Chapter 451: Chapter 429 Shuk Bacchetta_1
“On a night when the moon was full and the winds were high, the nine renowned families challenged Chu Kuang together. Chu Kuang, with an air of nonchalance, beckoned them with a flick of his finger, stating ‘All of you come at me together. I’m quite busy, you know, I still have a mystery to write.’ The nine families were livid and laid siege on Chu Kuang. With the blink of an eye, Chu Kuang pulled from his bosom a, oh wait, he whipped out his copy of ‘Fairytale Town.’ The nine families were instantly defeated, and with that one battle, Chu Kuang was deified, becoming the unparalleled King of Short Fairy Tales…”
The dinner table that night.
Lin Xuan was enthusiastically storytelling.
Listening, Lin Yao’s little sister’s heart was racing and her face was blushing, as she clapped her hands in praise:
“Chu Kuang is so awesome!”
Lin Yuan chuckled, “Big sister, you should consider writing Wuxia novels.”
“uh, who even reads Wuxia novels these days?”
Lin Xuan waved her hand dismissively, then curiously asked, “Are you really not considering introducing Chu Kuang to your sister?”
“Little sister, eat your vegetables.”
Lin Yuan loaded up his sister’s plate with a lot of vegetables.
His little sister pushed the plate with the green veggies towards Lin Yuan and gently requested, “Big brother, eat.”
Lin Xuan: “…”
Such touching sibling affection.
She didn’t give up, pressing Lin Yuan with her questions, “Is Chu Kuang married?”
“Not yet.”
“Is he very young?”
“About the same age as me.”
“Chu Kuang is young and single, surely he can’t be as handsome as you, but he is talented. As for me, I’m pretty much the female version of you… ”
“Not suitable.”
Lin Yuan immediately shook his head; his sister’s thinking was very dangerous.
Also, wasn’t the female version of him Lin Yao?
The person in their family that looked the most like Lin Yuan was Lin Yao.
Considering character and appearance, Lin Xuan didn’t resemble Lin Yuan as much as Lin Yao did.
After they finished the meal.
Lin Xuan suddenly said to Lin Yuan, “Say thanks to Chu Kuang for me.”
Lin Yuan replied, “Didn’t we thank him already?”
Lin Xuan shook her head, “You don’t understand the significance of ‘Fairytale Town’ to me. Because I am responsible for this work, I am getting credited with editorial experience, providing me with a significant advantage in future competitions within the editorial department. At the moment, both of my assistant chief editor competitors are at a disadvantage.”
“That’s good then.”
Lin Yuan laughed, “Big sister, you can ask me for help at any time.”
“Really?”
Lin Xuan’s eyes lit up.
Lin Yuan nodded; he typed very quickly and often wrote tens of thousands of words in a day.
For a keyboard warrior, this absolute dream speed.
However, Lin Yuan’s advantage comes from the System, as while keyboard warriors need to conceive and write simultaneously, he doesn’t have to worry about plotlines.
He’s just pure typing.
Only when he’s writing foreign works does he need to modify some of the background.
This requires a bit of work.
If it’s a complete copy, then the number of words he could accomplish in a day would be even larger, but specifics are unknown, because Lin Yuan likes to write a little every day, and occasionally do some other work.
“Then I’ll say it straight.”
His sister anticipated, “The song ‘Fairytale Town’ mentioned some of Chu Kuang’s future works, right? When they’re released, could you ask for them to be transferred to me for publication?”
“That’s simple.”
On a whim, Lin Yuan said, “Big sister, you’ve also heard the song ‘Fairytale Town.’ Why don’t you pick one, and I’ll get Chu Kuang to write it.”
There are many fairy tale plans for the future, and Lin Yuan really hadn’t decided which one to write first.
“Pick one?”
His sister’s eyes sparkled.
This was celestial treatment, being able to pick a work of Chu Kuang’s. If she told others, who knows how many of Chu Kuang’s fans would be envious to death.
Lin Yuan said, “Pick whatever.”
His sister hesitated, becoming somewhat nervous because her words would now decide what Chu Kuang’s next work would be about.
“I’ve got it!”
Recalling the unfamiliar characters mentioned in the lyrics of ‘Fairytale Town,’ his sister deliberated, “Then I choose Shuk Bacchetta.”
“Shuke and Beta?”
“Oh, are Shuk Bacchetta two characters?”
“Two talking mice.”
“Right, the lyrics do go like that all right. They’re really mice?”
“Yes.”
His sister immediately shook her head, “Then let’s change to another one. I don’t like mice. You better let Chu Kuang decide this important matter.”
“I’m sorry.”
Lin Yuan said sternly, “You’ve already placed your order, no returns or exchanges allowed. Please wait patiently, your dish will be ready very soon.”
…
Now that he was writing fairy tales and ‘Fairytale Town’ had forecasted some works, Lin Yuan definitely needed some related plans.
Given his typing speed, he could totally handle such plans.
However, the works mentioned in the song were basically mid-to-long stories, so Lin Yuan would need a bit of time to produce them.
His sister mentioned ‘Shuke and Beta,’ which is indeed a good direction.
Stories like Peter Pan, or Harry Potter and even Pinocchio require significant background modifications and are rather troublesome.
‘Shuke and Beta’ doesn’t require all that.
The author of this book is the true Fairy Tale King of the Celestial Dynasty, Zheng Yuanjie.
The book is also one of Teacher Zheng’s representative works.
Many people’s childhoods were accompanied by these two adorable mice.
Because the background is the Celestial Dynasty, Lin Yuan doesn’t need to modify anything, and the influence of this fairy tale has long been proven on another planet—
Speaking of which, this work might help Chu Kuang push his Prestige Value over a million!
Yes.
With the serialization of the Hercule Poirot Series and the popularity of ‘Fairytale Town,’ Chu Kuang’s Prestige Value has been skyrocketing recently!
It is soaring.
Especially after he earned the title “King of Short Fairy Tales,” his cultural Prestige Value directly reached 950,000!
This means he is very close to a million.
Lin Yuan realized that the honorific title of “King of Short Fairy Tales” is probably similar to the effect of an award. It is a result of countless recognitions coalesced and thus offers high Prestige Value rewards.
“System, display the taskbar.”
“Ding dong, already displayed for you.”
Lines of virtual text appeared before Lin Yuan’s eyes; he immediately looked at the earliest task on the list, also the task he cares most about.
[Task name: Health is the Capital of Revolution]
[Task content: Make Culture and Music Prestige surpass one million each]
[Task reward: Host can live until thirty years old, without illnesses or disasters, with good health]
Lin Yuan wore a smile.
He doesn’t need to worry about the Prestige calculations of the system.
Maybe it takes a lot of recognition from many people to be condensed into a single point of Prestige, but so what?
Now the cultural Prestige is around 950,000!
And his music Prestige has also risen to about 930,000 over time!
If the task had a progress bar, Lin Yuan’s health task would probably already be almost complete.
His health recovery was something Lin Yuan had always desired.
Now it seems that Lin Yuan will be able to confidently complete the task and get a healthy body this year.
“Good health, that should be all aspects, including vocal restoration, huh…”
