Bringing Culture to a Different World

Chapter 577: Chapter 573, Big News (4000)

Prince Kaos followed behind his mother with the feeling that he was heading to a battlefield where he would definitely die.

However, the moment Queen Yekana turned around, General Fred’s tall figure appeared at the Embassy of the iron country.

“My servant told me that you came to visit the embassy in person.”General Fred walked quickly to Queen Yekana and bowed.

“The Magic Net?”

Queen Yekana didn’t think that letters were so efficient. The servants in the embassy could inform General Fred of this information so quickly through the message in the magic net.

“General Fred, please sit inside first. I have many things to ask you.”Queen Yekana showed her proper courtesy to the old general, like the owner of the embassy, she invited General Fred to the reception room of the embassy.

Prince Kaos followed behind the two with complicated feelings. It was not good news for Prince Kaos that he did not need to go to the Hearthstone Tavern. General Fred’s return only brought forward his execution time.

“Your Highness Yekana, is there a problem with you looking for me in such a hurry?”

General Fred sat on the chair and looked at the Queen who was sitting opposite him, and Prince Kaos whose face was a little pale.

“I heard from the attendant of the embassy that you went out this time to register for a certain competition in a tavern? I’m a little curious about what kind of competition would attract you to participate,”Queen Yekana asked.

“His Majesty gave me a mission, and that is to obtain the leaves of the world tree as much as possible,”general Fred answered the empress without changing his expression. “The owner of the leaves happens to be a master of a tavern called Hearthstone Tavern. He organized a competition, and if he wins, he will be able to obtain a world tree’s crystal.”

“Using the World Tree’s Crystal as a bet? The scale of this competition shouldn’t be small.”

Empress Yekana was a powerful spellcaster. She did not have absolute power in the country of steel. She could not climb to this position just by relying on her appearance and luck.

Being proficient in magic and alchemy, she naturally understood that the world tree’s crystal was… what a precious alchemy material.

Apart from the use of the crystal to link to the magic net, it could be used to concoct medicine that could cure any disease or incurable disease.

This competition with crystals as rewards… would probably attract all the spellcasters in Nolan to participate.

“Your Highness Yekana, you’re thinking too much. The scale of this competition is very small. There are at most 40 participants, representing six countries,”general Fred said.

“Six countries? Will the Kingdom of frost participate?”Empress Yekana suddenly asked.

“The representatives of the Kingdom of frost are those old foxes of the Karlshilov family.”

General Fred instantly understood what Empress Yekana was referring to. When he said this, his voice was also laced with killing intent.

“Very good. The competition starts tomorrow, right?”This question from Empress Yekana was confirmed by General Fred. “Then, I’ll stay here for one more day. Also, General Fred, my servant revealed to me… During the time that Kaos was in Nolan, was he a little lazy?”

The final execution came.

Prince Kaos sat up straight, ready to choose death.

“Indeed, but that was six months ago. Kaos often went back and forth between the Luersk Magic Academy, but recently, in order to welcome the arrival of the sage trial, he stretched himself like a long sword.”

General Fred’s words made Prince Kaos widen his eyes in disbelief, but the expression on the general’s face remained unchanged.

Empress Yekana glanced back and forth at them before suddenly standing up from her seat.

“But this is not a reason for his defeat. I will consider finding a new mentor to supervise you.”

After Empress Yekana left these words, she bade farewell to General Fred and left the reception room.

Prince Kaos looked at his mother’s departing back and heaved a long sigh of relief. This feeling of narrowly escaping death was too exciting.

“Do you know the reason for your defeat?”General Fred asked.

“The biggest reason is that my magic reserves are far inferior to Sophia’s… Her affinity with the Thunder element is far beyond my expectations,”Prince Kaos said.

“The rest is that we should consider winning next time.”General Fred stood up and prepared to leave the guest room.

“Wait a minute, general… Have you chosen your candidates?”Prince Kaos said.

“You want to fight?”General Fred saw through Prince Kaos’thoughts.

“I don’t know… but please give me the qualification to be a substitute.”Prince Kaos still didn’t have the courage to play the magic network game in front of his mother.

But he wanted to defeat the Karsilov family, no matter in any field, as long as he won one round.

“I heard that Karshilov’s little girl will also participate in the battle. I will give you a position as a substitute. At that time, whether you want to go to the battlefield or not is up to you.”After saying that, General Fred immediately left.

..

Nolan, the Black Pigeon News Guild.

After returning from the tower of sages, Joshua came directly here. The reason was that the dark elves wanted to give their organization a ‘big clean-up’.

The building on Squirrel Street was no longer as messy as it was before. Instead, it had become a busy ‘Administrative Hall’.

Other than the humans, there was also a group of goblins and Orcs. Occasionally, there were even rarer races, such as… Lizard people.

“I’ve already told you not to submit any more articles about fights! Nolan and the other spellcasters are not interested in orc fights!”

“There was another fire in the alchemy workshop of the red-robed man yesterday. Can you write about it?”

“Yes! Why not… did you take a photo? Quick, show it to me.”

“Boss, this is the third time that the incident in the alchemy workshop of the red-robed man has been reported.”

“There’s nothing the spell casters can do even if they like to see it! Just change the fire to an explosion.”

Jose stood in the middle of the hall and watched the goblins and orcs running around the hall with a pile of white paper in their hands. There was a busy scene everywhere.

Most of the orcs and goblins had already put on their glasses and looked refined.

Although Joshua was the boss behind the scenes, this setting made him feel very out of place.

“Is your purge over?”Joshua glanced at the dark elves who walked out of the President’s office. A group of ‘unemployed people’who were carrying their belongings left with them.

There were a total of five people. Among them, there were two orcs and three humans. Judging from their clothes, they should belong to the higher-ups of this place.

“Desire will always make some people yearn for things that they shouldn’t have.”

The Dark Elves glared at the group of people. Their originally indignant expressions were instantly replaced by fear. Then, they ran out of this place.

“Aren’t you afraid of their revenge?”

Joshua looked at the five of them. From the looks of it, one of the orcs with a scar on his face did not seem like a good person.

“Have you forgotten what I used to do?”The Dark Elf made a hand gesture at Joshua, hinting at the consequences of his words.

“My boss is a cold-blooded killer. This kind of setting can be used to write a novel…”

As Hiri was resting in the Hearthstone Tavern, only Jose could withstand the big flag of ridicule.

“Let’s stop chatting for now. Jose, I’m very interested in the idea of the newspaper that you mentioned earlier.”The Dark Elf got straight to the point.

“After tasting the pleasure of writing a magazine, do you want to try the newspaper? That thing is more troublesome than you think.”

Joshua had always thought that newspapers would be of little value after receiving the daytime news from Nolan Television, but that was not the case in the eyes of the Dark Elves.

“The KELIA Chamber of Commerce can sell us all the printing workshops at the river of gears. With those workshops, we should be able to support the production of newspapers,”the Dark Elf said as she looked at Joshua carefully. “That is, if you are willing to pay for them.”

This was the first time that the Dark Elf felt uneasy in front of Joshua. In the past, she had always begged Joshua with the thought of ‘forget it if it doesn’t work’. But this time, she really wanted to buy those printing houses.

But the price of a single printing house was not a joke. If it was the black pigeon from the past, even if she sold the Dark Elf, she would not be able to afford it.

“Do you think money is something that I care about?”

As Nolan’s number one dog, Joshua was a true testament to the saying, “A problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.”

The Dark Elf was obviously slightly stunned by Joshua’s answer. Soon, she laughed self-deprecatingly.

“I still underestimated you, Your Highness.”

“But the problem is that just because I invested in you doesn’t mean that you can squander freely,”Joshua said to the Dark Elf in a serious tone. “Once you start working on newspapers and magazines, I absolutely won’t allow you to stop. Moreover, the interval between newspapers and magazines is much shorter than that of magazines. I don’t require you to produce daily newspapers, but at least once every three days. That’s a huge amount of work.”

“It seems that you have underestimated me too, your Highness.”The Dark Elf used his hand to lift up a strand of hair by his ear and showed Joshua the pointy ears that were unique to the elves. His long ears even trembled slightly.

“As long as I still exist in this world, the Black Pigeon News Guild will continue to exist.”

“Longevity seed? I’m a little envious.”

It was only then that Joshua remembered that the elves’lifespans were frighteningly long.

“I’ll take care of the printing factory. Do you need me to specify the layout and types of newspapers?”Joshua said.

“Of course, gagamo! Hurry up and get that pen and canvas over here!”The Dark Elves immediately sent a goblin to fetch tools for Joshua.

When Josh had proposed the concept of a magazine, he had also given the original layout of the Dark Elves’original magazine.

Josh wrote down the rough layout of a portion of the newspaper on a piece of white paper, as well as the issue of the choices on the layout.

“In short, this thing is a consumable, the kind that is thrown away after being used. Although the steel country’s magic-conducting printing machine was invented not long ago, that country also has similar newspapers. You can ask them what materials they use.”

After giving his opinion, Joshua asked the Dark Elf again.

“So when can the first publication of the Black Dove News Agency be released?”

“Tomorrow.”The Dark Elf gave a very positive answer to Joshua.

… ..

The Embassy of the steel nation.

Prince Kaos woke up from a beautiful dream and a nightmare today.

The beautiful dream was that he defeated the apprentice of the yellow-clothed man, Sophia. The nightmare was that he found out that he defeated Sophia with the Holy Spirit. After Queen Yekana found out about it, she was dragged to the guillotine by the furious queen.

It was really a strange dream!

“Mother…”

Prince Kaos put on his clothes and stood at the entrance of the embassy together with General Fred. Queen Yekana walked out of the embassy with her attendants.

Today, Empress Yekana was going to personally go to the Hearthstone Tavern to watch the match.

Prince Kaos followed Empress Yekana to the magic conductor car. Just as Prince Kaos opened the door of the magic conductor car, a shout suddenly came from across the street.

“Big News! The most powerful spell caster of the sage trial has been born! The chief apprentice of the scorching mage tower, Kaos, has defeated Sophia of the Thunder Mage Tower three times!”

At this moment, Prince Kaos’hand that touched the carriage door was already stiff, but Queen Yekana’s expression was the same as usual.

Prince Kaos immediately raised his head to look across the road and found that it was a young man. His clothes did not fit the clothes of the people of Nolan’s bustling district.

Queen Yekana’s attendant came directly to the opposite side of the road, stopped the young man who was walking toward the end of the street, and brought her to the front of the queen.

“What are you holding in Your Hand?”Empress Yekana looked at the young man who had a slightly fearful expression with a smile on her face.

“It’s… It’s the newspaper sir.”He mustered up his courage and said, “The new publication of the Black Pigeon News Agency. With this, you can understand the major events that have happened in Nolan in the past few days! It only costs three copper coins!”

Empress Yekana glanced at the attendant beside her, and he took out a silver coin and handed it to the young man.

“Give me a copy. Keep the change.”

“Thank you. You will definitely be lucky.”After thanking the empress, he handed over a newspaper and immediately ran away.

Empress Yekana also directly got into the magic carriage. Prince Kaos naturally followed her and sat in the back seat.

The empress directly unfolded the newspaper in the magic carriage. At this moment, Prince Kaos could clearly see a line of black typing on the cover of the newspaper. The content was probably that he had lost miserably to Sophia of the Tower of thunder.

Not to mention his mother, even Prince Karos himself was so angry that his breathing was a little hurried. Now, perhaps the whole of Nolan knew what had happened at the SAGE trial yesterday!

But his good self-cultivation allowed him to control his emotions.

The atmosphere in the magic conductor car was very terrifying. The surrounding air was so thick that Prince Karos could not stand it. Although Queen Yekana’s expression was the same as usual, the atmosphere was enough to show that she was not in a good mood.
