Lorraine Hill came to this cold drink shop again after being invited by Mrs. Philia last time.
Pushing open the door of the 'Flower Beach', there were still several maids standing there.
"Welcome" a maid came forward to welcome you.
"Hello, is Mrs. Philia here?" Lorraine Hill asked.
"Yes, please come with me. The teacher has given instructions."
In the dance room on the second floor of the Flower Beach, Mrs. Philia was instructing some girls on posture and rhythm. She held an exquisite silk folding fan and explained the key points to these students in detail.
After a while, she ended her guidance.
"Are you a little curious?" Mrs. Philia looked at Lorraine Hill standing beside her for a long time.
"Well, they must be the maids in the store. One of them guided me in at the door yesterday."
"Yes, but maids are just their occasional job."
Mrs. Philia took Lorraine Hill up to the third floor.
"Actually, they are all students who study music, dance and acting with me, and they often go to the theater to participate in performances. I am not short of money, so I let them work in the store to pay for their tuition."
That's amazing, Lorraine Hill thought to himself. Most of these girls have good family backgrounds, beautiful looks, and well-maintained skin. Being used as shop assistants is a huge blow to other colleagues. No wonder the business is so good.
"Do you also want to try being a maid for a while?" Lady Philia said teasingly.
"No." Lorraine Hill shook his head cutely, he didn't want to go, it was too shameful.
"It fits your personality very well."
"How's it going? Have you considered what you said yesterday?"
"Well, I've almost thought about it, but I still have some questions." Lorraine Hill sat on the sofa opposite Mrs. Philia.
"After all, I have never performed on stage. Isn't this a bit too hasty? After all, the whole city is watching the festival together."
Lorraine Hill was a little nervous when he mentioned the word "whole city".
"Are you afraid that you will make mistakes because you are nervous?" Mrs. Philia saw her uneasiness.
"Um."
"Don't worry about this kind of thing, little Lacey." Mrs. Philia blinked.
"You only need to stand on the stage and say that this is your first time on stage and you are quite nervous. If there are any mistakes, please forgive me. That's it."
"Is this... enough?" Lorraine Hill was a little unconvinced, wondering if this was too arrogant and willful.
"Well, because I can't bear to talk about you, even I, a former singer, will fall in love with you when I see you, not to mention ordinary people who don't have much resistance."
"I'm afraid you don't know how lethal your appearance is."
Mrs. Philia stared at the slightly reserved girl in front of her. Every move she made revealed a girlish youthfulness, innocence and cuteness, which made people feel pity for her.
"This..." Lorraine Hill didn't know how to answer, and felt that any answer seemed a bit boastful.
"Okay, but I still don't know what the process and program of the festival are. This matter has always been the responsibility of the alliance's industry union."
"This is not difficult. The Dew Festival originated from the War of Chaos a thousand years ago. The original white-flowered Saint Duerlan led people to hold on to this harbor during the war, repelling several attacks from the shadows of Chaos, and finally waited until
Reinforcements are coming across the sea."
"The small harbor at the beginning became famous because of this, and then it slowly developed and now it has become a famous commercial city in the south."
"In order to commemorate Saint Durlan, a grand Dew Festival ceremony will be held in Hopeland every three years. Many people from the Seven Snow Flower Countries will come to watch the ceremony, and it will be very lively."
Then Lady Philia began to describe the process of the ceremony, while Lorraine Hill listened quietly.
"Is it generally clear?"
"Yeah, I got it."
"Okay, if you are afraid of making mistakes in singing, you can try it first tonight?"
"tonight?"
"Yes, there will be an opera tonight at the city theater, and Lan Lier will also participate. You will be singing behind the scenes, so you don't have to show up, and you will only sing according to the score and script, so it is not too difficult. Let you How about trying it out first?”
After hearing this, Lorraine Hill felt relieved and wanted to try it.
"Okay, can I ask which opera it is?"
"A very famous opera, I believe you have heard of it, tells the story of the origin of the famous Knights of Lightning - "The Genealogy of the God of Thunder""
"Well, that legendary man is the dream of many young people."
----------------------------------
The Kingdom of the West Wind, Saw Valley City.
Groups of rebels walked through the city, constantly taking over and controlling various key points in the city. The city head was also replaced with a blue gold star flag.
The collapsed city gate was moved aside, the city wall was full of gaps and cave-ins, and black smoke was still rising from many places in the city. The corpses were moved to designated locations by specialized personnel to prepare for cremation to avoid the plague.
Pullman and several companions climbed to the high tower in the city to overlook the scarred city.
"It's not easy. No one thought that Earl Heiman's will to resist would be so tenacious." said a strong man wearing thick armor.
"Well, the land around Saw Valley City is fertile and rich in rye. It is an important granary for the kingdom. Earl Blackman is a good man, and the people's living standards are much better than those in the surrounding areas, so it is no wonder that he has such a strong will to resist." A handsome man next to him said. the young man said.
"It's a pity that he is a die-hard fan of West Wind, so we can only stand on the opposite side."
Pullman felt a little sad when he thought of the count who fought to the death when the city was destroyed. Although he was an enemy, he could not help but admire him.
"The West Wind is rotten from the foundation. It cannot be changed by one or two good nobles. Nor can we place our hope and future on personal morality." One of the short figures said, his figure hidden under the cloak. , can’t see the face clearly.
"Yes, we can only give him a proper burial. By the way, does Earl Heiman have any descendants?" Pullman asked.
"All four of his sons died in the war. Only his 12-year-old daughter was hiding in the cellar under the protection of her nanny. She was just caught by the searching soldiers this morning." The handsome young man replied.
"Tolan, give the nanny a sum of money and let her leave. Then we will find an elder with good character to take care of her."
"Okay." Tolan agreed. He also understood that if his nanny was allowed to take care of him, he would probably only cultivate an enemy. Although they did not shy away from what they did, they did not want to see this child go to the bottom and end. The opposite of yourself.
"Before Saw Valley City was captured, Earl Heiman had already transported most of the food to the royal capital in the south. Now we don't have much food and can only last for one month, and the next autumn harvest will take two months. This period of time is dangerous. Come on, Pullman," Tolan continued.
"I know." Pullman looked at the green and vast wilderness in the south for a long time before speaking.
"But what I'm more worried about is that West Wind is desperate to recruit the elite to guard the vortex of chaos, the legendary knights."
"But we can't go back, can we?" Tolan sighed.
"We can only keep moving forward, even if we are facing the famous heroic legend on the mainland, the Lightning Knights with shining lightning."
