Devil's Music
[352] Chapter 63 The Song of Water (1)
Deep in the Himalayas.
Humans had already conquered several peaks, but simple and fragile humans only conquered the summit and did not venture deep into the Old Centre before ascending to the summit.
One of the peaks that humans have not yet thought of conquering is not the summit, and there is a small opening inside the snowstorm mouth that spills out at this point, not even at the top. The black entrance was a square shaped like a human hand.
A colourlessly large cavity appeared at the entrance of the small, dark rectangular entrance, passing through a rock floor.
The unbelievably large space inside the mountain was more than 200 meters from the floor to the ceiling and also more than 500 meters in diameter.
At the center of the space, on either side of the stone statue, there were about thirty statues of Gargoyles, legendary creatures.
At the end of the gray statues, there was also a huge chair made of stone.
A red rug was spread like blood on a grey chair, and a man in purple was sitting at an angle in a dark, wide brim hat.
The man touching the beak of his hat raises his head, revealing a sharp nose and straight eyes on his white face.
A man with a sharp, cold look like he was going to freeze his heart just by looking at it, licked his lips with a red tongue.
“Khh... It's been a long time since I've smelled human air." It always smells like delicious souls. Huhu. ”
At the entrance to the cave he was looking at, a bat flew into the cave from a black entrance beyond which the view could not be seen.
The bat flies over the cavity, scary-like statues of Gargoyles flapping its wings, and hangs upside down where the man sits with the end of the stone chair's skull ornament.
When the eyes of the bat closing their eyes were opened, the ears standing in their eyes flashed a blue flame.
The slanted man looks up at the bat hanging over his head and smiles bloody.
“Should I look up? ”
The bat falls to the ground from its position, wondering if it was surprised by his reaction. The bat that was lying flat on the ground stood up straight and did not fit together, and the man opened his mouth.
“Now... let's hear what's been going on. ”
I didn't know what the squeaking bat was talking about, but the man looking down at the bat nodded or laughed. At some point, the man whose eyes were fluttering red raised him to his side.
“That's what the kiln said, right? It's right next to Pymon and Amduras... Heheh heh. Sounds fun, heh heh heh heh. Sounds fun! ”
The man got up from his seat and raised his arms.
“I, the Old Zion, speak! Go! Go get more information! ”
At his words, the thirty Gargoyle statues in front of the stone chair began to crack. The statue that had gradually fallen off the rubble suddenly broke, and several bats protruded from the Gargoyle statue and flew into the air.
When Gu Zion saw over six hundred bats pouring out at once and flying around the cave like whirlwinds.

When he arrived in the United States, he opened his eyes to Stupidus' words that woke him up. After the first-class guests got off, or woke up alone, I only yawned with my dizzy head.
‘I like being an American after closing my eyes... My head hurts a little. ’
A short time ago, you lowered your aircraft carrier and headed to the entrance. As always, there was a brief commotion due to his appearance, but he smiled familiarly as if he was waiting for him outside the airport.
“Brother!”
Since it wasn't Byeong-jun who wouldn't recognize the case because he covered his face, he approached him and patted him on the shoulder.
“So, how have you been? ”
“Yes, brother. ”
“Is Kiska taller? ”
“Haha, I'm surprised to see you. ”
In six months, Byeong-jun, who thought he would grow up, replied unevenly.
“Yes, well done. We've got the car ready. Let's go. ”
“Sorry for the inconvenience. ”
“That's my job, man. ”
The car waiting in the parking lot was a neat black limousine sent by Miroslav.
As I was driving to Red Kessle, I was still waving my head a little numb, and the window opened, like during the day, I took in a slightly cooler breath of early summer air.
It wasn't Georgia's clean air, but when it felt familiar to the city, Byeong-jun was a little distracted.
“How are you? ”
Byeong-jun, who was looking out the window, turned his head.
“Yes, nothing happened, and Arthur Hodgson arrived in the United States yesterday. He's staying at the Manhattan Hotel. ”
“Oh, really? ”
“Yes, you brought a new watch. Other than that, I heard you had some business to attend to. What's going on? ”
“Hehe, that must have something to do with my brother. ”
“Me? What do you want with me? ”
“Prepare a musician contract, on the same terms as Kevin. ”
“Huh? Why all of a sudden? ”
“You have to sign with Arthur. ”
Byung-jun tilted his head as if to say something.
“What kind of musician contract does the CTO of a watch brand make that makes you forget to wash away your ghosts, anyway? ”
“Haha, just take a look and decide, I'll go see you right away. ”
“Now?”
“Yes, I'll call you. ”
Gunn calls Arthur and makes an appointment immediately. When Bottle Jun and Gun dropped in front of Lincoln Center about 20 minutes after they promised to meet in the practice room in the basement of Lincoln Center, a small drum rang in the practice room with no one there.
Byeong-jun, who heard the drums as he went down the stairs, shrugged his ears. Even though it was not a difficult beat, Byung-jun recognized that it was a level of performance just by the sound of drums playing with the correct rhythm.
“Are you here for a famous drum session? ”
After opening the studio door, Arthur, who was playing the drum in the recording booth, hurriedly got up and came out.
Arthur, who excelled with a thankful expression, rushes in and grabs the gun.
“Kay!! I missed you!”
The gun grabs his hand with both hands and hugs.
“Haha, how are you, Arthur? ”
“Of course, I enjoy every day these days, haha."
“Oh, say hello. I'm Senior Soldier Private Jun of Pantageo. ”
Byeong-jun, who was introduced to the case, shook his hand trembling.
“You've seen him before, right? Nice to meet you, Private. ”
“Haha, how could I forget? You're the one who gave the watch to Kay. ”
Bottle Joon smiled interrogately, thinking that the driver had brought what he had thrown away in the car.
“Haha…… that……. ”
The gun struck two people on the back and said,
“Sit down and talk, us. ”
Once the three of you are seated on the couch in the control box outside the recording booth, the gun opens up first.
“Have you improved to the level I told you about? ”
Arthur nods with a confident expression.
“Yes, all the music you've presented so far can be played. ”
“Haha, good news. And the new product design is complete? ”
“Yes, I have it right here. ”
Arthur took out two beautifully wrapped orange boxes and two red-colored sunburst boxes on a black background. The curious face of the watch uncovered the contents and said with a bright smile.
“This model is also beautiful. How many do you produce? ”
Seeing the satisfaction in the case, Arthur smiles comfortably and says.
“This time, I had some time to produce 500 each. The process was over, and we were just finishing up. The Sunburst model is a gift for Kay and Mr. Lee. The orange goes to the owner of the White Falcon women's model. ”
A thoughtful gesture of gratitude for Arthur, who even brought a gift from Kiska, lowered the box.
“So that's a thousand. What is the price of this model? ”
“Same as before. ”
“Well…… I guess we'll start with Illyshire Usmanov's investment." ”
“Haha, you should be able to pick out the amount that Kay invested. This is all thanks to Kay's empowerment of early marketing. ”
“You're welcome. Then it's time to move on as planned. ”
“I see.”
Byeong-jun, who was unable to understand their conversation, intervened and asked.
“What do you mean, let me get this straight. What's the plan?”
Gun nods at Arthur.
“How long will it take for the musician contract you mentioned before to be ready? ”
“Huh? Uh... That's it. With Director Lynn's permission, it could be tomorrow. ”
“Director Lynn already knows. So you can do it by tomorrow? ”
“It's... possible. By the way, Arthur Hodgson? Are you sure you want to sign a musician contract? ”
Arthur nods slightly.
“It's a promise. ”
“Hmmm… A promise to Kay? ”
“Yes, I've decided to be his drummer. ”
“Drummer? O-then? ”
The gun intervened and said.
“Arthur will be in charge of the drummer in the formal album he promised the school. Shizuka and Kevin will help. ”
Byeong-jun said in a slightly excited voice.
“Oh, is that so? You said you'd get the album ready, and then you flew off to Georgia, and when did you ever make music? ”
The gun smiles and pushes the watch boxes aside.
“Haha, I haven't made any music yet. but I'm done with people to play with. ”
“Oh, then you'll need an additional musician contract and this album warranty contract. ”
“Apparently. ”
“Great! I'll have it ready by tomorrow. ”
When Byung-jun opens his fist and speaks excitedly, Arthur smiles and turns to the gun.
“You haven't finished your music, have you? ”
“I haven't finished it yet, I haven't started working on it yet, haha. ”
“Okay, so I'm going to do the next model, and then I'm going to come back to the United States. ”
“There will be plenty of time, so go ahead. When you're done, we'll send samples and scores to the UK, so you can practice the basics there and then move on. ”
“Have you designed it? ”
“Well, not yet. I've only got one concept. ”
“Sure, a regular album should be a lot of songs, but you'll have a lot of worries. ”
“Haha, something like that. ”
Byeong-jun got up from his seat and went out with his phone.
“I'll call the company and ask them to process the contract. ”
“Yes, brother. ”
Byeong-jun opened the door and went out and looked back.
“By the way, what's the name of the song you got the concept for? ”
The gun smiles slightly, alternating between Arthur and Bottle Jun.
“The song of water, the song of water. ”
