The Daily Life Of A Cyberpunk Magician

Chapter 538 - 284 I’ve Already Said Magic Isn’t Difficult! _3
I was even more anxious, ahhhhh!

She was thinking quite miserably.

Just the thought of failing in front of hundreds of thousands of people was embarrassing enough, let alone the possibility of being attacked for it.

After studying for such a long time, she couldn’t even perform a simple magic trick.

How could these people know how difficult magic is?

Moreover, Jiang Shu demanded that she should come up with her own ideas and innovations...

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoou furrowed her brows and sighed.

But isn’t that how the world works?

The capable rise to the top, while those who aren’t fall behind.

The Character Card spelled it out clearly—the abilities one has.

Everyone in their respective positions is capable of handling the job, whether that ability was earned through hard work or bought.

She had no background and her talents were not outstanding; all she could do was firmly remember Jiang Shu’s words.

Practice once, then practice again.

Practice until there are no mistakes, until you can calmly and casually handle everything on stage.

And Jiang Shu was clearly doing this on purpose, with a very simple objective: to make Su Xiaoou even more nervous.

Because he could clearly feel that, as the performance continued, Su Xiaoou was not as nervous as when she first stepped on stage.

This...

How could that be okay?

She must feel the pressure; without it, can the performance be good?

Obviously not.

The first time on such a stage, how could her hands not tremble to the point of flying?

Instantly, a sense of ”I’m doing this for her own good” mission emerged in Jiang Shu’s heart.

”By the way, how long will your magic take?” Jiang Shu kicked Su Xiaoou again and inquired.

Performing on this stage, Su Xiaoou would definitely need to go through multiple rehearsals and calculate the timing.

”Five minutes,” Su Xiaoou quickly gave a number.

”Oh,” said Jiang Shu as he glanced at the time. There were about fifteen minutes left before the show would come to an end.

That meant they might need to compress the Q&A segment a little.

After all, the timing spent on his impromptu display had been somewhat long.

”Good, half a minute has passed,” Jiang Shu timed with his stopwatch and then took out those two rubber bands, slowly slipping them onto his hands and winding them around twice, ”like this, and at this point, you can start performing. Then just follow what I did just now.”

”It’s simple, right?” Jiang Shu looked at Li Yuntang before him and smiled, ”Isn’t this a blessing for the clumsy folks?”

”Indeed.” Very soon, Li Yuntang replicated the magic trick and then looked at Jiang Shu with her sparkling eyes.

Jiang Shu understood immediately, reached out for the bill, folded it, and slid it onto the first rubber band, quickly pulling it to the last one.

”It really works, how amazing,” Li Yuntang said dumbfounded as she looked at the rubber bands in her hands, ”I didn’t expect something as simple as rubber bands to do something so magical.”

Barrage:

”Wait, wait, do it again, I missed a step just now.”

”Hahaha I succeeded, isn’t it simple?”

”You guys... do you all have friends to help move the bills?”

”That last part was too real.”

In the audience, a few who had brought rubber bands actually succeeded, causing a small sensation of exclamations.

”Of course, you don’t need to think of magic as too complicated; most Magic Principles are actually quite simple,” Jiang Shu responded with a laugh, ”However, since we’ve spent too much time on this question, we need to move directly to the next segment.”

”The main character of the next segment isn’t me, but my apprentice Su Xiaoou. She will bring us her magic; this is her debut performance on the screen, everyone welcome her!”
