MTL - The Barrage Said, I Am the Final Villain In the Game-Chapter 212 the first knight on my table, will it be him
Chapter 212 Will the first knight on my table be him?
The next morning, Corinna packed up and walked out of the guest room, and walked towards the gate of the manor amidst the greetings of the servants.
Her footsteps were fast, and she arrived in a short time.
The reason why Corinna appeared here at this time was because she was preparing to welcome the arrival of the bard with Mira.
Miss Mira's work efficiency was very fast, and in just one night, she persuaded the Marquis to invite the bard to perform.
Actually, at the beginning, Corinna didn't think Mira could convince the Marquis.
As an aristocrat with actual territory, power and wealth at the top level, he has probably seen all kinds of performances, and groups like bards are never known for performances.
In her prediction, the Marquis would very likely reject this matter on the grounds of being "boring".
But the result of the matter surprised her.
"Did you really do it?"
Looking at the women walking towards her, Corinna shook her head, putting away her emotions and showing a smile.
"Good morning, Miss Mira."
"Good morning, Corinna."
Mira smiled gently, and raised her palm unconsciously, but in the end she only held the girl's arm.
"Let's go, let's meet that magical bard together."
They came to the gate, waited for a while, and saw the carriage with Traore's family emblem on it slowly coming from a distance.
The carriage stopped in front of the gate of the manor, and the bard named Alyssa jumped out of the carriage lightly, and bowed generously when he saw the people who came to greet him.
"Good morning, both of you, it is a great honor to be invited to perform for you."
"good morning."
Mira responded with a smile to the poet's compliment, which seemed to be slightly flattering.
But just as she was about to continue the next sentence, she suddenly noticed that the girl next to her had a strange expression on her face.
At this time, Corinna was staring at Alyssa intently. To be precise, she was staring at her neck.
There, a blue gemstone necklace is shining brightly in the sun.
This string of gemstone necklaces looks familiar to her.
Because that was the necklace that the strange man "snatched" from her yesterday.
"Korinna?" Mira didn't notice where the girl's eyes fell, and only asked with a little concern, "What's wrong with you? Is there something uncomfortable?"
Korinna came back to her senses, smiled and shook her head: "No, I just thought of something interesting."
Although it was a coincidence that the necklace she saw yesterday appeared on the person in front of her, she didn't want to search for it.
She doesn't have that much curiosity, and it's a very stupid thing to focus on meaningless strangers.
Seeing that Corinna didn't want to say more, Mila smiled, and didn't ask any more questions, and continued talking to Alyssa instead.
Just inviting the bard over today doesn’t mean she has to perform on stage today.
For most nobles, the sense of ritual is a very important thing, so preparation in advance is a very important thing.
"Miss Alyssa." Mira beckoned and led Alyssa to walk on the manor's tidy stone path, and said softly, "I put the scheduled performance time in three days, what do you think?"
"No problem." Alyssa agreed, "No matter what happens, I will definitely go to the appointment on time."
"So. I heard that what you are best at is telling some stories about...historical ethics. Is the program you prepared, your specialty program?"
"Hmm can I?"
Mira pondered for a moment and said, "I think it might not be appropriate."
"Of course, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with your story, it's just that I invite you to perform to convince our master with the reason of 'children want', and most of the children in our family are teenagers. I don’t want teenagers and girls around the age of 10 to be infected with some novelty-hunting ideas because of these stories.”
Traore is a family that obeys noble etiquette, and the education of the children is very strict.
Although they don't know what they will look like in the future, at least for now, they can't get in touch with knowledge other than "justice"—at least not through her.
"Is that so?" Alyssa didn't hesitate at Mira's request, and said directly, "Then change it."
"Thank you for your understanding." Mira smiled gently, "Then, what are you preparing for?"
"Forehead"
Alyssa scratched her head: "Well, I may have to go back before I can reply to you."
"Do you need to think about it? That's right, it's really embarrassing for you to give up what you are best at and replace it with another aspect that you are not very good at."
"No, no, no." Alyssa waved her hands again and again, "Before that... what kind of subject do you think they will like?"
"What kind of subject matter."
Mira thought for a while, and looked at Corinna who had been silent beside her.
"Korinna, what kind of stories do you like to hear?"
Korinna raised her head, pondered for a while, and said with some embarrassment: "Actually, I was very interested in Miss Alyssa's performance yesterday."
"Huh?" Alyssa looked surprised, "Were you there yesterday?"
"Yes." Corinna nodded, "I found the story about the 'Knights of the Round Table' in your story yesterday very interesting."
"Yeah." Alyssa nodded in agreement, "My...friend once mentioned to me that for human beings, the most exciting thing is to cross the treaty that you set, like a noble and pure knight who violated morality. Such rebellious things have always been applauded."
"." Corinna's face twitched, seeing Mira looking at her a little weirdly, she hurriedly explained: "No, no, what I said is that my 'round table spirit' to them is very impressive. Contemplate and learn from."
"Ah, this?" Alyssa's face became a little embarrassed.
"Let's talk." Corinna asked curiously again, "Does this so-called 'Lionheart King' really exist?"
"I seem to have never heard of such a king, nor have I seen such a system."
Corina would like to know similar details.
She originally had a similar idea. If she can learn from this failure, she may be able to fill in the gaps and make her team more perfect—at least not to be stolen.
"This"
Facing Corinna's question, Alyssa hesitated for a while, and finally sighed.
"Miss, to tell you the truth, these stories are not created by me."
“What I am good at is deduction and telling, but creation is not what I am good at.”
She looked at Mira, who was watching the two communicate with each other with a smile on the side.
“The stories I tell all come from my friend, and every word comes from his pen.”
"That's why I said I can't answer you until I go back."
"Only he can come up with a story that satisfies you, not me as a pure performer."
Mira didn't comment on this.
It is not surprising that a performer has a team. People who can create and perform at the same time are called geniuses.
Alyssa is clearly not, or she wouldn't have heard her name recently.
On the other side, Corinna quietly narrowed her eyes when she heard what Alyssa said.
When talking about "friends", Alyssa's hand gently stroked the necklace on her chest without her even realizing it.
Is that man yesterday the "friend" that Alyssa called?
Originally, when she saw Alyssa’s necklace, she took it for granted that it was a prodigal son who used a jewel necklace to seduce a beautiful girl
No, why did my thoughts go to that person again?
Korinna shook her head, and was about to shake off the face of the young man who had inexplicably entered her mind, when Miss Mira spoke out.
"In this case, you can also bring your friend here tomorrow." She smiled slightly, "In this way, we can not only communicate about the performance, but also satisfy Corinna's curiosity—as a creation Or, he should have a lot of experience with the table knight system?"
"Absolutely." Alyssa said with certainty.
"That's good."
Mira looked at Corinna with a smile: "Korinna, what do you think?"
"I have no opinion."
Corinna agreed.
"Then, let's do this first." Mira said, "I still have some things to deal with later, Miss Alyssa, you can supervise the construction of the stage here, and suggest some details that you think would be better, Colleen Na"
"I will take care of myself." Corinna said first.
How well-behaved. Mira praised in her heart, and after ordering the servants to entertain the guests, she went to deal with her own affairs.
She wasn't worried that these two people would fall into an awkward atmosphere after she left.
Corinna was not a taciturn child, on the contrary, she was very good at leading topics, and as a bard, Alyssa's most powerful mouth should be her mouth.
Both of them are women, and they are both well-informed (she thinks), so there should be no shortage of topics.
In fact, Mira's guess was correct, and the two of them did have a lot to say.
It's just the direction of the topic, which is somewhat unexpected to her.
Korinna sat on a bench in the garden, raised her head and let the warm winter sun lift up her pale golden hair, and kissed her cheek softly.
After a while, she made a soft sound.
"What kind of person is your friend?"
She really wanted to know what kind of person could create such a story and a system that fit her mind so well.
Actually, she shouldn't have asked, because no matter what that person said, he was destined to be a stranger to her.
It's just that the "teasing" at the first acquaintance, the inadvertent knowing, and the ubiquitous existence that was never mentioned but seemed to be everywhere, made the sponge named "curiosity" in her heart more and more inflated.
When reaching a certain level, the desire to understand the other party in detail becomes difficult to suppress and gushes out.
Hearing Corinna's question, Alyssa looked at her, her eyes suddenly became a little complicated.
She was really, really curious.
Obviously, I have never seen it once.
After a while, she sighed: "He is a very powerful person."
Very powerful?
seems to be the most obvious comment, but sometimes the simplest is also the most obvious.
Corinna can judge through the other party's emotional performance that she wants to give various examples to praise her friend's excellence, but when there are too many examples and they are all very good, Alyssa will suddenly be overwhelmed. Losing the ability to choose, the mountain of examples directly destroyed her choice, and finally came up with only one sentence, "great."
In Alyssa's opinion, that person is so powerful that there is no way to describe it in words.
After thinking for a while, Corinna asked: "When you say 'powerful', do you mean 'ability'? What about ability?"
"For example, character or person?"
"Personality." Alyssa was a little confused now, "His personality, in my opinion, should be excellent, but in the eyes of others, it should be bad."
"It's normal for a thousand people to see a thousand copies of Tremha."
"That's right, but he never cared about other people's eyes, and he was always very resolute about the path he chose." Alyssa looked at the girl's pretty face covered with a light golden veil, and said softly, "From my He has been like that in the months of travel that I have known him to now."
"You guys, have you known each other for such a short time?" Corinna was a little surprised.
Seeing Alyssa's posture like an old friend, she thought that the two had known each other for at least a year.
It turned out that you just met them not long ago?
"Yes, it's only been a few months." Alyssa smiled and said, "I was picked up by him on the road and brought back. He said at the time that he was a little short of money and needed my help."
“Then I became a bard, using the show to provide him with money and continue to enable him to find his ‘what he wanted’.”
"What is hoped for?" Another doubt popped up in Corinna's mind, "What is that?"
"I didn't know before." Alyssa sighed again, "I used to think that what he wanted might be inexhaustible money, or the stunning beauty in the world that is not available in the ugly village, or the supreme gem authority, but He used his journey along the way to tell me, no."
"I have seen him come up with three stories in one night, including The Lionheart, each of which has been a huge success, which is enough to bring him untold wealth; Also because of the performance, he was able to get acquainted with ladies from various families, and during the contact, even the princess was fascinated by him; as for power, he has never come into contact with it in front of my eyes."
"He is indeed very powerful." Listening to Alyssa's words, even Corinna couldn't help admiring.
Whether these deeds are true or not, Alyssa’s sincere narration has been able to show that the person can resist temptation, has firm ideals and beliefs, and is capable enough.
This can indeed be called "awesome."
If such a person can become his helper, it will definitely be a big help.
After a pause, Corinna said again: "You just said that you didn't know before, so now"
Alyssa smiled and said, "Now I do know—that's what he told me himself a while ago."
"At that time, I was excited about a perfect performance and wanted to invite him on stage to thank him, but he refused and said to me: 'You shine on the stage, your The talent is shining, but that's where you are — and while I'm still looking, I'm sure the stage isn't mine.'"
"At this moment, I understood that the purpose of his travels and what he was looking for was his 'position' in this world."
Corinna was a little dazed when she heard it: "He is really a very special person."
"Aqiu—"
The girl rubbed her nose and suddenly touched something.
She spread out her palm and saw that it was a strange white hair.
Clean and flawless, as if transparent.
"Where did it come from?"
Shaking her head, Corinna threw the white hair away.
The line of sight gradually drifted away with the white hair, and the girl's mind gradually became empty, and just when it was about to be empty, a torrent suddenly flashed in it.
"He's looking for, location"
For some reason, she had a feeling somewhere.
This person seems to be the person she needs to look for.
The girl looked at the seat beside her.
For reasons of etiquette, Alyssa sat a considerable distance away from her, and there was room for another person here.
"The first 'knight' on my table, will it be him?"
Corinna smiled lightly and closed her eyes.
It was at this moment that she didn't realize that the floating white cat really became transparent under the sunlight.
Then, like a disposable magic item that was exhausted, it quietly shattered and was drowned in the wind.
