Throne of Magical Arcana

The Kingdom of Holm, Pephos County, the small city of Samara.

At the end of the golden moon, the night began to advance quietly. The time when the setting sun dyed everything red has become dim and gloomy. However, Pephos is one of the top three prosperous and prosperous places in the Kingdom of Holm, a small town. Street lamps and electric poles were erected along the streets of Samara, and the magic crystal lamp began to bloom bright and clear light under the connection of wires, repelling the darkness from its own envelope.

Citizens of the small town took to the streets in twos and threes, and walked towards the only square—Baron Bechiger Square, where there was a magic radio installed in the city hall, and whenever night fell, it would make a "loud sound" , Pass on radio programs such as "The Voice of Mystery" to everyone.

As there are more and more broadcasting channels, the citizens are also caught in the trouble of choosing. Although "The Voice of Mystery" is very good and is my first choice, there is no program that can satisfy everyone's tastes, so everyone has their own dislikes. A certain "Sound of Mystery" column, but unfortunately the magic radio does not belong to me, and there is no way to "change the channel" when encountering similar programs.

"We must work hard, save money, and go to 'Elemental Gift' to buy a magic radio!" Banus, a young man in a jacket, said with his fists clenched.

The companion next to him was jealous and yearning: "I heard that in big cities such as Rentat, anyone who subscribes to a newspaper for a year can get a magic radio as a gift!"

"Really? It's much cheaper? Those who sell newspapers are not afraid of bankruptcy?" Banus asked incredulously, this is a good thing he has never heard of.

His companion was a big boy with freckles. He cut his hair and said: "I heard that these newspapers are run by the radio station itself, mainly to increase the coverage of magic radio. Her Majesty also signed and promulgated a According to the "Regulations on Promoting the Development of Broadcasting" submitted by the parliament, every time a radio station sends out a magic radio, it will be able to obtain a certain range of financial subsidies and tax relief, and..."

His voice gradually deepened, and he pretended to be mysterious: "I heard that behind this is the promotion of the Magic Council. They give huge subsidies to the radio station in the form of advertisements, so the radio station will basically not lose money..."

"Magician?" Banus suddenly became excited, and then suddenly realized, "By the way, they developed the magic radio. The more they sell, the more they will naturally earn!"

"Of course, you think magicians who study the nature of the world are fools? They are much smarter than you!" The big boy laughed.

As for the political significance, they don't understand it at all.

Banus suddenly gasped: "Ali, how do you know these things? The 'Voice of Mystery' didn't talk about it!"

It was only then that he felt strange, why did his companion who had the same knowledge as himself suddenly become a polymath?

The big boy Ali hooked his fingers, and his voice was small but very proud: "I was told this by someone else, a noble lady from Rentat!"

"The noble lady of Rentat? How could you know the noble lady of Rentat!" Banus was completely stunned. For people from small cities like them, even with the vision brought by the "voice of mystery" Open, but he still has awe from the heart for the nobles in the small town, thinking that they are unattainable, that their life is luxurious and enjoyable, and that they are in a different world from himself and others.

Compared with the nobles in the capital Rentat, the nobles in the small town are nothing! If the nobles of Rentat are swans, and the nobles of the capital of Pephos County are white swans, then the nobles of the small town are at best ugly ducklings-this term comes from the "Voice of Mystery", and the greatest hobby of these nobles is chasing Renta The unique fashion trends imitate the dress, daily behavior and entertainment of the capital's aristocrats.

The aristocrats in the small town have such a mentality, and the ordinary people such as Banus are naturally more serious, and they think of themselves as "hillies" in their hearts.

Ali laughed and said, "Pen pal, she is my pen pal!"

"Pen pal, what's that?" Banus' horse had a blank look on his face.

"I told you to learn more characters, but you didn't listen. After the establishment of the postal service, some newspapers launched a letter-writing and making friends activity, allowing people in two different cities to become friends by writing letters to each other. Communication, so called pen pals."

Ali enthusiastically introduced to Banus, "Think about it, maybe we won't be able to leave this small town in our lifetime, but we can have sincere friends in Rentat, Pefos, and other major cities. Strange and familiar friends, friends who have never met but communicated with friends in the heart through text, what a wonderful thing..."

He looked intoxicated and obviously liked this form of pen pal.

"Sounds great!" Banus opened his mouth wide, looking infected.

Only then did he deeply understand the importance of writing. The biggest difference between himself and Ali was that his father was a clerk's entourage, so he learned writing and then taught it to him, but he could only rely on Ali occasionally explained a few words, but he couldn't read the newspaper at all!

"This kind of communication is the most sincere way of communication between people, without the bondage of interests, without entanglement of lust, without looking at each other's faces, and without caring about other people's identities." Ali looked like the host of the "Voice of Mystery" psychological program "So, what I said before is from that pen pal. She is a nobleman of Rentat, has her own magic radio, can listen to other channels freely, and can also get news from other nobles. Of course not would lie about something like this."

"You kid, okay, you actually hooked up with a noble lady!" Banus thumped Ali's back hard.

Ali protested: "What is hooking up? We are pure pen pals!"

"Do you dare to say that you haven't fantasized about her? What kind of noble lady is she?" Banus glanced at Ali. I don't know what kind of personality you have?

Ali's expression softened: "Her tone of letter has always been very gentle, she is definitely a well-educated girl, and after knowing my identity, she didn't discriminate against me, she answered all my questions, and would Share interesting things in life with me... Her handwriting is slender, and she should be very similar to herself..."

Seeing Ali's expression and listening to her description, Banus gradually calmed down his excitement and couldn't help but said, "Ali, you have to remember that she is a nobleman, while you are just an ordinary commoner."

"I know, we are a pure pen pal relationship!" Ali waved his hand, indicating that he understood, then changed the subject, talking endlessly about the Rentat scene described by the "pen pal" to himself, and bringing the ever-changing The changes are more exaggerated.

"It's a great big city, with such a kind noble lady, and such a shocking change and life..." Banus was shocked. Although the "Voice of Mystery" mentioned similar changes, due to limited time, there was absolutely no such change. Ali explained in such detail, "Moreover, only big cities can subscribe to a newspaper for a year and send a magic radio!"

"Yeah, I must go to Rentat to see!" Ali also yearned for it.

Banus thought about it, and suddenly excitedly said: "Let's go to a big city to subscribe to newspapers! The round-trip magic steam train fare plus one year's newspaper money is at most half of the magic radio, and it will save a lot!"

"No, similar things happened before, so now only people with the status of citizens of big cities can enjoy this kind of gift." Ali sighed bitterly.

This, this is discrimination! Banus completely forgot his admiration and longing for the big city just now, and blurted out: "Go to your X big city!"

The two walked forward while discussing, and gradually arrived at Baron Bechiger Square.

"Today is the opening ceremony of the Rentat Music Festival. I wonder what special program 'Sound of Mystery' will be?" Ali said expectantly.

Banus nodded, just about to speak, but suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Magic, magician!"

In the sky above the square, there is a young magician wearing a long black dress floating. Silver rays of light spread from his hands, connecting with the strange "curtain" in the center of the square, and around the "curtain", there are six or seven The person who keeps taking out items and arranging them is obviously a magician too!

"Really, really a magician!" Ali stuttered in surprise.

Then, the two became excited. Except for street magic, it is really rare to see a magician cast a spell at such a close distance, so they squeezed into the center of the square, trying to get closer. The citizens who came to the square had the same mentality as them!

"What happened? Why did Mr. Magician appear here?" Seeing that he couldn't squeeze in, Ali hurriedly asked the citizens in front of him.

A commoner who was good at inquiring about things and was willing to show off answered loudly in front: "It is said that the opening opera of the Rentat Music Festival will be broadcast live!"

"Straight, live broadcast?" Both Banus and Ali opened their mouths wide in shock. They had heard the term "live broadcast" in the "Voice of Mystery", but they never thought that their small town would encounter it!

Seeing a screen and the surrounding magic circle gradually take shape, the magician floating in mid-air began to connect to the "artificial planet" in orbit to make final adjustments.

"Sir, are you okay?" asked the magician arranged below.

The mid-level magician nodded lightly: "You have done a good job, this is a good opportunity to show the new style of our magicians."

"Hmph, the Alto Music Festival is only broadcast live at the Alto Municipal Square, how stingy!"

The goal of our magic parliament is that cities in the four countries of the Straits and the coastal corridors of the North Land with parliamentary local organizations can see the "live broadcast" through satellites!

I like to write this kind of chapters that reflect the lives of ordinary people, but some friends may not like it, so, more than 2,900 words, don't add a few nonsense to 3,000 and waste everyone's money.
