Chapter 229: The Plague King Greets Everyone

On the dark stage.
The tightly shut curtains slowly opened, and the magic spotlights on both sides lit up.
A tall and handsome man dressed in a bold and unrestrained island-style costume somersaulted a few times onto the stage.
The light shone on him alone, illuminating his white teeth and pure smile.
A young man’s voice was heard,
“The wind of the island brought me to the beach.
“She said go out to sea, young man!
“Go to sea, sailor!
“There are treasures in the sea that you dream of. “There is a girl in the sea who you will love at first sight.
“I said no to Wind of the Island.
“I don’t have my dreams in the sea.
“There is no home in the sea.
“The wind of the island leads me to the cliff.
“She said fly, young man!
“Fly, warrior!
“In the sky is the freedom you chase day and night. “The sky has the courage you’ve been longing for.
“I said no to Wind of the Island.
“The sky doesn’t have my dreams.
“The sky is not my home.
“The wind of the island brought me to the mountain.
“She said to cultivate, young man!
“Cultivate, chief!
“The mountain was filled with the tranquillity of a paradise.
“The mountain was filled with the fragrance of spring seeds and autumn storage.
“I said no to Wind of the Island. “Although the mountain is my hometown.
“The mountain is not my dream in this life. “The wind of the island led me to the shaman’s hut.
“The shaman asked me”The young prince.
“Where are you going?” At this moment.
The chanting stopped.
Only the male lead on the stage stared into the distance affectionately and sang loudly,
“I said I want to leave the beautiful and rich island of Pantura. I said I wanted to leave the embrace of my strict father and loving mother.
“I want to go to the hundreds of cities and thousands of countries on the land and walk through every inch of soil outside the island.
“Wind of the island and my parents, please don’t worry.
“When the traveller returns from a thousand sails, I will be a well-known bard!”
The curtains were quickly pulled open.
A few actors dressed in aboriginal clothing rushed forward.
The two actors who played the male lead’s parents hugged him exaggeratedly and performed a difficult dance.
In the end, under the good wishes of everyone and the narration.
The young prince of the island, Duradin, left Pantura and went to the vast land to learn the skills of a bard alone.
During this period of time.
He was deceived because of the language barrier, ridiculed because of his strange way of dressing, and harassed because of his handsome appearance. However, none of this interrupted his passion to become a great bard.
This was almost a one-man show for the male lead.
Other than the narration and the passersby, he met from time to time.
The entire stage was filled with the male lead, who was the only one attracting the audience’s attention.
Even Matthew had to admit it.
Brandon might have a huge problem with his personal morals, but his acting skills were indeed superb.
His performance was extremely captivating.
A second ago.
The prince he played was still commenting on the various strange phenomena in the cities of the mainland, making a funny and sharp comment that was in line with his identity as an island aborigine. The audience burst into laughter.
In the next second.
However, he vividly portrayed the embarrassment of being cheated of all his money because he had mistakenly believed in a scammer and finally being forced to sleep on the streets and suffer from the wind and rain.
Some of the female audience members even started sobbing.
This situation was only alleviated when Duradin met the famous bard, Donald.
After that, the prince moved into Donald’s house and began to diligently learn the skills of a bard.
The first scene ended with a lame joke from the great bard, Donald.
The second scene was about to begin.
When the magic spotlight was pushed forward.
Matthew took a look and found that although the spotlights above the theatre were made of rails, they were not highly automated.
On every spotlight sat a bored Gnome.
They wore standard vests with steel wires hanging from their backs. They moved through the dense beams.
The magic spotlight was pushed by them. “As expected, as long as you put in the effort, you can find a solution.”
Matthew was surprised by the theatre’s design.
However, he thought about it.
If he were to put on such a production, he’d replace the goblins with ghosts.
At the same time…
He took the opportunity to observe the expressions of the audience. Everyone, including Lorraine, was watching very seriously.
That was true.
The entertainment industry in this world was far less developed than in Matthew’s previous life.
An opera of this level was already an extreme visual feast for people.
Matthew was captured by it too.
After the initial novelty.
He could also patiently enjoy the performances of the actors, as well as the dance that he could not understand but still felt a little charming.
On the stage.
The plot proceeded in an orderly manner. The second scene was as follows:
What the Prince of Island didn’t know was…
As soon as he left the beautiful island, a terrifying coup broke out on Pantura.
His second uncle colluded with the Naga and stabbed his father to death with a short dagger he got from the Naga.
After that, with the help of Naga, Second Uncle changed into his father’s appearance and successfully sat on the position of Chief of Pantura. He also took over his mother, who seemed to be unaware of this. However, Duradin’s second uncle was very different from his father.
The latter was generous and kind.
The former was cruel and vicious.
The tribe was soon thrown into chaos by him. He even openly communicated with the Nagas, who were originally enemies. The tribe was angry but did not dare to speak up.
Very quickly..
