Chapter 684 - 25: My Full Cooperation in Your Performance

What is being done here?Is some special spell being cast?

But it seems like there’s no wave of mana spreading. The flash from that strange black box is just a flash, nothing special... The crow tengu girl with black wings and black hair muttered in her mind, watching this scene from afar, wondering what the young man standing at the peak of the basalt rock was doing.

The wind carried the information from afar, and she could clearly hear the man’s monologue.

Composition, angle, photograph...

Umm... okay, I completely don’t understand.

Anyway, at first, Miss Shameimaru subconsciously perked up her ears and listened carefully for a while, but only felt puzzled. What’s all this about? It seems like these are all unfamiliar terms.

—Already in the frame.

And on the distant canyon peak, standing on the columnar basalt terrain, Gu Mo was slowly photographing the scenery of the deep gorge with the camera in his hand, looking for better angles and compositions, while the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifted.

Miss Aya Shameimaru’s abilities aren’t bad. According to Zi, in the Demon Mountain, she’s already a leading figure in the tengu community, second only to the Great Tengu of the new generation.

Just not steady enough, and doesn’t like to manage affairs much.

But no matter how secretly she acted, she couldn’t escape Gu Mo’s perception. To be precise, as long as it’s a life form, it can’t escape his perception. This encounter was, of course, deliberately facilitated by him... Of course, subjectively deliberate, but not reflected in actions.

To make this Miss Shameimaru feel that—

She just happened to come across this by chance and thus had some ideas.

Budding the thought of arming herself with more advanced tools to become a next-generation media worker.

After all, it’s still the first meeting, and neither of them is familiar with each other yet. It’s really inappropriate to comment on someone else’s interests and hobbies, as this might only cause aversion. Whether human or demon, it’s the same, unless particularly close or especially good friends...

Then for someone else’s opinions and suggestions, there’s always a lot of factors to consider, or one might suspect ulterior motives.

However, if one thinks that some ideas are independently conceived, then naturally there wouldn’t be worries in this regard.

Gu Mo remains quite cautious about this, hoping to gently guide Miss Shameimaru in this manner, allowing her to awaken the consciousness of a new era media person by herself... At least on the surface, it appears as if she independently awakens this advanced consciousness, unrelated to him.

But right now, it still feels somewhat abrupt...

If those two would cooperate a bit, this photography scene would seem much more natural, but unfortunately, for some reason, they both seem not very interested.

Gu Mo feels a bit regretful about this.

Speaking of which, he seems to have seriously collected only Kikyo’s portraits... Here referring to formal, face-to-face methods, rather than reviewing recording copies afterward.

Holding the camera, he continuously captured "click, click," taking a breath to snap over a dozen photos, and he was certain the black-winged crow tengu girl behind him had grown more and more curious about this.

Despite still being separated by seven or eight miles, the crow tengu was currently lying on the other side of the mountain, using the dense forest to hide her figure, but this small distance ensured she could see every detail of the camera in his hand clearly.

Moreover, if she wanted, she could hear every word he muttered to himself clearly, not missing even a pause in tone.

In this aspect, he naturally had a lot of experience and a voice of authority because in daily life, if one doesn’t want to be too sensitive and constantly receive a lot of meaningless and chaotic useless information from the outside, wasting mental energy, one generally wouldn’t fully open one’s perception.

But when needed, his perceptual abilities could rapidly escalate to a terrifying level beyond ordinary imagination in a very short time.

This is a very normal thing, just like the intuitive control of strength. Even if someone possesses the strength to demolish a house as if playing with building blocks, it doesn’t mean they must use such strength when picking up a glass cup.

"What on earth is being done here..."

Miss Shameimaru watched a bit longer and finally couldn’t stand it anymore, muttering in her heart.

It doesn’t seem to be plotting any sinister schemes or intending to harm Demon Mountain. This can be set aside for now.

Her eyes rolled around quickly, soon coming up with an idea, quietly spreading her wings to fly far away, leaving the mountain peak where she was temporarily hiding. Before long, the girl circled the surroundings in a large loop and then flew back from the other side, pretending to pass through the canyon naturally.

—"Click."

The flash went off. Gu Mo raised the camera and naturally took a candid shot of the crow tengu girl flying from the side.

He put down the camera and waved to the approaching girl: "Miss Shameimaru, it’s you, have you just... returned?"

Pretending to have just returned from outside, naturally flying over the deep gorge in preparation to return to Demon Mountain, she was slightly startled by the flash, reacting with a hint of caution. The crow tengu girl with black wings stopped, seemingly instinctively drawing some distance.

She seriously examined him for a moment, seemingly confirming there was no issue before slightly sighing in relief. Then she frowned while looking at the young man on the canyon cliff: "It’s you, Mr. Gu Mo. That flash just now, what were you... doing?"

Meanwhile, in her heart, Miss Aya Shameimaru secretly gave herself a thumbs up for her performance. Didn’t coming over like this make it seem so natural? She really was a genius! And the other party was cooperating so well; she originally intended to pretend to pass by and just happened to see this scene and go over out of curiosity.

Unexpectedly, the other party directly used that flashing thing and took a "click" of her from a distance.

Doesn’t this give her even more reason to justifiably understand what the other party is doing? — What she didn’t know was that the young man across was actually earnestly cooperating with her performance, making it more believable, giving her better opportunities to play her part.

"This is, really sorry, I just instinctively took a photo of you..."

Resisting the urge to laugh, Gu Mo appeared slightly embarrassed, smiling as he waved at the Crow Tengu girl: "I haven’t asked for your opinion yet, but please rest assured, this is definitely not a bad thing. Let me show you..."

Heh! Smooth as expected!

Aya Shameimaru was almost about to laugh out loud, but she held her little face tight, not letting her expression give anything away. She looked at the other party, hesitated for a while, then lowered her wings slowly to fly over.

Her posture was fitting, her acting was still relatively competent.

"Photo... what is that?"

Landing beside the young man, she crossed her black wings in front of her, cautiously and warily asking.

"Look, this is it..." Gu Mo calmly picked up the instant photo and showed it to her, "This thing I call a camera, it’s a special tool that can record light and shadow. If the timing is right, it can capture wonderful key moments."

"Hmm, this..."

Aya Shameimaru was stunned for a moment, eyes slightly widening as she looked at the square photo being displayed in front of her by the other party’s hand.

In the background was the sunset at the edge of the sky, with the afterglow of the setting sun dying the large clouds red, and in the photo was a black-winged girl flying with open wings... without a doubt, that was her. Seeing something like a photo for the first time, Aya Shameimaru felt it was very novel.

"A special tool that records light and shadow..."

"If the timing is right, it can capture key moments..."

She pondered these two sentences, unconsciously looking at that strange black box in the other party’s hand, suddenly feeling a flash of inspiration in her mind.

She suddenly had a brilliant idea.

"Um... do you sell this thing called a camera?" Aya Shameimaru suddenly became a bit excited, stepping forward eagerly looking at the young man opposite, "I remember you said you’re a merchant, right? Is this what you sell?"

"Calm down first, Miss Shameimaru, as you said, I am indeed a merchant out of interest..."

Gu Mo seemed to be stunned for a moment, then laughed:

"As for this camera, I do naturally have them for sale here. If you’re interested, please come over to talk in detail... after all, there are many models to choose from, and perhaps you’ll like something else too, who knows?"

......

...

Both sides were acting, but only one took it seriously.

Under the real actor’s schemes, Aya Shameimaru was completely unaware she stepped into the trap, still immersed in her brilliant idea, naively invited onto that seemingly advanced ship — after all, the shipbuilding technology of this time was of no remark, a later centuries’ two-mast ship was clearly a dimensional reduction strike.

Under the sunshade, the Crow Tengu girl sat on the chair.

"This is..."

She couldn’t wait to take the exquisite scroll handed to her by Gu Mo, and upon opening, her face couldn’t help but reveal a surprised expression. This was obviously a Spell Scroll, turned into a mysterious side tablet under multiple spell blessings.

It displayed corresponding texts, images, and the like, and it changed in real-time. The screen was beautifully set, making it very pleasing to the eye.

The merchandise listed was endless, all prepared by Gu Mo for commercial shipping, showing everything from names to types and stock availability, with meticulously edited effect images. Corresponding product detail descriptions were also particularly detailed, speaking of various high-end, lofty ideals, and blowing everything out of proportion...

There were even promotional labels appearing on many product pages —

Bright green "-15%," "-30%," and even "-90%," these labels were especially eye-catching and seemed very considerate, with various explanations to make sure anyone could understand what they meant at first glance.

"Hmm! This, this..."

Even though it was her first time encountering it, Aya Shameimaru couldn’t take her eyes off, her eyes straightened.

She didn’t know someone deliberately plotted and ill-intent planned how long, having always prepared for this matter since being reminded by Yakumo Zi years ago, even referring to various successful experiences of future hand-chopping software, from page promotion, advertising layout to promotional means —

Not missing a single one, all were referenced.

It could be called a wolf’s ambition, as clear as day.
