Chapter 396: Women's Debate
It is impossible to restore the entire original work of the stage play, and the limitations of the venue and duration must inevitably be cut and adapted. "Demon King Invincible One" is the story of the brave man defeating the previous demon king, "Demon King Invincible II" is the story of the brave living an ordinary life, and in "Demon King Invincible III", the brave has directly become the demon king, and the next brave man stepped forward to challenge, and in the end he could only laugh at the story of the demon king.
These two and three are almost separate stories when interpreted in the stage play. Most people only watch stage plays, but not the original books, and they don't even necessarily be able to relate to each other. And the fourth part has many versions, and many of them have been interpreted into stage plays.
The original intention of this book is to hope that the reader will think about life, so it has an open ending. However, unlike other stories that torture human nature, there is no special tragic plot for the reader to force reflection, but its style is biased towards humor and absurdity, which makes it easy for even low-class civilians to read. The plot of the final brave man who laughs at the demon king with jokes is obviously an excellent place.
However, it was too difficult to deduce, and Kevin understood the joke told by the brave. Let a brave man who was originally a very gentleman and a very civilized suddenly say a foul word, there will be a sense of contrast, which can most of them make people laugh. But if the level of the audience is too low, or the audience's sense of humor is too low to understand the joke, it becomes very embarrassing.
But fortunately, the stage crew also had a contingency plan, and the demon king immediately began to laugh forcibly: "Hahaha...... Hahaha......"
The laughter continued to echo in the theater, and the audience was infected by him, and they were forced to laugh by his laughter, and the atmosphere in the theater finally returned to normal. It's just that Kevin can't laugh anymore at this time.
On stage, the special effects were removed, and the demon king said something according to the lines, "I didn't expect there to be something that can make me happy now." "Ah, so be it, although your strength still disappoints me, at least your eloquence amuses me. "Then I'll let you live a few more years......"
After the demon king finished his lines, he drifted away. The brave man struggled to his feet and said some encouraging words to the other brave who were still lying on the ground, and then the narrator sounded, the music sounded, the curtain fell, and the whole stage play came to an end.
In a moment, all the stage actors walked out of the curtain and thanked everyone for watching in a burst of music. The audience was still a little unsatisfied, but at this time they all responded with warm applause. Although the whole stage play is a little flawed, it is still passable.
Kevin couldn't help but feel a little emotional, for him who was born as a bard, it was undoubtedly a huge success to make more audiences happy with the pace. Kevin can only boil up one tavern at most, and there are a thousand times more people than a tavern.
"Why, you seem to be a little ......" Raven could sense Kevin's emotions and guess a little.
"After all, I used to be a bard, and the stage was very important to me. Kevin also admitted it calmly.
As he spoke, everyone had already begun to leave the stage one after another. Kevin sat in the back row, and when he left the field, he was the first to walk, the air outside was fresh, and the night was charming, which also made people feel comfortable.
There are a lot of vendors on the roadside, selling fruits, tea, and even toys, and the roller swords that have just been blown into the sky in the theater, and here they are lined up, 5 silver coins a piece. Wooden, painted with gold lacquer, it looks really powerful at first glance.
During the day, there are sheriffs and roadside stalls, but at night they are much more relaxed, and there are many fewer vehicles on the streets. Crowds wander around among the vendors, chatting and enjoying the nightlife.
The crow came out of the suitcase, stood on Kevin's shoulder, and walked around the night market casually. In recent years, the food culture has also developed rapidly, and due to the large number of parrots entering the society, the food that parrots love to eat is naturally an important business opportunity. In addition to barbecue and toast, there are also more roasted insects on the street. Of course, if people want to eat, it is not impossible.
Kevin bought a roasted cricket for the crow, insisted on not putting any ingredients, the crow was full of praise for eating, bowed his head and recommended to Kevin: "It's really good, it's fluffy and crispy, can you taste it too?"
Kevin still shook his head, took a round of barbecue, and chewed slowly.
Suddenly, the crowd began to gather in front of them, and there seemed to be a quarrel in the middle. Kevin was curious and idle, so he squeezed in to watch.
Squeezed in and took a look, only to realize that it was not a quarrel, it was just a bard squirting. However, this time the situation is a little special, and one of the parties is still a woman.
"How can a mere demon king be compared to Rex?" said the bard, "in terms of destructive power, the demon king has taken down a city, and if nothing else, the current forbidden spell can do it." And the hundred million miles of ice that Rex used in the early days was enough to slaughter a world. How can the mere demon king compare to him?"
"Jokes, they are not the setting of a book, how can they be compared?" the bard said, "You can only compare the character positioning! The Demon King is completely invincible, equal to the apex of everything." And Rex is getting stronger, and although he is invincible in the end, he doesn't reach the top because he is still getting stronger. So it is equivalent to that one has reached the fixed point, and the other is just constantly approaching the apex, of course, the demon king is stronger. ”
"Nonsense," the bard retorted, "Rex is invincible in the world, and the reason why that demon king is invincible is only because he didn't meet Rex!"
"In fact, the connotation of Rex's biography is only equivalent to the first half of the Demon King's life. By the time Rex reached his complete invincibility, the book was over. And when the Demon King reaches complete invincibility, the book begins. From this point of view, of course, the Demon King is stronger. ”
"Then how do you explain that Rex is far more destructive than the Demon King?" the bard was unwilling.
The two sides engaged in fierce mutual spraying, each presenting facts and reasoning, which is quite civilized. But as time went on, the male bard stumbled more and more, and the sweat on his forehead grew.
Finally, the bard raised her arms and shouted, "Everyone said, who is the best?"
"The Demon King is powerful!" "The Demon King is invincible!" Everyone was encouraged, after all, there were relatively few female bards, and they were sweet-looking, and what she said was indeed more reasonable, and the surrounding people almost overwhelmingly supported her.
The male bard blushed, and many people were already booing him off the stage. But he still insisted on shouting: "You are blind, you just look at her as a girl, you are not pursuing the truth at all!"
"Cut. The crowd shushed again.
The male bard waved his hand: "No matter how powerful the demon king is, he is evil, and Rex is righteous." How can justice be defeated by evil? This is the real principle!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone quieted down, as if there was some truth?
The male bard then threw out a burden and actually took out a set of women's clothes: "I know that you think the other party is a woman, so you favor her." But it's not right, it's not fair!"
"For the sake of fairness......! I...... I'm wearing women's clothes too!" the bard roared out through gritted teeth, his face flushed.
There was a howl all around, and the sound of commotion was endless. The male bard hesitated for a moment, then put the women's dress on his body, and although his face was flushed, his expression was still very serious. I have to say that he wore women's clothes, and he was unexpectedly good-looking.
"Oh~" The people around howled again, and even raised their hands in cheer.
Kevin was dumbfounded, could it be that he had been away from the country for too long and couldn't keep up with the times?
Over there, the bard also seemed overwhelmed, probably not expecting to be defeated in this way. Standing awkwardly for a while, he lowered his head and squeezed out of the crowd.
Seeing that the other party had retreated, the winner of women's clothing hurriedly took off his women's clothes and looked embarrassed at everyone. Everyone kept heckling: "Wear it for a while." "Afraid of what?"
Kevin squeezed out of the crowd a little sluggishly, and the three views were impacted, and he didn't ease up for a while. When I turned my head to look, I saw a person sitting on the side, holding a notebook in his hand and hurriedly recording it.
Kevin walked over: "...... you are"
The man looked up: "Ah, I'm the editor of the website. By the way, I will record some news, and tomorrow I will make a web page. ”
"What's the title?" Kevin asked casually.
"Moral degradation, men openly wear women's clothes, and the people around them actually applaud in unison?" replied the man.
"Then if you feel morally degraded, why don't you stop them?" Kevin asked again.
The man was stunned, and then laughed dryly: "I'm also eating with a mouthful, don't be so serious." ”
While talking, this man didn't dare to talk to Kevin, so he picked up his notebook and hurried away.
The raven stood on Kevin's shoulder and shook his head, "You humans are getting more and more incomprehensible. ”
"I can't read it either," Kevin smiled wryly, "but at least I understand one thing, and that's if you're serious, you'll lose." ”
"Could the bard, a man and a woman, be a routine, maybe they already knew each other?"
"Maybe," Kevin replied, "it's a bit abrupt for the man to suddenly take out his women's clothes, but it's not easy for them to eat this bowl of rice, and don't talk nonsense, not to mention that there is no evidence." ”
"Why don't I follow them?" the crow was bored, and as soon as he finished speaking, he flew off Kevin's shoulder. Kevin followed him.
The crowd on the street gradually dispersed, and a person hummed a small tune and walked back, in the end it was still safe in the capital, if it was on the side of the kobolds, they basically had to walk with their hands on the hilt of their swords.
A person staggered back to the academy and walked to the door of his dormitory, when suddenly the lights in the next room were bright. At this time, it was late at night, and the school was still in the summer vacation, so there should be no one else in the dormitory except Kevin. Did any of the other teachers come back early?
With a creak, the door of the dormitory next door was opened, and a female mage in a black robe walked out slowly: "Kevin, you came back quite late." ”
Kevin was startled, couldn't help but look at her face carefully, and took a step back in surprise: "It's you!"
"What's wrong?" the other party leaned against the door frame sewitchingly, "I don't recognize me when I put on my clothes?"
Kevin calmed down a little: "That...... At that time we all thought you were a corpse, so ......"
"It's okay, I don't care about that. The mage smiled, and took a step closer, and Kevin felt the aroma rushing to his nose.
"You're ...... now," Kevin kept his composure. The person in front of him was the "female corpse" that Sain had recited, and when Bradley slashed it with a tomahawk, he was suddenly resurrected for a short time, and blessed the ambassador with a state spell, so that Kevin and the others could escape. After Kevin returned to China, she naturally brought back to China as an important material.
"Actually, I've lost all my memories," lamented the mage, "and I can't even remember my own name." ”
"Really?" Kevin asked, "and when did your memories begin?"
"From the moment I was carried out of the freezer," replied the mage, "it was as if I woke up and was carried on my back, and my body was very cold and naked. My instincts told me it was best not to move, so I kept playing dead. It was obvious that someone was attacking the place, so I had to make a move. ”
"What kind of spell is that?" Kevin asked.
"I don't know," replied the mage, "my spells seem to be instinctive, as if I were born with them, and I can't name them." Later people in the academy told me that it was necromancy. Probably. ”
The female mage turned her head and looked Kevin up and down a few times, "Well, you just ate barbecue?"
"yes, how do you know?" asked Kevin.
"Necromancers manipulate corpses, and what people eat is actually corpses, and I can manipulate the meat in your stomach as long as I want," the female mage smiled and stretched out her slender right hand, "Just touch your little belly." ”
Kevin subconsciously took a step back.
"Just kidding, don't mind. The mage smiled and withdrew her hand.
"Who are you now?" Kevin asked again, "School teacher?"
"How can I be qualified to be a teacher," the female mage said with a bitter face, "My freedom is restricted, and I can't go out, it's just an experimental material." It's nice to stay here. ”
Kevin nodded: "That's right, after all, the identity of the necromancer is too sensitive." Do you have a name now?"
"Fran," replied the mage, "they all call me that. ”
