Cabin for two with Maid of Mond

From the place on the side of the cliff where the two of Toth were, there was the sound of music playing. Not only did Feng Feng hear it, but Mavin Mara at the top of the cliff also turned his head slightly.

Feng froze for a moment, and the image in his mind disappeared temporarily.

—Ah, yes, they just said that.

——So you really want to play?

——Really, Toth, you can’t do it!

——I thought you were a real man even though you were young. I was so disappointed. I’m afraid I’ll have to teach you the key to a man’s aggressive attack next time.

—Aren’t you worse than Young Master Goethe over there?Girls come out to look at the stars with you, don't they really just want to look at the stars!

——Young people just don't understand, of course such a good time should be used to make out with each other, but they actually played the piano there?Music or something, aren't the bards in the city playing every day?

——At such a time, the whole person should press directly on it!

Feng's one-person cross talk in his head changed his position, completely ignoring the contradiction with the previous inner voice.

Anyway, whatever you think in your heart, no one cares.

——If Toth can play some music that destroys the atmosphere, Ma Wen will lose his mood and leave early, it would be doing me a favor.

——But it’s impossible to think about it, playing in this situation must also be affectionate...

——Sure enough, the melody is not too strong...

--Um?no, the music...

Feng listened to the music and raised his head slightly.

He just stood like this for a while, then moved a few steps, folded his arms, and leaned against the nearby stone.

Unknowingly, whether it is the previous rich imaginary picture or the lively voice of self-dissolution, it has faded into nothing.

Only, pure listening.

The music fluttering on the Cliff of Picking Stars does not really spoil the atmosphere, but it cannot be said that it is so suitable for the atmosphere that is close to the love of couples.

This tune, melodious, ethereal...

……sad.

Although it is not a particularly heavy tragic song, it does have a lingering sense of melancholy.

Or in other words, remember.

This is not the kind of reminiscence of a lost love, but something else...

"what……"

Feng let out a light and long sigh.

Involuntarily, he remembered the past.

Although he is a mercenary now, when he was young, he used to do things like an adventurer.

Visit mysterious ruins and find unknown mysteries that have been forgotten in ancient times.

He sat by the campfire with his companions at that time, looking at the ruins and walls, thinking about the ancient civilizations of the past...

That's right, this piece of music deduces exactly this kind of situation, right?Not an expedition, nor a direct elaboration of the image of a lost civilization, but a melody dedicated to that -- the splendor that once existed.

"...Sure enough, it's an outlandish performance."

Feng whispered to himself, but he no longer had the rich emotions of the previous inner voice.

When he turned his head to look at the backs of Marvin and Mara, Feng felt a little more complacent.

——Master Goethe couldn't understand the real meaning of this kind of music.

——But, it doesn't matter.

——The music is nice, just listen to it.

If it weren't for the duty of standing guard, Feng really wanted to close his eyes and listen attentively.

……

……

Noelle has no such concerns about things that the mercenary uncle cannot achieve due to his duties.

The silver-haired girl who was immersed in the music at close range had already squinted and closed her eyes involuntarily.

But she didn't keep her eyes closed.

In addition to listening to the music, the picture in front of her is also what she likes to see.

On the edge of the cliff, facing the sea breeze, the young man raised his hands slightly, and there were green light spots around him.

Seen from the lower height where the girl is sitting, this picture seems to be reflected in the night sky, as if it is really like the name of the place - picking up the stars.

Thoth didn't play it himself, but the sound of music is still played by him.

Using the same principle as the weapon deformation technology, the various alchemy musical instruments carried here have been shrunk down, and now they surround and float around Thoth.

It is the wind that really plucks and strikes the strings.

When the music sounded, today's trip was already a great success.

But Noelle didn't rush to celebrate, but quietly enjoyed this piece of music from another world.

She had heard Toth say the name of the song.

"Glorious City Withered"

Three volumes and 36 chapters

Excluding the unscrupulous theater in the head of the black dog mercenary front, and a small part of the misunderstanding between Marvin and Mara...

Toth and Noelle's trip to the Star Cliff still has a clear mission goal.

There are two items.

A smaller, incidental task is to pick a few Cecilia flowers.

This kind of pure white flower that has a strong affinity with the wind element is a specialty of the Xingxingya area.Alchemy has a few uses, but in Toth's hut, there is a more unique use...

Noelle has already picked the required amount, carefully wrapped it up and put it away.

The other main task is the research of mass-produced magic instruments.

The original production of the Fatiru version of the magic instrument was to attract elemental elves wandering in the wild with music, and figure out the music style that each elf prefers.

As long as the elemental spirit is satisfied with the music, it will leave a special token with mana magic power, which is equivalent to calling a new elemental spirit to settle in the item, which can be used to make new magic instruments.

Toth originally thought that Tivat had another set of elemental magic power mechanism, so the old method could not be used, and a new solution needed to be studied from scratch.

But Lord Fengshen gave a suggestion.

Toth's research on magic musical instruments is entirely based on the direction of alchemy technology. Previously, the main object of discussion was only sugar, and Wendy was not specifically asked.

However, whether as the patron saint of Mond or a bard, Wendy is naturally interested in magical instruments.

When Wendy heard about the original working method of the magic instrument and the bottleneck of Toth's current research, the poet smiled.

A faint smile that seemed to miss some memories.

——Why did you decide that the elemental spirits in Tivat couldn't do the same thing?

—Maybe you can try it.

——Don't mention other elements, at least I can guarantee... the wind will be willing to try to play.

Toth already knew that Tivat also had the concept of elemental spirits, and its form was specious with elemental life such as wind crystal butterflies. For example, the "wind seed" used in the "wind bottle" technology is a typical example.

The wind seeds were originally Thoth's research material. Toth had judged the limitations of its use form, so he did not continue to focus on the elemental spirits, but only on the elemental energy itself.

Under Wendy's suggestion, Thoth opened up his mind and sought the help of a more pure "wind".

The existence of Tevat elemental spirits is more extensive than Toth thought, and the wind seed is just an example that is easier to identify.

Therefore, Toth regained Fatiru's existing technology and combined it with the Tivat alchemy knowledge he had learned so far to complete a batch of musical instruments that applied weapon transformation technology and brought them to the location recommended by Wendy.

Picking Star Cliff.

——Actually, I had planned that if I got back the zither of the sky, I would find an opportunity to call Twalin to the Star Picking Cliff.

——The wind there can spread my words farther, and it should also give me more comfort.

——And... If it really doesn't go well, at least it can prevent Twarin from attacking the city on the spot.

——But now... Well, it's not just the problem of the zither from the sky being stolen, it's also hard for me to perceive Twalin's situation.

—Although Twarin hasn't appeared for a while, I can at least be sure that his pain is still blowing in the wind, and Mond's air current is still turbulent.

——Hey, don't worry, I'll figure it out.Just do your research!I am looking forward to your achievements, maybe in the future I can learn from the uncle in your hometown who has a bird’s nest on his head, and I don’t have to play it myself when singing poems!

——Although I can do similar things myself, hehe~

then.

The scene of Fatiru once reappeared on the continent of Tivat.

As a rock element user, Thoth shouldn't be able to drive the wind element.

But at this moment, on the instruments that floated beside him and played the melody by themselves, one after another, the turquoise light spots of the wind really wandered along with Toth's thoughts.

Thoth's own God's Eye was not used either.

The barriers of elemental energy were broken through.

It is still far away from success, if any passer-by—for example, pull the three people nearby—try to use it, there will be no movement at all.

Moreover, the current magic instruments are really just instruments for playing music with magic, and have no effect as weapons.

But there is no doubt that a big step has been taken on the road of research.

Today, the grassland on the side of Star Picking Cliff.

The melodious music has been played for a round, Toth temporarily stopped controlling, the invisible elves of the wind scattered away, and the sound of the cyclone seemed to have a slight laugh.

Toth sat down on the grass and sighed in satisfaction.

Noelle put her hand on the grass, and leaned towards Toth, her eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.

"It was successful."

"Yeah, now many problems have been solved, and the progress of the research has become clear."

Then, I was speechless for a while.

It's not embarrassment without words, but tacitly looking at the waves of the ocean, sharing a moment of tranquility.

After a while, Toth spoke slowly again.

"However, these musical instruments now are just musical instruments, and what they play is musical art... But in the future, I will turn all these into lethal power and turn them into weapons for battle. I don't know, the spirit of the wind can still I can’t cooperate as happily as before.”

Noelle's complexion darkened as he listened, and he opened his mouth, unable to speak.

She, who was just immersed in the music, thought that all the wonderful things would be developed towards the battle, and wondered if this was blasphemy in some sense.

however……

"Lord Fengshen understands, and He still guides us to continue our research." Noelle said.

Toth also nodded and said, "Yeah, I can probably guess how the poet would answer—the color of a thousand winds already contains cruelty... Hey, anyway, no matter what you talk about, you can use wind as an example. "

"Hehe, it's Lord Fengshen after all." Noelle chuckled, and said softly: "No matter which world you are in, wonderful things will never be completely separated from the cruel and sad reality? Even... …sometimes more as one.”

Toth said nothing, just nodded slightly.

Noelle asked again: "The piece just now was played by Mr. Toth for the first time. When you practiced in the workshop before, it seemed that all you played was Mond's music?"

"Yeah, just like the knowledge of alchemy, I also require myself to actively adapt to the music. As for the previous songs, I am used to playing with magic instruments. One person is a band, so I only revisit it now. Fortunately, I should Not too unfamiliar?"

"Very nice." Noelle nodded with great certainty. "You said that song is called - the glorious city withered, right? Just listening to it, I feel like I'm really walking in a beautiful and sad ancient city."

"So touching? Then I can be considered worthy of the person who taught this song, and that glorious city."

Noelle watched Thoth silently for a moment.

"So, the [Brilliant City] in the song title actually exists, and you have also visited it?"
