Chapter 282: Come Back Home – Aalto

Translator: Kris_Liu Editor: Vermillion

Lucien was glad to hear the news about his music teacher, Victor. The fact that Victor held his concert in the Psalm Hall during the music festival showed that his music achievement had been acknowledged. With a pleasant smile, he asked, “Which piece did Mr. Victor play?”

Seeing that the young man was interested in this topic, Glinton also got excited and started to blatter, “Four pieces in total! All of them were fantastic! Personally, I like the last piece, Symphony No. 8 in C minor, the best, of which love is the theme, but it is also more than love! It’s like an autobiography! Each chapter conveys different emotions and feelings one could have with love. Sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter… It reminded us of our own love stories! After Mr. Victor finished playing, people applauded sincerely. Love touched our hearts deeply…” As Glinton was saying, there was also a sweet smile on his face, and then he lowered his voice, “I heard that this music piece was written by Mr. Victor himself in memory of his dead wife, Winnie. It took him ten years to finish it. Symphony No. 8 in C minor’s a piece of artwork. In my eyes, it is no inferior than Fate, the War of Dawn, Sonata Pathétique and Moonlight!”

Love and music was always a combination that most ladies could not resist. The only lady took out her handkerchief and gently tapped the corner of her eyes, saying regretfully, “We missed this music festival because of the absence of Mr. Christopher and Lucien Evans. What a mistake…”

Lucien knew well the love Victor always had toward his wife. He sincerely felt happy for Victor as he could put all his love and thoughts in music, which must be a great comfort for Victor.

Lucien’s voice also became gentler, “Were there any new musicians on the music festival?”

Elena, Felicia, Pierre, Grace… He wondered how his classmates and friends were doing right now, and whether they were still pursuing their music dream.

“There was one, a female… named Louise. Her piano playing skill’s really impressive and her music work has those kind of special feminine features. Also, she’s a knight in training. She even has a beautiful white wolf as her pet!” said Glinton.

Lucien never heard this name. So, he took a sip at his lemonade and asked, “Anyone else?”

“Sure. Aalto Music Festival’s always the heaven for young musicians.” Glinton started listing the names as a way of showing off.

When Lucien almost lost his patience, he finally heard a familiar name.

“Mr. Victor’s student, also, Mr. Lucien Evans’ classmate, Felicia, also held her first concert over the festival. She played one symphony piece, one sonata piece and a couple of piano pieces that she wrote when she travelled through the continent. Also, she played Moonlight written by Mr. Evans to show her playing skills. I mean, although Miss. Felicia cannot yet be considered an outstanding musician, she’s on her way and, as a noble lady musician, she’s definitely very promising.”

Lucien nodded slightly. He knew that Felicia must have worked very hard in the three years.

Over the meal, Lucien had a pretty good appetite because of his good mood. At this time, Glinton sighed, “Speaking of Moonlight… It’s such a pity that we’ve never heard the great musician, Lucien Evans, playing Moonlight in person. Although the playing of his student, Miss Grace, was quite good, we’re still looking forward to the great musician showing the real beauty of Moonlight…”

The lady sitting beside the table also nodded, “Mr. Evans’ accomplishment in the field of piano playing is… incomparable. He created the brand new playing style as well as the foundation of fingering. I bet one person must have heard Mr. Lucien Evans playing Moonlight.”

Lucien’s face felt a bit hot when hearing all the compliments. He was also glad that Grace indeed followed his words and came to Aalto.

Another man laughed, “Of course, Her Majesty. It is said that the first movement of Moonlight was already written by the time Mr. Evans set off for his trip, and that he had played it in person in front of the princess.”

People around the table laughed.

Lucien felt a bit embarrassed, so he cut off a small piece of steak and started chewing. Then, he asked in a casual way, “It’s been three years since Mr. Evans left Aalto. When’s he coming back?”

“Maybe in a year or two. No one knows except the princess.” Glinton answered, “But the best thing’s that he’s still working on producing great music pieces… Moonlight, Storm… I really look forward to the day when he comes back.”

It was more than normal that a musician could only produce one music piece within a year or so, not to mention the fact that Lucien Evans was still on his trip.

Hearing that, Lucien thought to himself that no matter whether the church had known that the great musician was in fact a vicious sorcerer, they had not told the public yet.

Lucien got no information about Elena, but it was not out of Lucien’s expectation. After all, she just started learning music three years ago.

As for John, Joel and aunt Alisa, because they had nothing to do with the music festival, Lucien didn’t dare to ask randomly.

…

The second day, the first orange light of morning had just appeared.

At this time, Lucien finished the complicated magic model in his soul with the last piece of arc.

Light covered the model and disappeared. When the model appeared again, it was already surrounding Lucien’s Host Star of Destiny like many other magic models on the track.

It was Professor’s Infrasound Resonance, that could harm or even kill an enemy using infrasound resonance. Its power was penetrating, which could go through most power or elemental shields. However, it would still fail in front of magic-immune or magic-reflection defensive shields.

If Lucien’s spiritual power was enough, the spell could be used to affect senior-rank mages. However, currently, as a fourth-circle sorcerer, Lucien was not able to do so.

Looking at the thirty-six first circle spell models, twenty-eight second circle models, twenty third-circle models and five fourth-circle models, Lucien let out a sigh of relief.

It was the third time that Lucien tried to construct the model of Professor’s Infrasound Resonance, and he finally succeeded, as the complexity of this spell model was already close to fifth circle. Fortunately, Lucien had a solid foundation of arcana knowledge.

Half an hour later, Leo knocked at Lucien’s door.

After Lucien opened the door, Leo said to him respectfully, “It’s time for breakfast, my Lord. Then we shall set off for Aalto.”

“Alright.” Lucien stood up and adjusted his clothes a bit. Taking a glance at the early morning sky, Lucien took a deep breath of the fresh air. Once again, he stayed awake for the whole night.

Because the Dark Mountain Range was very dangerous, Lucien had been working hard constructing the magic models. Therefore, he had analyzed and constructed five fourth-circle spells, including Professor’s Infrasound Resonance, Douglas’ Absorbing Wall, Douglas’ Huge Palm, Arcana Light, Arcana Eye.

…

After breakfast, Lucien got on the coach and set off for Aalto.

On his way, he had mixed feelings. He missed Aalto, but he also had fear in his mind.

He knew that he could not directly go back to uncle Joel and aunt Alisa, or he might bring trouble to them. First, he should find Natasha to make sure he was safe.

In Aalto, Natasha was the only person to whom Lucien could safely reveal his identity, but soon he frowned—he had no idea how to find Natasha!

Natasha was the princess, the heir of the duchy. Although she was already a radiant knight, she must still have a lot of knights, guards and servants following her around the palace. As a nobody, Lucien basically had zero chance of randomly running into the princess.

Also, Lucien assumed that Natasha would not want to go to the Musicians’ Association after Silvia died… Now he finally realized that if he had not chosen to study music, he would never had the chance to get to know Natasha—they were different people from different worlds.

Although Lucien did write the letter to Natasha telling her that he was coming back, Natasha still had no idea what the specific time would be and how Lucien would look when he came back.

Lucien did not have a really good plan right now. He decided to see whether he could know Natasha’s common routine first, and then see if there were any chances that could be created.

In the afternoon, the tall city wall appeared in front of Lucien. Aalto still looked the same grand and prosperous.

“I’m back.” Lucien murmured to himself.

Then, he got off the coach and got ready for the inspection for entering the city.

At this time, the crowd was divided into two sides on its own. A group of knights slowly went through the city gate, and the leading knight who was wearing black armor was a very beautiful young female. Her beauty was not the typical kind of female beauty, but the mix of femininity and heroism.

It was Natasha, the princess who had dream-like, purple-colored eyes. She looked like a flourishing violet.

“Natasha?!” Lucien was very surprised.

When the knights slowly went past the the crowd, Natasha suddenly turned her head around and looked at Lucien, who right now had blond hair and green eyes.

A stunning smile appeared on her face. She winked at Lucien quickly and then kept moving forward followed by the knights.

Lucien could not believe that the trouble that bothered him so much was solved just like this.

At time time, several people started talking to each other, “The princess is visiting the manor again?”

“Yeah… That’s quite strange. After the princess finished her practice in the abbess, Her Majesty has been visiting the manor everyday in the afternoon, and coming back to Aalto the next morning…”

The corner of Lucien’s lips moved. A smile appeared on his face.
