Chapter 166: Gilgamesh on stage

Everything starts with the unexpected death of Gray's mother, Marlena Fantasia.

Marlena Fantacia is to the West what Vera Sakalova is to the North. However, perhaps because of jealousy, she was too young when she died, and at that time, Gray Fantasia was a child who was not more than ten years old.

Although he is only a child, his achievements in dance are beyond the reach of others.

His father was a famous composer and his mother was a top dancer, and Gray was born into such a family, inheriting his parents' outstanding looks, excellent physical fitness, and extremely intelligent minds.

When he began to be sensible, he saw his mother's performance on the stage, and he was immediately fascinated, and since then he has been stuck in this fantasy world and cannot extricate himself.

From the age of three or four, Gray began to practice dance with his mother. Today, due to the long separation, the mother's smile has begun to fade in the memory, but what will never change is the charming brilliance on the mother's face when she danced.

Marlena Fantacia is an eccentric woman who has never played Gray's teachings according to common sense, but has used her own unique methods in exchange for Gray's dancing skills to improve by leaps and bounds.

Of course, this is also because Gray is smart enough and focused enough.

As a child of a few years old, Gray showed unusual talent and composure. He has no interest in many children of the same age, only music and dance can make him excited. He didn't even have any friends, and the only one who could be considered a friend was Roman Christophe, who was sent to his father to study music since he was a child.

Compared to Gray, Roman's personality is really much more lively, so the two often fall out of whack. The way they mess up is usually for Gray to keep a cold face and keep silent, while Roman chatters and counts him down. If you think about it carefully, this mode of getting along is no different from that of today nearly 20 years later.

Therefore, to this day, Gray only has this form of closeness to Roman Christopher.

Unlike Constantine, who performed on stage at a very young age, Gray has never shown himself in public, although he has no less strength than any young genius in the world.

That's because Marlena Fantacia doesn't think it's enough.

By the time Gray was eight or nine years old, his mother was already delighted to discover that her son was definitely a once-in-a-century genius!

So she hoped that Gray would not be too early to stand in the spotlight, not to be prematurely exposed to any external temptations that might be distracting, but to devote himself to laying the groundwork.

She enthusiastically developed a unique training program for Gray, and by the time Gray was twelve or thirteen years old, he would be a wonder that would amaze the whole world!

It's a pity that Marlena Fantasia herself didn't wait for that day at all.

Marlena Fantacia's young life came to an abrupt end on the stage she loved the most, and it was a stage accident. The ceiling of the theater collapsed, burying all the actors who were staging joys and sorrows.

Fortunately, Gray didn't go to that show, and he didn't witness the tragedy with his own eyes.

For a child, no matter how sad and sad he is, he is ignorant, and the difficult times are easy to get through after all. But at that time, Gray's father, Joseph Fantasia, was emotionally broken and could not live a normal life for a long time.

The most direct impact is that he will not allow Gray to dance anymore, nor will he allow Gray to touch anything related to dance again.

Gray was unwilling, but he couldn't fight, because once he danced again, his father would have an emotional breakdown and even fall into hallucinations.

Having lost his mother, he couldn't look at his father like this anymore, so Gray went to school every day like a normal child from then on, and it seemed as if he was saying goodbye to the world of dance.

Gray has never regretted this decision.

At first, I just felt that I couldn't let my father, who had always loved him, suffer like this, and that he should never do anything that stimulated him. Later, as he grew older and knew more dancers, Gray became more determined that taking good care of his father should also be his mother's greatest wish.

Because many of the best female dancers, they don't choose to have children at all, especially at the peak of their careers.

Female dancers who give birth to children and cannot train and perform for more than a year also have a huge impact on their bodies, and it is likely that they will not be able to return to their normal state for a long time, let alone return to the top.

But that's what Marlena Fantacia did, and when she gave birth to Gray, it was her most glorious and brilliant moment on stage.

So Gray thought that she must have loved her father very much, so she chose to give herself this precious life.

Of course, there are many such female dancers in the world, such as Vera Sakalova later.

The children of such female dancers often grow up in love and understand the true meaning of happiness very early. It's a pity that although God gave Gray a beautiful family, it was taken back too early.

However, no matter what kind of life is apparently lived after the transformation, it is absolutely impossible for someone like Gray Fantacia to leave dance.

Dance has melted into the blood and become a part of life, just as a mother means to herself.

So he began to carry his father behind his back, took the training plan that his mother had made for him before his death, and quietly began to practice on his own.

The hardships and bitterness encountered in it are not for outsiders, but fortunately, he persevered at that time, so he never wasted his talents.

As for the achievements that followed, it was thanks to Roman Christopher, who had a lot of ideas.

Roman said, you can go dancing, as long as you don't show your face and don't let anyone know who you are!

Soon after, at the age of twelve, as prophesied by Marlena Fantasia, Gray, the shining star suddenly appeared on the stage—the ever-masked Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh's appearance on stage doesn't even need anyone's introduction and citation, because his strength is too strong, and when you see it, you will understand that as a newcomer, he may become a role that no one can replace at all. And on his debut on stage, Gilgamesh proved this with his actions - his dances, with their beautiful imagery, super difficulty and strong personal style that are completely impossible to imitate, instantly captured the hearts of hundreds of millions of spectators, making him an instant hit and famous.

But it wasn't long before it became clear that Gilgamesh wore a mask, never gave interviews, never revealed his personal information, and was not trying to be a gimmick or create a hot spot. He really doesn't want to show his true face!
