Chapter 655: before the premiere ( 3: )
Chapter 655: before the premiere ( 3: )
This premiere was unofficial, and only invited some acquaintances.
After Josh posted the trailer for “The shining”on the Spellcaster Forum, Josh received a lot of inquiries from acquaintances about the premiere on his text message.
The visitor who surprised Josh the most was the yellow-clothed man.
It was not until the yellow-clothed person brought his chief apprentice, Sophia, to the White Thorn Theatre that Joshua realized that the sage was not interested in movies. He was just a little troubled by his own student’s urging.
This girl named Sophia Karshilov was probably Nolan’s most promising new spellcaster. She usually stood at the top of the younger generation, but now she came to the private hall of the White Thorn Theatre, she exposed her identity as a ‘Star Chaser’!
“That’s Miss Tyreen. Mentor, quickly give me the autograph book!”She kept urging the yellow-clothed person. She was the only one in Nolan who dared to order the yellow-clothed person like that.
The yellow-clothed person’s expression was stiff, and he looked very unhappy. However, he still took out a small book and gave it to Sophia.
Sophia took her autograph book and ran to Tyreen’s side. Her eyes were full of excitement, and she handed the autograph book to Tyreen in panic.
After taking the autograph book, Tyreen Glanced at Josh who was standing next to her.
This frost elf seemed to be used to Josh’s presence. She would ask Josh’s opinion before doing anything.
“Sign it, but I suggest you practice your signature,”said Joshua.
“HMM… how should I practice my signature?”
Tyreen took the notebook from Sophia and hesitated for a moment when she picked up the pen.
“It has your characteristics. People can recognize that it’s your signature at a glance. Let Me Think… You can write it in elven words!”
Joshua’s suggestion made Tyreen look nostalgic.
Tyreen opened the autograph book that Sophie handed over and wrote her name in Frost Elven words.
“Elven words…”
Sophie took the autograph book and looked at the signature that Tyreen had written on it. She calmed herself down and handed the autograph book to Joshua who was next to her.
“Do I Want One Too?”
Joshua did not expect that someone would come to him to sign autographs.
“I’ve seen the list of the creators behind Warcraft. You’re one of the creators of that game, aren’t you?”
“The Creator…”
Joshua looked at Sophia’s expectant eyes and did not say anything that would disappoint her. Joshua took the autograph book and wrote his name on it.
Sophia’s admiration for him was the admiration of a player for the game’s creator. This made Joshua very… happy.
After she received Joshua’s autograph, she returned to the yellow-clothed man’s side.
“Sophia…”
The yellow-clothed man wanted to remind her to pay attention to her image.
“Teacher, I want to learn Elvish.”Sophia once again made a request that gave the yellow-clothed man a headache.
The principal apprentice of the man in yellow had been wanting to learn too many extra-curricular lessons recently. Among them, illusion magic was the first to be taught. There was also music, playing, and now, she even wanted to learn elven language.
Just as the man in yellow was about to make up his mind and persuade her to focus on the Thunder system’s magic, Sophia shouted ‘gloria’and ran to the other side of the hall.
“It’ll be better if she sees more.”
Jose walked to the yellow-clothed man’s side and comforted him.
The yellow-clothed man only snorted coldly and didn’t bother with Jose anymore.
The star-chaser, Sophia, was running around the entire hall. Seeing her excited look, Jose had more and more thoughts of holding a Grammy or Oscar award ceremony.
“Mr. Joshua… about this movie.”
Mrs. Caesar brought her daughter, Gloria, to Joshua. Even though Joshua had told her that this was not a gathering of nobles, she still came dressed up.
“I don’t think anyone here is willing to listen to the spoilers. The only advice I can give you is to keep an acquaintance by your side when you watch it.”
Jose’s reminder made Mrs. Caesar stop asking about the details of the movie. She gently nudged Gloria, who was next to her, and then found an excuse to go directly to Sir White Thorn to ask about the situation.
“Why isn’t Hili by your side?”
Gloria carefully glanced at her mother and lowered her voice to ask Jose.
“She’s catching up on her summer homework, so she’s waiting in the screening room.”
Josh still felt a little guilty about Healy. The illusion magic that Healy had used during the filming of “The shining”had helped a lot recently, but the price was that the progress of the book that the purple-clothed man had made her study was still stagnant.
“Homework…”
It was rare for Carrie to get away from the heavy filming work. She didn’t want to hear another word that made her even more afraid.
“There’s one more thing. Fuya has been logging into ‘My World’recently and hasn’t spoken much. Recently, I feel that she’s a little strange. I think you’re her older brother… you should know something,”Carrie asked.
“Fuya hasn’t been in a good mood recently.”After Joshua learned from the dark elves that Fuya was actually frightened by the script for ‘The Shining,’he had also comforted her through text messages.
However, the effect was not ideal. She did not reply to Joshua at all. She was the type of person who could not be coaxed no matter how hard she tried.
“I’ll find some time to return to the demon world, but it’s about time to start the premiere now.”
Joshua glanced at the crowd gathered in the hall. All the people that Joshua had invited and those who took the initiative to come had already arrived.
Most of them were actors from the White Briar troupe. The other part were members of Joshua’s guild, such as Cheryl, who was the author, and the two nuns from Denisa.
The arrival of Ino and Zenas had directly ignited the heart of the Star Chaser, Sophia. She was so excited that she could not speak properly just by looking at Zenas and Ino standing together.
On the other hand, Hiri’s sister, Herland, and her friend, Sansa, appeared to be much more reserved. Herland waved at Joshua as a greeting.
Herland’s recent work at Nolan’s savings office had successfully lifted her out of poverty.
“Fuya… told me not to come and watch this movie.”
Gloria glanced at the warm family hanging on the poster in the hall, and a sense of unease lingered in her heart.
“Do you want to leave now?”
“The answer is no, Mr. Joshua.”
Carrie shook her head slightly when she felt her mother’s gaze. Then, under the call of Joshua, nearly a hundred people who attended the premiere walked into the screening hall.
Hiri had already occupied the best seat in the screening hall, but she was still reading a thick magic book.
Herland stood there for a long time, stunned by her hardworking look.
“Herland, hurry up… There are many people watching the seat next to Enoch,”Sansa urged.
“This is the first time I’ve seen Hiri reading a magic book. She used to throw it at people when she was young,”Herland muttered to himself.
Herland’s muttering was clearly heard by Jose. This was probably the growth of a naughty child when he was young.
Not only had he grown up… but he had also reached the age where he could marry.
Jose walked to the seat next to Hiri and sat down. Hiri closed the magic book in his hand at the same time.
Before Hiri could speak, the seat on the other side of Jose was occupied by Gloria.
‘forgive me… This is not my intention.’
Gloria noticed Hiri’s gaze and used her lips to convey the meaning. At the same time, she pointed at Mrs. Caesar who was sitting next to her.
It shouldn’t be a problem just to sit next to her… and the lights in the theater were gradually dimming.
Hiri placed the thick magic book in his hand on his thigh and looked at the screen that was gradually glowing.
