Bringing Culture to a Different World

Chapter 804: you know nothing about power



Currently, the surviving Duke of Blackwood was lying on the hospital bed. His condition was not optimistic at all. Elder Kuitoan was using some kind of magic to repair his damaged soul.

“Does he have any reaction to cats and mice now?”

It was the first time that Jose had seen such a serious case of the erosion of the soul by the gray fog. The Duke of Blackwood could only blink his eyes while lying on the hospital bed.

According to Carrie, this was the memory that she had kept repeating over the past seven days. She also sang to her father to bring him back from the brink of despair.

Apart from blinking his eyes, the Duke was no different from a vegetable.

“Yes!”

Carrie shouted excitedly when she heard the question, which was why she was so eager to find Jose.

“When I was on the Ice Dragon, I showed the first episode of ‘cats and mice’to my father. Some colorful lines appeared beside him… but they were quickly swallowed up by the gray,”said Carrie.

When the Duke of Blackwood enjoyed ‘cat and mouse’, it was the real reason why Carrie made up her mind to bring him to see Joshua first, instead of returning to Faroese.

“What lines?”

This time, it was Carrie’s turn to say words that Joshua couldn’t understand at all.

Carrie moved aside, and Joshua looked at the existence standing at the door.

It was a dark elf. Joshua remembered that she had been seeking death in the dungeon, but she had lived until now to wait for the update of cat and mouse.

“Hello, creator of cat and mouse, and the one who enslaved the High Elves.”

Her greeting immediately attracted the hatred of elder Kuitoan and put Joshua in a very awkward position.

“I’m sorry, I was wrong. I just didn’t expect that you high-level beings would choose… a demon to be the leader.”

The Dark Elf’s words were always sharp, even if she apologized sincerely.

“Ahem, my relationship with the high-level elves is only that of a collaborator. May I know your name?”

Joshua reached out his hand to the Dark Elf. She did not hold Joshua’s hand and directly said her name.

“Belica.”

“She can see through the emotional state of others through spiritual magic,”Hiri said from the side. “I’ve asked my mentor, but she seems to have never seen such a strange magic before.”

“Of course, humans are unable to grasp the secret arts of our race…”

Her dark purple pupils kept staring at Joshua. The emotion called ‘Curiosity’in her eyes was revealed, as if she wanted to skin and tear Joshua’s skin and tendons into pieces to study him.

“Are you sure that she can only see other people’s emotions?”Joshua whispered into Hili’s ear.

Hili nodded directly.

“You’re very special. You’re far more special than any demon I’ve ever met. I finally understand why that stubborn child, Enway, would submit to you.”

A light purple inscription appeared on her fingertips, and at the same time, gestured for Joshua to come forward.

“Enway? You Mean Thousand Faces?”

Joshua guessed the Dark Elf’s age and her identity in the tribe. She could actually call thousand faces a ‘child’. She was probably the same age as elder Kuitoan, or even… older.

“The name she used in the human world? I’m not interested in any of that right now.”

The Dark Elf’s fingertip tapped on the back of Joshua’s hand. After that, she walked to the window and looked out at the forgotten land.

“Envie told me that you have created countless miracles, but there are also lies. This place is filled with failure and darkness, but it has no effect on the human father’s illness.”

Her voice was filled with disappointment, and her evaluation of the forgotten land was undoubtedly mocking the High Elves.

After receiving the Purple Mark, Joshua opened his eyes again. The changes in the scenery were within his expectations.

Hiri explained the emotions represented by the various colors to Josh..

“This mark has the ability to digitize and visualize emotions… it seems that the state of the Duke of Blackwood is indeed terrible.”

Josh first took a look at Hiri. The pink lines on Hiri’s body were the majority. She seemed to have realized something and wanted to hide her emotional mark, unfortunately, the emotional imprint passed through Hiri’s hand and could not be blocked at all.

“This feeling of being spied on by others doesn’t feel good either.”

Joshua politely did not look too much at Carrie. Duke Blackwood’s entire body was covered in gray and black emotional imprints. Basically, he belonged to the type of person who ‘wholeheartedly sought death’, or worse, ‘a cripple who did not even want to commit suicide’.

“That girl actually expected this ruin to make people excited and happy. It seems that all these hopes have been dashed by now.”

The Dark Elf leaned against the window and muttered to herself.

From her point of view, the forgotten land was indeed very barren. There were not many high elves living here, let alone producing those emotional imprints that could make people happy.

“Because the Arthur Crow amusement park is dead and hasn’t been officially run yet.”

Jose also came to the window. All the shops below were closed, and no one could be seen on the road.

“Lori, what did your father like to do in the past?”Jose turned to ask Lori.

The flower of Faroese had come all the way here to ask for his help, so Jose decided to help as much as he could for the sake of his friend.

“Horse racing and gladiatorial games.”After thinking for a moment, Gloria mentioned a hobby that few Faroese had. “My father has never been interested in drama. I heard from my mother that he liked to hunt when he was young, but he hasn’t done that since he was saved by the Blackwood Elves.”

“To put it simply, is he a person who likes excitement?”

Josh turned his head and looked at one of the most magnificent landmarks in the entire amusement park. It was a roller coaster that had just been completed three days ago and had undergone safety tests.

Time was too short for Josh to even give it a name.

“Does your father have a sense of the outside world now?”

Josh didn’t know if letting a vegetable ride on a roller coaster was torture, but if Gloria was willing to let his father try it..

“Yes…”Carrie said to Joshua with certainty.

“Since it’s an alpha test, of course all the tests have to be done once. Miss Belica… Do you want to try it too?”

Joshua could see the emotional imprint on the Dark Elf’s body. Her condition was not much better than the Dark Wood Duke’s. It was the emotional imprint that represented despair that occupied the majority of her body.

“It doesn’t matter.”

The Dark Elf did not even ask Joshua what he wanted to try and agreed.
