"I see! The angel is indeed far-sighted!"
It seems that Lady Alice has become somewhat obedient to her master. Anna sighed, Sister Alice would have fought Gwenhwyfar to the death until Gwenhwyfar agreed to convert, or Sister Alice was completely eliminated. But now Sister Alice allowed the heresy to exist, thinking that it was God's mercy and a negative example for the world.
Angelica turned back to Gwenhwyfar.
"Well, your original intention was to prevent me from intervening in the conflict between you and Auberon, not to argue with Miss Sister, right?"
"Choosing between the two is a choice only a child would make..."
"Then there should be a priority order. Which one is more important?"
Of course, it is to overthrow Oberon.
Gwenhuaifa's expression had proved everything. Both of them were existences that Gwenhuaifa disliked, but the vampires were at best just flies flying around in the air, while the Elf King, who occupied a position that did not belong to him, was a pest that jumped onto the dining table and even left filthy marks on the plates. The latter must be the one to be dealt with first.
Angelica just wanted to pass through the Elf Island. She didn't plan to report it to Oberon. With that guy's ability, he should know what Gwenhwaefa was planning.
Angelica took out a piece of parchment from the storage space, wrote something on it, and then threw the parchment into the air. The wind seemed to have consciousness, guiding the parchment to fall into Gwenhwyfa's hands.
"Contract documents."
"Is this what you want?"
The contract document is a special magic item signed by magicians to prevent betrayal when they cooperate with each other. After writing each other's names, it is bound to the soul and enforces certain restrictions.
The contract document is a very precious magic item. Having said that, there are actually many ways to circumvent the contract document. For example, you cannot kill each other, but hiring someone to kill is possible. Unless it is written on the parchment of the contract document that hiring someone to kill is prohibited, the contract will be binding on hiring someone to kill. However, the capacity of parchment is limited, and it is impossible to write down all the content. It can only be said that it is a useless magic item that is better than nothing.
The contract document provided by Angelica stated that she would not get involved in the conflict between Gwenhwyfar and Oberon. She did not think it was a problem because, after all, the contract document was not Sequence 1 magic and was not completely unbreakable.
But for Gwenhwyfar, the witch's clear position is very important, so that she doesn't have to worry about the witch coming out to help her friends all day long.
Angelica's condition was to allow them to go to the south of the Elf Island. As for the conflict with Sister Alice, Angelica did not write it down. Anyway, by that time, Sister Alice would have run off to who knows where.
Gwenhever signed her name on the contract document, and the contract was established. Gwenhever let the witch go in exchange for her promise to remain neutral in the upcoming war.
The high elves have never had the habit of hospitality, and after getting what they wanted, Gwenhuaifa did not try to keep the witch and her companions, and watched them leave.
Shortly after the witch left, a figure appeared from behind the high priest's throne.
"Your Majesty, the weapons have been prepared."
"Very good. You did your duty."
Gwenhwifa was extremely satisfied. If Angelica had stayed here, she would have been surprised by the identity of the person who showed up, because it was an elderly man.
It is impossible for the high elves to allow humans to enter Camlann Castle without permission. This only shows that this man has the full trust of the high priest. He does not even call Gwenhwyfar the high priest, but chooses Her Majesty the Queen as an honorific title. Is it to please the hot-tempered high priest, or is he confident that he can push Her Majesty the Queen to the throne?
The only thing that is clear is that Gwenhwyfar found allies, and her allies traveled across the ocean and secretly provided weapons to the high elves.
The next thing to do is to remove the errant Elven King from his throne and make Albion great again.
312 [The Witch and the Killer Whale]
If there is anything unique about living a long time, it is undoubtedly the singing that carries on for hundreds and thousands of years.
Angelica, who once traveled around the world, listened to many beautiful songs of singers. As time passed, the singers passed away, but the witch who listened to those songs still remembered those melodies.
"The master is in a good mood."
Anna, who was serving behind Angelica, waited until the song was over and cheered for Angelica excitedly.
"A beautiful young singer with a sweet voice, surely no one else can claim this title except me?"
Angelica raised her chin triumphantly. She was indeed in a very good mood, which was due to several good things happening at the same time.
Firstly, with the blood obtained from spending time with Sister Alice, Angelica successfully developed an antidote to completely get rid of the side effects. She no longer had to use magic to suppress her strange thoughts. By the way, Angelica has not yet gotten rid of Anna's influence.
It’s not that Anna has any special physique. Angelica even prepared the portion for Coppelia. The reason why she didn’t give it to Anna was that Angelica really enjoyed the breakfast milk that Anna provided in the morning.
Secondly, she finally got rid of those high elves who only knew how to make sour faces. Compared with the northern elves, Angelica felt that the southern elves were cuter.
Third, the purpose of coming to Albion Island was to find the whereabouts of the descendants of the "Bow" hero. As soon as she arrived in the south of Albion Island, Angelica got a clue about the descendants of the "Bow" hero. It can't even be called a clue, but it directly locked the identity of the descendants of the "Bow" hero.
"I haven't heard of any "bow" hero... However, some time ago, the fairy queen got a bow that is said to have magical powers, and she began to feel unwell and rarely saw us."
A passing elf said so.
The so-called Fairy Queen is the name of the Elf King's spouse on the island of Albion, analogous to the Queen in the human world. The Fairy Queen is an old acquaintance of Angelica... or an old lover? Angelica originally wanted to reminisce with her, but she didn't expect that she was actually the descendant of the "Bow" hero.
To be precise, he should be the inheritor of the power of the "Bow" Hero. When Angelica met the Fairy Queen before, she didn't show any signs of being a descendant of a hero. The power of the "Bow" Hero is the same as that of the "Sword" Hero, which is inherited through weapons.
You can relax a little and spend the rest of the journey in a leisurely mood.
Angelica happily hummed a song she had heard long ago. Although her untrained singing voice was not outstanding, her pleasant voice made up for this minor shortcoming.
"It's so beautiful! The angel's singing voice...it's heavenly! It must be heavenly!"
"Hmm~"
"But the lyrics of the angel's song don't praise God. Why is that? It should be a hymn."
One problem with dealing with people who have deep-rooted religious ideas is that they will think about everything from a sacred perspective. Rather than the fact that it is rare to hear the true voice of angels, Sister Alice cares more about why the lyrics are not praising the Almighty God.
"——No, Sister, you are wrong. This song was originally composed by a band that left their hometown to express their homesickness. It was not a hymn. However, the bands that travel around the world have been replaced by bards who can sing and speak, and few people know this ancient ballad anymore."
Suddenly someone interrupted the conversation between Angelica and Sister Alice. Anna had noticed early in the morning that there was a human male listening to Angelica singing not far away, and she judged that this person had no ill intentions.
"You don't look like a businessman?"
Angelica tilted her head. Most of the humans who appeared at the border between the north and south of the Elf Island were merchants, but this man didn't look like one.
"Ah, sorry, it's rare for me to hear an old song I like, and I got a little excited... By the way!"
The man clapped his hands in surprise.
"Beautiful lady, are you interested in working here? It would be a shame not to show such a nice throat to the audience. I promise that I will make you the top star of our club!"
Angelica suddenly realized, could this man be a talent scout? Angelica had indeed heard that there were people who specialized in discovering new talents with potential, but she had never expected that there would be such people in this world.
Needless to say, with Angelica's background, she would be a big star even without packaging. Although Angelica didn't want to be too much in the spotlight, it would be a lie to say that she wasn't happy to be chosen by a talent scout...
Anna was particularly alert.
"Sir, Anna believes that it is basic etiquette to introduce yourself first before inviting others."
"My name is Anthony, and I'm the promoter of the Moon Circus..."
Angelica's smile completely froze.
"Keep going, Anna."
"Yes, Master."
"Please, please wait a moment! You misunderstood!"
"I don't want to be locked in a cage and watched by everyone!"
"I told you it's not like that—"
Sister Alice murmured with her head down. She always felt that the name sounded familiar.
"Moon Circus...Moon Circus...Ah! I remember now! You're the circus that makes friends with animals!"
"Yes, yes! It's us!"
"Thank God! I have always wanted to see it with my own eyes, but I didn't expect you to come to Albion Island."
Judging from Sister Alice's attitude, the Moon Circus seemed to be a well-known circus. Angelica thought about it seriously for a while. At least the Moon Circus did not exist in her memory. It seemed that it was not a circus with a long history. It should have been established during Angelica's seclusion.
Angelica would not be surprised by this. Each time she lived in seclusion, it would be decades at least. It was long enough for the outside world to change so much that when Angelica left the Misty Mountains again, she would be amazed at the changes. It was normal for a society to become famous during this period.
"My Lord Angel, please listen to me. The Moon Circus is not a circus that abuses animals. They treat animals very kindly!"
Sister Alice explained on behalf of the man named Anthony that she often preached in human territory and had heard many rumors, including the Moon Circus.
The so-called circus is a troupe that focuses on animal performances. The trainers will command the animals to perform various acrobatic performances, including but not limited to jumping through a ring of fire and stepping on a ball. For most people, this is quite a novelty. However, it is inevitable that it will become boring after a long time, so the circus always travels around to perform in various places.
313 Moon Circus
"Are you all magicians?"
Angelica subconsciously thought with the mindset of a magician. Common language magic can only communicate with systematic languages. If she wants to communicate with animals, she must learn other magic.
Aries, Sequence Five: Conversation with Living Beings, can achieve the purpose of communicating with animals, but it is considered to be one of the least practical magic of Sequence Five. If there were marketing accounts in this world that like to count the "Top 10 Most Flashy Magics", Conversation with Living Beings would definitely be a frequent visitor on this list.
A careful study of the universal language magic will reveal its characteristics. Although the universal language magic can convert with the languages of other races, it cannot understand the words of infants. If the infant is distressed, even if the mother has learned the universal language magic, she can only judge what the infant wants to express through feeling.
This is because babies have not yet grown to have a complete language system. The situation is similar for animals. In fact, the IQ of animals is generally not as good as that of humans, elves, orcs and other creatures. Magicians who have learned to converse with creatures try to communicate with animals and record what the animals want to express.
How should I describe the result? The conclusion I got can only be described as disappointing: it was all a bunch of chaotic words. To use Angelica's words, it was probably similar to an article produced after several machine translations.
Most animals cannot clearly express information to humans in the same way as they do within their tribe, so they need to get closer and understand each other beforehand. But conversations between living beings are not magic that has no effect, and at least they can build a good relationship with animals innately.
"No, there are some of us who can do magic, but most of us are just ordinary people like me."
Anthony's face was filled with energy when he talked about the circus. He was not forced to wander around because he had difficulty making a living, but out of his love and passion for animals.
"We get closer to our companions by spending time together day and night. Sister, you must have heard of some famous names, right?"
"Yes! I've always wanted to see Xiaoti's performance!"
"We will give our partners friendly names because they are partners who work with us to bring happiness to the audience. Xiaoti is one of the most famous guys in our circus. He is a killer whale and will also appear in the next performance."
After that, Anthony did his job and distributed flyers of the Moon Circus to Angelica and others. The flyers vividly depicted the cute little animals in the circus, and the killer whale playing with the actors dressed as mermaids in the flyers must be the one that Sister Alice liked.
Killer whales are a group of creatures that live in the ocean. They have a black and white smooth appearance. At first glance, they are relatively honest creatures, but they are extremely ferocious in the ocean and will even hunt great white sharks or whales. However, what is incredible is that killer whales will show an incredibly friendly attitude towards humans and are particularly close to humans.
"We at the Moon Circus have always wanted to combine singing with the rhythm of animals. Opera dancers in the past were all humans, but if we could have animals as dancers, it would definitely be well received. Unfortunately, we haven't been able to find the right singers."
"I see... But unfortunately, I'm not very interested in that."
Angelica was not the type who was particularly fond of animals. Cute little animals were okay, but she stayed away from circus animals like lions, monkeys and elephants. She believed that those animals were beyond her control, and if they suddenly went crazy and scratched her face or something, Angelica would not be able to bear it.
Despite Angelica's clear refusal, Anthony remained enthusiastic.
"It's too early to draw a conclusion now. How about coming to visit the Moon Circus? We are stationed in Scarborough Town not far ahead. Even if you still decide not to join the Moon Circus in the end, it will still be a pleasant trip."
Anthony said that Angelica had no reason to refuse, not to mention that they were going to pass through Scarborough. Although Angelica herself had little interest in the circus, Sister Alice was obviously looking forward to it, and Anna had never seen a circus performance in person.
After making an appointment, Anthony led the group to Scarborough. During the trip, Anthony made full use of his duties as a propagandist and told stories about the circus in an exaggerated way. Sister Alice was amused and laughed continuously, and even Anna's mouth corners rose slightly without her noticing.
For the elves, the circus performance is a very novel entertainment, and there are many animals that they have never seen in Albion Island. According to Anthony, the purpose of their coming to Albion Island is to share happiness with the elves. At first, the elves were a little repulsive to them, but every time they passed a place, the Moon Circus successfully left laughter and joy.
Unfortunately, they hit a wall on their way to the north. The high elves would not allow them to pass no matter what. The Moon Circus's journey to the Elf Island had to end here.
Of course, this is not a bad thing. They gained a lot in the southern part of the Elf Island. Since they had to train together every time they arrived at a place, their reputation spread faster than their progress. At first, the Moon Circus was unknown when it landed on the island, but when they arrived in Scarborough, the elves had heard of the reputation of the Moon Circus and were even willing to allow them to stay in the town.
The elves of Scarborough left the Moon Circus with a large open space for rehearsals and future performances. The area was shielded by a huge curtain, and after Anthony explained the situation, the Moon Circus allowed Angelica and others to enter their rest area.
"Amazing……"
Sister Alice seldom visited entertainment venues, and she was immediately attracted by the rehearsal of the Moon Circus. Her eyes fell on an actor dressed as a clown, who was performing ball-throwing acrobatics with a ball under his feet. However, there was a monkey next to the clown who was performing the same show as him, and was just as good.
Anna raised her head and looked at a lion above with a little surprise. It was actually walking on its two feet and stepping on a tightrope. It looked shaky but always maintained its balance.
Angelica coughed lightly, giving a friendly reminder as an elderly person.
“I suggest you don’t get too absorbed in watching it, or else it will lose its freshness when the show officially begins.”
"That makes sense...By the way, is Xiaoti here?"
314 Miss Witch and the Caged Bird
"Xiaoti is over here."
Anthony smiled and led Sister Alice. Although the elves lived on islands, it was obviously impossible for every place to be surrounded by the sea. Scarborough Town was an inland city.
Sister Alice was inevitably curious about how the killer whale could move around on land, and she soon found the answer.
A space was reserved in the circus to accommodate the inflatable pool specially customized for the Moon Circus. A woman was playing with a killer whale in the pool.
However, the size of the pool is too small for adult killer whales.
"Joanna! I brought a guest."
"Hello."
