Chapter 93: adaptation
The carriage was driven by a 40-50 year-old driver. When the old count was alive, he already belonged to the "Berne" manor, and transported a lot of nobles. Therefore, the carriage traveled smoothly and abnormally, making Lucian in the carriage completely feel This is the ordinary rammed earth road between the estates.
Thinking quietly, after not knowing how long, Lucian found the carriage stopped.
"Mr. Evans, have you been outside Sir Wayne's manor. Do you need me to report?" The coachman whispered and asked, in his experience, the elegant gentleman would not talk to the gatekeeper in a self-defeating manner. All these things are done by servants or coachmen.
Lucian smiled softly: "No, my friend is also a knight's attendant. I'm no better than him."
As long as it can inspire blood power, the status of a formal knight is far higher than that of ordinary musicians. That is a real nobleman. Of course, Lucian is now a potential knight.
The guard at the gate was Ian and Dorag, whom Lucian had met before. When they saw the carriage inlaid with the flame bull coat of the Hain family approaching the gate of the manor, they immediately raised their chests and were ready to welcome the distinguished The guests.
But what surprised them was that the poor man who had come out of the carriage before had seen him before, and overwhelmed himself by drinking and impressed himself, and he was also wearing a white shirt with a wide cuff, black sè's formal jacket, coupled with a handsome and elegant appearance, is like a true nobleman.
In surprise, Ian didn't return until Lucien stopped in front of them: "Hello, are you here for John?" The carriage of the Hain family, and it seemed completely different. Lucian, letting Ian temporarily forget the shame of the past, full of politeness.
"Yes, please tell John." Lucian had almost forgotten Ian them.
Ian nodded and said good, and then turned and walked into the manor, when Dorrag hesitated: "Excuse me, are you Mr. Evans?"
After the great success of the Chant Hall concert, even if John is not a showy and bragging person, he can't help telling the story of his good friend Evans in his attendant companions, combining his musical talents and previous experiences, I responded to the concert with unprecedented enthusiasm, and praised the Archduke, the Cardinal, and the Princess, so I saw Lucien, who was a poor man now, being picked up by the carriage of the Hain family, and Dorag would soon He was connected with the talented musician Evans.
"Yes, I'm a good friend of John." Lucian answered calmly.
Dorrag said with some excitement: "I have heard of your" fate ", and it was an unparalleled work at Sir Wein's banquet a few days ago. I really like it so much, please forgive me for your previous attitude towards you .
Passionate, sincere, and excited, Lucian did not expect Dorrag to be a literary youth who really loved music, which was not in harmony with his thick arms and strong chest.
However, here is Aalto, this kind of thing is normal.
"Thank you for the compliment, I am very happy and proud." Lucian responded politely.
And Ian on the side smiled awkwardly: "It turns out that you are Mr. Evans, and I ask you to forget your previous impoliteness."
He is not an enthusiastic music lover like Dorag, but the knight Wien he serves is very fond of and admired the "Symphony of Destiny", and even listened to it at the banquet. In his heart, Ian still hated Lucian.
Seeing this scene, Lucian can only feel that once his status and status change, the attitudes of others around him will also change dramatically.
When Ian went in search of John, Dorrag was still agitated. He rubbed his hands and looked at Lucien, but he didn't know what to say, but he finally squeezed out a sentence: "Mr. Evans, I Can you be invited to my house? "
Lucian was slightly embarrassed and could only find a reason to decline.
After a while, John followed Ian and asked, puzzled: "How come you, Lucian, I'll be back at noon."
Lucian told the cultist that John was not going to lie on Saturday, but that he had advanced the time slightly by half a day.
"Some things that have been resolved, come to the carriage." Lucian pulled John into the carriage, and the old driver was very interested, tied the horse to a stake, walked to the side, and took out tobacco-like leaves Lit and smelled under the nose.
John knew that Lucian was not a reckless person, and although he was full of doubts, he listened carefully.
With Lucian's remarks, John's face gradually turned blue, and his hands were clenched tightly. When he heard the three broken fingers, his teeth made the sound of biting teeth, but he kept quiet, no Screaming, no scolding, waited until Lucian finished speaking, then exhaled for a long time, speechless for a long time.
Lucian accompanied him to calm down his emotions, and also said nothing.
"Lucien, you don't have to blame yourself. Although it was because you became a music adviser to Her Royal Highness that devotees' devotees have focused on their father, mother, and Avon, what's wrong is that they are baddies, not you, not your pursuit of music The motive of the road. Even if there is no such thing, as long as you or I have the possibility of contact with Her Majesty and Her Royal Highness Princess, they will still do the same thing. We can't blame ourselves for the bad guy's mistake. "
After John regained a little emotion, the first thing he said was to comfort Lucien, for fear that Lucien could not let go of this incident and affect his musical path.
Lucian did not expect John to say this, a little warm feeling emerged, and a little inner self-blame that did not affect the emotions slowly disappeared: "Thank you for your comfort, John, I understand that we will never know that a bad guy will be because What we did hurt us. "
After confirming that the Joel family had been rescued by Her Royal Highness's knight, John immediately indicated that he would take time off to return to visit.
"Wait a minute, John." Lucien took out the black bag with moonlight roses. "Here are twenty grams of moonlight roses."
John looked at the bag diligently. Just now he knew the origin of the Moonlight Rose from Lucian's mouth. After hesitating for more than ten seconds, he took the bag firmly, without declining: "Thank you, Lucian, I It will definitely inspire blood power. Only in this way will I be able to protect my family and my friends. "
He did not mention the money back to Lucien, because he knew that he could not pay such a large sum of money before stimulating the bloodline power, and if he could successfully motivate the bloodline to become a knight, he would be protected as a true noble. , And repaying Quintal are simple things.
"But you can't be too anxious. Follow Sir Wayne's arrangements step by step. By the way, John must keep me secret about the other twenty grams." Lucian told, and just told John the reason was, When the cult promised to help him inspire his blood power as a reward, he offered to provide moonlight roses himself, so 20 grams was used, but this kind of thing was not mentioned by the anger of the princess, and only told Natasha that the cult was direct and could not be rejected s help".
John returned with a smile that worried his parents' expressions: "Rest assured, I can keep secrets better than dead people."
In his view, Lucien was forced to delay and pretend.
After making up for the last omission, Lucian sent the coachman back, and drove the carriage back to Aalto.
The carriage of the Hain family appeared in the slums, causing a small sensation. Although most of the poor could not distinguish the coat of arms and know the meaning of each coat of arms like the scholars, they knew the most famous families of Alto .
Joel, Alisa, and Irwin have been sent back by the church, and they seem to have received no powerful information from them.
Seeing John and Lucien stepping out of the carriage, Ivan, who had matured a lot, suddenly wept and became very sad, as if trying to wash away the unpleasant and sad memories.
John touched Irving's head and patted his back: "It's gone, everything's gone, and the Lord's blessing will be all right."
Lucien embraced Joel and Alisa, and incorporated apologies, fears, and joy into the embrace.
"It's none of your business, everything is over." Both Joel and Alissa so comforted Lucien when they were in the hands of the cultists, and they thought they would certainly not be able to escape death. The knights were rescued, which made them more forgiving and understanding in addition to believing in the God of Truth.
After more than ten minutes of comforting each other, Lucian learned from Joel and Alisa the contents of the church and the Principality Intelligence section. They mainly wanted to know from Joel their characteristics of some cultists and why the caretaker was too late. Kill the hostages and run away.
But Joel and Alisa did n’t pay attention to the surroundings when they were beaten, and then they were suddenly stunned by a loud noise. When they woke up, they saw the princess ’knight. They did n’t know what happened in the middle. The rest of the hostages were similar. Even if a few of them did not faint, they heard almost nothing in severe tinnitus.
The only thing that puzzled the enquirer was why Joel and Alissa fainted after being raised from the cell, but woke up in the cell, but this question was combined with "Why the caretaker has n’t had time to kill the hostages and escape" Looking at it, you can get a more reasonable explanation and process.
That was after the loud noise, because it was necessary to deal with other things first, and it was not the last time that the hostages needed to be cleaned up, the caretaker knights threw Joel back to their cell, lest they run away until the church and Camille and Natasha After the attack, the caretaker had no time to return, so he fled or died in chaos.
While Alissa was telling these things with tears, someone came knocking on the door. Lucian looked back, and it was Correa, the old acquaintance, and another guard who did not know the church.
"It's just that the high-level knights are here, and it seems that I have not been suspected much," Lucian secretly said.
Correa invites Lucian seriously and politely to the small room and asks what happened. Lucien tells Natasha how to tell him, except to stimulate blood.
Taking notes, Correa stood up and thanked solemnly: "The Lord Bishop has commanded me to thank you. If it weren't for your information, the Lord's night guards would be all evil."
In the view of the church, although things are a bit coincidental, this coincidence is in their own favor. If it was not for Lucian's intelligence, the night watchman's loss would be even worse, and the entire army would be lost.
"Professor who has only been in Alto for more than three months" and Lucien, who has been living here, cannot be equal. This is the premise for the church to make all judgments. Although Lucien is a witch's neighbor, it may be possible I have been in contact with the professor, but I just suspect that I have been in contact. With his credit and status appreciated by Her Royal Highness, it is difficult to catch and torture, and if there is contact, it can be better to observe in secret and not do things that alarm Lucien. Chance to catch the cunning "Professor"!
After inquiries from the church, Lucien finally returned to normal life completely, began a busy music study and magic analysis, and let the Alisa family move to their own garden villa temporarily, after all, the law and order in Jisu District is far better In Adjan.
Regarding the magic circle signs in the corner, Lucian never took a look again, nor did the final processing of the magic laboratory, because he was worried that the church was closely monitoring the neighborhood and looking for professors.
This day Victor began teaching Lucian, Lotte, and Felice about their "Cannon" style, which is a basic polyphonic music, with multiple voices imitating the same melody and appearing in turn. Crossing, chasing each other, intertwining each other, until the last chord merges.
This piece of music is beautiful and easy to learn, and even beginners can compose similar chords, so it is a good choice to try to create when starting to learn polyphonic music.
"Actually, Lucien's Symphony of Destiny has unconsciously used Canon's technique. It seems that you have learned a lot of things in the music library." Victor praised Lucien.
Lucien was thinking about another thing: "Although the famous Cannon in D major (John = Pachbel Cannon) has a similar melody in this world, it was created by a musician more than 80 years ago Yes, the similarity is more than 90%, but I can adapt it to Piano Bell's Canon, which can save time and have some innovations to meet the requirements of a concert within a year. "
In Lucian's sense, John = Pach Belkanon needs to be more beautiful, and the adaptation is the best way to get the concert track in a short time. Of course, "original" and final music must be needed.
