Taelin followed Joshua to the second floor of the tavern, and when she went upstairs, she was ready to activate her bracelet at any time.
Once there is a dangerous ambush upstairs, she will return to the bedroom of Farosi's mansion through the magic engraved on the bracelet as soon as possible.
But when she came upstairs, she found that her worries were unnecessary, and it was much simpler than Taelin had imagined.
There is no magic circle full of evil energy, no cauldron filled with all kinds of ominous objects, just a very ordinary dwelling.
Joshua pushed open the door of his office, and there was a bed specially used for rest. Joshua could only temporarily put Ciri, who had fallen asleep, on the bed.
"You're here means you're ready to sign a contract with me?"
Joshua looked back at the elf standing at the door. At this moment, she seemed a little cautious, her long ears were shaking slightly like a rabbit, and it seemed that if there was any trouble, she would run away as soon as possible.
"Can I... see the contents of the contract?"
Taelin is always vigilant for any magical fluctuations, including some subtle footsteps, but the most she can catch is the noisy noise below the tavern.
"no problem."
Qiao Xiu found an employment contract on his desk, which is a work contract in the words of the earth. This contract was temporarily drafted by Qiao Xiu a few days ago and belongs to the general contract of this entertainment company.
It's a pity that Joshua's entertainment company is now only Ciri, but this frost elf is likely to become the second person.
Tailin carefully took the contract paper handed over by Joshua. When her hand touched the paper, it was a bit like touching a bomb that could detonate at any time.
But Taelin once again unexpectedly found that there was no vicious curse or magical aura on this contract at all.
She has absolute confidence in her own perception, and she can feel even a tiny bit of magic attached to any object.
But what was in her hand at this time was just a very ordinary piece of paper, at best with a few lines written on it.
Could it be that there are traps elsewhere
Taelin briefly glanced at the contents of the contract. In her imagination, "sacrifice your life", "become the other party's slave forever" and so on... Almost one of the common regulations in the rumored demon contract is almost all of them. not seen.
This is just a very ordinary employment contract, and the conditions in it are also very generous, and even the working hours are not specified.
"Entertainment... guild?"
Taelin repeated the unfamiliar phrase in the title. She thought Joshua was the manager of a certain theater company, but in fact it didn't seem to be the case.
"You can understand it as another form of business guild, but what we sell is music, painting, games, film and television, etc..."
"Then what do I... need to do for this guild?"
The contract in Tailin's hand did not specify her work content, but there were several confidentiality agreements and patent ownership rights, etc. At the bottom of the contract was the wax seal of the Nolan Business Council, which represented that the contract was accepted. protected by Nolan law.
"It depends on what you do."
This question of Joshua was difficult for Taelin.
She opened her mouth and found that she couldn't say anything. She found that the most proud ability of the elves, whether it was archery or frost magic, Joshua didn't seem to need it.
"I have confidence in my singing voice."
However, she soon found what she was good at. The elves live in the forest, and sometimes they need to communicate with the local fairies. These creatures from ancient trees and plants will be attracted by the beautiful singing.
Even the consciousness born in the World Tree is the same... So Tailin has absolute confidence in her singing voice. After all, when the World Tree of their family was still a towering ancient tree, she was attracted to the World Tree by her singing. Consciousness comes to listen.
"Singer? Then please perform live, just a few short sentences. Anything is fine."
Joshua immediately thought of the black wood elf. The black wood elf also attracted the appearance of the black cat through singing in the garden of the Farosi mansion.
Maybe the frost elf can summon a white cat when he sings
Facing Joshua's request, Taelin didn't hesitate. She took a deep breath and was about to sing a cappella Let It Go when she felt something stuck in her throat.
What followed was a sense of weakness that blurred her eyes.
Oops... Taelin covered her forehead and took a few steps back. She reached out her hand to support the wall next to her but waved it in the air, causing her body to lose her balance and fall to the ground.
This feeling of weakness became more frequent and prolonged over time, which was why Taelin was so desperate to find nourishment for the World Tree.
Tailin braced her body and wanted to stand up, but her body's consciousness was gradually drifting away from him.
It would be fine if she was in a coma in the room at Farosi's mansion, but now she is beside a demon!
Comatose in this unsuspecting state, Taelin didn't know what she would be like when she woke up.
Despair grew out of Taelin's heart. She tried her best to mobilize her magic power to resist this feeling of weakness, but her magic power was devoured by unknown forces little by little.
Tailin's sight gradually fell into the darkness, and finally her consciousness was gradually swallowed by the darkness.
Joshua stared at the unconscious frost elf, and Ciri, who was lying on the bed, also happened to wake up at this time.
Ciri's clear consciousness is very fast, which should be the positive effect of the magic in the body.
So Ciri's eyes swept back and forth between Joshua and the unconscious frost elf for a while.
"Although you may not believe it, she passed out without doing anything."
Joshua spread his hands and looked innocent, but judging from the skeptical expression on Ciri's face, if this was Earth, the girl might just take out her phone and call 110.
"Don't explain... what are we going to do with this elf?"
Ciri sighed, with an expression I could understand. After all, she was also someone who was kidnapped by Qiao Xiu, but now she has become an accomplice.
Ciri has already had the consciousness to get on this pirate ship... Or the consciousness of following the devil, which is the legendary "reaching a consensus with the criminals."
"Okay okay, first take her to the bed."
Joshua was too lazy to explain, since Ciri was awake, he couldn't let this frost elf, who seemed to be suffering from some strange disease, sleep on the floor.
"And then take off your clothes?" Ciri pulled up her sleeves as if planning to do it herself.
"Don't pick it up! We're legitimate businessmen, don't do this kind of thing... Uh, at least not now."
Joshua suddenly remembered that he had indeed kidnapped Ciri before, but now he has already washed his hands.
