Gatekeeper Of All Realms Chapter 139

Madam Daisy moved and spoke:

“Just take advantage of the performance just now, I’ll give you the first lesson—”

“We did so many actions just now, dancing and singing and so on, but a large part of it can only play an auxiliary role.”

“In fact, what we can truly rely on are our own songstress skills, or dancer skills.”

Shen Ye nodded slightly.

From the presentation of the song and dance just now, this was indeed the case.

Madam Daisy continued, “My songstress skill is ‘Absolute Impersonation’.”

“—I can impersonate others, and thus temporarily use others’ professional skills.”

“Then I distribute this professional skill to other songstresses, letting them use their own songstress skills to perform, thereby providing advanced inspiration to customers.”

“Alright, now it’s your turn.”

“Did I use the Nightmare Crystal I gave you?”

“Yes,” Shen Ye said.

“What kind of songstress skill did you awaken?” Madam Daisy asked with a smile.

“Splendid Opening,” Shen Ye said.

Madam Daisy was stunned.

“It’s actually related to ‘opening’… I’ve never heard of this skill,” she murmured.

“What’s wrong with opening?” Shen Ye asked.

“You should know that the most difficult part of a performance is the opening. It needs to immediately draw the audience’s emotions and immerse them in the performance,” Madam Daisy said with a serious expression.

“Exactly, I used to love watching the opening of performances. I thought it was the artistic crystallization that many people pondered over to achieve,” Shen Ye said excitedly.

He suddenly paused.

That’s right.

The opening is so important.

But he was just a newly debuted songstress, what right did he have to open for a dance troupe?

The Night Rose Dance Troupe was well-known.

Even the sheriff of Evernight City didn’t dare to act rashly when they heard of it.

Perhaps…

He needed a lot of training… before he could ascend the stage…

“Baxter, when did you start liking watching performances?”

Madam Daisy changed her tone and asked in a relaxed manner.

“Very early—” Shen Ye said self-deprecatingly, “When I was very young, I started paying attention to these things. Haha, it’s a bit like I liked these things more than my peers.”

Madam Daisy secretly nodded.

Among the undead, not many focus on art and performance.

Fighting and killing is the mainstream.

—Even among the four races, it’s the same.

This young vampire liked art since childhood and had been immersed in it, so his soul must have some reserves in this area.

Perhaps his skills would be quite novel?

Let’s give him a chance…

“Baxter, I want to try your skill, do you mind?” Madam Daisy asked.

“Not at all. In fact, I’d also like to receive your guidance,” Shen Ye said.

Madam Daisy said cheerfully, “The skill of that lord is still on me, but it’s too powerful, let’s weaken it a bit…”

She lit a cigarette, and lightly blew—

A wisp of flame flew from the cigarette, soaring towards Shen Ye.

“Even if it hurts you, it’s just a burnt finger. Try to use your own skill.”

Madam Daisy said.

“Alright,” Shen Ye responded.

He reached out to catch the extremely faint wisp of flame.

A sudden change occurred—

Rows of micro-text quickly appeared in the void:

“You have been temporarily granted the skill of the Soul Hunter: Virulent Grey Flame!”

“Possessing this skill means that the realm acknowledges your profession.”

“You can temporarily use this skill, or you can try to start employment in this profession!”

“Employment as a Soul Hunter requires the race: Shadow Scorpion, or for personal attribute points to meet the following requirements:”

“Strength: 30; Agility: 20; Spirit: 40.”

“Do you wish to be employed?”

Shen Ye’s whole body trembled.

Reverse inference!

It was actually reverse inference!

According to the normal employment process, one should first complete the employment, and then master the corresponding skills.

But if he already mastered the skills—

Wouldn’t that mean he was already recognized by the realm?

After being recognized by the realm, inferring backward, it meant that he had already been employed in a certain profession!

There was a huge difficulty here—

Daisy could only imitate, not become employed, because her own attributes were fixed, and the basic attribute requirements for many professions could not be met.

This matter seemed as difficult as reaching the heavens.

But he was different!

He had free attribute points!

As long as he had enough attribute points, couldn’t he just change his attribute points to become employed in any profession he wanted?

Accumulate more traits, devour them, and turn them into attribute points, and he could even become employed in the professions of the undead!

But all that was for later. For now—

Shen Ye calmed himself, reached out and caught the flame, directly activating his songstress skill, “Splendid Opening.”

The flame floated lightly on his fingertip, unmoving.

—How should he perform?

Actually, in previous attempts, he had already gained some insight.

This skill borrowed professional skills and, guided by him, performed an impromptu artistic creation.

So, how did he need to guide it?

The next second.

Two lines of micro-text appeared:

“This is a real stage, so your opening has stage blessings.”

“Performance begin!”

Silence surrounded them.

Shen Ye suddenly had an inspiration.

He raised his hand, like a conductor, and lightly waved it.

The silence was broken.

A melodious harp sounded from the depths of nothingness, encircling the entire stage.

This created an illusion.

—This was not a stage, but a primitive, unknown land.

The firelight flared up, splitting into two masses. One flew to the front of the stage, transforming into a flowing curtain of fire, covering the entire stage.

Daisy was stunned.

Fire… it actually formed a curtain that enveloped the entire venue!

Great artistic imagination!

This scene was splendid and grand, surpassing all previous performance openings.

But it wasn’t over yet—

The other ball of fire turned into wisps of fiery red threads, landing behind Shen Ye.

One, two, three…

The fiery red threads outlined perfect curves, even making the hair and dancing skirts remarkably distinct.

A total of twelve humanoid flame female songstresses stood on either side behind Shen Ye.

They lowered their heads, silent and unmoving, as if waiting for something.

Shen Ye immediately felt a connection in his heart, slowly raised his hand, and snapped his fingers.

*Snap!*

This snap seemed to be a signal.

The gentle piano music disappeared.

A loud and penetrating electric guitar sound soared into the sky, reaching the high ceiling of the opera house, stirring up the restless emotions deep within the darkness.

*Boom boom boom boom!*

The drum beats grew louder and more explosive, shaking the entire stage and directly setting the rhythm.

At the front of the stage.

The magnificent waterfall of fire shone brilliantly, silently parting to both sides.

The female songstresses seemed to sense something, and all “hummed” in unison, slowly raising their heads, assuming a posture of readiness to sing.

They took a step forward.

Even without an audience, the entire scene was already about to ignite!

Shen Ye began to sing:

“Blazing fire—”

The female songstresses made of flames sang in unison: “Burns the wilderness!”

Shen Ye continued to sing: “It illuminates the dark night—”

“Illuminates the dark night—” The female songstresses dispersed, humming along with him in unison.

Their voices were full and clear, rising to the ceiling, and the atmosphere was completely ignited!

In an instant—

All the firelight extinguished.

The curtain of fire, the electric guitar, the drum beats, even the electronic music that had just appeared, came to an abrupt halt.

The flaming female dancers also all disappeared.

The entire grand opera house once again fell into silence and darkness.

The intense movement turned into absolute stillness, so much so that Madam Daisy involuntarily showed a look of disappointment.

Shen Ye scratched his head and looked at her sheepishly.

“I’m still not very proficient with it. It just broke off, I’m really sorry!”

He said sincerely.

Madam Daisy stared at Shen Ye blankly, countless unspoken currents swirling in her eyes.

“…Madam?”

Shen Ye asked hesitantly.

This sound seemed to awaken Madam Daisy.

She came back to her senses and met his cautious gaze.

Damn it.

What’s “not very proficient”?

The cigarette spark was mixed with scattered gray flames, and to expand it to this extent was already beyond the limit!

It was just that there wasn’t enough fire!

Fool!

If that lord saw such a performance, he would surely gain countless inspirations.

He would definitely find a way to advance the skill!

Even she herself was shocked just now, her heart filled with an understanding of fire, and she even had new ideas for using gray flames.

This kind of person…

He must have been immersed in music since he was in his mother’s womb!

Otherwise, how could he achieve such a level?

Madam Daisy took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and then opened them again.

She controlled her tone, trying to appear calm:

“Hmm, it’s barely acceptable. You are indeed qualified to join the troupe. Our lead songstress has just passed away, so you can take her place.”
