Bringing Culture to a Different World Chapter 211

Chapter 211

Kingdom of Farucci. Blackwood Manor.

Having just finished taking a ‘selfie,’ Gallolei placed the ‘camera’ Joshua gifted her beneath her pillow. Then, she laid on the bed and stared at the ceiling.

Gallolei did not close her eyes to sleep like what she should be doing. The Mage Forum’s interface appeared before her eyes.

Ever since she learned how to use the Mage Forum, Gallolei would be up on the Mage Forum for a long time before sleeping every night.

“Young miss, my teacher told me that night time is the most important period of time for living beings to grow. If you stay up late every night, it will cause burden to your body.”

Gallolei’s elven bodyguard appeared from the shadows. With a look of worry on her face, the Blackwood elf looked at the Black Swan lying on the bed, moving her fingers in midair nonstop and occasionally smiling strangely.

Before going to Norland to partic.i.p.ate in the World Expo, Gallolei will be deep asleep at this time every night. She would sleep to prepare for the next day’s acting practices. But, ever since she gained the magic network, her habit of sleeping early and waking up early disappeared...

“It’s alright. I’ll go to sleep after I finish reading this post. Oh, ‘The Piper Tucker and the Lost Elven Youth’ seemed to have been updated.”

As Gallolei skimmed through the Mage Forum’s Motionless Library, she noticed that a popular work has released its latest chapter.

“Eh? Now...? Shouldn’t the next update be tomorrow?”

After the elven bodyguard heard that news, excitement appeared in her sleepy-sounding voice. She waved her fingers and opened up her own magic network interface and signed onto the Mage Forum.

But, the moment she tapped open the Motionless Library, she realized that something was wrong.

“Wait... young miss, it’s very late now! If you don’t go to sleep now, the lack of sleep will definitely burden your body!”

“Let me finish reading this chapter.”

Gallolei ignored the urges of her bodyguard. After she tapped open the latest chapter released onto the Motionless Library, she curled up under her blanket.

“Young miss...”

At this moment, Flay felt completely helpless. With Gallolei hiding under her blanket, Flay was the only person ‘remaining’ in the room.

Thus, after a two second long mental struggle, the Blackwood elf tapped open the Motionless Library’s novel ‘The Piper Tucker and the Lost Elven Youth.’

She had no idea how she came across this... philosophical work. But, after she finished reading the first chapter, she was completely captivated by the novel.

That said, she would cover her mouth with her hand whenever she reads the novel. Her heartbeat will also accelerate rapidly.

When the Blackwood elf started to read the new chapter, she heard the sound of someone approaching the door to Gallolei’s room.

The door k.n.o.b turned. The Blackwood elf immediately disappeared into the shadows...

“Gallolei!”

The door to Gallolei’s room was pushed open. Gallolei’s head peeked out from her blanket. She looked to the door and saw her mother, Madam Schroder, standing there.

“Mother... do you need anything?”

Gallolei sat up on her bed and tidied her slightly messy hair.

In a short few seconds, she had transformed from a ‘net-addicted girl’ who was planning to stay up all night long into a ‘sleeping beauty’ startled awake in mid sleep.

Before her mother, Gallolei must maintain the most basic form of gracefulness that the Flower of Farucci should have.

“Tidy up your luggage. You’ll be going to the Blackwood Forest tonight to receive the Blessing Ceremony from the elves.”

A faint amount of magic power appeared on Madam Schroder’s hand. Her magic power activated the originium crystal embedded with illumination magic that was placed by the door. The moment that originium crystal started s.h.i.+ning, magic power started to fill up the other originium crystals embedded with illumination magic in the room.

“To...night? Wasn’t it supposed to be... the day after tomorrow?”

Gallolei rubbed her eyes and took some time to get used to the light in her room.

The Duchy of Blackwood and the elves of the Blackwood Forest had a pact of peaceful coexistence. Included in the pact was a clause that the Blackwood Elves would send out their most outstanding younger generation’s elf to protect the Blackwood Duchy’s heir, Gallolei.

Because of that, Gallolei gained a very important and priest-like status among the Blackwood Elves.

“Yes, it’s tonight. Flay, please inform Elder Safran to look after her.”

Madam Schroder’s order was still unyielding as always. She looked beside Gallolei’s bed and the elven bodyguard revealed herself from the shadows to nod to Madam Schroder.

Even though Gallolei was feeling very confused, she had no choice but to abide by her mother’s order. Thus, she immediately got out of bed, went to her wardrobe and began changing her clothes. While she’s doing that, Flay begins to pack up spare clothes for her.

Half an hour later. Gallolei had finished getting ready. Under Madam Schroder’s watchful eyes, she entered a horse carriage.

“I kept feeling that something seems amiss.”

Gallolei looked out the carriage’s window and looked to Madam Schroder standing by the manor’s entrance.

There were no servants with her. Furthermore, the only people traveling with Gallolei was her bodyguard Flay and the carriage driver. This wasn’t normal for a Grand d.u.c.h.ess.

“Perhaps this is a request made by Elder Safran?”

Gallolei’s elven bodyguard originally thought that she would only return to her homeland a couple days later. She didn’t expect to be able to return to the Blackwood Forest this soon. To her, being able to return sooner was something joyous.

“Let’s hope... that is the case.”

Gallolei sat back down on her seat. An originium crystal Madam Schroder handed her before she left was present in her hand.

This originium crystal was an orignium crystal that contained the movie ‘Léon: The Demon.’ Before they left for Farucci, Joshua had given Madam Schroder multiple originium crystals that contained the movie ‘Léon: The Demon.’

Madam Schroder has safeguarded those originium crystals like they were treasures. After all, with how outstanding the movie ‘Léon: The Demon’ was, those originium crystals were destined to become treasures that one cannot purchase even with gold.

But, before she left, Madam Schroder handed one such originium crystal to Gallolei.

“Some time is needed to reach the border of the Blackwood Forest. Young miss, you should lay down and rest up...”

“There’s no need.”

Gallolei began to continue skimming through the new posts on the Mage Forum. When she tapped into her camp, she suddenly recalled something.

“Flay... I remember that there’s a Bra.s.s Dragon dwelling in the Blackwood Forest, right?!”

Gallolei picked up her ‘camera.’ She stared at the Blackwood Elf across her with a look of expectation.

“Oh... I don’t think... Elder Safran will allow young miss to see that dragon.”

The elven bodyguard realized what her master wanted to do. If she was to post a picture of her together with a dragon onto her camp, the amount of people paying attention to her camp will increase many folds again.
