Lin Ke looked at the girl lying on the ground in front of him, sowhat incredulously asking, "Is this even possible?"
"Little Lin Ke, you’ve asked that for the eighth ti now!"
Fulon tapped Lin Ke on his little head.
Lin Ke rubbed his head, looked at the girl Sophie in front of him, and then looked up.
The reason for his shock was simple.
This maid nad Sophie actually achieved self-enlightennt?!
No, according to ancient language, it should be "like a firefly emitting the first ray of light that pierces the darkness", which is summarized as... self-enlightennt.
Ove just told him that the maid’s performance was much like so ancient people.
In ancient tis, there was no saying of bloodline awakening at all.
Everyone simply tested whether you had elental affinity for wood, earth, wind, water, fire, thunder, light, darkness, etc.
Test for elental affinity, then use "dread" light magic to test spiritual power.
If suitable, you could be a noble mage, if not, obediently go be a warrior or a commoner.
It wasn’t until Andrew appeared that all sorts of professions sprung up, thriving like flowers in bloom.
For example, a person with a muddy bloodline in ancient tis had low elental affinity for water and earth, unsuitable to be a mage.
But in modern tis, after awakening their bloodline, they would know their bloodline is "mud", so they could take up professions like Swamp Walker.
If that didn’t work, they could beco a scholar, slowly researching the most suitable profession for themselves.
So that’s why the profession system is powerful, all-inclusive, and all-embracing.
But actually, in ancient tis before Andrew appeared, there were people who enlightened their bloodlines.
So people, in certain special states, would awaken, then enter the Soul Space and see their own bloodline.
But such people were very rare, even in the Endless Plane.
Ove once said that soone achieved self-enlightennt in extre anger, and then in the process of sliding tackle with their eyes closed, was eaten by a magical beast tiger.
So even when people achieved self-enlightennt, others didn’t know, because there were too few cases for research.
Ove said that even in his centuries, he doesn’t know one.
Or rather, he’s only once heard soone describe the state and the aura they emit when a person achieves self-enlightennt.
But why did this maid Sophie in front of him achieve self-enlightennt?!
Could it be because she was too excited and thrilled singing??
Too excited and thrilled can also achieve self-enlightennt?
Then wouldn’t that an that even when...
"Is this even possible?" Lin Ke couldn’t help but blurt out again.
"Ninth ti." Fulon covered her face, then ignored her own son, and continued to watch the performance.
"Tsk." Antova glanced disdainfully at Lin Ke as if he were an idiot, then also continued to focus on the performance below.
For her, enlightennt or not didn’t matter; those commoners strived for enlightennt to beco professionals and enter the nobility.
But Antova was originally nobility, so she didn’t care about these things. The performance below was much more interesting.
And Lin Ke still kept looking at Sophie.
This person was his follower.
Confird.
Why?
Because Ove told him that anyone who achieves "self-enlightennt" has a "good" bloodline talent.
Initially, the task told him that for every profession he added, he would gain one more follower with a talent level of "good" or above who would never betray him.
Originally, Lin Ke thought he would wait to see who among them perford well and then give them a free enlightennt opportunity.
Then let them experint with Lin Ke’s profession combinations.
Like actors or singers.
Good actors and singers might have a better understanding of those professional traits, thus enhancing fusion rates.
Unexpectedly, the system task gave Lin Ke a surprise.
"Teacher, how long does self-enlightennt take?"
Lin Ke asked the sky.
"I don’t know..."
Ove didn’t have much research on this because it had an elent of chance, not worth studying.
Alright... Lin Ke circled around Sophie, then looked at Butler Billy beside him: "Uncle Billy, is this Sophie the personal maid I dismissed before?"
"Yes, Young Master." Butler Billy bowed.
Lin Ke rubbed his chin.
Sophie now doesn’t even need to take up the profession of Scholar; she can directly take up the Singer role Lin Ke envisioned.
At the sa ti, a one thousand gold coins’ enlightennt fee was saved.
If the system was so generous to have all his followers achieve self-enlightennt, he could save several thousand gold coins.
One copper coin equates to four or five RMB,
One gold coin is four or five hundred.
Saving several thousand gold coins is equivalent to saving hundreds of thousands.
Of course, the purchasing power, exchange rates, etc., are different, so that’s not how it’s calculated.
But overall, self-enlightennt saves money!
"Uncle Billy, starting tomorrow, Sophie will completely leave the castle, fully joining the Azanen Theater Troupe."
Lin Ke directly instructed.
Such a talent destined to beco a professional shouldn’t waste ti being a maid, surely a follower, what matters is their strength.
And Antova’s ears moved slightly without reacting, while Billy directly bowed and accepted.
In Billy’s view, Lin Ke, even if he wanted a maid, even if he wanted to replace the entire maid squad with muscle-bound male servants, he would agree.
Because he knew too well how much his fiery-tempered old master adored this eldest son of his.
"Let’s continue watching the performance then."
Lin Ke knew that this introverted old man Butler Billy actually also liked watching performances.
For example, the fact that Madam Antova and Fulon were here was also a result of Butler Billy’s strong suggestions.
The performance continued, but Lin Ke’s mind was already drifting among the traits combination for the profession of Singer.
Hmm, the traits definitely should include "singing", as well as the previously considered "tone" and "timbre", maybe also include "lody" traits.
Should the "unspoken rule" trait be included?
No, no need, every industry has unspoken rules, just that in the previous life, people only saw them in the entertainnt industry.
Hmm, for now, let’s see if these three traits are enough.
...
And on the stage, one short play after another, interspersed with singing and instruntal performances, easily stirred the emotions of the people in the territory.
Joy, sadness, anger...
Even after the performance ended, the people of the territory were still relishing it.
More than just the people of the territory.
Fulon had already transford into a drama chaser, eagerly asking Lin Ke about the plot after the Coiled Snake Ring.
Even the usually deep and reserved Madam Antova focused on Lin Ke when Fulon asked, wanting to hear so spoilers from him.
Chasing drama seems to be the essence of humanity, though spoiling isn’t.
So Lin Ke didn’t tell, saying that the third performance in the Wonderful Place five days later would reveal the plot.
Yes, five days.
Lin Ke planned to expand the Wonderful Place a bit, directly turning it into a large theater, then invite people from Parrot City.
By the way, invite so of the barons, lords, and pioneer knights of the Azanen Domain, and maybe so low-level professionals could also be invited.
Why?
Because Lin Ke wanted his first artificially nurtured professional to have more audiences and deeper insights.
For perforrs as professionals, the feedback might not be like scholars who get it from study and research.
Perhaps it cos from the number of viewers, the strength of performance techniques, the quality of singing, etc.
What if soone achieved self-enlightennt like Sophie did?
Moreover... it could make money!
ps: The Insomnia Emperor has already posted fan concept art of Lin Ke, Fulon, Knicks, and others in the reader circle. Friends who are interested can go take a look!
I must say, Fulon is really captivating (∩ᄑ_ᄑ)⊃
