Chapter 28 The Quiet Sewer

Victor was not a stupid fool who only focused on music. He felt clearly towards Wolfe's hostility. He was filled with anger and amusement in his heart. It was not that he had robbed him of the opportunity to hold a concert in the Psalm Hall. It was just that the former director

When he was selecting and comparing musicians, he happened to be the one who entered into the final discussion with him. If anyone wanted to blame him, it would probably be Wolfe who was better at writing reviews than composing music, and had forgotten his own musical pursuits.

"Of course, Wolf, I have written a new piano concerto and I am very satisfied with it. Do you want to listen to it in advance?" Victor shot back with a smile. His piano concerto has been registered with the Musicians Association and is not

Worried that Wolfe would plagiarize after hearing this.

Wolf didn't expect that Victor would brush aside the weeks of depression and decadence and become full of confidence. His face immediately turned livid, he grunted twice, and said stiffly: "Victor, I'd better stay a little curious. I hope the three

Don’t let me down in the Chant Hall in a few months.” Victor was so confident that Wolff was afraid that after listening to his piano concerto, not only would he not be able to hit him with harsh words, but he would also make the three of himself

I don't eat well and sleep well during the month.

Victor spread his hands and said with a smile: "What a pity. I was hoping you would give me some advice."

Wolff didn't want to continue on this topic. He turned his eyes and saw Lucien next to Victor and saw his old and cheap linen clothes. Then he raised his chin with disdain and said: "Victor, when did you know the lowly people?"

uneducated poor people?"

Although starting from Wolfe's great-grandfather, no one in his family has received a title for several generations, but no matter what, Wolfe's distant relatives still have a viscount and several lords, which does not prevent him from using the noble title as a noble.

He considers himself a member and looks down on musicians like Victor who are from civilian backgrounds. He always maintains a cold and noble attitude, not to mention poor people like Lucien. In addition, he hates and hates Victor. When he sees Lucien next to him

, Wolfe felt as if he saw a disgusting mouse running onto his dining table.

Lucien's almost abusive tone towards Wolfe, except for a little anger, was full of deep amusement. No matter where there are differences in property, wealth and status, there will be people who will artificially rely on them to distinguish between "high and low".

"Modern society is a little better. This strange fusion of the Renaissance and the Dark Middle Ages is a different world that is completely naked and proud of it. If you want to change this kind of discrimination, you can only rely on your own strength.

Victor was a commoner, and he also had an indescribable disgust for Wolfe's attitude. He frowned and said seriously: "Watch your words, Wolfe. This is the way of a student who just recently studied music with me."

Sean, well, a young man with great musical talent."

Although Victor himself has no discrimination against the poor, the customs, atmosphere and education of the whole world still have a profound impact on him. Therefore, when introducing Lucien, in order to prevent him from being discriminated against, in addition to his own feelings towards Wolf

Disgusted, Victor couldn't help bragging. Even until now, he didn't know whether Lucien was born with a lack of musicality.

"Hahaha, he, hahahaha, does he have musical talent? How can a lowly poor man who has never been influenced by music have musical talent? Victor, I think your brain became abnormal because you were preparing for the concert.

." Wolfe seemed to have heard some very funny joke. He laughed so hard that he lost his grace and leaned forward and backward. The aggrieved mood just now completely disappeared, and he laughed loudly at Victor and Lucien.

Victor did not expect that his well-intentioned bragging would arouse such a big reaction from Wolfe. While lamenting that it was difficult for him to understand Wolfe, he could only continue to insist: "Alto is the city of chants and the city of music.

, everyone here is favored by the Lord and influenced by music. Even the poor, there are many outstanding bards, and some people's musical talent is a gift from the Lord, they are born with it, and they are nurtured later in life.

And education just wipes away the dust that obscures the brilliance of the gem, allowing it to bloom with its original brilliance, isn’t it?”

Wolfe smiled and shook his head, pointing at Lucien: "Such musical geniuses do exist, but since they have been gifted by the Lord, the power of divine grace of blood should be easily inspired, so Her Royal Highness Princess Natasha is so powerful.

His Excellency the Count of Erdi is, and your 'student', what is his name? Well, Lucien, certainly not. If he can become an outstanding musician, I will publicly apologize to you and him in the "Music Review"

, and no more concerts.”

Feeling proud, Wolfe quickly made a definite guess, but he was also cautious and deliberately added the word "outstanding" in front of the musician. Anyway, by then, as long as he is not recognized as outstanding, even if Victor uses this sentence to come to him

You can also lie and deny it.

According to the information Lucien knows these days, Princess Natasha is the only bloodline of Grand Duke Violet and is the Countess of Violet. This title is the first title that every Grand Duke must inherit before he succeeds to the throne, because

The Violet family is the Violet family. She is very talented in music and is good at violin, flute, and harpsichord. If it were not for her status, she would have become an excellent musician. Of course, as a knight, Na

Tasha is also an outstanding fifth-level knight. At only twenty-five years old, she is not far from the rank of Sky Knight.

Count Verdi is also a member of the Violet family and the nephew of the Grand Duke. He has written several outstanding pieces of music. He is currently not in his own territory, but serves as the top commander of the city guard in Alto. He has just become a fifth-level grandmaster.

knight.

After finishing speaking, Wolfe walked towards the stairs with a smile without looking at Victor.

Victor shook his head in disgust and said to Lucien: "Ignore this narrow-minded, bitter, vulgar guy, just do your studies with peace of mind. You can handle other things in the afternoon and officially come to Elena tomorrow morning."

, let her take you to the library. Well, we will have one day off a week from now on. Whether it is Saturday or Sunday depends on how you discuss it with your partner who manages the library together. Okay, I'm going to the concert hall."

After watching Victor leave, Lucien turned around and handed the contract document to Elena: "I'm going to trouble you tomorrow, Elena."

Elena smiled, with a slight dimple on the left side: "This is my job, Lucien. By the way, ignore Mr. Wolfe, most people in the association don't like him, except for that

Several directors, well, directors with titles."

"Haha, Mr. Wolf, who always looks at us with his chin arrogantly, will he look at the chins of several directors humbly and respectfully?" Lucien humorously sarcastically said according to the meaning of Elena's words,

It made Elena giggle.

After chatting with Elena for a while, Lucien was busy going back to explore the entrance to the sewer, so he said goodbye.

"Lucien!" After walking a few steps, Lucien suddenly heard Elena's cry and turned around to look at her in confusion.

Elena clenched her right hand into a small fist and waved: "Lucien, I believe you, even if you can't become a musician, you will still become an excellent musician. Then look at Mr. Wolfe's expression!"

Before joining the Musicians Association, Elena's life was between the poor and the common people, so she felt the same way about Wolfe's tone just now and was very dissatisfied.

Lucien imitated her and waved his fist, saying perfunctorily: "Definitely!"

…………

At around nine o'clock in the evening, except for a few drunkards, there was no one in Aderang District. In the silence of the night, the occasional low bark of wild dogs could be heard. For the poor in this world, they always go to bed early and get up early. There is no such thing at night.

With the colorful nightlife, you also need to get up early in the morning and be busy for the day's livelihood.

At dinner, after telling Uncle Joel and Aunt Alisa the good news that he had found a very good job with the help of Mr. Victor, Lucien returned to his cabin on the pretext of studying, meditating and waiting.

Here’s an analysis of the magic you’re going to learn.

Quietly sneaking out of the hut, closing the wooden door gently, Lucien walked very lightly towards the entrance of a remote sewer that he had explored in the afternoon. After he analyzed the four magic arrays, he could use magic materials to arrange and use some

Weakening of formal magic, auxiliary version, such as "micro-effect fossil into mud", which is a useful magic to open a secret passage to the sewer in your house, and build a magic laboratory in the sewer, so that you don't have to go in and out.

People are suspicious.

After patiently observing that no one was around, Lucien carefully entered the sewer entrance.

This time, the stench and the greasy, dirty environment around him still made Lucien uncomfortable and uncomfortable, but they could not stop his enthusiasm for learning magic. He shuttled through the sewers, looking for remote corners.

And a rough sewer map was marked and drawn in the Soul Library.

Moreover, during the process, Lucien also scraped off a lot of moss that glowed faintly on the wall and put it in his left pants pocket, because this moss is called "fluorescent moss" and is an apprentice-level informal magic "forbidden light".

"spell" casting materials.

While searching, Lucien felt strange that he still hadn't come across the beggars Correa mentioned living in the sewers. The surroundings were quiet except for Lucien's own slight footsteps, which felt very eerie.

Soon, Lucien found a site that was very suitable for magic experiments. It was a three-way road. A dozen steps ahead was blocked by a boulder, and the left side led deeper. As long as you stood in a good position, you could easily find it.

Are there people approaching from the left or behind?

He pinched a ball of sulfur powder from the right hand pocket of his linen jacket. Lucien sighed a little. If he couldn't become a formal magician, it would be troublesome to just carry the magic materials with him. He only had four kinds, and he could keep them separately.

Among the four pockets, those with dozens or hundreds of items may have to use special magic robes with rows of small pockets in the belt.

Recalling the analyzed spell structure and the process of magic construction that he understood, Lucien stretched out his right hand, pinched his fingers, and the fine sulfur powder slowly slipped from his hand. He made a weird, awkward sound in his mouth, and his face

The expression on his face was serious and gloomy under the fluorescent light.
