379. Red (2)

A time when a giant demon species appeared, and the world was abuzz with rumors about it for a while.

Secret and mysterious things were happening all over the continent that people were not aware of.

It may be trivial, but for those who encounter it, it is a definite opportunity for change that can change their future course of action. It was a subtle movement that added cause and effect and the lack of cause and effect.

The coincidence first occurred in the imperial palace.

"... What is this?"

Pearl Palace.

Edith, who was tidying up the prince's empty room as always, found a small bead rolling around at her feet. It was an empty soul stone.

"Now that I think about it, it seems like Prince Mores often carried this around with him... ... ."

I didn't know how the prince's things ended up rolling around on the floor. But Edith didn't think much about it and immediately picked up his marble.

"I'll take it first and ask your Majesty."

There was no sense of danger about tampering with the prince's belongings. Because the person she served was not that flexible.

It was like that just the other day. Although she used the imperial carriage as she pleased without permission, Prince Mores praised Edith greatly and even gave her a huge reward.

Thanks to this, I earned enough income to just eat and play for the next few years.

'But I can't take time off from work. I have to take care of Max, and sometimes it's fun to play plate throwing.'

Edith hummed and put the soul stone into her apron pocket.

Small coincidences come to any playwright.

"Master Sorbonne! This work is also a hit! It is said that re-watching 'Ambrosia of the Tower of Heads' is becoming a trend in the social circles of the imperial capital these days. "You truly have God-given talent!"

When the opera house owner raised his voice with excitement, the playwright, who had sensitive ears, frowned.

"Enough empty words. "What else do you want from me?"

"These are empty words, they are insincere! More than that, teacher. Shouldn't we start the next work soon? "I will support you with whatever you need!"

"what? It's been a while since you previewed your new work, but you're already on the verge of your next work, right? Hey, theater owner. "Aren't you thinking too lightly of the pain of creation?"

The theater owner, taken aback by her fierce opposition, stammered.

"B-but, teacher. 'Ambrosia of the Tower of Heads' has long been passed down from Cypriot bards... ... ."

"Oh, it's noisy! "If writing a four-act long play based on an old song like that isn't creativity, then what else in this world can be called creativity?"

The playwright responded nervously and suddenly raised both hands at the same speed. Then he gets angry by pointing to the left and right sides of the theater owner's head at the same time with the same finger.

"Besides, as I've said before, didn't I tell you to pay attention to your parting when you come to my mansion? "If you see your crooked parting that disturbs the balance of the world, the inspiration for your work will soon get fed up and run away!"
