Throne of Magical Arcana

——Ask for a recommendation ticket on Monday~

………………………………………………………………………

The hall of the Aalto Musicians Association is as bright, majestic, quiet and cool as ever, because no matter where it is, musicians are very rare compared to members of other associations, and musicians have to be busy with their own orchestra, For the work of the band, unless you need to borrow a quiet and complete piano room for practice, or cooperate with musicians to rehearse in the concert hall on the fifth floor, or go to the music library to find scores, books, etc., seldom come to the association early in the morning.

Moreover, the creation and practice of music requires quietness, and the Musicians Association has never tried to turn itself into a bustling place.

Behind the reception desk in the hall are two sweet and delicate blonde girls who can make people feel happy when they see them. They are talking with their immediate boss, Mr. Hank who is in charge of the daily affairs of the association, and they are tall, thin and serious. With a smile on his face, Hank pointed to a beautiful young girl beside him and gave them instructions.

This girl is about twenty years old, with impressive long black waterfall hair and a beautiful and delicate appearance. What makes people even more impressive is a giant giant with soft white hair and a mighty majesty squatting beside her. Wolf, it looks around quietly and spiritually.

"Ms. Louise, we will ask other musicians for you. If there is any gentleman or lady who thinks he has research on natural music, I will tell you." The girl with the common name Polly respectfully addressed the newcomer said the musician.

She is really an enviable and yearning object. She was born in an aristocratic family and had a talent for music since she was a child. She accumulated the wealth needed to buy holy water by relying on inherited inheritance and money earned from participating in performances, which inspired a strange blood close to nature and animals. This in turn greatly improved her performance ability, and finally became famous at this music festival.

But for Polly, it was Miss Elena who really admired her, because like them, she started as an ordinary reception girl, and relying on her own efforts to not give up, she became a high-income and high-status woman among the citizens. The best musicians are the ones most worthy of study.

Louise smiled and nodded, politely said: "Thank you, because this kind of music is rarely heard in Alto, so Mr. Hank and I don't know which gentleman or lady is good at it, we can only rely on you to meet each other one by one. asked."

At this time, the door inlaid with stained glass was pushed open, and a young man in a black dress and bow tie walked in unhurriedly, surrounded by several young musicians and musicians behind him.

"Who is he?" Polly has been working in the Musicians' Association for a year, but she has never met this handsome man. On the contrary, she knows all the gentlemen behind him. But even though she didn't know him, she vaguely felt that his face was very familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere far away.

Hank, who subconsciously turned his head back, was taken aback for a moment, then a bright smile bloomed on his serious face, and he quickly walked up to him: "Mr. Evans, welcome back!"

"Well, Mr. Evans?!" Reminded by Mr. Hank, Polly and her companions came to their senses. They had witnessed Mr. Evans' subversive behavior in the town square at the Alto Music Festival three years ago. His commanding style and artistic piano performance left a deep impression on his elegance and madness. If it hadn't been for a long time and he was young at that time, how could he be so slow to react.

"Good morning, Mr. Hank." Lucien smiled and nodded to Hank. After not seeing him for three years, Mr. Hank seemed to be more enthusiastic and polite when facing him.

Seeing Lucien walking towards the reception desk while saying hello, Polly and Polly bowed down excitedly and very respectfully: "Good morning, Mr. Evans."

Louise next to her was also a little excited and said, "Good morning, Mr. Evans."

Girls of their age had passed their "adolescence" by listening to Lucien's music, so they naturally had indescribable respect and admiration for him.

Lucien kept a polite smile and looked at the white wolf with pricked ears at Louise's feet: "Are you Miss Louise? I heard people's discussions and your music on the way back. , um, very good."

This is the truth. During dinner last night, Lucien specially asked the hotel band to play the famous works at the music festival. Of course, those that are easy to perform, like Victor’s "Symphony of Love" due to its large scale and strict orchestration, a complete orchestra is required to show the perfect effect. Ordinary small orchestras can only extract the main chord and some movements to perform. .

"Thank you, Mr. Evans, I still have a lot to learn." Louise blushed and thanked, because the unkind praise of a great musician of Lucien's level is, for newcomers, Both can bring about the consolidation and improvement of status, and Lucien has an extraordinary status among the younger generation, and being the object of his admiration must be the greatest compliment.

After greeting both Hank and Louise, Lucien looked at Polly and the others kindly: "Hi, my teacher, Mr. Victor, is he in the association? Is President Christopher in the association?"

After the last concert, Christopher has been serving as the honorary president.

"Hello, Mr. Evans." Polly was so excited that she couldn't help saying hello again, "Mr. Victor is currently the director of the association, and he has to deal with a lot of things after the music festival, so he arrived at the association early in the morning. Christopher will I have been coming to the association every day for a long time, and it seems that I have a new creative direction.”

Lucien nodded slightly. No wonder Natasha asked herself to come to the Musicians Association first. It seemed that she knew very well that Mr. Victor and President Christopher might be here.

After asking Phyllis, Elena and others, and finding that they hadn't arrived at the association today, Lucien, led by Hank, walked towards Victor's lounge and office on the third floor.

"Good morning, Mr. Evans." Along the way, the musicians Lucien met before greeted him very politely and respectfully.

Before leaving Alto, no matter how much Lucien has achieved and how much praise he has received, for the musicians and musicians who have witnessed his journey from a poor boy to a great musician, they will never forget that music in their hearts. The library keeper, the beginner who plays the piano... always overlap these images with the successful Lucien, that is, he became famous too quickly, giving people a feeling of "upstart".

But after three years, time has passed. Not only did Lucien not fall as quickly as many geniuses, but the two piano sonatas he created were both above the standard, which can be called excellent, especially the "Moonlight Sonata" which is even more classic and known as the current The most beautiful piano piece.

In addition, Lucien has never returned to Alto, which gave the people of the Musicians Association a lot of room for imagination and "brain supplementation". Therefore, when Lucien set foot here again, in their hearts, Lucien had already completed The transformation from a talented musician to a great musician is a big figure in the music industry who must be given enough respect!

In the hall, watching Lucien and Hank disappear at the top of the stairs together, Polly covered her face with her hands and said excitedly to her companion: "Mr. Evans is more temperamental and elegant than I imagined. What kind of music come back?"

"Yes, what kind of music will Mr. Evans bring back?" This is the common thought of Louise and other young musicians and musicians. It is really exciting, and it seems to be more exciting than the previous Alto Music Festival!

…………

"Unexpectedly, Chairman Christopher still maintains a strong creative passion." When he was about to reach the third floor, Lucien smiled and chatted with Hank.

Hanke smiled enthusiastically: "Although Chairman Christopher has held the last concert, his creation has never stopped. In his own words, life is endless and music is endless. Hehe, at the music festival After hearing the solemn and solemn chant on the Internet, he was inspired again and wanted to create a piece of religious music, but unfortunately there are too many classic works in this area, and it is too difficult to write satisfactory ones, so there has been no progress.”

Before the trend of theme music brought by Lucien, music that simply expressed the beauty of music occupied the mainstream, but more and more mainstream than it was religious music. This was Aalto's eternal theme after Charles I, the cardinal at the time, formulated the chant norms. It was before, it is now, and Lucien can see that it will be for a long time in the future. Therefore, a lot of classic works have emerged, and it is very difficult to surpass the predecessors.

"Religious music..." Lucien nodded thoughtfully.

The two chatted casually, and soon arrived at Victor's office.

"Mr. Evans, knock on the door yourself and surprise Director Victor." Hank suggested with a smile.

Lucien did not refuse, and lightly knocked on the door.

After a brief, slow and unhurried knock on the door, Lucien waited quietly, and with his keen hearing, he noticed that Victor was slowly pacing over to open the door.

He still maintains his original style, instead of becoming arrogant like many directors, asking questions from a distance from the door, and then giving different treatment depending on his status.

The door opened slowly. Victor didn't change much compared to three years ago. He still had a light mustache, black curly hair, and slightly melancholy blue eyes—a man of his age was no older than a young man. Maturity, there will be great changes after a few months, and unlike people who are over fifty, aging can be seen every year.

However, Victor seemed to be in good spirits, and his melancholy turned into tranquility. It seemed that the completion of the "Symphony of Love" gave him some kind of comfort.

Looking at Lucien in front of him, Victor froze with a slightly puzzled expression, and then he looked up and down, as if to confirm whether it was true.

After looking around, Victor stretched out his right hand, first paused slightly on Lucien's right shoulder, then patted it down, and said in a gentle and mellow voice: "I'm back, I'm finally back, just come back."

Although he tried his best to cover up his excitement and joy, and didn't distort his voice, he couldn't control the force when he patted Lucien's right hand, which seemed a bit hard.

This kind of force is no problem for Lucien who has a knight's body, but he feels a sincere love from it, which makes Lucien slightly sour, and the nostalgia lingering in his heart seems to have a new meaning Feeling, a melody that has troubled me for a long time is naturally complete and emerges beautifully.

Without outbursts of emotion, there is no real music.
