Chapter 126

Something that can spark joy for her?

Joshua was not close with this dark elf. He couldn’t possibly know what could possibly make her happy.

But, when it comes to something that could please a woman... The first thing that came to Joshua’s mind was some sort of pink skip ball.

With the thought of trying things out, Joshua took out ‘Léon: The Demon’s’ sample film that he had just finished editing.

“Pluk, put off the light in the hallway.”

Joshua found a rather smooth wall on the hallway that could be barely used as a projector screen.

Pluk turned off the originium crystals used to illuminate the hallway. With this, the hallway became completely dark.

“What are you planning to do?”

To the current dark elf, being in the dark would only worsen her condition.

Joshua did not answer her. Instead, he took out the originium crystal that stored the incomplete ‘Léon: The Demon’ and pointed it to the wall he chose earlier.

The moment light appeared on the wall, the dark elf knew what Joshua was planning to do.

“I am not at all interested in those stories used to deceive children.”

One of the dark elf’s racial talents was the ability to see at night. On top of that, the movie projection was illuminating light too. She saw the children Pluk took in had all gathered here out of curiosity.

“Allow me to correct you. Movies are not only used to deceive children. If the script is good enough, then, in theory, that movie will be able to deceive everyone.”

Joshua adjusted the focus of the originium crystal. With this, ‘Léon: The Demon,’ began screening in the small hotel.

“Stop hiding over there. There’s extra seats open here,” Joshua said to those curious children.

After receiving Joshua’s permission, the children immediately sat down beside the dark elf...

Surrounded by kids, the dark elf closed her eyes and shook her head in a helpless manner. But, the kids’ innocent looks brought her some joy.

Perhaps attracting these kids was Joshua’s real purpose?

The dark elf truly didn’t think Joshua’s movie would be able to make her interested at all. His last movie, ‘Beauty and the Demon,’ was simply too naive and childish to her. It was simply a story for kids to watch before bedtime.

Because of that, the dark elf did not possess much hope for the new movie. But, when her subordinate, Pluk, appeared on the screen, she became slightly curious.

“That movie’s not suited for kids, no?”

Having just walked up the stairs, Ciri carefully walked over to Joshua’s side and whispered in his ears.

Ciri had read the entire script for ‘Léon: The Demon.’ She truly does not recommend letting children watch a movie with such explicit and bloody scenes.

“The first portion of the movie... should be fine.”

Joshua took a glance at the half-dragon and gray-cat beastmen children. They appeared to be still on guard against him and did not dare to rashly approach him.

It would appear that, compared to humans, it was easier for an elf to receive their trust.

While Joshua was looking at the kids, the movie had entered the part where Léon entered the tavern with the intention of unleashing a massacre.

The dark elf was completely focused on the movie. Her previous painful expression had completely disappeared.

That was what Joshua wanted to see. Just like that, the movie continued on till the scene they finished filming today.

It was only when the screen turned white and the surrounding lights were turned back on that the dark elf stopped focusing on the movie.

“It’s over?” She asked.

“No. That’s only a portion of the movie, less than a quarter of the total movie. Now that you’ve seen it, do you still think that it’s something to deceive children with?” asked Joshua as he looked at the dark elf’s vacant and confused expression.

The dark elf pursed her lips. She didn’t know how to answer him. Earlier, her mind was completely filled with the crazed muttering voices. But, after the movie started screening, those muttering voices disappeared from her head and were replaced with the plot of the movie.

That was a very fantastical experience. It was like she had countless lunatics murmuring in her ears only to be seated in an airplane to Maldives the next instant. The moment she arrived, she began to enjoy the best service... champagne, beauties, the blue sky, the sea and the sandy shore. Most importantly of all, they were all free!

“I... take back my previous evaluation of movies.”

The dark elf stayed silent for a while. In the end, she had no choice but to voice her real opinion.

Indeed, the movie ‘Léon: The Demon’ had caught her attention. Especially the female lead Mathilda. Even though she did not experience the same sort of bitter encounter as the female lead, she was able to feel a special sort of sympathy for her.

When the film reached the point where the female lead begged the male lead for help, the dark elf had forgotten to even blink her eyes. The muttering voices that were driving her insane has all been replaced by the desire to know what happens next in the movie.

When she finished watching ‘Léon: The Demon,’ she discovered that her mental condition was already much better.

Even though she was still feeling very weak, she was no longer in so much pain that she wanted to faint.

Holding the wall, she forced herself up on her foot. Joshua got a chair and placed it before her.

“Also, I simply find it unbelievable that something like that would be able to help me escape from the nightmare...”

This was not the first time the dark elf experienced those crazed mutterings. In the past, she would have to pay an enormous price to escape from that nightmare.

But, this time around, just by watching the movie, those illusions disappeared from her head without her even knowing about it.

“What do you mean by ‘nightmare?’ You were not acting like you’re sick with an illness earlier.”

The screening for ‘Léon: The Demon,’ really ended up working and helped the dark elf escape from her near-crumbling state of mind.

As the dark elf’s skin complexion was dark purple, he was unable to determine her state of health from her skin tone. But, at the very least, she was now able to stand.

“You truly have no idea?”

Hearing that question, the dark elf suddenly stared into Joshua’s eyes. She seemed to be inspecting if he was lying.

“My intelligence network is extremely lacking. At least, that is the case for now. That is why I wanted your help.”

Joshua pointed at his own head. Once he finishes setting up the internet in this world, he will, in some sense, become an omniscient... god. He can make a site similar to Baidu or Google.

But, establishing something like that needed a long time. Because of that, what Joshua needed to do right now was to help Tylene’s World Tree seed germinate.

As for this dark elf, it was very clear that she was deeply connected with the gray mist that was preventing the World Tree seed from germinating.

“As a thanks for helping me disperse the nightmare, I am able to provide you the information free of charge... Actually, all of this is caused by the Holy Church’s Heresy Tribunal.”
