The cold-faced earl doesn't want to trigger the plot

"Speaking of which, how exactly are you going to rescue Nightingale and the Eudemons? Could it be that you intend to break into my family's castle and kill everyone who stands in the way?"

Before arriving at the Camprete castle through the teleportation circle, Riber and Eguide were discussing.

"Uh...Miss Nightingale said that as long as I cause enough confusion, she will cooperate."

As Egyed spoke, he explained again.

Due to years of captivity, the Eudemons Mother Goddess in the lair of the old capital is gradually dying.As the successor of the Eudemons Goddess, the dissipated power of the Eudemons Goddess will appear on Nightingale.

Therefore, the current Nightingale can command a considerable part of the phantom beasts in the nest.

"In other words, do you want to cause chaos? Then we can do this. John and I will first use the nightingale to cause a riot among the eudemons. Lead the family manager out of the castle. Then, you go and solve her, let The research institute and the castle fell into even greater chaos. In the end, Nightingale ordered the Eudemons to finish it off."

In this way, the plan to attack Campret Castle on this day was decided.

Although, the main body of the plan is extremely simple, and it is the kind of behavior that tries to shake a giant with weak individual strength, which seems a bit ridiculous.

But Riber didn't think he would fail at all.

Even, even without the BUG-like Egged, Riber still had the same idea.He took over the family's power in the old capital, which was the basis for his last Jedi counterattack.

It can only be said that even if the family ignores Riber again and regards him as a puppet.

As long as the family still regards Riber as the "head of the family" and treats him as one of their own.

Then, it is not difficult for Riber to throw one problem after another to the family, throw the family into chaos from within, and even disintegrate a large part of the power.

He didn't do this in the past, just because it was an act that harmed others and benefited himself.

No matter how much you dislike it, the family is still the family, it is the foundation of his life, and it has provided him with a lot of convenience to some extent.

And, more importantly, if he makes any changes, he may attract that terrible "Madame".

But now, things are very different.

Even if the "madame" is recruited, Riber is at least [-]% sure that he can persuade the other party not to arrest him and imprison him for the time being.

Turning back to reality from the short memory, Liber sighed lightly and stared at the nightingale piano in front of him.

Today, the three nightingale zithers he brought are the first batch of nightingale qin made.In order to hide it from Charlotte, he really paid a lot of money.

It's just that Ribel is very curious, if this nightingale piano is destroyed, will the trigger point of the plot that has been lit by John but never exploded on it be transferred to other nightingale pianos.

Turning his head, Riber looked at the shivering John who was sitting in front of another nightingale.

"Sorry, John. Getting you involved in something weird again."

John, who was extremely nervous, turned his head to look at Riber.But he found that his teacher didn't have the guilt-like expression on his face at this time.

"Don't look at me, I can't help it. If it doesn't work, just treat it as a special acting class."

"Yes..."

John replied a little dryly.

He himself was more used to being pushed forward, and listening to Riber's rare tough and slightly unreasonable attitude, his inner tension calmed down a lot.

"Actually... I'm worried, whether my performance can help the teacher. Just playing the notes, can it really affect the battle situation..."

John lowered his head and said timidly.

"Yeah, it's normal to be worried. After all, we don't live in a worldview where we can get everything just by playing."

Although, the performance and vision of the nightingale piano is a "new battlefield" discovered and developed by Riber.

However, the situation of struggling through playing is indeed a bit too abstract.

Once upon a time, in Liber's mind, the fantasy of him playing in the center of the battlefield and attracting an army of phantom beasts to wipe out his opponents appeared.

And now, that pure fantasy scenario is actually being realized to some extent.

In an incredible world, there are incredible cities with incredible power and incredible existence...

"However, you don't have confidence in yourself, but you should have confidence in me. Just like, I have no confidence in myself, but I have confidence in you. Since, I hope you can play music with me today, then you must Indispensable existence.”

In his own way, Riber affirmed John, who was always surrounded by negative thoughts and tried to retreat and escape.

Infected by Riber's words, John also raised his head, mustering up the courage to return a firm gaze.

...

...

On opposite sides of two nightingale harps side by side.

Ewenna, who was also sitting in front of a different nightingale piano, frowned as she watched the two people opposite her with complicated emotions.

what's wrong...

Volume Three: Chapter 280 Nine, The End of the Journey

"Sure enough, I still find it incomprehensible to incorporate 'emotion'..."

Across the distance between two nightingale pianos, Ewenna continued to silently listen to the conversation between Riber and John.

"Each note has different strengths and weaknesses, and each pair of syllables has a different interval. Playing with emotion will affect these things. This is my temporary understanding now..."

Riber continued to speak, and then sighed softly,

"Am I not suitable for things like playing?"

Listening to the indifferent helplessness in Riber's tone, Ewenna subconsciously wanted to say "No such thing!"

But before Ewenna stood up from her seat, the words rang out.

"No such thing!"

The one who spoke was naturally John.

"It is difficult to integrate emotions into performances. Presumably, anyone who wants to be a performer knows that if there is no emotion in their performances, they will not be able to infect others. However, if such If you just need to think that everyone can do it, then everyone will be a famous pianist, performer and singer!"

John spoke in a rare excited voice.

"I see. Is everyone confused about how to better integrate their emotions into the performance? Are you the same?"

Riber asked with interest.

"...uh... this..."

"..."

Riber began to sigh again.

"I, I also learned some tricks through practice."

After a short pause, John continued.

"This kind of thing, can you still practice?"

"I think the emotion in the performance, the most important thing, is still to be conveyed to others. Therefore, it is a good way to always try to play for others and invite others to listen."

"Oh? Is that what you did?"

Riber asked curiously.

As for John, who was asked, he was a little shy, and touched the back of his head in embarrassment,

"When I was young, I once met a girl who said she liked the music I played... At that time, I just started learning the harp. I didn't have much confidence in myself, and my family and neighbors thought it was very noisy. So , that girl's words left a deep impression on me."

After the words were spoken, John, who had a lot of awkward feelings disappeared, continued with a reminiscing look,

"I only met her once. And now, I can't even remember what she looks like... However, whenever I practice alone, I still imagine that she is listening from the side. I I also look forward to passing on my music to her."

...

Although, at present, it seems that everyone around is immersed in a very beautiful story.

But Ewenna felt... inexplicably disgusting?

Well, it's an exaggeration to say that it's disgusting, but it makes people feel a little uncomfortable, that's for sure.

If the girl John met when he was a child knew that John fantasized that she was by his side all day long and wanted to play for her, it would only feel troublesome and a headache...

This boy who is so ordinary that people often forget his appearance may be a strange person by accident.

Although she had such thoughts in her heart, Ewenna's eyes never moved away from Riber's body for a moment.

She saw that after hearing what John said, Riber stared at the ring on his hand for a long time with a very complicated expression.

Because Riber really told everything about it.Therefore, Ewenna knew that the soul of Antoinette, the singer of silver, resided in that ring.

After staring at the ring for a while, Liber breathed a sigh of relief and spoke slowly,

"In other words, do I need a listener who is willing to listen to me?"

Ewenna raised her head slightly immediately, her eyes shone slightly, and she even wanted to raise her hands and shout "I, I!"

"Even if I can find someone like that, I probably don't have that much time..."

Yiwenna lowered her head in disappointment.

"Hold, I'm sorry, teacher. I actually want to give advice to the teacher...I'm talking to myself again."

"It's okay, it's better to say that your suggestion is quite good. At least, it is reasonable, useful and practical than sitting around trying to integrate your feelings into the way of playing. And, as I said before, I It’s not really a big deal.”

Riber shrugged slightly and said indifferently.

After similar words were uttered from Riber's mouth many times, even Ewenna knew that Riber was not trying to belittle or be modest, but really thought so.

But at least Ewenna felt that Bell was tall enough in her mind.

It wasn't about things like status and power, but about the reassurance Ribele gave her.

Just like when Ai appeared in the old capital for the first time and told them about the old capital.Even though she knew that she might pass away in endless reincarnation in an instant, Ewenna didn't panic.

Because Riber is on her side, they will solve these problems together.

And today's situation is the same.

In fact, they are going to do an amazing thing.

Even if it couldn't be said to shock the entire kingdom, at least for a long time afterwards, the only topic of conversation in the old capital was what happened on this day.

But at such a juncture, the surrounding atmosphere is still so dull.

Everyone, including her, seemed to be on a spring outing.

But in fact, are these things really that easy?

Evanna didn't think so.

It's just that no matter whether today's plan succeeds or fails, all the burden and pressure are on Riber's body from the beginning to the end.

And the more Riber behaves the same as usual, the less everyone will be overwhelmed by worries.

In fact, Ewenna really wanted to join the conversation between Riber and John.She really wanted to say something like "I'm so nervous that my hands keep shaking" to get Riber's attention.

But sure enough, compared to getting Ribel's attention, Ewenna didn't want Ribel to put extra energy on her.In vain to comfort and appease her unshakable heart.

Moreover, Ewenna didn't think that she could intervene between Riber and John.

She still remembered that on the day of the performance, even though Riber was annoyed by John's words and his reason was on the verge of going berserk, his eyes were always bright.

To some extent, Riber is probably the same as John.They all loved the music from the bottom of their hearts and enjoyed playing it.

And this is the biggest difference between her and those two.

Even if she has mastered a piece of music with exhaustion, she may be remarkable in terms of talent.But she has never felt anything about the music itself.

She just made an effort to get closer to Riber with some "impure" purposes.

Moreover, at that time she was not very clear about her mood.Now that she has made it clear, she is unwilling to make such efforts again.

So, sometimes Evanna wonders.

Putting aside those entangled troubles and complicated status, would Riber want to become a pure performer?

It is also Riber who has poured too much enthusiasm into music.That's why, when it comes to those things, I become extra sensitive, care about my own playing, and care about others' evaluations.And because of my own lack of performance, I feel extremely sad.

Evanna felt that Riber was a person with very weak desires.Therefore, Ewenna never felt in him that he wanted to be the most powerful person in the kingdom, nor did she feel that he wanted to be the most powerful person in the world.

However, Ewenna felt more than once that Riber wanted to be a very good performer.

So, is it true that for Riber, the life John has lived so far is the life he expected?

Is John's future surrounded by lights on stage the ideal future?
