Light and sweet floral fragrance, slightly fishy earthy atmosphere, slightly cold night breeze like disappearing from Lucien's side quickly disappeared, everything around is only a bright flashing starry sky, and that round was not covered The beautiful silver moon that lives in the starlight.

The connection between the reflection in the soul and the main star of destiny emerged again, eagerly absorbing the power of the main star of destiny and blending in with itself, and radiating a faint light.

Under the fusion and compression of the power of starlight, Lucien's soul seems to have changed, and then slowly began to condense into "substance".

I don't know how long it took. When Lucien opened her eyes, her pupils were as deep and dreamy as there were countless stars.

Closed and opened again, the eyes returned to normal, Lucien felt that the spirit was unprecedentedly full, and the soul had an obvious improvement, as if some tiny things had condensed, just like the dust of wraiths.

"What is the composition of the soul? Is it a special element or a uniquely constructed wave field? What does meditation enhance?" Lucien is very interested in the change of the soul, but is limited to the lack of knowledge and materials, and can only guess from scratch. , "However, only when the soul has undergone such a change, can a spell model be constructed in it."

After finally becoming a high-level magic apprentice, Lucien turned all his attention and goals to the official magician. In this world, only reaching this level can be considered to be beyond the power level of ordinary people, and has a good strength. The knight who inspired the power of the bloodline can also obtain the status and identity corresponding to the strength.This is not like the existence of musicians. It is more because of the preferences of clergy and nobles. If one day they abandon music, the status of musicians will be greatly reduced.

…………

Because Natasha had ordered the officials of the City Hall before leaving Aalto, and because of the identity of Lucien ’s famous musician, when handling legal documents such as “identity documents” and “certification documents”, Lucien only used After half a day, it normally takes seven days.

Although many adventurers can travel around without such documents, they are more dangerous when they are inspected through strict border fortresses, cities, or when someone is in trouble. They may be regarded as heretics by the church and spies by the intelligence service.

After that, Lucien continued to stay in Aalto, on the one hand planning the route and accompanying Joel them, on the other hand waiting for April 10 to approach.

On the morning of April 9th, bid farewell to Joel, John, Elena and others, Lucien took the coach hired by the association to the northwest of Aalto, using the excuse to first go to the north of the Principality Tyran travels to the province and then turns to the Syracuse Kingdom to the east.

…………

The magnificent Aalto city gradually disappeared behind him, and Lucien put his head back in the car window, picked up his identity documents and looked at it.

At the end of these documents, there is a divine imprint to ensure that they are not forged by people outside the church, so it is a very strong proof that there is no need to worry about not being able to pass the border in a fair way when going to the east of the mainland.

Turning over, Lucien suddenly found that there were several newspapers in the carriage, so she picked it up curiously and took a closer look. It turned out to be the Music Review and the Symphony Guide, which were published after the festival.

"It was Elena who thought I didn't read it, so I bought it and put it in the car to let me pass the time?" Lucien confirmed the person who put the newspaper in a little thought. During this time, Lucien basically needs to prove except for documents. I haven't been to the association, and naturally I haven't read these newspapers.

The first edition of "Music Review" is divided into two halves. On the left, the scene of Christopher's curtain call is painted in black and white, and on the right is a colorful oil painting, which depicts the side of Lucien playing the piano.

Then the two lines of words are very thick and symmetrically written:

"The end of an era, the beginning of an era."

In the second edition, it is the full text:

"Mr. Christopher called the curtain, forever. This is the end of an era."

"The past seven decades have been an era in which symphony development has begun to improve and the structure has become more rigorous. It is an era in which symphony is rapidly brilliant and dominates the elegant stage. Mr. Christopher is the epitome of this entire era and is a true music master Let us thank and honor the masters and the era with the most solemn etiquette. "

"I do n’t want to count the honors that Mr. Christopher won, so this article will become very lengthy. I just want to emphasize that the" Dawn War "symphony at the end of the concert is an unprecedented attempt by the master, breaking through the past. The limitation of it has achieved great success, and showed us the trend of theme music in the future. And when Mr. Christopher wrote this piece, he was already 70 years old, which reminded me of a sentence, The heart of music never stops beating. "

"Thanks to the gift of the Lord to us, the miraculous magic items will keep these classics for us, and we will be able to enjoy them in the music library."

...

"This is also the beginning of an era. Although Mr. Lucien Evans ’s conductor and performance are still very young and there are still many problems, he showed us the possibility of new developments in music, whether it is his symphony, Sonata, conductor, piano playing, etc. are all full of flavor of change. "

"Such a change may not be accepted and liked by many gentlemen, but I think it is too appropriate to start a new era in this way."

"Brand new symphony connotation, brand new sonata structure, brand new conductor style, brand new playing fingering, brand new concert form, I can already imagine the colorful and colorful future, this will be an era of change."

...

"Thank you Mr. Lucien Evans, thank you for this unrestrained musical genius, he is the beginning of this era, I also wish him the epitome of this era, become a legend and master of music."

"Mr. Christopher closed the curtain, and Mr. Lucien Evans began. The music never closed."

This article is not signed, which means it is a joint article of the Aalto Musicians Association.

The contents of the first and second editions of the "Symphony Guide" are similar to the "Music Review", both of which are summaries and evaluations of the two-day concert, on the one hand, the beauty of Christopher, on the other hand, Lucien's praise, such as:

"This is a concert full of new ideas. Mr. Lucien Evans showed us a completely different form of sonata, conducting style and playing performance, let us know for the first time that piano solo has such charm. I do n’t think anyone minds me calling the piano the king of musical instruments? "

...

"We want to thank ourselves for living in this era, this genius will not wait until death to be discovered and accepted, thank the Lord, thank Mr. Lucian Evans."

Lucien looked at the beginning and read the following articles at random. Except for the unanimous praise for Christopher, most of them were affirmation of the connotation and structural form of the "Sorrow" Sonata. Affirming the fingering of piano playing and the charm of performance, only a small part judges that Lucien ’s conductor is like a lunatic or a patient. Lucien ’s playing is like smashing the piano without elegant temperament.

In these few articles, Lucien saw Wolfe's name, it seems that he can only be a critic and he still misses himself.

Closing the newspaper, Lucian looked at the headline of the music review in a daze:

"The end of an era, the beginning of an era."

"Musician Lucian's life is over. Can the magician Lucian's life really start?"

Outside the car window, the country houses rushed backwards and disappeared, and the road gradually became deserted, and the trees became thicker and denser.

…………

At six o'clock in the evening on April 9, the long-distance carriage arrived at the town of "Masawa".

The town entrance is a fork in the road, going north to the province of Tyran, one of the direct domains of the Violet family, and driving west for two hours is the small town of "Bonn" on the shore of Lake Elsinore.

"Mr. Evans, it's already dark. It's very easy to continue to move forward when attacked by robbers, wolves, and goblins. We might as well stay in Massawa town for one night and set off to the north tomorrow morning." The mercenary team leader Joe Iss motioned for the carriage to stop and walked to the door of the carriage to ask Lucian respectfully.

Throughout the continent, monsters can no longer be seen near cities, large towns, and villages, but robbers are occasionally infested, but because of the vast land and sparse population, the mountains, and the dense forests, there are remote roads everywhere, and pedestrians will meet from time to time. To monsters and human robbers with strong fertility but poor strength, unless they have the strength of a formal knight, they must go to the Adventurer ’s Guild to hire adventurers or mercenaries to protect themselves.

This is why the adventurer and mercenary industries continue to thrive in a world where the church is terrible and the nobles are powerful. Of course, the financially rich firms have their own guards.

Lucien entrusted the mercenary squad invited by the association to have a total of six people. There are two captains with high-level knight servant strength and four players with ordinary or trainee knight servant strength.They need to pay them 300 inhales every month, and the room and board will be charged separately.

This is an unaffordable cost for ordinary people, and can only pay a certain amount of money to follow the caravan or such rich people like Lucien, but after Lucien ends the concert, there is a large sum of money to pay. One hundred and five Quintal, more than enough to perform without performing on the way to Sturk.

"I respect the advice of professionals. I lived in Massawa tonight in accordance with your arrangement of Captain Joyce. Please find a hotel. I need a very quiet room." Lucien opened the door of the carriage and looked at Joyce said tall, sturdy and silent.

This was originally Lucien's plan, because now it is easy to encounter magicians, magic apprentices and other adventurers directly in Bonn. It is better to live in Massawa and wait until it is dark before sneaking in.

Joyce is a 32-year-old warrior who is good at two-handed swords. He is still trying to save money to fight for the power of blood. He has a simple face with gratitude for Lucien ’s respect and non-discrimination. , Mr. Evans, I will arrange it immediately. "

Experienced Joyce quickly booked an upscale hotel in Massawa. Lucien ’s room was on the far left of the second floor, leaning on a small unmanned lake, and was very quiet.

There are many strangers in the town of Massawa who are said to be tourists returning from the festival.

Under Joyce's arrangement, Lucien entered the room directly from the side door and did not meet the passengers.

After having dinner in the room and telling everyone not to disturb himself, Lucien waited quietly for the night to come.(To be continued.
