Chapter 36
Led by the attendant, Joshua passed through a corridor that had oil paintings lining both sides of its walls…
The theme of the paintings surrounded the depiction of war, with clashing blades alongside blood-soaked bodies and dried bones being commonly found in most of the paintings.
The paintings made Joshua feel like he was in a war memorial instead of a performing theater.
The corridor was not too long, and soon, he had reached the end of it. The attendant stopped at a door before he turned around with an inviting gesture.
If the theater manager’s office was behind the door, then the attendant should have gone ahead and knocked on the door to inform the manager. Yet, the attendant did no such thing.
It was because there was noise coming from behind the door, and even if the attendant knocked, he assumed that no one inside would hear it.
“You can give me the highest offer you want, but I will never sell this theater to you!! You bunch of scoundrels! Get out of my sight!”
“I’m not a troupe manager, and I don’t have a troupe either.” Joshua shook his head, indicating that he was not someone from that sector.
“Then…” Sir Weissenasche was confused.
“My show is here.”
Joshua tapped his fingers against his suitcase.
“It’s a show… that could kick-start a whole new era.”
