A strange world

Chapter 453 Chapter 110. Imperial Capital Premiere

Before visiting the guests, Annan went back to the manor and brought Alice and Martin over.

The premiere of "Annan Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" certainly requires the appearance of the protagonist.

"Tribulus, this is Alice, Martin." Annan introduced, "Alice, Martin, this is Tribulus."

"I know both of them. They are actors like you, right?"

The ghost girl who has haunted the opera house for decades does not confuse reality with magical images.

"Hello." Alice responded calmly, then looked at Annan.

"Tribulus is the first employee of our Moonlight Opera House!" Annan felt that there was something hidden in her eyes.

Annan was a little surprised. He thought Martin would be frightened by Tribulus. It seems that the experience in Xingyue Bay has made Martin grow——

"Let's go and send out invitations now."

As soon as he got into the carriage, Martin pointed at the caltrops and screamed: "Cousin! There is something dirty!"

The ghost girl narrowed her eyes: "Boss, is he an enemy?"

"No...but you can play pranks depending on your mood."

Tribulus floated to the car window and quietly stared at the imperial capital in the distance: "Is this the Montreal Mountain?"

"You haven't come out yet?"

"My father took me to see it once when I was very young...but I forgot a lot about it. Later I became the lady's maid."

"If you want to come out, just tell me. Don't sneak out in private."

Annan was worried that the theater's first employee would be purified by a passing priest: "Remember to tell Selita Dana too."

"Selita Dana?" Alice tilted her head.

"This is a story full of regrets..."

The carriage with the sound of narration gradually drove towards the imperial capital.

The first guest to invite is of course Mr. Reis.

Mr. Reis promised that he would take the family with him, and by the way told Isabel that Annan had not seen her since the last separation.

And Mr. Reis had a sad face. He said with a sad face that he was blinded by Annan's interests when he was there. He had launched many new accessories in the past few days but the sales were not good.

Annan had no choice but to tell him that if any goods were unsalable, tie them to love.

Annan thought about proposing something like "endorsement". With the popularity of "The Fall of the Mage Tower" in the empire, even if a normal jewelry store sells dozens of pieces, the sales volume will only be a fraction - but Annan doesn't want to be so frivolous.

He is Annan Reeves, the past King of the North and the current Lord of the Floating City. It is not worth it to show his face for a jewelry that can earn up to several thousand gold coins.

After bidding farewell to the thoughtful Reis, he just got into the carriage. Alice beside him looked sideways: "You must not believe in love."

"I don't know." But Annan felt that it was strange for Alice to talk about love to him. She seemed like the kind of female mage who would marry a magician.

The second "bit", or "group" target is the Royal Academy of Magic in Montreal.

Annan met them because of the Empire Contest. Looking back on the situation when he said goodbye, he probably wouldn't be kicked out by them...

Indeed, Annan did not receive a warm welcome, but he was not kicked out either. After successfully sending out the invitation letter and greeting the mages he had fought with, Annan came to the Knights' headquarters again.

Of course Olin and her friends were included, and they told her the results of the Moonlight Opera House. As a result, the knight in front of the door said that Olin was not there.

"Did she ask you to say that or was she really not here?"

"You are questioning the knight's loyalty!" the knight expressed indignation.

Annan had no choice but to come back and first visit the first name on the notebook: Mrs. Ollie Holland.

Her husband was a fur trader who owned a single-family home in Uptown. Leaving the ghost girl and the silly cat in the car, Annan took Alice and Martin and knocked on the fence gate of the yard.

A man in pajamas came out. He recognized Annan before he spoke and greeted him warmly - with the body odor that hit his face.

Not covering her nose was Annan's best restraint. No wonder his wife couldn't smell the aroma of wine at banquets.

"What does this smell like..."

As soon as he entered the house, Martin's muttering came from behind, and Annan's heart skipped a beat.

As a result, Holland seemed unaware of his body odor and showed off the furs covering the walls: "These are my treasured furs, and there is a whole piece of Yalong skin in the basement..."

Annan breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's a fox!"

Annan's heart started to rise again when he saw Martin throwing himself in front of a fiery red fox skin: "Uncle Huolin cut down a tree and killed a fox before! Just like it!"

"Oh, what a pity. Such a good fur costs at least fifty gold coins."

Just in case Martin said anything else, Annan explained his purpose.

Holander readily agreed and asked Annan to have some desserts while he went to call his wife.

"Cousin, I haven't eaten anything except apple pie today..." Martin looked at Annan pitifully.

"How many apple pies did you eat?"

"Five and a half."

But Annan stayed and chatted with the Hollanders while eating in the restaurant.

Holland was talking about his fur, and Annan was talking about his opera house. At a certain moment, Annan felt that his trouser legs were being rubbed. He lowered his head and saw Mrs. Ollie Holland's feet stretching out from under the table.

Annan raised his head and met Martin who was looking down.

Martin suddenly stood up.

"Martin, what are you going to do!"

"Cousin, I want to get some jam..."

"……I'll help you."

Annan stood up and shook off his legs, and did not sit back down: "Mr. Holland, I think it's time for us to leave. There are still many invitations that have not been sent."

After escaping from the Holland House, Annan and Alice agreed not to take Martin with them.

They were busy until the evening, and they finally sent out the invitations on the list.

After sending the ghost girl back to the opera house, Annan and the others returned to Montreal Manor.

In the early morning of a new day, Annan brought the businessman Olmedo had given him to the Moonlight Opera House.

Her name is Pamela, a rich woman who looks like a small Aunt Susan, with a smile that makes people feel close to her.

Annan first asked her if she was brave and if she was afraid of ghosts, and then called Tribulus out to meet her, and told her about the past of the Moonlight Opera House again - when Tribulus whispered that the lady was eavesdropping, Annan emphatically described Selita Dana's bravery and fearlessness.

Pamela's attitude also satisfied Annan. She shed tears of sympathy and assured Annan that she would treat them as her own relatives.

The premiere was at noon. As time went by, carriages stopped outside the opera house and disembarked nobles and wealthy people.

Some of them curiously looked at the ruins of Solendor across the street, and some of them hurried into the theater with their heads lowered. The attitude is interesting. There are also some acquaintances, including Isabel, who has never shown up, and Olin, who has been late.

No matter what, at least the premiere was packed with people.
