Chapter 2280 - Black Cat Opera Is Going To Take Off Now

Mag was shocked to hear Irina's words. Sally was still that maiden who had a cold exterior but a warm heart in his impression.

He didn't expect she would really become the princess that had the Wind Forest under her control within six short months.

What he even least expected was that Irina actually had high praises for her.

Irina said honestly, "I have to admit that she really knows how to balance and handle all the different powers. Moreover, I always like to convince people with might."

Mag nodded. He knew she always liked to convince people with might.

"So, if there's no surprise, she will become the next elven queen?" Mag asked.

"I haven't found a more suitable candidate yet." Irina nodded. "At least, I'm not interested."

Mag chuckled. "Interesting. I think my greatest accomplishment in this life might be opening this restaurant and recruiting this group of service staff."

"Hm?"

"Our delivery rider has become the queen of the Twilight Forest; our second employee is going to become the elven queen; our server might become the queen of the Moon Nation; our cheerleader is the escaped princess of Lantisde, our chopper has already become the queen of the vampires; Angela is trying to bring the succubi back to glory again; and our queen of the hot pot is on the rise." Mag couldn't help smiling. This was really something worth boasting about.

Irina looked at Mag, who had a smug look, judgingly and asked, "So, why are they all pretty girls?"

Mag's smile froze on his face. After thinking about it seriously for a moment, he said, "I have always been steadfast. Since the first employee is a female, then they will all be females."

"What about Shirley?"

"Erm… She got in by accident," Mag murmured before changing the conversation topic. "Oh yes. We'll be going to the Boundless Sea Realm for team building in two days. You should be free, right?"

"I need to make a trip to the Wind Forest. You guys go ahead." Irina shook her head.

Mag concernedly asked, "Did something happen? Do you need me to go with you?"

Irina shook her head. "No. I just need to verify a very small matter. The Wind Forest can't stop me now. I can come and go as I please."

Mag nodded. "Then, I'll leave Ah Zi to you. I'll be more at ease with it around you."

"Alright."

The next day, Mag went to Hope School again. He submitted a long list with 200 people on it. He expressed the Night Elves' interest to teach in Hope School.

Luna was shocked when she saw the name list that was a few pages long. After hearing Mag's words, she took some time to digest it before nodding and saying, "How about this. I will organize a recruitment fair for the school's teachers tomorrow and I'll select 20 people from these 200 to join Hope School.

I'll split the remaining 180 candidates into three classes and let the Hope School's experienced teachers train them, so that they could fulfill the basic teaching requisites.

However, school is going to start soon, so this training can only be done at night and during rest days."

"Alright. Let me thank you for your help on behalf of the Night Elves," Mag said gratefully.

Luna answered with a smile, "I should be the one thanking Mr. Mag for bringing more talents to the school again. Furthermore, we get to help more people, which is our original intention. It's just a small thing."

Mag went to the textile factory after coming out from Hope School. He repeated Luna's words and got the Night Elves to make preparations.

Then, he printed 10,000 more copies of 'Miss Black Cat' and got the Night Elves to send them to Rodu.

He had already received Eiffie's message. 'Miss Black Cat' was selling like hotcakes. The 10,000 copies that they printed previously weren't enough to satisfy the demand, so she asked Mag to prepare more.

If it was the usual picture books, Mag might control the numbers to make sure that they maintained their value.

However, 'Miss Black Cat' was different. While this was an excellent picture book, it was also an advertisement for the Black Cat Opera.

Even though 10,000 copies seemed a lot, its spread was still not wide enough.

Furthermore, there was no reason to stop a big business that could earn millions when the market's feedback was great.

Currently, the copyright fee had already been broken even, the rest was now pure profits.

"Maestro, there are so many people out there today asking me when we will start our operations again."

"Yes, yes. I was even recognized when I went out. They have never come and watched the opera before, so why are they so enthusiastic about it?"

"Seems like… our Black Cat Opera is going to take off now."

The Black Cat Opera's actors gathered in the interim maestro's office. They sat around a rickety table with ill-concealed excitement on their faces.

This was the first time they felt noticed after so long.

Vicki's expression was still calm, but her upturned lips exposed her current mood.

Yes. Although the Black Cat Opera House was still under renovation, there were more and more audience members asking about the time of their reopening. There was even a hint of a crowd gathering.

The reason was very simple. It was because of the 'Miss Black Cat' picture book.

The 'Miss Black Cat' picture book had already sold a few thousands copies within a short few days. It was sold out every day as soon as Titan Tavern brought the books out.

The picture book not only increased the Titan Tavern's popularity, it also brought plenty of positive feedback for Black Cat Opera in the past two days.

The interesting picture book and the blatant opera advertisement at the back of the picture book aroused the readers' curiosity for the opera.

However, the Black Cat Opera House was under renovation for the past few days and they couldn't perform. This piqued the readers' curiosity even more, so the exterior of the opera house had been exceptionally boisterous for the past few days.

Foreseeably, they would have a good number of audience members after the opera house finished its upgrade and they reopened for a performance.

Vicki couldn't help but feel excited as soon as she thought about it.

Ever since Black Cat Opera was established, their most popular performance only had about 80-90 audience members, and most of them were their neighbors.

After the opera house was upgraded, it could accommodate 1200 audience members at the same time. She only wanted to know if the theater would be fully packed one day.

Vicki said to all of them with a solemn expression, "The theater will finish its upgrading works in two days. Let's all practice harder and get ourselves into our peak form to welcome the first performance of our Black Cat Opera House."

All of them stopped smiling and nodded gravely.

Everyone knew very well that they had finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel after struggling for so long. They had to grasp this chance fully to make all their past hard work and perseverance worthwhile.

"I'll treat you guys to a big meal if our premiere is successful." A smile appeared on Vicki's face as she loudly declared, "We will have a whole roasted goat!"
