Victor is not a stupid fool who only focuses on music. He feels very clearly about Wolfe's hostility. His heart is filled with anger and amused. When screening and comparing musicians, it happened that I entered into the final discussion with him. If anyone is to blame, I am afraid that Wolfe himself is better at writing reviews than composing music, and has forgotten his musical pursuit.
"Of course, Wolf, I've written a new piano concerto and I'm very satisfied. Do you want to listen to it in advance?" Victor countered with a smile. His piano concerto has been registered with the Musicians Association Worried that Wolfe would plagiarize after listening to it.
Wolfe didn't expect Victor to sweep away the slump and decadence for several consecutive weeks, full of confidence, his face immediately turned livid, he groaned twice, and said stiffly: "Victor, I'd better stay a little curious, I hope three Months later, in the chant hall, don’t let me down.” Victor was so confident that Wolfe was afraid that after listening to his piano concerto, not only would he not think of harsh words to hit him, but he would let the three of them Moon eats poorly and sleeps poorly.
Victor spread his hands and said with a smile: "It's a pity, I hoped you would give me some advice."
Wolfe didn't want to continue on this topic. He turned his eyes and saw Lucien next to Victor, seeing his old and cheap linen clothes, so he raised his chin and said contemptuously, "Victor, when did you know the lowly man?" uneducated pauper?"
Although Wolff's great-grandfather, their family has not received a title for several generations, but no matter what, Wolff's distant relatives still have a viscount and several lords, which does not prevent him from being a nobleman. As a self-proclaimed musician, he looks down on Victor, a commoner-born musician, and always maintains a cold and noble attitude, let alone a poor man like Lucien. Coupled with his dislike and hatred for Victor, seeing Lucien next to him , Wolfe seemed to see a disgusting mouse running to his dining table.
Lucien's almost abusive tone towards Wolfe, except for a little anger, is all deeply funny. No matter where, as long as there is a difference in property, rich or poor, or high or low status, some people will artificially rely on them to distinguish "high and low" "Modern society is better. This strange fusion of the Renaissance and the Dark Middle Ages is completely naked and proud of it. If you want to change this kind of discrimination, you can only rely on your own strength.
Victor was born as a commoner, and he also had an indescribable dislike for Wolfe's attitude. He frowned and said seriously: "Pay attention to your words, Wolfe, this is the road of a student who just followed me to learn music recently." Sean, um, a young man with great musical talent."
Although Victor himself does not discriminate against the poor, the atmosphere, atmosphere and education of the whole world still have a profound influence on him. Therefore, when introducing Lucien, in order to prevent him from being discriminated against, he added his own feelings towards Wolfe. Disgusted, Victor couldn't help bragging, even until now, he didn't know if Lucien was born with a lack of sense of music.
"Hahaha, he, hahahaha, he has a talent for music? A lowly poor man who has never been edified and educated by music, has a talent for music? Victor, I think your brain has become abnormal because of preparing for the concert "Wolf seemed to have heard some very funny joke, he laughed so hard that he lost his grace, he leaned forward and backward, the feeling of aggrieved just now completely disappeared, and he laughed loudly at Victor and Lucien.
Victor didn't expect that his kindly bragging would cause such a big reaction from Wolff. While lamenting that he couldn't understand Wolff, he could only continue to hold on: "Alto is the city of chant and the capital of music. , everyone here is favored by the Lord and nurtured by music, even the poor, there are many outstanding bards, and some people's musical talent is a gift from the Lord, born with it, nurtured by the day after tomorrow And education is just to wipe off the dust that hides the brilliance of gemstones and let it bloom its original brilliance, isn't it?"
Wolf shook his head with a smile, and pointed at Lucien: "There are indeed such musical geniuses, but since they are bestowed by the Lord, the power of bloodline divine grace should be easily aroused, so Her Royal Highness Princess Natasha is, Wei Your Excellency the Earl of Erdi is, and your 'student', what's your name, well, Lucien, definitely not, if he can become an excellent musician, I will publicly apologize to you and him in the "Music Review" , and no more concerts."
Complacent, Wolf quickly made a definite guess, but he was cautious, and deliberately added the word "excellent" before the musician. Anyway, as long as the time comes, as long as it is not recognized as excellent, even if Victor uses this sentence to find You can also deny yourself.
According to the information that Lucien has learned these days, Princess Natasha is the only bloodline of Grand Duke Violet, the Countess of Violet, and this title is the title that every Grand Duke must inherit first, because The Violet family is the Violet family. Her musical talent is very good, and she is good at violin, flute, and harpsichord. If it weren't for her status, she might have become an outstanding musician. Of course, as a knight, Natasha is also an outstanding fifth-level grand knight , only twenty-five years old, not far from the rank of Sky Knight.
Earl Verdi is also a member of the Violet family. He is the Grand Duke’s nephew. He has written several excellent pieces of music. He is currently not in his own territory, but serves as the highest officer of the city guard in Alto. He has just become a fifth-level university knight.
After finishing speaking, Wolfe didn't look at Victor, and walked towards the stairs with a smile.
Victor shook his head in disgust, and said to Lucien: "Don't pay attention to this narrow-minded, bitter, and vulgar guy, just settle down and do your own study well. You can take care of other things in the afternoon, and come to Elena formally tomorrow morning , ask her to take you to the library, well, I will take one day off in the next week, whether it is Saturday or Sunday, it depends on how you discuss with your companion who manages the library together, well, I will go to the concert hall."
Watching Victor leave, Lucien turned his head and handed the contract document to Elena: "I will trouble you tomorrow, Elena."
Elena smiled, and there was a shallow dimple on the left: "This is my job, Lucien. By the way, don't pay attention to Mr. Wolfe. Most people in the association don't like him, except for that A few directors, um, directors with titles."
"Hehe, Mr. Wolf, who always looks at us with his chin proudly, will look at the chins of several directors with humility and respect?" Lucien sarcastically said according to the meaning of Elena's words, It made Elena giggle.
After chatting and joking with Elena, Lucien was busy going back to investigate the entrance of the sewer, so he bid farewell.
"Lucien!" After walking a few steps, Lucien suddenly heard Elena's shout, and looked back at her suspiciously.
Elena clenched her right hand into a small fist and waved it: "Lucien, I believe in you. Even if you can't become a musician, you must become an excellent musician. Let's see what Mr. Wolfe's expression will be then!"
Before entering the Musician's Association, Elena's life was between the poor and the common people, so she empathized with Wolff's tone just now and was very dissatisfied.
Lucien waved his fist imitating her, and said perfunctorily, "Sure!"
※※※
After nine o'clock in the evening, except for a few drunks, there were no people in the Aderjan District. In the silence of the night, there were occasional low barking sounds of wild dogs. For the poor in this world, they always go to bed early and get up early. Rich and colorful nightlife, also need to get up early in the morning, busy for the day's livelihood.
At dinner, after telling Uncle Joel and Aunt Alisa the good news that he had found a very good job with the help of Mr. Victor, Lucien returned to his hut under the pretext of studying, meditating and waiting. Let's look at the analysis of the magic you are going to learn.
Quietly flashed out of the hut, gently closed the wooden door, and Lucien walked lightly towards the entrance of a remote sewer that he had explored in the afternoon. After he analyzed the four magic circles, he could use magic materials to arrange and use some of them. The weakened and auxiliary versions of official magic, such as "micro-effect fossil into mud", are useful magic for opening secret passages in one's own house to the sewer, and building a magic laboratory in the sewer, so that there is no need to go in and out at that time. people doubted.
After patiently observing that there was no one around, Lucien cautiously entered the sewer entrance.
This time, although the stench and the greasy and dirty surroundings still made Lucien uncomfortable and uncomfortable, they couldn't stop his enthusiasm for learning magic. He shuttled through the sewers, looking for remote corners, And a crude sewer map is marked and drawn in the soul library.
And in the process, Lucien also scraped off a lot of moss that glowed faintly on the wall, and put them in his left trouser pocket, because this kind of moss is called "fluorescent moss", which is an apprentice-level informal magic "forbidden light moss". "Spell" spell-casting materials.
While searching, Lucien felt strange that he still didn't come across the beggars that Correa said lived in the sewer. The surrounding area was quiet, except for the slight sound of Lucien's own footsteps, which felt very eerie.
Soon, Lucien found a place that was very suitable for magic experiments. This was a three-way road. The place a dozen or so steps away was blocked by boulders, and the left side led to a deeper place. As long as the location is good, it can be easily found Are there people approaching to the left and behind.
Squeezing out a cloud of sulfur powder from the right hand pocket of the linen jacket, Lucien sighed a little. If he could not become an official magician, it would be very troublesome just to carry spell-casting materials with him. He only had four kinds, and he could store them separately. Among the four pockets, those with dozens or even hundreds of kinds must use special magic robes with rows of small pockets in the belt.
Recalling the analyzed spell structure and the magic construction process he understood, Lucien stretched out his right hand, pinched his fingers, and the fine sulfur powder slowly slipped from his hand, making a strange and awkward sound, his face Under the fluorescent light, the expression on his face was serious and gloomy.
