Inside the Hearthstone Tavern.
"Why are these scripts tragic!"
Ciri was wiping her tears with the script that Qiao Xiu had just written. This young lady magician, brave enough to fight a brown bear with her bare hands, did not cry when she watched "Beauty and the Devil" and "This Devil Is Not Too Cold" become like this.
"This... can only be regarded as a coincidence, um... yes, a coincidence."
Joshua's new script is about the relationship between pets and people.
But it's just an initial version of the script, and only the general plot is enough to make this emotional lady magician cry.
"And it's going to take a while for this script to start filming."
For the new filming, Joshua plans to wait until "The Devil Is Not Too Cold" will be released in various places in Farosi before starting plans.
Joshua can contact Caroline through the magic net to know the promotion progress of "This Devil Is Not Too Cold".
And now, in addition to waiting for the Dark Elf Thousand Faces to return to Nolan and officially establishing the world's first news broadcast, what Joshua has to do is to produce the latest expansion pack of Hearthstone Legend, "Goblin vs. Gnomes".
Joshua glanced at the post on the caster forum at hand announcing the new cards of "Goblin vs. Gnomes". The completion of this new expansion has been extremely high, and there are only seventeen new cards and the dubbing work of all cards left. , it won't be long before you can officially land in the Hearthstone Tavern.
Josh's conversation with Ciri didn't last long when a bat flew in from the window.
The moment Ciri saw the bat, he put down the script and picked up the staff in his hand. A pure white inscription of order overflowed at the tip of the staff.
The magician lady sensed a threat from the bat...
A scarlet mist shrouded the bat, and when the mist cleared, the bat became the watcher named Pest.
"Your Highness."
She bowed slightly and bowed to Qiao Xiu, but her scarlet eyes were fixed on Ciri.
Although she can give absolute respect to Joshua as a Chaos Demon, she doesn't like the human spellcaster, especially when Ciri also shows hostility towards her.
The vampires are proficient in special mental attack methods, which can make a weak human lose the combat effectiveness just by looking at them.
"What's the matter with Miss Watcher looking for me late at night like this? I think my sister is waiting for your answer."
Joshua took a step forward and stretched out his hand to block Ciri in front of him, meeting Pester's gaze.
The watcher's pupils behind the mask are like two expensive rubies, but the temptation is deadly.
Joshua has never let his guard down, even though she's been in the Hearthstone Tavern a lot lately.
"I have bad news for you, the church is planning an assassination plan, and the target is you," Pest said.
"Assassination plan?"
Before Joshua could wait for Pester to answer, the frost elf Tailin pushed open the door of the study, holding a tray in her hand, on which were several delicious-looking dishes.
"Mr. Joshua, your dinner... am I... disturbing?"
Taelin saw Peste standing in Joshua's room. The elves were born with a much sharper perception than ordinary people, which made her immediately feel the strong smell of blood on Peste's body.
"It's okay to come in, you can also listen to it together." Joshua said.
"Okay… okay."
Taelin put dinner on the desk and ran to Ciri's side.
"Lord Qiao Xiu, the assassins sent by the church this time are extraordinary. Are you sure they will choose to swear allegiance to you after they know about it?"
Peste glanced at Taelin and Ciri... She had always been skeptical of the female magician and the frost elf's allegiance.
After all, the prejudice of humans and elves towards the demon race is too great, which also led to Peste's prejudice against these two races.
"I don't know about that either. Anyway, let's hear it first." Joshua said.
"This time, the church has sent two chief judges and twelve judges to prepare to assassinate you. The time will be about a week later. Let me remind you that once there was a duchy named Baixi, the king of that country The church is an evil existence, he burned the church and executed the missionaries of the church, but in the end his head was hung on the city wall, it is said that this is what the church's heresy inquisition did."
Pest hopes to make Joshua understand how terrifying the Church's heretic judges are.
"I know about this incident."
Qiao Xiu is a reader of "The Inquisitor's Diary". In that diary, he described the assassination incident that shocked the world in detail in the first person. In that incident, there were only twelve inquisitors and three presiding judges. do.
In a sense, Joshua's current treatment is similar to that of a kingdom king.
"So please return to the Demon Realm with me. The weak defense of this tavern cannot protect you at all!"
Pest made her request again, but Joshua turned to look at Taelin and Ciri.
"You heard, although I don't know if the information she said is true, but it should be certain that I was wanted by the church... You should remember the price of being with the devil?"
Joshua gave Tailin and Ciri very few constraints, just a contract based on the Nolan Business Association, which could not play any role in this life-and-death juncture.
Although Taelin and Ciri are entertainers under Joshua, and they are not soldiers, there is no reason to go to death with Joshua... But...
"Mr. Joshua..."
Taelin was the first to speak. She shoulders the heavy responsibility of reviving her own race. She doesn't want to be involved in the dispute between the devil and the church, but since she signed a contract with Joshua, she was destined to stand. Qiao Xiu's camp is participating in a war that ordinary people can't see at all.
"The holy tree Enluxi is willing to bless you and choose to stand on your side, so I don't plan to run away."
The holy tree Enluci refers to the world tree that resides in Tailin's body. It already has its own consciousness, and of course it will give itself a name.
"I'm more concerned about when the next month's salary will be paid than the assassination."
Ciri is more realistic than Taelin, she has no real feelings for the disputes between the church and the devil.
"Probably in the middle of next month, Ciri, do you have anything to buy recently... um... it seems to be off topic."
Joshua once again turned his gaze back to Pest who was behind him.
"His Royal Highness Joshua, with the power you have now, it is very dangerous to face the attack of the judge. I can protect you and return to the devil world safely."
Pest really regretted that she didn't learn how to convince others back then. Although Qiao Xiu was thinking about how to deal with the incoming judge, she had no idea of returning to the devil world!
"An army of judges? Fourteen... It is indeed a little too many, but it is quite lively."
"lively?"
Pest really didn't understand how Joshua came up with the word.
"I'm not sure if the information you gave is true, but you're lucky, because in six days, it will be the day of the release of Hearthstone's new card pack "Goblin vs. Gnomes"." Joshua said.
