Do you have any interesting stories from your trip?

I have many, Your Majesty.

Well, come then, tell us everything while we have some food.
72
Watch out, your majesty!
73
What's the matter, man?
74
Majesty, your chair is really dirty!
75
You ridiculous man!
76
What's the matter with you crazy knife?
77
You really scared us!
78
Apologies, Lord Asia, it was nothing.
79
Since we live at the palace,
80
we're either surrounded by eunuchs or guards.
81
There's not a minute of freedom.
82
We'd be much happier traveling the world like you do.
83
Say, Lord Asia, why don't we switch roles for a change?
84
Your Majesty, I don't think that's a good idea.
85
Of course we were merely joking.
86
So we hear your son is extremely interested in the Western world.
87
Why don't you bring him to the Royal Academy to study with the young princes and princesses?
88
Thank you, Your Majesty.
89
Valimmi is good at all kinds of music.
90
Why don't I go and ask him to play for you?
91
That noise is coming from over there.
92
Wait, isn't that the hall where the Emperor himself lives?
93
It seems he's the source of the music.
94
Hey, who are you and what are you doing in the Imperial Palace?
95
You're not allowed in here.
96
It's a weirdo!
97
There's an assassin!
98
Be careful, Your Majesty!
99
Move out of the way, crazy knife!
100
Oh, it's just Sheree and my dear Cassie.
101
Oh, Father, Your Majesty!
102
Father, Your Majesty!
103
Hey, what are you making all this racket for, girls?
104
Majesty, we discovered this intruder here.
105
Yeah, and he was making this noise like straggled chicken!
106
My, what an inventive mind!
107
Well, now, this must be Princess Cassie.
108
I'm the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Waltz Asia.
109
And this is my son, Valenmi.
110
I pay you greetings, Your Majesty.
111
Well, this here is a Halloween costume from the West.
112
And I was playing the violin.
113
My father asked me to perform for you.
114
I really didn't mean to scare these ladies.
115
Well, you did scare us with all your talk.
116
Your Majesty, maybe you should talk inside.
117
Valenby grew up in the West.
118
He knows a lot about things over there.
119
Do you have anything interesting you could show the girls, Valenby?
120
Okay.
121
Okay.
122
Huh.
123
This is a music box.
124
It can play music.
125
This is an alarm clock.
126
We use it to tell the time.
127
Oh, that's so ordinary.
128
We have plenty of those things.
129
Ah, my dear ladies, I guarantee you haven't seen this before.
130
Huh?
131
You're right!
132
What is it?
133
This is a yo-yo!
134
It's just a yo-yo, Cassie.
135
Yo!
136
Walking the dog around the world!
137
This isn't an ordinary yo-yo.
138
It's made of aluminum and has a ball-bearing center.
139
Watch this!
140
Watch out, your majesty!
141
Don't block my view!
142
That's so awesome!
143
That's nothing special.
144
Wow, these newfangled western inventions are interesting.
145
Hey, do you think you can let me play with it?
146
No problem, Senorita.
147
Cassie!
148
No, Cassie, no, no, no,
149
no. Oh, I'm so sorry, Cherie.
150
Valenby, why don't you go out and show the girls some more of your wonderful toys?
151
Okay.
152
Huh?
153
Yeah, let's go out and play.
154
No!
155
So, Lord Asia, do you have something interesting that we could use to kill some time?
156
Yes, I brought a game back from the West for your majesty.
157
You use this stick to hit a ball into a hole in the ground.
158
The game is a lot of fun and good for the body and mind.
159
It's a popular game.
160
Then let us go and play immediately.
161
Hey, Valenmi, do you have any other fun toys?
162
Of course.
163
Let me show you something really cool.
164
Huh?
165
A walking stick?
166
No, no. This is a telescope.
167
You can use it to see further.
168
Let me see, let me see.
169
My telescope must be broken.
170
I'm seeing all kinds of strange things.
171
That's Birdie and Chatty.
172
Those two are arguing again.
173
Why can't they just talk things through?
174
I mean, they're supposed to be friends.
175
It's just a stupid toy.
176
I'm just going to read my books.
177
Do you have anything more fun to show me?
178
Your Highness, I can tell you're really open to new things,
179
unlike a certain somebody else.
180
Alright, I've got just the thing.
181
This is so much fun.
182
Hey, what is this?
183
A gun.
184
Huh?
185
Gun?
186
Why is there water leaking in here?
187
This is a water gun invented by the West.
188
It can squirt 350 milliliters of water in five seconds to completely drench your target.
189
Where's that coming from?
190
Wow, that is so cool.
191
So what can we play?
192
Shoot.
193
Just like that.
194
This is fun.
195
Come play, Cherie.
196
I don't want to play.
197
I'm reading.
198
Three, two, one, start.
199
I got you now!
200
Haven't you fools played enough?
201
You got me again!
202
I've had enough of this!
203
You guys play all you want!
204
I'm gonna go!
205
Cassie, it's time for school!
206
Hello, Cassie!
207
It's time to get out of bed!
208
Mushroom?
209
Mushroom, what happened?
210
Where's Cassie?
211
The princess got up really early today.
212
She put on her clothes and went to school by herself.
213
Oh, this is great.
214
I haven't had a relaxing sleep like this for a long time.
215
And so the game begins.
216
Hey, Valemi, what is this called?
217
This is called a skateboard, Your Highness.
218
Hey everyone, who wants to learn?
219
Me, me, let me!
220
Me, choose people and me!
221
Oh, that board of his can help students get some more exercise.
222
It's pretty good.
223
To tell the truth, I want to try too.
224
Ah, the higher I go,
225
the more fun it is.
226
Huh?
227
Oh!
228
Hey, Sheree, come give this a go!
229
Sweet lady, stop reading for a second and just play!
230
Where in the world is this guy from?
231
How's he so good?
232
What's so good about him?
233
That's enough, everyone!
234
Assemble, please!
235
Let me introduce a new classmate, Valemi.
236
His Majesty sent him here to further his studies,
237
but he's learned a lot of things from abroad,
238
So we would all do well to learn something about Western culture from him whenever we can.
239
Seems like they hold him in high regard.
240
I bet he'll take over the post-it's class monitor soon.
241
He better not.
242
Okay, you can all go back to play.
243
But wait for me, I want to play too.
244
Wait, Professor Soar, have you lost your mind?
245
Oh, I can't help it.
246
It looks so exciting.
247
Come on, let's play.
248
Professor Soar.
249
Well, this is great.
250
You're worse than I am at this.
251
You can't even stand on it.
252
I bet Cassie thinks you're useless.
253
No, I can do it.
254
Sheree, just let it go, my girl.
255
Daddy, even you?
256
Cassie!
257
Cassie!
258
Cassie!
259
Please don't go, Cassie!
260
Cassie!
261
No way!
262
That won't happen!
263
What happened?
264
Take a break, Aledmi.
265
Here.
266
Thanks.
267
I think our precious class monitor still hates me.
268
I don't think so.
269
Cherie was like that to me when I first started.
270
She just likes to study.
271
Maybe she'll like to study.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
