times the total number of casualties they died in battle for thousands of years. You can imagine that the same is true in the Kingdom of Allen.

Moreover, these plays are funded by the royal family of both parties.

Although most of these dramas are written by third-rate screenwriters, with chaotic logic and chaotic plots, and the actors' performances are uneven and lacking ingenuity, it is obvious that they have a huge influence on ordinary people, especially those who have insufficient understanding of the world. Sometimes they even play a key role in shaping their values.

For example, Gray can be classified into this category now. He seems to have opened the door to a new world.

When Grey was excited when he saw the protagonist being dismissed from the engagement, he slapped the coffee table indignation!

When he saw the protagonist being bullied by the rich second generation, Gray was excited again. He wanted to run up and beat him up!

When he saw the protagonist finally counterattack, Gray was excited and screamed with excitement!

When he saw the protagonist's memory loss, Gray kept muttering regret.

In short, Gray stepped on all kinds of routines and bloody pits. Yes, he stepped on them all. I'm afraid there will be no other audience in this world who is so easy to deceive. It's simply a blessing for screenwriters.

The black cat yawned lazily on the side.

"I really don't understand what's good about it. Didn't you just propose to be rejected? Why didn't you see you so excited?"

"Huh? It seems to be. Could it be..." Gray turned around and looked at the stage and said, "I am the destined protagonist?"

The black cat almost fell off his eyes.

...

The residence of the Gruglu family.

At this moment, Shelley, who refused Gray's proposal but suffered a lot of grievance, was still immersed in sadness and cried, but the venue was changed from his bedroom to the hall. Earl Grugru sat next to him and watched, holding a pipe in his mouth.

"Grandpa, you can't let him bully your poor granddaughter like this. You have to help your granddaughter get justice! This is related to the face of our Gruglu family! You must not just forget it!"

Shelley was so excited that he almost couldn't breathe. However, the Earl of Grugru didn't seem to care so much.

He spread his hands and said, "Then my poor granddaughter, what do you think I should do?"

"Mobilize your troops and beat him up!"

"Obviously this is impossible. Mobilizing the army to attack Gray at this time is almost equivalent to declaring war on the Beshill family. They are having a big fight with the royal family, and we shouldn't go to this muddy water."

"Then... then we put pressure on the Beshill family! If they don't punish Gray, we won't support them!"

"So they punished Gray, and we support them? This is even worse. I'm afraid that if I come up with this idea, that little girl Yilin will laugh out loud."

"What should I do?" Shelley choked with tears.

"You can choose to agree to his proposal, so that won't you prove to everyone that he has indeed proposed to you? All the problems have been solved." As he said, Earl Grugru spread his hands again.

With a "wow", Shelley cried even harder.

"Okay okay, grandpa is kidding." Earl Grugru could only quickly comfort him: "You should think about using your method to solve it. Are you very good at this?"

Shelley stared at his grandfather in a daze.

"You have so many suitors, you can consider mobilizing them and letting them find a way. Even if they fail, it has nothing to do with you, right? Don't always think about doing it yourself. This is not a tradition of our Gruglu family. Even if you kill someone, you will always get blood when you hold a knife. Do you want to get blood?"

Shelley shook her head blankly.

"If you don't want to get blood, don't do it yourself. Do you understand? This is the style of our Gruglu family."

Shelley nodded blankly.

"Okay, go back to the room and think about how to deal with him. Or go to bed early. Go." As he said that, Earl Grugru waved his hand, just like seeing off guests.

Helplessly, poor Shelley had to salute in grievance and turn and leave.

When I returned to my room, I really couldn't think of any good idea, so I had to decide to listen to my grandfather and call my suitor tomorrow.

"It's time to test them, isn't it? Go to bed now and keep your spirits up! Kill that Gray tomorrow!" Shelley said angrily.

...

It took about two hours to finish the "Sequel to the Knights' Guide to Becoming a Master". Black Cat thought it was time to go back, but Gray continued to watch the next "Dragon Quest". So, it took another two hours.

"Wow! Seen, 'sacrifice'! The protagonist is saving his companions!"

"It's nothing wrong with this 'righteousness'! The protagonist resisted the temptation and refused to bow his head to the evil lich!"

"Wait, how could the Dragon Quest have a Lich? What if he cares about it."

"Oh my God! How could he do this! This is a violation of the Knight's Oath!"

"This dragon looks evil!"

The black cat wanted to tell him: "Do you want to see what real evil is? Just take off your helmet."

Of course, saying such words is obviously meaningless to a lich whose butt is so crooked that he can't find the North.

The theater owner's tickets were crazy, and he dared to make a promise. Since this year, there has not been any such crowded event. He has even started selling station tickets. Even station tickets are more valuable than tickets. Because there are several places in the corners of the stage where you can see Gray's compartment, and now it is crowded with people.

Gray watched the show, while the audience was watching him.

It was not until the theater closed that Gray left reluctantly.

The owner of the theater held Gray's hand tightly and couldn't do it for a long time. When he knew that Gray was coming tomorrow night, he almost knelt down and called him dad. The other audience members even tried to shake hands with Gray, but the actors in the stage play were all left aside, as if the play was played by Gray.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier with such a good place? I found that I finally understood the true meaning of being a knight! I have a new understanding of the spirit of chivalry!"

"Oh, is that?"

"I decided to be a respectable knight like them!"

"You are the most respected knight in the entire White City now. What else do you want?"

"This is different. I still have a gap with them! Wait, is this considered 'humility'? I resisted the temptation of 'arrogance' in my heart and completed the sublimation of the chivalrous spirit?"

"Yes, you're right, you're right." The black cat sneered.

When he got on the horse, Grey shouted loudly: "Let's go! Tenidas!"

The bone horse seemed to have found a soulmate, raised its horse's hooves and neighed a long time. Everyone looked at this side.

"I can't wait for the rising sun to rise tomorrow! A new journey is waiting for us!" This sentence resounded half of Baicheng.

The black cat felt that his face was lost, but the audience around him applauded.

Squatting on the roof and looking at Gray from afar, the male angel muttered silently: "You said, will this lich be crazy?"

"It's a bit like. But I've never seen such a crazy method before." The female angel replied.

...

Anyway, the first day of life in Grey White City, oh no, the next day ended like this.

Grey started a new life, and Baicheng welcomed the most "great" knight in history.

As for Black Cat, its nightmare has just begun. Because Gray no longer laughed like "Gaga" in the middle of the night when he watched "Knight's Guide to Becoming a Creator", he even acted from beginning to end in the room, performing while flipping books. Black Cat is forced to play the villain, or minion, and sometimes play the rescued princess.

Well... I even get goosebumps when I think about it. Anyway, I am very ashamed, so I won’t describe it.
Chapter completed!
