Lucian's original plan was to use the piano version of the Symphony of Fate to inspire Victor, and even let him directly complete the melody and improve the details and then adapt the symphony piece, so that the surprise he caused was limited to a few people such as Victor, Lot, and Rhine, and would not be known by the vast majority of people, so that he would become a freak in their eyes, so as to attract the attention of others, after all, he could write such a piece of music in less than two months after studying music, which is unique in the "History of Continental Music" that Lucian has seen.

But at this time, Lucien had no way to shirk it, and agreed without hesitation: "Okay, Mr. Victor." ”

As Victor said before, geniuses don't need a reason, and in this matter, others at most suspect that they are plagiarists, and they don't think about their identity as a magician at all, or connect themselves with devils, demons, etc., because these seem to be two completely opposite things.

In the large number of religious texts in the music library, music is described as a precious treasure given to mankind by the god of truth, and a weapon that inspires people to move forward in difficult times.

And from the reading of travelogues and religious classics during this time, as well as from getting along with Lot, Phyllis, and Herodotus, Lucien vaguely found that there was a barrier between the church and the aristocracy, although Lott They were still pious and full of reverence for the God of truth, but in casual words, there often appeared something like "religious matters belong to God, and noble matters belong to the king", which is the case in the theocratic Aalto, but what about other countries?

Therefore, Lucien judged that it was impossible for the church to perform a divine examination without evidence, especially since the musicians' guild was closely related to the nobility and the church.

The only thing to worry about is that when you are invited to perform or attend a banquet in the future, if you encounter an important person coming, you will inevitably be checked in order to prevent assassins.

However, if you are already a musician with a lot of status, status, and reputation before that, the inspection you encounter will definitely become superficial and lax, and it will be easy to deal with, and of course, if the important person himself is very strong, then the inspection will be very simple, or even none.

Rhine picked up a quill and a stack of white paper from his desk, walked over to the piano and handed it to Lucian.

Putting the white paper on the music stand, Lucien picked up the quill and was about to start writing, when he suddenly sneezed several times, his weak body felt a burst of coldness, and he couldn't help but tremble, and the rain on his hair splashed onto the white paper with the sneezing action, and a little water halo was revealed.

Only then did Victor notice Lucian's condition, soaking wet: "Lucian, you don't have an umbrella?" Phyllis blushed slightly, because Lucian's linen tunic was tightly attached to his body, showing off the lean but toned figure he had worked out in recent months.

"Yes, but it's raining heavily outside, and I'm running here again. Lucien didn't say that he came straight to the rain.

Victor looked relieved and moved: "Lucian, I have several sets of clothes in the lounge, you and I are about the same height and size, go and change into them, it looks like you're going to get sick." ”

"Go, Lucian, leave the music to me, and I'll see if I can restore it in its entirety. Rhine urged Lucien as well, taking the quill from his hand.

During this action, Lucian had a brief contact with Rhine's fingers, and it was a little strange to find that Rhine's body temperature was a little colder than his own soaked guy, and it seemed that his physique was a little special?

............

In another room in the lounge, Lucien dried his hair and body, and changed into Victor's white shirt, black dress jacket, black skinny pants and leather shoes, and suddenly felt dry and refreshing.

Then Lucien looked in the mirror to arrange his clothes, and unexpectedly found that he was wearing a formal suit for the first time, although he was of ordinary height, he had black hair and black eyes, and he had a bit of a delicate and handsome taste, but it was not that weak feeling, but a quiet and calm handsome.

Lucien opened the door of the room and walked out, Rhine, who was reconstructing the recorded music, was immersed in the music and did not react, while Victor turned around, looked at Lucian from head to toe, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, what a beautiful young man." ”

Seeing Lucien like this, the little doubt that remained in the hearts of Phyllis, Lot, and Herodotus completely disappeared.

Judging people by their appearance is not the prerogative of the people of the earth.

"Lucian, come and see if Mr. Rhine has written the music earlier. Victor beckoned Lucien over.

When Lucien passed by Lot, Lott whispered with a very aristocratic, standardized, and polite smile: "Lucian, I hope to be able to discuss music with you often in the future." ”

"No problem. Lucien replied equally politely,

Phyllis heard the conversation between the two, and after biting her plump lips with snow-white teeth, she also whispered with a faint flush: "Lucien, I apologize to you for my previous prejudice, and I hope to get along with you in the future and discuss music well." ”

Although Lucien's refusal to give up today and the touching music shook Phyllis's heart deeply, it was not to the extent that she liked it, and the flush on her face was more of a shyness and hesitation.

Only Herodotus stood on the other side with mixed emotions, with his head down, looking at his toes, and did not speak.

After accepting Phyllis's apology, Lucien went to the piano and discussed the music with Rhine and Victor.

............

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Phyllis saw through the window the carriage of Baron Othello entering the Society through the much smaller rain curtain.

Victor motioned to Lucian to put the score in order, and said happily: "Actually, the part of the melody that you failed to compose has almost been shown in your emotional performance just now, so I can add most of it so quickly." It seems that music really needs emotional resonance, and piety and gratitude are one of them, so music with religious themes is always more moving than music that simply expresses the beauty of music. ”

"Well, although there is still a part of this piece that has not been perfected, it is just a matter of some details, and you can register with the association first. As for Othello, I don't think he could resist such a great piece of music, and I'm sure Her Royal Highness won't mind changing the track. ”

Lucien's playing just now is to burst out the emotions that he has been suppressing in his heart under the emotions of anger and unwillingness, and he will miss his relatives, the pain of losing everything in the past, the struggle against all kinds of setbacks and difficulties encountered, and the struggle for not wanting to give up. The idea of not giving up was all integrated into the piano playing, and if it weren't for the deliberately imperfect melody itself, I am afraid that Lucien would have played it heartily in one breath, and even so, many melodies were naturally produced under his hands, they were not delicate and perfect, but they were enough to inspire Victor to make up for it.

Led by Victor, Lucian followed him to a room on the third floor, where sat an old gentleman with glasses and white hair, he glanced at Victor and Lucian with pale gray eyes, and said flatly: "Victor, have you finished your symphony?"

"Joseph, it's not me, it's this student of mine, Lucian, who has written an excellent work, and I brought him to register. After Victor replied, he introduced Lucian: "This is Mr. Joseph, a veteran music critic who has listened to most of the music, including elven music, and is also a probationary priest, who will preliminarily identify whether your music is plagiarized, and then use the power of the Lord to leave a time mark on it, and similar melodies that appear after this time in the future will be considered plagiarism of your work." ”

Joseph looked at Lucian as a stranger and said suspiciously, "How long have you been studying music with you? Then he took the score, pushed his glasses, and looked at it carefully.

"This, three months. Victor wiped a cold sweat that didn't exist, counting the time Lucian had started learning words, and rounding it off.

Joseph let out an "ah" and looked up from the score: "Three months?" and then quickly buried his head in disbelief and looked at the score, with a funny and angry attitude, Victor, are you here to tease me?

Victor didn't answer, just waited by with a smile on his face, waiting for him to finish.

The smile on Joseph's face slowly faded, gradually became solemn, and then beat the beat, humming the melody silently.

His expression soon became wonderful, as if he was immersed in the world of music, and even his hands could not help but clench, loosen, wave, and twitch, like a conductor with a fierce style.

After more than ten minutes, Joseph breathed a long sigh of relief, and with a sense of relief and encouragement, he said to Victor: "What a great work, it reminds me of the battle in the past in the Dark Mountains to assist the Knights against dark creatures and evil creatures, and in that extremely dangerous time, if we hadn't thought of the Lord's teachings and gave up on ourselves in a desperate situation, Victor, you wouldn't know me." This is a great piece of music that never compromises and never gives up in the face of evil. ”

"Wait, you said it was written by your student?" Joseph remembered the conversation just now, stood up suddenly, his glasses slipped off the bridge of his nose, and fell on the table, making a loud broken sound: "He has only been studying music for three months?!"

His expression was slightly distorted with shock.

"As you can see. Victor recounted Lucian's life experience according to his own understanding, and finally Joseph reluctantly accepted it, he picked up his eyes, waved it, and said: "Well, genius always appears to shatter our common sense, confidence, uh, and glasses, at least I don't think it's plagiarism, except that there is no music with the same melody as it, it is consistent with Lucian's steadfast perseverance and fighting spirit." ”

"However, in order not to be questioned by others, Lucien needs to come up with a piece of music every one or two years that is not inferior to the work, and usually show a talent that is in line with your genius. Joseph, who was a great fan of this piece of music, felt that there could be no better music.

"In a year or two, I shouldn't be here, and I don't think I need to copy much ....... Lucien watched as Joseph used his magic spell to copy the score and make a time mark.

When Joseph had finished it, he casually asked, "Do you have a name for your music?" ”

"Let's call it fate. ”

............

After registering, leaving Joseph, who was still looking at the score with admiration, Victor took Lucien outside Othello's office.

"Maybe Othello's expression won't be much better than Joseph's. ”

As he knocked on the door, Victor burst out laughing, with a lightness and humor he hadn't felt in months.
