Cultural Invasion In Different World - Chapter 2
[Chapter 2 Brand New Diplomacy]
Before Qiao Xiu’s plan to make a movie in another world was put on the agenda, a water element servant hurried to Qiao Xiu’s side.
This water element servant has the appearance of a human female, but the surface of the skin has a liquid texture.
“His Royal Highness, the third prince, the master called you to the guard room.” Her voice sounded emotionless.
“understood.”
There is only one master in this castle, and that is the father of the demon prince.
Qiao Xiu did not expect that he would meet the ruler of this world so soon…
According to the route in his memory, Joshua spent ten minutes walking through the complex internal structure of the castle, and came to an ominous door.
Qiao Xiu walked directly into it. The space in the corridor was astonishingly large, with statues more than ten meters high standing on both sides.
These statues have different shapes, and all the characters depicted are Chaos Demons of the same race as Joshua.
Each statue is the king who has ruled this land through the ages, maybe the demons living in the demon world do call them ‘king’.
It’s just that these kings privately have a unique name for themselves, that is, the ‘keeper’.
It looks simple and unpretentious, but it is an ancient name.
Qiao Xiu didn’t know what the meaning of this title was, but it was recorded that the history of the ‘Guardians’ has been passed down from generation to generation and has continued to this day.
And Qiao Xiu’s father, the Lord of the Demon World, is the current ‘Guardian’.
Joshua walked through the corridor sheltered by the ancestors and came to an empty hall.
The decoration here is also very simple, which is completely inconsistent with the place of ‘the king’s palace’. Except for a stone altar at the end, there is not even a throne.
Qiao Xiu’s eldest brother, second sister, and fourth sister have all come to this hall, and they are standing in front of the altar.
The solemn atmosphere filled every inch of the air here, Qiao Xiu’s brothers and sisters didn’t even look at Qiao Xiu, they just left a space between the second sister and the fourth sister, which was obviously reserved for Qiao Xiu.
Following the local customs, Qiao Xiu stood in front of the altar like his brothers and sisters, and looked at the back facing the altar.
“Knox, Cecily, Joshua, Foya.”
A voice full of oppression said four names in turn.
“Thirty years… I know it’s not even enough time for you to grow up, but it’s enough time for you to mature.”
The lifespan of the Chaos Demon is the shortest among all the races in the Demon World, only more than two hundred years. It can be said that it is the same as the human beings in this world.
However, for the Chaos Demons, 20 years old is still in their youth. Qiao Xiu is only 17 years old this year, and his sister Fuya is even younger, only 14 years old. Even if this age is put into human beings In the world of , it is also the kind that is sentenced to ‘starting in three years, the highest death penalty’.
“Father, is there anything you need to order?”
A powerful voice came from Qiao Xiu’s side. It was the voice of Qiao Xiu’s eldest brother Knox. As the eldest son, Knox, of course, was set to be a general in the battlefield, ruling thousands of troops and guarding the frontier.
It was a setting that Joshua expected.
“I have decided to elect the next caretaker among you in two years’ time.”
When Notleine said these words, the atmosphere that seemed to be extremely serious suddenly became tense.
What does the next caretaker mean?
That is, the next Lord of the Demon Realm.
The drama of succession and seizing power, Qiao Xiu felt that there was no need to repeat too much. Whether it was in the medieval history of Europe or Asia, the struggle for the throne was always a theme that would never end.
One of the most famous in China is that the Sima family usurped the throne of the Cao family, ending the chaotic Three Kingdoms period.
The Jin Dynasty was established, and Richard III backstabbed his nephew Edward on the European side to succeed him as the king of England.
In short, the history of the throne is always bloody.
Qiao Xiu can think that from now on, his brothers and sisters will definitely start stabbing each other, so…
“Please allow me to withdraw from the candidacy of the caretaker’s succession.”
Joshua said loudly to the current Demon Lord.
“Oh? Joshua, don’t you aspire to be a caretaker?”
King’s identity?
To rule the entire Demon World, to be able to possess everything in the Demon World, just one sentence can determine the lives of tens of millions of people.
It does sound wonderful, and the right thing is wonderful, but only if you have a life to enjoy it!
To put it bluntly, Qiao Xiu couldn’t win his eldest brother and second sister at all, and even his fourth sister could not win, but he might become the first victim in this battle for the emperor.
This is not the earth, we are all human beings. Since we can’t talk to each other, we can just fight each other with swords and guns. The difference in physical fitness will not be that big, which is fair.
But this is a different world, a different world with magic.
The third prince put all his talents on ‘invention and creation’. The individual strength is the weakest among the four siblings, and even the weakest fourth sister can tear apart countless numbers of themselves.
The fact that power fell into the hands of a weak man simply gave him a one-way ticket to hell.
And compared to power, Qiao Xiu prefers some spiritual satisfaction. In his previous life, Qiao Xiu had a part-time job as a ‘rich second generation’ and an “official second generation”. These two enviable identities, but Qiao Xiu never thought of inheriting them. What kind of family business, ‘walking thousands of miles to travel alone to Tibet’, ‘drifting in Germany for three days and three nights to participate in the Cologne Game Show’, etc., etc. These kind of things that some stupid literary and artistic young people do, Joe Repair is basically done.
“No, I have found a higher ideal, so allow me to refuse.”
Qiao Xiu has decided to go to sea and enter the film and game industry. It is such a tiring thing to do as a king. His eldest brother, second sister or fourth sister, whoever likes to do it can do it.
“A higher ideal?”
The Lord of the Demon World, Notlein, stared at Joshua for a long time, and then he issued a new order.
“Nogus, Cecily, Foya… You can leave first.”
Do you really want to force yourself to be king?
Qiao Xiu suddenly thought of some traditional chicken soup stories. There are also stories of the king choosing several of his own heirs as heirs. The one who succeeds in inheriting the throne will always be the youngest son who is the least optimistic.
reason?
There are many noble qualities such as kindness, tolerance, etc., but Qiao Xiu feels that these are all farts. At least in this world, people who are incompetent cannot bear the weight of the status of ‘king’.
Joshua now has a sense of being the ‘lucky little son’.
All the brothers and sisters left, leaving only Joshua and Notlein in the entire hall.
“Take it easy, don’t be prudent,” Notleine said.
Only then did Qiao Xiu clearly see the appearance of the Demon Lord. He was very old… The messy beard and the wrinkles on his cheeks constituted the first impression of the Demon Lord.
He was older than Joshua imagined. Compared to the image of a ruler, the image of an old father who had worked hard to raise four children was more suitable for him.
“Joshua, what do you think of the relationship between demons and humans?”
The Lord of Demons went straight in and asked one of the most acute questions for demons right now.
“It’s the enemy now, but I think it’s possible that relationship can change.”
Joshua pondered for a while and then answered him.
“Possible to change? Human beings regard us as evil, and they are full of hatred for our family. The centuries-long war with humans has shown this. Do you…still think it can be changed?”
“Of course, opinions and perceptions can be changed, given time.”
Faced with the question from the Lord of the Demon Realm, Qiao Xiu answered affirmatively.
“Change… the magic that affects the mind? After this kind of magic is discovered, it will further aggravate the hatred of human beings against demons. The war over the past century has brought too much trauma to our family. I am afraid that a new war will start here. Our family will end in defeat.”
The Demon Lord doesn’t look like he wants to go to war with humans again.
The demon family is not as strong as Joshua imagined, and the humans in the other world do not look as weak as Joshua imagined.
“So, Joshua, when the next war begins, I hope you can bring our clansmen to find a new shelter, Noggs, Cecily and the others will definitely stand up to fight…”
Are you ready for the aftermath of the defeat?
But Joshua didn’t plan to run away.
“I don’t need mind-affecting magic, I have a way of getting humans to take the initiative, or be keen to embrace the… culture of demons.”
The plan in Qiao Xiu’s heart basically had a prototype, and then he spoke to the Lord of the Demon Realm with more certainty.
What are people’s impressions of demons in modern society?
Fear?
fear?
Disgusted?
wrong!
All wrong!
None of them are right!
As long as people who can keep up with the trend of the times, there is basically only one impression of the existence of the devil, handsome!
The image of the devil passes through “Dungeons and Dragons”, UU reading www.sonicmtl.
com “World of Warcraft”, “Diablo”, “Duke of Hell”… etc. The secondary creation of games and films and novels.
It has long since gone from the traditional villain image used by religions in the Middle Ages to a character sought after by modern people. Although the word tyrannical and condescending is very vulgar, it is very suitable for demons.
When Diablo, the dreadlord in Diablo, said ‘”NOT·EVEN·DEATH·CAN·SITTING·FOR·ME!’,” Mal’Ganis, the interrogator of the Burning Legion in “World of Warcraft” There is always a feeling of excitement when shouting out ‘I’m Mal’Ganis! I’m immortal!’ and so on.
It’s not some moth being so scared that you want to pray to God.
Qiao Xiu, who planned to develop the entertainment industry in another world, just used movies and games to change people’s impression of demons in this world.
“Accept the devil’s…culture?”
“It’s a brand-new diplomatic method. I can’t tell you the specific method for the time being, but please give me a few years, and I will let you see the change.” Joshua said.
“With your strange inventions?”
Notleine stared closely at Joshua. He didn’t know where Joshua’s confidence came from. The only thing his third son could do was his weird machines.
“That’s right.”
It was the legacy of this demon prince that made it possible for Joshua to make a movie in another world.
And there is nothing inappropriate to describe culture as invention. Culture itself originates from creation and dissemination.
“Interesting, then I’ll wait and see what your so-called culture will bring between demons and humans.” Notleine said.
