◎If you dare to hit me, I will cry hard! ◎
For Tono, leaving the Lich Clan and joining the Demon King's Palace was not only a reunion with his brother, but also a restart of his ridiculous life of more than ten years.
After initially confirming that the demons in the Demon King's Palace were safe and trustworthy and giving up the idea of escaping with Tok, he had been thinking about his future plans for his demon life.
His fighting ability was not strong, and he had learned curse magic quite well, but they were all vicious curses, which were useless against the Demon King's Palace, which had the Demon King and his army and could easily defeat ten enemies on its own.
Therefore, when he finally found acting, an industry that he was particularly interested in, Tono was very happy. He put all his energy into compiling scripts and planning processes. When he encountered something he didn't understand, he took the accounting board and actively asked the demons in the Demon King's Palace, striving to do it perfectly and pass the Demon King in one go.
Unlike his taciturn brother, Tono is adept at acting cute and well-behaved, and is also good at interacting with others. With the bonus of being a cub, he quickly became familiar with the demons in the Demon King's Palace.
When they heard that he wanted to organize a performance of The Lion King, the demons enthusiastically offered various suggestions to help him improve the details of the performance and the management of the art troupe.
So Tok was shocked to find that his brother had inexplicably established good friendships with most of the demons in the Demon King's Palace. When they walked on the road, every demon passing by would greet him.
The original worry that Tono might have a hard time integrating into the Demon King's Palace suddenly disappeared. Tok expressionlessly rejected his brother's proposal to have dinner together - this kind of life where demons would wave or chat with him every few steps was a nightmare come true for him - in order to avoid saying hello to the demons, he would avoid his comrades in the team if he met them on the road!
In any case, by the time Tono finally wrote out the construction charter of the art troupe and gave it to the Demon King for approval, there were less than two months left before the Demon Feast was to be held.
...
...
Warren, who attached great importance to this, called the captain of Team 5, put a small stool for Tono next to him, and discussed the establishment, recruitment and management of the art troupe together.
"If you are worried about the stability of the art troupe in the early stages, perhaps you can allow members to work part-time?" The Nightmare Demon Sur spoke up actively, "Everyone can use their spare time to familiarize themselves with the script and participate in training. This will not only not affect their main work, but also allow many demons to experience the fun of acting."
When she said this, her eyes lit up and she looked eager to try.
Tono nodded.
At the Demon King's reminder, he had considered how to recruit members early on.
"I want to rent a room in the dormitory building as a training place for the art troupe, and start training on time every night after math class. But this requires a lot of energy to memorize the lines and figure out the movements, otherwise the performance on stage will be too poor and people will stop coming to watch."
"Does a performance require a lot of costumes and props?" Tiechui was more concerned about this issue. He emphasized, "If you need help from the textile team, forging team or construction team, you have to tell us at least ten days in advance, otherwise it may not be possible to make it in time."
Lille from the logistics team and Barlow from the farming team whispered to each other, discussing about working together to prepare some snacks such as dried meat, French fries and popcorn, and then selling them in the Lava Square. Everyone would definitely like to have some snacks while watching the show.
Arabella had no objection. She didn't mind watching a show, but she wasn't too keen on it either. She simply lowered her head and drank her lava slime bubble tea seriously, occasionally eating a flaming grape from the fruit bowl.
Since no one had any objections, Warren nodded happily, took out a golden medal from the drawer, and hung it on Tono's chest: "From today on, you are the head of the Demon King's Palace Art Troupe."
Tono blinked excitedly.
After some discussion, they advertised for recruitment among the teams and soon gathered the basic members of the art troupe: the troupe leader Tono, a familiar in charge of accounting and liaison with the logistics team, a Dark Iron Dwarf in charge of making performance props and liaison with the industrial team, and a Nightmare Demon in charge of publicity.
Except for Tono, the other demons are all working part-time and have no revenue yet, but they are all full of fighting spirit. They gather in the meeting room allocated to them by the Demon King to have serious discussions, enthusiastically select actors, and prepare for their first performance.
"We are planning to perform The Lion King," Tono said, his tail lowered in disappointment as he reported on the progress of his work. "We haven't tamed the monsters yet. Otherwise, I think it would be more interesting to combine the plots of The Lion King and Pokémon."
Warren choked and didn't know what to say. He could only praise dryly: "You will definitely become a good screenwriter in the future."
Not long after screening "The Lion King", he showed a second movie for the demons.
[Detective Pikachu
Quality R
Type Movie Card Pool Exclusive
Use this card to watch the movie "Detective Pikachu (Savian Demonic Version)"
Card introduction: Although the live-action movie version is much worse than the theatrical version... but who told you not to draw the TV series card pool? Don't be picky, just watch it! ]
After activating the card and watching the movie, Warren finally understood the usage principle of his SSR card [It's You].
"So what does the other world look like?" He became more and more curious. "There are countries where humans live alone, countries where humans and Pokémon live together, and countries where animals live alone? Why don't Simba and the others have Pokémon's superpowers? Is this power generated by combining with humans?"
The picture of the other world in his mind became even more unfathomable.
Compared to The Lion King, the plot of this movie is actually not that interesting, but its impact is much greater.
The most intuitive thing is that the demon soldiers began to frequently bring various magical beasts to the Demon King's Palace, and were committed to teaching them to be like Pokémon to assist in battle. The members of the forging team also began to study the manufacturing method of Poké Balls, hoping to put the magical beasts into Poké Balls and carry them with them.
So far, the only progress in this matter is that there are more than a dozen magic beast mounts in the military camp, and the roast chickens in the chicken coop are scared and run around when they see the magic soldiers - obviously, being hugged by the magic soldiers and shouting "Fire chickens! Spray flames!" is not a very pleasant experience.
"But since the card of [It's Decided to Be You] can be used in the Demon Realm, maybe we can really make Poké Balls." Warren did not stop the demons from raising monsters and trying to train them to fight. He also had expectations for this. "And some monsters have abilities that are not limited to fighting. They can be used in many areas of production and life in the Demon King's Palace."
For example, feed for raising roast chickens and redstone in the soil of lava lakes.
Since the scale of roast chicken farming in the Demon King's palace has become quite large, a lot of redstone is needed every day. The roast chicken farming team leader Hulu has been worried that the redstone in the lava lake will be used up. As early as a year ago, he asked the Demon King for a solution. As a result, after so long, the amount of redstone on the lava lake has not decreased but increased.
Everyone was very puzzled by this and suspected it was a miracle of the devil. Until one day, the devil soldiers who were playing a mud fight in the lava lake saw with their own eyes the fire whale they had tied up to test whether they could survive in the shallow lava lake waving its tail and sweeping the red stone into the soil. They were shocked to realize that the red stone was actually the excrement of the fire whale!
After that, the Demon King's Palace would regularly feed the remaining food scraps to the Fire Whale, treating the Fire Whale as an honorary member of the Demon King's Palace.
"So?" The Dark Dragon sat on a chair with tears in his eyes, holding the little black dragon doll in his arms, "If I change back to my original form, can I be fed French fries every day?"
Warren held his forehead helplessly: "I told you about the roasted chicken and red stone because I want you to study hard and learn to observe and understand the things around you. I don't want you to become a Warcraft."
"But Warcraft don't have to learn math," the dragon said, feeling both wronged and envious. "They don't have to take exams either."
Failing to pass the math test left a huge psychological trauma on the dragon. He cried for a long time in the tree house of the Winged Demon Feiwu, and then ran to the Demon King's palace to complain to the Demon King that the answers to the math problems were too unfair to dragons. He wrote so many answers, but none of them was correct!
Warren was speechless when he saw the Dragon Math test paper.
This dragon actually wrote down all the numbers from 1 to 100 in response to the question '30x5=?'!
For a moment, he didn't even know whether to scold him for not learning such a simple multiplication, or to praise him for finally being able to write all numbers within 100 fluently. Warren sighed tiredly, touched the dragon's head, and then ruthlessly rejected his request not to take math class.
"Come to the Demon King's Palace every night from now on," he kneaded the dragon's red horns, "and I will teach you personally."
The dragon was a little reluctant, but he didn't dare to refute the devil. He shrank back in fear, with his tail curled up: "If I don't understand, will you spank me?"
A long, long time ago, before he degenerated into a demon dragon, he was often beaten up by the elders of the dragon clan with dragon-subduing staffs because of problems with flying or cultivation. As a result, the demon dragon is still very afraid of stick-like weapons until now.
Warren couldn't help but tease him: "Of course."
The dragon's eyes widened: "Then I have to warn you in advance! If you dare to hit me, I will cry loudly! I will definitely keep you awake!"
This stupid little dragon believed in the power of the Demon King so much that he was timid even when he threatened him. Warren almost laughed out loud and poked the little black dragon doll he had just given to the Demon Dragon: "If you keep me awake and I can't sleep, I might have to take this doll back when I'm in a bad mood."
The dragon was so scared that he quickly hugged his doll and shook his head like a rattle: "Then I will cry quietly! I won't disturb you!"
He swore that although he had never tried it, he could definitely cry quietly. He almost bit his own claws and cried in pain to demonstrate to the devil. Warren held his head and pulled him to his side, saying, "Okay, I believe you can cry quietly. It's not important. Let's look at this math problem first."
Only then did the dragon stop and rubbed against Warren's side, lowered his head to look at the questions on the account board, and tried to count with his fingers. After counting for a long time, he found that ten fingers were not enough, so he used the transformation magic to conjure up a third hand, and then continued to pick at his fingers.
Warren: “…”
After he has learned basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, it is better not to force the dragon to attend intensive math classes - otherwise, I am afraid that by then I will see this stupid little dragon conjure up two hundred hands and count one by one!
The author has something to say:
Detective Pikachu is the live-action Pokémon movie voiced by Uncle Jian (scratching my head). I originally wanted to choose Frozen, but it would be too difficult for the demons living in lava to understand what ice is kkk
