BXBX NOVEL Chapter 40: Art Lecture
Seth as a veteran gamer knew all the in and out of being an advturer. One of the things was constant preparation.
Seth might have not gone out of the town and hunted beasts but he has bought all the required things for camping.
In fact, the reason he worked hard to activate other pockets' invtories was his t-shirt invtory can't take everything.
The t-shirt pocket can only take 5kg weight and the lgth must not exceed m. At first, Seth bought a bag and packed his things in, mostly painting materials but it's still not ough to carry other things.
Seeing that, he worked to activate his jacket pocket invtory he th packed things inside. Mostly camping materials. Subsequtly, he managed to unlock other invtories.
Blurp!
"That was good! I wonder if I can improve this Gourd."
After eating, he drank from the Soothing Gourd which gave him immse satisfaction. He wondered if he improved it, what attribute he would unlock?
Well, he threw that thought away as he glanced at the forest, at the location he saw the Antelope. Seth walked forward and tered the forest.
Increase perception!
He found the animal about 0m away from him. It was grazing the pasture. He observed it for some minutes before he diverted his atttion to the forest. He wanted to know if there were any other animals apart from the antelope. There was ! The forest was the same as wh the Gizelle was.
Before making any decision, he walked into the forest. He aimed to go a the forest to see if he could find anything.
The Antelope was very ssitive, the momt it felt any suspicious sound, one thing it did was run.
Though it ran away from the human, it always stayed within his reach. The furthest it has be was 00m.
The Antelope gazed at the lean human with his black hair, thick eyebrows and deep black eyes. It has never se him before but saw others like him that wore the same Azure uniform.
They used to hunt in groups but it has be a long time since they disappeared but this one was moving all alone for some time now!
The momt Seth looked at the Antelope it ran away. He sighed as he gulped down Soothing water.
Seth has reached the point of collapse long ago but with Soothing Gourd on one hand and staff, on the other hand, he pushed himself further.
The momt he tumbled and was about to fall he used the staff to hold himself and th gulped down Soothing water.
It's a race against time!
As Seth scoured the forest, he forgot about the time, remembering that he began sprinting to reach the town clearing before the game ejected him.
If not, he will surely be left in the forest and he doesn't want that. Alas, seconds remain before ejection, he reached his small cottage and slumped on the bed.
To Seth's surprise, he began to fall asleep and in 3 seconds he fell asleep but at the same time was awake.

"So, can people sleep in the game?" Seth thought as his VR cabin slid op.
Today, too, he had a class but this time he didn't forget his medicine and foldable cane.
It was a miracle, today he also has ough strgth to move a like a normal person. His mother was happy about it, hoping it would last longer than before.
Ev though the cause was unknown, he and his parts swear to find the reason.
After school, Seth wt to his workshop and met with a surprise; Manuella Sefu was there, invited by his sister, Annah.
"Good morning, Maam!" Seth greeted her, and th glanced at Anna with a questioning look.
"The workshop is not bad. I can see you put a lot of work into it. My question is, do you really wish to pursue it as a career?" Manuella wt to the topic directly.
"Yes, Maam," Seth answered.
"Good. Art is versatile, what was good on one eye, it's meh on the other. So, for every creative Art one made, he should have a target audice in mind." She said as stared at Seth's face that was now in focus.
"The best example was Cultural Arts. Bringing an Amazonian or African Art to Ni Country might seem exotic but may not be speaking because a layman will have a hard time understanding it or ev associating with it. That also applies if you take ours to them...…"
And th the unexpected lecture begins, but Seth quickly adjusted and began to jot down important things, at some junctions, he ev asked questions. One and a half hours later, the lecture ded.
Seth's eyes were sparkling as he started at Manuella. What happed today was informative and a clear explanation of what he lacks.
True, he learned from Nanncy, but she lives in another world differt from him, she has differt values, culture and sse of Art. Also, her Arts are too advanced for his currt Art Brain!
It's like he learned how to control and drive an aeroplane from one destination to another. He can do that but with his limited understanding of certain aspects, there is much he couldn't grasp.
As for Manuella, she was basically teaching him how to drive a car. The differce is ormous, one was planetary level and the other was local level.
Connecting with what he learned now and what he already learned makes his mind explode with ideas.
Ideas that put him on the right track. Seth was full of smiles and fawning as he said his farewell to Manuella wh she was leaving.
After she left, Seth stood there thinking, 'If I had dared to start the Workshop and Anna Art Gallery, everything would have gone wrong!'
The sole reason was the Target Audice. What he learned and knew about Art might not be appealing to the people he was targeting.
"You seem lighted!" Anna said after she observed him.
"Yeah, she knows what she was doing. As expected of someone that grows by experice. I do not hold a candle!"
***
A middle-aged, long black woman, walked into her Automated home. She wore a long black gown that had glistering black stones on it. Whever she walked, a jiggling sound was heard as if clashing small diamonds.
They were indeed black diamonds!
The woman has a long face, with jet black hair, that weaves all the way to her bosom. She isn't an excessive beauty but with her brown eyes almost gold, she has a mature feel to herself and is attractive to those who gazed at them.
She dropped her keys and wt to her childr's room. Two beautiful twins were fast asleep and their Naid was asleep too but she woke up hearing someone come in.
"Lady Manuella…!" The Maid stammered.
