Little Theater Performance
What piece of music is this?
"I feel like my spirits have improved."
"Interesting, is this an effect from the song?"
"So what if you're feeling better! Didn't you notice? This is a completely new musical style! What we're appreciating is the creation of a brand new musical style!"
"..."
Linsey and Wala Wala's collaboration has ended.
Thunderous cheers erupted from the audience, along with shouts of disbelief and astonishment.
Wala Wala looked at the scene before her, her expression a mixture of emotions.
She decided to retire from the stage a long time ago.
As I bask in the thunderous applause once again, it's hard to express my feelings.
Linsey's condition is even more delicate.
It's unclear whether the public performance was a success or if the current situation fulfilled other conditions.
In short, the words "[Rhythm Game]" appear on the Attribute Panel.
That's when things changed.
[Rhythm Game Module 1→2]
[BGM: After this skill is activated, the corresponding music already included in the Sheet Music will be played according to the player's actual situation.]
Note: "Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin, naal ok zin los vahriin" "What can I say?" "がいるだけでどれほど chest がったでしょう" "This was a triumph. I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS."]
"..."
The moment Linsey saw this skill, she had an idea.
The background music (BGM) complements the Story Performance.
These two skills from different modules, when combined, will surely create some very interesting visuals.
However, this is something Linsey needs to handle.
Or these enthusiastic audience members in the theater right now.
Even if these people are not the best actors and audience members at the Fimbul Theater.
But the excellent appreciation skills cultivated in the City of a Thousand Sails have also made people understand what modern music performance means in this city.
"Call--"
"Linsey, let's continue."
Wala Wala had said she wouldn't be performing anymore, so Linsey was thinking about how to leave the stage.
But at that moment, the girl gently tugged at his sleeve:
"Such passionate music shouldn't be just for us to hear; everyone should enjoy this beautiful melody."
Wala Wala's expression was a little awkward.
She once declared that she would leave the stage forever, and naturally she didn't want to break that declaration.
But it stems from an artist's most basic principle of sharing.
She understands that this trendy, more direct emotional music should be disseminated and appreciated.
So Wala Wala forced herself to stay on stage.
Linsey saw through Wala Wala's determination.
He naturally had no questions, so he simply said:
"Are you sure everything's okay?"
Wala Wala nodded deeply and said:
"No problem, just this once!"
Linsey said he understood, and then turned to the audience and said loudly, "Ladies and gentlemen, singing takes a lot of energy, so please allow us to rest for a few minutes before continuing the performance!"
"..."
"Good!"
"One more song!"
"This is my biggest takeaway from the Art Festival!"
"Anyone who didn't see this performance is facing the biggest regret of their life!"
Cheers crashed onto the stage like waves.
Linsey quickly grabbed Wala Wala and led her backstage.
They certainly didn't desert their posts, but Wala Wala didn't know many of those modern songs.
So backstage, Linsey started giving the emergency girl extra lessons.
The two played music quietly and recited the lyrics.
With the help of skills perfectly suited to the occasion, preparations for the next piece of music were quickly completed.
Before going on stage, Linsey asked with concern:
"Wala Wala, can you really handle such an intense song?"
Wala Wala nodded confidently. "I'm a professional singer, just wait and see my performance!"
The two returned to the stage of the theater.
After a few minutes of rest, more people were called over by friends and family, and one-third of the seats in the theater were filled.
Linsey herself acted as the announcer:
"Next up is the song ' Dragon Fist '!"
Thump thump thump—
It starts with two fast-paced drumbeats.
The stirring rhythm immediately broke the silence in the theater.
Linsey's drumming skills are only average, but he has the help of his [Game Player] skills.
When teaching the lyrics of "Wala Wala".
He also saved the melody in the Sheet Music. When he used his skill to play it briefly, the newly unlocked [BGM] skill naturally brought out the music perfectly.
Although the melody doesn't carry those unique skill effects.
But this time, the performance was led by the background music (BGM), and without the influence of the "Ruthless Player," it presented the effect it was meant to be.
"Northeast of Dunhuang,"
"This nation's coastline is shaped like a bow!"
"..."
The performance of "Dragon Fist" was even more amazing than that of "Counting Stars".
A groundbreaking melody, a powerful and compact tune.
All of this was perfectly presented by Wala Wala using her singing skills, with strong emotions permeating her voice, keeping the listener on the edge of their seat.
When the song ended, some people even stood up high from their chairs.
They wildly waved their hands to release the surging emotions in their hearts.
This also perfectly echoes the effect of Dragon Fist.
[Dragon Fist - When the listener's actions align with heroic deeds, the attack effect of the punch is greatly enhanced.]
Among the audience, many were still discussing the peculiarity of the melody. "It's a completely new melody. Is it in the same style as the song we just sang?"
"I don't know, I don't know!"
"You... I've never heard of needing a professional critic to determine their category, have you?"
Besides studying the melody, some people are also paying attention to the meaning of the lyrics. "Where is Dunhuang?"
What kind of river is the Yellow River? And what kind of river is the Yangtze River?
"Dragon bloodline? Time and space? Is the hero in the lyrics an heir to some powerful Dragon Beast?"
"I kind of want to go see that world; it must be an exciting adventure!"
"..."
on stage.
Wala Wala was also sweating after her intense performance.
The girl's chest heaved.
She performed the two songs perfectly, and her enthusiasm was fully aroused, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
"Linsey, keep going! I want more!"
Linsey nodded. "Don't worry, I have plenty of songs here."
"Even if you sing all day long, it won't end!"
Linsey turned to look at the audience.
The people of the City of a Thousand Sails were all united in their emotions. Even he was deeply moved, his heart pounding. "Gentlemen, please wait a moment!"
"Let's get ready a bit more, there will be a new song performed in a few minutes!"
"..."
Linsey and Wala Wala returned to the backstage area.
The girl didn't even consider sitting down this time.
She stood there, panting, and asked Linsey with great enthusiasm, "Linsey, what do we sing next?"
"Is it the kind that's full of vigor and hope, or the kind that's brimming with passion?"
Upon hearing this, Linsey smiled nostalgically.
After the two pieces, one Chinese and one foreign, were played.
He planned to add a personal touch this time, so he announced the song title for the next song, "Next, I'll teach you 'One Last Kiss'."
"It sounds absolutely wonderful!"
