Throne of Magical Arcana

Wise first answered Betty with a smile: "At Baron Habero's castle, thanks to your protection, Mr. Mars and I were completely safe, without missing a finger. Even if you didn't ask Betty, I would invite you Come to my concert." Then he looked at Lucien with some doubts, "Mr. Evans, what's the matter with you at the concert? Is there anything I can do for you? Hehe, and, are you willing to accept my request?" Invitation?"

Since Lucien has always emphasized that he does not have a title, everyone continues to call him Mr. instead of Sir or Master.

"Yes, Mr. Evans, if you have something to do at the concert, I can barely help." Mars looked grateful for the rest of his life.

When he thought that he was surrounded by evil and rotting undead creatures before, he shuddered and had nightmares again and again. If he was not just an ordinary music consultant for Baron Habero, he often went back and forth between Gray Fog Town and Koser City, and also participated in Kosser City from time to time. If the social salons and banquets of the high society in the upper class were turned into corpse puppets, it would be easy to be discovered, and I am afraid that they would have been festered and rotted long ago.

Betty, Simon, and Joanna were delighted at Wise's invitation, but also looked at Lucien strangely. Why did Mr. Evans go to the Musicians Association? Is he also a music lover? But along the way, he just listened to the music exchange between Wise and himself and others, and rarely interrupted. Perhaps he has friends in the Kosher City Musicians Association.

Lucien shook his head: "Thank you, Mr. Wise, for your kindness. I may not be able to attend your concert in time. As for my business, it's just a small matter. I want to send a letter to my friends with the help of the resources of the Kosher City Musicians Association." Mr. Mars, you know, apart from the church, the most frequent communication between countries is the musicians' association, and the "Music Review" and "Symphony Guide" can be seen in every city in the mainland." The only The difference is how many periods are lagged.

Although there are messengers in this world, there is no postal system extending in all directions, especially between different countries. Ordinary people can only rely on passing caravans and travelers to send letters to distant places. Of course, ordinary people don't have many relatives and friends far away.

The old Mr. Mars nodded lightly, smiled and said: "Mr. Evans, you are a knight. If you really want to ask, the association can't refuse, but it won't let the 'Hasmere' eagle deliver the letter for you. I will charge you a high fee. Hehe, although I am a little old, I still have some status in the Kosher City Musicians Association. Let me help Mr. Evans deal with it and ensure that your letter reaches your friend in the shortest possible time. "

"'Hasmere' eagle?" Lucien knew all about magical creatures other than common animals, and he had never heard of this species of eagle at all.

Wise said with a gentle smile: "This is a specialty of the Principality of Djibouti. It is a huge and extremely fast flying eagle. After being tamed, it also has the ability of pigeons to distinguish directions and routes. It only takes ten minutes to travel between Kosel and Alto. God. Hehe, so in the Musicians Association of the Principality of Djibouti, you can see the latest issue of "Music Review" and "Symphony Guide" after the 5th to 7th of every month."

"Today is July 2nd. It seems that we will have to wait a few days before we can see the latest issues of these two newspapers." Lucien replied regretfully, because it is possible to see Nata The recent situation of Sha, Victor and others, "It happens that my friend is in Alto, please Mr. Mars, please help me deal with it, so that they can receive my letter in a few days."

The wrinkles on Mars's old-fashioned face stretched out: "It makes me feel much better to be able to help Mr. Evans. In fact, even without me, Mr. Wise can help you with the degree of importance that Mr. Wise receives from the association. "

"Mr. Mars, you're over the top. I'm just a rookie who has just embarked on the road of music." Wise replied modestly.

Mars nodded slightly, turned around, and led the way to the Kosher City Musicians Association.

Lucien handed over the last day's employment fee to Simon and the others: "Thank you very much for your help along the way, and hope that you can start regular knight training as soon as possible. Maybe we will have a chance to meet again in the future."

"Thank you, Mr. Evans. But I don't think it's the last moment to say goodbye, because I plan to follow you to the Musicians' Association, and I happened to use the identity of Mr. Wise and Mr. Mars to get in. Hehe, I always wanted to Visiting the Musicians Association!" Betty said first, and then winked playfully at her sister and brother-in-law.

"On behalf of myself, I would like to welcome Miss Betty to visit the Kosher City Musicians Association." Wise said with a light smile, "Mr. Simon, Ms. Joanna, are you together?"

Joanna glared at Betty, but she also said curiously, "Then let's go and see."

…………

Although Koser City is not a small city in the south-central part of the mainland, it is less than one-fifth of the size of Alto. After walking for a long time, Lucien and the others saw the quaint iron-gray four-story building of the Musicians Association.

The guards here are stricter than those of the Alto Musicians Association. Standing in front of the iron railings, strangers are not allowed to enter until they see Mars, a famous musician, and he sends him to report to the director in charge of the daily affairs of the association. , for the invited Mr. Wise has come.

All kinds of beautiful crystal ornaments, huge oil paintings of different musicians, the soft and silent dark red carpet, and the soft and bright wide space together constitute the hall of the Koser City Musicians Association.

Just as Betty, Joanna and the others looked around curiously, a middle-aged man in a black formal suit with a friendly smile greeted them with many people.

"Hello, Mr. Wise, I sincerely welcome and thank you for coming to our concert in Kosel. I am Kasper, the director here, and they are the 'musicians' and musicians who are currently staying in the association." Card Spa held Wise's hands very enthusiastically. This talented musician is well-known in the principality's capital, and there is no one in Kosel City who can really be called a musician.

Wise smiled lightly: "Mr. Casper, you made me feel the enthusiasm and sincerity of Kosel City..."

The ordinary 'musicians' and musicians in the back also gathered around, and welcomed Wise enthusiastically and excitedly. They even exchanged music directly in the hall, discussed the repertoire prepared by Wise, and brought Lucien, Mars, and Betty together. They are all squeezed to the periphery.

"It's so grand!" Seeing the grand welcome of Wise by the Musicians Association of Kessel City, Betty not only didn't mind being pushed outside, but exclaimed with bright eyes, "and the melody they discussed sounds really interesting. Feel!"

Joanna said to her husband Simon with a slightly blurred gaze: "When you mobilize your blood power to become a knight, we will go back to our hometown once, and we will definitely receive the same grand welcome."

Everyone likes the feeling of being respected and liked, and Simon is no exception. He nodded heavily: "I will definitely start formal knight training as soon as possible according to Mr. Evans' warning."

Lucien next to him looked at such a lively scene, and smiled at Mars: "Mr. Mars, I'm going to write a letter at the counter, and I'll call on you to help me deal with it."

"I'll follow you and tell Miss Chris." Mars pointed to the seventeen or eighteen-year-old black-haired girl. s.

"Chris." After the two walked to the counter, seeing that the girl didn't turn her head to greet her, Mars called out.

Chris didn't look back, she waved her white palm: "I'll talk about what's going on later."

Mars shook his head amusedly, coughed heavily, and then amplified his voice slightly: "Chris."

"Ah? Mr. Mars! Hello, is there anything I can do?" Chris was startled, and quickly stood upright, asking anxiously.

Mars narrowly escaped death. He was in a good mood and was more open-minded. He didn't pursue the little girl's impoliteness, and pointed to Lucien: "Give Mr. Evans the paper, pen and envelope. When he finishes writing, arrange for the eagle courier to deliver it as soon as possible." To the Aalto Musicians Association."

"It eats a lot of meat, and it costs a lot of money to fly." Chris questioned in a low voice while taking out a pen and paper and handing them to Lucien.

Mars turned his serious face: "I'll coordinate."

Chrissy stuck out her tongue quietly, without saying anything, took out another stack of newspapers: "Mr. Mars, this is the latest issue of "Music Review" and "Symphony Guide", do you need to buy it?"

"The latest issue?" Lucien, who was unfolding the envelope, raised his head and asked with the same doubts as Mars.

Chris nodded slightly: "Well, this issue was published ahead of schedule, and I just arrived in Koser City yesterday."

"Publish in advance? Can you give me a copy?" Lucien took out a quintal.

On the other side, Wise also heard the conversation between the three, and walked over with the crowd welcoming him, "Beautiful lady, can you give me a copy? I will also pay for Mr. Evans and Mr. Mars." Although Betty and Joanna's family could not read or write, they came over curiously after hearing the pronunciation of the two most famous music newspapers, "Music Review" and "Symphony Guide".

"Okay, Mr. Wise." With a flushed face, Chris handed the newspaper to Wise first, then to Mars, and finally to Lucien.

Wise opened the newspaper and smiled in surprise: "Mr. Lucien Evans wrote another piano sonata?!"

"Yes. I saw it yesterday. It's really a dreamlike and beautiful first movement." Director Casper echoed with an exaggerated intoxicated expression, and Betty became extremely excited.

Wise nodded slightly, hummed the melody softly, sad and sweet, soft and melodious.

Lucien on the side heard their conversation and was really puzzled. When did he compose a new piano sonata?

But as the familiar melody sounded, Lucien immediately guessed who did it.

Lucien opened the newspaper in his hand, and saw the familiar score and signed comments on the second page of "Music Review".

"This is a piano sonata created by the famous musician Lucien Evans during his travels. Although there is only the first movement, it still makes us feel the wonderful and excellent melody, the peaceful and quiet music atmosphere and the deep understanding of the piano sonata genre. An innovation in format that breaks with the familiar fast-slow-fast arrangement..."

"Whenever I hear this first movement, it always reminds me of the sparkling lake under the moonlight. It is so beautiful and peaceful and dreamy."

…………

"Natasha Violet"

"It really is her, but why would she suddenly think of publishing the first movement of "Moonlight" for me?" Lucien frowned and thought, very puzzled.

"It's such a beautiful and beautiful melody." Betty couldn't help admiring just after hearing Wise's humming part, "It turns out that there is a new piece of music by Mr. Evans, no wonder it will be published in advance."

"Published in advance..." Lucien thought of something, and quickly flipped to the first page, only to see that the date on it was written in red words one size larger than usual: June 26, 816.

Lucien laughed. Is this guy saying the coming of age ceremony is happy in this way?
