Chapter 889

(Unedited)

…

Central Town was still as bustling as ever and it seems that the town's population has once again increased. At this moment many people are discussing an advertisement that has been going on in the town for a month now. The advertisement on the radio and the papers have truly attracted the attention of many people.

From commoners to nobles, warriors, and mages alike, and everyone around the town and its nearby villages heard of the news and everyone are excited and wanted to see it for themselves.

This is because the Mystique Shop will once again take out a new 'technology' which is given a tag line 'a window to the world'. The tagline and the ads were too catchy that everyone is now curious about what it was.

At this time in the flying ship…

It has been a month ever since the operation has finished. Many of the elves have left and Olley, the 3rd elder, and Levia are the only ones who remained in the flying ship.

The reason for this is because of the 3rd elder's recovery. Although the operation was a success, the 3rd elder has suffered a slight problem with his motor skills. It seems that the soul bugs are connected to that part of his brain and they seem to have done something with it.

And so it took a while before the 3rd elder was able to move on his own. Levia and Olley both took care of him and spend their time with the crew and people inside the ship.

Even Loom would always visit and also take turns in taking care of the 3rd elder.

Levia's soft side was touched by the action of the girl and she now has a great impression of her. Plus she also learned of her ability to talk to animals which is something that is well respected within the elven community.

Beast tamers are not rare within the elves, but they hold a position within the council as beast tamers are both good in defending the forest and also could bolster the elven army with the horde of beast friends.

And so in these months, Levia has learned of the human ways and was interested in the technology that the ship has. As an elf, she is a bit hesitant about the changes especially when it comes to humans. This is because the way humans change is by destroying something.

And the forest would always suffer from the brunt of those changes, and so the elves hated that. But she discovers that in this ship everything is different. When smiting they did not use those hot bellows and furnaces then chop trees for fuel. Instead, they use some weird ability and gadgets to turn things into something that they desired.

It took a lot of practice and concentration but it is far better than cutting down the forest for fuel. Then she saw many things that she has not seen before which she knew would also be beneficial to the lives of her elven family.

And so for the whole month, Levia learned a lot of things and did a lot of things that she would not have done when in the elven kingdom. She began to associate herself with the humans.

Tonight is a very special night for everyone, almost everyone in the flying ship has gone to town along with the many nobles and town's folks. Everyone is curious about this thing called movie premier.

Especially the word 'movie'… it is said that it is derived from the word moving pictures. So everyone was baffled and has the question 'how could pictures move?' So of course each of them is excited and wanted to learn more about it.

Right at this moment, the town has four large theaters build for this whole month. They are the Eastern, Southern, Western, and Northern theaters.

As of this moment, lots of people are lining up in front of the theaters waiting for the movie premiers. There are two types of seats, the orchestra, and the balcony. The orchestra is near the lower part while the balcony is the upper portion of the theater.

In normal plays, the balcony is where ordinary people would usually sit. However, in this type of theater, those who paid more would be seated near the center where the view is great.

This has confused a lot but since this 'movie' is new, they are all curious about it.

"What do you think this thing is?" one of the people outside the theater waiting asked.

"I don't know, I just grab a ticket and immediately both one. I and my family wanted to see such shows, plus the ordinary ticket is very cheap…"

"Yeah, but I heard many nobles have bought the expensive tickets… I wonder what the difference is."

"Of course the difference is the viewing and the sound…"

"What do you mean by that? They are seated at the back, and we are at the front?"

"…"

This type of discussion is all over the place while the people are waiting.

It is said that the premier would start at around 6 in the evening. And so everyone is looking at the sky waiting for the time.

Suddenly movements can be seen at the front.

"Hey, they are starting the admission… Sigh, we are far behind, could we still get in?"

"Don't worry, they said that today they are going to do 4 screenings, if you cannot get inside then you can go back tomorrow, right? Haha…"

"No way… then that would be unfair…"

"…"

30 minutes before the 1st screening of the very first movie the theaters have already begun letting everyone enter the theaters according to their tickets.

People are excited about what to see, but some nobles who have seen plays did not show the same reaction. They are anticipating something new but ever since the radio; their anticipation is not that much for entertainment.

But of course, they are still looking forward to seeing something new at this time.

Upon entering the dimly lit theater, everyone was a bit baffled. The theater is a bit huge with around 300 seats available for the orchestra and 100 for the balcony.

It did not take long before the whole seat was occupied.

'All the seats are occupied…' A voice from the handheld radio said and the one handling the tickets stopped.

"Sorry, the first premier is already done. Please look at your tickets for the time when you are able to enter…" the woman said while pointing at the large display on the side.

Everyone is already aware of that, but they could not help but be curious about what it is inside, so they just wanted to stay in the line.

Inside the theaters, the light suddenly dimmed down after the staff instructed everyone not to use any lights while watching the movie.

The staff in the theater then stood in one line on the side. In truth this is not part of their job, however, they themselves could not help but get curious about what to see, so they have already talked about this. Some would act like ushers, just to stay inside while others have all crammed in the entrance of the theater.

As the light dimmed, some felt a bit anxious but many are feeling the excitement.

The nobles on the other hand before entering have already bought something to chew on while watching the movie as they have heard on the radio.

Suddenly, the large black screen in front of everyone lights up.

  Gasping sounds could be heard as some people turn around trying to find where the light source is coming from. But then their attention came back to the screen in front of them.

Suddenly large floating text was displayed and it made them gasped once again.

"How… how could such large words just appear from nowhere?" the people said with amazement.

"Is this magic? How is this done?" some of the mages inside muttered to themselves.

But some just read the text and were a bit surprised.

"So this movie was produced by Fenghai Broadcasting Company… it seems that Madam Han has a big cooperation with the Mystique Shop." A noble whispered.

The people beside him nodded their heads.

Right at this moment, among the people, a person is looking at this scene with great expectation. His heart is currently thumping in excitement. Beside him are the same people with the same expectation as he does. This is because; this movie was created by his hand and the people beside him.

They are the film crew and staff of the movie. Although they have not seen the finished products and have done everything according to the direction, they are excited about the finished product of their hard work.

In a special theater, Shin Jiao and his group are also inside a smaller theater where only special people are seated. The main cast and the director of the film are also in there along with Jiwen Han.. Everyone is feeling excited.
