Hearing the familiar melody and watching the little elf puppet struggling to move its stiff body to keep up with the rhythm, its movements bizarrely distorted due to its limited mobility, Mai Ge was utterly bewildered.
In his previous life, he was a big V who frequented Weibo for a long time, so he was naturally familiar with this hit song that once swept Bilibili. But this song can appear anywhere, so why is it in the music box that Mai Ge is planning to use to teach Amy nursery rhymes?
And if it was just the song, that would be one thing, but what was with this forced to dance elf? While its long skirt and long legs might make it dance quite well, the puppet had very few joints that could move, so aside from its hand movements, everything else was distorted and looked awkward.
"This system believes that the song 'Gokuraku Jodo' has a wide range of popularity and a young audience, which fits the category of children's songs. In addition to the song itself, it can also inspire children's dance, making it a model of edutainment." the system's calm voice came.
"Education through entertainment? System, come here, I promise I won't kill you." Mai Ge couldn't help but laugh in exasperation. If 'Gokuraku Jodo' could be turned into a children's enlightenment dance, then wouldn't 'Ifuudoudou' become a textbook example?
"Wow!"
Amy looked up at the little elf in the music box, her bright blue eyes wide open, completely captivated. She held the Ugly Duckling in one arm and waved her little hand in the other, looking eager to try it out.
The Ugly Duckling, its neck clamped, rolled its eyes and strained to see what the elf was dancing, its short legs trembling involuntarily.
"Such beautiful music, and...is this a dance? It looks so interesting." Yabemia was also staring intently at the little elf.
Although she felt that the little figure's movements seemed a bit awkward and disjointed, but this was the first time she had heard such a special song. The accompaniment, played on some unknown instrument, seemed to have a magical power, bringing a strong impact, and it seemed that even her body wanted to sway along involuntarily.
However, she didn't know what language the song was sung in. It sounded a bit rap-like and not the common language in continent, but she always felt that the female voice had a seductive quality that aroused her imagination.
"Look, whether it's a four years old child, a seventeen or eighteen years old teenager, or even a small animal, everyone's attention has been drawn to this beautiful song, and they all want to catch a glimpse of the dance of the 'Gokuraku Jodo'." The system's slightly smug voice rang out, seemingly quite satisfied with Amy and the others' reaction.
"It's a good thing you lazybones just used the Japanese version of the song." Mai Ge looked at the three little ones who were completely mesmerized and was indeed a bit surprised. At the same time, he was also somewhat glad that the system did not use the common language of the Nolan Continent to cover the song, otherwise the lyrics would have been quite embarrassing.
"If the host needs it, just add one gold coin, and this system can send the cover version in the common language of the Nolan Continent to the music box within five minutes." the system replied immediately.
"No need, I refuse, get lost!" Mai Ge said expressionlessly. He hadn't expected the system to not just sing the cover directly, but only to earn that one gold coin for the cover fee. Its greed was unparalleled.
"Daddy, this is so interesting! Little Amy wants to learn!" Amy reached out and tugged at Mai Ge's sleeve, who seemed to be standing there in a daze, and said expectantly.
"Little Amy wants to learn?" Mai Ge's expression immediately became strange. The worst case scenario had come true.
"Yes! I think it would look really good to dance to it. Little Amy wants to learn, I want to learn right now!" Amy nodded, put the Ugly Duckling in her hand on the chair next to her, and started wiggling her little arms.
"If possible, can I learn it too..." Yabemia hesitated and whispered, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, but her heterochromatic eyes were full of longing.
Mai Ge looked at the two girls, their eyes filled with anticipation and longing, and hesitated for a moment.
As a father, he certainly didn't want Amy to learn Gokuraku Jodo as her first dance lesson. But after thinking about it carefully, the dance for this song wasn't really that outrageous. His gaze fell on Amy, and he roughly imagined her swaying her short legs as she danced Gokuraku Jodo. He couldn't help but smile. It would be super cute, right?
As for Yabemia, Mai Ge's gaze swept over her. Dancing in a maid outfit would probably be quite amusing, as she certainly fits all the criteria of large breasts, a slim waist, and long legs.
"Alright, then you two can learn it." Mai Ge's hesitation didn't last long. Since Amy and Yabemia both liked it, their happiness was more important. He'd be the first to see them dance anyway, and he could correct any mistakes later.
"Daddy, you're so good!" Amy shook Mai Ge's hand, her expression incredibly happy.
"Thank you, Boss." Yabemia clenched her fists, happily tiptoed, but immediately returned to a standing posture, though her face still couldn't hide her joy.
Since childhood, she had dreamed of one day being able to dance like those girls in beautiful dresses on Peace Memorial Day, performing on the central stage of Aden Square, bringing cheers and applause from the audience with her graceful dance moves.
But from childhood to adulthood, apart from that one day each year, she has never even seen a dance performance, let alone learned one.
But things are different now. The little figure that Mai Ge gave to Amy is magical. It seems to never get tired. If it can keep demonstrating, Yabemia is confident that she can learn it, even if it takes a long time.
Seeing the two happy, Mai Ge smiled as well. However, when his gaze fell on the stiffly twisting puppet, he couldn't help but frown. If this was the level of fluency and standard of the movements, then what Amy and Yabemia had learned would be a clumsy version of Gokuraku Jodo. This problem needed to be solved first.

Just then, a chart suddenly popped into Mai Ge's mind.
