Chapter 1543 – The Sky I Created
Unlike ordinary buildings, it is not carved out of rock, but large and small stones are piled up, and various flowers are decorated on top of them. A building that looks like a temple.
This unusual building was the performance hall of the Faculty of Arts at the Frunard Academy.
After the establishment of the Faculty of Arts. Renea created this performance hall with the advice of the elves, and perhaps because of this, it was so full of spirit power that spirits could sometimes be seen. Even though it is a rare building that is hard to find anywhere, this concert hall is also practical.
Theater. Sing. Video. Feat. It has the amazing ability to change shape depending on the type of performance being performed, and thanks to the magic of space expansion, it can accommodate up to thousands of people.
Renea can build as many buildings as she wants, so if she has to, she will build a building that can accommodate several times that amount.
Since this building did not have an official name, it was given the name of the Stage Director of the Faculty of Arts among students at the Frunard Academy.
About this stage. Close to 200 people were flocking in.
“Wow…!”
“Those people…!”
Students scheduled to enter the Faculty of Arts, as well as lineage members of each department. In other words, even noble students opened their eyes wide.
Each one of those 200 people was a truly sad master in the field of art.
There were many people who came from places as far away as the Earth from the floating island.
I guess. It seemed as if they had brought in all the artistic masters from around the world.
The students looked at the passing artists with longing eyes, all exuding unique elegance. This is unusual for Frunar Academy students, who usually receive longing looks.
“Wow. Did you invite all those people?”
“Willemg’s instructor network is amazing…”
A hot topic that has been heating up Frunar Academy for a while. A duel between the Faculty of Arts instructors and students.
A clash between performances prepared by instructors who say that eight days are not necessary and performances by students who say that there is no reason to learn without eight days.
The opera of ‘The Sky I Made’.
Tonight. 7 o’clock. The battle comes to a conclusion.
Students from the bloodline faction, who are rich and seek fame, have an endless desire to watch, but unfortunately, except for a very small number of students, they cannot see this match.
It is not a performance, but a competition to determine the winner, and those 200 people are not just spectators but judges.
The Faculty of Arts instructors, who were looking down at the crowd of art practitioners from the high floor of the Department of Arts’ main building, smiled and gave Count Willemg a thumbs up.
“Hey, Instructor Willemg. Aren’t you using too much force?”
Hehe.”
Willemg just laughed at the respect-filled gaze of the faction.
At that time. One instructor voiced dissatisfaction.
“It’s difficult if you feel like you’ve already won. You know that, right? They’re never on our side.”
Although he belonged to the Willemg faction, he was a proud instructor who had no interest in the influence of the powerful Willemg and didn’t like the idea that he was nothing without an eight-year-old.
Originally, there were a lot of eccentric people among those working in the arts, so the instructors thought so.
Furthermore. It was also true.
Willemg agreed.
“It doesn’t matter. They are fair.”
Those who invited us with all their capabilities are people with their own unique artistic views and thoughts.
Because they are such people, I used my energy to sing them.
If it is not evaluated by the right people, even Lenea will not acknowledge it.
“The students also put in a lot of effort. Didn’t I hear that Ae-kyung Han was in charge of directing? I heard she even prepared silk clothes for the spirit.”
“Huh. The legendary clothes for the biggest star? They spent a lot of money thinking that someone might be from the Hart family.”
“Maybe the silk clothes were brought by the Dre instructor’s squire. They say he is such a great spiritist that he is said to be the first in history.”
The budget size of students is no less than that of instructors. No. Rather, it overflows.
They can never think that they will lose in skill.
If we lose once in a million or in a billion times, it will be because of the power of capital.
“Don’t worry.”
Willemg smiled meaningfully.
“They committed a foul by inviting Han Ae-kyung, so we also took some action.”
How many? The instructors tilted their heads. I’m sure he wouldn’t have used such cowardly means, so he thought it was just an expression of his confidence.
“Besides, don’t we have a star no less than Han Ae-kyung?”
At the end of Willemg’s words. The door opens and ‘Juyeon’ walks in.
A pure Elunarian and a major star called a ‘singing girl’.
She showed such enthusiasm for this performance that she dyed her brilliant blonde hair black, and she was so beautiful that it left people completely amazed, and she gave off an air that seemed somewhat ephemeral.
Even though she was not acting, her instructors were overwhelmed by the aura she gave off.
“Hello, everyone.”
“Welcome, Chirone.”
One of the biggest stars in the current art world, both in name and reality, touring around the world. Chirone.
She is usually a lively person.
This transience. She staged it on purpose.
An act that combines natural talent and hard work that, even though you know it, you have no choice but to suffer.
Willemg asked, smiling under the overwhelming light of the star.
“Are you confident?”
“Yes, of course.”
She felt a strong sense of competition with Han Ae-kyung.
Although Han Ae-kyung is weak, she is evaluated as superior to her.
Considering her image as a bad stranger, this is truly amazing.
She thought she would win someday.
Chirone thought that she would definitely be the lead in this performance, so she took on the job.
‘However. The main character is a stranger whose name I have never heard of. Are you going to direct?’
The main character is instructor Dre’s friend?
I tried not to, but I couldn’t help but laugh.
‘The 200 people called by Count Willemg are all great masters of the art world. I’m sure Dre is going to give them a thumbs up as a reward for her friends.’
They appointed Han Ae-kyung as director, so they can save face.
It’s so shallow.
And Han Ae-kyung, who matched that shallowness, was disgusting.
‘I will flatten your nose.’
Even though she knew she was coming out, she dared to give her a sense of defeat as she was satisfied with her direction.
Willemg smiled bitterly, satisfied with Cirno’s more enthusiastic appearance than ever.
“This. I can never lose.”
“You cowardly bastards!!”
El, who had spewed out a dangerous level of verbal abuse for a daughter of a famous family, was striding off to somewhere with lights all over her. Gold quickly grabbed her shoulder.
“Don’t let go?!?!”
“There are so many other people, so what are you talking about to the head of the family? L.”
“Won’t you let go?!?!”
“Just adding this isn’t enough. In the first place. Isn’t that just you’re reasoning?”
How can we be certain that the disappearance of the fairy’s clothes was the work of the Willemg faction?
“I don’t know anything else, but they are the ones who arbitrarily decided on the performance order, right? Yo!!”
“That’s true.”
“Hey Mr.!!!”
El stamped her foot in exasperation.
When they saw that, the students in the art department who said ‘Instructor Dre, please come back…’ Were intimidated.
The Willemg faction’s performance begins first. This has a bigger impact than you think.
The performance time is never short, about an hour.
In addition, the content of the performance is ‘the same.’
If you’re watching the same content twice, there’s no way you won’t feel tired.
Furthermore. The better the Willemg faction’s performance, the higher the audience’s expectations.
Even considering that the 200 audience members are critics with solemn eyes, they are also human beings.
I’m already very anxious, but an important item has disappeared.
The morale of the students at the Faculty of Arts was noticeably depressed.
“They are sincere too.”
Clarir, who had been watching El’s rampage, froze her feet and sighed.
“Uh…! Hey, hey. Clarir! Release this!!”
“Please stay still for a moment. I’m thinking.”
Even so, the quality of the instructors’ performances is higher than that of the students.
Of course.
The students at Frunar Academy are geniuses. If it is a school full of geniuses who must prove their talent to be admitted, the instructors are the final growth of those geniuses.
“Gold. Can’t we find a replacement?”
“Even so, I asked Lena, who is loved by the spirits, to ask for it… But the silk clothes of the spirits are not clothes made by the spirits.”
The clothes that were lost were special clothes made only for humans, made by spirits and humans together.
Spirits originally had no concept of making clothes. That’s why the clothes are even rarer.
There is a spirit crown and clothes given to Lena from the Holy Land of the Wind, but they are only for Lena.
For Lena’s exclusive use. Physically, it cannot be used by others.
“Ha!! That’s funny. Do you think we’re going to lose? There’s no way the performance of guys who use such cowardly means will be great, right?”
Elle crossed her arms and spoke confidently.
That moment. Wow… A loud shout was heard from the stage far away in the waiting room.
“…200 people?”
Considering the size of the building and the performance of the soundproof walls, it is safe to say that he shouted at the top of his voice.
It is shocking to think that those 200 people are stubborn artists who always keep their heads upright.
Palyu, who was watching the performance in real time through the eyes of a spirit, let out a nervous voice.
“… It’s enormous.”
Props. Acoustics. Performance. Production. Screenplay.
No matter what you look at, it is a performance worthy of being called the best of all time.
The usually blunt critics did not hold back on their admiration.
“Willemg sharpened the knife. Sharpened the knife.”
“Chiron. It’s really ripe…”
“Ha… Something great like this should be done during the hero’s rest.”
Hero’s Rest is the dream stadium that every artist would like to perform there at least once.
It is also famous as a place where ten heroes often visited, so it was given the name Hero’s Rest.
It is a truly symbolic place that cannot be performed simply by being famous; it requires ‘achievements’.
The quality of a performance in such a place is… Literally the highest praise.
“Ah…”
El grabbed her forehead.
The thoughts of victory disappeared from her mind, and the realistic thought of how she would pressure them from now on came to mind.
What. Lenea is also on this side.
If you use the power of Greize. Those old guys…
Ae ae ae ang-!!
Everyone clutched their ears to the loud noise that seemed to amplify the sound of a plate breaking.
I was startled and looked for the source of the sound, and a male student holding a magic tool that looked similar to a guitar grinned.
“Everyone. What are you scared of?”
He is. He said with a confident smile that reminded me of Dre.
“We are doing much better.”
Everyone was silent and looked at the unknown man.
Clarir ah. And I remembered his name.
Obviously. Was it ‘Lira’ who protested to Willemg?
‘… Hmm?’
It was Clary Le who protested to Bill Rumg, she herself.
… No. Did he protest once more after that?
He is an ordinary man who looks soft on the outside, but he seems to be full on the inside.
That moment.
“Get ready.”
Everyone’s attention was focused on the small but clear voice.
She was Han Ae-kyung.
She was waiting for everyone to quiet down and then thanked Lyra with her eyes for changing her mood. She spoke calmly.
“Don’t doubt it.”
Because we are the ones who win.
Waaaaa-!!
The Willemg faction’s performance has ended.
When Cirno greets her in the middle of the stage, she is greeted with thunderous applause.
Solemn critics are as happy as ordinary spectators.
‘I won.’
Cirno smiled in remorse.
I can’t lose this.
She was right.
Critics thought they didn’t want to see the next performance.
I wanted to go to bed with this lingering feeling.
Due to their profession in the arts, they have no choice but to see numerous performances, and they are thirsty for scenes that resonate with their hearts.
They want a shock that will make their hearts turn to paper when they hear that they are geniuses.
Now. I was shocked.
Cirno’s water rose. At this moment, I have grown once again and reached the highest level.
Artists hoped that the lingering feeling of meeting a new genius comparable to Han Ae-kyung would continue.
But this is a thing. You have to do it right.
However. As the students worried, their standards have become higher and their standards have become more stringent.
Haaaaah don’t I not?
The scene on stage shimmered like a mirage.
“Hoo. Is this the magic on this stage?” “It’s mysterious.”
The Department of Arts’ stage director’s unique function was activated, and the stage setting changed in just one minute.
The artists who saw the performance evaluated it by stroking their chins.
“Hmm…”
“That’s a passing grade.”
They said they received support from the Hart family, so the capital was good.
It is a stage where you can feel elegance without any clumsiness.
However, the performers came out in droves. The faces of the acting students were tense.
It was worth it.
Those in the audience are all famous artists.
There are countless great seniors in front of you. How could I not be nervous after seeing such a great performance?
You may be hesitant to show your level in front of literally the best in the world.
Jaaaaang-!!
An ear-splitting sound rang.
Lyra strums her guitar once again and grins.
She was smiling.
‘Hoo.’
‘Did you relieve the tension?’
‘He must be nervous too, he feels like a leader.’
The gaze of the 200 people softened slightly as they felt like they were seeing the main character in a story somewhere.
The students’ tension also eased due to the sudden foolish behavior.
That moment. The stage became dark.
Sssss.
It’s raining.
Rain created by a magical illusion was falling all the way to the audience.
From the stage, various places in the human world were reflected as if one person was looking at them.
It was the part where the water spirit inspected the human world.
This is also magic. And it was produced in a surprisingly sophisticated manner thanks to the power of mechanical devices.
“It’s pretty good.”
“Hmm.”
However, the audience’s reaction was lukewarm.
This is definitely great.
Props too. Directing too. Sound too. Acting too. The word student doesn’t come to mind at all. A flash of genius that far surpasses that of skilled artists. In addition, I can feel the young blood.
But that’s it.
The great masters of the past. Compared to the instructors’ skills. It is true that it is impossible to achieve.
Critics knew that the Willemg faction had the advantage.
If we split it into different days, we would perform with the same content on the same day. The backstage performance is bound to be disadvantageous.
However, even considering the sympathy votes, the Willemg faction was superior.
What’s left? Acting and actors.
But…
‘I wouldn’t know if Han Ae-kyung were the lead role.’
‘I wonder if there is any actor who can compare to the grown Cirno…’
And. An actor playing the role of a water spirit appeared.
A woman with girl-like black hair who is so beautiful that it catches your attention for a moment.
Her pronunciation was clear and clear. Her movements were fluid, and she showed definite moderation in scenes that required strength.
“Oh.”
“That’s amazing…”
I can’t believe we didn’t know about this actor. I had the skills to think so.
A smile appeared on the judges’ lips.
But. That’s not satisfaction.
It was due to the feeling of helplessness that he was trying to compare himself to Cirno to this extent.
It’s great, but that’s a typical actor’s story.
It is not suitable for this stage.
‘Probably… This was the trend of the eight-year-old instructor.’
‘He’s quite a stranger!’
‘There was a rumor that you were connected to Han Ae-kyung and Yeo Dre, so you have skills.’
However. After all, it cannot be compared to Cirno.
The students became more and more intimidated by the calmness and coldness of the audience.
A month of hard work was the only driving force that kept their bodies moving.
In the middle of that bloody and cold stage. Yerin performed her role like a machine.
Count Willemg, who was watching the performance with his arms folded, exclaimed. He snorted.
“You’re mentally strong!”
How can you act properly in this situation? He was a talent I wanted to nurture.
Cirno… Tsk. He clicked his tongue
‘Aekyung. ‘Did you trust that kid?’
I’m just at that level. I thought it could be compared to Cirno. Are you saying they sent me to the lead role?
‘Did you underestimate me? Or are your eyes dead?’
Either way, it was difficult to tolerate.
Did Han Ae-kyung really think that that kid could compete against Cirno?
‘Or not. Are you good at singing?’
This play is an opera.
A song that expresses one’s feelings is a very important element.
Finish. The situation in the play is also the part where the water spirit receives permission from the queen and is about to go to the human world.
Since it is a historical and popular story, ‘The Sky I Made’ has been used in many performances. This is also where many directors use dramatic direction.
Since this is a scene where the water spirit expresses a hopeful future, strength had to be given.
In this part. Other actors disappeared behind the stage.
In a dark world, only Seo Ye-rin stands in the middle.
Her throat cleared.
The song begins.
‘Show me how good you are.’
How well you did.
Who dared to think of confronting me…
That moment.
The tone exploded.
