"Too bad there are no private boxes."
Xue Xi sat beside Connors, looking at the stage wrapped in trees with a hint of regret, and said.
"It's a Stadium to begin with, so it's normal not to have private boxes. There are commentary rooms, though," Connors said.
"Then... do you want to go?" Xue Xi's eyes became like Silk, and her voice also turned hazy.
Connors, who had been working hard all night, was still in his 'sage mode' and instinctively refused upon hearing this:
"It loses its meaning if you do it too many times."
"I'm wearing a very sexy..."
Xue Xi continued to whisper seductively into Connors' ear.
"— swimsuit?" Connors interjected.
Unfortunately, Xue Xi didn't get the joke, so she just blinked her eyes, which seemed to be overflowing with water, and corrected him:
"It's a uniform~"
If they kept talking like this, Xue Xi would get clingy sooner or later, so Connors quickly changed the subject:
"Who is the magician you invited to perform this time? I remember you said yesterday it was a beautiful female magician."
We can talk about the uniform tonight."
Xue Xi gritted her teeth. You don't want the star singer right in front of you, but you're thinking about the beautiful female magician you only mentioned last night?
An inexplicable emotion surged from her heart, and she was a little unhappy:
"Her name is very rare, so I wrote it down. It's Zatanna Zatara. She's a very professional stage magician."
It wasn't Harley Quinn, but this magician would soon be replaced by Harley. Connors felt relieved, but then again, Harley and Xue Xi had only met three times in total on the day of the concert.
One time was when Xue Xi was on stage, one time was when Xue Xi was tied up by Silk Cindy Moon, and one time was when Xue Xi was tied up by "Poison Ivy" Ivy.
Harley and Xue Xi had basically no chance to interact, so it was unlikely that Xue Xi would invite Harley to perform magic.
As for the magic performance Harley Quinn mentioned, she probably just heard about this magic show on the way back last night and decided to stir up some trouble.
After silently praying for the beautiful magician named Zatanna Zatara, Connors quickly realized something was wrong:
He prayed for the wrong person!
He didn't immediately react to the name Zatanna Zatara!
One of the most powerful sorcerers in the DC Universe!
The person who should have been prayed for was clearly Harley Quinn.
Just as he realized that this magician was such a formidable being, the audience seats around him erupted in warm applause.
A spotlight shone directly onto the stage from top to bottom, and a beautiful figure appeared out of nowhere, materializing under the spotlight.
Amidst the applause, Zatanna smiled, took off her hat, bowed to the audience, and then reached into the darkness beyond the spotlight to pull out a mirror.
Apparently, her sudden appearance was a 'visual deception' achieved with this mirror, a genuine magic trick, not the magic that Connors had thought it was.
Usually, magicians perform a few relatively simple tricks first and then reveal how they're done.
This is done first to warm up the audience and second to prepare for the main performance that will follow.
Zatanna on stage was no exception. She performed small tricks like doves flying out of a hat and bending the spotlight beam at will. After earning cheers and applause, she began to set things up, pretending to be mysterious.
And after the previous visual tricks, which seemed simple but were undetectable to anyone in the audience because Zatanna herself didn't reveal them, the audience's anticipation began to rise gradually.
Furthermore, because Zatanna was wearing a tailcoat evening dress, a black top hat, and a white shirt underneath,
Her long legs were encased in black stockings, paired with a pair of black high-heeled over-the-knee leather boots.
The effect of the magic combined with Zatanna's excellent image made the audience impatient for the next performance.
The magic performance was silent throughout, only displaying the name of the trick on the large screen on stage. What was about to happen was a classic stage illusion: 'Appearing a Person'.
"So you like black stockings..." Xue Xi looked at Connors staring intently at the stage and secretly decided to wear a pair of black stockings under her uniform tonight.
Connors reached out and rubbed Xue Xi's head beside him, who was clearly brimming with jealousy. His gaze remained fixed on the stage.
Among the people he had met so far, Zatanna, who was performing magic on stage, had the most striking features, a very standard Western beauty.
Her thighs, encased in black stockings, were perfectly plump and looked full of elasticity.
No, instead of looking at legs, I should be looking at the box—
Connors shifted his gaze from Zatanna to the box that had been moved from backstage, used for the 'Appearing a Person' illusion.
"Guess what hair color person this magician will make appear?" Connors asked Xue Xi, who was clearly in a much better mood after the head pat.
"It can't be someone with mixed black and white hair like me, right?" Xue Xi said randomly, listening to the topic Connors seemed to have brought up casually.
"That won't happen, but I guess a little lunatic with red and blue pigtails will soon pop out of that box," Connors said.
On stage, Zatanna held a small wand and waved it in the air, acting every bit the magician, and opened the box to show the audience.
It was empty.
And she even randomly selected two lucky audience members to come on stage—not to kill them, but to have them check if the box contained any mechanisms, mirrors, or similar tools.
Being able to get up close with the beautiful magician, the two lucky audience members were overjoyed and dutifully checked the box, giving a thumbs-up to the others below the stage to indicate there were no problems.
There was a small interlude when one audience member tried to get handsy, but flames suddenly erupted from Zatanna's tailcoat, making the guy yelp in pain.
Still smiling, she showed the audience the ignition device hidden inside her clothes, indicating it was just a magic trick. After the two lucky audience members returned to their seats, the 'Appearing a Person' magic performance officially began.
She closed the box, which the audience had checked and confirmed was fine, placed it on a four-legged table, and then covered it with a red cloth.
If nothing went wrong with the next performance, after the red cloth was removed, a live person would appear inside the box,
and interact with the audience.
Under the audience's expectant gaze, Zatanna waved the magic wand in her hand, but just as she began the movements to misdirect the audience's attention before removing the red cloth, the red cloth flew off.
The red cloth, which should have been slowly revealed, just flew off like that. Connors could even see something like a bottle rocket underneath the red cloth.
Zatanna's face showed a hint of surprise; clearly, this scene was not part of her performance.
As the red cloth was removed, the box also exploded with a bang, sending wood chips flying everywhere. Harley Quinn, with red and blue pigtails, wearing a small red, black, and gold vest, and her thighs also covered in black stockings, made a dazzling entrance.
"The following magic will be performed by Harley~ Quinn!"
Harley Quinn brushed off the remaining wood chips from her body. Then, with a loud crash, a huge, heavy metal cage fell from the sky, perfectly enclosing Zatanna standing nearby.
"After 'Appearing a Person', what we're going to do now is make a person disappear into thin air!"
Wreaking havoc everywhere, huh? She's not going to flatten Zatanna into a pancake, is she? Connors' prayer subject changed back to Zatanna.
At this moment, the Green within him stirred. Before he could react, Xue Xi, sitting beside him, spoke first with a look of surprise:
"Look! It's blooming!"
The countless plants previously used by Connors to protect the crowd were all blooming at this moment, and various scents quickly filled the enclosed Stadium.
This had nothing to do with Connors, but he knew that "Poison Ivy" Ivy had arrived.
