Circus Performance
Wizet's feelings were complex and contradictory, a mixture of anticipation and worry.
He hoped for another companion, but he was also worried that this special power might bring Luna undeserved disaster.
It is precisely because he has had it that he is afraid of losing it.
"La Wei A Sa!"
Luna's chanting started and then stopped, and nothing happened.
"I can't use this magic, can I?" she asked softly.
That ethereal, almost dreamlike voice seemed to contain not a trace of loss.
Wizet let out a soft breath, shook her head slightly, and forced a smile. "That was just a magic spell that came to me on a whim after I was observing the ruins."
"Do you know about Compound Magic? I wanted to try Levitation Charm and other spells to create a more useful spell, but unfortunately... such attempts seem to have failed."
"Is that so?" Luna met his gaze, her beautiful, light silver-white eyes possessing a unique clarity that seemed to see through everything.
Wizet lowered her head and felt her ears getting hot. She quickly looked away and rubbed her earlobes.
"We have a long time ahead of us! You can teach me other things in the future..." Luna smiled.
"Most importantly... no matter what happens, we are family. That will never change, okay?"
Wizet felt her throat was dry and her nose was slightly sore.
He nodded with absolute certainty and said, "Of course!"
There was no need for further explanation between the two; tolerance and understanding came naturally.
As night fell, even though Sweden has long days, the sky seemed to be veiled in a light orange glow.
After a brief rest, Xenophilius sat in a chair in the guest room and began polishing the long horns of the Crumple-Horned Snorkack.
Although they couldn't find any trace of the Crumple-Horned Snorkack- Crumple-Horned Snorkack Beast, bringing back its long horn was still a worthwhile achievement.
As Xenophilius wiped his long horns, he asked, "Wizet, do you know anything about the Crumple-Horned Snorkack?"
Wizet replied, "I've heard Luna mention some of it before."
"Then let's talk about the long horns of the Crumple-Horned Snorkack!" Xenophilius held the long horns in a good mood, his eyes full of admiration.
"Pandora once told me that if the Crumple-Horned Snorkack ever appeared, its horns would glow."
"Those who have an extremely high tolerance for unusual things can touch the long horn and summon the Crumple-Horned Snorkack to their side."
"However, this horn hasn't been glowing, which means the Crumple-Horned Snorkack isn't here." He stuffed the horn into Luna's backpack.
"Otherwise, I believe that with my baby's abilities, he could definitely summon the Crumple-Horned Snorkack!"
As the outside grew increasingly lively, Xenophilius finally stood up, waving his hand and saying, "Let's go! After the show, get a good night's sleep, and we'll continue our search for the Crumple-Horned Snorkack tomorrow!"
Under a dimly lit sky, the Fantastic Circus stands in the center of the village, its colorful tent particularly eye-catching.
Accompanied by melodious and joyful music, the curtain in front of the tent was drawn back, and colorful light poured out from it.
Wizet and the others followed the flow of people into the tent, their eyes drawn to the dazzling and mesmerizing orbs of light surrounding them.
The orbs of light floated in mid-air, changing colors from time to time, suddenly falling towards the crowd, and then suddenly rising again, eliciting bursts of laughter.
Both Luna and Xenophilius were watching a circus performance for the first time, and their eyes held similar curiosity and anticipation.
Wizet was slightly better off. In his previous life, he had seen circus performances on television, but he had never been there in person to experience the lively atmosphere.
The appearance of the hunched Circus Troupe Leader signaled the official start of tonight's circus performance, as countless orbs of light converged in the center of the stage, illuminating the acrobats who were the first to appear.
The acrobats tumbled and leaped in the air, their movements becoming even more flamboyant with the help of magic and props, completely defying the constraints of gravity and eliciting gasps of amazement from the audience.
These acrobats are incredibly flexible, like a sheet of paper. They can not only fold their bodies in the air, but also fold them again, so that their abdomens are close to their heads. It's simply unbelievable.
Not only that, they also deliberately arranged a "failure" maneuver, where the character suddenly falls to the ground, then bounces back into the air like a spring amidst a loud bang and dust.
Then, a group of small Fire Dragon flew to the center of the stage, followed by three clowns.
The little Fire Dragon let out a sharp roar and spewed orange-red flames at the clowns. The clowns ran for their lives, but their bodies were engulfed by more and more flames.
When they collided, the flames on their bodies actually gathered together and transformed into a giant, menacing dragon, which then began to chase after the little Fire Dragon.
Such comical actions and performances drew continuous laughter from the audience, who generously offered endless applause.
As Fire Dragon and the clown exited the stage, Hippogriff, carrying a clown on its back.
The clown was extremely restless, jumping up and down on it, and every now and then he would slip and fall to the ground, only to be caught by the Hippogriff...
As one performance after another came to an end, even the sky had darkened, and through the occasionally fluttering curtains, one could see the deepening night outside.
The grand finale arrived, and the three clowns reappeared on stage. As they leaped into the air, three sharks instantly appeared.
What followed was a giant bubble that enveloped the center of the venue.
The three sharks seemed to have returned to an aquarium, swimming freely inside the bubbles, sometimes reaching high places to scatter the light spheres, and then quickly swimming back and forth on the stage...
Amidst thunderous applause, the three sharks transformed back into clowns, their faces displaying what appeared to be relieved smiles.
The hunchbacked Circus Troupe Leader reappeared, leaning on a cane that looked like a long spear.
He seemed to be in very bad condition, coughing incessantly, and even spitting blood onto the stage.
Wizet frowned, a vague unease creeping into his heart. He immediately called out to Luna others, "Let's go!"
Luna didn't say much. She trusted Wizet completely and had no doubts to ask. She stood up and grabbed Xenophilius's wrist. "Dad, let's go!"
"Let's go now?" Xenophilius hesitated for a moment, but seeing Wizet's serious expression, he nodded. "Alright!"
Just then, the Circus Troupe Leader suddenly burst forth with silver-blue light, and several ravines appeared in the center of the stage, forming a spiraling vortex pattern!
The three of them were still some distance from the curtain when Wizet saw the cyclone pattern Wizet. Without hesitation, she quickly put her hands together in prayer.
After a series of smooth hand seals, he erected a Magic Barrier, enveloping the three of them.
The cyclone pattern spread out with dazzling light, enveloping the entire circus. Everyone who was illuminated by the light turned into a reindeer.
Once the light returned to the cyclone pattern, Wizet quickly pulled Luna along and continued running towards the curtain.
With a look of resistance on his face, the clown transformed back into a shark, swam back and forth in the air, driving away the reindeer that were trying to escape to the curtain and gathering them onto the stage.
If the reindeer resists, the shark immediately opens its jaws and pounces on it, smashing it onto the stage.
After several reindeer were treated this way, the remaining reindeer could only cautiously approach the stage, their eyes filled with boundless unease...
