Chapter 163

On the third day since the Voice of Norland began broadcasting to the public.

“The powerful Genie was released from the magical lamp. After being given freedom, the Genie promised Aladdin three wishes...”

The frost elf Tylene was sitting inside the Noiseless Room. She was holding a draft written by Joshua and reading it.

As usual, Joshua and Ciri were standing outside the Noiseless Room and quietly listening to Tylene’s story telling through the magic network.

After three days of experience, Tylene had gradually grown skilled with broadcasting.

Although she was far from a professional, she had a very pleasant-sounding voice. Perhaps it was a change brought upon by the World Tree, Joshua would always feel very relaxed when talking with her.

“Does that magical lamp really exist?”

Listening to the story Tylene was narrating on the Voice of Norland, Ciri couldn’t help herself from turning to ask the person who gave the story to Tylene, Joshua.

“I am only passing on this story. I also do not know if the magical lamp really exists or not.”

Joshua did not wish for the Voice of Norland’s programs to be too monotonous. Thus, apart from singing lullabies at night, the frost elf will also tell her audiences stories and narrate biographies a couple days a week. Of course, Joshua was the person providing all the reading materials for her.

It was not realistic to have the frost elf be the sole broadcaster. Because of that, Joshua was pondering on whether to find some fresh talents.

“From the manuscripts you’ve written, you seemed to use the prop of ‘wish fulfilment magic’ a lot. There’s that cup fought over by seven people, a blue-colored two-headed magic puppet and seven balls that could summon a dragon. Are you telling me all of those are fake?”

Ciri extended her fingers and counted at the various stories with ‘wish fulfilment magic.’ As Joshua’s number one fan, she would always be the first person to read Joshua’s new works.

“They’re all fake. If there’s really a wish fulfilment magic, it wouldn’t be a legendary magic to the mages.”

Joshua swiped the magic network interface with his finger. He had especially opened up a new sub-forum for the Voice of Norland. He did all that so that he could attract more people to check out and follow the Voice of Norland.

In a short three days, the mage forum had over forty-seven thousand users. Although that was still a small number in a city like Norland, it has only been three days.

Currently, the amount of listeners to the Voice of Norland has increased to roughly eight thousand. It would appear that Tylene’s story telling of ‘Aladdin and the Magic Lamp’ had attracted a lot of mages that wanted to explore this world’s unknown.

‘An ancient country covered by yellow sand, it should be the Great Analok Desert to the southernmost region of the world. Was there really a country in that land of death?’ Poster: Ash-colored Owl

‘Everyone, what would you all wish for if you gain possession of the magic lamp? I would wish for beautiful girls to fall for me.’ Poster: One-eyed Old Nak

‘Enormous size and blue all over. The lower half resembles that of a specter. Based on the description, that Genie is most definitely some sort of ghost goblin!’ Poster: Skeleton Finger

Joshua was skimming through the posts that appeared on ‘Norland Special District.’ It appeared that these mages did not take Tylene’s stories to be a ‘fairy tale’ at all. Instead, they were viewing it as some sort of biography, something that had truly happened in the past.

Joshua didn’t know if this outcome was good or bad. When Tylene was about to talk about Aladdin using the lamp to make his wish, she suddenly stopped. Seeing that, Joshua immediately closed his magic network interface and looked to Tylene in the Noiseless Room.

Soon, Joshua’s eyes shifted to the table, to the World Tree Tylene was using as her ‘microphone.’

The World Tree was emitting a faint green glimmer.

Even though there were rune inscriptions on the glass surrounding the room, Joshua could still sense the flourishing vitality emitted by the World Tree.

The seedling was starting to grow. The World Tree grew from the length of an index finger to an entire palm.

Three tender green leaves bloomed like flowers.

The World Tree’s speed of growth brought upon so much excitement to the frost elf, so much that she wanted to cheer. But, she managed to contain her excitement with her self-control. She picked back up the script and continued reading the story of ‘Aladdin.’

“Is this what you meant by ‘produce ten thousand leaves per acre?’”

It was Ciri’s first time seeing the growth of the World Tree. Logically, plants should grow little by little. But, the World Tree does not abide by that rule.

“Perhaps... the magic network caused some sort of change to it.”

Joshua had hoped to be able to grow the World Tree into some sort of artificial intelligence. Should that happen, it would be able to correct bugs in his programs.

But, the truth had revealed that the World Tree was not at all interested in runes compilation.

Tylene was still continuing with the story of ‘Aladdin and the Magic Lamp.’ Suddenly, an owl flew in from the window.

The magic network was currently only in its initial stage of publicization. The majority of the residents of Norland, better yet the entire world, were still used to using birds to exchange letters as a means of communication.

The owl skillfully dropped a letter in Joshua’s hand. Then, it flew out the window and left.

Joshua took a glance at the letter’s wax seal. It was a pitch-black ancient tree.

It was a letter from the Archduchess of Blackwood. Ever since the filming for ‘Léon: The Demon’ was completed, this Archduchess seemed to have directly regarded Joshua as a ‘trusted aide.’

She kept hoping to be able to cooperate with him again.

But, Joshua was in no rush to create another movie. After all, ‘Léon: The Demon’ has only been screening in the Weissenasche Theater for four days. It was still at the height of its popularity.

Furthermore, he knew that Madam Schroder’s ambitions would not be limited to Norland. She will soon bring that movie out of Norland and screen it in the entire world’s theaters.

The letter she sent Joshua was a farewell letter.

The transnational teleportation formation opened in Norland will close tomorrow. Once that happens, it would be very difficult and troublesome for her to return to Farucci.

Apart from bidding farewell, she also wrote in her letter that she hoped to be able to see Joshua again. Furthermore, she wanted to ask him about the reason why her daughter became so ‘strange’ recently.

It would appear that Madam Schroder had learned Gallolei’s recently behavior of being completely engrossed in the Mage Forum’s camp.

Joshua wondered if she would act like the parents of earth and attempt to get rid of her daughter’s internet addiction problem.

A ‘kindle’ rune appeared on Joshua’s hand. That was one of the simplest magic in the Flameweaving system of magic.

In a short few seconds, the letter was burned to ash.

“We’ll be proceeding to Madam Schroder’s Mansion to enjoy a meal once Tylene finished her story.”

Since someone offered to treat him to a meal, Joshua would naturally not show any modesty. This was especially so when it’s a noble, people renowned for their extravagance.
