  Nyoi-Bo Studio

  Wizards’ Calendar, 1593.

  In the Adriatic Sea of the Starsoul World.

  The great fairy Muriel lived in her Ancient Tree of Fairies’ Tree Tower. The Tree Tower was full of gold and silver treasures and Magic Crystals. Her favorite hobby was to lounge on top of those treasures, do nothing, and squirm on them with a red face of infatuation for a day.

  “Lady, isn’t it painful?” a little fairy in the Tree Tower asked.

  “What do you know? These are gold coins, money! It’s warm and hot. How could it be painful? Money! Money can buy everything!” Muriel gave her the daily rebuke.

  “Come on, this is a new morning. Let’s shout it together, our slogan is……”


  “Make money! Make money! Make money!”


  “Our goal is……!”


  “Make money! Make money! Make more money!”


  Muriel owned a territory that was given to her with a decree personally signed by the Queen of the Arcane Kingdom. She was the Lady of the Arcane Kingdom and a Duchess of the Arcane Kingdom.

  Don’t ask about what was going on with the extra title of Duchess. It was not a surprise when one realized that the leader of the Arcane Kingdom was an Elf Queen.

  Muriel had her own territory. At the same time, she’d been given a seed of the Ancient Tree of Fairies. Things went smoothly for her for a few decades. She was promoted to become a Great Fairy. She had gone from being a glittering and lovely little fairy and had transformed into a charming exotic beauty. As a Level Four Great Fairy, not many dared to provoke her.

  Muriel’s territory was very distinctive. It was an island between the Sylve Continent and the Fairy Continent. It was originally a barren island with nothing on it. Whoever received that place would have been called really unlucky.

  But since the construction of an Aqua Track that connected it to the Sylve Continent and the Fairy Continent, it had become an important transportation hub with a continuous stream of Aqua Trains coming in from both continents every day.

  The barren island had become a popular site, but nobody dared to snatch up that lucrative site. That was because it was a territory which the Emperor of the Arcane Kingdom had personally endorsed, and the one occupying it was a Great Fairy.

  Muriel was very business-minded. She transformed that important Aqua Train Station and built a commercial island. It had the famous Fairy Pub, Fairy’s Amusement Park, and the Fairy Department Store. The most famous one was the Summoner’s Canyon!

  Yes, Muriel invented a new kind of entertainment. As a Summoner, she invented a similar combat competition like the former colosseum. However, the bloody colosseum had long ago been banned. Muriel invented a new form of Summoner’s Combat Competition in Summoner’s Canyon, and under her leadership, it was popularized all over the world.

  There were five Summoners on each side. Each summoned a contractor and fought five-on-five combat in the Summoner’s Canyon. There were audiences and tourists who flocked to the island because of the renowned game. The public even named Muriel’s territory ‘the Town of the Summoner’s Canyon.’


  With the popularization of the Summoner’s Combat Competition, hundreds of Summoners gathered there. With every victory, they would win great prizes. There was also a points ranking system. Every game also used the latest Recording Pearl for video recording and was then broadcasted on the channel of the magic telly.

  At the same time, magic radio broadcasting channels would broadcast synchronously. Summoner’s Combat Competition was popular all over the world. Men, women, children, everyone knew the number one Summoner in the world. He had a good reputation and a huge fan base.

  At the same time, according to their ranking points, Summoners were also divided into bronze, silver, gold, diamonds, and master grades. There was also the most powerful level, the legendary King’s Summoner!

  It was the annual Summoner’s Combat Competition, five versus five. The match was interpreted by Lady Muriel personally. The participating teams each had several master-level Summoners and a King’s Summoner.

  “Now what we see is that the Griffin has gone around, it has gone around, and we’re about to see a brutal massacre……”


  “Yes……”


  “Kill him!”


  “Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!”


  Muriel stood on the platform hanging down from between two airships. She was passionately explaining the competition because she earned a huge income from every match. At the same time, more income came from other elements of the Summoner’s Combat Competition. Videos, live broadcasts, concessions, and gambling all brought in lots of money!

  Gorgeous fairies of all nationalities fought here. The spectators on the higher seats outside the canyon and above the airship in the sky cheered in unison. Everything could be experienced here!

  After a series of intense and exciting combat matches, audiences could also experience intense and exciting night-time activities such as pubs, theatres, ballrooms. This place had everything that anyone could want!

  “Hey, give me some real acting! The last time you did that it was too fake. You jumped straight in the face of someone else!”


  “And you! What’s wrong with you? Didn’t we agree to play a fake match? What’s the matter with your killing spree all the time?”


  At the end of the game, Muriel was dissatisfied as she closed accounts with the Summoners. At the same time, she was rebuking their wrongdoings and exploring various reasons to deduct their fees.

  A military train from the distant Troll Continent suddenly arrived in the town of Summoner’s Canyon. Like the Trolls who built it, the train was boorish and bulky, built from heavy iron sheets that looked twice as thick as those on an ordinary train.

  Many Trolls carried rifles, Steam Gatling Guns, and Annihilation Elemental Artilleries as they stepped down from the military train and lined up in a compact formation in the town square. They wore the latest anti-demon armor and had thunderstorm grenades at their waists. When released, the grenades could release a large power grid, effectively targeting professionals with long-range ability.

  Over the sea, warships were passing by. On top of them were Steam Cannons, Magic Crystal Tanks, Bombing Airships, and Battle Airships fully equipped to be launched. That situation caused them to feel the serious aura of the severe and destructive power and the smoke from gunpowder.

  Muriel, as the Lady of this place, immediately arrived and received the commander’s war mobilization order with the seal of the Arcane Kingdom and the signatures of the managerial elders of the Kingdom.

  “What’s the matter? What’s going on? Another war? Who are you fighting with this time?” Although Muriel was somewhat frivolous and only cared about money, upon seeing the grand lineup, she knew it wasn’t trivial and that something huge was going to happen.

  The Troll officer who led the army said, “It’s time to fight, but it’s not with anyone. It’s another operation order!”


  The Troll officer coughed twice with his gruff throat and said mysteriously, “A new half-bitwall has been found!”


  Muriel’s eyes suddenly sparkled. “New half-bitwall?”
