Cultural Invasion In Different World

Chapter 349: Chapter 349 – New Chapter

Wanting to meet the movie’s screenwriter?

That was one of the questions Madam Schroder heard the most since the screening of ‘Léon: The Demon’ and ‘Hachiko: A Dog’s Tale.’

“The screenwriter is currently located in the distant Norland. Even if I am to invite him to come to Farucci, the journey will take over a month. Your Majesty Klund, I think you should wait till Norland’s teleportation formation opens up. At that time, I will personally send a letter of invitation to him.”

Having answered the same question multiple times already, Madam Schroder was able to skillfully deal with Klund III’s inquiry.

Naturally, the ‘him’ mentioned by Madam Schroder was none other than Joshua. Even though Joshua had stated that the movies’ screenplays were all adaptations and the true authors weren’t him, Madam Schroder was more willing to believe it as an evasion tactic from Joshua.

“Norland. The distance to reach that country needed to be measured with such a long period of time; oh that is truly lamentable news.”

Klund III continued with his performance. From this, one could tell how good of a mood he was in today. Else, he wouldn’t display such an impromptu performance on such a setting.

“Karana, pioneer who brought movies to Farucci, I need you to tell me this; is it possible for our Farucci to create our own movies?”

Although Klund III was still acting, the question he asked was also the topic the people present in the ball were most concerned about.

Madam Schroder was able to clearly sense the surroundings becoming quiet after the king asked that question.

All the nobles and dramatists from all over Farucci and even the performers present had turned their attention to Madam Schroder.

They all wanted to obtain the answer to the king’s question.

“‘Léon: The Demon’ was the first time my Black Swan Theatrical Troupe participated in the filming of a movie. It was also the opportunity for Black Swan Theatrical Troupe to learn filmmaking,” slowly said Madam Schroder.

The Black Swan Theatrical Troupe was the only theatrical troupe from Farucci that had participated in the filming of a movie. It ensured the Black Swan Theatrical Troupe would be in the forefront of the future movie undertaking.

“In other words, Karana, you and your Black Swan Theatrical Troupe had grasped the method of filmmaking?”

Excitement filled Klund’s voice.

“In our Farucci’s thousands years of history, countless grand scripts and writings were created. Karana... I deeply desire to be able to portray them to the masses in the form of movies.”

Klund’s words were very impassioned. Had it not been for the fact that the majority of the people present in the ball were aged playwrights and artists, the young performers might even raise their wine glasses to praise their king and kingdom.

“That is also what I am looking forward to, Your Majesty Klund,” said Madam Schroder, “I too desire to have the scripts written by our Farucci’s playwrights become movies. However, movies are not that easy to create.”

“Do not fear to try, Karana. Your Black Swan Theatrical Troupe is one of the most talented theatrical troupes I’ve ever seen. Especially your daughter Gallolie, in a hundred years... she would definitely become a person who left her name in history,” said Klund III.

“Your Majesty, thank you for your high praises. I will definitely not fail to live up to your expectations.”

Nevertheless, Madam Schroder still accepted the heavy responsibility entrusted by Klund III.

In truth, Madam Schroder knew very well the differences between stage plays and movies. Be it the performers, the set or the music, Farucci would be able to find the most outstanding people for those roles. But, apart from those, movies needed ‘camera angles!’

Camera angles were an essential factor for a good movie.

Whether it be ‘Hachiko: A Dog’s Tale’ or ‘Léon: The Demon,’ many of the scenes that left a deep impression on Madam Schroder were filmed from outstanding camera angles established by the director and camera operators.

Those two professions do not exist in Farucci. As such, Madam Schroder would need to nurture them from scratch.

“Well then, Karana, I hope that you and your Black Swan Theatrical Troupe would open up an all new era for Farucci!”

After leaving those words, Klund III finally finished his conversation with Madam Schroder.

The Blackwood Elf who has been standing beside Madam Schroder the entire time heaved a small sigh of relief.

“Madam Schroder, forgive my rudeness... I truly feel that your king is different from ordinary humans,” whispered the Blackwood Elf Monica.

Although she has not interacted with many humans, she had never seen one so on edge like King Klund III.

“Different? What if I am to tell you that His Majesty Klund III’s sexual orientation is the same gender?”

Madam Schroder suddenly gave another explosive news to the Blackwood Elf. Monica stood there completely shocked.

Shortly after Klund III left, Madam Schroder heaved a sigh of relief. But, before she had the time to take a sip from her wine glass, the dramatists that had been paying attention to her and Klund III’s conversation immediately flocked over.

After watching the movies, Farucci’s dramatists all hoped for their works to be brought onto the stage in the form of movies.

Monica had noticed that Madam Schroder was sighing signs of exhaustion. Nevertheless, Madam Schroder maintained the proper attitude of a Grand Duchess and started chatting with the playwrights.

The ball lasted for a long time. To the others, Madam Schroder was still the high-spirited founder of the Black Swan Theatrical Troupe.

But, once the ball ended, once Madam Schroder and the Blackwood Elf Monica entered a carriage to return to their residence, Madam Schroder finally revealed her exhausted look. Seeing that, Monica realized that she was hanging there with pure willpower the entire time.

“I will be succeeding my husband. It is not only for the sake of our daughter. It is also for the sake of the alliance my husband made with you all.”

Madam Schroder felt the gaze from the Blackwood Elf. She waved her hand to express for her to not worry.

“Although it is not an easy task to firmly grasp the power my husband had, you do not have to worry. After all, I’ve been around handling things for all these years,” Madam Schroder spoke with a deemphasizing tone.

“My apologies Madam Schroder, I do not know much about humanity’s power struggles,” said the Blackwood Elf, “But, I thank you for everything you’re doing for us.”

“No, I should be the one thanking you all for protecting my daughter.”

After saying those words, Madam Schroder looked to a pile of scripts placed on the side of the carriage. Those scripts were all handed to her by the playwrights and dramatists on the ball.

They were hoping that she would read them and make them into movies.

Madam Schroder picked up the scripts and started skimming through them in succession. The majority of them were satires and court dramas. Those were the most popular sort of stage plays in Farucci.

“Although I am fond of many of Farucci’s theatrical works, the amount of truly great writings are few and far between...”
