Chapter 1112: Chapter 165: Dennisiowa’s Recreational Activities
What surprised Arthur was that Duke Annan did not live in the Dennisiowa Palace.
Even though Arthur genuinely looked down upon those nobles... he had to admit that they were indeed proficient at various forms of entertainment.
Within Yawen’s priesthood, there was also the domain of the "nobility." The essence of this power was "all things have their differences." As such, even in The Holy Nation, which was much more technologically advanced than Dennisiowa, its nobles were not as skilled at enjoyment as those of Dennisiowa.
—When it came to eating, drinking, and merry-making, no one understood it better than the Dennisiowa family.
If the young people from other families were to indulge in all sorts of entertainment, playing from dawn till dusk, gluttonous and lustful, they might be scolded by their elders. But for the Dennisiowa family alone... their main duty was to play.
If there were any anomalies among them who wanted to read books and learn, all other families would instantly become alert.
The spokespeople of the other families would even send their own "socially adept" and emotionally intelligent young people to play with members of the Dennisiowa family every day—even providing an "entertainment fund" for this purpose.
The primary goal was to turn all the heirs of the Dennisiowa family into useless individuals.
The secondary goal was to build a rapport with them...
Though it was uncertain who the next King of Dennisiowa would be—if everyone was useless, then a random choice would have to be made.
The new King of Dennisiowa would not only possess a portion of the King’s power, but would also immediately inherit a seat on the "advisory council"... Through his cronies, he could even influence his decision-making to some extent.
After all, once he ascended to the throne, it would not be easy to make new friends. Those friends who had become close to him "before he came into power," if their families encountered any problems, he couldn’t possibly just stand by and do nothing, right?
It was because of such needs.
That the entertainment industry in Dennisiowa also became increasingly prosperous.
From bathing and massages to card games and chess, from the lowest rank of prostitutes to the higher-ranked singing and dancing girls, from novels, plays, and operas to the jestful "banter plays" akin to comedic sketches and crosstalk... Beyond that, there were "engraving editions" similar to colored comics, and "engraving dramas" akin to movies.
Additionally, there were numerous forms of entertainment like skiing, hunting, hot springs, and the unique "nightmare dramas" only found in the United Kingdom—that is, recording nightmare content through ritual means and replicating them, then selling them in special facilities.
Using "nightmare dramas," one can directly "experience" the entire process of nightmare purification. It is not about them personally purifying nightmares, but rather acting as "actors," experiencing the process of purifying nightmares.
That is to say, this was not an escape game, but a holographic movie.
Though it’s impossible to edit and can only record nightmares, it still counts as an ultra-dream experience.
Just like having a grandiose and spectacular dream, it won’t leave a very deep impression or allow them to spoil without restraint. But the weak residual impression was enough for the experiencer to brag about to friends.
—The aforementioned experiences aside.
This was an entertainment that didn’t exist on Earth.
Now that the players had been living in Dennisiowa for a while, they had already tried all sorts of legal and illegal entertainments one by one... After all, the money in this world didn’t really mean much to the players. It was also a channel for squandering.
That "nightmare experience" definitely wasn’t the most experienced or highest-rated Dennisiowa entertainment activity so far... but it indeed was the entertainment activity with the most "daily viewers" among players to date.
After all, for the players, this was equivalent to watching "strategy videos." Besides being entertaining, it was also helpful for them to optimize their methods and approaches to purifying nightmares.
—But why don’t the players watch it every day?
The reason was simple.
Unlike the Denisiowans.
The players had "cheats."
...They could easily dodge the ticket by watching it through live broadcasts.
It wasn’t because they were short on money, mainly because they were too lazy to go out...
It’s now mid-June, approaching the end of the month. The weather had already become noticeably hot.
Although this world has subways, the exorbitant usage fees and complicated approval conditions, obviously, do not allow them to be used for everyday commuting. Not to mention that this world still lacks civilian air conditioning technology...
If they wanted to go to a store, they would have to teleport to the nearest location and finish their daily tasks in the relatively cooler morning or after midnight... Walking five or six kilometers under the scorching sun at noon.
Apart from those players who jog to exercise or need to gather sunlight at noon for rituals, the other players couldn’t be bothered to go out.
But if it’s the Dennisiowa Palace, that’s a different story.
Although civilian air conditioning technology isn’t widespread, it’s clear that the aristocrats have their own dedicated Ritualists. For guests as honored as Duke Winter, they will exert twelve percent of their "Dennisiowa family’s" power to do their utmost to make them feel at home...
From any perspective, there’s no reason for Annan to come out from the palace at all.
It’s probably because the Duke is still young and hasn’t become savvy about these matters.
That’s what Arthur thought.
...But why does he stay next to the Paper Princess Church?
Has the Winter family ever had any close agreements with the Paper Princess? I’ve never heard of it, have I?
But Arthur didn’t see... The Pardoner following behind him suddenly tensed up. She quickly checked her appearance to ensure everything was in order before catching up.
Euphie felt that this kind of tension wasn’t like seeing a friend, or even a lover.
...It was more like the nervousness of meeting a lover’s parents.
Although she had never been in a relationship... the only person she had more-than-friends intimacy with was their captain. But this didn’t stop Euphie from confidently believing she had plenty of experience in this area.
While they were still at the villa entrance, they saw a girl with long white hair and a young man with a steady presence walking towards them.
They were two silver-ranked Wizards who looked like a couple.
Euphie immediately frowned.
She smelled a certain "scent of blood."
Not the aroma of fresh blood.
It was a kind of "bloodstained" aftereffect left by high-ranking idol Wizards after killing someone.
...Why would such high-placed idol Wizards be here?
And, this hair color...
The two were discussing something in whispers.
"That fatso full of guts, on the verge of death, still dared to flirt with me..."
"You mean ’fat in the head and full of guts,’ right..."
"But I really do like eating intestines..."
"Uh, now that you mention it, me too... How about we have intestine hotpot after work tomorrow?"
"Yay!"
As they briskly walked by, oblivious to the surroundings.
Under Arthur’s astonished gaze, Euphie suddenly took a quick step forward:
"——Please wait a moment!"
She reached out to stop the two players passing by.
