Views:

The night sky was dark and deep, dotted with countless stars, and Lucien once again tempered his spiritual power and soul with the help of the star power in the meditation induction.

Among these star powers, the star power line from one's own destiny main star is the clearest and easiest to control.

The spiritual power is dyed with pure starlight little by little, and spreads to the soul, making the soul seem to emit a faint shimmer of light.

This layer of light slowly merged into the soul, and Lucien only felt that his soul was getting stronger at an obvious speed.

Before becoming a high-level magic apprentice, the growth and strength of the spiritual power and soul are so obvious, so it only took a year for the witch to become a high-level magic apprentice from a novice magic apprentice. Lucien is no slower than her in this regard .

Under the effect of the storm potion, Lucien's mental power is stronger than usual, so the star power that can be mastered and used to temper himself is more than usual. Soon, Lucien's soul has a kind of A feeling of fullness occurs.

However, within this feeling of fullness, there is also a force that expands outwards, which made Lucien see an opportunity and did not stop the meditation.

The soul seemed to be expanding and shrinking, compressing and merging the star power with itself. Finally, for the first time, Lucien discovered that the soul seemed to have the illusion of being thick and solid.

After finishing the meditation, the hallucinations disappeared, but Lucien felt that his mind was clearer than ever before. He understood that he had finally become a formal magic apprentice, and his soul had a little mutation that others could not detect. The recovery speed of the attack that suppresses the will has nearly doubled compared to before, and the mental power perception has become a little clearer from being very vague.

"However, such a breakthrough will do a lot of damage to the body. Even if I persist in exercising, if I can't become a formal magician and use magical means to prolong my life in the future, I'm really afraid that I won't live to be sixty years old." The disappearance of the effect made Lucien feel deeply exhausted and weak, and fell into a deep sleep again after checking his own condition.

After becoming an official magic apprentice, Lucien's mental power will usher in a stage of rapid growth again, until the small obstacle of a high-level magic apprentice.

In the next few days, with the help of Lucien, the "original author", Victor successfully perfected the melody and details, and adapted it into a symphony. After repeated practice by the band, and with the assistance of Rhine, an excellent performer, Finally, when Othello came to listen, he played the music skillfully.

After listening to the Symphony of Destiny, Othello stood up in the empty concert hall and clapped for a long time: "Before, the value of this piece of music could not be accurately judged by the melody alone, but now I am relieved, this must be a piece that can Sensational piece, and again, Victor, you have a good student."

"Also, Lucien, you are indeed an unimaginable genius, but genius will always be criticized, especially if you can't even play the piano proficiently. If you can't keep it up, write The rhythm of producing a great work, you are ready to face overwhelming doubts and criticism."

"It's not a good thing for you to be famous too early."

Othello still regretted that Lucien did not devote his musical talents to serious religious themes, shook his head, turned and left.

Seeing Othello's back disappearing through the gate of the concert hall, Victor said to Lucien with some guilt: "I was so excited and impulsive by this piece of music that day, although no one will suspect you Plagiarism, although geniuses don't need a reason, but I didn't consider the pressure that becoming famous too early will bring to you."

"It's okay, Mr. Victor, I have a tough heart, and pressure will only give me motivation." Although Lucien himself doesn't want to become famous too early, but since he has reached this point, why not make good use of this reputation, at least he can When you start to get in touch with the upper class, you don't want to buy moonlight rose powder and you don't have a place to buy it. Maybe you can earn money from this reputation and create conditions for your own magic learning.

Victor nodded: "I believe in your will to face difficulties and pressures, but in the past year, I will try my best to block other things for you, so that you can concentrate on mastering the piano proficiently, otherwise a talented musician will not even be able to play the instrument. If you can’t play well, you will be strongly questioned.”

After talking about this, Victor continued: "Two days later, you and Lott will follow me to the backstage of the chant hall, and as the creator of the music, if you want, you can invite some friends to the concert, but the number of people Not too many, keep it below five people."

Although the concert in the Chant Hall is only for the upper class, and the tickets are equivalent to a commoner's savings of one to two years, that is, one gentaler, a certain amount will be reserved for musicians, conductors, performers, etc. in a humane manner. seats so that their relatives and friends can attend.

"Really? That's really great." Thinking of Uncle Joel's wish, Lucien replied happily, because he didn't know when he would leave the City of Psalms, and he didn't know if he would hold a concert in the Psalms Hall Opportunity.

Although Lucien himself does not feel regretful, and may even breathe a sigh of relief, if he can fulfill Joel's wish now, Lucien will certainly be very happy, "Uncle Joel, Aunt Alisa, John, Ivan , plus Elena, exactly five people."

In the small living room of Alisa's house, Lucien took advantage of dinner time to bring up the matter: "Uncle Joel, Aunt Alisa, Ivan, it's like this, my teacher, Mr. Victor, will be in St. There is a concert in the Chanting Hall, so I can invite some friends to attend, would you like to go?"

"Psalm Hall? Is it really possible?" Aunt Alisa asked excitedly, listening to a concert in the Psalm Hall is the dream of every Alto people, but expensive tickets and implicit discrimination make It is impossible for poor people like Alisa and most civilians to enter the chant hall.

Seeing Lucien nodding affirmatively, Joel was delighted but puzzled and said, "Aren't relatives and friends of musicians only invited?"

"Maybe a friend of a musician's student is also fine..." Alisa thought about the reason for Lucien, while Aiwen said with glowing eyes: "Go to the chant hall to listen to the concert? I must be the most charming person in Aderjan District Envious child."

Lucien thought that every guest who participated in the concert would get a sheet music, which would indicate the name of the track, composer, arranger, etc., so he answered without concealment: "I helped Mr. Victor complete a work, so there is Eligible to invite your friends."

"You? Helped Mr. Victor complete a work?" As a bard, Joel understood the difficulty of creating a piece of music better than Alisa and Ivan. The wooden fork in his hand fell on the table. on, "Little Evans, really?"

He originally wanted to say: "Little Evans, lying is not a good habit." But thinking of Lucien's behavior all the time, he didn't look like someone who lied about such things, so he simply asked back.

Lucien didn't explain, but smiled and said, "Uncle Joel, you will know when the time comes."

Joel shook his head and laughed: "Little Evans, you have grown up and have your own secrets. Although I still can't believe it, maybe our little Evans is really a musical genius? We have to rent some dresses , waiting for the start of the concert, waiting for the performance of your composition. I don’t think you will let me down.” Without hearing the music, Joel’s surprise quickly recovered, and he looked forward to it with a dubious attitude.

Aunt Alisa's face was rosy, as if she was several years younger, and then said with some concern: "We will tell John, but I don't know if he can come. It would be a pity if I missed the performance of your first piece of music .”

As for Lucien's invitation, Elena, who had already accepted his excellent work, was very happy, and nodded without hesitation. For her who wanted to develop on the road of music, the meaning of the concert in the Chant Hall It was even more important, and it showed that Lucien really regarded himself as a friend.

On Saturday, at 8 o'clock in the evening, outside the chant hall, one after another carriages slowly approached, all pulled by mighty and strong dragon-scaled horses.

Some of the carriages are gorgeous, some are low-key, some are exquisite, and some are majestic, but outside the carriages are all engraved with their own family badges. A number of well-dressed gentlemen and ladies got out of the carriage and took the music from the waiter. They entered the foyer of the chant hall under their leadership, and greeted each other.

"Lord Earl, I didn't expect you to have returned to Alto from your own territory." A middle-aged man saluted a man with fiery red hair, and other nobles around him also had a very respectful attitude towards this man, because He is Earl Hayne, the head of the Hayne family, one of the several big families in Alto, and Phyllis' uncle.

Earl Hein smiled slightly and said, "This is my little niece's teacher's concert, and a lot of things have happened to Alto recently, of course we old guys will come back to serve His Majesty the Grand Duke." He is a third-level grand knight, Although the blood of "Flame" is over fifty years old, there is no sign of aging at all, and his son, Harrington, who is thirty-two years old, has just become a sixth-level sky knight, consolidating the family's position.

"Lord Earl, you are truly a loyal knight." The other nobles praised one after another.

Earl Hayne took the music list, looked at it casually, and smiled curiously: "Lucien Evans? Why didn't I know that Victor had such a student, and he was already able to compose music."

Yvette, a noble lady, was puzzled and said: "Phyllis has been helping her teacher prepare the concert for a while, and I haven't seen her very much, but when I went to the manor for vacation a few months ago, she didn't mention it at all. It's really strange to pass this Lucien."

"Then let us look forward to the works created by this strange composer." Earl Hein said as he walked towards the foyer of the chant hall, and at the same time handed the sword to the guards, and let them check his belongings.

Because Grand Duke Violet was going to participate, the inspection was stricter to prevent the assassination from happening.

However, the guards did not check too carefully, because a super-large anti-magic circle was arranged in the entire chant hall, and magic and supernatural powers under the legendary realm would be banned. This is a masterpiece that the church took more than a hundred years to complete. .

Not long after Earl Hein entered, two teams of guards wearing red uniforms with a gold stripe on the left chest ran to clear the way. Surrounded by them, two low-key dark purple carriages drove over.
