He Wei Ni Ya (4K)

The black liquid flowing through the sheet music and her veins was tearing Ariana's body apart, making her clearly feel the rapidly approaching Grim Reaper's Scythe.

The Note Secret Poison.

A spell that few people know about, but which isn't exactly top secret.

How could He Wei Ni Ya...?

Ariana suddenly thought of the boy Auger Aug, whom she looked down upon the most.

"The Lost Score!" Ariana roared at He Wei Ni Ya in her already distorted voice, "You're the one who had that little bastard bring it out of the library for you! But how dare he, it's... ahh!"

The excruciating pain tore at Ariana's nerves, abruptly stopping her from finishing her sentence.

The most important thing now is to quickly clear the toxins from the body.

Otherwise, she really would have died here!

Ariana immediately pulled out her staff and pointed it at her arm.

But before she could even begin to chant, the flesh on her arm rapidly swelled into a black cyst, which then immediately exploded.

The immense pain made it impossible for Ariana to concentrate. She screamed again and collapsed to her knees, then watched in horror as black cysts, like bubbles, began to emerge from her flesh, as if her entire body were being boiled.

This is clearly something that cannot be cleaned up.

"How many secret poisons did you plant?!" Ariana stared at He Wei Ni Ya with despair and resentment. "How dare you do this... Don't you know what the consequences are of planting secret poisons in the body?!"

The Note Secret Poison is a very special trap-triggered spell.

It is somewhat similar to "《Three Sounds · Graceful Dance》".

It needs to be triggered by someone "stepping" in.

However, the Note Secret Poison is even more extreme than the Dance, because it uses the caster's physical body as bait.

Moreover, once the secret poison is planted, it cannot be removed by oneself alone.

Because it essentially pollutes its own notes and scores into a toxic state, to remove its toxins, it needs to be completely extracted from the body and then cleaned.

Just like Ariana did to He Wei Ni Ya.

The problem is that extracting musical notes or scores is extremely dangerous; even the slightest mistake can cost you your life.

The secret poison accumulated within the musical notes will not remain dormant in the caster's body forever simply because no one triggers it.

Over time, the concentration of this secret poison will increase, eventually losing its stability and detonating directly within the caster's body.

In that case, even God couldn't save them.

He Wei Ni Ya not only planted the secret poison in her body, but also the largest amount of it, which is why it detonated immediately upon Ariana Ariana's body due to instability.

However, this dose of the secret poison can only maintain stability in the caster's body for a maximum of six months.

It's only for six months.

If it weren't Ariana who came tonight, and if she hadn't been able to extract the musical score from He Wei Ni Ya's body, then He Wei Ni Ya's life would have ended in six months.

"Why do you dare to do this?"

Ariana's voice trembled uncontrollably, whether from pain or fear, it was hard to tell.

As she watched He Wei Ni Ya slowly get up from the ground, she finally couldn't hold back and screamed hysterically.

"Why did you dare to go to this extent?!"

"Don't you know that this means you'll only live for six months!"

"Are you trying to kill yourself?!"

After hearing Ariana's words, Hevinia, who had stood up, slowly tilted her head, seemingly puzzled, and then began to seriously consider Ariana's question.

She,

Is this... a suicide attempt?

He Wei Ni Ya thought to herself.

No, it's not.

She shook her head.

She simply had to accomplish one thing.

This matter can be resolved in six months.

As for what will happen in six months, He Wei Ni Ya doesn't care.

Just because He Wei Ni Ya doesn't care doesn't mean Ariana doesn't care.

She is still trying every possible way to save herself, desperately trying to survive.

In the dark pus and blood, she groped for her staff and then poured healing spells into her body.

You can survive, you absolutely can survive.

She is the most talented and gifted professor in this college!

She knows the most spells and possesses the most private spellbooks!

Although she came from a commoner background and was only a silver-ranked person, she was no less capable than anyone else!

She just lacked an opportunity, a chance to prove herself!

This Grand Ceremony is her chance! She wants to prove herself before the great Lord of Holy Sound and those damned nobles, just like she did twenty years ago when she was the headmaster!

She too will play the Seven Sound Divine Song!

So.

She can't die here!

In the struggle, Ariana also tore her mage robes, revealing the musical notes she had been concealing—the silver scale notes of the pentatonic scale.

But it's not high-grade silver.

This is why Ariana has always been reluctant to show it to others. However, right now, the Gold Score and Golden Sound that she had so painstakingly seized are still entangled in the secret poison. The only thing she can mobilize is this original musical note that she despises.

Please.

Help me!

She raised her staff high, and healing spells rained down like a storm.

He Wei Ni Ya watched quietly from the side.

I don't know how much time has passed.

With a "bang".

Ariana's raised arm finally fell limply to her body, which had almost turned into pus.

The healing spells failed to save her waning life force, to the point that she could barely breathe.

He Wei Ni Ya limped up to Ariana and looked down at her former professor.

On Ariana's body, which was no longer human, the golden spectacle and music still shone as brightly as ever, completely untouched by the filth.

She stared blankly upwards, her eyes unfocused, it was hard to tell whether she was looking at the ceiling or at He Wei Ni Ya.

I don't know how much time passed before she slowly opened her mouth, her voice sounding like a broken accordion.

"I always thought... I would be the next principal..."

"I had considered that I might fail... that I might die at the hands of those nobles at the last moment, at the hands of the Primordial Two Great Families ... but I never expected this..."

She slowly closed her eyes.

"I will die by your hand."

In Ariana's extremely weak voice, her unwillingness was still undisguised.

He Wei Ni Ya didn't speak, but slowly bent down, her fingertips touching the Gold Score on Ariana's body.

The golden spectrum sensed its master's call and immediately flowed back into He Wei Ni Ya's body.

Upon sensing this, Ariana suddenly opened her eyes again and grabbed He Wei Ni Ya's wrist with her other hand.

But she wasn't trying to stop He Wei Ni Ya; she no longer had the ability. She simply said, "You just want to play the Seven Sound Divine Song, right? As long as you play the Seven Sound Divine Song and gain the Lord's approval, you'll be safe. But you shouldn't have a seven-tone melody, right? In that case, you can use mine!"

As if squeezing out the last bit of strength from her exhausted body, Ariana took out a bundle of parchment scrolls from her bosom with her other hand and stuffed them into He Wei Ni Ya's hand.

Just like a few days ago when she gave those low-pitched spells to He Wei Ni Ya.

But unlike other spells, this is a spell with seven notes.

"This is my Seven Sound Song, it's mine!" Ariana said. "It's my own creation, and I believe it's no worse than anyone else's, not even the Headmaster's 'The Roar' from twenty years ago. It's just missing someone to play it, just missing an opportunity... Please, help me. As long as I can play this piece at the Grand Ceremony, as long as I can prove that I'm no worse than those nobles, no worse than the original performers, no worse than anyone else, I'd rather die... it doesn't matter."

He Wei Ni Ya saw a last glimmer of hope in Ariana's previously unfocused eyes.

She could also sense the profound mystery contained within the parchment.

She then knew that this was indeed the Seven Sound Song, a true Seven Sound Song that would be considered a precious treasure even in the Primordial Family.

But.

"I refuse," He Wei Ni Ya said calmly.

Ariana's expression froze instantly.

"You... reject?" She thought she had misheard and murmured, "You're rejecting... the Seven Sound Song?"

He Wei Ni Ya did not answer again, but let go of her hand.

The Seven Sound Song that Ariana regarded as her spiritual pillar thus fell into the black blood.

Ariana stared blankly as the score became stained with blasphemous black, the exquisite music blurred and indistinct.

At that moment, she experienced the final outburst of her life.

"Why?! Why?!"

Why did you do this?!

"Without my music, how can you contend with the beginning for grace!"

"You worthless bastard from the Seed Zone! You idiot who can't even understand sheet music and rhythm! Do you know what you've destroyed?!"

He Wei Ni Ya didn't speak. By this time, she had completely retrieved the score, and Ariana no longer had the strength to hold her back.

At this moment, she was like an earthworm in the mud, writhing frantically, just to pick up the tainted sheet music.

But she failed.

Amidst those indistinct curses and regrets, the once elegant and learned professor finally fell silent, dying completely on the eve of the Seven Sound Festival.

In the final moments of her life, He Wei Ni Ya watched quietly from the side, her dark eyes revealing no emotion.

"That was truly amazing!"

She didn't know how much time had passed, but Bai Wei's voice lingered in He Wei Ni Ya's mind.

"To be honest, I thought I was going to have to change partners tonight."

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Visas," He Wei Ni Ya said softly.

She had also reached her limit.

Ariana and she were not even in the same league; the only way for her to defeat Ariana was through this method.

Thankfully, it was a success.

"You still refused to use my power until the very end," Bai Wei said with a smile. "In other words, you never believed from the beginning that the 'gift' I gave you was free, so you preferred to ruin your body like this rather than snap your fingers. It's really sad, considering I was being so sincere."

Bai Wei paused, then looked at the tainted sheet music in the distance.

"You even refused the free Seven Sound Song and refused to collaborate with me, so I'm really curious, He Wei Ni Ya, what exactly do you want to play at the Grand Ceremony?"

He Wei Ni Ya did not answer Bai Wei, but instead looked up at the wall clock.

There are only a few minutes left until the Seven Sound Festival.

In other words, she has already gotten through the most difficult night.

He Wei Ni Ya gently closed her eyes.

She wanted to lie down and rest immediately.

But she knew it wouldn't work.

Because she didn't want to appear weak in front of Bai Wei at this time.

Tonight's battle with Ariana is not just a battle for survival, but also an attitude she is conveying to Bai Wei.

In this world, she doesn't trust anyone and won't cooperate with anyone, whether that person is her teacher or the legendary Visas.

Because she was not afraid of death,

Therefore, no one can threaten her.

She doesn't need to rely on anyone.

He Wei Ni Ya thought to herself.

Bai Wei understood her meaning and chuckled, saying, "Not going to rely on anyone? Hehe..."

He Wei Ni Ya sensed a deeper meaning in Bai Wei's laughter, but she didn't have time to think about what that meaning was at the moment.

She should go back.

With that thought in mind, He Wei Ni Ya took one last look at Ariana's body and then turned and left.

As I reached the church entrance, the somber tolling of the bells signaled the end of the Silent Night.

The Seven Sound Festival has arrived.

In that instant, countless pre-set Magic Power cannons surged into the sky, turning the night into day.

This caused He Wei Ni Ya was used to the darkness, to instinctively raise her hand and shield her eyes.

The Silent Night has ended.

The sudden commotion gave He Wei Ni Ya, who had escaped death, a rare sense of peace and tranquility, as if she had been reborn.

But she knew she couldn't let herself get caught up in that feeling.

Tonight is not the end; she still has so much to do.

She has to go all the way.

He Wei Ni Ya couldn't stop her, Ayman couldn't stop her, Ariana couldn't stop her... and no one else could either.

Even Visas.

After savoring her last breath, a breath as fresh as new life, He Wei Ni Ya prepared to leave. The Seven Sound Festival couldn't stay at school; she had to leave immediately to avoid arousing suspicion.

But just then, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of her right palm and noticed that there were still some residual Magic Power on it, with tiny sparks still burning.

These were the flames used for surveillance; now only tiny sparks remain.

Just as He Wei Ni Ya was about to erase the last remnant of Magic Power, she suddenly discovered that one of the sparks was several times larger than the others.

Her pupils narrowed slightly, as if she had suddenly thought of something.

But it was too late.

The loud sound of fireworks masked the shrill whistling sound that cut through the air, and countless thin threads lurked beneath the light that turned the night sky into daylight.

By the time He Wei Ni Ya realized what was happening, her body had already been pierced by countless silver threads.

Including her heart.

He Wei Ni Ya's eyes widened as she watched the all-too-familiar figure emerge from beneath the fireworks, accompanied by four fully armed musicians.

"I originally thought that it would be that stupid woman Ariana who came out, but I didn't expect it to be you."

She smiled at He Wei Ni Ya with affection, just as she always did.

"Hervia~"

Take a break. There will be another chapter later, but don't wait. When I say there will be another chapter later, it usually means after 1 or 2 AM. I suggest you read it tomorrow morning.
